MATRIMONIAL AGENCIES IN BER-
L1N.-Berlin is fast outgrowing slow
matrimonial machinery. The diplo-
macy of the mother and the harmless
arts of the daughter are giving way
to the more simple and more expedi-
tious system of matrimonial agencies.
An English reader would have some
trouble in conceiving the progress
made within year Or two by. that
extraordinary business, and not even
German can forecast its future pos
sibilities. 1t is not enough that
there ere women who, in seductive
advertisements, make known their
benevolent purposes, and who, in
modest apartments, and in private
way, bring the anxious together
Not even the slender veil of that de
gree Of prudishness is now thrown
over the traffic. There are now,
great offices, with their managers,
their matrons, their ledgers and hier-
archy Of clerks, and which offer ap-
plicants Of either sex. their choice
from two or three hundred candi-
dates. " ~.
They issue their catalogues, like
the old book shops, and omit no i'm
portant details. Thus the candi-
dates will be classified something
like this: "Two hundred, and fifty
maidens from the bourgeoisie, It's
widows Of the same class, SO maid
ems and widows from the aristocracy,,
with fortunes etc, )" and Oh the other
side, 300 gentlemen, merchant, and
that class, 100 Government officials,
country land owners, ETC." And re-
Gently the business has risen to the
dignity Of an organ Of its own. The
Matrimonial Journal, issued weekly,
contains the advertisements of these
agencies as we'll as Of candidates
themselves, notices Of books, and
miscellaneous matter well calculated
to set forth the beauties Of married
life and to encourage the wavering.

Mary Anne, you pretty girl,
Intent Oh silky labor,
OF Scamstresses the pink and pearl,
Excuse a peeping neighbor.
Those eyes, forever Cropping, give
| The long brown lastes rarely;
| But violcts in the shadows live
For once unyeil them fairly. a."
Hast thou not lent that flounce enough
Of looks so long and earnest? =.
LO! here's more ''penetrable stutf.;'
To which thou never turnest.
7e graceful fingers, deity sped!
How slender and how uimblc!
Oh Knight l wind their skcins of thread
Or but pick up their thimble. 10
How blest the youth whom love shall
bring,
And happy stars embolden,
To change the dome into a ring,
The silver into golden! ,s
Who'll steal some morning to her side,
To take her fingers measure,
While Mary Anne pretends to chide,
And bushes deep with pleasure!
Who'll watch her sew her wedding
gown
Well conscious that it is hers;
Who'll CLEAN tress without a froWn,
With those so ready scissors.
Who'll taste these ripenings o f the
South,
The fragrant and delicious
Don't put the pins into your mouth, 81
Oh. Mary Anne, my precious!
I almost wish it were my trust
To teach how shocking that is;
l wish had not, as must,
10 quit this tempting lattice.
Sure aim takes Cupid, tluttering foe,
Across a street so narrow!
A thread of silk to string his bow,
A needle for his arrow!

that the bali had not entered the

the scalp, running over the bone and

The physician pronounced it only
a flesh wound, and was of the opin-

dangerous character. After his
wound was dressed, Mr.. Ten Brock
was conveyed to his home in a car
rage. Before being taken away he
became again conscious, and con-
versed with his friends. He did not
seem to, fear any serious results from
his wound, andronly. complained of
extreme weakness. Mr.. Ten Brock

Whitaker was released ON a bail of
