A MARRIAGE—NOT QUITE.
A somewhat singular affair in the way of get
ting married, or rather of not getting married,
occurred in Andover, on Thursday evening last
The story is this:—The H<m. ———, and Mis*
-had been published, ar.d were to b>- mar
ried tin Thursday evening. Great pieparations
had been made. Some friends of the intended
bride had come from Boston, and more weie eve
ry moment expected from Newbury port, to at
tend the wedding. The bride’s clothes, the cake,
the wine, &c. &c. had all been previously con
veyed to the house of the bridegroom The ho
Itorable bridegroom got himself in readiness, pro
ceetJed with his chaise to the residence of his
cum s;>osn, almost—sent his horse and chaise
back to hiring his sistei — went into the house,
where the gav company was fast being assem
bled—took off his boots and put on his pumps—
when ail of a sudden he proposed that the marri
age should be postponed! The man wass'oical;
no plausible reason could he give, for the life <>f
him, for his motion of postponement j but as for
being married that night, he would not! T espi
i its of the bride were rousrd! —ihe mother too
felt the indignity! Site cautioned the honoiablc
gentleman to beware how he thus trifled with th*
fe lings of her daughter and the honor of her fa
mil* • She told him it might not be well lor him
after her sons should have anive I Ir.mi Newbu
r\|>'irt. But the stoical bridegroom took «are to
avoid that, bv deliberately exchanging his pumps
fur In- !» mis,’resuming his hat, cloak &<. and de
parting for his own residence, singly and alone.
()u hi* way, he met In* sister, going to the wed
ding. whom he to'd In turn about for there
vvou it be none. Home they wen', shut up the
house, with the bride’s i Indies, cake, wine ami
other marriage paraphattajia, in the same, and
left the eomjmnv al the bride’* residence, to en
tertain themselves in the best manner they might.
W hat followed mav he better imagined than des
ciibfd. with the assistance of two Hems, viz:
the honorable bridegiomn has scarcely been out
since; and two chaises, which brought rompany
from Boston to the wedding, owing t.» the disap
pointment of the evening, g»t smashed to pieces.
We have Hu* facts, above stated, direct from
Andover. We purposely avoid mentioning
I names; but the stoi v is in the mouths of all in
that lown.—Haverhill Irin
We leain, sivs me Boston Transcript. That
the Gentleman alluded to in the above paragraph
was a member of the Homo ruble Senate, and that
iIn* lady i# of the highest respectability The
only cause assigned lor the singular lotiduct of
this "•eiitleinari, (between whom and the lady
; there ha* existed an ardent attadiment lor near
ly three years) was the caprice of the moment,
originating in nervous and hyp choimriac feelings
to which lie has been sometime -.object.
We owe, perhaps, an apology to the friends of
the parties, in republishing the article above quo
ted, or adding any comments of our own, bit
tlie mischief being once done, and the story told
by the Ins being in full circulation here, with
various addition*, amplification*, notes and stric
tures, »t ha* pleased us to dons we have done.
And let D une Gossip prate herself to sleep.
A TRAGIC TALK. TOLD TO A “ T”
from tlie C-tnic. Ojffering, J'or 1833.
Two tired traveHci* 'lied to trace their track
tluough the tangled thickets of Tewksbury; they
• took two or three turnings through the trees, but
their toiling* there tended to tantalize them tho
roughly, by tempting them to traverse thorough
fares that transiently turned (they thought) tow
ards the town, then the turf terminated Headier
crons'V in track ess thickets. Ihu9 they tar
ried till twilight’* thick gloom tended to increase
their tribulation, and to thwart their ta^k; the
tallei traveller, a templar, turning to the tired
trooper that trustly tended him, told httu that
j ’tw.’rt* better to trust themsrlvc* to a temporary
! tent Ol trees, man iw iry uir huiuuj
! ting task of tenaciously toiling turough tenebi i
i ouT thickets. 1 ristram, the trooper (though
i thinking the templar’s touch of torpor very tire
some,) tacitly turned to take his horse, that trem
! bled, thotoughly toil worn; suddenly tremendous
; thunder taxed their temerity, and a terrific tem
pest threatened to terminate tragi'ally their tri
als. The temjKtr Theodore’s Minid steed, terri
fied at the tempestuous tumult, tore through tan
I'-led tracts and turgid torrents, the trained horse
' of Tristram trvmg to trace the trample through
I the turmoil. Thus they passed the territory ol
! trees, and the tortured templar was thrown be
; math a lower whence a twinkling taper threw a
t tremulous light through the tiacery window of
! a tail tuiret. Tris'ram’s thundering “tattoo”
1 summoned the timely aid of a tram of torch
bearers; these took Theodore to the tower hall,
I where Ids trance terminated to show him a trans
jeendem beauty of twenty, timidly tending him,
innd tc’ilingMier tirewomen their different tasks
| for treating the sufferer.
