an unusual incident. At Plymouth, the day before the sailing of the Giccro, which arrived last week at Lyttelton with immigrants, a young follow named Hatch, who had taken a passage ou hoard the Weuuiugtou ns an immigrant, came to the doctor and asked him if he could go by the Cicero instead. Ou being questioned he admitted with perfect candor thathe was iu love with Stepheua Lowary, one of the immigrant girls, their ages being twenty and nineteen respectively. _ The courtship was countenanced, and the doctor s hospital on deck set apart for its being earned on. One beautiful morning, shortly before crossing the line, they were married on the main deck, all facing the stem, the bride being attired m a white dress, with green and white ribbons. The honeymoon was spent ou the poop that afternoon, The best man and bridesmaids also came up, everyone being got up extensively, and being allowed on this exceptional occasion to taste the sweets of each other’s society. The wedding breakfast was held in the single girls’ compartment, and the saloon passengers went down and tasted the cake and wine, had themselves cheered, and their healths drunk. On May 2nd, while in the Indian Ocean, three infants, belonging respectively to Mrs Bnymtmd (the captain’s wife), Mrs Whituell, and }.}'% Pftrl ’y. w ere christened in the saloon. A beautiful silver font, which had been presented to Mr Carlyon before sailing, was used, and the reverend gentleman appeared deeply affected during the ceremony.— 1 Press.’
