JEWISH MARRIAGE.

AT tho request Of friend, We copy the fol-
zette:
sIn tho presence of these friends, LeoDi and
Sophia, were mutually contracted to each 9TH
er; and The deed especially declared, that the
marriage was to take place within six months
from its date, under penalty of a heavy for
feiture Of money Ito an amount therein speci
fed) by the receding party. This deed having
been duly signed and witnessed, the ceremony
ended, by breaking china eup,' according to
ancient usage, as u ratification of it.
"The marriage ceremony is always cole
brated with splendour and show by the Jews,
nor are the poorest among them exempt from
this custom. As every guest brings present,
chiefly consisting of plate, according to ability
the lower orders especially, are anxious to in
vitc as many as possible on that account; for
which purpose they generally hire public
room, to accommodate such large assemb-
lage; and not unirequently. when the welded
pair are very poor, these gifts are disposed of
Immediately to defray the expense Of the feast
and assist the young couple in housekeep-
ing. A friend, on whom dependence can be,
placed, is stationed near the entrance of the
apartment TO receive the presents of the guests
as they arrive; another writes down each per-
sons name and their gift, which is instantly
deposited in a chest; and after all invited have
arrived, it is locked and put in place of safe
ty If any person invited is prevented attend
ing, this circumstance does not prevent their
gifts from boing regularly sent in their names;
but those who are merely invited TO tea and
dance, arc not expected to bring anv present.
II may here bo observed, that the Jows con-
s;1 - iuh1 IN,
marriage, or in any way assist in its celebra-
ton (; but those who are in their year Of mourn
ing for near relative may not attend . we'd
ding fe asst, nor be seen where music or cards
form any part of the entertainment. Wednes-
day is the day on which the Jews celebrate
their marriages, and a second ball on Thurs
day evening concludes the feast; but if either
ofthe party havo been previously married,
Sunday Is the day chosen, and music and
dancing form no part ofthe ontertainmcnt.--
The choice Of Wednesday for the above pur-
pose still continues among the Jews; but ike
many other Of their obscrvunccs, tho original
cause for selecting that day has long ceased
to exist, and had its brgn simply because, as
the Sanhedrin held It's sitting OH Thursday, the
newly married man could Immediately bring
his wife before them, il lac had any ground OF
complaint.
"The nuptial canopy Is composed, III goncr-
al, Of crimson velvet; it is square, and support
ed at oach corner by four Of the persons pres
ent; a piece Of carpet is spread beneath it,and
tho bridegroom and bride, tho rabbi, and all
concerned in tho ceremony, stand undor it,,
whilc tho contract is read, &c. I, is depos-
tied at the Synagogue, and is brought to the
house, where theiwciding is celebrated, by the
servants Of the synagogue, and carried back as
soon as the ceremony 10 over"

U-KING OF ENGLAND. A recent En-
gish work, speaks in the following terms Of
the present King Of England:

u-KING OF ENGLANp. A recent En-
glish work, speaks in the following terms oi
the present King Of England: ..t..
"The administration Of George the Fourth
has, in fact, been an almost uninterrupted
course of popularity and prosperity, as well as
peace. With some slight verbal alteration may
DO applied 20 his government the prophetic Wis
ion Of the virgin reign;-
9e shall he loved and feared. Ills shah bless him;
His foes shake like field Of heatcn corn.
And hang their heads with Good grows with him;
In his days every shall eat in safety,
Under hi own vine, what hc plants and siDg
The merry songs OF peace 10 all his neighbours,
Wherever The bright 'un Of beay'n shall shine,
Ills honor and the greatness oI lis name
Shall be- and make nations Ch,ldI ems children
Shall see this, aud bless heaven"
Our narrow limits will not allow us to expa :
tate TO half the extent Of our feelings; on the
regal exceIloncies to which, under God, NC
owe the realization Of these delightful predic-
tions and prospects. On one or two points,
however, we cannot be silent. The kngly
prerogatlve has allied itself with the people Is
freedom, and that alliance has been moro stu
diously preserved than under any former reign.
Hence, magnificent plans ofimprovement, and
expensive undertakings in every form Of utility
and art-hence institutions for promoting relig-
ion and morality, and relieving every modifca-
ton of human disease and distress--hence, in
fact, whatever can indicate the confidence of a
free people in the permanency Of their freedom
and their disposition to make the best possible
use of it--may be seen throughout tho land, in
spring strangers, who have hoard only of our
national cmbarrassments, with perfect asonish-
ment and veneraion.
Personally, the King has distinguished him
self by somo Of the finest acts of generosity and
benevolence; and he would have shone forth
IN these llustrious characters with more bright
ness and effect, had he been less restrained by
pecunary difficulties, and less influenced by
extravagant companions, advisers and exam
pies. II, instead of these, he hnd been from
the first surrounded by real friends, siudious Of
his happiness and honor, his private character
would have equalled his public one, and the
virtues Of the man would havo kept pace with
