Matrimonial Advice.


Marry in your own religion.
Never both be angry at once.
Never taunt with a past mistake.
Never allow a request to be repeat.
ed.
Let self-abnegation be the habit Of
both.
Let a kiss be the prelude of a rebuke.
'I forgot is never an acceptable
excuse. j.
Marry into a family you have long
known.
A good wife is the greatest earthly
blessing. :
If YOU must criticise, let it be done
lovingly. ,
Make a marriage q matter of moral
Judgment.
Never make q remark at the expense
of the other.
Never talk at one another, either
alone or in company.
Give your warmest ~sympathies fol-
each others trials. 3
If one is angry, let the other part
the lips only for a kiss.
Neglect the whole world besides
rather than One another.
Never speak loud to one another un.
less the house is on fire.
Let each strive to yield oftenest to
the wishes of the other.
The veriest felicity is in the mutual
cultivation of usefulness.
Always leave home with loving
words, for they may be the last.
Marry into different blood aud tenn
permanent from your own.
Never deceive, for the heart once
misled can never trust wholly again.
1t is the mother who molds the char
acter and fixes the destiny OF the
child.
Let your mutual accommodations
be spontaneous, wbole-souled, and
free us air.
Never find fault unless it is perfectly
certain hat Il fault has been commit
ted.
Do not herald the sacrifices you
make to each others tastes, habits, or
preferences.
A hesitating or grum yielding TO the
wishes of others always CRATES upon a
loving heart.
Consult one another in all that
comes within the experience, observa-
tions, or sphere of the other.
They who marry for physical char
acteristics or external considerations
will fail of happiness. =
Never reflect on a past action which
was done with a good motive, and
with the best iudg ment at the time.
They who marry for ira it's of mind
ard heart will seldom fail of perennial
springs of domestic enjoyment.
They are tie safest who marry from
the standpoint of sentiment rather
than of feeling, passion, or mere love.
The beautiful in heart is u million
times of more avail, rs securing do
mestlc happiness, than the beautiful
in person

PROMINENT German Socialists.

IIOlulucuO UcI lubu DUCIdilStSs
A Berlin correspondent, writing to
TIE Nev York Sun of the nine social
lists who were recently acquitted of
the charge of conspiracy against the
German government, says: The de-
PENDANTS were August Bebel and T.
H.. w. Dietz, members from Hamburg;
Baron George Won Vollmer, member
from Munich; Karl Frohme, member
from Altoona; Ignatz Auer, member
from Glauchan; Louis Viereck, men,
Der from the suburban district of
Leipzig, and Heinzel Ulrich, and
Mueller, local leaders from Kiel, Often
bach, and Darmstadt.
The most conspicuous among the
defendants is August Bebel, 45 years
of age, a turner by trade, the recognize
ed leader of the socialistic party.
Since 1867 he has represented his par
ty in the reichstag, feared by the ad-
herents of the government, one of the
best of orators, whose ringing voice
always attracts the attention of the
house. He has something to say, and
he knows how to say it, although h
was taught in the common publ
schools only, and at 13 years of age
worked at his trade. But he worked
hard to complete his education, by
himself, and succeeded well. His
books-"Unsere Zieie" (Our Aims),
and ''Die Frau und der Sozialismus''
(Woman and Socialism)-in which he
has laid down his principles, are well
written, and have a large sale. He is
successful as a business man, a skill
full workman at his trade, and from
very small begin nings has built up
the firm doing business as Issleib &
Bebel, in Leipzig, from which he was
compelled to withdraw because ne
was expelled from Leipzig under the
state of seige. He has been in prison
for political offenses many times; but
even his political adversaries admit
that his personal character deserves
esteem, and when, after being kept
away from his home and family by the
expulsion for months, having made
arrangements to spend Pentecost with
his wife and daughter, of Dresden, a
spiteful Judge had him arrested on the
street in the presence of his only child
on a trumped up charge, and locked
up during the holidays, cry of indig-
nation, in which even many friends
of the government joined, arose from
all over Germany.
Baron George Won Vollmer, a tall
handsome man walking on crutches,
both of his legs having been crippled
in the French war, is 80 years of age,
an offspring of the old Bavarian nobili-
ty, a man of great talents and great
ambition, whose secret longing is to
replace Bebel and Liebnecht in the
leadership of the party. Of untiring
activity, much learning. and winning
manners, he is inferior to Bebel in
political judgment and sound COM
mon sense, in impartlality and readi.
ness for sclf-sacrifice. His maiden
speech in parliament against the to-
bacco monopoly in 1881 created a
deeper sensation than any other orator
had produced for years. He nurses
relations with the Russian nihilists,
and the French. Italian, and other
revolutionists of Europe.

sALr-wArER PLANTATIONS.
The Bro Whose Bl~vaisc Ne all
Say Oy-yes-ter.

Mrs. Clarke writing TO Newbern Joar-
nal Of the new la1 TO investigate the
OF Eastern Carolina. says
We owe its passage TO the exertlons
OF our energetic fish commissioner. \ o..
Worth. ESQ. II will be remembered By
these who read his last report that MIR.
Worth suggested that the Iegis lature
should pass q bill allowing our resident
citizens TO enter all bottoms not covered
by natural oyster rocks, as vacant lands
are now entered. provided that the Wa
tiers so entered shall be worked in the
cultivation OF the oyster. According TO
a rough estimate ley Lieut.. Winslow,
| whose address upon Oyster Culture ae-
| companies Mr.. Worth's report. North
Carolina owns six hundred thousand
acres of oyster bottom, OF which only
three thousand acres are under cuitlva-
ton. From this three thousand acres
the annual profit. according to MI.
Worth, is 800, 900 which is an annual
income per acre of 900. By reference
tc the paper road before the State Ex-
| position by Prof. Brooks OF Sohn Hop
kins University, il appears that Rhode
Island has 962 acres imperfectly Guilt
uated in oysters and her annual sales
from her oyster beds is sS0.500. an an
nual product per acre OF more than 500.
These figures show that there is lying
at our doors a mine of wealth, more
valuable than lie in the bosoms OF our
western mountains. But the condition
of our reaping is the labor OF sowing.
The resolution which passed yesterday
proposes to prepare for this sowing II
instructs the department of Agriculture
to appropriate $4,000 to having a survey
made of the oyster bottoms OF the State,
and Governor Scales, not as Chairman
| of the Board, but as Governor OF the
State, to apply to the National Govern
ment for aid in making this survey by
detailing a competent person to take
charge oft. and furnishing the proper
boats and instruments for carrying in on.
A report of it is ordered to be made
to the next Legislature, so that the oys-
ter bottoms may be placed on the same
footing as the public lands.
Lieutenant Winslow, in his paper
shows that wherever the natural oyster
beds have not been cultivated they have
gradually disappeared and are not re-
newed, and that they always do run GU
when they always do run out when they
are common property and the industry
controlled and managed by the State
and can only be kept up when they are
private property.
