BUSCH Christensen.

A quiet but romantic wedding took place
in the Danish Lutheran Church, Hoboken,
n. J., on Wednesday last. The contracting
parties were Mr.. August Busck, of the we'll
known and popular firm of Pennock & Co.,
aud Miss Wilhelmina NJ. Christensen, of
Denmark. The bride, who had just crossed
the Atlantic under the care of her soon-to-
be brother-in-law. Mr.. Busck, an officer OF
the Danish steamer Heckls, was met On her
arrival at New York by the groom and
cousins OF his residing in New York. In a
short time the whole party adjourned to the
church, where the ceremony was performed
by the Rev. A. C. Tychsan, of Denmark
After an elegant dinner at the hotel the
bride and groom were rendered a reception
on board the S. 5. Heckla by the officers Of
that vessel.
The bride and groom having received
thorough literary and scientific training in
one of the first European universities, the
new partnership just entered upon by Mr..
Busck strikes one as having been begun
under the most suspicious circumstances.

nenlh Of We. samuel ". strider.

The death of this estimable lady occurred
at the family residence on West Burke Stu
Martinsburg. Monday night, August 10
For many years Mrs. Strider had resided at
Potomac Heights, near Harper's Ferry,
where she bad endeared herself to many
friends who were 10th to part with her,
when a few months ago the family removed
to the adjoining town of Martinsburg.
The news of Mrs. Strider's death was not
altogether unexpected, as her intense SUI
ferings in this last illness, gave little hopes
of recovery. Her remains were brought to
Harper's Ferry on Wednesday, p, and in-
TERED by the side Of her beloved son Ran
dolpb Strider. The funeral services were
conducted by her pastor, Rev. S. W. Cole,
of Charles Town, assisted by DR.. Woods, OF
the Presbyterian Church, Martinsburg, and
Rev. Mr.. Campbell, of Berkeley Springs
The large number Of friends who attended
the funeral in Martinsburg, aud the inter-
ment ut Bolivar Cemetery was a fitting tes-
timonial to the high esteem in which this
elect lady was held.
In all the relations of life Mrs. Strider
was a most exemplary wOman-one could

her own roof. without thinking Of the words
