Married by Degrees.

Men aud women, aud especially young peo-
pie do not know that it takes years to marry
two hearts, even Of the most loy-
ing and well.sorted But nature allows no
sudden changes. We slope very gradually
from the cradle to the summit Of life. Mar
riage is gradual, fraction Of US at time.
A happy wedock is loug falling in love. |
know young persons think love only belongs

cheeks. So it does for its beginning, just as
Mt. Washington begins at Boston Bay. But
the golden marriage is a part Of love which
the bridal day knows nothing Of Youth is
the tassel aud silken flower Of love age IS
he full corn, ripe and solid in the ear.
Beautiful is the morning Of love, with its
prophetic crimson, violet, purple and gold ;
with its hopes of days that are to come.
Beautiful also the evening Of love, with its
glad remembrances, and its rainbow side
turned toward heaven as well as earth.
Young people marry their opposites in tem-
per and general character, and such mar
riage is commonly a good match. They do
it instinctively. The young man does not
say, MY black eyes require to be wed
with blue, and my overyehemence requires
to be little modified with somewhat Of
dullness and reserve When these oppo-
sites come together to be wed, they do not
know it, but each thinks the other just like
himself. Ia their long journey these young
opposi,es will fall out by the way a great
many times, and both get away from the road 4;
but each will charm the other back again,

Greek BrigaBdage.

Seemingly incredible stories are told by the
correspondent Of German paper Of the au-
dacity aud success of the Greek brigands.
The writer says that Athens is now almost
bIockaded by them No one dares to 90
Thousand PAGES out of the town without an
escort, aud even then the undertaking is a
dangerous one, for the brigands are concealed
behind rocks and 10 bushes, so that the whole
Of the escort might be sho, down before their
hiding places could be discovered. The chief
of these brgands is a man named Spanos,
who has been notorious for his daring deeds
during the last thirty years. Half the Greek
army has been in pursuit of him for months,
but he aud his band which consist Of only
seven men, are still close to Athens, and it is
even rumored that he has on several occasions
entered the city with the object of capturing
some high parsonage whom he would after
ward lIberate only on the condition Of his
being given large ransom and free par.
don. The shepherds aud the peasants are
obliged, for their own security, to warn the
brlgands Of the approach of the troops. The
country is suffering severely in its industry
on account Of those rascals, as no mans prop
erty in the rural districts is safe from their
depredations.

Tobacco What is to be Done About It!

Is the common use of tobacco in its various
forms useful or injurious2 We know there
is difference of opinion about it, Just as there
is about the common use otintoxicating drinks,
and opium, and that many who repudiate the
liquor and the drug as highly deleterious, still
cleave to the use of the weed. But we appre-
hend that most of this class do so from habit
formed in thoughtess hour, a habit
which they would gladly break, if the break
ing of it did not cost so high in self.denial,- -
kind Of currency about as scarce now .a-days
as silver change,
1t is pretty good test of practice about
which we have any doubt, to ask ourselves
whether we would like to have our children
form that habit2 Should we like to have
our boys,-concerniu the girls there is as
yet, fortunately, but one opinion should We
like to have boys learn to smoke, first, then to
chew, if not to snuff Should we think it a
healthy, cleanly habit, promotive Of physical
mental and moral vigor We do not believe
there is one in a thousand, of the better class
of tobacco-users in New England who would
by words-of course they do in deeds-eneour-
age their children in forming the habit No
they sincerely regret to sec the first cigar in
their boys mouth. They feel worse yet at
sight of the first quid. They don't believe it
is necessary to health Of body or strength
of mind, or purity Of person or taste. They
believe it is not only useless but bad hab-
it and though they themselves are too strong
ly in its grasp togive it up, they would heart
ily rejoice if their children, instead Of chewing
would eschew it forever
For ourselves, we believe that the cost and
tilthiness of the weed are among its least
evils. We have no doubt it may have me
dicinal virtues, like other poisons. In some
diseased conditions of the human system il
may possibly give transient relief. But fol
person in health so to violate his natura
instincts and outrage his pure tastes, as tC
form the habit Of using it in the ordinary
way, we fully believe to be a wicked abuse o
the temple Of the human body, which abuse
far oftener than we know, leaks through thu
saturated body and stains the soul
Believing this, it pains us, especially, tC
see minister, teacher of youth, in common
school, or Sunday school, or any one profess
ing to teach morality, or religion, or anything
else worthy to be taught, sucking tobacco
smoke through cigar or pipe, or rolling ;
auid as a sweet morsel under his tongue. L
is shame that habit so gross and injurious
should be recommended in this way to tn,
youth of our land, by the habits of those Il
whom they look up with confidence, and lik
whom they aspire to be.
But what can we do about it Just wha
we do about everything else we believe to b.

The lispng lips is life and death.

With thunder, like some organs strain

From poisonous honey cups distilled.
For gall indeed arc words, those words
To Us unhtly spoken
Those words which In m evil hour
Our best resolves have broken
Thosc honoycd words that easy 1ow
And steal from us our guardian fears
Those words that only work our woe
And coldy mock at all our tears.

When grief hath weighed, when hope hath fed

Messengers Of peace indeed are words

Where stranded hnrks are broken
Those words that make us bravo and true,
And stay us up when like 10 tall

Russian AggresslOns.

This acquisition includes also a road to the
southwestern extremity Of China, which for
a long time has been the desire Of all COM

snau bills which vastly strengthens the Rus.
