celebrated at the Congregational church

large number of the relatives and friends
of the contracting parties. The air of
quiet elegance which marked the ar-
rangement of all the details has seldom
if ever been equalled in this city, and
the happy event passed off with astnooth~
neas which was highly‘ pleasing. there
being none of the brea s which so often
ntar affairsof the kind. The church was
opened at six o‘clock.but onlythoeobaving

en o‘clock. the hour a pointed for the
ceremony. the body 0 the church was
filled by a brilliant assemblage, the tot-
let. of the ladies being elegant andiin

harmonious wholt-flike an exquisitely
arranged boquet. Among the most not.
able were Mrs. Mary Beard, the mother
of the bride. in black silk cut en train.
with int lace and diamond ornaments;
Mrs. oseph Jennings. the mother of the

in the Board of Selectmen. .Probably
the only way to preveut'tbis is either to
divide the town, or abandon the foolish
system of political minority represent»

eligible from any party there would be no
cause for the nt sectional strife.
At the polls in this city nine bulots
for city officers were deposited in the
town box and four town ballots in the
city. As they did not change the result
no rticular harm was done; but isn‘t
it time that such blunders were made:

done by a opting the endorsement plan

“Across the Confluent."
Perhaps there is no play more familiar
to the public. than the one entitled
“across the Continent." in which Mr.
Oliver Dowd Byron has made a national
reputation. The play is of the most
sensational character with a happy cone
bination of the most funny fun. Each
season it presents new and improved fea-
tures. and draws increasing audiences.
This season it has elicited more praise
than ever from the press and we believe
it will draw better than ever. Mr. Mit-
chell has secured it for the Opera House,
Saturday evenin . and if we are not
mistaken. it will raw as large an audi-
ence as has been in that
