IRON IN THE BLOoD.-When the blood is well
supplied with its iron element, we feel vigorous
and full of animation. 1t Is an insHfficiency of
TINS vital element that makes us feel weak and
low spirited; in such cases, the Peruvian Syrup
"a protoxide of irOn) can supply this deficiency
and Its use will invigoraue us wonderfully. 6

DELAWARE LAws.-Some very obnoxious
laws are upon the statute books of our neigh
boring State of Delaware, which call forth the
righteous indignation Of some of her citizens.
That of the "Whipping Post" is disgrace to
the name Of the State, and now we learn,
through a correspondent of the Wilmington
Tribune, that another very obnoxious act is
still in force there requiring a man, upon his
wedding day, to give bond in the sum of 5000
for the support of his wife. The correspondent
says:
"There may have been reason once-what
we cannot conceive-for placing a penalty on
marriage, but surely no such reason exists now.
If marrying is a sin against God or the Com
monwealth if it brings blight on households,
and stagnation on business, and disaster on
whole communities, as the liquor traffic does,
then there is cause for a marriage license law.
If husbands are generally improvident, and
our poor houses are crowded with, or likely to
be stormed with their dependent wives, then
there is reason that a noble-souled bridegroom
should get some friend 10 go his security in the
sum of two hundred dollars to support his blush
ing bride. But why not let us have law en-
acted that for each child born, the parents shall
give bond and security not to allow them to 90
to the Aims house likewise?
"Before our young men and women can hon
or and love our State as they ought to be en-
couraged to do, this oppressive, dishonorable
and dishonoring law should be blotted from
her statute books. As it stands it fosters con-
tempt, and noble spirits evade it wherever they
can do so without great disappointment to
large circle of friends. 1t may, think, be fair
ly estimated that ive-sixths, (some say nine
tenths) of the couples getting married from this
end of the State go to other States to have the
marriage rites celebrated. For less than the
license costs they can make trip to where
men are free, and where, on the proudest occa-
sion of mans life he is not made to feel mean
by giving security that he is not mean. Will
not our Legislature give us relief from this
oppressive and unreasonab BILE law on Marriage?"
