MISCEIJL.ANEC > ITS A Rich Marriage—Seven Hun dred Thousand Dollars in Pres ents.—The marriage in New York of Mr. Arthur Ambrose Maginnis, of New Orleans, to Miss Mary Amelia Tweed, daughter of William M. Tweed, the well-known New York politician, has been announced briefly by tele graph? The marriage was a notable affair, as rich as. if not far richer than the celebrated Ovido diamond nuptials which created so much talk someyears ago. Trinity Chapel was the scene of the Maginnis Tweed nuptials, and the streets for blocks around were filled with carriages, while the church was crowded to excess. Afterwards, when the married couple proceeded to the elegant Fifth avenue mansion of the bride’s father, they received their friends, standing under a magnificent marriage hell of japonicas at the end of the reception room. The parlors and stairway and upper rooms were all decorated with natural flowers from Mr. Tweed’s hothouse at Greenwich. The floral decorations were most pro fuse and its excellent taste. In an enclosure at the foot of the stairs, on the reception floor, was stationed a band of music, which discoursed prom enade music during the first part of the evening, and afterwards played dancing airs. The wedding presents, given by a large number of friends, were displayed in one of the upper rooms, ami must have amounted to the value of $7 00,000, and presented an appearance of brilliancy which can never have been equalled in munifi cence. They comprise all sort3 of jewelry, with diamonds enough to SUMMERY'ILLE, GroV., JUNE 15, 1871. stock half a dozen stores; silver sets in profusion and almost everything .hat the ingenuity of the human mind could suggest in the line of presents. The room which contained this mag nificent display was thronged with the guests, who feasted their eyes on the brilliant contents. The bridal trousseau is described as having been “the richest ever pro duced in New York, and fit for a princess.” The wedding dress alone, which was of white grossgrain, with a prodigious train and trimmed with point lace, cost $5,000. It took one of the principal fashion establishments in the city two months to complete the whole trosseau. Hard ox “Brick.” — The Shenan doah Democrat is severe on “Brick” Pomeroy. The following editorial will sour the sweetness of his new honeymoon: It is said that fortune ceased to smile upon Napoleon the moment he dissolved his connection with Josephine; and so, doubtless, the old dame has deserted the Napoleon of the newspaper world, “Brick” Pomeroy.. The news of his divorce ment from the wife about whom he has written so much—the mother of the children that he has told so many anxious inquiries delighted to fondle his whiskers and call him “papa”— and his marriage to another woman, is but a few days in advance of the intelligence that It is organ, the New York Democrat , has ceased to exist. Fortune seems to have reserved to him even a harder fate than sea-girt imprisonment, by making him come down to the very man from whose shoulders he leaped into notoriety. We cannot respect a man for his politics alone, and we have voted “Brick” Pomeroy a humbug, immoral and unprincipled; his “Saturday Nights” a false photograph of his real character, ever since his illustration of the marriage relation, which he gave to the public more than a year ago. liis replies to some of his lady correspondents (particularly to “Miss Julia," of Texas) are insults to wo men as gross and cowardly as any imputed to Butler in New Orleans.— He has been promulgating fre /love sentiments and inLotating lieera-ed prostitution ever since he commenced his visits to the saloon girls, and his pictures of “Nights in New York;” for all of which I|C merits public con demn.atio. and a greater (if possible) punishment than the defeat lie lias met with at the hands of the Beast. We once admired him as a fearless champion of Democracy, but we now reprobate him, and consider his Wood huli-Clafllinistns as more dangerous to our country and its institutions than the rule of Radicalism.” Rem ark able Rescue.—ln the year 1-S2B. Laiidamnian Kasper, of Bran denburg, the newly-chosen Governor of Bellenz, was riding over the St. Gothard from Zng, accompanied by his servant and a faithful dog. At the top of the pass he and his servant were buried by an avalanche, which descended from the Lucendro. The dog alone shook himself free. His first care was to extricate his master. But when he saw he could not succeed in doing this, he hastened back to the hospice, and there, by pitiful howling and whining, announced that an acci dent had happened. The landlord arid his servants set out immediately with shovels and pickaxes, and fol lowed the dog, which ran quickly be fore them. They soon reached the place where the avalanche had fallen. Here the faithful dog stopped sud denly, plunged his face into the snow, and began to scratch it up, -iking and whining. The men „ set to work at once, and after a ibng and difficult labor, succeeded in extricating the Landaniman, and soon afterwands his servant. They were both alive, after spending thirty-six fouife! h*- - :. W ncath the snow, oppressed by the most painful thoughts. They had heard the howling and barking of the dog quite plainly, and had noticed hissud den departure, and the arrival of the deliverers ; they had heard them talk ing and working, without being able to move or utter a sound. The Lan damman’s will ordained that an image of the faithful dog should be sculp tured at his tomb. The monument was seen till lately at St. Osrvard’s Church, at Zug. An Old Account.