A TOUCHING INCIDENT
The following incident of travel is nar
rated by a correspondent of the 'Daily 'Sara
togain.' It took &ace on the Renssolear and
Saratoga railroad, on one of the Northern
trains, between Saratoga and Whitehall :
_—When the traimhalted_at_Sa.ratoga r among_i
the passengers from the West_came a man
of about thirty years of age,—elbowing—his
way through the crowd, and bearing in his
arms a child. He was a poor roan, his clothes
were poor, he looked poor. Around his hat
was worn a piece of soiled, worn crape. It
was evidently 'a - lrifie mourning his scanty
means would permit, for the mother of the
child was dead. The man was rough in
exterior, yet his face was an . honest one.—
.11e headed the baby awkwardly, yet there
was a tenderness in his sad look that showed
the purity of a father's love: The little- fel
low lay asleep on his coarsely clad knee; a
stray sunbeam glanCed across its tired face.
They were both tired, the father and the
child, for they had come from the far west
and as he placed his hard, toil-worn hand to
shield it from the golden rays, there was in
hie look a mixture of sadness and care, as if
his pent up feelings had been so crowded
back into the inner cells of his heart that
even tears could have been no relief to the
hidden anguish that was making his life a
misery. The poor child cried; it might be
the little thing was tired, it might be •it
missed its moter; perhaps it was hungry ;
perhaps it was sick, and so it cried. The.
tears rolled down its baby cheeks ; the father
wiped away the dew-drops as . they fell. and
then tried to feed it. He was so awkward
with the bottle— his had been a life of toil
and hardship—and he knew not how to give
his darling its nourishment. As ho made
'effort after effort to stub the cries and check
the tears of his motherless babe, how he
must have missed her who in his life of la
bor and privation bad been his solace and
comfort - I — An unbidden tear started to hip
eye, but be brushed it quickly away. All
who saw him pitied him. At length a wo
nian,,riohly appareled, with an infant rest
ing on the lap of her nurse beside her—she
had been watching - the man—said in a gentle
tone, 'Give me the child.' The poor fellow
looked at her with a look of gratitude, for
there was a mother's tenderness in her voice.
With humble resignution, as though it were'
gain to part with him, even for a momemt,
he gave her his boy. The woman took it;
its soiled clothes rested on her costly silk;
its tiny head Was soon beneath her shawl,
'end in a moment all was still. Like the
Greciaridaughter who, through — the iron bars
fed her starving father, so did this high-born
lady from her breast feed the hungry child,
and whm, otl . her gentle bosom, the little
one lay in calm and unvexed sleep, she put
aside the. 4401. The father's heart swelled
with grailrudit: Hi said, as a tear' welled
in his eye; and his voice ins thick with e
motion 'Tba r nk
_you. 111 take him now.'
Then
motion,
astute spoke forth, as she
gently answered, 'Not yet; you will wake
hitu," and . fur Mile after mile that noble
hearted woman - bold that poor man's child,
and it was not until her own babe required
such nourishment na.only a. mother can give,
she gently rose and placed the stranger boy
with its father. ' '
An old gentleman was relating a story of
one of the St. Lawrence boatmen : 'tie is a
hard head,' said he, - 'fur he stood under an
oak in a thunder storm, iheriihe lightning
struck the tree, and he dodged it seventeen
times, when finding he could not dodge it
,any loes,er, he stood and took:nine claps in
succession on Ma heal and never even Inch

Fishionable Weddings.
There was a time when a something 'holy
clung about - the breathing or marital. vows,
, --whon the mutual pledges which tfrusouls
'chose to r inake Were too sacred to'be sPoken
in the midst of a curious, 'gaping crowd.—
There are yet a few quaint, ' old-fashioned
people, who believe the holiness of those
vows not all departed, and. who question the
appropriateness of transforming the wedding
occasion into a free exhibition of fineries
for the gratification of the
,inquisitive.
These old-fashioned ones are not up to the
age, perhaps, and present 'lotions and sus-•
toms may be correct and worthy.;
But do not our better sensibilities cry out
against fashionable marriage extravagances ?
Is there aught of sacred solemnity attaching
to a ceremony to which the public . flock as
to a criminal's-trial - or - thcep - Cial' -- Whiii

place, are not the vows breathed robbed of
their deepest and purest meaning ?.
In our opinion the boastful, brilliant at
tendant upon a fashionable wedding is un
maidenly and indelicate. The bride who
allows it may be very lovely and charming,
hut "we fear she lacks — tire one crowning
grace of womanhood--truo modesty. She
makes, at least, a very common .thing of au

