The CELIBACY IN GREAT RRIrAIN.-W What
are the causes Of celibacy? Is it the inevita-
bic lot of millions of persons in this country!
1t was found in 1851 that 2 in of all the
women in Great Br tian, of the age of 90
and upwards, were without husbands, and Of
every 100 women between 20 an 40 years Of
age 40 were set down in the population Ia
bles of that year as 'spinsters" The Censu,
Commissioner of S5l predicted that detin-
tie and very large percentage of the popua
ton then living would never marry, and
there is every reason to believe that theiI
prediction was only under the mark
The tables of the census If 1861 viii
show that lager proportion than at the
end of the previous ten wears remained un
married, and that there are are not only
many more "spinsters" now than there were
ten years ago, but there are moie in com
parison with the total number of women; ST
that celbacy is increasing in rate as well a:
in amount Is this the fault of men, or a,
we ought to say of the unmarried men %
our time! According to a late eminent
writer, we have no choice at all about the
matter He reasoned from statistics tina
the number of marriages is determined "no

bv the facts over which individuIs can exer

fixed and definite relation to the price o
corn" and in England the experience of :
century has proved that, "instead of having
any connection with personal feelings. they
are simply regulated by the average earning
of the great mass of the people" The sta
tistics of the year which has just closec
seem to afford sad confirmation of the
premises of this argument, if not of its con
cusion, for the RegistrarGenerars returns
show that the number of marriages in Ian
cashire declined with the rate of wages

Repudiated by their Friends.

The Sacramento correspondent of the
Marysvile Appeal, an out and out Abolition
sheet, is compelled to admit the corruption
ton of the party, as witness his remarks
upon the exposures made upon the Federal
officials at San Francisco:
"The revelations Of official chicanery and
corruption on this coast, made by Secret
Agent Brown to Secretary Chase, and dir
vulged to readers on this coast through the
Washington correspondence of the Union,
constitute the prominent theme of converse
ton here They are very sickening, graft
flying nobody but disappointed aspirants who
find their revenge in them. Some of the
persons implicated are men whose names in
times past were identified with unsefsh al
vocacy of righteous principles, the unpopu-
lar but now dominant, part of history and
of national law. 1t is saddening to think
that such men, for little lucre, have wan
tony effaced the credit gained by their dc
fence of these principles at time when
their defenders were few. But more sadden
ing it is to reflect that there should be 80
much venaIity and corruption among the
officers of Government the most generous
on earth, at the moment of its struggles
with the woud-be PARTICLES who are band
ed against it in rebellion the most unhoy
known to men. When one contemplates
the sordid and fraudulent developments Of
these fearful times, it almost seems as if
there were not virtue enough in the Repub
lie to save it, and as if. like the Roman
Empire it must shortly die of lis own rot

most Of our valuable horses arc over fed

liberal individuals. The impression we
wish to convey to the mind os the read
or is that the food OF such is not proper
toned to labor; Of, in other words,
there exists disproportion between
the amount Of carbon taken in the form
Of food and the oxygen received in the
process OF respiration.
Now, TO illustrate this, we will suppose
that man engaged in menchatile per

no time nor iWclination to give the one

exercise they stand up to full crib every
day, enjoying or rather gorsing them
