Old Marriage Customs.

The ancient marriage ceremonies of
the church were divided into the be
trothal and the nuptials. The essen
tiaIs of the betrOthal were the ring, the
dowry. the joining of hands and the
yelling, while those of the nuptials COM
prised the obIation, or fee, the kiss, the
benediction, and the erowning. These
ceremonies are carefully observed in
the Syrian, Coptic and other eastern
churches
The silly elstom Of the priest tax
ing the first kiss from the bride is both
unseemly and treverent. The man
should kiss his wife as soon as the eere-
mony is over and the priest and his
clerks should reverently retire to the
vestry.
In the Church Of England. as soon as
the service is over, the wedding party
retires to the vestFy and there record
their names in the marriage register,
the bride, strange TO relate. signing her
maiden name once more and for the
last time. IL is then that signal is
given 10 the belfry and the church
bells ring out their marriage chimes. -
