HYHENIAL. A FELICTOUS OCCASION. There Is a time for the exhibition and Indulgence of each of the passions and emotions to which humanity is subject "a ffme'to mourn and a time to dance." Last Saturday, the 27th of February had been for some time appointed and set apart for a time of rejoicing, of happiness, of pleasure and festivity, at the residence of one of Nemaha City's most worthy citizens, Mr. J. B. Hoover, that being the 16th birth day of his daughter, Mis3 Fannie, and the day for her mar- riage. Cards and tickets of invitation had been issued Inviting many of the friends of the parties, to be present at 11 o'clock A. 31., to witness the mar- riage. The morning was pleasant and brleht may it be a happy omen for our young married friends and at the appointed hour, the Bpacious and ele- gant parlors of the Hoover resilience were well filled with guests. Wh.en the moment had arrived for two lov- ing soula to solemnly promise fidelity, and love everlasting to each other, the bride, supported by her father and bridesmaid, Miss Fie Hoover, and the bridegroom, Mr. Charle3 L. Ervin, attended by the editor of tho Adver- tiser, (being the best looking gantle- - man present, except the groom.) made their appearance before theassemhled friends, and the minister, tho Rev. E. R. Richardson of St. John's Church, Nemaha City, who married and bless- ed them. The bridal trousseau consisted of greater elegance and richness than Is often seen in the western country. Her dress was of pure tfhlte, made demi-trai- n, bridal veil teaching to the bottom of dress, orange wreath attach- ed to cluster of ora'ngo buds at the neck, handsome white gfos-grai- n sash looped with orange sprays, white kid gloves and boots. And the beau- tiful little Fannie, in her pure white garb, fit emblem c"f her own pure heart and mind, appeared lovely as an nncel. Miss Fie Hoover, the bridesmaid, and cousin of the bride, was also dressed in white, with blue sash and ribbons, and appeared really charming. For the lovely appearance of the bride nnd her maid much cred- it is due to the skillful hands and ac- complished taste of Mrs. Mina Corn-stoc- k, of Nemaha City, and Mrs. M. A. Porter, of Phelps, Mo. The dre?s of the isridegroom contrasted well with that of tho bride, being of ele- gant black cloth, white vest, &c. Charlie is a noble, true-heart- ed and I handsome gentleman, a very prosper ous dry goods merchant of Plum Creek, Dawson County, Nebraska. So we conclude that a happier match could not well be made. Aftpr the ceremony and hearty con- gratulations, the bridal presents were unveiled, and the display was quite imposing. We do not know that we got the list complete, but will men- tion splendid gold watch and chain, by the bridegroom ; a beauti- ful chair tidy and set of toilet mats by Mrs. D. C. Billings, of Waco, Texas; asilk dress by father; set sil- ver forks by mother ; n handsome set of napkins by Mrs. M. A. Porter, of Phelps; silver teaspoons by mother; a nice salt dish from little Nellie Tyn- an; 6et of goblets by Mrs. Jeunie Tynan ; set silver table spoons by mother; solid silver mustard spoon b3' aunt Hullie; a beautiful set of glassware and a prayer book by moth- er. After viewing the presents and listening to piano and string music for awhile, the guests were invited to the dining room and seated at ft repast that was truly royal in manner, va- riety and abundance. The banquet- ing commenced about 1 p. 2S., and the table stood there beneath its load of luxuries as long as the gue3ts re- - Lmained, for all to partake of at any and all times of the day and night. As the guests finished their dinner they repaired to the hall where Jas. R. and Geo. Dye and J. B. Berkley were discoursing sweet music, tempt- ing everybody to pitch in nnd sling the light fantastic toe, which nearly everybody did, and kept it up danc- ing and feasting until tho warning hand of time was about pointing the hour of midnight, and the near ap- proach of the Sabbath, when the joy- ous crowd, with wishes of much joy to the newly married couple, dispers- ed to their respective homes. Of the guests we remember Mr. and Mrs. A. Tynan, of Richardson coup-t- y ; Mrs. Porter, of Phelps; Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bother, of Aspinwail; Mrs. Wm. H. Hoover, Brownville ; Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Hoover, of Ne- maha ; Mr. and Mrs. Dory Hacker, of Brownville; Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Bennett. Mr. and Mrs. Seaberry, Miss Francis Seaberry, Mr. and Mrs. Scovill, Miss Libbio Scovill, Mr?. Comstock, all of Nemaha; Mr. and Mrs. Frank Morris, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Small, Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Dye, of Brownville, and many others. The bitter and the sweet are Insep-erabl- e in thi3 world, and there was one thing that alloyed the happiness of this occasion. We allude to the illness of Mrs. J. B. Hoover, so vi- vacious and well qualified to conduct such an affair when in good health. All felt and expressed deep regret that she was unable to participate in the festivities. She was constantly surrounded with friends, eager to make her situation as comfortable and endurable as possible, but she urged all to take no thought of her depriva- tions, but to enter fuy into the joys of the occasion. She informed us, and desired us to say, that to Mrs. Huldah Hoover and Mrs. Jennie Tynan she was indebted in a debt of lasting gratitude, for llielr" kindness and handiwork in preparing the sumptuous banquet for her guests.

