I was married!! Doulonne white tulle. (Vail given by Aunt Jane.) Cried a deal, but so happy! Dear, darlioKCBt John, and looked eo noble in kiB blue coal! lie Monday. Was tied up at 10-30. Shocking dull affair crying church and bad champagne. Glad 1 stuck out about the settlement. fine Tuesday. Tenby. Beautiful morning; nnshine birds singing Dear John happy tt3 the day Is long. He Tuesday. Came dowc hero last night. Bad hotel, bad dinner. Place looks better by daylight; but I should say dullish. Poor Nelly! sot much to say for herself. She Wednesday. Pear, darlingcst John! so Vlnd and thoughttul. After breakfast wont out exploring all the ruins; so Interesting, and lean ing on John's arm so nice. He Wednesday. Tolerable breakfast. Went nt with Nelly to see '"the ruins," aud she quite walked mo off my legs. Awfully stupid things "ruins" are, to be sure ! Had no Idea before that Nelly weighed so much ; took my arm all the way back. She Thursday. Iu the morning went out driving with John. After luucli saw some more mine. lie Thursday. Driving. Beastly, sluggish tort of pony. Ruins again; really can't stand any more of 'cm. Beginning to rain. She Friday, ltaiuing heavily. Nothing to do. Dear John seems fidgety, poor fellow.

She Saturday. Still raining. John is quite dull, and doetm't seem to talk to one much; it really seems as if he were getting tired of me already. What is to be done ? He Saturday. Can't stand this any longer. Nelly is quite tiresome sometimes. Suggest poing back to town by 3 50 traiu. She agrees at once. Hurrah, what nn escape! MARY JANE. A SOLEMN WARNING. "Velocipedes are all the rage," fcaid Tomkins, "I will one engage, And on it scour the plain. J'll make the wondering public blink, And with my grace, I rather think, Astonish Mary Jane !" Tie hired the swift velocipede Jle mounted on his two-wheeled steed. To charm his Mary Jane. iJnhappy Tomkius, luckless Johu! Vox he no sooner had got on Than he was off again. They picked him up, and brushed his knees, And he recovered by degrees, Though sorely racked with pain, lie calmly thought tho matter o'er, And thought he'd wait a bit before Astounding Mary Jane. And then he set himself to learn The way to mount, and run, aud turn, And labored might and main To master that unruly beast, intending, when he'd learnt, to feast The eyes of Mary Jano. But days went by weeks months and still Jle had a tendency to spill His struggles were in vain! Meanwhile a chap who took no heed Of a two-wheeled velocipede Went courting Mary Jane. Tie got on quicker with his suit Than Tomkins with his two-wheeled brute And did such speed attain, That on the day our Tomkins strode Bicycling to his love's abode ile'd married Mary Jane ! MORAL. Now, lovers, by this tale take heed Remember, a velocipede To Cupid is a fool for speed; For Love the race will gain. While yon are figuring about On bicycle great swells no doubt! A Bwell may come and cut you out, And win your Mary Jano. Amended Proverb. When rogues fall out, honest men have a chance of doing a little swindling on their own account. A rolling stone isn't the beet scat you can find n the edge of a precipice. Birds of a feather don't contribute much to the manufacture of feather-beds. Where there's a will it may he found advisable to prove it in court. Pony for the Pope. The Tope his blessed golden rose Whom to send, this time, no one know. With his Perc Hyaciuthc he knows, Perhaps, as little what to do. A Nrrvona Hvatem. Ellen "My goodness, auaty 1 We huve boon looking for you everywhere, and dinner is waiting!" Aunt Jemima. "I can't help it, my dear. I always sit in the coal-cellar during a thunder storm. Tell your pupa to keep a wing hot for inc." W'Uy t ''Why don't the men propose, mamma, Why don't the men propose if Each one seems coming to the point, And then away he goes." "They're frightened at your cost, my dear; They're thinking of your clothes' ODDS AND ENDS. A Lesson. It is stated that a man at Mont real, to play a trick on a fellow-lodger, drank of a good deal of a bottle of whisky which the lat ter had strongly impregnated with morphia. He died in consequence. Let this be a warniag, not merely against taking morphia, but against taking more-than-isgood-for-yo. A Juvenile Delinquent. It is sad to wit ness the propensity evinced even by the very yenng to break tho laws of wcuoi and (num. We saw a little rogue the other day, barely two years of age (ah ! you may stare), who had his lather's eyes and his mother's nose and chin.

Jake replied soothingly and sympathetically: 'O Jim! I wouldn't sell him." A story is told of a young man who was go ing West to open a jewelry-store. When asked w hat capital ho had, he replied, "A crowbar." A oirl in Wisconsin swallowed forty percussion-caps. Her mother refrained from spanking her for fear of an explosion. Si'RiGGiNS says ho once prevented a severe case of hydrophobia by simply getting on a high fence and waiting until tho dog left.

