MARRIED MEN.-So good was he that
now take the opportunity Of making a
confession which have often had upon
my lips, but have hesitated to make from
the fear of drawing upon myself the ha-
tired of every married woman. But now
l will run the risk-so now for it-some
time or other, people must unburthen
their hearts. / confess, then, that /
never find, and never have found man
more lovable, more captivating, then
when he is a married man. A man is
never SO handsome, never so perfect, in
my eyes, as when he is married, as when
he is husband, land the father of a fam
lily, supporting, in his manly arms, wife
and children, and the whole domestic
circle which, in his entrance in the mar
ried state, closes around him, and con-
stitutes a part of his home and his world.
He is not merely ennobled by this po-
sition, but he is actually beautiful by it.
Then he appears to me as the crown Of
creation; and it is only such a man rs
this who is dangerous to me, and with
whom am inclined to fall in love. But
then propriety forbids it. And Moses.
and all European legislators declare it
to be sinful, and all married women
would consider it sacred duty to stone
me. Nevertheless, | cant prevent the
thing. 1t is so, and it cannot be other
wise; and my only hope of appeasing
those who are excited against me is in
my further confession, that no love af-
fects me so pleasantly; the contempla-
ton of no happiness makes me SO hap
py, as that between married people. 1t
is amazing to myself, because it seems
to me that l, living unmarried, or mate
less, have with that happiness little to
do. But it is so, and always was so.

Steam.

- How wonderful arc the revolutions
which steam has wrought in the world!
The diamond, VIC are told, IS but pure
carbon; and the dream fthe alchemist
has long been to disentomb the gem, in
its translucent purity, from the sooty
mass dug up from the coal field. But if
the visionary have failed to cxtricate the
fair spirit from its earthly cerements, the
practical philosopher has produced from
the grimy lump a gem, in comparison to
which the diamond Is valueless-has
evoked Titanic power, before which
the gods Of ancient fable could not hold
their heaven for an hour; power WELD
ing the thundcrbolt of Jove, the slcdge
Of Vulcan, the club Of Hercules; which
takes to itself the talaria of Mercury,
the speed Of Iris, and the hundred arms
of Briareus. Ay, the carbon gives US,
indeed, the diamond after all: the white
aud feathery vapor that Kisses from the
painting tube is the priceless pearl of the
modern utilitarian. Without steam man
as nothing mere geological specimen
Lord Monboddo's ape, without the
caudal elongation ofthe vertcbre. With
steam man is everything. A creature
that unites in himself the nature and the
power Of every animal; more wonder
full than the ornithorhydchus-he is fish,
flesh and fowl He can traverse the il
limitablc ocean with the gambolings of
the porpoise, and the snort of the whale;
rove through the regions of the earth
with the speed Of the antelope, and the
patient strength ofthe camel; he essays
to fly through the air with the steam
wing Of the aeronauticon, though, as
yet, his pinions are net we'll fedged, and
his efforts have been somewhat Icarian.
And, albeit our own steam 9ronaviga-
ton is chiefly confined to those invoIun-
tary gambols Gas Sterne happily called
Sancho's blanket-tossing) which We now
and then take at the instance Of an ex-
ploding boiler, yet may we have good
hope that our grandchildren will be able
to take the wings of the morning." and
sip their cup Of tea genuine at Pekin.
He is more than human, and less than
divinity. Were Aristotle alive, he would
define the genus homo = neither as
animal ridens, nor yet animal senti-
ems" but "animal Vaporans." True
1t is, doubtless, that man alone can en-
Joy his joke. He has his laugh, when
the monkey can but grin and the ape
jabber-his thinking he shares with the
dog and the elephant; but who is there
that can get up the steam but man.
