THE NUPTIAL TIE.
Squire Maxwell I'scs A Very I'niquc Cere
mony And Should Ajply Tor A Patent At
Once-
One of tlie most interesting marriage
ceroinouk's in the history of tho "Tenjflf
of Justice," came off yesterday morning
Esf. D. G. Maxwell officiating.
Kurly in the morning John Smith and
Mary Jones, colored, camo in from the
country to be joined in huly bonds.
In the iruaeuco of the happy pair and
many dusky and u low white witnesses,
tho following uniijiie ceremony was per
formed. "My fiiends, we are now within the
shadow of the walls of tho blind goddess
of justice tu witness the nuptial tiesof the
couple now present; and as thoy launch
their boat cti into the ocean of connubial
blis, may they have smooth sailiug and
fair windso'cr this sea, and may their
hull bo free from the barnacles of life,
and never subjected to squall nor orie9 of
'ship ahoy!' "
After the usual questions and answers,
tho "marrifyer" continued:
"By the authority vested in mo by
the county of Mecklenburg, known as the
cradle of liberty, and the Commonwealth
of North Carolina, called the 'Tar Heel
State' of this confederation of fusion, by
the smoking tar kilns and the bleeding
sentinels of our turpeutine fields; by the
recollection of the fat baked opossum
with sides lined with sop, sweet potatoes
and hoe cake, to say nothing of tho sweet
and luscious watermelon; by tho free
silver blasts from the horde of the long
eared tradilioual animal which is often
heard throughout tho laud; by the
Diugley tariff bill which is to produce
the long wished for and promised wave
of prosperity, by the song of the gold bug,
which some say is the dirge of the people
aud the glorification of trusts and monop
olies; by the old flea bitten coon dog
whose 'basso profundi is heard in the
gloaming; by the clear aud loud notes of
the old Shanghai chanticleer in tho early
morn calling upon his comrades to shake
off tin ir lethargy, and by the menory of

The story is told of a Yankee house

awoke one night at sound of her husband
creeping softly out of his bed and toward
the light stand.
"What's the matter, William?" she
whispered.
Sh!" he whisjvred; there's a burglar
coming up the front stairs, and I'm get

All was silent again, in the midst of
which William crept noiselessly to the
head of the stairs. Presently there was.
a loud report followed by a m id scurrying
of feet; then tho hu-band camo back,
lighted a lamp, and returned to the stair
way.
"O William, William, did he"
' Yes, begot away," said the husband
"Oh, I don't care so much about that,1'

"Did he what?"

HEAVEN AND HELL.
Various 1 henries As To The Location of Par
adise An! Hales.
Hell and heaven beliefs had their
origin about the year 151) B. C, and
since that time there have been thou
sands of attempts to locate these places,
the one of fu'Mre punishment and the
other of everlasting happiness. The old
mcdiieval idea uf hell H the one which
gives us to understand that the devil and
his imps have their furnaces aud their
caldrons aud other articles of infernal
ullility constantly working somewhere
within the bowels of (he earth. On the
uther hand, we are told aud believe that
heaven is an abode of light, beauty and
jiiy located far above the earth. Uue
writer believes that heaven will bo on a
planet which will be prepared for the
saints in the last day, and another believes
that this earth, burued over and purified
by fire, will be the final resting placo of
those who escape the horrors of prepetual
puuishiuetit in the hell that has been
prepared "for those who love sin." Dr.
Whiston, the friend of Sir Isaac Newton
and the first of the great race of "specula
live astronomers," believes that hell is
located on a comet.
But the most curious theory we have
ever investigated was that advanced by
Dr Mortimer, author of "The Spirit of
(iod as Fire" Ooe of the several sub
stitutes uf this remarkable book was one
which gave the reader to uu lertstand that
the author believed that heaven is lo
cated on the inner globe of the sun. This
subMitute was "The (ilube Within the
Sun Our Heaven" According to
Moriiim r's theory, our sun is surrounded
by ati envelope or photosphere rlatnc
1011,000 miles itself. Taken all together
thi idea of the photosphere is a vast
nouluniinous void. Farther on is the
great globe of the sun itself.
Taken all together, this idea nf the sun
may be aptly compared to a peach era
plmu The envelope of fl uue occupies
the place of the skin, the "vast noulumi
n us void" the place of the meat of the
fruit and the central globe (true sun) the
place of the seed. On this sun globe,
insihe the ureal fiery envelope, Dr. Mor
tini r beli -veil heaven ti be situated
The photosphere or cuvclopo of fire lie
took to be hell or tlie place of future
punishment for the wicked. The "non
luminous void," accotding to Mortimer,
is the "great gulf between," which is
mentioned quite frequently in the
Seriptures St. Louis Republic.

