higher and aristocratic classes, but extends as
well to the lowest persaa;ry. There is the came

marriage is TO be arranged, as takes place in the
upper circles. Marriages Of the " commercial
sort are, howyer, not so general among the pea
sants as among their socisl betters Tire parties
immediately concerned are more frequently con-
suited as to their inclinltions The first move

in treaty mutually satisfactory. Once in
