Who humblest thyself to behold thc things that are done on the earth, und before whom tho splendor of human pageantry van ishcth into nothing! Hy thee rulers bear sway; Thou teachest Senators wisdom. We own thy kind provi dence, thy fatherly care, in thc peace ful origin of the government of these 'Confederate States of America.' We thank thee for thc quiet considerate unanimity which has prevailed in our, public councils: and for the hallowed auspioes under which tho government of our choice- begins. Let ihy special blessing rest on the engagements and issues of this day. Thou bust pro vided us a man to go in and out beforo us, and to lead thy pooplc.

"With the like favors, bless the Congress of thc Confederate States, and all who are, or may be, charged by lawful authority with public cures and labors. Put thy good Spirit into our whole people, that they may faith fully do all thy fatherly pleasure. Let the administration of this govern ment bc the reign of truth and peace , let righteousness, which exaltcth a nation, bc the stability of our times, and keep us from Bin, which is a rc-? proach to any people; establish thou the work of our hapds upon us; turn the councils of our enemies into foolish ness; and grant us assured and con tinual peace in all our borders! "Wc ask all through Jesus Christ our Lord; Amen!" "Hon. Howell Cobb, President of Congress, administered the oath of office, the'Presidcnt laying his left hand on tho Bible, and reverently holding up his right hand. At thc close of the oath the President audibly repeated the concluding words, 'So help me, God!' "The day was pleasant, and the pageant was very fine. I believe it was tho largest crowd I ever saw to gether. May thc blessing of God rest on this government of tho Confede rate States!"

My parents are in medium circumstances, hut live in the country und in a small house. I am to be married this win ter, and want to know something of the etiquette such au occasion would demand. Shall I send announce monts t ? a few friends and be quietly married at home, or send invitations and Iel the ceremony beut the church' Ano whom should th" invitations ? i | aiinouuceinent.s embrace? Would it be proper to send otu; to my dentist, pb\ <?fijan, merchant and ot!i< : . ?!' m) | city friends with whom I uni ! ?miliar, or would ii savor t"" much "i'< xpeet: iug a gift? ; And would a broadcloth tailor-made | suit be appropriate for < ither home or i church wear? And with two nice i black silks that l-alrcady have, and a garnet Kreuch diagonal, would it bc necessary to has.: any oilier new dre--.-, than thc broadcloth? And please state how to address the invitations or announcements, und if it is necessary to put a '1 cent stamp on. 1 like things done with "decency and order," but yet with an eye to economy. Any other questions that I have failed to ask will be thankfully ap preciated if von will answer i ti your reply. COUNTRY Gnu.. j There is no pleasanter task than to j advise a young girl about her wedding j - that is, provided she is like Coun try Girl, sensible and intelligent, re garding marriage as a sweet and seri ous thing, and not simply as II good opportunity for gening an elaborate trousseau and of settling in life as the wife of a rieh or prominent man. Mar na':" means the beginning of a new bonn-, of a new life, a new center of influence. While everything in rca son should bc dom.' to make her wed ding beautiful, it is certainly much moro sensible to take the money that would bc used simply for display and put it. into comforts for the new home, that will be a pleasure to many Tor years to come. Keeping this thought in mind, it is simply a matter for P'-r sonal ta-ti lo decide whether thc wedding shall h?. ut home or in the church! The hume webling means fewer guests, hui there is a sweetness mid simplicity about it that bas a charm for many. There are those who feel that they want only thc friends who really love .hem tc ho present at the ceremony, while others believe that marriage is both a civil and religious act, and the only proper place for its solemnization is the house of God. For a small home wedding the invita tions might be written by the bride to thc few friends and relatives she desires to have present, und engraved announcement cards sent out imme diately after thc wedding to all friends and acquaintances of the family. Thc form of the announcement would bc: Mr. and Mrs. William James Smith Announce thc marriage of their davgh tcr, Mildred Anne, to Mr. John Rawson Brown, Tuesday, January twenty-fourth, Kighteen hundred and ninety-nine, Louisville, Kentucky. Any good city stationer will semi forms to select from. There are, of course, two envelopes; thc outside one should be souled, addressed to Mr. and Mrs. Roswell l\ Jones, 201)Blank Street, Louisville, Ky., and have a 2 cent stamp. The inner envelope should bear the name only, without tho address, as Mr. and Mrs. Roswell I*. J ones. These announcements should be sent to thc friends and acquaintances of both families. For a church wedding in a small town thc invitations should bc gener al. A scusible persou does not feel obliged to give a present because in vited to a church wedding. Presents should come only from those who feel a personal interest in tho bride and groom, and who give for love of them and for no other reason. Certainly no rightminded girl ever receives any pleasure from a wedding gift that i comes as a mere matter of form from one who has no affection for her. In regard to tho trousseau, every thing depends upon the purse and tho position of thc individual. Styles change so that it is always foolish for n woman to have more dresses than she actually needs. It is better to buy a few dresses and to wear them out boforo thc styles change than to have so many gowns that they must bo made over and over to suit tho changing fashions before they arc worn out. If a girl livos in a small place, where the life is quiet, she will not need so many gowns as the bride who goes to a large oity, where she will bo constantly attending teas, dinners and receptions. Tho prospective bride will know about what to expeot in her future home and should provide her self \\it!i clothes suitable for all oc'eji >i- !t-. A black clotll tailor-mt i- the latest stylo for church or street wear, li- -?unbrem ss ; rt I ic veil by a bright colored -ilk waist or neck arrange ment. While all these external things are of interest to the bride, ii is upon the home, of which she is to be thc life, that brr bean and thought should center. "Happy will be that house in . which thc relations arc formed from character, after the highest and not after the lowest order; the house i ?J which character marries, and not con fusion and a miscellany of unavowable motives. Then shuil marriage bc a covenant to secure to either party the sweetness and liouOr of being a calm, continuing, inevitable benefactor io the oilier.

I fi IIISRftSrl ninny so-called purifiers and tonics because some UU?UIIUIG UluuUoOi thing more than a mero tonic is required. S.S. 8. is equal to any blood trouble, and never fails to cure Scrofula, because it gocB down to the seat of tho disease, thus permanently eliminating every trace of tho taint. The serious consequences to winch Scrofula surely leads should impress upon those afflicted with it the vital im portance of wasting no time upon treatment which con not possibly effect a cure. In many cases where the wrong treatment has been relied upon, complicated glandular swellings have resulted, for which the doctors insist that a dangerous surgical operation is necessary. Mr. H. ?. Thompson, of Milledgeville, Ga., writes : "A bad caso of Scrofula broke out on the glands of my neck, which had to be lanced and caused me much suffering. I was treated for a long while, but the physicians were un able to cure me, and n?y condition was as bad as when I began their treatment. Many blood remedies were used, but without effect. Some one recommended S. S. S., and I began to improve as soon as I had taken a few bottles. Continuing the remedy, I was soon cured permanently, and have never had a sign of the disease to return." Swift's Specific S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD -is tho only remedy which can promptly reach and cure obstinate, deep-seated blood diseases. By relying upon it, ana not experimenting with the various so-called tonics, etc., ali sufferers from blood troubles can De promptly cured, instead of enduring years of suffering which gradually but surely undermines tho constitution. S. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable, and^ never fails to cure Scrofula, Eczema, Cancer, Rheumatism, Contagious Blood Foison, ?Soiis, Tet ter, Pimples, Sores, Ulcers, otc Insist upon S. S.
