The young lady, when she realized the fact, became frantic with terror, and her struggles greatly impeded Mr. McConnell, aud slowly but surely dragged him down. All this time the gentleman had been calling for help and his cries had undoubtedly been heard on the beach but no one in the crowd made the slighest effort to help them. At last, when, as Mr. McConnell, says, he had given up all hope, two brave boatmen, Capt. Pi iter and Mr. Thomas, rushed into the surf and at the risk of their o vn lives swain to the couple who were by that time almost exhausted. They relieved Mr. McConnell of the lady, whom he had bravely supported all the time, aud his splendid physique enabled him to .reach the shore un aided, where he fell in a swoon. The two boatmen, hud, in the mean while assisted the youug lady to the shore. Hesoratives were given and both of them were soon as well as ever. Mr. McConnell showed wonderful nerve and bravery throughout the affair aud the conduct of his two brave rescuers annot be too highly complimented. Marguerite Wedding.

Roberts, of Wilmington, the maid of honor was Miss Lucy Lon don, of Pittsboro; and Mr. Chas. Shaw was best man. The flower girls were Misses Legrand Cameron and Bruce Carr. The house was beautifully dec orated in green and the darkened rooms and dimly burning gas jets lent a sense of enchantment to the scene. Many friends and relatives were in attendance from Wilmington, Pitts boro, Louisburg and Raleigh. The presents were both numerous and beautiful. Last night a handsome le- eaption was given at the home of the bride. Mr. and Mrs. White left today for an extended bridal tour, after which they will go to Washington, D.
