An hour after the nuptial ceremony, a
most elegant and sumptuous wedding
supper was enjoyed by the large assem
bly of tho frlonds of the family and of
tbo wedded couple. The bridal pres
ents were numerous, very beautiful and
some of them eostly, among the latter
being a diamond pondant of great bril
liancy and beauty, presented by tho
groom.
Of the personal of this happily united
youDg couple it may not be amiss to say
of the groom that he Is one of the best
and most popular young business men of
Americus, Ga., pure and upright in pri
vate life and prosperous in business.
And of the bride, the scribe can say that
he has known her from iDfaney, and

oannot be otherwise than that heaven
smiles upon the union of two such
hearts and lives, and the Advertiser,

abroad are still in the city, and will not

The Georgia Minstrels.
Richards A Pringle’s Georgia Min
strels held the boards at Glover’s opera
house last night, and played to a paeked
gallery and a fair audience in the lower
part of tho house.
Tbo full programme was well ren
dered, and especially good were the
Crescent City Quartette, who were
obliged to respond to numerous encores
and at each recall they gave a number
more delightful than the last.
The female Impersonation of Mallory
was good.
But the whole show hinged on Billy
Kertsnds, who is, beyond doubt, unex
celled in his negro character, Infusing
Into it more of natural originality than
is often attained by artists in hls line.

An EnaUah “Fob ”
To those who have enjoyed a trip to
“the old country," Gambrinu. Halle,
with its white-sanded floor, polished
woodwork and gleaming crystal, is dis
tinctly reminding of that most ancient
institution, the English publio bouse,
or “pub,” aa they are called ovet there.
Around the old “pubs" of. England
cluster many historical events and tales
of fiction. Many of them have been
rendered well nigh famous, and of the
standard writers of English folk-lore
and fiction, there arc few who do not in
troduce the “pub" In more than one
place of prominence.
Dickens, In bis ini mltahln works, has
woven many a chain of charming narra
tive from the English tap-room and
evolved from the habitues of the road
side tavern many a noble nature. Thack-
ery, too, makes of this cheerful and
homely spot the place of social converse
with a “feast of reason and a flow of
soul.”
Over a glass of foaming ale or porter,
or a mug of “arfn'arP’ life takes on a
roseate hue; the frailties of our fellow-
men are viewed with lenient eye, and we
decide that, after all, there are worse
places of abode than this world.
Beautiful, but of Sad Significance.
Yesterday Messrs. Hawkins & Loving
received by freight a beautiful vehicle.
The car of death, panoplied with the em
blems* of grief and the trapping of woe
Rich in its appointments and perfect in
its symmetry and beauty, a fitting con
veyance in which to remove to its eter
nal resting place all that is mortal of de
parted loved ones. What more meet
than we should in small measure dem
onstrate our love and affection by mak
ing the last sad rites as impressive and
imposing as po&sihie, ’tis the final trib
ute from life to dissolution. 4
The hearse * was manufactured by
Messrs. Sayers & Scoville of Cincinnati
and Is a triumph of carriage building
art, Bronze statuary ornamentation,
and lamps with cut glass lights.
Messrs. Hawkins & Loving have pro
cured a complete undertakers’ outfit,and
as Mr. Loving has recently taken a full
course in embalming with Clarke, the fa
mous Cincinnati embalracr, the firm is
prepared to perform in artistic manner
the offices pertaining to undertaking.
