WEDDING.—Wednesday evening Rev. R.
Paul tied the matrimonial bow between

Mercer, both of Brussels. The ceremony
was performed at Victoria Cottage. The
actions of a rabble of young lade as the

minister's did not say much for the good
manners of Brussels. If the Constable
bad filled up both cella in the look -up and
stopped the "jubilee" he would not have
exceeded hie duties. Two paves of glace
were broken in the Smale bloats by apples
or some other misele thrown. There
may be some trouble over the matter yet
as the names of a few of the promoters
of the noise are in hand. The least that
can be done would be for those interested
to make good the price of the glass de-
stroyed.
