+-rlegible I reeds of all descriptions of domestic an- TmVis from foreign countries.—Geo. ( Macon ) Teh graph* Getiins Married. The afternoon service had ended, and the congregation were arranging themselves for the benediction, when, to the great astonish ment and manifest interest of the worshipers, the good parson descended from the pulpit to the desk below, and said in a calm, clear voice, “Those wishing to be united in the holy bonds ot matrimony will now if they please to come forward.’* A deep stillnes fell over the congregation, broke”, oniy by the rustling of silk as some pretty little girlorfexcited matron changed her position, to catch the first view of the couple to be married. No one, however, arose, or seemed thejeast inclined to arise. Where upon, the worthy clergyman, deeming his first notice unheard or misunderstood, repeated the invitation. “Let those wishing to be united in the holy bonds of matrimony now come forward ” Still no one stirred. The silence became al most audible, and a painful sense of the awk wardness of the position was gradually spread im* among those present, when a young gen who had occupied a vacant slip in the rSmid aisle during service, slowly arose, and deliberately walked to the foot of the altar. He was good looking, and well dressed, but no one knew him, and no female accompanied his travels. When he arrived within a re spectable distance of a the clergyman, he paus ed, and with a reverent bow stepped to one side of the aisle, but neithers aid anything nor seemed at all disconcerted at the idea of get ting married alone. The clergyman looked anxiously around for the bride —who he supposed was yet to ar rive— length remarked to the gentleman in an under tone: “The lady, sir, is dilatory.” “Very, sir.” “Had we not better postpone the ceremony Jongerl ” “I think not 1 do you not suppose she will be here soon ? ” “Me, sir,” said the astonished shepherd, “how should I know of your lady’s movements'? That is a matter belonging to yourself” Avery few moments more were suffered to elapse in this unpleasant state of expectancy, whim the clergyman renewed his interrogato ries: ‘ Did the lady promise to attend at the present hour, sir!” “What lady !” “What lady! why the lady you are waiting here for.” “I did not hear her say anything about r it,” was the satisfactory response. “Then, sir, may I ask why you are here, and for what purpose you thus trifle in the sanctuary of the Most High ! ” said the some what enraged clerical. “1 came, sir, simply because you invited all those who wished to be united in the holy bonds of matrimony to step forward, and I ! happened to entertain such a wish ! I am very sorry to have misunderstood you, sir, and wish you a very good day.” The benediction was uttered in a solemn tone very little in accordance with the twitch ing of the facial nerves; and when, after the church was closed, the story got wind among the congregation, more than one little girl le gretled that her wishes had not be?n as boldly expressed as the young gentleman’s, who had mg&tV'Y wished to be “united in the holy bonds umiatrimony.” #3* “Hau s York ell’ has the following epigram, in the last New Orleans Bulletin, in reference to the nomination of U. S. Judge for this Cir cuit : “To badger the bench every lawyer essays And makes the attempt in various ways ; But here, from the State with less law than of tar, Behold shrewd effort sto “Badger” the bar.” 00“ The reason that a chilly day is called “raw,” is because the sun doesn’t give heat enough to cook it! OO” A young dandy about starting on a sea voyage, went to a store to purchase his life pre server. “Oh, you will not want it,” suggested the clerk, “bags of wind don’t sink!” OO” Lord Orrery used to say that Fenton, | the poet, died of an easy chair and two bottles j of port a day.
