Society and EARLY Marriages

"Old Blackwoo that Nestor of
Magazines, INDUCES in the following SEN
sible remarks. They were written for the
other side Of the Atlantic, but will bear
transportation:
Seriously, do not think the clubs
alone have to answer for the decrease in
early marriages. Other modern improve
ments in society must bear their share of
blame. would back the hearts-I mean
the girls-aa ainst the clubs any day, only
give them fair play. But no sensible man
OF moderate means--no man who has to
work, and is willing to work. for his liveli-
hood might, perhaps, say, no sensible
man in any positiou--picks his wife ont of a
ballroom or opera-boX, however much he
may like to see her there. A true woman
has much more chance-we all know it
OF winning any love that is worth her win
ming. in her own home, in her undress, in
her little nameless every day unstudied
graces, sitting OH stile, lettering by ii
brook. rat:llng in a railway carriage or
busy and unconscious amid common house
hold duties, than in what the sex choose to
consider the especial scenes of their glories
and their triumphs.
81 have read somewhere. or have been
told that any woman, three removes from
Gorgon, in personal attractions, can make
any man propose to her if she has the
chance of living in the same house with
him for month. | am inclined, with some
modification, to believe it, humiliating as
it may seem to us noble animals AT all
events, there was much more chance oil
early marriages, and happy ones, too, when
neighbors of that large class who have
children at their desire, but little sub
stance to leave them, met as neighbors
when personal Intercourse was more un-
restrained; when lad could grow up in
intimacy with another family, and learn 10
call the girls by their Christian names;
without any fear Of being asked his inten-
tons; when there were such things as
fishing parties, and lounging in gardens,
and country rides and rambIes on long
summer mornings, and family dinners and
round games on winter nights, not to speak
of extempore dances to which no one cared
going and returning eight or ten miles,
packed into any kind of conveyance, six
inside, or we'll wrapped up. three in gig,
"the more the merrier."

Fever and .Ague,

from which mankind suffer large part Of
the globe. is tho consequence of a diseased action
in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm Of
vegetable decay. This exhalation Is evolved by
the action of solar heat wet SOIL and rises with
the watery vapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this vapor fingers the earths
face, and the virus is taken with it through the
lungs into the blood. There il acts irritating
poison the internal vscera and excreting organs
of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails TO
secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation, and produce violent constitu-
tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and become
disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our
ganism, if in attempt to expel the noxious
infusion, concentrates the whole blood of the body
in the internal excretores to force them to cast It

the central organs with congestive violence. This

FEVER follows, in which the blood leaves the CEN

that other great excretory-the skin. In this

to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These

In all tho pomp OF death repose,
The socds Of many bloody nose,
The scattering tongue, the horrid oath,
The list, for fighting. nothing 10th,
The passion which no words can tame,
That bursts like ulphur INTO flame,
The nose catbuncled, glowing red,
The blackened eve. the broken head,
The tree that bears the deadly fruit
OF murder, moaning and dispute,
Assaults that Innocence assAils,
Tao images Of gloomy jails,
The giddy thoughts on mischief bent,
The midnight hours Ia riot spent
All these within this jug appear,
And Jack, the hanglnan, IN the rear.

body. AS it should, so il does cure this affecting
disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more
or rather does what Is Of more service to those sub
lect to this infection If taken in season It expels
It sTom the system as it is absorbed and thus keeps
those VINO use IL free from its attacks; keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not only cures but protects from,
the great variety of affections which induced
by this malignant influence, such as Rernittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, Masked Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-
6ons, Painful Affections of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Cohc, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of the
Stomach and Bowels, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This AGUE CURE I"
removes the cause of these dcrangcmcnts and cures
the disease.
This it acc0mplishes by stimulating the excre-
tories to expel the virus from the system and
these organs by degrees become habted to do this

important advantage to- the public, which is, that
