Tlio Bridal Wine-Cap.
“Plodgo" with' ftino—plctlgo with
wine,” cried tlio young and thoughtless
Harvey Ilood | " plctlgo; with wine,"
ran through tho brilliant crowd. Tho
benutlful brldo grow pale—tho deolslvb
hour had come. She pressed her white
hands together,' ntid tho loavos of tho
bridal wreath tromhled on hor brow - ,
hor heart bent wilder.
“Yes, Marion, lay aside your scru
ples for this once,” said tho judge, in
alow tone, going townrds Ills daughter,
“ the company expect it. Dp not In
fringe upon tho rules of etiquette ; In
your own homo do ns yon please, but
In mine, for this once, ploaso mo.”
Every oyo was turned towards tho
liridnl pair. Million’s principles wore
woll known. Henry was a convlvjnllst,
but of Into Ills friends noted tho clinngo
in his manners, tho diircrenco in his
habits; and to-night they wat^HM to
see, ns tlioy snccringly said, if ho was
tied down to a woman’s opinion so
soon. Pouring] a brimming beaker,
they held it with tempting smiles to
wards Marion. Slio was still very pale,
though more composed, and iter hand
sliook not ns she gently nocoptod tlio
crystal teiiipor and raised it to her lips.
But scarcely had slio ilono so, when
every hand was nrroBtcd by hor pierc
ing exclamation of “Ob, how terrible!”
“ What is it?” cried ono nnd all,
thronging together, for slio had sternly
carried tile glass at arm’s length, and
was ilxcdly regarding it ns though it
were some hideous object.
“ Wait,” slio answered, while an in
spired light shone from her dark eyes,
“wait, and 1 will tell you. 1 see,” she
added slSwlyi pointing one jeweled lin
ger at the sparkling liquid, “ a sight
that beggars all description ; and yet
listen I 1 will paint for you if I cun.
It is a lonely spot, tall mountains
crowned with verdure riso in awful
sublimity around; a river runs through,
and bright (lowers grow to tho water’s
edge. There is a thick warm mist that
llie sun seeks vainly to pierce. Trees,
lofty and beautiful, wave to the airy
motion of birds; but there a group of
Indians gather; they (lit to mid fro
with something litre sorrow upon their
brows. And ill their midst lies a man
ly form—but his cheeks, how deathly;
his eyes wild with tlio lire of fever—
One friend stands beside—nay,I should
sny kneels, for see, ho is pillowing that
poor head upon his breast. Genius In
films—ohl the liiglf, lio]y-looking brow,
why ‘should death roarlcjfc ami ho so
young. Look how lie throws back tlio
damp curl 1 see him clasp-his hands !
hour his thrilling'shrieks for life I mark
how he clutches at the form of Ills com
panion, imploring to ho saved. Oh
hear him call piteously his father’s
name—see him .twino Ids Angers to-
ns ee-riirH'ks tiff fiT-rse-tf-v-a-ti la-p ( ]
only sister—the twin of ids totil!—
weeping for him in his distant native
land. See!” she cxqlaimetl, while tho
bridal party shrank back, the untested
wine trembling ill their faltering grasp,
ami the judge fell overpowered upon
his seat—“see, his arms are lifted up
to heaven ; ho prays, how wildly, for
mercy ; hot fever rushes through'bis
veins. Tlio friend beside him is weep
ing awe-stricken ; tho dark men move
silently away, and leave the living and
tlio dying together.”
Thera was a hush in tlio princely
parlor, broken only tty what seemed a
smothered sob from some manly bosom.
Tlio brido stood upright, with quiver
ing Tip! and teal's stealing-to tlio out
ward edgo of her lashes. Her beauti
ful ann Imd lost its tension, and the
glass, with its little troubled rod waves,
came slowly toward tho rango of her
vision. Slio spoke again; every lip
was mute. Her voice was low, faint,
yet awfully' distinct; slio still fixed her
sorrowful glnneo upon- tho myte cup:
“it is evening now ; tlio greal wliito
moon is coming up, nnd his beams lay
gently on his forehead. He moves not;
liis eyes are set in their sockets—dim
are their piercing glances—ill vain Ills
friend whispered tho name of the lath
er nnd sister—death is there. Death,
nnd no soft hand, and no gentle voico
to bless and soothe him. His head
sinks back—ho is dead 1”
A groan through tlio nssemhly', so
vivid was tlio description, so unearthly
her look, so inspired her mnniior, that
what she described!seemed actually to
linvo taken placo then and there.—
They noticed,also, that the bridegroom
hid liis face in his hands, and was cry-
in that land'of gold, will, T trust, sus
tain mo in that rcsolvo. Will you not,
my husband!"
Ills glistoning oyes, ills sad, swoot
smilo was hor answer. Tlio judge left
tlio room, nnd when in an hour after ho
returned, and' .with n more subdued
manner took part in tlio ontertnimnoiit
o. tho bridal giiosts, no ono ootlld fail
to rend that lie, too, imd dotormlnod
to banish .tlio enemy at onoo nnd forev-
or from ids princely home. Those, who
wore present nt that wedding can nev
er forget tlio impressions so solemnly
inodo—many from that hour fofoaworo
tho social glass.

