General Houston.

twill be seen by the debate in the Senate,
which we publish to-day, that General HoUsroS
has received an unmercifu castigaton at the
hands Of the South Carolina senators.
General HousToN has undertaken, of late, to
deal extensively in unionism-and to be partic-
ularly scandalized at the course of South Caro-
lina-the State to which he is indebted more
than any other if not more than all others, for
being now a citizen Of the United States.
Perhaps the man who voluntarily left this
Union, has a peculiar right to denounce State
for leaving it-particularly as he was one of the
most reluctant of the Texans to return But
we forbear. Messrs. BUTLER and RnETr have
performed 80 severe an operation on his sensi-
bilites, that we cannot find it in our heart to
augment his sufferings. We are happy, how
ever, to know that the Generals feelings are not
acute enough to make him martyr for this glo-
rious Union-although, perhaps, in the intensity
of his love, he is prepared to accept the Presi-
dency, f it should be insisted on We hope b.
fore that occurs, he will understand the Consti-
sutton Of the United States n little better than
he did that of South Carolina

A Word TO OLD MAIDS AND BACH
ELoRs.-Men should not marry, it is often
said, unless they can not only maintain for
themselves the social position to which
they have been accustomed, but extend
the benefits Of that position to their wives
and children. A woman who marries is
entitled to be kept in the same rank and
comfort in which she was reared. We en-
tirely disavow these doctrines. 1t should
be the aim of every married couple to
make their own fortune. No son and
laughter, who becomes man and wife, are
Untitled to rely on their patrimony, but
should willingly commence life at a lower
tep in the social ladder than that occupied
oy their parents, so that they may have
the merit and happiness Of rising, if pos
'ible, to the top. Imagine the case Of an
aged couple, who by great perseverance
have acquired possession of immense
wealth, and are living in style of ease
and splendor which is no more than the
reward of their lSpglife of industry. VIII
any body say that the children of such old
folks should live in the same grandeur as
their parents; !; The idea is preposterous.
They have no right to such luxury, they
have done nothing to deserve it, and if
their parents are honest in dividing their
property among them, they can have no
means of supporting it. Yet marriages
are contracted On the principle that the
married couple shall be able to keep up
the rank to which they have been accus-
toned under the parental roof. 1t is
