into the mysteries of housekeeping. Last week
ten couples launched out on the sea of matrimo-
ny, and tbs currently reported that several 9TH
ers are preparing to follow the good example, by
getting sails ready for q similar voyage. We
wish them all happy and pleasant passage,
and hope they may keep clear of all breakers
and encounter but few squalls. Cupid has not

been wonderful. He has found many hearts that
were not impervious to his invidious attacks and,
if his culver is not entirely exhausted, he will
make many more conquests. Several other young
men around are beginning to show strong symp-
and we may have to call on Dr. Bagby yet for his
remedy. eaa Ii ~, 80
