CAPTAIN TIM'S MARRIAGE
in order to make the following more intelli
gible to the reader, we will remarl: that 8101 l

a pretty niece ; Captain Tim a doughty military
oteer, and farmer of mature years, well to du

gets his wagon "stuck" in a slotigli. 13y the

Lucy, propures, a license, and -wens and wins
her in the following expeditious t9tincr
"The sip .made a glorious ttapiug of
bathing wagon and driver, dog and horses, in
a cheerful . light, drying up the roads, and
brigiug out many singers on the till leaflcs
branches on:the wayside_. Since thp same hoar
on the day bef'fre, how much had Imppened to
the commander-in-chief of the •military forces

hovel hove.in sight.
A cheerfai smoke now curled gracefully np
from the"huge throat of. the old chimney, and
the bleached pile of bones which lay aroundit
looked farlm formidable with the sun shining
on them. • To aofteu the sombre look of the
pile of logs, is young girl stood by them dresa
ed in short gowp and petticoat, with . a bhp
handkerchief balled over- her head. •It was.
bucy---Captaiß Tim knew her -in au instant.
Now; he had hpfin trying all the, morning to

"Oh, I forgot," said he; "I brought Aunt
Moll a present; it's ;v the wagon. I'll get it
in a minute." Don he ran after it, and, with,
snuff and tobacco, p,;:opitiatory offering to the
goddess within, he approached the, hovel. 1:!,) ,
this_ time Lucy hail vanished, 11;13 . 1 the dolt
stood wide open.
"Good morning," , said• Captain Tim to the
old crone who was smoking in tin chimney
Rimer; "I thought as I was going by, I'd just
drop in and leave you a little present for help
bigline along last night."
"You lie !" said Moll; "it's Luco
,ye're
tMer, and you know 4t ii."
"Well, so it is, gropy. You do know every
thing, don't ye ? I got the licen i se safe in my
pocket. I want to marry her, and take her
home with um. I've got a nice farm, I'm well
to do in the world, and I s'pose I've sowed my
oafs.wit
I can give her a god home, and
take good care of her. Try your

Moll refilled her pipe, and looked straight
into the ashes., rockea to and fro a long time in
silv i cce, Captain Tim grew very inpatient.
"I know all about ye," said she, at last;
"yoµ may as well have her as anybody, far's I
know. She will ramp some day,—more fool
she,—she's got it in b t u. Luce—Luse !
Luce came at the call. "Captain Tim, here,
wants you to marry him. You Inv do as
you're a mind about it. What say, eh Speak
out—don't act like a simpleton !"
Lucy, with her sparlliul„ eyes, 1 / 9n oked in
Captain Tim's good natured face. Siitile met
smile, and heart met heart.
"What do you say ?" roared Moll; he "don't
want to keep his' team waitin,y all day."
"Yes, I will marry him," said Lucy.
"Well, then, be off with you now, Mr.
Ciiptain. Dun i t waste your time in courting.
You'll have enough of her arter you're mar
ried. Off with ye, and be hack here two
weeks from to-day. Ye ain't such a fool es to

See to it, new, ye don't make any talk about it,

nothing but gip clothes on her back ; I tell ye
that beibrehaud. Mind' ye, too, ye're tel bring
no parson to citli-ken these doors."
"We can go, down town to get Tarried,"
said the Captain.
"Snit yourself abOut that; it's all 'one to

"Good as any name," said Moll with a grtint-
ing kind of chuckle.
"All reg'lar, then ?"
"Reglar," :said Moll, with a huge puff.
"1 1 11 be here, then, two weeks liven to-day,"
said Captain Tim.
"See that you don't come after then, that's
all ; so off with you now'."
Captain Tim could think of nothing fuether
to remark. He moved toward the door.—
Lucyfollowed hia,. lie looked once in her
eyes ; they were ewitnining in tears. Ile
stopped ou the outer step ; he wanted to say
something. "Don't cry," said he, in a whis
per, "I'll be good to ye." Her head dropped

a little, and Capttiin Tim somehow—he never
could tell exactly how himself—found his lips
on her cheek. Tweuty-five`year's had Veen
since his, lips had touched so soft a cheek ;
then'hekissed his last farewell to his ujother.
"Luce!" growled out old Moll. Cliptain
Tim started ass if shot; he ran to his tea u, he
whistled to liowsen, he put on his lash, and
was soon among his .ownfniilitir hills."
The foliowing• story of an ancient joker, who
is now dead, but who has left e t large fain t ily of
that particular class of children known as
b'hoys, is going the . .round of the papers with
out any credit. As the story goes:—
The old gentleman was a strict governor,
though when outside he would . occasionally
" let up," drink, talk horses, and go in for the
chances. The boys knew this—boys generally
do—and whilp,they respected the governor,"
on account of his age, they positively ob
jected to his propensities; for humbug. Oue
Sunday, the g4efuor was reading the Bible,
and while thus piously engaged, the oldest
. boy, procured a.set of dice, and haying spotted
all the low . sides, so that be could not get less
than fifteen,, commenced throwing them on a
chair. The. , goy.ernor came, to a hard . word,
looked up and saw ; the garflc. Then came the
following conversation:

Governor.—Well, then, you go pAt them
away; throw them in the stove—no pu , t them
