AN ENGLISH BARoNET IN LIQuoR. IA London
paper, in its police department, relates the in
cident of Sir James Sutherland McKenzies
to him: ttI HHU
"Sir James McKenzie,I have consented, upon
the application of your solicitor, to discharge
you upon your entering into your OWE. recog-
nizances OF G200 to keep the peace At the
same time | much regret that d man in your
station OF life, who ought to be able to COM
mand bail, is unable to procure it and hope
that on your own account, you will be more on
your guard in future. am afraid you indulge
in drinking to excess. You know that boys
and the vuigar. order of people, seeing d man
under the influence OF liquor, are too apt to
follow and annoy him. People will insult q
drunken man. | hope, for your own sake, you
will for the future be on your guard, or you
will get into constant scrapes; and it is my
duty to tell you, that if, after what has oc-
Cured, you are brought before me, or any other
magistrate, you will, in all probability, be
treated with the utmost severity of the law"
FEMALE PHYsIcIANs.--It is a great social evil
that 80 few occupations are open to woman, by
which honorably to obtain her livelihood; for
this forces her to establish herself in life by
matrimony almost exclusively, and hence con-
ventional marriages. If, as Miss Beecher re-
marks in her Wrongs of Women" females had
the same access to employment that men have,
they would be more independent, and, as a con-
sequence, would less often allow mercenary mo-
tives to decide their choice of husband. Now
there are many avocations which woman can
pursue better than man; and we suspect that
prescribing for the SICK Of their own sec is one
of these. While we hold that the destiny OF
woman generally is to be wife and mother,
we would not exclude from an honorable main
tenance those who prefer to remain single, by
closing respectable professions against them,
nor would we compel women to marry in order
to live The old writer was correct who said
that the meanest way to make living was to
marry for that end.--Phu Epe. Bulletin.
