Grow sulen, rbbd by many brazen bar
Under the white smile OF the Cyprian star.

Among the ancient Germans, than whom
a finer race never existed, it was death for
any woman TO marry before she was twenty
years old. The unsound condition and con.
stitution Of the parent is usually trans.
mitted with increased intensity, to the off,
spring. BY the laws of I,ycurgus, the most
special attention was paid to the physiCs Al
education of women; and no delicate or
siekly women were, on any account, allowed
10 marry, DR.. Johnson, in his work on the
Economy Of health, says that natrimoiy
should not he contracted before the first
year Of the fourth septenniel, on the part of
the lady, nor before lhe last year OF she
same, in the case Of the gentleman, in other
words, the female slIond be at least twenty
one years of age and the male twenty
eight years. Tile Doctor says there should
be difference Of seven years between the
sexes, at Whatever period Of life the connec-
ton is contracted. There is difference Of
seven years, notin the actual duration Of lie,
in the two sexes, but in the stamina Of tile
constitution, the symmetry Of the form, and
the iineaments cf the face. In respect to early
marriage, so far as il concerns the softer
sex, for every year at which marriage is
entered upon before tho age Of twenty-onc
there will be, on an average, three years of
premature decay, more or less apparent Of
the corpOreal fabric.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 20.-The demonstra-
ton made by the Masonic brotherhood
here to-day is was very imposing one.
From five thousand to six Thousand
were in the line of procession, dressed
uniformly in black, with regalias, and
carrying the symbols OF the ordor.
President johnson and Governor Swami
will witness the ceremony of laying the
Corner Stone of the new temple. The
President, wearing his Masonic regalia,
reviewed the procession from the steps
of Governor Swann's residence.
The procession was formed with the
Junior lodgesi in advance. Among these
were lodges from Washington, Alexan-
dria, Norfolk, Petersburg, Lynchburg,
Winchester, Shepperdstown, and other
points in Virginia; and among the COM
nlanderies of the Knights Iempiar tnere
were those from Philadelphla, New
York. New Jersey, Louisville, NY, ana
Washington. As soon as the procession
had gathered around the site OF the
new temple, and the positions assigned
10 the various lodges had beeu taken
mn the Grand Lodge of Maryland was
onaned with the ceremonies appointed
for such occasions. The Most Worthy
Grand Master, John Coates, directed
the exercises, which consisted of the
usual impressive ritual and the chant
ing of several hymns, written for the
occasion. The ceremony was concluded
by pouring oil, wine and corn upon the
stone, the Grand Master making solemn
invocation ut each libation. J. n. Il.
Latrob, Esq, delivered the Grafton
The gavel used by the Grand Master
at the ceremonies to-day was the same
that was used by Washington when, as
Grand Master, he laid the corner stone
of the Capitol ut Washington in 1873.
1t is made of stone and capped with
gold.
Tonight, the Grand Lodge Of Mary
land will give banquet to the visiting
members OF the Grand Lodges of other
States, at Concordia Hall. The elegance
of the affair may be inferred from the
fact that it will cost $4,000. The price
of the tickets is S25 each.
