The phantom Of perpetual bachclorhood

at anything In nnture, however strangct
especially In matters wherein the heart, not
the; mind, holds absolute sway, aud it Is
surprising that the world wish to ciscum-
scribe matters OF mere taste aud feeling
to certain fixed rules. How often have wa
seen the tall, strapping man pafr of with the
slender, dIminntiye female-the large, mnscu-

man. How often, again, have we seen the
'plainest man marry the most handsome wo-
man, and stee sersa. How. many times Is
talent coupled with stupidity, knowledge
married 10 ignorance; wit and mt1th Joined
in wedlock with gravity mud melancholy;
folly leading wisdom by the nose pride and
1ank hulnbled Into q union with obscurfty,
andjwealth running mad after poverty. Money
Is the only ono thing In which univorsality
Of taste seems TO prevail among mankind.
