There were present about one hiidred and fifty invited -nests. The bri- lal presents were numerous and costly. Col. Cocke is to be congrat ulated upon winnmc so tair a bride, and the citizens of Winchester, Ky., upon the acquisition of such an ele gantlady to their society. It has been intimated that it was a case of De cember and May, but the Colonel in sists that if it be so, it is early in December and late in May. Colonel and Mrs. Cocke are at home at the Rees House. The Nashville Daily American of Dec. 2nd, says : 'The Hon. Wm. M. Cocke, without giving anr for mal notice, came down to this city night before last, and, by the aid of a Methodist preacher who lately came here from Giles, captured and took off to Kentucky a beautiful young lady, Misg Nannie Neal.

This distinguished gentleman now a citizen of Kentucky, but long a leading man of Tennessee, was al ways regarded as the handsomest man in the State, and one of the most entertaining public speakers of the jld time. He is the grand son of the first Senator, Wm. Cocke, and the nephew A John Cocke, who was afone time Speaker of the Tennessee House of repierentatives. Even when a younger man he never showed to better advantage, or was handsomer than on this oc casion; indeed, he walked, and look ed, and got married like a young man." The many friends of Col. Cocke in this city where he lived for some years, tender sincere congratula tions. He is tho father of Mrs. J. E. Rankin and Capt. W. M. Cocke Jr., of this city. With natural grace, a mellow, sympathetic voice, and the spirit of fun and good humor evident in every action and beaming in eyery glance Patti Rosa fairly captivated the audience in the outset, and soon had it applauding and frequently cheering.

A howling dog in the n ighborhood for the last three nights, and a "Grand Op.ning" of new goods each day this week, together, have prevented our writing a new "ad," and we really havent time to attend to it now, but nothing makes in as weary (except a dull day iu trade) as seeing day r.fter day the same old "ad" staring at us from the columns of the elaily psper. It acquires a lost, lonesome look, ill befitting a concera that averages at least one '-Opeuinc" to the week. hence we take time to jot down a few items, by way of a reminder to the people, that the 'Racket" is still on deck, wide-awake, and in the matter of Christinas things, ycttiay 'here with bothj'iei. Don't buy your Christmas presents, a new suit for your boy, a new pair of blankets, a set of plated knives, forks, or sp;on, a carving set, an alarm clock, a pair of hand made shoes, or we might say anything, uutil you have been ti the "Racket" Store. Iu flannel underwear, either scarlet or white, we have a beautiful ine.
