You have seen beautiful girl, beau
tiful in person and spirit, graceful in
form and feature, and of lovely dispo-
sitiun. married to man Of common
mould. Who cannot recall many such
instances? Then rgaip you see strong,
intellectual men--men every way supe-
rior-so grievously msmated. 1t has
often been remarked that if matches
are made in heaven, they must have
got dreadfuIly shaken up and misplaced
on their way down.
Now il is very natural not only that
people should, in the first place, all
want to marry we'll themselves, but
also, 10 the second place. that their own
friends should be particularly we'll mar
ried At the same time, when we take
broad philosophical true view of the
matter, what do We find our conclusion
to be on the subject?
1t is very simple, and it is this /.
Marriage, on the whole, cannot average
above a certain medium quality; in
other words marriage in the general
must be precisely on the level wph the
ordinary character Of the persons OF
whom the community Is made up.
And, as a comprehensive proposition,
the whole problem of marriage is
reduced to this question: Is it better
for such people to marry each other or
remain single :
1t is inevitable that, as marriage is
general, there must be thousands OF
instances in which parents will be
disappointed at the matches which
their children make. Love is myste-
rious, and it leads the feet of boys and
girls in directions which their fathers
ard mothers would fain not have them
90. They will not select the compani-
ons for life which others would select
for them. The most that can be done
to render marriage happier, IS to contri-
butte what one can to the improvement
Of the whole communitv 1t is not in
your power to foresee who may become
your son-in-law or your daughter in
law-perhaps it may be the very last
person on earth you would expect,
Whatever parents do, therefore, for
the physical, intellectual and moral
education of the whole people, will, in
a manner, tend to increase the chances
that their own sons and daughters will
succeed in obtaining partners for life
in the best way suited to their several
dispositions ,--Fdrmer.

FACTS FOR PRACTICAL PEOPLE.


Having become o practical people,
discardfhg old notions and theories, it
now becomes US to look well to the
training of those who are to follow us
il. the life battle that is opening upe q
us with such wonderful promise. They
must be trained directly for the exi>
gencies Of the age and times, and he
who can prepare best both men and
boys in the practical concerns Of life,
fitting them in the shortest time and in
the best manner for successful, useful
men, is the best benefactor. Not more
than one third Of our young men at the
age of twenty one are qualified to meet
with success in the business world, and
it is much to be regretted that practical
education, SO essential to success, has
been so much neglected. The training
of our boys at The common school and
academy has always been too. theoreti-
cal, and not sufficiently practical and
useful. The result is that thousands
of our young men to day are nobodies,
that might have been men of influence;
and many others are engaged ir pur.
suits that they heartily dislike, and in
which they will never excel, simply
because they had not sufficient conf
dence in themselves to make an ex
change There are also middle-aged
men who have followed 80 long in the
same old beaten track Of their ances
tors that their ambition has become
blasted, and it requires the teachings oi
some leading spirit to arouse them from
their lcthargy, and bring out their
talents and energies. Then there are
fathers by the score who show no more
judgment in the management of their
sons than their horses, forgetting that
the boy must sometime be the man, and
that he can only rise to distinction and
be independent by being as common
sense dictates, in the school of prac,
tice, and then permitted to pursue
some avocatiou suited to his taste.

THE STATE FAIR.


The annual exhibition of the Oregon
A Agricultural Association passed off
pleasantly. We deem it hardly worth
while to say much concerning it, as We
are inclined to think, judging from the
crowd, that every body was either there,
or sent somebody in their place and
the reports have gone out, and all un-
derstand what was done. Some cases
of lawlessness, of course, happened, but
not as many as might naturally have
been expected where so large crowd
was assembled. Miss Susan j. AM
thony and Mrs. j. Blakesly Frost were
both there, the former giving the men
particular fits, calling them brutes and
tyrants, and giving the ladies advice as
to the best means of freeing themselves
from the tyrants yoke. The latter
(bless her compassionate heart) was
advocating the cause of the men, and
showing up the effects of women's en-
franchisement All kinds of amuse>
ments were INDUCED in: circuses, pam
Dramas, and an endless variety of minor
entertainments were to be met with. 1t
would hardly be expected that in this,
the close of the nineteenth century
that people would indulge in the sports
of century ago, and enjoy them, yet
such was the case, We noticed one
man with duck IN box, with an ap-
ertare in the lid for the duck to put
his head through, allowing men and
boys TO throw at the ducks head, a dis~
tance Of several PAGES, for two bits a
thow, giving prize of half dollar to
to the one hitting the duck. This, we
suppose, was fun for the boys, but death
to the duck. The fair, as a whole,
however, passed off very we'll The
weather was pleasant, aud everyone
seemed to enjoy it. The exhibition
was hardly up to our expectation, yet
we hope to see it grow better, until our
fairs will compare favorably with those
of the older States.

