Let tbe person whose name you wish to know
inform you in which of the upright eolumas tbe
ftrst letter of his name is contained. If it be found
in but one column it is tbe top letter if it occurs
in more than one column, it is found by adding
the alphabetical numbers oa the top letters
these columns, and the sura will be tbe number
f tba !!ti- aoiiarht. Bv takins one letter at
;n. t M iha whole can be ascertained.
For example take tbe word jane. ia

which are the Zd and 8tn letter oown vm
bet t the sum is 10, and the tenth letter down the
alphabet ia 3, the letter sought. The next letter,
A, appears in but one column where it etaads at
I the ton. N te seen in tne columns neaueu .
aud H t these are tbe second, fourth and gjb
! letters of the alphabet, which added soothe Min
or N, and so on. The use of this alphabet wiii
ezeite no little curiosity among those unacquaint
ed with tbe foregoing explanation. . , ;

A disconsolate husband thus bewail
the loss of bis wife, and apostrophizes her
memory :
Thus mv wife died. No more will
those loving hands pull off my boots aid
part my back hair, as only a true wife
can. ..Nor will those willing feet replen
iih the coal hod and water pail. No
more will she arise amid tbe tempestuoa
storms of winter, and gladly hie. herself
away to build the fire without disturbing
the slumbers of the man who doted or
her oo artlessly. Her memory is em-
baltncd in my heart oi Hearts. A wanted
to embalm her body, but I found I oould
embalm her memory mach cheaper.
I procured of Kh Mudget, a neighbor
of mine, a very pretty gravestone. JJle
wife was consuuiDtive. acd ne Kept ft on

his hopes were blasted. Never shall I
forget the poor man's grief when I asked"
him to part with it. ' "Take it, Skinner,
and may you never know what it is to
have your soul racked with disappoint
ment as mine has been 1" and be burst
into a flood of tears. His spins war
indeed utterly broken.
I had the following epistle engraved
upon her gravestone : "To the memory
of . Tabitha, wife of Moses Skinner, Esq ,
gentlemanly editor of tbe Trombone,
Terms three dollars a year, invariably in
advance. A kind mother and exemplary
wife. Office over Coleman's grocery, up
two flights of stairs. Knock hard. We
shall miss thee, mother, we shall mis
tbee. Job printing solicited." Thus
did my lacerated spirit cry out in agony,
even as , Rachel weeping . for her
children. But one ray of lighffpenetra-v

Why should we pine at the mysterious

silent tear to the memory of Tabitha

man, and could fry the best piece of tripe "
I ever flung under my vest. Her pick

she always doted on foreign missions. .
A Gigantic Marriage. A London
letter ssys: " What might be called

George's church, close to Trafalgar
Square. Captain Van Buren Bates, a
Kentuckian who is said to have served
in the Confederate army, and who is
eight feet high, and weighs four hundred

Scotian lady, some inches taller than the -
.. . , ... i .
Captain, ana sdoui ine same weigns,
were united ia the holy bftrjdi of mstri?
mony. The'ceremony is thus describttu
by an English witness. The hour fixed
for the solemnity; was 11 A. M., and the
affair having got wind, there was, long-
before the momentous question was put
by the priest, a goodly company of those,
spectators to whom any kind of a wed"
ins is always gratifying and a monster
wedding a joy forever. At 101 exactly
the bridegroom arrived, and walked oobh
posedly up to tbe altar. He did not
wear the uniform of tbe corps of Anakim
in which he is understood to bold a cap
tain's commission, but an ordinary dress,
f we except an exccedinelv. blue tie. At
10:50 loud whispers, succeeded by a dead
silence, announced the approaob or tbe
bride, who, pale of face, and clad in
few acres of 'white samite, mystic, won-
dcrful,' and, with her vail thrown back,
moved as majestically as her peculiar cir
cumstances or circumference would admit
of, up the nave, and looked down upon hinr
from her superior eminence with a ghastly
smile proper to tbo occasion. , She bad
been preceded by the 'two-headed
nightingale combination,' whose misfor
tune naturally caused a bust ot comment
and much hilarity. The service was read
amid a reverential scene of whispering,
giggling and climbing over pews; ana
when it was over, tbe usual signing' ot
names appeared to occupy-' more than the
legitimate time. As the reason couia
not be the length of the names, which by
no means corresponds with that of the
owners,one is driven to the conclusion that
children of Anakim, like some other
great folks, find writing a laborious and
difficult operation. At last, however, t no
psir of titans emerged from the vestry
and strode arm in arm, touovea
by the sympathizing 'combination, and
...niKMn ui tiw tiis amine nr tne "weu-
ding march,' to meet the plaudits of the
outside crowd. At 11:30 all was over.
It were rash to dip into the future; but
one cannot help seeing that if, when gi-