A hypocritical condoler with his misfortunes onco visited him iu tho mad house, and said in a whining tone: "What brought you here, Mr. Hall?"' Hall signifi cantly touched his brow with his finger, and replied: "What will never bring you, sir; too much brain." "James! James !" cried an author's wife, "I have been calling you this half hour; and dinner is getting quite cold." "Oh! is it ? Well, you know, I have just killed the cruel old uncle. His property, of course, comes to his nephew, Charles, and I am marrying nim to Emily. Keep the mutton hot till the ceremony is over, there's a dear."

Great Excitement In consequence of the advertisement of a book entitled "The Bcggyn hof; or, Tho City of tho Single," tho Series Edi tor has received countless letters from unmar ried ladies, begging of him to tell them where this interesting city is, and whether tho single who inhabit it are single gentlemen. His private secretaries are busy night and day answering theso inquiries. Imperial Improvement. The latest bulletin from Paris states that the Emperor is much better. We havo always thought there was room for improvement iu him. Why is the first person singular, present tenso, indicative mood, of the verb "to bo" like a great kingdom ? Because it's Siam. A Good Notion There has always been a little difficulty in English iu distinguishing be tween "story a narrative of facts" and "story a tissue of falsehoods." Suppose in the future we always spell the latter "Stowe-ry." A Plain Answer. An advertisement in a contemporary commences thus, "Can you iden tify your watch ? Can you recognize your um brella ?" We can identify the former, having a good memory for faces. As to tho latter, wo lent it a fricad some time ago and have never had a chance of recognizing it since.

Now don't all you journalists speak at once ! But here's an oponing: T11K PRESS Wanted, an Eilltor, for a small country paper, just commencing, will be required to report and assist at case. Address, stating age, terms, and qualitlcaiioiiH, to Mr. , etc. The sort of editor required is one of a compo site or compositor order. He will have to be strong-minded enough to "set-up" his own opin ionsto "lead" (N. ii., not "conduct") his own leader. He must be able not only to manage au editor-ship, but to look after the "galleys.' 'We wish the small country paper may get him! A Paris journal has a light touch, iu speak ing of the elections, which seems to show that the bitterness of feeling so much remarked in Paris politics is not quite universal. In the rivalry of candidates to appear entirely sub servient to their constituents, one of them de clares that he has just put a night-bell at his door for the use of citizens who have votes ! A Self-evident Fact. Whatever else the Spaniards may want, they ought not to want food; for have they not a" Provisional Govern ment ? Tub Ai ( tioneer's Motto Buy and buy.

I will have dlBciplino on board of this 'ere vessel !" "My dear," asked a husband, on observing new striped hose on his only heir, "why have you made barber-poles of our Ernest's legs ?" "Because he's a liitle shaver," was tho reply. Said an astronomer to a bright-eyed girl, when talking of rainbows: "Did you ever see a lunar bow, miss?" "I have seen beaux by moon light, sir, if that's what you mean," was the sly rejoinder. A Chicago paper makes tho following mar riage announcement: "Pride Stillman Ga lena, November 8. No cards. Presents, 5000. Special train. Letters from Grant, Sherman, and Sheridan." Suppose a canal-boat heads west-northwest for the horse's tail, and has tho wind abeam with a flaw coming up in tho south, would the captain, according to maritime law, be justified in taking a reef iu the stovepipe without asking tho cook ? A physician walking out with a friend of his said to him:-V'Lct us avoid that pretty little woman you sco there on the left. She knows me, and casts on me looks of indignation. I attended her husband." "Ah! I sec; you had tho misfortune to despatch him." "On the con trary," replied the doctor, "I saved him." Rev. Du. Breckinridge was examining once a dull stadent who had an inveterate habit of answering one question by asking another. "Where," inquired the doctor, "was Solomon's temple?" "Hem do you refer to its location, Lr ?" "Yes," growled the doctor In his deepest tones. "J refer to its locution, or to anything elre about It that may be embraced under tho word 'where.' " ' The Paris journals havo dressed np an old American joke, which seems to give them great pleasure, thus: Near the Invalided, yesterday, a gentleman stopped a rab and asked the driver, ,' "What will yon tke to drive ma to 8t. Cloud ?" . : The driver, thoughtfully, "Seven francs, sir." "I do not ask you the price of your horee," was tho reply. A Derivation.

