Married Life in France.

According to French statistics, out of thirtysix
millions Of Inhabitants in France, fifteen and q
half millions are married, or In state OF widow.
hood Eight and half millions are bachelors or
spinstsrs, leaving only twelve millions for Chill
dren-so, at least, the figures show. Thus, the
proportion OF the married would seem much larger
than might have been expected, but the number
OF their children singuarly small.
DR.. Fare thinks, however, that the type Of the
French race is improving, from the diminutien OF
bad types such as idiots and lnnatics, who do not
marry. The general opinion has been that, in the
point of stature at least, Frenchmen were rather
deteriorating In France, marriage Is much more
the result of prudential calculations and conside|
rstious than with rs, or even with the English
All 10 done BY negotiation. The marriage is not
valid unless the man is eighteen and the woman
fifteen Even then, unless the head of the family
give his or her consent, the ceremony can be set
ABIDE. Marriage Is more favorable to long life
than celibacy, as these French statistics prove.
unless 1t be very early marriages. The mortality
of males marrying before twenty is almost five
times as great, it Ii said, as OF those remaining
single. From twenty upwards, marriage seems to
about double the chance Of seeing sixty. To about
thirty the chance of life for unmarried females il
rather better than that of married. But from this
MP the scale turns decidedly the other way; and
the chance of seeing sixty is very far better for
the married than the III married female. For those
marrying under twenty, however, the chances OF
mortality are rather greater than of those who
wait till above that time, when the bodily system
IL we'll matured. Even to twenty-five, nine mar
ried women die to eight unmarried.
Referring to the common notion, industriously
propagated by superficial Travellers that France is
one Of the most immoral countries in Europe, q
contemporary justly remarks that the email farm.
ers and country people generally, who form the
great masses, are very much like that class Of PEG
pie all the world through, and about equal to the
average In point of morality, marrying and giving
in marriage, like the rest of the world. Paris is
doubtless loose capital, but its vice is less con-
cealed than in other cities, and perhaps is not
greater than in some upon our own continent
Moreover, the Ffench have their peculiar virtues,
smopg the most beautiful of which is the reyeren-
tia obedience and love of children to parents the
general freedom from intemperance, and the social
character of their smusements, to which even the
common peasant takes his whole family, that they
may share his pleasures whilst in other countries
the boor of high or low degree, deserts his home,
and goes OF to enjoy himself in solitary excess at
the gin shop in England, or the drinking saloon
IN America.
