Marriage.

Nature never did betray the soul thatloved
her: and nature tells men and women to marry.
Just as the young man is euteIing upon life
Just as he comes to independence and
mans estate inst as the crisis of his being is
to be solved, and it is to be seen whether he
decide with the good, and the great, and the
true, or whether he sink and be lost forever
matrimony gives him ballast and Alright i'm
pulse. War with nature, and she takes a
sure revenge. Tell a young man not to have
an attachment that is virtuous, and he will
have one that is vicious. Virtuous love, the
honest love of a man for the woman he is a
bout to marry, gives him an anchor for his
heart; something pure and beautiful for which
to labor and live. And the women, what a
purple light it sheds upon her path; it makes
for her no day dream, no idle hour, no painted
shadow, no passing show, but something real
earnest, worthy Of her heart and head. But
most of us are cowards and dare not think so;
we lack grace; we are of little faith; our in
ward eye is dim aud dark. The modern
young lady must marry in style; the modern
young gentleman marries a fortune But in
the meanwhile the girl grows into an old
maid, and the youth takes ehambers-ogles
at nursery maids, and becomes man about
town, man whom it is dangerous into your
house, for his business is intrigue The void
might have had a happy couple; instead, it
gets woman fretful nervous, fanciful, a
sceptc in all virtue; a corruptor Of the youth
OF both sexes; a curse in whatever domestic
circle he penetrates. Even worse may result

PRAYED; bring disgrace and sorrow on himself
und all around, and sink into an early grave.
Our great cities show what becomes of men
and women who do not marry. Worldly "a
thers and mothers advise not to marry till
they can afford to support wife, and the
boys wickedly spend double the amount in
low company. Hence it is, all wise men (like
Frauklin) advocate early marrsages; and that
all our great men, with rare exceptions, are
men who married young. Wordsworth had
only one hundred pounds year when he first
married. Lord EIdon was so poor that he
had to 90 to Clare Market, London, to buy
sprats for supper. Coleridge and Southey
we can't find had any income at all when
they got married. We question at any time
whether Luther had more than fifty pounds
a yea,. We blast humanity in its very dawn.
Fathers, you say you teach your sons pru-
dencce-you do nothing of the kind: your
wordlywise and clever son is already ruined
for life. You will find him at the faro table
and at love circles. Your wretched worldly
wisdom taught him to avoid the snare Of
marrying young, and soon-if be is not in

The Negroes ia Africa.

We are permitted, says the Boston Post,
to make the subjoned extract from a letter
written 10y an officer Of the United States ma
w, 10 friend in this city. The writer is a
son Of late distinguished Senator from one
of the New England States. The letter is
st. Louis, and dated October l5, 1856, at
Little Fish Bay, west coast Of Africa"
There is
very little variety upon this coast 'Nrggersr
slaves. 'nIggers" is the cry. This town is,
ike most other places upon the coast, made
up ot a few people, called white, and "a crow d.
mass OF miserable filthy, worthless indolent
(niggers) natives. Ii Charles Sumner, Jack
Hale, or any other sensible man, who wishes
or Is willing to be permanently cured of his
mock philanthropy and siekly senrimentaliiy
IN regard 10 the univefsa! negro race, he has
only to take SIX months cruise upon the
coast OF Africa. If that will not cure him.
and Convince him that his sympathy for the
three and "a half millions Of the happiest ne
groes upon the face OF the earth is misplaced,
then have only to say he is past hope and
past cure.
'As live, do not believe there is one
negro m one thousand upon the coast Of AZ
rca, who is AS well off, morally, physically,
or socially, rs the worst abused slave in the
United States. Slavery here is slavery in
decd, and oi the must horrible kind. Cruel
" practiced here by black slave owners is
heaft rendering to witness. Some chefs
(oidck) own thousands-they SELL torture, or
klIi them at pleasure. Nlnety-nine of every
hundred negroes, slaves or free, even in towns
Would gladly exchange their condition with
the meanest, most ill-treated slave in the Un-
ion. 1t Is impossible TO picture the misera-
be condition of the native African upon his
own soil. Civilization, or even partial cul-
ture, with tn. mass of natives, is an idea so
perfectly absurd that it does not admit of
thought. With the combined efforts of a
million competent honest, industrious, perse-
yenng philanthropists; with millions of mo.
ney yeally expended to the best possible nd
vantage for a million of years, would not de-
velop one hundred native Africans who would
be of any account to the world at large. So
much for 'niggers.' Having seen our negroes

seen them here, / regard the institution a.

Tile 81. Louis Suspension Bridge.-The
St. Louis Leader gives the following spec flea
tions of the proposed bridge over the Misss-
sippi river at that place:
The length of span will be 1000 feet, with
width sufficient for railroad cars and teams.
The cables OF iron wire on which the bridge
will be suspended Will be fifteen inches in di-
ameter, ana cable of sustaining, with the
stays, weight of 20,00o tous, while the
weight of the roadng will be 1000 tons.
These cables will weigh 3,420,000 pounds.
The cost of these cables alone is equal To the
entire cost Of the celebrated suspension bridge
at Niagara. The two towers upon which these
cables are to be suspended will surpass, as
structure of masonry, anything ever before
seen in the West, if not in the United States.
The, e,tower on the east side, To be built at The
ed e of the water, including the fifteen feet
TO the foundation, will be 257 feet in height,
and will consist of 10000 cubic yardi of ma
sonry. The tower on the Mest side will be
242 feet in height. The cables suspended
from these towers viii! on the east side, be
supported by stays 1000 feet in length, an
chored into masonry $4,000 cubic yards in
measurement. The masonry is to be of the
euofmus weight oil 33,ooo tons-amply sum
cient to furnish an uuyielding support to the
cables and bridge, with an additional weight
of over 10000 tons.
The bridge is to be suspended at height
OF sc feet above high-water mark, so that no
construction will be offered by it to any, even
the talest chimneys of steamboats,.
The estimate of the cost of the work, allow
ing a liberal margin for all contingencies, is
sl,50o,ooO. Five years will be required to
complete the whole.
