ASnn1tnn Marriage

Many of the laws Of Lycurgas in cou.
nec,ion with this subject would undoubI-
edly meet with the appreciation of tho
fair sex of modern times. The tine for
marriage WAS fixed by statute, that Of
the man about thirty or thirty 6ve. that
OF the LAZY at twenty ora little young
er. All men who continued unmarried
srsr the appointed time we're liable TO
prosecution, and all old bachelors were
prohibited from being present at the
public exercises of the Spartan msidtn',
aud were denied ths usual respect and
honors paid to the aged. why should
| give you place, cried the youns man
to the old unmarried general, you have
no cbjld 10 give place to me when en-
old?" No married portions we're given
TO any of the mai,lens, so that neither
poverty should preventa gallant, nor
riches tempt him to marry contrary 10
his inclinations. The parents of three
children enjoyed considerable immunl-
ties; and those with four aid no taxes
whateyer-i regulation which all mar.
ried men with large families will readily
admit to be the most wise and equitable,
Every marriage was preceded by a be
roIhal, as in ether Greek cities, but the
marriage itself was performed by the
young Saran carrying off his bride by
pretended abduction, and for some tims
sFterward tho wife continued to reside
with her own family, rnd only meet the
hu,ba on stated occasions This ex
ttaordinary way Of spending honeymoon
was introduced by LyGurgus. TO prevent
the husband from wasting too much Of
his iime in bis wife's society during The
first of their marriage; and in order to
economize the brides charms, it was
crstomoIy for her bridesmaid 10 cut off
all her hair on the wedding day, SO that
for some time, at lenst, her personal
attractions should increase with her
years-a very commeadable plan, which
we recommend to the wives Of the pres
ent day.
