HERE'S A FINE POINT.
Can . Clergyman Marry Himself and Thus
Save the Fee?


"There are some curious things in
the law books" said gray-bearded law
yer to a Memphis Commercial reporter
as they came down the courthouse
steps. "It is settled law that a clergy
man may perform the ceremony at his
own marriage when none is present but
himself and his bride, and upon the
most solemn Judgment fixing the legiti-
macy OF the offspring and the descent Of
the estate.
''Rev. Samuel Swayne Beamish was
clergyman of the united churches of
England and Ireland, and on the 9th
day of November, 1882, be went to the
house OF Anne Lyons, in the city OF
Cork. and there performed the ceremony
OF marriage between himself and lsa-
bella Frazer, using the form of the Book
of Common Prayer, but adapting the
words to the unique condition Of the az.
fair, and using also the wedding ring.

the wedding all 20 themselves, but

Good Luck.

Missionaries and others, who live year after
year in foreign countries, are liable to lose
something OF their familiarity with their ma
tive tongue, and sometimes to be troubled
about the spelling of very common words.
An English clergyman, who was also q
voluminous author, was in Paris, where he
made the acquaintance of a kind hearted
Scottish nobleman. This man had lived for
many years at the French capital, and knew
every one. The Engishman quite enjoyed
walking with him in the Champs Elysees. AZ

When go home, when go home to himi

OF greeting me, and what his lips shall say
And mine reply; and will his eyes be dim
With mist of joy tears? Will my coming be
AS dear boon to him as he has dreamed?
Will all the glad bewildernent that seemed
So sweet in fancy find its verify
When come home: Or will some fancied change
OF speech or look or ulien the one transform
Who used to wear for him nameless charm.
Tempering his joy with shadows new and strange!
With shadows darkling for a little space,
And then, O. swee: beyond imagining,
The cadences, half sob, half song, will ring
With the old music, hallowing the place.
My glad heart has no room in it for doubt
Tne morning glorieS clambering at the door,
With leaves and blooms and tendrils leaning per,
Flecking the sunshine, cannot keep it out.

That shall be mine upon that day of days,
The old endearing names and tricks of phrase,
And smiles that haunted all my reveries.
II rain or sunshine be, or gloom or gleam,
The day of my return, sweet opulence
OF giadness, flooding mood and circumstance,
Shall smile across the msts with roseate beam.
When go home again. When go homel

To the old haunts; always my fancies come

And find forever there their paradise,
