is exposed in the matter OF marriage, there
may often be less risk Of error in choice
which is imprisoned. But ought, perhaps,
to have explained that by passion do not
mean what young ladies' sometimes mistake
for tn mere imaginative sentiment, dream
or illusion. Such imaginative sentiments,
dreams, or illusions, not only do not const-
tute passion, but they commonly rerder the
person who INDUCES them, incapable of con-
ceising one; they bring out strong fancy
perhaps, but n weak and wasted heart

WASHINGTON, Jan. l2.-It is probable that
the President and his household will visit
Cuba about the middle Of March, as Mrs.
Pierce is forbidden, on account of feeble
health, to encounter the New England Climate
before early Summer. Invitations urging n
tour through tho South have been received,
but will hardly be accepted for the cause
stated.
