TIE PINcHING TIME HAS CoME,-The tight
ness of the money market is a subject o. uni
versal conversation. It causes no surprise upon
rejecting persons. 1t has been predicted, du-
ring the last two years: and the crisis, which
mas been postponed by the iufux Of Galifornia
gold, is only the more severe, from the fact
that the last preventative has failed--giver
out! The simple, plain explanation of the
thing is. that the people of the United States
have bought more foreign goods than they are
able well to pay for, either in products or mon
ey, or in both together While, too. they have
literally imported all kinds of foreign goods
in lieu of manufactures the most of them, OF
substitutes for the same, at home, the aggre.
gate indebtness of our citizens. to European
creditors, has been rapidly increased by the
vast sums of money borrowed, for the purpose
of prosecuting railroads and other public works
which have not yet become productive.
1t follows. that large expectations ofspecie. tc
pay balances betw cen imports and exports of
goods and produce, and intererest on bonds
for borrowed money, have been continually go
ing forward until the sources of supply have
been nearly exhausted,
The cause of "the pauic'' therefore, qeing

There have been so many articles published
in the newspapers. illustrative ofthe advanta-
ges always arising from early marriages. that
we are tempted to give the following, on the
other side Of the question.
The practice of early marriages, so common
in the United States. is one Of the worst feat
ures of society. Under the most favorable
circumstances it Involves too many considers
tions, and entails too many liabilities on all
parties, to be entered into without deep and
serious reflection. II is well enough. when
young people love each other, 70 think they
cannot live apart, but il is not y for them
to marry without some good provisions for
the future. The common saying, that It cost
no more to maintain two than one is a fala-
cy, whichis every day exposed, to the great
dissatisfaction of its deiuded dupes Besides.
the bodies and minds and ofthe young, need
developement in the school of expererience.
What eoule be lightly borne at thirty, would
be their ruinat eighteenth Natures Shat age,
has no ripened US mentally or physically and
all premature developments must be fearfully
atoned for in after years. Youth does not know
its own weakness. Lacking depth and sound
judgement what it adores to-day it is often
Indifferent to on the morrow. Many have
married on the supposed strength Of first afrec-
tions, and awakened from the dream to find
themselves utterly and irretrevably miserable
There is halo about youth it is moi well
to trust Better mistrust it alto
gether, and depend upon manhood and the flu
Iure. The affection that cannot learn to la
Dor and to wait can never endure any length
Of time Its not the true love, but the false
assumed the shape of his twin. Above all
others, the poor should avoid early marriages.
In single state, poverty is cursd; but the
the double poverty of marriage is a he'll to en-
dure. Want and distress soon rob love of It's
charms, and life Of its bloom. Affection will
not make the pot boil, neither viii it pay house
rent and buy new dresses. What was irksome
TO be borue alone, is doubly so when the law
has bound its victim to another for life. Then
there are the young iRnocentss who should not
suffer bat do suffer, for the folly Of their par
ents. The thousands Of idle, ragged vicious
children in our streets and houses. are thefruiis
of early and improvideut marriages. aad half
the misery of the poorer classes results from
same cause But rich or poor. the generality
of early marriages are unhappy, and should
serve as warnings to the young aRd ardent,
who contemplate such criminal folly

From Ausaralfa.

The Boston Traveller has been furnished
with sigapore paper brought BY the Canada.
which contains accounts from the gold mines
Iof Australia, up.to the 9th of June.-Ths IS
some two weeks latter than the dates received
by way Of California. The following extracts
woald remove all doubt respecting the min
eral wealth Of that region.
All the reports of the richness ofnines are
more than con frmed by the statements Of Mr..
Stutchbury, the Government GeOlogist
There is no doubt, the official reports states
that the golden deposits exist through very
great extent Of the country, and that very
shortly the export Of gold from@Sydney will
rival that from San Francisco.
The inhabitants are described as mad with
excitement. A commercial circular dated May
I'd, says:
$50 great has been the mania for specula-
ton, that quotations Of goods have reached a
heightit viii be impossible sc maintain, and
such is the desire Of the laboring population
totry the luck, that already thousands are on
their way to the diggins. 1t is thought chat
the discoveries. viii increase the population
100000 in year
Arrangements are making on an extended
scale for importing goods into. Sydney, and .
glut like that in California will will probaly, be
the result. Its feared that many viii perish in
the mines for want Of food, Thousands have
gone there without any preparation, begging
food on the way, and sleeping in barns and
outbouses
at is related that blacksmith of Bathurst
had obtained pounds Of gold in one day.
The extent of the gold deposites cannot be
estimated with any spproach to accuracy, bu
the richness of the placers is apparently equeal
to any thing yet discovered in California. W,
hope the widest anticipation of the Australian

| OF California viii be greatly improved By tht
absence of the desperate wretches from sgd

crimes in proportion to their numbers, than
the importations from any orher, qual ter Of The

NOR. On one occasion he entreated an officer
at For, George to pardon poor fellow who
WAS sent to the halberds The officer offered

grant him the first favor he would ask Mir.