"Some of us fellows that thiuk we

liable to go against the wrong one as rank
outfiders are." The man with sporty
costume, after making this assertion, took
a gulp of his mixed tipple and proceeded
with the story.
"due Sunday before there was much
baseball playing on that day allowed, I
pickeil iiji a club ot mixed players,

sneaked into a back township to plav a
match for $ 100 a side. The thiug was
kept so quiet that there were uot more
than half a dnz-n spectator-!. Among
them was a big farmer-looking fellow with

Well, neither did I up to that time. But,

Vly boys were first to bat and for a time,
being keyed up on the cider, they batted
like fimds and we had fifteen runsiu be
fore the eider had begun to do its best.
Then there was chaos. Players were
chasing imaginary balls, three men were
trying to bat at once and the umpire was
singing 'Annie Rooney,' then in her
infancy. The sun was never brighter
ih ui at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and
there wasn't a cloud in the sky, when the
umpire called the game on account uf
darkness aud thickly proclaimed that
my team had won un points. We all
agreed with him that it was tuo dark to
play and laid clown in the broiling suu to

lemu
(N. Y. Herald.)
And uow J exhort you to be of good
eneer. Acts, xxvu.,
It seems to me that there arc very few
things in life more desirable than good nn
ture.
In some persons it is the result of tem
perament, but in others it is an acquired
habit.
One cati develop good nature, and it is
a prime duty to do so.
There is no quality of character which
has more to do with your happiness, with
the relations you bear to your fellows, or
with the highest success, than this.
You educate your mind by means f
study and meditation The poet educates
and increases his imagination by con
stantly exercising it. In the same way
the artist becomes facile iu the use of the
brush. He keeps at work un the canvas
year alter year, until the crude picture of
his early life, which attracted no atten
tion, gives place to the majterpiece which
da mature age brings him fame and
fortune Whatever you do constantly
becomes easy to do in tho lung run.
We ought to recognize! these facts in
matters of religion The spiritual nature,
like the artist's eye and the architect's
hand, needs skilful training. It is a
blunder to declare that, wlii e the farmer
can have no crops unless he fits the soil
for the seed ho proposes to plant, you
can leave your soul to grow without auy
cultivation.
A man can make himself about what
ho wishes lo be provided he is willing to
bestow the necessary labor on himself.
Gardens which are not carefully tilled arc
tilled with weeds, which become so
dominant that the flowers are choked.
Souls that aie left tu themselves become
filled with spiritual thistles. A gtcat life

if you are ever to be a nobleman iu the
sight of G d you must needs bestow a
.'nod deal ol labor on yourself, lor, while
he peerage uf earth is: a matter of inher
itance, the nobility ot heaven is inade ui
of tin u who have earned their promiuence.
To I e good n.itured may seem a very
tlivial thing, but it is just as important
as lo have a strong foundation when you
are about lo build a house.
The difference between a man who has
the habit ol finding fault with everything
and the man who invariably makes the
best of everything is almost tuu great to
be measured.
You cau literally make tilings go wrong
by being iu the wroug state of mind, and
you can ut least help them tu go right
by believing that they will go right aud
giving them a jog iu that direction.
If yuu have a difficult task to perform
you cau do it more easily by believing
that you can do it, and you make it a hun
dred times more difficult, by believing
that ucilhcr you nor anbody else can do

when the sun shines, of expecting ovil

because you have not had (ha upportu

in that habit you will Dot merely mat

It is out the weather outside, but the

Many a man has been happy amid
doleful surroundings, and many a man has
been wretched in surroundings which
have excited the envy of his neighbors.
It is the outluok which decides these
matters, aud if that is cheerful yuu will
find more pleasure in a daisy than another
