RUSSIA, Apr. 21, 1882. Ed. Democrat: Last week William Zoll and Bridget Collins, both of French Creek, were united in wedlock at the Catholic Church on the Lansing Ridge. They were attended by John Collins and Frances Zoll as groomsman and bridesmaid. After the ceremony they repaired to the residence of the bride's father on Silver Creek, where about one hundred invited friends had assembled to wish the young couple much joy, and long and happy transit over the stormy sea of life.

The guests whiled away the time very pleasantly, some at the terpsichorean feat, while others enjoyed themselves with songs, till the approaching dawn warned them of other duties, and all departed for home apparently well satisfied. The groom is honest and well-to-do, while the bride is a model young lady. They were both reared from childhood in this vicinity and start life with the best wishes of all their acquaintances for their future success in life. The following is a list of presents which they received:Mrs. J. O'Donnell, dozen cups and saucers, water and preserve dish. Mr. And Mrs. Fitzpatrick, lamp and picture.

"if a fellow flirted with me and then left me, I would just have him arrested right away." Young man be careful and do not flirt with her unless you mean biz. About one mile from the residence of said maid and situated in two valleys, so as to form a right angle triangle, with the maid's residence, live two old pettifoggers, one a lady, the other a gentleman, (excuse me I do not mean lady and gentleman, I do not think that would be a suitable appellation for as such they are not.) who can mind every person's business but their own, although if those two scurrilous demagogues would stay at home, for neighbors do not want them, I think they would have all they could do, and the "wolf would be further from the door." If they do not take this hint, I will have to administer such a dose as the medical gentleman from Quandahl" did to Nickel, or perhaps they would receive a "spirit communication." Which would forever place a damper on their degraded and vicious tongues, or anything to relieve an outraged community. 'Tis a wise person who can take care of himself, so let them Beware. More anon.
