By 4uis means, the men with ‘wives along’ had refreshing naps, ‘but temporary widowers and bachelor: napped it on the lu Ved “At dinner, however, it was supposed al! the men would have ap equal chance. The ladies filled the first table, and as there were more men than enough to fill a second, the chances for dinner became a matter of interest. The @espair of those who had neither wives bor sweethearts along, can be imagined, when, as one after another of the ladies finished dia- ner, she beckoned to this husband, or that beam, who quietly took the vacated seat. So when the ladies had done eating, the ehairs were already Milled for the second table with these who had their wives along. - ‘That demonstration of the comforts of matrimony sank deeper than the heart—it went to the stomach.’ : Peter Morgan, son of Johan W. Morgan, residence, 14th street, is the name of the !ad whe saved the life of a younger brother, om Sunday afternoon last, afterhe had fallen into the dock. About four months since. young Morgan, who is an admirable swimmer. saw another boy in the act of drowning, and without taking time to weigh the conseq wences of his act, jumped inte the water and succeed ed in saving the life of his playmate, when all who saw the deed felt assured that both par- ties would drown. Although not more thar ten years of age, he is both cvcl and resulute in ime of danger, and says he believes he could reseue a man from drowning, if not caught hold of, and theicoy ented the use of his limbs. —Richmond (Va.)