—A rough look ing specimen of humanity Avas crush ing through Chatham street, New York, not long since, when he came plumply upon a JeAV, a specimen of his race, about whom there could he no mistake. Without a word of Avarnin g, the rough knocked him sprawling into he gutter. Picking himself up, and ink ing his ‘claret, faucet between his fin ger arid thumb, he demanded an ex planation. “Shut up, or I'D bust you again!” shouted the aggressor, ap proaching him. ‘I never done nodings mit you, and what for you mash me in the nose, asked Abraham. ‘Y'es yer hev; ver Jews crucified Jesus Christ, and I’ve a mind to go for you agin.’ ‘But mine Cot, dat vash eirhteen hundred years ago!’ said the Jew. "Wal, 1 don’t care if it was—l only heard of it last night,' replied the un washed, again going for his victim, who wisely went a trifle faster in the same direction. — .y, De-korum Ik the Louisiana House. —A Senegambian “Legisla tor" in the Louisiana House of Rep resentatives was grilled to order for what the Speaker was pleased to term “a breach of decorum.” The Sette gmnbian gentleman, who had been listening to a speech by a Dongo mem ber, on the close of said speech, elas ically observed, “dat dar nigga is a dam liar, an I’ll flow nty boot down his float if he opens his colla’ doah on me again.” To this Chestcrfibeldian outburst, the Speaker responded with his mallet, called order, and ventured to declare “the gentleman guilty of a breach of decorum.” “Br—hr—breach oh de—who,salt? breach oh de who!” “Breach of decorum, sir.” “Dav’s no korura healt at all, salt. I’se a qualified memba, salt, a setta haeh for to do de business ob my con st itutnus; an’ if dat dam nigga focites his lies to dis’ scmbly, I’ll frow a num ber sebenteen boot into dat trap doah ob his salt!” After the indignant gentleman had thus given expression to his senti ments, the other gentleman subdued, and the august assembly of lawmakers for the State of Louisiana went on with their important business. Foolish spending is the father of poverty. Do not be ashamed of hard work. Work for the best salaries you can get, but work for half price rather than be idle. Be your own master, and do not let society or fashion swal low up your individuality—hat, coat and boots. Do dot cat up or wearout all that you earn A Compel your sel fish body to for prof it- saved. Jh- sfci- to your own appetite, hut mljciful to others’ ne cessities. Help others, and ask no help for yourself. See that you arc proud. Let your pride he of the right kind. Be too proud to he lazy; too proud to give up before conquer ing every difficulty; too proud to be in company that you cannot keep up with in expense ; too proud to lie, or steal, or cheat; too proud to be stingy. Summer.— Dear, generous summer is at hand, of all seasons most lavish and loving. Her full lap holds the blossoms of a world; her prodigal fingers scatter flowers on every side, by dusty highways, on mountain tops, in deep, secluded glens. The daisy’s show site piles in the meadow, and tinges a million fichls at once with gold of buttercup and red of clot er. But none the less does she find time for humble nookß, unnoticed spots of earth. And to us who have a tiny corner, a narrow back yard in which to do her homage, she comes as truly and as affluently as to palace garden or wide savanna. Do we drop a fcAv seeds, insert a twig? Immediately her warm hands descend in blessing. Flowers have no airs, no pride of rank or place to keep up. Mignonette Avil! bloom and vio lets nestle, roses open their perfumed hearts, morning-glories clime and twine, and lilies rear their stately heads as gladly in one place as an other. Give them but earth, sun and their beautiful opportunity, and noth ing will they care that the family wash flaps on i over their heads or that but a poor board fence sepa rates them from the next dor ash heap. So let us take courage—we who, pent in cities and narrow lines, feel sometimes that summer is riot for us. The universal Mother knows no dis tinctions. We are all alike hers, and for every smallest aid to her loving mission she is ready to give tenfold recoin pence, and “Make the world more sweet.” — Lynchburg , (Ya.,l Hews. Whence Comes The Roses. There is an old legend that there were in the Garden of Eden no roses but Avhite ones, until Eve tasted of the forbidden fruit. When the roses saAV her do this, they blushed for