but peculiar circumstances, joined 20
his i'll state of health, had retarded their
union. Pitcard was in the last stage OF
consumption, and had been confined
within doors nearly twelve months, and
60 his bed several weeks. His speedy
dissolution appeared certain. Never
theles., on Monday evening he deter
mined on being united TO the object of
his affections on the ensuing morning.
Accordingly. about 2 o'clock, he was
with difficulty dressed, and, assisted by
the arm OF his intended broiher-in-law.
proceeded towards the church with n
hrmness which astonished all his friends
and neighbors. Just, however, as he
arrived at the lodgings of his intended
bride, exhausted nature could do no
more-the bridegroom sank lifeless in
the arms OF his relatives. He was i'm
mediately conveyed home, and every
restorative medical all could suggest

Defence Of Polygamy.--The discus
sion IN the Calcutta papers, on the sub
ject Of polygsmy. has brought forth the
following plausible defence of it by a
native -" Sir. you English gentlemen
are very foad Of complaining against
the natives of this country. because
they marry many wives. II your re-
iigion and the customs OF your country
don't allow You to have more than one
woman as a wife, why should we be
guided by you. who are Of another ma
ton and religion' II is true thing,
which every body acquainted with
Asia knows, that there are more wo-
men than men in this country, whether
because more females are born, or be-
cause you EngIishmen kill the males

Then, ia this case, giving one woman
60 every man, what is to become Of the
remaining many womenl They must
have somebody to love them. The
plain truth is, we are destined by ma
ture to have many wives and much
hsPPiness--it is our good fate TO have
many wives--it has been so from the
beginning Of the world. Don't then.
pray, interfere with the decree Of ma
ture."
