WIDOWS vs. NAIDESs.--4 Richmond paper says that
young men are scarce in that city and maidens and
widows in search of husbands very plenty The latter
seem to be the most Successful and the editor pleading
in behalf of the madcns, says:
1--WE do not think in view Of the great scarcity of
men, that 1t is fair for widows to marry a second time
until all The young madens have secured husbands
The legislature ought to attend to this matter and pro,
tec the interests Of the young ladies' for, without the
aid Of legal enactments the widows play the
grab game. They will, therefore, have to be restrained
by the strong arm of the law, done in the early
colonial history of Virginia. when the house of Bur
gesses passed an act Of the very character indicated
1t found that all the young men imported into the
colony were ente caught by the widows by superior
wiles and stratages without any chance being allowed
the modest ana retiring young maidens; so the eg
lature took tue matter in hand and will have to do so
apou y
