| “Fhe Last Braw Bridal That was at.”

About 2 o'clock on the afternoon of Jan. 9ch the writea, accompanied by his wife and a lady friend, started froma point about ten miles from the village uf Kensington toward that thriving centre. It had been deemed advisable to take s pung sleigh, vod ere a thirdof the journey was com- pleted the wisdom of this choice was attested. Though the roads were bare in seme p'aces, in others they showed a decid- ed partisli'y sometimes to one side of the sleigh, thea again to the other, for, by the aid of the banks of the ‘“*beautiful snow” they strove to raise one runner higher in the world than the other. As a result one of the ladies was suddenly interrupted in her contemplation of the beauties of the landscape by a friendly collision between her ear and # frozen lump of earth. A cry from the fallea lady called the attention of the occupants of the sleigh to her vacant seat and herself. A halt was called sad she gained a firm position beside the others ; but alas ! the other lady was svon reminded that mother earth may sometimes be a hard resting place.

Arriving at length at Kensington, we are kindly treated by friends there ; and soon a sleigh driven by 4 young man, and intend- ed to convey the ladies to their destination, stopsat the door. Arather blank look, which my betcken disappointment (but we'll generously believe it does nut) over- spreads the features of this handsome youth as he becomes aware of the non-appsarat cs of an expected third lady. The weiter is content to accompany a friend on foot the remainder of the way. Abouta mile from Kensington we arrive at the imposing and substantial residence of our enterpris- iog citizen, Mr. Wm. Paynter. Had we not known before that this evening is one cf more than ordinary importance to our good friend’s household, the kindly welcome which shines on the beaming countenances of himself and wife, anda glance around would convince us, All is merry bustle.

And- now my readers must know the mis. sion on which we have come. Twenty-five years ago this 9th of January, triumphantly and amid the congratulations of friends— many of whom are present to-night to con- gratulate him on what the years have brought--Mr. P. carried away from her

Faint Heart. I love her so ! But does she know How fondiy I adore her ? Dread makes me dumb Whene’er I come To plead my case before her.

Some common-place, Devoid of grace

Of moauiag then I utter. I come to woo And stoutly sue

For love—I only stutter.

Sometimes I think When on the brink Of a brave declaration, She knows what my Fond looks imply, And waite fur my oration.

But even then I slamp again, And eloquence deserts me, While all the while, I see a emile In her bright eyes that hurts me.

Gh, cruel fate !

My wretched state Must surely waken pity,

When I should speak

My tongue grows weak, She is divinely pretty.

What shall I do‘

What shall [ do ? Unless 1 woo, Some other chap may get her—

By Jove a bright Idea! To-night Til just write her a letter. e+e

home, about a mile on the other side of the above-named handsome village, Miss Jane Casley as his bride. This, then, is their silver wedding. A glance around their palatial residence convinces us that we are in for a “‘gran’, gude time.” In one room is a company partaking of the good things of this life from a table ladeu with proofs of Mrs. P. and her daugbters’ skill in the culinary art. Dispersed through the other rooms, on the walls of which are appropri- ate mottoes in evergreen dotted with ever- lastings, are many groups of people of vary- From one room come merry

organ the vivacious wife of the Reverend Mr. Hicks. The centre of a group in another room ig the reverend gentleman himeeif. Almost all classes are represented. We see present M. D.’s, M. P.’s, D. D.’s, and last but not least, ‘“‘the farmer who feeds them all.” Friends chat pleasantly on various subjects, among which the New Year and the old’ ones receive their share of attention. Many are the anecdotes told of the years that have passod since they listened to the merry jingle of bells on their host's wedding night. Passing around I always find a group of admirers about the long table in the hall, on

which are arranged the many hand some and valuable gifts noticeable ia the beautiful collection on the

able is a fine set of china, complete, which

shows the good sense of the giver. On sur- veying the presents we conclude that the recipients will be in # better position to eat butter than potatoes, as no less than four butter coolers—silver at that -are on the table, and not one knife. '

After tho writer has nccompanied his best girl to supper and had had his share of dainties, his attention is attracted by a clamor on the veranda, and he soon discovers that a merry group of young men with faces disguised have come to liven things up by tooting, rattling and thomping, the usual charavari accompani- ment to the wedding, After a view of the bride and a liberal treat of cake, which is p*seed around by the son and son-in-law of the house—Mr. Wesley Paynter and Mr. M Stafford —they move away, giving a farewell salute as they go.

The hours of the evening = swiftly by. At 10 30 an abundance of fruit and nutes of varions kinds is passed around. Another hour and a half spent in pleasant chat and cracking nuts and jokes, and the guests, about eighty in number, after wishing for Mr. and Mrs. Paynter health and happiness ti!! their golden wedding day, and for themselves the pleasure of again being at such an enjoyable affair, disperse to their several homes, pro- nouncing this one of the pleasantest evenings of their lives,

A GUEST.

Lady Henry Somerset, the well-known tem- ce and social reformer, has frequently been twitted by interested parties with being herself the owner of public houses, She has just written a letter which effectually disposes of this calumny. When she succeeded to her father's estates ten years ago she found public houses on both the Reigate and Somer Town properties. Since then she has been abie to close eight of these houses, having refused considerable sums of money for the extension of the leases before they expired. That the other licensed houses have not been extin- guished is due solely to the fact that until the leases expire it is impossible for the ground landlord to deal with them.

‘To Kidnap a Prince. y

THIRTY XIX CONSPIRATORS FRUITLESS ATTEMPT.

Arecent despatch from Buda Pesth says: Despite official denials, the Pesti Hirlap insists upon the trath of reports concerning a plot to kidnap the Prince ot Montenegro. The plot was concocted in Cottinge, the capital of Montenegro, says the Hirlap, and was of clerical origin. It was discovered just before its maturity, but a desperate effort was made by the con- spirators to carry it intoexecution. About 200 men started for the palace toseize the prince. Warning was received at the palace, already doubly guarded, and all the! military in the city was called out. The soldiers met the conspirators a short dis- tance from the palace and began firing at once. The conspirators, who were well | armed, returned the fire and tried to charge | through the troops, but were repulsed. After thirty-six conspirators had been | killed and ninety had been wounded, the! attempt to seize the palace was abandoned. Some thirty of the uninjured were ar- rested; the rest fled. Subsequently, seys the Hirlap, twenty-eight priests were ar rested for having led in the formation and attempted execution of the plot.
