courteous Frenchman complied, and in re-

The recent visit of the journalists of the
State to your city will naturally leave a favor
able impression in point OF personal appear
ance, and l need hardly add that editors bear
an excellent reputation in social life. AL
though some prominent men in this profession
are bachelors dixie William H.. Hurlburt aud
WhitelaW Reid), the recent leading editors
have all been married men. Greeley's wife
was a school-teacher, whose acquaintance he
made at a clearinghouse. She afterward
went South as Il Soverness, and they main
tanned a correspondence, but how any woman
could decipher Greeley's hieroglyphics is a
wonder. AT last he went to Richmond and
brought back his bride, who preceded him TO
the grave only a few weeks. Bennett married
a bright girl whose parents kept a thread and
needle-store. Ii is said that their acquainl-
ance was made at a fair held in behalf of a
Roman Catholic Church which Bennett was
requested to notice fayorably. This :. favor
able notice led to mutual notices Of a more
important character, and finally a matrimonial
alliance was the result. 1t was then the day
of small things, and the BENEFITS little
dreamed of the immense wealth which was
before them. Bennett was then glad to go
up to New Rochelle asa Sunday resort and
eat clam chowder at the public table. where.
as Pope says, he could damn the climate
like a lord" Dave Hale's wife was one of
the most remarkable h~ousekeepers on record,
and although he was even moderately Sic
c~essful, she voluntarily opened a large and
fashionable clearinghouse, which was we'll
known as Mrs. Hale's. This was kept up for
many years, and was a popular resort for first
class families. Henry j. Raymond left a
widow and q family. His son has not thus
far displayed any of his fathers genius.
Manton Marble, formerly Of the World, has
. second wife, and lives in a very quiet man.
ner. 1t is surprising how Marble can endure
a life of retirement after so many years of
incessant activity.
Hugh Hastings, of the Commercial, is not
only married, but has children in the same
| happy condition. One would not think this
from his countenance. The late y. l.. Willis,
who, as a literary man, was more successful
in journalism than in book-msking, was mai

WHAT TO TEACH G1RLs.-To darn
stockings and sew on buttons.
To say no, and mean it, or yes, and stick
to it.
To keep house in neat order, with
everything in it's place.
To have nothing to do with intern perat g
and dissolute young men.
Teach them to regard the morals and
not the money of their beaux.
That the more one lives within ones in
come the more one will save.
That tight lacing ought to be prevented
by law as opium smoking is in China.
That the further one gets beyond one 3
income, the nearer one gets to the poor
house.
That reliable young man with good
business qualities is worth dozen loafers
in fine harness.
Teach them every day some item of dry,
hard, practical common sense, and they
will yet find time for idealisms.
That any amount Of tight lacing and
pinching of corns cannot improve form
that the Almighty made in his own image.
Give them. if possible. good substan-
tial education, and as many of the accom-
plishments as you can afford, but never
neglect their home training.

MARRIAGE CUSTOMS IN ENGLAND AND
ScoTLAND.-The superintendent of the
British census for 1871 calls attention to
the peculiar and opposite customs which
prevail IN England and Scotland, with re-
ference to the marriage ceremony. The
Reformation in England occurred ostensi-
bly, within the church, and many ancient
usag es and ideas were adhered to. Among
others was the practice of forming the
marriage relation on Sunday. This arose
from the fact that marriage was regarded
as a sacrament; and as result of this an
Gent doctrine of the Church, which the
English lawyers, including Blackstone, re-
ject, the census of 1871 shows that 80 per
cent. of the marriages in England during
the year 1852, occurred on Sunday. the day
of the resurrection, while on Friday, the
day of the cruci6xion, only 2 per cent. Of
marriages took place.
But the Scotch people, who embraced
Presbyterlanism at the reformation, abanz
doned all Roman customs; and to show
their contempt for them, they make a
point Of marrying on Friday, The census
shows that 1873 per cent. of Scotch mar
riages occur on Friday, while less than one
per cent take place on Sunday.

