to sec /iis father in.law, in relation to some
of tba past troubles, sent his clerk, ft ^oung

request that he should icall upon bira. Mr.

JO AU LY M Ainu AG KS, - Opinions vary 01140b
in 1 eferonoe to tho subject of early marriages.
Hoine eon tend that the young should not
tn ko upon themselves tho responsibilities of
wedded life beonuso their judgments ure not
sufficiently mature tu understand ?ind Hf.,*?re
elute thu irrentness of those responsibilities.
Others contend that ?go blunts tho finer
sensibilities, and onuses th? individual to be
douin ?et in his or her ways, and that it is
di Ilion lt for such persons to harmonise, enoh
rino disliking to relinquish or modify habits
which* hrtite become fixed und somewhat like
i second nature.
The truth is, tito freshness of youth ought ,
to be preserved t > H much lt tor period of life
illili it is. and then this last object iou would
loso much of its .power 5 additional age und
tho experience and ripening of judgment and
reason which it bril)'.-*, would be hotter to
pialify tlmso of both sexes to cuter into this
10I011111 urrntigomeiit with a surer prospect of
nippiness than is now the c?so.
Tho unchecked imagination of youth nnd
?arly manhood mid womanhood pictures the
ut uro till too bright and cloudless for tho
reality, ns it over hus been und ever will be
found in this world ; timi tho result is too of
en a disappointment sn deep us to render life
inplcasnnt and to sour the disposition. On
the Other hand, tho SOt Wily of old bachelors
ind maids is quite un offre; to their npre mid wU
loin. If th? wisdom of tho old could bo
oined to tho freshness of the heart of the
foung, the result would be happiness in nearly
5vory Cliso of wedded life. This could be