HELP ONE ANOTHER,


In the busy whirl Of life, all feel
more or less their dependence on each
other; and yet We are prone to be too
suspicious, and watch with too jealous
an eye the movements, words aud ac>
tions of our fellows, not with view to
their reformation, but with desire,
evidenced by actions, if not expressed
in words, to pull them down in the
public estimation, and show to the pubs
lie that they are no better than they
should be. This should not be so. Any
man, however strongly fortified, is
liable, in the whirl Of business, to do
what more careful consideration
would teach him was wrong In the
excitement of debate, all are liable to
use language which sober second
thought w6u d forbid. To hold a per-
son strictly to account for this, and to
make no allowance for weak, errIng
nature, is to put up standard of judg-
ment by which We would shrink from
being judged ourselves. Yet how often
is this done. In the every day inter-
course oflife, how often do we denouuce
people for acts which from our stand
point look wrong, when the persons de-
bounced have acted IN good faith, and
did What they thought right, both for
themselves and others. In our inter
course with the world, then, we should
as far as possible, forbear censure and
ifa brother offend, tell him of his fault
privately, and give him an opportunity
to vindicate himself, or prove that his
course was right and proper This will
be following out the Divine injunction,
and will make lite what the Creator
designed it to be, both pleasure and a
profit.

SLEEP WALKEks.-A gentleman in
Illinois writes the following to the
Scientific american " My observation
has led me to believe that sleep walk
ing is habit of the system. | have
noticed that children who are allowed
to sleep on the floor or lounge in the
evening, and afterwards at some regu>
lar hour are aroused-of course only
partially awakened--and sent to bed,
will in time acquire the habit OF sleep
walking | have no doubt that the
man mentioned in your paper of June
22d, who would get up in the night
and 90 to the cellar for drink of wine
while asleep, had been in the habit of
first going for it, in the night time,
while awake. / presume that few have
failed to notice how soon the mind, by
dreams, will recognize habit of walks
ing at particular time for any pur>
pose. I think that the whole philoso>
ply of sleep. walking has its foundation
in habit, acquired by disturbance at
some regular hour devoted to sleep"

CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTA-.

But few States IN the Union show an
increase in their representation in Con
gress. Illinois, in the last Congress,
had fourteen representatives in the
next she will have sixteen. Iowa had
six in the last, and will have seven in
the next. Kansas had one, and is now
entitled to two Michigan had six, and
will TO the next Congress send seven
representatives. Missouri had nine,
and has now the privilege Of sending
one more. The States which show a
falling off, in representation are Con-
necticut, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisi>
ana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,,
New Hampshire, New York, North

representation in all the other States
remain the same. The whole number

according to the appointments will be

FIR f..

The fire. fend seems to have broken
loose in all It's fury. Chicago, the gar
den city of the West, is in ruins. Loss
too'great to be even estimated. A strip
eight miles in length and two miles
in width has been burned out Of the
best portion OF the city. Fires are also
raging in many other places. Along the
line OF the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railroad much damage is being
done. In Wisconsin fires are raging to
a terrible extent. The town of PesE>
tigo was entirely destroyed the same
night of the Chicago fire The place
numbered about two thousand souls,
one third Of whom is reported to have
perished Reports from different parts
of Wisconsin show that over fifteen
hundred persons have pcrishcd in the
flames in that State alone, The people
Of different portions Of the country are
coming forward with exemplary gener-
osity to the relief Of the suffering, and
the losses will be partially repaired. 1t
will be years, however, before those
cities will recover the shock
