conduct the inquirer after truth along.
from one slen 10 another, gill we have
brought him 10 that point shen he is
prompted, not only by the affections.
but BY a regard for his own character
and the character of his friend, 10 make
thnse declarations OF attachment and

parn the way TIT the assumption Of

What. then. is the nature OF betrothment
And what are the circumstances which
will render It null and void!
IL remark that matrimonial engage
meui does not consist m any ofthe civil
tiles and courleses of life which gem
tleman may extend To lady. Ii is no,
uufreqnenlly the case, however, that
these are mistaken coz declarations Of
love. and the announcement is made al
once that such persons are engaged.
! Such is the impradence Of friends often,
and more frequently Of The lady herself,
| that the polileaess and attention, which
| is ever due between the sexes, are con-
strued into proposals fur ma'rimony, and
: a Young gentleman hears the repor. OF
his engagement while, as yet, not even
a dream OF the thing has passed his own
mind. By such imprpdeuce the lady
sewers herself from the society. perhaps,
of an honorable and polished mind, and

ulicauion and disappointment which will
