The parson consented and the ti was fixed, but the bride lived so far away permission was again asked to use the horse and bugy io bring her to the parsons house. This was also granted and the company was in- vited to attend the ceremony. At last, when the company and the bridal pair had assembled, and the clergyman stood up to marry the couple, it was found that the young man had no license. The poor min- ister had a dreadfvl time to make bim understand that the marriage could not proceed without it. But the upshot of it was that the horse tad buggy were borrowed again to go off to the next village and get a license. Of course, this would take a good part of the night, so the company was dismissed and a bed provided for the prospective bride. Early in the morning the young man reappeared with his license. A few hours later the company was reassembled and the pair were mar- ried. When the ceremony was over the groom handed the long suffering minister a dollar, saying that was all that he could give just now, be- cause the delay of the trip had put him some out o’ pocket, but he'd get $4 more some day sure, for he knew deserved it. But the story does not end here. Shortly after this a subscription was taken up to pay the minister his yearly salary. Five dollars a head was about the sum reckoned proper for payment. When the manager of the affair went among the parishoners to take up the money the late bride- groom handed out $4, saying: “Mr. A— would understand; he paid him | up $1 already.” So that thrifty parishoner got his yearly subscription, his marriage fee, | fourteen buggy rides, a night's lodg- |ing for his bride and breakfast for | both out of the minister. sll for the j sum of $5.

The rustic suddenly awakened to the fact and dropped his fair com- panion’s hand. “Here, Sal, take this bundle,” he said, giving her a big ten-pound package. This she did, and John, freed from any incum- brances and filledfwitha fine courage because of her presence and the fact that her eyes were upon him, boldly marched back to the crowd of haif- grown, dudish youths, and proceed- ed with great expedition to knock their heads together. One, lifted from his feet by the collar, wildly kicked the air, and another made insane gyrations in a semi-circle, as the brawny farmer yanked him about with a firm grasp near the temui- nation of the unhappy young man’s coat tails. When the object lesson had been sufliciently enforced the countryman picked up his slouch hat from the sidewalk and rejoined his admiri g companion, who fairly bubbled over with delight at John’s powers. There was net enough material left in that crowd who guyed them to get up a pretense for a civil suit, and the farmer and his lass went on undis- turbed and swung their clasped hands as serenely as might be.—Al- bany Express. i Wail of a Broken Heart. “Tosum up the situation, the withdrawal of Blaine has demoralized the republican forces just at the critical time.

Texas will be di- ided into several states and demo- ie territories will be admitted: the results of republican rule will be wiped out as fast as possible and the country will be set back tothe status of 1860.
