USE OF CONFIDENTIAL" LErTERs.-In a
ruling upon this subject in the U. s. Circuit
Court, Boston, Judge Sprague decided that a
person exhibiting to another letter marked
confidential" or otherwise using its con.
tents thus publicly to the injury of the writer
or third party, was guilty of a gross viola
tion Of privileges, and might be held pecu.
niarily liable for damages resulting from
such breach Of confidence. This legal cons
truction of the term confidential is in
perfect accordance with the definition of the
word as given by Webster, viz: "That
which is to be treated or kept in confidence
private, admitted TO special confidence" and
is so plainly common sense view Of the
matter, that it seems strange any honorable
persons should misuse their confidential let.
tiers except through thong ghtlessness o,
inadvertence.
MARK1AGE.-The marriage ceremony is the
most interesting spectacle social life exhibits.
To see two rational beings, in the glow of youth
and hope, which invests life with the halo Of
| happiness, appear together and openly acknow-
ledge their preference for each other, voluntarily
enter into league Of perpetual friendship, and
call Heaven and Earth to witness the sincerity
| of their solemn vows-to think of the endearine
connection, the important consequences, the
6nal separation-the smiles that kindles to ex-
tacy at their union, must At length be quenched
in the tears Of the mourning survivor! but
while life continues, they are to participate in
the same joys, to endure the like sorrows, to
rejoice and weep in unison. Be constant, man
-be considerste, woman and whst can earth
offer 30 pure % your friendship, sodeep as you,
