j a crowd of gaping children, nurses and iu- ;
I funts in peiuinbulntors, kinto the carriage.
' All this kind of thing is delightful to wo- 1
men, but to men unit to nervous incu 111 ;
particular it is one of tho greatest deteretits
to marriage. Hut the bridegroom's misery 1
docs not end with his getting iuto thu car- '
riage. Tho silly coachman and footman j
have encumbered themselves w ith enormous
and conspicuous favors ; and he is dragged j
through tho streets creating almost as much
speculation and provoking almost as much
womlcruicut us a new Loid Mayor in a gilt
coach.
Hut all this is trifling compared to what
is to follow. If the bride lives in a. square
he has the satisfaction of seeing the neigh
boring balconies crowded to catch a glimpse
1 of then, entering the house. If she lives iu
I a street, the windows tire tilled with heads,
I while servants gri through the nrei railings
j and crack many horrible jokes if there are a
j few men about. If she lives in tho country
a baud ol I. mils and yokels jostle eacli.otutr
about the doorwuy aud raise a bourse cry of
welcome when the carriage stops. One
would think that matrimony was a tiew in
vention ; that this marriage was the first
experiment. After the bridegroom has gone
gracefully thiough the ordeal of being cur.
tested to by the servants of tho house, whose
faces are iu llated with vatious congratula
tory expressions, lie has again to endure tho
shaking of hands aud the spasmodic assur
ances of good wishes that follow tho arrival
of the rest of tho party. Theu comes the
brcuUfast. A wretched old lady, who lias
been an intimate, friend of his family lor
twenty years, strives for a long titue unsuc
cessfully to catch his eyes; when caught,
the excluims in a loud voice that sho expects
great things fiom him when he returns
thauks. Hang her I He sits iu great mise
ry, trying to look unconcerned and chevrlul,
waiting for the moment when tho father ot
tLe bride shall propose their healths. Why
are not these detestable wedding breaklast
speeches banished t The rising of the father
is always preceded by souio iniuutes' silence.
Hverybody sympathizes with everybody else.
The thin man ut the bead of the table is
sallow, and his eyes are bleared. Nervous
ness has wrought this unpleasant eflect. He
know he wilf have to return thanks for the
i.i iiieamaids : and more than ouce he in
quires earnestly of himself what he has 1
done to merit his present sutlcriug. Tho
father of tho bridegroom is inougntiui ami
pale. He is meditating ins reply to tue
toast proposed to tho health of his w ife aud
himself. There is iunuite expectation among
the women; much dread among the men.
But the bridegroom is the most miserable
just now. Ho knows mat wnen ue arises
Ue will uotoniy nave 10 auuress tiioae wuoui

also whom he can't see. Bervants linger
behind the door to criticise tho declamation
of the husband of their young lady. Waiters
stand behind him, petrified by bis abrupt
aod nervous risiug iota immovable statues,
holding glasses aud bottles of champagne.
They know their business, do these atten
tive myrmidons, and will listen with the
most embarrassing silence. But even when
the bridegroom bat made bis speech bis
misery is oot over. Wbn tbe bride retires

TicRittiit.K TItAOKD occurcd near
Sewellsville, Ohio, lust month. One Thos.
Carr fell in love with a daughter of his em
ployer. Miss Louisa Fox, nnd desired to
marry her. Tho young lady being but four
teen years old the suit was denied by her
parents, and Carr at onco determined upon
murder. Ho procured a razor and started
for the house of Mr. Fox, when he met
Louisa on the road, accompanied byayonn-
ger brother. Carr turned about anil they
w alked together.
During the conversation
which ensued, the girl told bun that her i of the prepossessing appearance of American
grandmother, whose I1011-.0 she had just i ladies : "Wo have beautiful women in
left, had told her thut her parents had j France, ami so has every other nation, but
determiued that she should never keep his j of one thing I am quite sure, that no people
company again. The reply of Carr was that j can boast of more beauties umoug its women
"ho guessed both of them hud a short time j than tho Xorth Americans. Go to 0110 of

, he had hitherto kept concealed in his pocket,
and proccecded to cut her throat. The girl
threw up her hands, which were feiirlully
gashed in the struggle. It appears thut t-ho
did not make an outcry or plead for her life,
so rapidly was the deed consummated. Sub
sequent examination showed thut the vic
tim's head was nearly severed from her
body. The murderer returned to Sewells
ville aud borrowed a gun. Ho then proceed
ed by a roundabout course to a coal bunk,
near Mr. Fox s house, the home ol the uinr-
i dered girl, where he passed the night, during
which he ventured to the front window,
watching the neighbors while they prepared
I the body of the girl for burial. Tho next
day ho shot himself with tho gun, nnd
thinking the wound not fatal cut his throat
w ith a shoe kuil'e, just after which he was
discoveied ajid arrested. Ho will not recover
from bis wounds.

A writer iu tho Sliral Xcir-Yvrktr gives
his experience in cultivating his npplo trees
as low ns possible. Indeed,' he says that U
Hhode Island Gicotiing trees, now twenty
years old, stand only fifteen feet npatt in
the rows and are trained so low that three
fourths of the apples can be picked by hand
from the ground ! He has a single row of
theso trues twenty-six rods long, or about
twenty six trees in all. and says their pro
duct las-t fall was fifty five barrels best
marketable apples, which he sold at $'t per
barrel, and twenty five bushels second qual
ity sold ut 00c per bushel ; from the rest 11 -J
gallons of cider wero made and sold at ten
cents per gallon, and $7. .10 worth of dried
apples, making a total of ifioa. W'd should
say this w hs doing we'd even for central

On our ow n premiss we have always pur
sued tho same coutsu with our petr-tieos
and have succeeded well. Sometimes th.i
crops have been very large. Fruit-tress that
are trained low, can have their fruit gather

and will frequently bear perfect fruit within

To Mare Tavkt. Mrs. Julia A. Young,
in tho Western tiural, gives us ber mode of
making this sweetmeat of which children
are so fond, as follows :
Put into a psu, or some shallow vessel, a
quarter of a pound of butter and a pound of
brown sugar ; set it upon the stove and stir
together for fifteen minutes, or until a little
nf the mixture dropped into a basin or water
will kreak clean between the teeth without
sticking- to tbetn. Any flavoring that it
desired, as lemon, pine apple or vanilla,
should be added just before the cooking is
completed. The taffy, when done, should
be poured iuto a shallow dish, which is but
tered on the bottom and edges. By drawing
a knife across it when it is partially cool, ii
can easily be broken into squares. Molanies
may be used instead of sugar, but it in not
so brittle. This taffy is a mo&t excellent
thing lor a cough, and one wbicu chilUrti