It Is as great a consolation to a young woman as it is to an old politician to have "a good cry." AN INDIAN TRADITION. Tlio Story of Hie Delude on hle Continent. From the Detroit I'ott. The following .rather singular tradition which exists among the Fapago Indians re specting Monteznma, their founder, and the deluge, ban, we bolievo, never yet appeared in print; at least, not in its proHcnt Bhape. It was related by Captain Con Ouan, an aged and intelligent member of the tribo, and was taken down from his lips by an interpreter far Judge Henry T. Backus, of Arizona Ter ritory, and formerly of this city. Judge HuckiiR has viBited many of the places men tioned in the legend, and Lrs been an eye witnesH of tho quadrennial feast still cele brated at the cave. He represents the Tapa goes ns being nominally Catholics, yet cling ing to their national traditions with great tenacity, and cherishing the memory of Mon tezuma with even more than saintly venera tion. Tho tradition of the deluge is interesting in its relation to the origin of the Indians of the country, and especially the ancient tribes who lived in the twilight of civilization, until the Spanish Christians annihilated them. Did they bring this tradition with them from tho Asiatic continent? Or, did they come in cttfitaet with the people of the Old World, antecedent to any historical evidence of that fact, from whom they derived this tra dition? These are inquiries naturally suggested by the following narrative. Montezuma, it will be understood, is not tho monarch of that name whom Cortes dethroned. It is the generic term of their rulers, like Tharaoh, Cu sar, etc. Before the flood men lived to a great age, so that they lost their teeth nnd crept about like children. After a time they would get new teeth, nnd walk upright again like men in the prime of life. Then it was that tho Great Spirit created the mountains and peopled the earth on all sides. Then, too, animals talked like men, nnd were the first to tell of tho approaching flood. About this time appeared Montezuma, who collected a large quantify of gum from a plant called ciiicM, and with this gum, which is said to be insoluble in water, and with other mate rials, he built a large vessel, in which he took refuge, closing and sealing tho door behind him. In like manner a cayote or prairie dog crept into a large cane stalk and closed the ends against the water. Tho Hood came up to tho highest mountains, nnd reached even the birds, which cried like men, with flight. When the waters came down, Montezuma and tho cnyote landed at Cerro Briettn, which .mountain some believe to bo Montezuma's vessel. According to another tradition they landed in the centre of the earth, and, having come out of their vessels, Montezuma noticed the trail of a beetle, which he followed until ho found the beetle fast in the mud. He then turned back, and meeting the cayote they embraced each other in grief. Montezuma sent the cayoto southward to find the sea, which it noon found and returned, when it was sent on the same errand to the north ward, but returned unsuccessful. They then lay down to sleep, when Montezuma dreamed that ho should form men aud women out of clny, which he accordingly did, making two for each nation . Meanwhile the cayoto sat behind him also making men, but the latter were ill-formed, bo that Monteznma ordered them to be removed. His own people mul tiplied rapidly, and built a large city on the north bank of a river, supposed to be at the mouth of Salt river, in Arizona, where the remains of large ditches are still visible. Monteznma next travelled southward, fol lowed by large numbers of people. In ac cordance w ith a dream, he thrust a rod into the earth, and water flowed thence, which is the origin of the springs at Santa Rosa and elsewhere. After a time the Groat Spirit appeared to Monteznma as an old man, and asked to baptize the people, that they might live beyond the sky after death, but Monte zuma became angry and killed the Great Spirit. Then the latter arose from the dead by night and repeated the request, when Montezuma grew angry again, declared that ho would take his people to heaven by a tower, and killed tho Great Spirit a second time, leaving him on the ground, where he was dragged about as a plaything for four years, lie then returned to heaven, remov ing the sun further from the earth as he ascended. After a long interval he descended again with the same request as. before At this time Montezuma was living at the Casu Blanco, or white house, close to the Pimo villages, on the G ila river. The inside of the house was overlaid with pure gld. A third time he threw the Great Spirit, but tho latter now becoming angry, threw a louse into Spain, which led to an invasion by the Spaniards. Twice did Montezuma meet and repel the invaders, but bofore the third en gagement the golden ring flew from the finger of his daughter to the linger of the Spanish commander, and the silver ring of the latter flew to the finger of the former. Thus did she become leagued with the enemy, and when they were out of provisions she pre vailed upon her people to threw them tomulct instead of arrows, and thus they were fed at Montezuma's expense. After many severe conflicts the Spaniards were victorious, when the traitorous Princess demanded the hand of the commander in marriage. He agreed to this on condition that an eagle which he set free should alight on a prickly pear tree. The eagle did so, and the commander started to celebrate the mar riage at the pear tree, being followed by a large train of Tapagoes; but, under the pre text of getting violins, powder, etc, he travelled on and on until the Indians all de serted him. Henceforth, na the story goes, Montezuma made no improvements, and his peoplo were scattered over the country. He afterwards deposited the archives of the Tapogo and Pinto nations in a cave near Santa llosa, and ordered that they celebrate a feast there every fourth year, which custom is ntill observed The nation gradually diminished, and Monte zuma wandered about until the Indians have lost all traces of him.
