CJurtship in Greenla nd.

There is something exceedingly
melancholy in the accounts which
are given of the custom Of c)urtship

willingness and less solicitude than

with the state Of his heart. They
apply to the parents Of the girl, and
if the parents are thus far agreed,
the next proceeding is to appoint tao
female negotiators, whose duty it i
to troach the subject to the Young
lady. This is a matter Of great tact
and delicacy.
The lady ambassadors do not shock
the young lady to whom they ar"
sent by any sudden or abrupt ayowai
Of the awful subject Of this mission.
Instead of doing this, they launch
I out in praises Of the gentleman who
seeks her hand. They speak Of the
,plendor Of his house, the >umptUous
ness Of his furniture. Of hi, courage
and skiIl in catching seals, and other
accomplishments. Tie lady, pre-
tending to be aHrohted even at these
remote hints runs away, tearing the
ringlets of her hair as she retres,
while the ambl.adre>ses, having got

and curses when its dry; that viii
never see silver lining 10 a cloud
from his cradle to his grave. We

ever stuck his nose into. VI -
feast or famine, and when the feast
come. there's too much Cf II; too
