MARRIAGE IN DUNEDIN.

On Thursday the 14th inst., the N. Z. Tablet office was en ftie owing to the marriage of Miss Harriet Connor second daughter of Mr J. J. Connor, manager of the Company's printing department, to Mr T. G. Kenny, of Timaru— Miss Connor having herself also been for some 8 years connected with our office — where her kind and obliging disposition had made her a general favourite. The ceremony took place in St. Joseph's cathedral, the Rev. Father Lynch, who administered the Sacrament, celebrating as well a nuptial Mass, at which the bride and bridegroom, the bridesmaids aad the gentlemen more immediately interested received Holy Communion. The facts that a nuptial Mass was to take place and that tbe bride was so well known and bo much esteemed, made the attendance unusually large. Just at 11 o'clock the line of carriages drew up, and Mr Connor, with his daughter on his arm ascended the entrance to the Cathedral which was crowded with the young bride's friends. Miss Connor wore a very handsome dress of white silk jacquard, trimmed with rich lace and sprays of orange blossom? with a handsome wreath and veil, the train being carried by Miss Geraldine O'Connell and Miss Tessie Connor, two very small ladies who wore the usual white dresses and wreaths foreuch occasions. There were four bridesmaids, Miss W. Connor, Miss L. Kenny, Miss Mary Connor, and Miss Justena Connor, who wore cream dresses and arophene hats with cream feathers. Messrs McCleiry and J. J. Connor jun. were the best men. The weddiDg breakfast which took place at the residence of the bride's father, was numerously attended by friends of both families, some of them travelling long distances — after which the happy pair, amidst the time honoured ahower_sof rice, were driven to the railway station where they were again met by large numbers of young friends all anxious to wish them every happiness. In the evening Mr and Mrs Conuor invited about 100 young people to enjoy themselves at Girton Hall, where they thoroughly did justice to all the good things provided, and spent a most pleasant evening. The wedding presents, numbering about 100, were very hand* some ; many of them being both beautiful and costly.

Messrs T. and W. Mooney, 61 Ferry Road, Christchurch, are tar n ing out to order, and in first class style, butchers' and bakers' carts, and carts, cars, drays, and vehicles of every description. The firm also undertake repairs, executing them with the utmost despatch and skill. Mr Frank A. Cook has taken the well-known premises, 222 Colombo street, Cbristchurch, where the public will find all their wants in the way of teas, groceries, wines, and spirits admirably supplied. Mr Cook being the contractor for the Asylum and Burnham Industrial School, must necessarily understand the business, and deal only in the best goods. Persons desirous of increasing their libraries would do well to apply for a catalogue of the books kept in stock by Mr E. O'Connor; Barbadoes street, (Jhristuhurch. They will thus be made acquainted with several standard works worth reading, or will have recalled to their memory the names of works they have forgotten. They will also find that Mr O'Connor's prices are remarkably low. Farmers would do well to inspect the new harrow made by Mr Galloway, Cumberland street, Dunedin. They will find it well worthy of a trial. Messrs Lonargan and Co., Cashel street, Christchurcb, invite % trial of their excellent stock of drapery and clothing. Nothing is wanting except a trial of the firm's excellent goods to prove how advantageous to all most be the patronage of their establishment. Every attention is given to style and fashion, superiority of quality being also fully taken into account.
