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. A True Piotqro. Little more than two years ago, the* Bostoir Dost says, “Qeu. Grant made his rcpoit of order and good-will nt tho South. Ila commenced, in tlio niost eulogistic manner; the temper and spir it of tho people throughout tlio South ern States. Sumner called this report whitewash ; so hns-ovefy ovidonco of n proper feeling at tiio ’ South Beim de nounced by Uadlciits'ns untrue, to per petuate augment scctiqiial’nlienatloiifor party purposes.
