A Wedding in Holland.

\ Dutch wedding is curious contrast
to an English one In Holland the we'd
ding party enters the church two and two,
the procession being headed BY the bride
and bridegroom. Forms are arranged in
semicircle round the pulpit, and there the
young people with their friends and
relatives seat themselves. The ceremony
consists of the reading of a portion of
Scripture and a long admonition to the
bride and bridegroom, delivered extern
pore by the black gowned minister The
prayers are sat through ike the rest of the
service, for it is against Calvinistic custom
to kneel to pray. At the close of the
service Bibles are presented to the young
couple and 10 certain of their relatives.
Then the marriage is registered This
free distribution of Bibles, which is made
by the state, accounts for the very small
sale there is for the Holy Scriptures in
Holland

LYRICS OF THE old STONE CHURCH.

"A little nonsense now and then
Is relished BY the wisest n."-Pope.
Thanksgiving dsy-balmy and clear,
On vale and hill a purple haze,
AS though November had stolen one
of Indian summers halcyon days.
The old church held a motley crowd,
For worship as on Bonded knees
They rendered thanks, 'mong other things,
That pumpkins do not grow on trees.
Else they might fall upon the head
OF some idler beneath the tree,
And thus disturb his rest, and bid
His well-laid plans for ease all dee.
The discourse, too, was lengthed out
Beyond the usual hour, that all
Might hear of Plymouth Rock, and note
The style in dress of great and small.
The service done they formed in groups,
Like Bluchers men at Waterloo;
Some spoke of what they once had done,
Others of what they meant to do.
The preacher stood with folded arms
Watching the throng, wishing. no doubt,
That Ralaams ass could come that way
The gibble-gabblfng flock to rout
A woodcook whirr'd across the road
Unnotised by sportsman, dressed
In city style, as on he strobe
To seek train for home and rest.
Uncertain of his bearings he
Questioned dame he CHANGED to meet,
On her way home from church, where she
