MARRIAGE IN New YoRK.-The Bureau of
Vital Statistics, OF New York, has published
a report of the births. marriages and deaths
in that city and Brooklyn during the year
1867. The report shows that the modern
tendency to celbacy is not diminishing under
the influence of the habits and extravagnnces
of the times. There were in New York
I ,5I3 marriages during the year, or little
more than two per cent. of the population
entered the state of matrmony. In Brooklyn
there were but $40 marriages, or less than
one per cent. 1t is evidently much easier for
the very poor to marry than for those in the
enjoyment of moderate incomes. Of the
whole number married in New York, there
were 5,345 foreign males, and 1913 foreign
females. This proves, what has repeatedly
been affirmed, that the progress of population
in the East is chiefly due to emigration from
the Old World and the births of foreign pa
rents OF the whole number married. 2, 1877
males and I,796 females were married for the
second time, showing that marriage is not so
bad condition as the grumblers, cynics and
extravagant young men would have the world
believe. OF those married in New York
l,332-70 males and 1862 females-were
under twenty years of age 5 5,299 from twen-
ty to twenty-five, and 4, 1873 from twenty-five
to thirty years 1873 males and 80 females
over fifty years of age were brave enough to
enter upon marriage contracts. Four of this
number were from seventy to seventy-five
years old, and one of them, a colored man,
who had been twice married already, was
aged 81 years. This would prove that the
most marriageable period is from twenty to
twenty-five, and that age offers but few i'm
| pediments to such as are really in earnest-
Even with such discouraging statistics, there
is M probability that the institution Of mat
rimony will soon be among the things of the
past.

Caution to the Unfortunate.

Beware of the San Francisco quacks and pre-
tenders who, with bogus sworn-to certificates dupe
the unwary. Some of the self-styled doctors,
whose to be found in the daily and
weekly newspapers of San Francisco and other
places, are trades men and became too lazy to work
at their trades Some are tinsmths, shoemakers,
newspaper carriers, intelligence office keepers, &c.
Look over the San Francisco directory and you
will not find their Medical Institutions in it. Look
at the Directory for 1862 and 1863 The only way
to avoid imposition is to make inquiry-it will cost
you nothing, and may save you many regrets; for,
advertising physicians in eight out of ten
are bogus, there is L safety in trusting any of
them until you know who and what they are. DR..
Gibbon does not deceive people by exhibiting bogus
titles, certificates, pretended patients letters. &c.
DR.. Gibbon will satisfy persons who may call at
his office of his ability to treat diseases that he
pronoses to cure.

aud one great-grsndchild gave peculiar JOY to the
golden circle. The gift table was richly laden with
appropriate tokens OF affection. The dining room at
one end or which was suspended the stars and
Stripes, with the words .Grant and Colfax," was
for part OF the evening the centre OF attraction. AT
the first cable sat goodly number OF venerable men
and women whose united ages amounted to 1900.
