Our subscribers who receive thoir papers throueh the San Marcos postoffiee have no doubt noticed our new style of addressing their papers in print, and the date amxed to each name. It is soercely necessary tnat we should explain that those dates show the exaot time to which each subscriber lias naid. so that he can always see how his aocount stands. When a subscriber pays his subscription for a year or loss, we ad vance his figures accordingly. For instance, he has paid to January 1, 1888, or J 889, and pays for anothor year, we simply move ud his date another year to 1889, or 18'JO, as the case may be. By the way, it would give us very great pleasure to advance all our subscribers who have not paid up in the manner we have stated. Wo shall vory soon extend this admirable improved meth od of addressing and keeping subscription aooounts to the rest of our list. Married.

A a is nsual on wedding occasions in San Marcos, the church was crowded to its oa- paoity. The ushers were Messrs. J. M. Lyle and Joe King. The attendants were Mr. W. H. Nanoe and Miss Nannie Talbot, and Mr. R. W. Leavell and Miss Fannie Talbot. Mrs. Walter Denny played the wedding march. The bride appeared en costume, with veil and train. After the ceremony a reception was given to a select few. This appears to us to be a very congenial and appropriate union. The bride is a fair, accomplished and worthy lady, while the groom is one of onr steady-going young hnsincss men who are bound to sueoeou.
