ITALIAN COURTSHIP.

The system of getting wife among
the Italians here is somewhat strange
and peculiar. A man wanting a wife
sends the money over to Italy to some
young woman that has been informed
of his desire. She comes 10 this town
in due course of time, and is introduced
to the young fellow, and a marriage
follows. Sometimes there is a breach
of contract. and the young lady mar
ries another fellow, but as a rule the
contracting parties hitch very well. The
ether day a daughter of Italy came for
the above purpose, and it only requires
the presence of the judge to settle the
matter. Italians are becoming quite
numerous here, both by births and i'm
migration.
Another entertainment by the *. of
p. is on the taps, and this effort will
eclipse all others. Among the features
will be a scarf dance, by seven young
girls. The uniform rank is in regular
drill.
As customary. st. Patrick's day will
be celebrated at Helper by a grand
ball, at James Rooney's place. The
Castle Gate orchestra has been engaged
for the occasion.
The many friends of Mrs Henry
Wade will be glad to learn that the
good lady is convalescing from her Sc

Atlanta February 21.--The announce

for gubernatoral honors is the sole topic
for sensational discussion in all circlcs,
