MISS JONES' WKDDIKU. LuM evening Concert Hall was crowded by a faf biou'ible aud appreciative audience, gathered to listen to the delivery of a lecture by the famous humorist. Mr. be Cordova, upon the topic ''Miss Jones' Wedding No cards." As the lecture was wiit'en in verse, and It being impossible to give a synopsis of it in that way, tho following is au abstract, rendered iuto prose: Touching Mis Jones' wedding, ladies aud gentlemen', Mr. Fpbru;m Jones was a very nice inari; but his face whs all hnggard, jelloiv, and wn. He was troubled with chills and fever. and no wonder he suffered from similar ills, since in hoinu'piithic globules and pills he was always an earnest believer. So he dragged thiouuh his liie, like a walkin; gbo.st, as yellow nsgoldnudas turn as a po-t, with consecutive burnings and hhivcrings. His internal atlairs wire (lerarged, but they never, perhaps, had been rightly auanged, for he had a complaint of tliC liver. He uiibl have got well; ho could not have pot wcrse by abandoning drugs, and having recourse to the care of the butcher and bakir, but he globuled himself by day and by nith', and maintained one continued tkirnilsh and tiijlit alwajs with the undertaker. He wus besides, as tne rumor ran, an out-and-out fervent religious man, and sung pious hymns iu meeting, believing that this was the light thiug to do, he devoutly cousigned to the regions below all who did not believe at he did. Ho discovered a grand petroleum stream as black as your hat and as thick as new cream. From that tuns forward Joiicb was changed. He took a disgust to manual toil, uow tint his farm had begun to llowi il which had never flowed milk and honey so he snubbed his neighbors far and wide, showing a towering pride. Esteeming a country li e played out, he bought a new house in the city, which he fitted up in style so grand that there wus nothing like it in fairy laud. Iu short lie to k to all sorts of aiis, and the mora the well gave out its oil the more he burnt the pro ceeds to bluzis. Krs. Jones was a matronly person. Her dress was of velvet, aud the cut of her tkirt was perfection. She plastered power all over her fice to prevent it from looking as old as her lace. Mies Eupheiuia Jones was a very nice girl, with rather red hair, wh;cu the wore in curls, with Magenta ribbon ts bind it. I don't wonder hair is ns dear as it i, for Mips Jones wore pounds of it, ull frizzed. Blie walked about with a crick in hcrHback, witujtlie hobbling pait of a worn-out hack. Iu short, she practiced the (ireciau beud, and looked like a watermelon standing on end. She once was laid up with gout and rheumatism, and people said the furnished too graudly her basement and left bate her attics. She ouce had a lover of low degree, a honest a fellow as ever could be: she threw him ou" when her father grew ich. ud he difanoeared iu Oil vil 1c. Then there was Mr. Peter Biowo: be fell in lore over head and ear., wh'ch werj long for his years, with Mr. Jones' daughter. Jones hnd money and Brown had none, and he looked to be coming oues' bon. to cover a loug operation; to ho courted the lady by n'ght aud by day, in the most assiduous kind ot way. Now Mr. Hrown beloiiged to the worldly EChool, and whatever be was he wasu't a fool; he had studied the world enough to kuw thut if jou want to suc ceed jou muft make a show. He trusted all would go well; but, regarding ream.', ne no more could tell than the cross upon Tiiuity steeple. The world is a bubbling caldron of baoolmg tools. in snort, tne mission ot man, when told, is to get ail vou can in green backs and gold. Pretend to be rich if you are ever so roor; place your bet-t stock in the window and door, and the world is sure to believo if. To tell you the truth, the world is a tool, but is vastlv too cunning to show it. It will sutler ils losses untold to rema n, content to be plundered again aud apaiu, so the person next deer doet-u't know it. Mr. urown was as mean as a broker could be, iu private, where no one could see it. Bethinking how quickly his prelect might tail, his blood was turned into water, aud the only physic he wauled to take was Mr. Jones' daughter. It was not that he loved her, or wanted to know whether she loved him and would never care if he knew It. Miss Jones was wealthy. She was anxious, ot course, but it rendeied her happinees nothing the w orse, nor did it impair her digestion. It was we II understood all over the town mat inu heiress in oil had got Mr. Brown, and she waited till he nooceu the ouestion. so at Jcngin Air. Browu came up one day all dressed out in bis finest array, audlell plump on his knees before her. makintr a SDeecn