How we got through the dressing in time, I don't know. That dreadful Miss Minlrin, the milliner, never sent home my veil till nearly 10 o'clock; and as soon as I had put my dress on we dis covered that the said intelligent Miss Minken had left all the tackings in. It was 10:45 before they began to put on my veil, and everybody knows what tame that takes. And there was poor darling Fred down in the church, in a terrible state I was certain. He had come over bo early. I saw him drive past to the church y.hen I was only well, 1 neednt say now far advanced 1 was in my toilet. Not very far, I know. After a great deal of fussation, during which I had asked Pipcher Pipcher is my maid three times for the powder putt when I meant the pins, and four times for my goloshes when I meant gloves. Oh, dear, what a long sentence! well, after all this, 1 was ready at last Pipcher pulled out the train of my dress to its uttermost length; and leav ing its extreme end somewhere near my bedroom window, 1 proceeded to walk down stairs, concluding that I, like Bo- peep's sensible sheep, should manage to bring my tail behind me. Down in the hall was dear papa, pac ing to and fro in a perfect fever of ex citement, nervousness and sorrow, which. dear good man, he tried to conceal, but failed miserably. 1 suppose he was sorry to be losing his little girl. Suppose I I know be was. Was not 1 sorry very, very sorry to be leaving him, He had put on his cloves twice al ready, and had taken them off, and was proceeding for the third time to do like wise, when he discovered that he had a pair of shabby old driving gloves, in stead of the white kids that were slum bering neglected in his ciieet of drawers, between one very high white collar and two very large pocket handkerchiefs. 1 was by no means in the sprightly mood in which I may now seem to be indulg ing. On the contrary, I felt particularly sober, quiet and nervous; with a great rump surging ever upward in my throat, and no strength at all in my knocking knees. "Well, my dear," said papa, feebly jocular " ready at last ?" And I, having nothing more original to remark in response, intimated that was. And so off I went. The bridesmaids had, of course, gone down to the church lflng before. I was a great deal too frightened and flustered to say a word to papa as we walked along the garden path, and through the garden gate into the churchyard. There was no need for carriages. And, luckily, the day was mild, though in the winter; and bright though mild. I cannot attempt to describe the scene in church. -1 only saw a great, misty sea of laces and parti-colored raiment, end, in the midst of it all, my dear old darling he's not a bit old, you know, really standing and looking very white, I fancied, but very loving all the same. The organist was playing as we moved up the aisle; but what I have not the faintest conception. The only thing that I recollect in connection with the musical portion of the service was that the choir seemed to be a very unneces sary long time in getting through the psalm set forth for the special purpose. I also have a recollection that I poked out the wrong finger of the wrong hand to receive the ring, whereat Fred, got very red and flustered; and as, just at this juncture, somebody dropped a ponderous family prayer-book, the loose leaves of which fluttered gracefully in various directions, this interesting portion of the marriage ceremony was hardly performed with befitting dignity. However, "all things glad or sad" must have an end. So an end duly came to the service ; and, leaning on my dar ling's arm, my own true husband now forever; and, conscious that I was look ing very frightened and interesting with al for are not all bride? interesting t passed down the aisle, through thronging faces, out into the bright win ter noon, up the garden path into old home. Can I describe the kissing. and crying, and congratulations that took place in one room, or the breakfast laid and the speeches made in another: Fred's short response, or the doctor's rounded rhetoric; or the howling of darling's dog Soddles, when Muggles, the waiter we had in from Blankton-super-Mare, trod heavily on his tail, vainly endeavoring to look as though the said Muggles, was not testing quality of papa's wine in the corner be hind the door? Well, it was all over at last. The final grain of rice which by the way lodged in Fred's left whisker had been thrown we didn't go in for slippers, you see; last benediction had been bestowed the energetical besom of William gardener, who stood at the gate to catch the last of vs; and we were at length alone, my husband and I. husband t How strange, and yet how delicious it was. To think he was now mine forever. " Till death do us part, sounded very fond and true. But words conjured up no terror of "shadow feared of man." Death too far away a phantom to be feared. And I only heard a loving voice at side saying: " Darling, darling little woman Mine at last I" and felt perfectly with happiness accordingly. There were plenty of villagers at cottage doors and windows, and many a head bobbed beamingly at us, as rolled along station ward through winter sunlight The station reached a small, sleepy junction on the Bristol and Exeter line we got out of the prepared for the trial attendant couples newly wed. We should have be trayed ourselves just the same. I am sure, even if I had done as that dear nnx-1 old Fred wanted me to do. SuU really, to go away with tile old trunks ana snaoov oioines i jno. l eorua not, While Fred went to iret the tickets our tickets I saw the luggage. We were I going to town t What better place for winter honeymoon t And we meant to see a good deal mooning about with mouth, and ears open, like typical country cousins. Joseph, properest of coachmen, gave me an affectionate farewell. I don t mean, of coarse, that he embraced me ; seeing the train that was to bear us away rapidly nearing, he flicked Tommy, old horse, on the right flank, as a gentle reminder for the sa&e ox the laroiiy to look smart. With a trreat deal of ex- ceedingly unpleasant and, as I think, I unnecessary noise, the train came slow-1 ly in, groaning as in pain. . I The next thing was to secure a coupe to ourselves at least, Fred seemed to think so. After the passing of sundry ii i i ii ii.i smaii com, ana Having run me gaunuub of the inquisitive, surlv. amused, and in-1 different amonsr the nassen&rers. we suo-1 ceeded ; and found ourselves oomforta- bly ensconced with all our small traps about us. And when the train moved off, and my darling's hand came feeling soltly for my waist, and then stole lov- inelv around it. I forgot to be scandal- ized (why, indeed, should I .have been f ) and laid my nose on the shoulder of his shatrtrv Ulster, and felt as de- lightfully happy and as delicionsly I I my in he. the the by the to gether My the the was my t silly their a we the car riage, on frightened as any silly little bride of few hours could be.