Several of the young gents of this village have succeeded in rendering themselves obnoxious to the majoritj of our inhabitants by calling each other, aud In fact everybody, by some distasteful or ungentlemanly nick- name. Their usuargr'eeting is, "How are you, Mose?" "Good morning, Dye!" "How ore the folks, Cajer?" "Go it, Sboog," &c. They not only do this' In the company of gentlemen, but al- so in the presence of ladies, thus showing an utter disregard for their feelings. These same youngsters are also a great armoj-anc- e to all our peace lov- - Sngoltizens, by :ongregatIcg in tho stores every evening aud disgusting with writing the items that are sent up from this place. They also fill the at air with vauntings of what they in- tend to do as Boon as they acquiro positive information that the afore named persons, or either of them, were doing the itemizing froni here, j We should not blame tho boys for get- ting angr.tf If there had been any- thing written that would casta reflec- tion on. or in any way injure them ; but the fact is neither of their names has "been mentioned in asingle item sent from this place; In reality they are of so little importance that our "splinter makers'' would feel rather diminutive to think they had been guilty of such a breach of good breed- ing. Now, readers, do not think we bear either of said boys any malice, for such is not the case. We merely do this as a friend, who desires to ren- der them a kindness. Some one tells us th at it is impossible" to correct a fault until we learn what It Is. True; now, m' dear boys, your fault is brag- ging, and Burns says: ''Oh, wud some power the glftie gle us To see ourselves lis ethers' SeS usl' This, boys, will apply to you. Re- member others see a fault soonest. This is all. Only take the advice the monkey gave when lecturing the cat, "Be better, be better!" O.vTa Again. LOXB0N LlSPIJi6S First of March very cold.

ThB last day of February was warm and much snow melted away ; roads having some the appearance of rivers. It must be uhpTea'Sanl to tear up and move every spring, or oftener.

The evening session of the John son .Legislature baturclay evening, was somewhat lively and exciting. An act granting a subsidy of land in aid of the Johnson City Telegraph Co., was passed, although it met with considerable opposition from several influential members. An act entitled an act to define the bouudries of cer- tain counties was laid upon the table. House roll No. 3, asking pecuniary as sistance from the General Govern- ment to procure clean shirts for the western members, elicited a perfect storm of Indignation from the Hon- orable member from Buffalo county. A memorial and joint resolution cen- suring President Grant and denouu-ouncingGe- di Sheridan for their action in the Louisiana af Fairs, was then in- troduced. Mr. J. B.

HYHENIAL.

A FELICTOUS OCCASION.

There Is a time for the exhibitionand Indulgence of each of the passionsand emotions to which humanity issubject "a ffme'to mourn and a timeto dance." Last Saturday, the 27thof February had been for some timeappointed and set apart for a time ofrejoicing, of happiness, of pleasureand festivity, at the residence of oneof Nemaha City's most worthycitizens, Mr. J. B. Hoover, that beingthe 16th birth day of his daughter,Mis3 Fannie, and the day for her mar-riage. Cards and tickets of invitationhad been issued Inviting many of thefriends of the parties, to be present at11 o'clock A. 31., to witness the mar-

riage. The morning was pleasant andbrleht may it be a happy omen forour young married friends and at theappointed hour, the Bpacious and ele-

gant parlors of the Hoover resiliencewere well filled with guests. Wh.enthe moment had arrived for two lov-

ing soula to solemnly promise fidelity,and love everlasting to each other, thebride, supported by her father andbridesmaid, Miss Fie Hoover, and thebridegroom, Mr. Charle3 L. Ervin,attended by the editor of tho Adver-tiser, (being the best looking gantle- -

man present, except the groom.) madetheir appearance before theassemhledfriends, and the minister, tho Rev. E.R. Richardson of St. John's Church,Nemaha City, who married and bless-ed them.

