Mr. Thurlow Weed.
New York Correspondence Syracuse
(2Te\v York Journal.
T ind t'if< nloasure to-^av of a brief
interview with Mr. Thin-low Weed.
He has como back from Europe in
much better health than ho was when
ho went away, some months ago, anil
is as full as ever of anecdoto and
reminiscencc of old timos. llis memory
is clear a? a young man's, and
rich in experience of many phases of
political life. Unlike most people of
Lis age, he is not .inclined to look upon
the times of Lis youth as better
than the present-except in one particular?
that thcro is more political
corruption anong the people at large
and among politicians, at the present
day, than In the younger days of the
republic. It was pleasant to hear
liim speak of the days when ho and
tho late James Ilarper wero fellow
pressmen in a small printing shop in
John street, and used to get through
with their regular "stent" of work
before dinner, so as to havo the remainder
of tho day for "over-work,"
for which they received extra pay.
? ?:.1 L- i
"ALflny a ume, ??iu uu, uu>v>
through two-thirds of our task before
breakfast." Mr. Weed has recently
hoen placed on the pension roll, for
military services performed in the war
of 1S12. and says nothing for a long
timo bas given him so much pleasure
a? banding over the first quarter's
pa-' merit to an "aged and povertystricken
comrade who had served by
his side.
Mr. Weed told many stories to illustrate
the advance made in household
comforts since the daj-s when tho use
of ice, now an'indispensable article in
every family, was wholly unknown ;
when house furnaces were still nninvented;
gas was not so much as
droamed of, and tho markets, except
in tho larger cities, were small and illsupplied.
"Why, sir," said he, "I remember
once hunting all over Albany
for tomatoes- Most of tho market
men had never heard of them. At
lust 1 t'onnd one wno naa seen mciu
in Now York, but didn't belicvo they
could be procured anywhere out oi'
the city. I asked him to send to New
York for them, and he did so; but
there was only one man besides m}-self
who bonght them when they were
obtained. Most peoplo looked at them
with positive aversion, and many believed
them to be poisonous. At that
time Spanish mackerel, now esteemed
ono of our most delicious kinds of fish,
wcro very plentifu'; but the fishermen
wouldn't encumber their boats
with them. They called them 'horse
mackerel,' and ahva}*^ threw them
back into the water, as unfit for eating."
Afr. Weed's mcmor}r of political
events is wonderful, and his forthcoming
book will be rich in reminiscences
of the man who shaped the character
and destinies of parties up to the departure
of the old whig organization.
?? > ?
Early Marriages.?Opinions vary
much in reference to the subject cr
early marriages. Some contend that
tho young should not take upon themselves
the responsibilities of wedded
life because their judgments are not
sufficiently mature to understand and
? nf?J>rtrcrv?t'cr-t4*-o of tlu>*o i?csponsibilities.
Others contend that age blunts the
finor sensibilities, and causes the individual
to bccomo set. in his or her ways,
and that it is difficult for such persons
to harmonize, each one disliking to
relinquish or modify habits which
have become fixod and somewhat like
n second nature.
Tho truth is, the freshness of youth
ought to be preserved to a much later
period ot life than it is, and then this
last objection would lose much of its
power; additional age and the experience
and ripening of judgment and
roason which it brings, would bo bettor
to qualify thoso of both sexes to
enter into this solemnn arrangement
with a surer prospect of happiness
than is now the case.
The unchecked imagination of youth
and early manhood and womanhood
pictures the future all too bright and
cloudless for the reality, as it ever has
been and over will bo found in this
world; and tho result is too often a
disappointment so deep as to render
life unpleasant and to sour tho disposition
On the other hand, the sot
way of old bachelors and maids is
quite an offset to their ago and wisdom.
If the wisdom of tho old could
joined t'- the freshness of the heart
of tiio vour.g, the result would by
fcr-i'pTncss in nearly every caso
wedded lite. This could be dpoe, but
jiot well, under the present state of
societv.
?
< -
Pretty Women.?There is a chilly,
disagreeable kind of article called
common sense, which is of .all things
most repulsive and antipathetical to
ail petted creatures whose life has
consisted in flattery. It is the kind
or talk wine a sisters arc very apt to
hoar from brothers, and daughters
from fathers and mothers, when
fathers and mothers do their duty by
them; which set the world before
i hem a-? it is, and not as it is painted
hy flatterers. Those women who prefer
the s -cicty of gowtlvimcn, and who
have the faculty of bewitching their
senses. n-'vor arc in the way of hearing
forn this cold matters f fact region
; for them it really does not exist.
Every phrase'that moets their car is
polished and softenod, guarded and
dolicrtcly turned, till thero is not a
particle of homely, .truth left in it.
They pass their time in a world of' illusions-they
demand these illusions
of all who approach them, as tho sole
condition of penco and favor. All
gentlemen, by a sort of instinct, recognize
tho woman who lives by flattery,
and give her her portion of meat
in due season ; and thus some poor
I vomen arc hopelesely buried as suicides
used to be in Scotland, under a
mountain or' rubbish, to wnich each
pn"scr-by addsone ?Tor.e. It is only
hv sop.ie extraordinary power of circ'Mnstancos
that a man can be found
to invade the sovereignty of a pretty
woman with any disagreeable tidings;
or, as Junius says, ' to instruct the
throne in the language of truth."
O O
The ccrcmony of tying the marriage
knot is much simplified in the ilocsier
State, as the following will show :
<'VVhat is your name, sir ?'* '-Matty,"
' What is your name, Miss?" "]PblIy."
"Matty, do you love Folly?" ".No
mistake " "Polly, do yon love Matty?"
"Well, I reckon.'^ "Well, then,
" 'I pronounce you man and wife
All the days of your life.' "
Squirrels are so groat a nuisanco in
California that a bounty of ten cents

fifteen cents cach, swelling his receipts
to two thousand five hundred dollars

to be more valuable than thoso of tho

A "jour" tailor named Jimmy Yolk,

an average 3,000 miles every year.
The murderer of tho Justice Normon
of Calcutta was hanged, and his
body then burned by low-caste men,

he may not bo able to find him.
A fearful scone was enacted recently
at Jaucr, in Silesia. A young girl,
who had murdered her child, was to
be beheaded. When she was led out
she fought desperately with the executioner,
who was not able to kill her I
until he had stunned her by a blow on
-the head with tho handle of his axo.
A guild of ladies is proposed to be

The year is past, and Christmas comes,
To bless us with its cheer;

0, Christmas is a jolly time For

And grown up children too may share
Its merry sports and joys.
'Tis nice to frolic now and then,
Say once or twice a year;
With open hands and merry hearts,
To chase away dull care.
Then let us have a royal time
And merry, merry be,
And eat and* drink, and sing and dance
Around the Christmas tree.

Let's call on Mr. Cox,
And get from Mars as home we go,
The little Christmas box.
, 0
And now perchance some child has

The croup, perhaps a chill;
Of Richmond, Parker, Archer, Branch,
And Wardlaw ask a pill.
The money's spent?we homeward go,
Come children bid adieu,
To teachers W., P. and L.
And Capt. Parker too.
BwFsta.v, we nuist the preachers see,
