Marriage.

Marriage is to woman at once the hap
pesl aud the saddest event of her life; it is
the promise of future bliss raised on the
death OF all present enjoyment. She quits
her home, her occupations, her amuse.
menl, everything on which she depends
for comfort, for affection, for kindness,
for pleasure. The parents, by whose
counsels she dared to impart every en-
bry" thought and feeling; the brother who
had played with her-allernatively the
counsellor and the counseIed-all to he
resigned at one fell stroke; and yet she
flies with joy into the unlrodden path be-
fore her. BuoyeG up by the confidence
of requiled life, she bids fond, grateful
adleu to The life that is past; and returns
with excited hopes and joyous anlicipa
lion of the happiness to come. Then
woe to the man that can blight such a
lair prospect, who can treacherousIy lure
heart like that from its peaceful enjoy.
menl, and The watchiul protection al home
who can, cowardIy break the illusions
that have won her. and destroy the con-
tidence which love had inspired. Woe 10
