We understand that Miss Jeaaette Bennett, sister of Mr J G Bennett, is about to be married to Lord Bossmore. Mr Bennett is to arrive in New York on July 6. The wedding of Miss Ben nett is to take place in this city. Baron Rossmore, (Derrick Warner William Westerna,) of Bossmore Park, county Monagahan, Ireland, is the fifth baron otf that name. Being also a peer of the United Kingdom, he holds a seat in the House of Lords. He is in his twenty-sixth year, and held former ly asub-lieutenant's commission in the First Life Guards. He succeeeded in the peerage to his brother, Henry Cairns, who died in 1874 in conse quence of a fall while riding a steeple chase at Windsor. The Magnolia Balm is n sure device for creating a pure and blooming complexion. It conceals all natural blemishes in the most sur prising aad effective manner. It removes all Toughness, eruptions, redness, blotches, freckles, and tan with magical power. It drives away all evidences of fatigue and ex citement. It makes the plainest face beautiful. It, gives the complexion - dazzling purity and makes the neoh, faee, and arms appear graceful, rotund, and plump. It makes a matron of 35 or 40 look not more than 20 years old, and changes the rustic maiden into a cultivated city belle. The Magnolia Balm, removes all blemishes and ctals every drawback to beauty; and, while it U at harmless at water, it is so lifflikt in its effects that the closest observer cannot detect its use.

The following resolutions were re ceived with loud and continued ap plause and adopted without a dissenting voice : Whereas, It will the duty of the next Legislature of North Carolina to elect a Senator to succeed the Hon A S Merrimon in the Congress of the United States; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the Democrats of Gaston, in convention assembled, re commend; as our choice for this distin guished: position one -who has never wavered in his devotion to the best in terests of the whole State ; who has discharged the duties of the many of fices to which the people have called him with the greatest fidelity, skill and ability ; whose attainments and abilities eminently fit him for the highest position in the gift of the peo ple, and whose name is synonymous with both personal and political honess ty and integrity that gifted states man, true patriot and gentleman, our beloved Governor, Zebulon B Vance. Resolved, further, That we shall ex- nect our nominees to the General As sembly, if elected, to abide the action of the Democratic legislative caucus, but we hereby instruct them to vote in caucus for Governor Vance, and to use all honest enoris to secure nis nomina tfoTi and election.

The Manchester (N H) Mirror tells the following story of a homesick horse that ran away from his new mas ter and made the journey alone to his old home a distance of about thirty miles : "Eighteen- months ago, a bay horse was purchased irr this city by Mr Nathaniel Wiggin, of Greenland, and driven down to his farm. The -horse was well' fed and well treated, and he waxed fat and seemed as happy, as it is given for the most fortu nate horses to bei One night re cently - be escaped1 from his pas ture and -was nowhere to be found when he was wanted next day. Har nessing another horse, Mr Wiggm set forth to capture the deserter, ana trac ed him from place to place un til he reached Newmarket bridge. Here he was informed by the toll-gatherer that the horse had been there, but was driven back, and the gate closed ; but even then he would not go away, and the first time after his arrival that a team went through he made a dash, squeezed through alongside of the oth er horse, ana ciatterea away, up me road, snorting triumphantly as he went. Mr Wiggin, having no longer any doubt as to wnere tne runaway had gone, drove onto Mancnester as directly as he could go, hearing from the horse occasionally all the way, and on arriving at Manchester, there he was, sure enough, in his old stall in the stable, which he had left eighteen months before Louisiana State Littery Compaij.
