Marriage md Death.

Why is it that the marriage announce
ments are immediately followed by the
obituary notices in our papersf Does
death follow SO closely on the footsteps
of marriages. Is grief the page that
carries the train of happiness Does
the tomb open wide its dark and pom
derous Jaws beside the nuptial conch
Ills the plan of life. The gleeful songs
of light and merry hearts to-day, to-
morrow will turn to funeral chants, and
sobbing and lamentation be heard IN
stead of glad pealing laughter we
read to-day of our friends marriage
and wish them Joy. Tomorrow we see
their deaths recorded, and say peace to
their ashes" Our merriest songs are
timed by the footballs of death, and the
"silver chord" is as fragile as spiders
thread, and the golden bow" is more
brittle than glass.

Woman i'm the Bible.

The Bible is the book OF woman. IL
is the only book which has come down
from the misty ages of antiquity that
presents us WIN WOMAN Us tho equal
and meet for man. From Eve, the
mother of all living, to Mary, the
mother of Jesus, woman always Occu-
pies conspicuous place III the granu
drama of the worlds history. Here she
is seen rs wife and mother, filling her
mission with shrinking modesty ana
gentle firmness. Miriam and Deborah,
Rebecca and Ruth, Sarah and Esther,
shine forth in characters at once or'gi-
nal, unique, consistent and feminine.
On q still brighter canvas, and In still
brighter colors, are drawn the eharac-
tiers of the Matthias, Marys and LydiaS OF
the New Testament. Here they are, as
they Ought to be, and here they will re-
main forever. Not forward, not depart
ing from her sphere, not immodest, not
masculine. They shine, not like the
sun. but with 4 radiance rs mild and
gentle as the light of the evening star

An Order af the Garter.

A few days since a yonns friend OF
ours was walking mp Main street; few
yards ahead of him was very line
looking young lady, behind whom he
had walked for some distance. As he
neared the corner of Tenth street he
noticed something drop from beneath
the young lady's skirt. He FASTENED to
pick ii up, and was about to hand it to
her, when he discovered that it was a
garter, with very handsome buckle.
What WAS he to dot He could not
hand it to her, nor could he send it to
hei, for he had never seen her before.
At last an idea struck him; so fastening
forward, he passed the young lady, and
after gettinga short distance ahead of
her. dropped the garter. She saw it,
and understanding the young man,
picked it up, dropping him at the same
time very graceful and modest bow.
Very nicely done, that. The young

Az INDIAN CURIosITY.-Among the
Oriental curiosities in the Loan Exhibl-
ton at Southampton, England, isan Of
fetal dagger of Hindoo Bard, the
property ofMr. Tennyson. The follow
ing curious statement has been affixed
to it by the poet: Gin Guzaret are a
number of petty chiefs called Thakoors,
whose condition somewhat resembles
that of the old Highland chiettains OF
Scotland, or did so a few years ago.
Each chieftain had his family bard, who
was also the family historian. These
bards were called Bhats, Bharotes,
Bharnts or Charms. No treaty or mar
rage settlement was complete unless
countersigned by the bards of the re-
spectiye families, whose signature was
a rude representation of the kutha, or
dagger, worn by them. These daggers
were often heirlooms, and are by no
means easy to get. This one belonged
to the family of Bhat or Charun,. OF
yeerangarum, a town about forty miles
from Ahmedabad, in Guzerat, Presi-
dency of Bombay"
