Advice to the Married.

Zehokkc, in one Of his tales, gives
the following excellent advice:
"In the first solitary hour after the
ceremony, take the bridegroom and
demand O solemn VOW Of him und give
u vow in return. Promise each other,
sacrcdly, never, not even IN jest, to
wrangle with each othcr-nevcr to
handy words or 10 indulge in tho
least ill-humor. Ecver-I SOY never! !!
Wranglins in jest, aud putting OH an
air Of ill.humor merely to tease, be-
comes earnest In practice. Mark that
Next, promise euch other sincerely
and solemnly, never to keep . secret
/ from each other, under whatever ex-
cuse It, might DC. You must coutinu-
ally, and every moment, sec clearly In
10 each others bosom. Even when
one Of you has committed fault, whit
not al instant, but confess II. And rs
you keep nothing from each other. so,
on the contrary, preserve the priyacies
of your house, marriage state, and
heart from father, mother, sister, broth
cr, aunt, and all the world. You two,
with Gods help, build your own quiet
world. Every third or fourth ope you
draw into it with you will form party
and stand between you two. That
should never be. Promise this to each
other. Remember the VOW ut each
temptations. You will find your ac-
count in it. Your souls will grow, "a
it were, to each other, and at last will
become Us one. All, If many pair
had, on their marriage day. known
this secret, how many marriage were
happier than. alas, they are!

The Telegraph Experiment.

The Postmaster 3sneinl has commu-
nicatcd report bh the union Of the
telegraph with th9tpostal service. The
principal portion i6f the document is n
letter from G.. G%.lIubbard, Esq, Of
Boston, who has made this subject n
special study forfseveral years. He
hus thoroughly investigated the telc.
graph service Of the continent Of
Europe under governmental control,
and also furnished the facts lately re-
ported to tho British Government on
the necessity nnd1practicabiIty Of as
suming all the business Of telegraph
Ing aud 'bringingait nll under the su-
pervision Of the Postmaster General.
All the facts show; contrary to the
argument of tile President Of the West

The Coming Man In the Senate.
From the New York Sun.

1t is encouraging to learn that man
is about to appear III the upper House
Of Congress, who. in case Of Il, scrim-
mage in that body, will be able to take
the obstrcperous in hand, and compel
them to behave themselves. This per.
son is Mr.. Pratt, the new senator from
Indiana. The nature Of his possible
services may be conceived from the nc.
count given III the New Albany Conn.,
merciat Of his success in restoring
quiet at the national convention in
Chicago, by which Mr.. Lincoln was
nominated for tho presidency. Accor.
ding to the narrative Of that journal. =
great uproar had yet in among the
members Of the convention, and "the
presiding. officer and his deputies sat
helpless and hopeless IN their seats,
gazing dcspairingly OH tho wild crowd
below them. Some ono bethought him
Of mau who Immediately brought
order out OF confusion. lie WAS q

and leather lunged. Ho strodo across
the platform, suggesting Anak and lis
giant sons. His voice was like the
snort of q locomotive behind time, and
it rang out clear and loud over all the
din, compelling attention and silence
by tho suggestion that the owner of
that voice meant to DO heard, and that
he was after all only whispering. 30
easy was the effort with which he
trumpctcd that Babel into attention,
that It was evident II that man should
become really excited and speak right
out with tho full force OF his monster
lungs, something would crack. It
would have hocn awful to havo that
wigwanl ly 10 pieces and its acres Of
roof como down OH the acres Of men
beneath it," -... -. .-.. ..-.
We presume that the more announce.
ment that y fellow Ia coming to the
Senate with limbs like Anak and .
voice like the snort. Of q locomotive
behind time, will suffice to. reduce tho
disordorly Senators tO. quiet. We trust
also that 1t may 80 Ovcruwe Salisbury
aud Yates, and the others who somc-
times get drunk, that Her will keep
sober all the rest of their lives. II
such be the effect OF biz presence, we
hope that Mr.. Pratt may remain in tho

1 Tcn,urrancc Revival.

The >nccrsS Of the Reform Club in
Covin.tum. the membership of which
has increased. since the first of January,
from three individuals to four hundred
composed mainly of reformed drunk
ards. or men accustomed to take their
regular tipplc, is an incident which
the advocates Of temperance by legal
compulsiom can protitably study.
Ii was volunteer effort, the work OF
earnest and active spirits, that made
the temperance reform what ii once
was in this country. The progress Of
that reform WAS one Of the astonishing
events of the day; and It's advance was
not checked till the temperance cause
was dragged into politicsan, the COM
munity divided between those who in-
sisted upon the right to manufacture
and sell liquors nnd those who pro-
posed to cxtinSuiSh it hy process OF
law.
The fact is that it was m attempt to
make crime OF Il business ihat&how-
eyer morally offensive, could not be
stigmatzcd in that way though Lcgis-
lalnrs were to pronounce it such Il
thousand times. TO distill spirits,
brew malt liquors. cultivate the grape
ror conversion into wine, and TO sell
and deal in the products Of these IN
duslrirs is as Legitimate a business m
TO plant tobacco and transform it into
cigars, plug aud iinc.cut, md sell them
over the counter. The people rs Il
whole will never tolerate laws sup
pressing either industry or punishing
tralRc in them rs Il criminal oflcnsc.
ANY such attempts will be net by o
combination Of capital, interest and
prejudice that will prove Irresistible.
at least till there is Il higher moral ed
ucation among the masses than now
exists.
We have passed through the various
phases OF temperance reform in this
country, mud our opinion is that It's
SUCCESS will depend upon the same in-
ilucnces and measures that gave the
Washingtonian movements Il marvellous
triumph wherever it went. The tcm-
perance revival in Covington, begun
bv three men who resolved to reform,
and who used their own example TO
influence others, is all assurance that
the WashinStoninn policy may be rs
effectively employed rs in its first de-
velopment. 1t is easy to persuade
men; it is impossible to drive thcln.--