The toilette ol the lady Theresa consisted of a
! tiffany tunic li>*d with thread gold tassals at. the
throat, a taffety turquoise-colored train, a Tur
kish turban, aiid transparent tissue veil thrown
hack from the temples; ’twere tedious to try to
transmit the tempting traits that transfixed the
templer’s transported ga/.e, as, with tremulou*
tongue, he tried to tell his thanks; timidly she
turned from the tone, her twining, tendril like
tresses thrown aside betraving the transient Uni
his tribute to this transcemlant treasure hud sem
thrilling even to her throbbing temples and wel
turned throat.
Theodore transported to the tesselated and
tapestried throne-room, told to Theresa tales ol
.he tent, the triumphant tilit and tournament;
their te'eatete. tending frequently to tenderei
themes; and ten days (tedious to Tristram.tran
nent to Theodore) transposed the trembling lo
ver into the trothed of 'Theresa.
Theobald the Thane, the tyrant of Tewksbu
ry. kept the orphan Theresa in thrall, that timid
girl tolerating the tutelage lie had treacherously
taken, through terror of his temper.
The time that the templar tarried at 'Tewksbu
ry Tower, the absent Thane traversed his vas*
tract of territory, thinly tenanted through his
thirst of thrift and tyrannic treatment to the te
nants. 'Treacherous tempered, he trusted not
to Theresa thoroughly, but took the trouble to
turn back to the tower, (transformed to a travel
ling trinket-seller,) tampering with the tattling
tire-women, who (thus tempted) told that the
templar had trespassed over the lower threshold
and triumphantly tarried there, taking with taste,
talent, ta- t. arfd tenderness to the tempting
• •treasure of the turret.” This tantalizing tale
tormented the tyrant, who, throwing the travel
ler’s iravestie towards the terrified tire-women, |
trod tlu tower hall, traced the true lovers to
their trellised turf terrace, and treacherously
thrust Ins two edged toledo, at the templar, |
(then talking tranquilly to Theresa;) that tender ;
girl transiently turning ere the threatened turpi
tude took effect, threw her taper form towards
Theodore, too late to transmute the terrible
thoughts of the tyrant, whose thrust traversed
the twain, and thus they tasted death together, a
two fold triumph to the terrific tempered Then-,
bald.
This triumph terminated tragically I r is tram j
trenched behind thick trees, traced the thane, (
throughout this traiterous transaction, took aim j
twice, though terror took from the truth of the (
first, the shaft twisting into a tall tree:—twang!
this time the truer dart transfixes the tyrant,
terminating his turbulent thraldom. I lie tu
’’ - . 1 ___ _
muituous tonesoi i»u ui uu«c
turrets, made the trainbnd through towards the
tot race to take Tristram to the torture; that trus
ty trooper turned tauntingly to them throwing
his ttuncheon triumphantly towards the tardily
tamed tvrant,—just then the talismanic tone of
thiilliug trumpets told of timely aid, and twenty
teaij 1 ,r tr topers turned round the tower.
'ihetiagic tale terminates thus; because ha
ving already used ever oilier kind of 1, 1 could
onlv de-cribe th? buttle with “ Gunpowder E.
which might a fleet the nerves of uoy fair readers;
so hear is an end to the ’Jease.
