Here is a warning to young bridegrooms, who are discreet at the table :— A week or two ago, says a Paris letter, Mr II , living in the Rue Washington, married a Mdlle. D— . From the Mairie the wedding procession went in joyous pomp to the church, then to the Bois de Boulogne, and from thence to the chalet de Suresnes, where a sumptuous repast was served. At midnight it was perceived tbat the bridegroom had disappeared. They vainly awaited his return. Great commotion ensued among the guests, who, with the bride at tbeir head , her arm i a that of a groomsrnan,Js(arted out with lanterns in search of the tnissingone. They searched the environs in vain ; finally they entered Paris, where tbe bride passed the night in the nuptial chamber, a prey to the wildest grief. It appears that the groom, after drinking to heaviness, went out to take the air • he began walking, but two policemen found him soundly aßleep upon a bench in the ChampsElysees. He was unable to explain himself, and so was taken to a station and kept over night. Next morning his mind was clearer ; he Btated his case and soon found his way into the preeepce of bis pyerjoyedl. ite.
