Marriages and Births in New York.


According to the returns made under the
registration law for the year ending July lst,
1854, the whole number of marriages reported
in New York was 6,O97. There were six
cases of intermarriage between white and COL
ored people; in each case the husband being
colored and The wife white. The largest
took place in May, and of colored people in
January. AS to age, about one-half the fe-
males married were reported to be between
the ages of 90 and 25, and nearly two-thirds
Of the males were between the ages of 20 and
80. Fifty women over so years of age OBJ
tanned husbands, and one woman was married
at the advanced age of between IS and 80.
The number of widowers married exceeded
the number Of widows married to the number
of nearly hundred One divorced person
married was woman.
The whole number of births during the
year was 10 ,223, of which O,OO2 were males
and 1921 females, 1907 white and 2I7
black. The statistics are not regarded as en-
tirelY reliable, because the law has not been
strictly obeyed, the penalty for neglecting to
make the re quired returns of marriages and
births not being sufficiently severe either to
deter clergymen and doctors from omission of
duty, or to induce the officers of the law to
prosecute them. The number of both mar
riages and births is supposed to be considera-
bly, larger than reported.

A Beautiful Comparison.

The presence and the absence Of grnce is
clearly seen by comparing beautiful and
perfect elm with an equally perfect horse-chest-
nut. The former is rather to be appreciated
than described for, allowing it strength, mag
nificence, grandeur, &C., there is still over
topping all, an essential quality, that capti-
Yates every cultivated eye Every branch,
springing almost from the ground leaps into
the air. and bending and swaying, stretches lis
protecting arms over the earth beneath. Now,
a mass of light bursts through the swayng
branches, and now we are astonished by the
body and Inxuriant amount of foliage, with its
deep and impressive shadows /; the eye seems
TO penetrate far into its depths, again is thurst
back, and can only lnger delightfully."- on the
varying Ontlne.
The horse-chestnut like the cabbage, has a
top and stem-has a mass of foliage we can
see about as far into il, and are about as much
pleased with lis light and shadow it is high
" regular, and gives more delightful shade ;
but grace is totally absent

WHITE WEED.-Caplain Daniel Trefethen,
Of this town, assures US that he has discovered
a method for killing effectually this plague of
a farmers life lie says that the present
season, he had field which was literally COW
cred with the blossoms Of the white weed, so
called, and, having quantity of salt on hand,
the thought suggested itself to him, that posi-
bly, some benefit might accrue to the field from
the distribution of it upon the surface. He
scattered the salt over tie field, and in short
time the blossoms all withered, and upon ex-
animation the roots were found TO be entirely
kfeless. This is certainly valuable remedy
for the eradication of this detestabe weed, pro-
Vldlng the experiment is effectual in all cases
as in this. At all events, we should RECON-
mend to those farmers who are troubled with
Mis- species of weed, to try it.-Douer My