impassioned enougn. lull of amorous blarney aud similar stuff, and swore that be did adore her. That Miss Jones was flustered, I need not say, and she behaved as though she would faint away, but fell in the arms of ner lover, xue nypo- cilte kent down on his knees ou the floor wnile the lady was anxiously watching the door, lest t-ome one should come In and soon it. Airs Jones was delighted to find that her daughter had nitt with a inm ot ner mina, anu auuresseu Mr. Biown as sonnv. Mr. Jones had no great love for the lover Indeed, and what with ball and rout and gadding about and plajing poker with Brown, the broker, attending serenaues. betting on races, aud otherwise making a fool of Llniself, he found that his lortune was run ning to seed. His eoose of the golden egg was dead, and oh I if you please, there is a disease which honueopatliic pills can't cure, when a man's own toll v torceB him down, vvueu tie heard that Mr. Brown was booked, he was glad at heart. He looked to him to help him out of the mess he was in. hociety needs deceit, so he drew a long, consideriue face, with which society bides what it niens and snid. It will be hard, he cried in accents wild, to part lioni that beautiful, loving child an angel of light she will bu to him I must not be scltkb. It is the pride of mv old see. Tie niv life. Take her, BrowH. Here was Brown, au inilated bail rolling al ing on notbiDg at all a stuiled out party of straw, indeed, leaning for help, indeed, upon that broken reed of marriage with Mi-s Kupbemia Joi.es. Browu's point was carried: he was soon to be married. The allnir all over was famed. The most clegaut church in that elegant town was suggesied for the ehpuut marriaue of Brown, and a lmst of friends, who secretly tated and envied the bride, wero invited. On ! howitlipy signed, tuat so hue a young man should rido wl'h a womnn wh'ise hair was dyed But hi re a question canio up ot tremendous im port. Mrs. Junes wanted to kuow what it meiint by "no cards." No cards, indeed ! She would certainly hate to interfere, but 1 think your objections arc mean an I unkind, aud you may please understand, whether you m iv like it or lonio it ."no carus," no Driaei miss ku nb( ihia cried, l'eter, it is too b id, and if I bad known there wus to bo ' no curds," I should never have named the day but "no cards," no bride. My dear, re marked Mr. Brown, you don't understand; U's a matter of fashion. I don't care for that, sa'd Miss Jones; if no cards aie sett I never will be married. Mr. Browu was too lame to bolt from the course. Ho knew that after tho marriage be would have Ids own wy. 8o now he was gentle, and did all she wished ; and bo the cards were entrraved as follows: -'"Mr. &"d Mr Jones nqueets the pleasure of your company, at 2G85 Fifth avenue, between eight aud eleven o'clock:" sud then there was a little larger card with, the ol M'.m JCopheoiia Joae, and a traallcr one with the name of refer Brown. Then there was a mons'er card announcing the ceremony, at three o'clock, at the church of Petroleum, Oleanlnonsville. Tbere are n.en who ride lu carriaees, and who live it luxury out of other people's follip. Dl rectly, when a man is In love, he contacts a mania for noakine presents. Bo It was with Peter Brown; blind to bis perilous position he bought lots of finery aud sweet things, trusting to bis marriage with Kuphciiia to make It good. He bought every bit of 1rah that he could set his mind on Mis Jones accepted all, even when ihe articles were delivered with the prices on ihem.

The village schoolmaster, who knew his case, wrote Smiih these lines: "Light of my life, (di, let mc hear thy vo:ce; Tuose accents I can ne'er forget; Miss Jones, whom I so loved in dajs ot yore, Tliey haunt my memory yet; I can die, and dying bless the light Hint caused my, cured my pain; L'nloved and far from her 1 love, is daily death to nie. ' upon reading tliefc lines Smith wept. In fact he wa weeping all the tune. He P oked like a ketilo of water alwajs in boil. He remained uusliaved like a bepgnrly Turk, expressive of love of the cruel Miss Jones. When he heard she was about to be married, he would have plunged headlong into a well of crude oil if it had not smelt so. He deteimiued it I'bwbe wss married that he would bf! in the church. Love unrequited would go uninvited. At length the expected morniug came when Mi?s Euidie mia Junes was to cliut-ge her name. The cards were ready and the envelopes carefully ad dressed.

Out of the vestry there soon came all torts of puzzling rumors. It was a quarter past, and Brown bad not come. There was deep deliberation. The bride was in a state of perturbation.