tVo copy from tho Romo Courier,

Lo Hardy, formerly iho Chlof Engin
eer of tho Western nnd Atlantic Rail
road, from which it will bo seen tlmt
ho pays a well-merited compliment to

Martin II. Dooly, Esq.;
“Nlflotenn dr twenty years ago, a
bright Irish boy, who was an Industri
ous, working, good looking intelligent,

“There is not a foot of the soil be

so knows all the wntor co.ursos, and
how to manage nnd mastor them in all

ployees, 'whoso wivos and gfilldrcn
could go to sleep without fear for tho
lives of their dear ones dependent on
the road, presented .him lately with a
beautiful Chased silver tea service, as
the affectionate, atid the moat honora-
blo testimony of acknowledgment.
“By all thoso who know Mr. Dooly,
Ito is considered to be the only man in
Georgia who call occupy that gibSt re
sponsible position to make the Hoad
safe and secure.
“Mr. Martin Dooly is the inventor of
a contrivance working for tho switch

Droam Remarkably Fulfilled.
■Bov. L. W. .Lewis, in his “Reminis

ed in tlio Texas Christian Advocate,
relatcstlioannexed remarkable instance
as literally true. Tho battle referred
to was tlmt of Praire Grove, in North,
west Arkansas, fought December 7th,
1862:
A curious fulfillment of a dream oc
curred at this battle under my own eye.
A limn by the namo of Joo Williams,
hail told a dream to many of his follow-
soldiers, some of whom had related it
to me, months previous to tho occur
rence, which I now rolnto:
Ho dreamed tlmt wo crossed a river,
mavohed over a mountain and encamp
ed ncara church located in a wood hear
which a terrible battle ensued, ntid inn
charge ns we crossed tho ravine lie was
allot in tho breast. On tlio over-memo
rable 7 th of December, '62, as wiuuov-
od in double .quick lo tako our placo
in the lino of liattlo, then already 'hot
ly engagod, wo passod Prairio jxrovo
Church, a small frame building belong
ing to tlio Cumberland Presbyterians.
1 was rilling on the flank of tiio com
mand, and opposito to Williams; ns wq
came in view of tiio liouso. “Tlmt is
tlio ohureli, Colonol, I saw in my
dream,” said lie. I made no reply,
and never thought of tho matter again
until in tho evening, wo Imd l>r.oken the
enemy’s line, nnd were in full pursuit,
when we came upon a dry ravine in the
wood, and Williams said: “Just on tlio
other aide of this Inllow I was shdt in
my dream, mid 1 will stick my Imt t((i-
dermy shirt. Suiting tho notion to tho
word as ho ran along, Ilo doubled it up
nnd crammed it In liis bosom—scarcely
Imd lie adjusted it before a minnio ball
knocked him out of the lino. J umping
up quickly, lie pulled out Ids Imt, wnv.
cd it over Ids head, nnd shouted, “I’m

four thicknosses of ids hat, raised n

Appalling Death of a Bon of Rev.
Dr. Etilos.
A correspondent of tlio Lynchburg
Virginian, writing from Alleghony
Springs, August 31, says;
A shocking accident occurred hero
to-day, which resulted in tho death of
ono of tho visitors. A party, consist
ing of about a dozen ladies and gentle-
moil, wont on an excursion to tho IMS
not far from.'tlio Springs. Among
them was Mr.' R. R. Stiles, a son of
tho Rev. Dr. Stiles, Soon after tho
party Imd. arrived at tlio falls, MR
Stiles, to amuse himself, clltnod a tall
pine tree which stands on the brink of
the stream. Having gqno up a dis
tance of probable forty or fifty feet, ho
wont out on a largo jimii overhanging
the’ rocky gorgo beneath, and while
there holding to another limb overhead,
he lost his footing, and fell to tho
ohastn below, tho bod of which is sol
id rock. Of courso tho^rosult was in
stall death. His head was crushed,
ids] right leg! shattered, and ids body
otherwise mnngled. Life was extinct
nlmost ns soon ns he was reached by
his friends who wuro in a few feetjof
him. Tho effect was appalling on thoso
who wore present and witnessed tlio
