One of the three social evils of this age is' admitted to be the reluctance of oar young men to early marriages. They won't marry now, we are told, as they used to, on (300 a year. Depend upon it, jp many cates it is not the odd hun dred or two that is wauting—it’s the attraction. We have lost that joyous and familiar intercourse between neigh bors' families, where young people’s in dividualities bad space and opportunity to develope themselves, and heart met heart. Our modish Cupid has over strung his bow—his arrow don’t hit home. Young ladies bide away the key to their hearts s<^ carefully that nobody thinks it worth looking for. Who is to choose the ‘'one” out of the bevy of proper behaved young damsels like a row of hollyhocks, differing only in height and shape and color? They all look alike, and walk and dress alike; and for anything that appears to the contrary, think and feel alike. Why ( such a choice is an act of deliberate intention, matrimony prepense; very few young men dare to venture upon it. No wonder they calculate the butcher's and the baker's bill before they take such a plunge as that. ■ Don’t think I talk like a cynical old bird not to be caught with chaff. I talk as the exponent of what my own feel ings would be if I vfere young, and open as I once was to the conviction of bright eyes, my nephew, Jack Hawthorne, not long home from the Crimea, six foot one, independent, hairy as a Skye ter rier, brave as a lion, gentle as a grey hound, and I should say, impressive de cidedly. “What I missed most,” said he, in his open-hearted, unabashed simplicity, “was the sight of a woman’s face.” Whereupon I spoke— “l wonder, Jack, you don’t marry; it would make you a happier man than living half your days in a smoking room of a club. Why Dot pick up a nice girl, and set up the family man at the old manor?” “Well, so I would,” said Jack, inter jectively between the puff and his cigar; *‘But there are no girls now—they're all young ladies! Catch me marrying a young lady!” Duelists Satirised.—The editors of the Tintamarre, a satirical little print in Paris, have given their quarrelsome contemporaries a broad hint that their duels are verging on the ridiculous.— Two of them, M. M. Rossignol andMax ime, agreed to fight, and went down to the country with swords, seconds and the usual paraphernalia ; the men were placed, and the seconds interfered, drawing np the following qneer decla ration : “The undersigned seconds, seeing, from the look of their principals, and the way they flashed their swords, that they were in earnest, and consider ng that the cause of the duel was a mere rifle, decree that it must not take place.” Mrs. Partington’s Last.—“ Where’s the fire ?” asked Mrs. Partington of a fireman, from an npper window, as the bells were waking the night with their clamor. “In h—II,” was the ungallant response, naming the hottest place of perpetual warmth. “Dear me,” said the old lady, not comprehending him, “Is it so far off? I wish it was nearer, for your sake. But he’ll get there soon,” she muttered to herself, “if he goes on as be does now,” and she went to sleep again, invoking blessings on the guardians of public safety. —“Who made the world?” asked a teacher ot a little boy who had not been long in school. The boy shook his head and said nothing. The teacher threat ened to whip him unless he answered. The boy feeling compelled to a confes sion of some sort, broke forth, “Well, master, I made it, but I’ll surely never do it again!” Woman’s Aoe.—How long Eve, the first woman, lived, we do not know. It is a curious fact that in sacred history, the age, death, and burial of but one woman, Sarah, the wife of Abraham, is distinctly noted. Woman’s age, ever since, appears to have been a subject for history or discussion. An UKBiASSin Opinion or an Old Foot.—Some people fly into raptures about a blackbird's whistled notes; others talk sentimental humbug about the lark’s wildly thrilling notes, or tbe nightingale’s pleading notes; but my opinion is, that the only notes worth admiring are—bank notes.
