Married Across a River.
A GOOD JOKE ON A KENTUCKY BRIDAL PAR
TY— 'DO IT QUICK, SQUIRE.”
A Chunelton, Indiana, Justice of the
Peace baa lately performed a matri
monial fea‘ which entitles him to the
kind regat 1 and business considera
tion of every pair of closely pursued
and hotly pressed lovers in the world.
Canneltoh is one of Kentucky’s con
venient Gretna Greens—much the
better and safer for being in another
State, wit I the sweet-flowing Ohio be
tween. C -melton is so used to young
Lu°iY a .Y s ? re .. never
notable h,story. A couple of this
kind sought the sweets of Cainelton
the other <lay, and got into the papers.
A pretty li'tle Kentucky gir! was
loved by two brothers. She was not
able to de Me betweeu them, and left
the qneshon with themselves to de
cide. Tl, y met one day on their
way to the house of the lady, and
commenc' and the argument of which
was the bast man in the old Kentucky
style of off with your coat and at it
pel inell, rough and tumble —biff and
come again. While they were thus
discussing their relative merits, and
both getting very tired of the debate,
another voung fellow who had no fra
ternal rival, slipped i to the house,
tol l of the disgraceful scene in prog
ress betv. een the brothers, and asked
the young lady to split the difference
and get* rid of the ruffians by taking
him. The picture he pointed her was
so bright that she took him at his
word and both hastened to make
tracks out of the State. They hied
them to the river and on the way en
gaged a holy man of Pawsville to
come over as quick as he could and
bring his wedding ceremonial outfit
for their everlasting benefit. He
agreed to skiff over the river in a
short time and told them to go; be as
happy as they could until he came.
They cross‘d over to Cannelton and
hastened to procure the necessary
wedding document by the laws of In
diana made and provided for such
vent nr s. They got it and were walk
ing hand in hand just outside the
gates of E len, waiting for them to
swing pen with silver music and ad
mit ti. 1 v still forbidden joys. There
was just enough fear of pursuit to
make it lively for their young hearts,
and cause them to tremble a little on
the brink of blessedness. They came
to Castleberry bridge over a rippling
•dream which was too wide to jump
and too deep to wade. The bridge
was undergoing repaits, and a large
portion of the floor was torn up.
They stopped and looked iiuo the
gulf below through the bare beams.
They gazed over to the Kentucky
sLore and saw a boat full of men row
irg across with steady stroke. Pur
sued ! That was the first thought.
What was to be done ? They would
perish together r ther than he torn
asunder. Hand in hand they ad
vanced ouc step nearer the gulf before
taking the fatal plunge through the
gaping bridge beams, A moment
more, and they would have been safe
from pursuit, and locked in each
other's arms at the pebbly bottom of
the stream. They heard a voice cry:
“Hold, r.ish, impetuous children. ’
They looked up and saw the smiling
face of Squire Patterson like a rising
sun on the other side of the bridge.
They knew him in their calmer, bap
pier days. The young lady was on
the most intimate footing with the
Squire, and she very naturally took
the position of spokesman. She hal
loed across, “Squire, marry us quick !”
At the same time pointing to the
advancing with audibly splashing oars
The Squire took in the situation in a
twinkling, and shouted, “All right,
send on your papers.” The young
man picked up a handy boulder, and
tying the license to it with his hand
kerchief, flung it across, while the
young woman was crying at the top
of her voice, “Here they come ! They
are ready to land! Do it quick,
Squire!” The squire did it quick,
and shouted the marriage ceremony
across the water, and bridged the
yawning chasm with safety for those
very near the brink. He ended, “I
pronounce you man and wife. Go
tell ’em what God hatn joined to
gether let no man burst asunder.
Young mar, tie a dolLr to another
dorniek and heave it over.” The lit
tle matter was all settled nicely, and
the young couple breathed again.
