Last evening some seventy-five invited guests assembled at the resi dence of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Bak er, No. 18 State street, to witness the marriage ceremony of „their daughter, Jennie, to Mr. John W. Pratt The ceremony was perform ed by Rev S. W. Pratt, brother of the groom, of Campbelltown, N. Y. Both parties are well known in Ba tavia, the bride having been a resi dent here many years, and the groom being the gentlemanly book keeper at the Wiard Plow Works. The friends of the happy couple showed their esteem for them in the numerous and costly presents which were displayed. We join with their friends in wishing them a life re plete with happines and prosperity. ---------- ---------------- lu L in s V o M a r c h . The old veterans of the Genesee County Republican delegation to Erie in i860, and all those that be longed to the Wide-Awakes at that time are requested to meet atEUicott Hall on Friday evening at 7 o’clock sharp, to take part in the grand pro cession on that evening in honor of the brilliant victories achieved in Ohio and Indiana for Garfield and Arthur and good government.

Our readers will remember that Mr. Horace Gibbs was arrested a few weeks ago on the charge of ill- treatment of his wile W e have re ceived a communication from Mr. Gibbs in which he exonerates Mrs. Gibbs from all blame in the matter, and also says that it was not her in tention that he should be imprison ed. Her fright was due to illness and nervousness. We are pleased to announce that they have resumed their former relations. ---------- + • * - A S w e ll. It may not be amiss to mention here the ludicrous^ sight a Japanese official presents in foreign evening dress. His trousers reach only to his ankles, his si eeves are too long by two or three inchcs, and bis coat tails come down below his knees. An,old-fashioned opera hat, shaped more like a bell than anything else, and white cotton gloves, three or four sizes too large, complete the evening attire of a Japanese official and swell of the pe iod. One gets the idea that the clothes must have been sent out in z general shipment and that every man had taken the first suit he could lay his hands on. — Cor. fftra id .

T h e Trustee Election. it is barely possiM'e that the people of Union School District No. 2, have; made their purpose known to the few gentlemen who under the lead of Miles H, Bierce have for some months past stood, if not in their j own light, at least in that of their late constituents. Indeed we are confident that at least two of those gentlemen who so lately in their functions of motes or beams swelled in the; eye of the public, now feel themselves too small to obstruct its line of vision to any considerable e x tent, By a majority of 205 in a total vote o f 526 these gentlemen have been asked to give wav to others deemed more worthv to fill such a responsible trust. They know now that the people o f this district not only reward their servants for their merits, but punish them for their d e merits. Not the least satisfactory part o ft he matter is the effect of the new -law perdiitting women to vote. At yes terday's election one hundred and eight women availed themselves of their new privilege, and the over whelming character of the victory may be justly ascribed lu the way those women felt and voted.

About one week ago a young man named William Wyman cut Inis left thumb while at work in a T roy meat market. Inflammation set in, and extending from the arm to the body resulted fatally Sunday night. Early Monday morning a ctrcon taining posters and printing material of t i e Great London Circus, caught fire while attached to an accommo dation train on the Albany and Sus quehanna railroad c -ining AM-stnear Afton. T h e verdict of the coronet’s jury in the case of Hiram Haynes, who was found dead m h h,irn in \Wi?. sor last week, was that u>e *i«<eased came to bis death through the im moderate use o f liquor and abstin ence from food. A two year-old child named Mur- tagli was burned so severely on. Mon day evening at Chautauqua, that it died on Tuesday. The parents had gone out for a few momen ts leaving the child alone, when in some mys terious manner it got a cgal from the stove in its crib, setting fire to the bedding. The body of an unknown middle- aged man, about five feet eightinches in height, with full sandy bea.rd and short black hair, was found in the Skinner canal in Buffalo yesterday. He wore red overalls, and an olef coat and vest, also boots. The clothes were covered with paint, anc it is probable that the drowned man was a painter. The inquest in the case of the mur der ot August JBauerman was com menced in Rochester Monday. Sev eral witnesses were examined. In the search of the detectives they found a blood stained pair of shoes belonging to Mrs. Bauerman. It is reported that she changed her shoes on the night of the murder before the crowd came, A new lock for the fire alarm tel egraph boxes has been devisisd lately for the prevention of false alarms. When the key unlocks it the key it self is locked so that another key is necessary to free the first, Thug the chief could easily tell, as he would be the one to free the first key, who pulled the alarm. If a false key is used,the owner would lose it, and thus be prevented from pulling a second alarm.

Yt.s'er'Ky was a red letter day in the political history of Oakfield, and her citizens have to look bick many years into the past to find a political gathering anything to be compared in numbers to the one of last even ing, and where enthusiasm was so unbounded, The interest that the citizens took i. making the meeting a successful cne was displayed in handsome and becoming decora tions. O e business portion of Main street wab tastily trimmed with bunting, and made doubly brilliant with a large number o f Chinese lan terns, appropriately hung in long lines from, one side o f the street to the other, Several residences along the line ¡of march gave evidence that many o f the citizens o f Oakfield take an interest in political matters, and that they found an occasion last even ing Hr manifesting their enthu siasm and adding to the generalout- bnrst o f rejoicing and good feeling. Long belore the line oi march had been formed, the streets were alive with people, and one would infer that the country adjoining had been depopulated, and that everyone had laid everything else aside and crowd ed into Oakfield to witnes, if not to join in the demonstratiens of the evening, The procession headed I \ O i iiil&s Chamberlin and the JBa-r lavi. 1 Union Cornet Band was form^ edcm Hiain street. By invitation tiie •‘JBlms in Blue” from several adjoining owns were present. Ba tavia, Eli~>a, Alabama and Stafford, t urntd cut a full quota of men, and us the procession 550 strong, each uian uni ormcd and bearing a torch^ imrUicil down Main street, the faces oftne people who lined both side« ot the sir<t*r as seen in the glare of the tonlifs. showed that they enjoy ed the (¡i hhI leehng which prevailed. Cheers « |k n cheers greeted the pro cession wherever it wended its way. Alter parading, the several conn pa nics loncied in line around the park, and took a more substantial and ac tive pari in an unexpected but n one the lesspleasant feature of the even ing’s program. A lunch had been prepared by the ladies of Oakfield, and they must have been gratified fiver the hearty manner in which theiT efforts were appreciated. The 3 ine o f march was then broken and the crowd soon filled the Olcoti House hall, and for over an hour i'ave close attention to an ablepolit-. ical argument by General Warwick, of New ’York. T h e audience took every occasion to applaud the speak er and n ot only showed their appre- ciationof the address, but that they were alive to the issues of the day, and took a deep interest in forth coming events. Taken all in all it will be many a day before Oakfield will feel her pulse beat so high with political en thusiasm as last night. Great credit is deserved by those through whose efforts this meeting was brought about, a.nd to whose zealous work it was made, such a signal success. After tli« procession the Batavia and Elba lands were invited to the resi dence o f Charles Chamberlin and partook of a bountiful lunch. Thus ended a meeting of unbounded suc cess and one hot soon to be forgot ten. ------------«.+.« -------- -- N O T I C E .
