A MUTE MARRIAGE.
Interesting Arrount ora Fash
ionable Weeding of a Deafand
Dumb « ouple.
Yesterday witnessed at the Second
Presbyterian clinch, says the Memphis
Avalanche of Thursday, an unusual
and beautifully impressive ceremony,
t lie marriage of Mr. HenyJ. Haight, ot
New York city, to Miss Mollie L.
Church, daughter of Captain and Mrs.
C. H. Church, of tliis city, the groom
and bride both being mutes. The
ecremonv was performed in the sign
language' by Rev. Dr. Gallaudet, rector
of St. Ann's church, in New York, who
came South for the purpose.
The invited friends of Captain and
Mrs. Church began to assembled long
before the apnointed hour—eleven
o’clock—and the church was fitted to
its utmost capacity witli the elite, 1 he
beauty, fashion and intellect of the city.
At eleven o'clock, a line of carriages,
conveying the nuptial party, arrived at
the church. The attendants entered
the door and passed up the aisle ill the
following order:
Miss Emma Topp and Mr. YV*m. A,
Gwyne; Miss Jennie Molloy and Cupt.
H. S. Rugg, of Nashville ; MissCorinne
Cleaves and Mr. Wm. Bowles; Miss
Lulu Pugg and Mr. Charley Newal, a
mute; Miss Florence Bugg and Mr.
Haight, brother of the bridegroom.
The bride rested on the arm of her
fattier ai d Mrs. Church on the arm ot
the bridegroom. The bead of tlie aisle
was spanned by a beautiful archway
of flowers, ami the sained desk and
ctudelabra on either side were taste
fully dressed in wreaths of evergreen
and rare flowers. The four front seats,
reserved for the immediate family
friends, were marked by a heavy white
: cord.
The attendants passed under theareh.
the ladies to t he left and the gentlemen
to the right. The bride and .groom
stood under the floral rainbow, and the
parents ot'tlie bride next to them. The
; bride, now the object of all eyes^tever
i looked more sweet and angelic. Site
has the face of a Madoita. a peculiarly
spiriluelle expression, which speaks ot
a pure, refined soul. No earthly music
ever fell upon tier ear, but her soul is
,ittoned to diviner melodics—
‘•Such »s when winds and harp strings meet
And taka a long unmeasured tono
To mortal minstrelsy unknown.”
The bridesmaid* looked lovely
et.ough to he brides tlietnselves, and
were dressed in elegant taste, wearing
rich, white silk dresses, with very long
trails nnd while vails of .jmll' length.
The bride was dressed in white satin,
wit It an elegant tulle veil and a wreath
of pure white orange blossoms,
When all were ill their places, Rev.
Dr. (iallandet, attired in Hie vestments
ol the Episcopal clergy, began imme
diately to rend the beautiful and solemn
marriage service of the church. At the
conclusion of eacli section he would
, repent the same in the sign language
of the mutes, and the responses were
made in like manner. The only varia
; Hon ironi the Episcopal from that could
lie observed was Hie omission of Hie
kneelin” service and laying OH °r
hands. The entire ceremony Was lit!,;'
longer than usual, nnd was witnessed
iu profound silence and interest by Hie
large and brilliant audience. At the
conclusion the newly married couple
led the way to the door, and the con
gregation remained standing perfectly
quiet. To make the description more
nil we might have mentioned that the
groom-men were tastefully dressed Ic
I black suits of cloth, with white gloves
and neckties, and each one wore n very
pretty white rosette on the facing ol
i lie left coni collar.
. We understand that the groom and
bride lell yesterday afternoon for a
bridal lour to New Orleans. From
I lienee they*g° *•> New York, to live
- permanently. The bride was a great
i nivoiiteiii society here. Her beauty,
child-like simplicity, ease of manners
and dignified womnnlv graces, won
! sincere Irlelidi wherever she was
known. The gentleman she lias mar
. lied, like herself, lias enjoyed nil the
, advantages of education, of mental hiiiI
" moral development, that money could
secure, or kind ingenious friends cun
' eeive. This alliance is one of tlio most
1 interesting social events that ever
E occurred ill Memphis, not only from
, the peculiar mental nnd physical condi
tions involved, but from the high fam
• ily connection and position in society
i of both parties. Hundreds of hearts
I unite in wishing the young and happy
i couple a continuation of joy and pros
■ perity through life.

We wish to call the special attention of our

known for Chills, Fever and intermittent# in
any form; now is the season for this dis
tr ssing complaint. It has never been known
to fail to effect a cure, no matter of Low long
si finding, if used by directions, where all
other remedies have failed. It is purely veg
etabU. and no bad effects from over dosing
need be feared—buy one botfloand get cured
\lso. Hurley’s Worm Candy for children, is
the best and most pleasant known ; any child
will lake It. Hurley’s Bitters is the moat
pleasant as well as the purest and best now
known it offered for sale; and for debility,
loss of appetite, cannot bo equaled. Also,
for purilyiug the blood, nothing equals Dr
Hurley’s Comp. Syrup of Sarsaparilla, this
is the genuine extract of the root. Dr. Sea
brooks Soothing Syrup for children is war
ranted the best ami safest remedy known, or
the money refunded—price -■'»otper bottle.
Also, his Elixir of Irou and Bark, especially
for females it is one of the best Tonics known,
and pleasant and easily taken ; not like other
remedies of the kind, it does not sicken or
nauseate. If you need any of the above
remedies try them, as we feel confident they
will do all we claim for them ; they are gotten
up by men of experience ami good chemists,
who know their business and arc reliable and

The proprietor of this celebrated medic in
j justly claims for if a superiority over all
• remedies ever offered to the public for the
safe, certain. speedy, and permanent cure ol
Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing. He refers to the
entire Western ami South-western country
to bear him testimony to ilio truth of the as
sertion. that in no case whatever will it tail
to cure, if the directions are strictly followed
and carried out. In a great many cases a
single dose has be«*u sufficient for a cure, and
whole families have been cured by a single
bottle. With a perfect restoration of tho gen
eral health- It is. however, prudent, and in
every case more certain to cure, if its use is
; continued in smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has been checked, more c.s
peciallv in difficult and long-standing cases
Usually, this medicine will not require any
aid to keep the bowels in good order ; should
; the patient, however, require a cat hart i«
! medicine, after having taken three nr four
' doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S
VEGETABLE FAMILY TMLL8 will be aulti
i cieut.
