in which mercenary knave, toe lazy &c
make an honest living, and base enough &c
acquire one by any process of swlndling
and fraud, seduces simple and conidlne
girl of fortune into matrimony. He cannot
be surprised if she speedily revolts from
and abhors him, nor can he rightfully invoke
the tribunals of his State 10 maintain an al.
lance which is, on his part, founded in The
meanest of all deception. Where both par.
ties are in fault-where both are discreet
and shrewd enough TO guard against arts
and dissimulation and treachery on eth.
er side--and, so qualified, deliber-
a,ely make a contract which they may or
must repent, their act should stand, in spite
of all individual suffering, il only 10 point
a moral-to warn others against their Grim
inal folly. But where a practiced man OF
the world, an adept in the cunning hypoc-
risies ana execrable charlantan:sn of "fash-
ionabe society,"" obviously deceives and
betrays the feelngs@nd faith OF young
and trusting girl, who gives her heart where
she hopes 10 receive one in return, we
would declare the Transaction unworthy ol
the morals of horse fair, and hold it un-
bound by any law, human or divine. Di.
vorces are common, too common, we admit
We would rather restrict, than enlarge the
power 10 grant them. But we would sane.
ton them in all cases in which fraud has
been used for mercenary objects, and in
which the union cannot be otherwise than
destructive of domestic peace, and an occa.
sion of public scandal.
"Whom God has joined, let no man put
assunder," Is solemn saying, but when
this command is invoked, it should be re.
membered that God is not party to any
marriage where hands, and not hearts are

LITTLE ROSE.

She comes with fairy footsteps,
Softly their echoes fall,
And her shadow plays like summer shad
Across the garden wall.
The golden light is dancing blight
Mid the maZes OF her hair,
And her fair young locks are waving free
To the wooing OF tie air.
Like sporting fawn she boundeth
So gieefully along,
AS wild young bird she caroIeth
The burden OF a soLg.
The summer flowers are clustering thick
Around her dancing feet,
And on her iace the summer breeze
Is breathing soft and sweet
The very sunbeams seem 10 inger
Above that holy head.
And The wild flowers at her coming
Their richest fragrance shed.
And OH! how lovely light and acrance
Ming le.in the life within
Oh! how fondly do they nestle
Round the soul tha, knows no sin
She comes, the spirit OF our childhood,
A thing of mortal birth,
Yet bearing still the breath OF heaven,
To redeem her from the earth.
She comes in bright-robed innocence,
Unsoiled by blot or blight,
And passeth by our wayward path,
A Sleam of ange. light.
Oh! blessed things are children
The gifts OF heavenly love;
They stand between our world.hearts
And better things above.
They link us with the spiril-world
By purity and truth,
And keep our hearts still fresh and young
With the presence of their youth.

The Harrisburg correspondent of the Sun
dag Despatch writes-There is now pending
before the Legislature a divorce case ifer-
ing materially from the ease of Mr.. and
Mrs. Fry. lt>is an application for divorce
from the bonds of matrimony, made by the
parents OF yoGns girl, scarcely fourteen
years of age. who married man more than
twice her own age, in what | should term
childish freak. 1t appears on or about the
9th OF February last the bar-keeper OF a
well-known hotel in Philadelphia induced
the girl-the daughter of the landlord-to
accompany him 10 the southern portion OF
the city, when they called at the Swedens'
Church, and were married BY the Rev. Mr..
Clay. 1t was strictly enjoined upon her to
keep the marriage a secret, but this was
more than the little girl could do, and she
confided the secret TO the mother. The So
cial and moral standing OF the husband, the
disparity of years between the parties, and
above all, the marriage of their child before
the attaining womanhood, conspred to af-
feet the parents in such manner as I
would not undertake TO describe, and 10 day
they are here seeking divorce"

MODERN LOVE.

All! yes, | really was in love,
know it sounds romantic, silly,
But sure no stole could resist
Such hounces as encircle Lilly.
She was witching spirit indeed,
With crinoline aud rings uncommon,
The ieuu ideal of belle,
Thoug not perhaps so much OF women.
| coured her year or so,
And then my angel grew quite chillyj
Mad Jealousy my breast infamed,
What new Adolph had charmed my Lilly
I sighed and smiled and lisped in vain,
BY gone oa,hs were unavailing,
Twas plain, on courtship's open sea,
Some 'faster" craft was mine outsaling.
Just then what patron saint of mine
Took me beneath his blessed guidance,
Without stilelto. rope or flood,
OF my dread rival had riddance.