shame, in every shade, from the faintest dam ask to burning red ; and ever since there have been all the lively tints that we see. A which*', uies that there rvere ever any roses at all in the world until, on a certain time, at Bethlehem, there was a beautiful young girl who was charged with a crime, anu sentenced to be burned to death. They led her into a field, and piled fagots around her and set them on fire. But she being I innocent, prayed while they were burning that some wonderful thing might take place to show that she was innocent. And this is what happened: All the fagots which were on fire were changed into bushes full of red roses, and those which had not kindled turned into white ones, also full of flowers. “And these,” says an an cient writer, “were the first rose-trees and roses, both reft'and white, that ever man saw.” And the country where this was done abounds with them to this day. Another story accounts for the va riegated kinds. Once there were thirty years of miserable civil war in England, growing out of a quarrel be tween the two families of York and Lancaster about the right to the throne. It was a fierce and cruel contest, dur ing which some of the best blood in the country was shed, and noble fami lies became extinct. The whole na tion was divided, taking part with one or the other. Each party had a sym bol to be known by. The house of Lancaster chose a red rose, which was worn by all its adherents; upon which, that of York took a white one. So famous did these emblems become that the war was known all over Europe as the “War of the Roses.” The long strife ended at last by a marriage be tween a son and daughter of the ri val families. And now comes the marvellous part of the story ; which is that, after that, red and white roses appeared growing on the same bush. Sometimes they were almost pure white or unmixed red, but usually striped, mottled, or speckled in various arid beautiful ways. And a rose, quite common in old-fashioned gardens, has been called to this day, the “York and Lancaster rose.” If we choose to believe the above, we can account for all the varieties of roses known—because gardeners have the art to change greatly the shades of a single color—all except yellow ones. Can anybody tell us where those come from ? If so, we shall know also the origin of all the salmon and pale buff tints. ■/ Somebody—who is a very convert- j rent authority—boldly declares that ! they owe their golden hue to no mys tery, no miracle, but to an experi- J merit. No legend traces the unfold ing of the first yellow rose; but an ingenious gardener grafted a white rose upon a barberry bush! This does not sound so grand as an old tra dition ; but my readers can find out if it is True. They are too late by hun dreds of years for the first stories, but not for the last. The barberry has clusters of little yellow rose shaped flowers, and the root and wood are dyed so deep with yellow, that j they could transfuse a stream of go]- i deri sap into the scion. Is it true?] Who knows?— Ex. The Unbeliever. How my heart aches for the unbe liever—the one who can look upon the grandeur, sublimity, and glory of the celestial and terrestial spheres and say in his heart, “There is no God.” The unbeliever—the one who has al ways enjoyed the blessings of liberty, who lias the advantages of education both intellectual and moral, and who, while in early infancy, were taught to reverence God and lisp his holy name in prayer, will now come forth, deny the existence of a Supreme Being, the truths of the Bible, and the re ality of religion. He who can gaze upon the sun as he passes through the etherial heavens in his majestic splen dor, and the moon and stars as they come forth in their tranquil beauty, each at its appointed time, and still not acknowledge the of on all-wise sovereign, hut says all this is the work of chance, is riot a rnan, (on ly by name) but a monster in the im age of his maker. The heart of such a being must be a vacuum or a stone. If the former, rayless, cheerless.. hopeless. If the latter, it must be from Tartarus or it would be penetrates by the magnifi cence and beauty of the universe. Conscience is dead, and in its stead are all the evil passions. Reason is dormant. The mind is reduced to the lowest degree of degradation. That which was once so pure, now so pol luted. This is the condition of the unbe liever, and ought we not to pity him? Yes, certainly; we ought to commise rate him from our very hearts. His eyes are open, yet he sees nothing to convince him that there is a divine being who is omnipotence, omnisience, and omnipresence. For all such as have intellect and still deny the existence of Jehovah, let this be our daily petition—Be mer ciful, O God. An Elmira farmer wrote to Greely for his advice as to whether plaster was good to put on potatoes. Horace said he always used gravy or butter on potatoes, but supposed any one could get accustomed to plaster if they made an effort. VOLUME I, NO.
