From Featherstone.
The first decennial anniversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Tripp was celebrated at their residence in a very pleasant manner on the evening of the twenty- third. After the party had assembled, and the greetings had gone round, wedding presents were bestowed with amazing profusion. Amid many congratulations the bride became the recipient of tin enough to make her culinary prospects bright for another ten years. While the bridegroom's pleasure knew no bounds, he received a watch and chain and a tobacco box ; the latter was a big thing but the former was a bigger. He carefully placed it in his breast pocket, and for the rest of the evening was the center of attraction. The supper was excellent, tempting for the most delicate, and abundant for the most hearty. After each one was satisfied as to its merits, a few games were played, and the gathering broke up, all agreeing that it was a most happy affair.     ONE.