They were marrie 1 and pronounced
man and wife so quickly that it ma le
their heads swim. They could now
dare life, and brave all the world;es
pecially their eager pursuers, who
had landed from the boat. They
tururd toward the skiff passengers
with proud defiance, and suddenly
came to thtir sober senses. The boat
brought over the holy man whom they
had engaged to marry them, and his
party, and they felt ashamed.
Miscellaneous.
Many a child goes astray, not be
cause there is a want of prayer or vir
tue at home, but simply because home
lacks sunshine.
Give work rather than alms to the
poor. The former drives out indolence,
the latter industry.

The child who privately does a thing

Sin Against the Holy Ghost.
MAT. XII., 32.
Expositors generally, consider these
words literally denouncing absolute
damnation against those wicked Phar
isees. I cannot say they strike me in
that light. I cannot suppose the sin
against the Holy Ghost, any more
than other sins, was absolutely un
pardonable. My reasons are these:
First: it seems contrary to the .gen
eral tenor and tenderness ol the Gos
pel, to place any person beyond a possi
bility of salvation. The gospel was
preached to all mankind; and repen
tance held out universally to all.
Secondly: Before our saviour finish-
i Uifl Very discourse with the Scribes
and Pharrs-o^-,
have thrown out to
tauce, holding up the Ninevites to
them as pattern, which would have
been very unnecessary if repentance
had been ineffectual. “The men of
Nineveh, shall rise up in judgment
against this generation, aud condemn
it, because they repented at the preach
ing of Jonas, and behold, a greater
than Jonas is here.” This surely sup
poses that if the men of that genera
tion—namely, the Scribes and Phari
sees to whom the speech was ad
dressed —had repented, they might,
like Nineveh, have been pardoned.
My last reason is, that it is com
mon in Scripture to put the impossi
bility of a thing for its great difficulty.
Several passages might be mentioned,
but I shall quote only that remark
able passage in which our Saviour
says, “It is impossible for a rich man
to enter into the kingdom of heaven.”
When the disciples seemed startled at
so severe a sentence, Jesus immedi
ately qualified what he had said by
explaining lm meaning: “It is impos
sible for those who trust in riches to
enter into the kingdom of heaven.”
For these three reasons, therefore, I
cannot take the 6in against the Holy
Ghost to have been literally unpar
donable. If this sin then was rather
difficult than impossible to be forgiv
en, let us examine in what this pecu
liar difficulty—for such, no doubt, it
was, consisted. It seems to have con
sisted iu an obstinate demonstration
to resist the greatest calls to repen
tance which could possibly awaken
sinners. It is impossible for sinners
to have a greater than their blessed
Saviour working miracles before their
eyes, aud they who resisted this call
might well be supposed to resist every
call. They had hardened themselves
to such a degree, that no hope of their
repentance remained.
The stress, therefore, appears to be
laid rather on the improbability of re*
pentance than on tbe impossibility of for*
giveness.
GILPIN.
“I Was Too Confident.”
After the awful tragedy of the “At
lantic,” Captain Williams, in the an
guish of his spirit referring to the fa
tal mistake in calculating his vessel's
position, over which he slept so quiet
ly, said, “The one thing that rebukes
ine, which I cannot keep out of my
mind, which will remain with me as
long as I live, is that I was too confi
dent, too confident."— with every repe
tition of the ghastly picture of disas
ter in memory, conscience will ring
over it the fearful words, “too confi
dent."
How much more melancholy the
fact that every shipwreck for eternity
will have just this bitter cause of the
soul-tragedy. Whatever the form of
unbelief, or reason for delay, this im
mortal spirit slept over a careless mis
calculation of safety—it was too con
fident. Oh, to the lost forever, who
can tell us the agony of the single
self-accusation, while with the dread
ful past behind, the vision stretches
on to see only the blackness of dark
ness, “I was too confident.”
jgfSotue ministers preach to please
their congregations; others to please
God. The latter class are not as a
! rule, the most popular in this world,
which indicates the wide separation
between things human and divine. In
the future world—the world of re
wards—the preeminence of the duti
ful pastor will appear.
