Mrs. Stowe put this into the mouth of one
of the characters Of her story, MY wife
and l." l grant that the rare, real mar
rage, that occurs one time i'll Il hundred,
is the true ideal state for man and woman
but it doesn't follow that all and every
thing that brings man and woman together
in marriage is blessed. and take my stand
on st, Pauls doctrine that there are both
men and women called to some higher state;
now it seems to me that the number of these
increase with the advancement OF society.
Marriage requires SO close an intimacy that
there must be perfect agreement and sym
pathy; the lower down in the scale Of being
one is. the fewer distinctive points there are
of difference or agreement. 1t is easier for
John and Patrick, and Bridget and Katy to
find comfortable sympathy and agreement
than it is for those far up in the scale of life
whose education has developed thousand
individual tastes and peculiarities.

HARPER HOUSE CONTRACTS.

Mr Harper hiss concluded to conduct his
new hotel. In the beginning and during the
erection Of the building be always followed
a tavori,e principle OF his, and one worthy
OF emulation by al our citizens, namely. to
employ home labor and to use home pro-
ductions. And now that the building is
com pletej, he has followed the same princi-
pie in furnishing the hotel. lie tells US
tina, he has found that the establishments of
this city and Davenport, can furnish him
better and cheaper articles of furniture and
necessaries, than the establishments of Chi
csgo and other eastern cities, and has &C
cordingly given his contracts to home
parties. The building ia TO be furnished
complete by the middle of February, and
the grand opening viii occur on Washing
toms birthday. Here is the list Of contracts
Mr.. Gould, OF Davenport, has the contract
for furnishing the furniture for four paror
sets, Two ladies' and two gents, and 20
chamber sets, consisting of marble top
dressing bureaus and marble top wash
stands, and the bedsteads. Also the chairs
for the entire house, and sofas and marble
top centre tables for the parlor chambers.
Also the French plate mirrors for the par
lors, ak in mum Der, size 46x52 inches.
Mr. Aiken, of this city, has contract for
furnishing the table linen, napkins, towels,
sheets, quilts, comforts, etc in short, he has
contracted to furnish the linen for the
whole house, and we have no doubt but that
he will give entire satisfaction.
at present Mr.. Harper is..negotiating with
Messrs. HOLSTER & Phelps. of Chicago, for
5000 yards of carpeting, which will be suffi
cient for the entire house.
He is also negotiating for 100 curled hair
mattresses, and patent spring bottom beds
The above will amount to some thousands
of dollars, and the whole is to bs in the
house By the middle of February. Of the
enterprise of Mr.. Harper, in giving this city
such magnificent hotel, we need make nc
comment, but he certainly deserves the en-
couragement and patronage of our citizens
when the hotel fairly is in operation.
