Caesars Ideal on Marriage.

The young wife died; but when
Cesar again thought of marriage the
political skies had changed. He had
held firm to the CHINA marriage. and
he now conciliated the Sylla faction by
marrying Pompeia. the granddaughter
OF Sylla, and kinswoman Of Sylla's
pet. Pompey the Great. then in tho
zenith Of his popularity. 1t seems to
have been from the beginning mar
riage Of politics, and not Of affection.
Pompeia was not beloved. And the
political skies went on changing. The
star of Sylla sank beneath the horizon,
and the star Of Cesar mounted higher
and higher. When all advantage that
could spring from wedding Pompeia
had been reaped. Cesars thoughts
turned elsewhere. The plots of Sylla
against C@sar's Cornelia must seal the
dead lips of Sylla against reproach.
should Cesar reppdiate Pompeia. But
1t was not the dead that Caesar re-
garded. 1t behooved him only to have
specious case to present to the
living.
Cesar made short work Of his part
In the transaction. He divorced POM
peia. 1t is not certain that Pompeia
knew of. Clodius's plan. though 1t Is
possible. 1t is not certain or probable
that Clodius. rs bad as he was, meant
anything more than an impious and
impudent frolic. 1t is not impossible
or altogether improbable that Cesar,
Aurelia aud Clodius were in collision
against Pompeia. 1t Is certain that.
when Cesar was called upon to testify
at the trial OF Clodius, he declared
that he knew nothing Of what was
alleged against him! 1t is certain that,
when Clodius afterwards became
