The MARRIAGE Vow.-Perhaps there is
not an ordinary oath administered in any of
the transactions of life 80 little regarded-so
little even remembered by all classes-as
that taken in the most solemn hammer, and
IN the presence of the Almighty to Love,
honor, and obey" How many wives Glove,
honor, and obey" their lords? How many
even think of doing SO? and yet there is an
oath recorded against them-every simple
violation of which is distinct perjury. No
woman should marry without first knowing
her husbands character so we'll that she
may obey him with discretion and safety.
"A wife who contradicts her husband is for
sworn. No matter what manner of man he
be, she must obey, if she keep her oath.
she has made no reserve or condition at the
marriage ceremony. She has not said, 81
VIII honor and obey, if he shall deserve it."
Her contract is unconditional. 1t would be

TERRIBLE News FOR THE GrRLs.-Mr.
Croker, of Virginia, in the course of a very
bilious speech at the late Southern Com
mercial Convention, said among other 0ood
things, that "he deprecated the practice of
sending Southern girls to be educated at the
North, and stated, that only last evening he
heard no fewer than seven young men swear
that they would never marry a girl who had
been educated north Of Mason and Dixon's
line"

what a chance you will lose if you should

being opposed to southern ladies going north
to be educated; but l would go a pair of gloves,