Should I wait at the Padding ton terminus ? Should I get out at the next station, and take the first down- train back to Swindom? Should I? Oh, what should I do, with all the lug gage looking so terribly new and fresh and myself, in my smart, now tilings, an unmistakable case of bride ? And by this time my gloves were quite spoiled by the tears that were flowing recklessly and liberally down my woe begone cheeks. What would Fred do? If he wer.t to telegraph to the hotel to meet me on my supposed arrival, what would the people at the hotel think ? But perhaps he would send a message to Didcot to catch me there. This possibility cheered me considerably. bo I dried my tears, smoothed my disordered hair, pitched my bonnet into, its pristine shape, blew my nose, and sat bolt upright in readi ness for Didcot ; for by this time we were visibly slackening speed. I let down the windows for two reasons ; in hopes that the fresh air would blow away the traces of my tears ; and in or- der to be perfectly prepared to jump out the welcome platform, which I felt sure would restore my husband to me.

No, that's the fast train through only stops at Swindom and Beading," was consoling answer I received to my quiries. I could not leave Didcot nearly two hours. At this I retired the waiting-room, and sitting down in dark corner, gave way. I couldn t help it This was my marriage day. And my darling was not with me. Perhaps I should never ses him again.

Presently a porter came in to light gas. It was quite dark by this time. asked him to call me when the express was coming. The man eyed me as if suspected contemplated suicide. I neither his surmises nor suspi cions. I would have an eager gaze the train as it passed ; perhaps I might get a glimpse of my darling.

The facta, as they come out, coincide with the- dying declaration of Schell that his wife was the murderer that she was jealous of the girl; and, after enticing her into a lonely place, mur on dered her.

The facts in the case of the drowning the Bev. Dr. Porteous, a prominent Brooklyn divine, were as follows: There in the yawl a basket containing luncheon and liquors, and the members the party refreshed themselves occa sionally from its oontents. About 6 clock tne ladies and the two children Dr. Porteous were landed at Sea Cliff, and the Doctor proposed to go to Glen Cove and get a dnnk, no liquors being obtainable at Hea Clin. At Ulen Cove they drank several times, and Koop says that when they started to return1 Benja min was quite intoxicated; Dr. Porteous was somewhat under the influence of ardent spirits, and he himself was not altogether sober. Koop was rowinir the yawl, Dr. Porteous was sitting' in the stern, wnue .Benjamin, with jloop s two boys, was in the bow of the boat A theological discussion, which had com menced earlier in the afternoon, between Benjamin and Dr. Porteous, was renewed when they were some little way from the shore, and, as it grew more earnest, Benjamin started toward the stern of the boat, evidently for the purpose of sitting beside tno Doctor while continuing the conversation. As Benjamin passed Koop he stumbled. He was a heavy man, and his whole weight rested for a moment upon one foot, whieh was placed upon the gunwale of the yawl, and the boat was instantly upset and its occu- rta thrown into the water to struggle their Uvea as best they could.
