TITS BEST TO GET MARRIED. Mr. Farr a
statiscian connected with the Registrar Gener-
ais Office in London, has recently read a paper,
which was afterwards printed in the Daily NeaUs,
on The Influence of Marriage on the Mortality
of the French People Hesays +" A remarka-
BILE series of observations extending over the
whole of France enables us to determine for the
first time the effect of conjugal condition on the
life of large population. The result confirms
the common opinion of the evil consequences OF
marriage in many cases under the age of twenty,
before growth of the individual man or woman
is pleted The married from tUenty 10 sirty
mace a toacer death rate than the unmarried. =
Among the widowed higher mortality prevails
than amongst the married.
DR.. Farr sums up" This is the general result.
Marriage is healthy state The single indi-
vidual is more likely to be wrecked on his voy-
age than the lives joined together in matrimony.
To the question. Is any part of the excessive
mortality of the single in France referable ia
2" DR.. Farr's answer decided, ITO vice
and its irregularities" which he tells us induce
half the sickness and indirectly, some of the
immortality Of the army, which in this respect
fairly represents the uRmaFaied population
