Nj. L.-Your argument is founded
on the selishness of your own heart.
and not On the Scriptures. There
is nothing in the Bible which JUST
fies or permits the qualification of
one $ own wishes at the expense of
others; and yet you want to make
your own fastidious tastes the con-
trolling element in the supply Of the
Gospel to the people, so far as your
scandalously decorated church is
concerned. st. James says Oh, 2-G)
Ger if there come into your assem-
bly,, a man with gold ring, in good
ly apparel, and there come also n
poor man in vile raiment; anil We
have respect unto him that wearcth
the gay clothing, and say unto him.
SIT thou here in a good place; and
say to tho poor, Stand thou here, or
sit thou here under my footstooi;
are We not then partial in yourselves
and are become judgers of evil
thoughts?' A fundamental princi-
pie of Christianity is to forego ones
own wishes for the good Of others;
and he who goes to church simply to
enjoy himself, will miss the Chief
blessing which church going is in.

r. Il Ii. 1t is generally assumed
by geographers and statisticians that
London is the largest and most veal
thy city on the globe. Pekin, in Chi
ma, and Jeddo, in Japan, each in
turn enjoyed the reputation of being
the most populous city in the world
But that distinction Is now conferred
on London.
Becky.-A young lady ''who is be-
trothed to respectable young man"
should NOT be waited upon by other
young men. There would be no i'm
propriety in n married man walking
home with You, occasionally, unless
harm is intended, or his wife is
Mattie.-You poor, delatlcd girl,
there is no such art rs "psychoman
cy or soul charming" by which you
can gam the undying love, and conf
dence of any person instantly" No
such thing ever was.
J. ii. R.-The fact that she had
been "three times engaged in less
than three years." was NOT positive
proof of her heartlessness, but on
ly shows her fickleness. You sho'd
smother your love in the ashes OF
disappointment, and the flame will
perhaps die out.
Dan.--Jf you were corresponding
with the lady on your personal bus
mess affairs, you should have sent
her stamps to prepay postage on her
letters; but if the correspondence was
merely friendly and social one, you
should not have sent any for that pur
pose.
Dexter.--You are right. The Re-
PUBLICAN Is the largest, neatcst and
most interesting paper in the county.
1t has much the widest circulation,
and will be sent to anyone for 81 q
year, six months for 81, three months
for 80 cents.
Susan.-We do not think that elf

S. When q gentleman goes walk
ing with lady at night, he should
OFFER her his arm. She should not
take it until asked to do so.
A. w. B.-A youth who has not
yet completed his education has no
business to think of marriage, nor has
he any right to bind a girl to him by
promises to be fulfilled in the distant
and uncertain future. Leave the la
dy free to love you or rot, as she
may chose, when you shall have &C
quired your profession.
BIT will not do to 'susc both
Mr.. and Esq. at the same time in an
address" To write, "Mr. Joe Hold,
ESQ.," would be . gross blunder.
Rosa.--The rost way to get rid of
freck es on the face IS to live pure
life, physically and morally, and pro-
tect the face from wind and sun. In
this way freckles can be outgrown,
and they will gradually disappear.
N.--You should ask your GRANDPA
theirs pardon for your rudeness to
him. He had a right to reprove you
for your profanity in his presence.
Sarah.-You are sensible girl. 1t
would certainly be advisable for
your ardent lover to wait until he is
of age before taking unto himself a
wife. You should be firm on that

dy's parents and state your case to
them just as you have stated it to us
and ask them if YOU may correspond
with their daughter after you have
moved. That would be thefrank and
manly thing to do, and would doubt
