An interesting ceremony took place in the Methodist Chureb, at Baie Vert, on the morning off the 27th inst., when-the Rev. Mr. Stebbing, of Souris, P. E. tsiand, was united in marriage to Miss Anue Maria Goodwin, eldest daughter of Cyrus Good- win, Esq., of Tidnish. As the bridegroom was a former minister of this Church, and the bride a favorite with all, a large audience assembled to witness the cere- mony. As your correspondent is not a lady, it is out of his line to describe at- tire, but he was particularly struck with the qniet beauty of the bride and her get- up. The best man was Rev. Mr. McCuily, of Sackville, and the bridesmaid, Miss Anne Wells, of Baie Verte. As the party moved up the aisle the choir sang the ‘‘ Bridal Chorus,” and ‘The Wedding March” was played as they retired. The service was conducted by the Rev. Robert Wilson, Pastor of the Church, at the close of which a large party adjourned to the residence of the bride’s father for break- fast. THe bride was the recipient of a number of valuable presents, among the rest a handsome gold ring, jewelled, from her uncle in Oregon, George Wells, Esq. After the company was called to order, Dr. McCully took the chair, and the pre- sentatian was made by Rev. R. Wilson in a brief address, made up of pleasan'ries and appropriate counsels and expressions of good feeling for the happy pair. At the close of tpis the bridal party left for Aulac en route for theif home in the tight little isle of the Gulf.—Correspondence of the St. John Sun of Oct. 29,

THe Eclectic Mogquzine, for November, contains an exeellent likeness of Mr. Archi- bald Forbes. No one could fail to identify it with the man who recently delighted tbe best audiences that Charlottetown could produce. The Helectic says of Mr. Forbes :

‘‘ He has completeiy revolutionized the function and character of the army corres- pondent, and has shown that, as conceived by him, instead of being an easy position for a non-combatant, it is beth more dan- gerous and more arduous than that of the soldier in the fieid. in the pursuit of his work he has performed deeds*of daring and endurance that have few modern parallels ; and, in addition to this, he has shown a command of the resources of his art which, all the circumstances being considered, is little less than marvellous. In the very midst of the appalling scenes which he must depict, with the swoke of conflict and the reek of carnage all around, he will write a descri»tion of a battle which, for precision and finish as well as graphic force of style, shall surpass the most labored efforts of the histerian in his study. Some of his battile- pieces, written as fast as his pen could fly over the paper, and telegraphed sheet by sheet before the ink was dry, have never been surpassed, and rarely equalled, for realistic vividness of delineation ; and his judgment of men and events, formed on the spur of the moment, have seldom been suc- cessfully impeached or refuted.”

The infernal machine as to which Robert A. Porrish, a Philadelphia lawyer, has been found guilty of assault, with intent to kill, was @aborately constructed of four gun barrels, weights, cords, sand paper, and matches, and was placed in his desk in such a way that the opening of the drawer would cause an explosion. Porrish occupied an office with other lawyers, and he believed that somebody was in the habit of opening his desk. Some of the papers in one of his suits were of great consequence, and he wished to make sure of their safety. So He put them into the drawer with the destruc- tive contrivance and lecked them up. An office boy, who knew nothing of this, step- ped on the desk to loosen a window and the pressure set the machine going The bar- rels were heavily charged with bullets, one of which wounded the boy seriously. Mr. Parrish has been a practitioner forty years, and has an excellent reputation. The im- pression is that he will be fined, and not imprisoned.

John Hamilton’s wife obtained a divorce from him at Rock Isiand, Lil, and went back to her parents, while he migrated to Sacramento. They soon began a cerres- pondence, and before a year was over she went to Sacramento, where they were re- married. Mrs. Hamilton was net long in getting jealous, and with good reason ; but she shot her rival, and for a while the con- nubial sky was clear. The wounded woman disappeared, and the wife was not punished for the assault. Again Hamilton gave cause for jealousy. Mrs. Hamilton was convinced that he could not be permanent- ly reformed. She sat down on his lap, put ore arm around his neck, kissed him afiec- tionately, drew a pistol with the disengaged hand, placed it close to his forehead, and fired, killing him instantly.

| The Cash System in Business. | eee

A good business man, says the United States Leovomist, must be a practical finan- cier. He should understand thoroughly the ditlerence between profit and loss, know how to use his capital to good advantage and see that his expenses are kept snugly within his income. A clearly defined pur- pose of honest money making should be his great intent. With this objeet in view and steadily pursuing it, success will crown his efforts. The capital may be small at com- mencement, but its careful expenditure, diligent attention to profits, and necessary economy in living and details will cause it to grow year by year, until it becomes suffi- cient to condnet the business without the aidof credit. Just here is the important point in any business career. When a busi- ness man can manage his affairs without the aid of friend or credit, it is then he be- comes truly independent. He is free to buy in any market, take ‘the advantage of the rise or fall of values and is enabled to compete successfully with competition in trade. The manufacturer who pays prompt cash for all his raw materials and conducts his whole operations on that system can wake good at less cost than the one who buys on credit. The credit manufacturer works at a disadvantage and can only iuake both ends meet on a stock rising market. It is the same way with the mer- chant. The one who buys for strict cash is the most songht after by trade; his inoney gives him importance and position, and he commands ihe situation. He takes advantage of all discounts, secures the best bargains, and occupies the lead in business. [ff he is opposed by those whe buy on credit, that kind of competition is not to be feared as the advantage is all on the cash side. t is important, therefore, for every business man to reach the point where he can conduct his affairs on a cash basis. This position reached, the worst part of the conflict is over. To buy and sell for cush is the safe mode of mercantile management. This system ‘relieves the mind of much worriment and anxiety, enables the active prosecution of business to become a pleas- ure, and the man so engaged to be inde- pendent. This should be the aim of every merchant, manifacturer and business man; a fixed steady purpose to make money, save it when made, conduct all eperations onacash basis as soon as possible, so as, in a certain sense, to defy competition, dull market or panic vevulsions. Mone ig a great power in the commercial world, a sheet anchor in business panics, and an inportant facter in the pursuit of life. ft whould be the firm purpose of every business man to make it honestly, spend it judiciously, and thereby tbecome in- dependent.

Live Stock—Its Relaiion to Wheat Growing.

Prof. Miles, of the Michigan Agricul- tural College, has, as we notice by the Farmer made some suggestive comparisons in which the velations of the yield of wheat per acre to the number of cattke and sheep for each 100 acres of improved land is shown in the most striking manner.

The countries that have an average num- ber, or more, of cattle and sheep—with two exceptions that imay be readily explained by local causes—have more than an ever- age yield of wheat below what might be expected from the sma!l numbers of live stock.

These results, though surprising frem their uniformity, were not unexpected, as they are in accerdance with principles of farm economy “that are recegnized by all intelligent farmers.

In the country where commercial fertil- izers are not in general use, the supply of barnyard manure must furnish a fair. index of the fertility of farms that are nearly equalin natural productiveness, and the proportionate number of cattle and sheep kept on the farm will best indicate approx- imately the quantity of manure at com- mand, d

The acreage of grain must also have an influence on the results. An excess of grain without corresponding supply of man- ure and high tillage must tend. to produce a diminished yield per acre, while with a liberal manure supply, the yield of grain may be retained at a” high average, even with an increased acreage.

Success in wheat growing seems, there- fore, to depend largely upon the attention given te live stock, and the statistics under discussion agree fuliy with the old time saying : ‘‘ The more cattle the more man- ure—the more manure the better crops.— Bache nae,