"Fred, Miss Houghton is to arrive this
evening. Would you mind going down il

myself, and it will seem forlorn enough tt
find only an empty carriage awaiting her. :
A prolonged whistle proceeded from the
depths of the luxurious armchair into
which the young man addressed (prettJ
little Mrs. Vere's bachelor brother) had
esconsed himself.
He was handsome man, of the blonde
type, enjoying few weeks furlough from
his army duties in his sisters house.
The LATEST man in the regiment he was
called, but the bravest as well, with now
and then sudden light in his clear gray
eyes which lent momentary insight into
the hidden strength and meaning of hi.
real nature.
''Miss Houghton ?'' he drawled out
somewhat interrogatively, in response tt
the demand made upon him. "You near
the children's new governess, suppose
demure spinster of forty or whereabouts
or, worse still, young, gushing creature
bereft, in one fell blow, of fortune and
friends. Seriously, Mamie, it's an awful
bore, and considering that my captain

schemes, think, perhaps, it would be as
we'll not to put false ideas in this young e.,
woman's head by sending me to greet
her.'
''Don't 60, Uncle Fred" chimed in the
children, aged respectively six and eight
1--WE don't want any governess."
"Hush, children Don't worry me-
Fred Do go like good fellow! 1 assure
you, from all hear of Miss Houghton, she
is charming medium between your two
absurd comparisons and will probably give
you no second thought. Here comes the
carriage to the door. Now. Fred, don't
miss her."
"No hope of that" he groaned, as he
lifted himself to his six feet stature, and
moved leisurely to the door.
A half-hour later the Eastern train came
putting and snorting into the station
Only few passengers had this point fol-
their destination, He watched them de
scend with calm Indifference, when sud
denly he started. A young lady quietly
but richly dressed, passed him, the light

The Impossible.

The Impossible.
Men cannot draw water from an empty well
Or trace the stories that gossips tell,
Or gather the sounds OF pealing bell,
Man never can stop the pillows roar,
Nor chain the winds till they blow no more,
i Nor drive true love from nnaiden's door.
Men cannot 0'ertake fleeting lie,
Change his wheat to field of rye;
Or call back years that have long gone by.
Man never can bride old father time,
Gain the height of peak he cannot climb.
Or trust the hand that hath done crime.
Man cannot cruel word recall.
Fetter thought, be it great or small,
Or honey extract from drop of gall.
Man never can backward turn the tide,
Or count the stars that are scattered wide,
Or find in fool trusty guide.
Man cannot reap fruit from worthless seed,
Rely for strength on broken reed,
Or gain heart he hath caused to bleed
Man never can hope true peace to win,
Pleasure without and 10y within,
Living thOughtless life of sin.

Newly Married Couples.

It is the happiest and most virtuous
state of society in which the husband and
wife set out together, make their property
together, and with perfect sympathy of
soul graduate their expenses, plans, cal
culations and desires with reference to
their future and common interest. Moth
ing delights man more than to enter the
neat little tenement of the young people
who within perhaps two or three years.
without any resources but their own
knowledge of industry, have joined heart
and hand and engaged to share together
the responsibilities, duties, interests, trials.
and pleasures of life. The Industrious
wife is cheerfully employing her hands in
domestic duties, putting her house in order
or mending her husbands clothes, or pre-
pairing the dinner, while perhaps the little
darling sits prattling on the floor or lies
sleeping in the cradle, and everything
seems prepared to welcome the happiest of
husbands and the best of fathers when he
shall come home from his toll to enjoy the
sweets of his little paradise. This is true
domestic pleasure. Health, contentment,
love, abundance and bright prospects are
all here. But it has become prevalent
sentiment that a man must acquire his
fortune before he marries; that the wife
must have no sympathy or share with him
in the pursuit. of tin which most of the
pleasure truly consists-and the young
married people must set out with as large
and expensive an establishment as Is be-
coming those who have been welded
twenty years. This is very unhappy; it
fills the community with bachelors who
are waiting to make their fortunes, en-
dangering virtue, promoting vice; it de-
stroys the true economy and design of the
domestic institution. and it promotes in
efficiency among females, who are expect
ing to be taken up by fortune and pas
sively sustained without any care or con-
Germ on their part, and thus many wife
becomes, as gentleman once remarked,
not a s'helpmate" but ''helpeat"