An article written by Mrs. Lucia G.
Calhoun, which recently appeared in the
New York Ledger,"contains some very perti
p.-ent-remar6 Ore •
.peal that the lady makes to her young friends
is so forcible and womanly that tve cannot
reflain
. Ironi copying it :
'Oh, girls ! are you children of revolu
tMnary mothers 7 Are you daughters arid
sisters and sweethearts of men who fought
out late battles, and found life other than a
joke and a sham ? Are you akin to the wo
man who unhelii their hands and nursed
them,living, and buried them, *dead, and
can you make your lives a wretehe.d pre
tense front maidenhood to death 7
'lf you love a man with heart and soul,
(p_r_iivided,of—coursethat—he
ioyes_you,aud—asks you.) If you- don't
love him, don't marry him though you die
an old maid at ninety in the Asylum for In
digent Old Maids. But let your wedding
be simple, and quiet, and beautiful with
love, but not with money. If_yon aro rich,
do this in the name of grace, and for the
sake of example. if you are poor, do it in
the name of honesty, and for the sake of a
pure conscience And - in either event, - do
it as an oaring to delicacy, and' the fitness
of things.
'lt you have wedding presents; then
most of them will come because the givers
love you, and,. loving, desire to give the
gifts of !eve. Treasure them sacredly, but
on the wedding day son& them to the bank,
or hide them in the attic, or •push them
under the bed, or put them in the refrigera
tor, or do anything but shake theta in the
face of the public and say, thekcd how
pleased I am with my rattle— hoW tickled
with my straw."'--Rural New Torker.
ParsT ON WiIEAT.—A farmer writing on
this subject says :—This is a question that
has for along time agitated the minis of in
telligent farmers, but it has been settled to
my mind, at least, by a series of experiments.
I am satisfied that it does in at least ninety
cases out of one hundred. _
I have sown the wheat with and' without
the grass seed, and have
.never seen rust
when there was no grass; whilst in the same
field the rust has a&eted the wheat. The
grass holds the dampness at the roots of the
wheat, and when the sun shines out very
warm, pioduces the 'blight. Besides, the
wheat standing alone will produce five bush•
els more to the acre than when the grass is
sown. I mean now, that .this will be the
average difference.
But the question arises, when shall the
grasse be sown ? I answer after the wheat
harvest. Plow the field and prepare it
smoothly, and sow the grass seed of whatever
kind you desire, and your crop of grass the
coming season will be equally as good, if not
better than if it were suwa with the wheat.
Fannors, try the above; and ray word for
it, the resell will be satisfactory.
OUT AT NlGllT.—Fathers and mothers,
look out for your boys when the shades of
evening have gathered around you 1 Where
are they then ? Are they at home, - at the
pleasant, social fireside, or are they running
the streets ? Are they gaining a street ed
ucation ? If so,. take care; the chances of
their ruin are many. • There is scarcely any
thing so destructive to their morals-as run
ning abroad at eight. Under cover of dark
ness they acquire the education of crime ;
they learn _co be rowdyish, it not 'absolutely
vicious; they catch up 10-se. talk, they hear
sinful thoughts.and they. see obscene things,
and they become - reckless stud riotous. If
you would save them from vulgarity, 8190
them from ruin,save them from prison, see

than env young man has told the chaplaiu of

of his downward course that finally brou:_4lit
him to the felon's cell. Let parents.seleaue

Old Bride ana_Young-Groom
ys ago a wedding_took_placc—on
the South Side - which has created something
of a sensation, a lady of eighty-four years
of ago being united to a gushing youth of
about twenty. It is certainly a singular al=
fair. The lady is a widow and wealthy,
, owninc , eansiderable property, and having
besidg the sum of about nine thousand dol
lars in gold, and a number of government
bonds laid away.- The property was left by
her husband, who died some years ago, leav
ing a large family, The property of the
husband was divined between the witlowand
the children. The widow. et late years has
not been. on good terms with the children;
and has threatenalmore than once that she
would marry again rather than leave them
the property, Three years ago bha came
very near carrying the threat iuto'executiou
but on that oeoaaion the would ba bride
groom considered it was a little too much,
even with the money—that difference of o
ver fifty years between their ages.. Some
weeks ago, a young wan boarding at the
house of a relative of the old lady was taken
sick. During his illness the old lady atten
ded him, and when he had nearly recovered,
intimated to him that she had a large amount
of property, anti that she wanted to got 'mar
ried. 11 he would marry her and take care
of her fur the few years she lived, the prop.
erty should be his.
We know not how much persuasion it
took to aceoinplish' the object—if, indeed,
any was needed. This wo do know—a few
days ago Justice Tucker, of the Eighth ward
united the two in holy bonds of wedlock—
the anxious bride of eighty four summers,
atul the gushing youth of twenty. The wed
ding toes pluee at a residence uu the South
Side, in the presence of only a few friends.
As soon as they learned of the affair, the
relatives of the lady were naturaliy very in
dignant, and well tney might be. They con
sider the affair a most scandalous one," and_
have threatened. to arrest the Justice who
married the parties and the gentleman at
whose house they were married: Meanwhile
the happy pair live as cozily 'as a brace of
turtle doves, their whole souls apparently
wrappiiil up i u each other.—.Nittruukee,