The bridal trousseau consisted ofgreater elegance and richness than Is

often seen in the western country.Her dress was of pure tfhlte, madedemi-trai- n, bridal veil teaching to thebottom of dress, orange wreath attach-ed to cluster of ora'ngo buds at theneck, handsome white gfos-grai- n

sash looped with orange sprays, whitekid gloves and boots. And the beau-

tiful little Fannie, in her pure whitegarb, fit emblem c"f her own pureheart and mind, appeared lovely asan nncel. Miss Fie Hoover, thebridesmaid, and cousin of the bride,was also dressed in white, with bluesash and ribbons, and appeared reallycharming. For the lovely appearanceof the bride nnd her maid much cred-

it is due to the skillful hands and ac-

complished taste of Mrs. Mina Corn-stoc- k,

of Nemaha City, and Mrs. M.A. Porter, of Phelps, Mo. The dre?sof the isridegroom contrasted wellwith that of tho bride, being of ele-

gant black cloth, white vest, &c.Charlie is a noble, true-heart- ed and

I handsome gentleman, a very prosperous dry goods merchant of PlumCreek, Dawson County, Nebraska.So we conclude that a happier matchcould not well be made.

Aftpr the ceremony and hearty con-

gratulations, the bridal presents wereunveiled, and the display was quiteimposing. We do not know that wegot the list complete, but will men-tion splendid gold watch andchain, by the bridegroom ; a beauti-ful chair tidy and set of toilet matsby Mrs. D. C. Billings, of Waco,Texas; asilk dress by father; set sil-

ver forks by mother ; n handsome setof napkins by Mrs. M. A. Porter, ofPhelps; silver teaspoons by mother;a nice salt dish from little Nellie Tyn-an; 6et of goblets by Mrs. JeunieTynan ; set silver table spoons bymother; solid silver mustard spoonb3' aunt Hullie; a beautiful set ofglassware and a prayer book by moth-er. After viewing the presents andlistening to piano and string music forawhile, the guests were invited to thedining room and seated at ft repastthat was truly royal in manner, va-

riety and abundance. The banquet-ing commenced about 1 p. 2S., andthe table stood there beneath its loadof luxuries as long as the gue3ts re- -

Lmained, for all to partake of at anyand all times of the day and night.As the guests finished their dinnerthey repaired to the hall where Jas.R. and Geo. Dye and J. B. Berkleywere discoursing sweet music, tempt-ing everybody to pitch in nnd slingthe light fantastic toe, which nearlyeverybody did, and kept it up danc-

ing and feasting until tho warninghand of time was about pointing thehour of midnight, and the near ap-

proach of the Sabbath, when the joy-ous crowd, with wishes of much joyto the newly married couple, dispers-ed to their respective homes.

Of the guests we remember Mr. andMrs. A. Tynan, of Richardson coup-t- y

; Mrs. Porter, of Phelps; Mr. andMrs. Frank Bother, of Aspinwail;Mrs. Wm. H. Hoover, Brownville ;

Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Hoover, of Ne-

maha ; Mr. and Mrs. Dory Hacker,of Brownville; Mr. and Mrs. SamuelBennett. Mr. and Mrs. Seaberry,Miss Francis Seaberry, Mr. and Mrs.Scovill, Miss Libbio Scovill, Mr?.Comstock, all of Nemaha; Mr. andMrs. Frank Morris, Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Small, Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Dye,of Brownville, and many others.

The bitter and the sweet are Insep-erabl- e

in thi3 world, and there wasone thing that alloyed the happinessof this occasion. We allude to theillness of Mrs. J. B. Hoover, so vi-

vacious and well qualified to conductsuch an affair when in good health.All felt and expressed deep regretthat she was unable to participate inthe festivities. She was constantlysurrounded with friends, eager tomake her situation as comfortable andendurable as possible, but she urgedall to take no thought of her depriva-tions, but to enter fuy into the joysof the occasion. She informed us,and desired us to say, that to Mrs.Huldah Hoover and Mrs. JennieTynan she was indebted in a debt oflasting gratitude, for llielr" kindnessand handiwork in preparing thesumptuous banquet for her guests.

Editor Nebraska Advertiser.Several of the young gents of this

village have succeeded in renderingthemselves obnoxious to the majoritjof our inhabitants by calling eachother, aud In fact everybody, by somedistasteful or ungentlemanly nick-name.

so in the presence of ladies, thusshowing an utter disregard for theirfeelings.

tend to do as Boon as they acquiropositive information that the aforenamed persons, or either of them,were doing the itemizing froni here, j

We should not blame tho boys for get-

ting angr.tf If there had been any-

thing written that would casta reflec-

but the fact is neither of their nameshas "been mentioned in asingle itemsent from this place; In reality theyare of so little importance that our"splinter makers'' would feel ratherdiminutive to think they had beenguilty of such a breach of good breed-ing.

Now, readers, do not think we beareither of said boys any malice, forsuch is not the case. We merely dothis as a friend, who desires to ren-der them a kindness.
