ZgfGeEty rs7Oardrd-SundaY fen
night a wedding was to have taken
place between 4 young couple be-
longing TO the neighborhood of Mer-
thyr-Tldvil, ana comfortable Prepar-
atoms were made TO regale the COM
pany afembled on the occafon. At
the appointed hour the bride made
her appearance, arrayed in her beft
apparel, aad her friends were waiting
20 accompany her to the altar bur
alas the bridegroom was not TO be
found ! after 4 coniiderable tim E
had been fpent in fearch, the baPPy
man was dilcoveTed hid in a thicket,
and on being routed from the cover,
he funk home and retired to bed t,
complaining of igals9Ghon and that
his fiiter had taken away his clothes.
On the following morning, however,
the tim.d youtb was efficiently recov-
cred 70 relume his daily labour, on
his appearance at which hewas cheer
"a by the loud huzzas Of a numer-
Gus concourfe Of young women,
who had afembled TO chaltilc
thc culPrit for his faithlefs condud.
After dragging him from the
workfhcp. and giving him a COM
pletc coat Of tar, they thickly itud-
ded him with feathers, then mounted
him on a plank, and carried him in
triumph to the church-door Vain
were the poor delinquent's fuPPica-
tions for mercy, his female torment-
ors would hear nothing. After he
had been expefed fuh>iently, the
men who had afhlted in the ceremony
we're about to withdraw, but the
festberrd deeriver fearing 70 be left
alone amiiit fuch a troop Of furious
amazons, bribcG his male-profccutOrs
with half guinea's worth Of ale to
efcort him in lafety out Of the reach
OF further vengeance. This IS iald
TO be the third woman he has thus
grolsly deceived, and we may very
reafonably hope it will be the lai, as
the dread Of punifhment may act
more powerfully on his mind than
any innate feelings of honor.
