WILDER, a merchant, who died leaving no issue; married 2. at Beemerville, 8 March, 1859, by Rev. Mr. Crosette, to the HON. JOHN PARKER JORDAN, of North Carolina. A happy union of the North and South. The bridal party left immediately for New York City, stopping for a few days at the St. Nicholas, where they received the _elite_ of the city, and then went to Baltimore, where at Barnum's, Mrs. Jordan, with the ease and grace of manner so natural to her, received their friends, and made the entertainment very interesting. From Baltimore they proceeded to Mr. Jordan's home in the Old North State. Mr. Jordan is a son of Matthias Jordan and Sally Smith, both of illustrious English descent, and on the mother's side tracing back to the Colonial Governor of Virginia. They were planters, on the James River, but moved to North Carolina in early life, engaged largely in the East India trade--lost a large fortune by the ravages of the war of 1812. Hon. J. P. Jordan is a lawyer, self-educated, but rose gradually to eminence in his profession, and has several times been a member of the Legislature. He is at present (Dec., 1875,) engaged in important business in Washington, D. C.
