the Judge had tied the knot in the

placed the two under arrest, having
been SO requested by telegraph. He
held them an hour or so when the
old folks learning they were too late
to check the wedding ordered their
release and they were set free. From
general appearances neither of the
two looked like they were worth
making fuss about or the cost of 6

The dispatches from South Africa in
dicate that Buluwayo is in danger of
being taken by the Matabeles, who evil
IDENTIFY have possession of the whole
country except the settlements, and
thus have the British in very close
quarters. If the whites fall into the
hands of these savages it is very proba-
tle that we will heartof the most awful
naassacres. There are. but 900 fighting
men in Buluwayo, and surrounding the
place at no very great distance are at
least $4,000 Matabeles, most of them
well armed, and quite as good marks
men as the British. OF course, a por-
ton of them have no firearms and are
dangerous only in close quarters. But
with so small force opposed to SO large
a one the fear may well be entertained
that the savages will bring fighting to
close quarters. The news of the next
few days will be looked forward to with

THE FLOWER FESTIVALS.

t The flower festival season is now
fully on. The first OF Importance was
that of Santa Barbara, then came a
small but striking one at Mare Island
Los Angeles follows next, and then
come those of San Jose, Healdsburg,
Santa Cruz Santa Rosa, Stockton, Oak
land and other places. This sentiment Of
celebrating the advent of spring With
floral festivals appears to have taken
firm hold upon our people, and to be ex-
ercising beneficial influence upon the
communities generally. Of course these
affairs absorb a good deal of the time
of many people in each city or town,
and engage a good deal of public atten-
ton also. But there is no draft finan-
cially upon the people that is at all
strain, and there is no money sent out
of the communities because Of them.
Considerable sums have to be raised to
carry them out, of course, but these are
considered good investments, as the in
fiux of strangers to witness the floral
nifty something of profit. But if there
is much of calculating about financial
gains in these matters it is all happily
overcast by the sentimental, for there
appears to be very gentle and human
and kindly spirit among the people in
the work of getting up these festivities.
AS to those who go to see them it is not
the desire merely to witness a great
number of exercises and view floats and
decorated carriages and floral wreathed
designs as one views a spectacle merely;
for we must think that they are drawn
more by the love for the beautiful, by
sincere satisfaction taken in contemplate
ing the graces of nature, and are most
influenced by the sentiment that makes
tender the heart, the countenance to
light up and the lips to open with smiles
in the presence Of flowers; the sentiment
that is really a worship of nature as she
presents herself in her delicate and
most beautiful forms And from this
we proceed to the entertainment of a
more kindly spirit for our neighbors,
and SO it is that the California floral fes
tivals become really agencies for good,
in that they bring US together in the
best Of moods, and with the sharp cor
ners of everyday strife turned down
Let us have all the flower festivals we
can. Every town and city having the
capacity for such cereronials may we'll
engage in them. They are not silly,
nor effeminate, nor undignified; but
they are refining, gentle and humaniz-
ing, and cultivate among us the love for
things beautiful in nature, and may we
not believe that that is next to adora-
ton Of natures Great King?
