Conspired to Make Oae ofLaatlas Mem. ory;utltIa Attended With Difficul ties, i Correspondence of The Morganton Herald. ' The early birds last Thursday morning found an ideal lav- for catching the worm. It was a dav fit for the gods. The red disced un with bis fiery hair streiming a gold across the east lifted Lis shining day torch upon a lovelv earth! and sent his trnlden plow across a happy land. The bird whose little throats bad caught the chill of icy winter aid had hushed till summer, mistook the happy morn for glorious spring time and threw their mellow voices into the great orchestra of nature. There was same reason for rhat umisnaltlay : A marriage was on hand. A sturdy youth with pulse athrob and cheek aglow was that day to consummate a contract with j a fair faced damsel with ten thou sand smiles. John Shnll wa to aiairy Miss Mary Simpson. John is a pictnre of loveliness at all times, for John is a handsome man, and nature has been kind to John aud kissed his cheeks with a blush of beauty and painted a sweetness in every curl nnon his head. : And Jobu has done much good for himself. By careful groom ing aud gentle fondling and ca resses, he has grown up an ex quisite moustache, a single hair of which looks like a golden-dream of beauty. His charms stand out predominant in every muscle and movemeut of his graceful bodv.' John for a long time had been accustomed to evening strolls about the laundry. "Walking," so John said, "was good for him ; " aud the stroll around the laundry gave more joy to John than if he had walked with Newton across the starry paths. One day Miss Mary ;saw John pass the window and she fell a victim to Johu's charms. She could not help it. and who could blame her f I imagine the struggle that sweet girl had the first time she feasted her ees upon our handsome John. No doubt she was wouderstruck aud weut to her room that night smitten like the victim of a dream at the dazzling impetus onset of Johu's unspeakable charms. She tried no doubt to sleep, but sleep deserted her aching eyes; for even wneu she almost fell to slep, the image of our handsome John stood upon : her vision and banished slumber. . Oh, how she must have rolled and tossed upon her restless pillow, overpowered by the exqui site flood of our Johu's handsome face ! '. At last she could stand it no longer. Her nature gave way to her impulse and she agreed to marry John. The day was set. aud earth. and heaven conspired to make it one of lasting memory. ignoring the slow aud common means of conveyance, John decided be would honeymoon by railroad. aud I believe he would have crone by telegraph had the wires been able to waft him and his happy. smiling bride to the place he had decided as a goal of his weddinz tour. Early on last Thursday morning our handsome John arose from bis couch where he bad dreamed a thousand times of Mary, and whistling a charming melody (for our John makes music with his lips as well as love), began the de lightful task of bedeckiug himself for his nuptials. His wedding suit had been carefully selected, and eveu to his shoes he showed his matchless taste, for be had selected a pair of pretty slender toed calf skins, the very polish and shine of which were enough to crush a common lady's heart.
