New York Sun. Old ivialds 1lake the Best Boarding House Keepers. Prof. A. E Willis delivered a lectare in St. Louis on the subject of " Love and Marriage." According to the Re publican, beforo commencing his re marks he exhibited a skull and pointed out phrenologically all the peculiar characteristics of the person who carried it around. He endeavored to show whero the love part of the brain was, and then commencing is lecture proper, ie said ho wanted to speak of the power of love. No such man as Brigham Young, in his opinion, had any love in him. He had too many wives. To fal in love peoplo must feel as if they could caress and embraco each other. Some girls like to hug and kiss, and oth ers didn't care a cent about it. It all depends upon the organ of conjugality. Some married people never kissed each other, while others were very fond of kissing. Couples often got along well enough, but there was not that congen iality between them that should exist between man and wife. Love, he con tended, was in its very naturo attraction or magnetism. Love, what is love? 'Tis the striving of two Iipirits to bo one. Many people, lie added, were apt to be nistaken in their 'affections. There were lots of it in the United States, wh ticih he attributed to novel-reading, the hitfer producing too much sonti mentalism. Ho then described the average yotung couple going through a egt *of Conrting, and said there was Just as muc dif'erance as between black and white. Love blinded most folks. Ifi girl was in lovo to a man she became blind to his faultn. A second test cf love was thUt lovers were always unhappy if not in each other's presence. Tlio third test was, if you were in love with a person you would die for him. Such facts wvere good evidences. Love ho regarded as a 1o1 of happiness. Let an old1 maid fall in love and her eyes would sparkie and she would look ten years younger. She wolid become a chiangred hbeing. He was just a little se vere on old1 maids, for Oe said1 the most of them wecre sour. They made the bes:t boarding-houso keepers, though, in the worl. Tihe gre at object of modern court sip, lhe cotntiinued, was to get acquaint ed, mal~rry and fool each other. Ho po in ted out the doeccytion practicedl nowadays inl order to win a wife or a husba, an spoke of commercial mar Hie claimed that ini all questions of mairringo the facial expressions should be studied. Men and wvomen ought to know about human nature. To' L4ove, Hlonor-, and Obey. The ol-timie formula in the marriage service, by the utterance of which the brido unreservedl y commnits herself to ob)edieneot to the dlictaltes of the man she inaurrie s, is greatly disliked b~y most woen Tre~ are many who are willing lo say they will love the man. Some go so far as to p~romise him honor. But in impjlicit obedience there seems to be something so lavish that the feminine soul instinctively recoils from it. Some wvomen reqluire that the olliciating cler gyman shall omit the objectionable word. Others waint it to b)e slurredl over so as to be hardly audible, and there are some who aro willing to have it pro nounced aloud and to respond to it with the understanding that it means no more than the "'with all my goods I thee en dowv" which is uittered by the bridegroom, whose sole possessions are the goods upotn his back. WhTlen, therefore, the married man in sists on the full carrying out of that part of the contract in which obedience is p~romlised by the wife, lie either becomes ani obtject of ridicule or else otherwise gets himself into trouble. Thus it was with one Davenport of St. Louis, yho undertook to rulo tihe wife of his bosom as an Oriental potentate would lord it over the inmates of his harem. Within a few weeks after marriage this tyranni cal person began his tyranny, exacting the most rigid obedience to all his dic tates and making his wife's existence a protracted misery. This autocrat seems to have been woofully jealous of his wife and~ to have had stout objections to her even speaking to other gentlemen. To carry out his views on wifely obedience hoe enacted a set of rules for her govern ment and gave them to her as her guidoe while on a visit to Now York. Trhese constituted a sort of moral strait-jacket, to the great discomfort of the poor womani whor was expected to do the obeying. She was to speak to nobody in traveling excep~t to conductors an'd porters. She was to go directly to her miothicr's boarding house and there salute nobody excep)t her own relations. She was to refrain from singing in the board ing-house parlor. She was to remain with her mother continually, day and ntight. She was to eat with the okd lady or else at a separate table by herself. And she was on no account to permit herself to be introduced to anybody with a view or forming new acquamnt aneces. As if all this were not enough, the p)oor strait-jacketed creature was every night to write to her tormentor a full and exact accounit of her doings and goinga and sayings, which was to be warranted faithful and truthful. it is not surprising that a divorce suit grewv out of this system of compelled (obe)dtoceiC. The woman who couild obey such a tyrant as this follow could neither honor nor love him. The man who couldl thius shrivel a woman's soul is worthy of nothing better than a divorce, but the divorce should be of the sort wxhich forbids him to marry again and himig any other woman under the ban of luis horrible tyranny. The "obedience" idea may be good in theory, but as soon as it is put io severo practice it be comes so odious that it chafes the mar riage bond, and before long begins to ravel it. The obedience and honorD which do not cpring from love are not |worth having.-Phailadelphia Time. A PAPER laid before thes Biological | Society of Paris tells us, from a scientific I oint of view. what t im. ia i ~a . 4 that Is Still Open. yng thean are disposed and with o0me justice nowadays to complain that aU the vocations awe overcrowded, and that for every vacant clerkship there are a sore of applicants. - It is also made a theme of lament that the professions are too full, and young men who have a moderate capital and some business capacity and experience, declare- that in mercantile pursuits competition is ruinous and that a small sum of money is of little account in the settled com munities. Granting that these com plaints are well founded there is a field still open for energy, skill and ambition. The problem of how to make a living can be perhaps more satisfactorily solved by falling back on the soil than by any other experiment. There are still cheap lands in the West and South, and if a young man lacks money to farm on a big scale, he can begin in a smaller way, and by stock raising, small fruits, truck patching or some other limited essays in this wholesome and useful field of agri-. culture secure a living, and, with reason able fortune, in time a competence. There are hundreds of young men in cities who could, in a few years, save up enough money, if they were so inclined, to buy E little place and devote them selves to raising food for the ever-in creasing millions of consumers in the country. With all the hardships of farm lifo, and they have been greatly exagger ated, it is the happiest life known to men. It is freer from the bickerings and the worriments and the tortuous do vices and the selfish rivalries and the an tagonisms that mark the struggle of hu inanity for food, shelter and clothing than any other mode of existence. It is a life which is commonlr attended with health, with good appetite and digestion, sound sleep, clear complexion, expanded lungs, firm muscles, an open mind and an untroubled conscience. The man who gets fairly under way in this pur suit with his house, his lands and his crops unembarrassed is certainly an in dependent man if such a being exists. In the genial Routhern climate he es capes the severities of winter, and his lot is a still happier one. Ho is sure of food, and if ho be decently prudent he never need know what debt is. There are localities in Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Florida where an energetic young man, with lit tle capital, could do better at farming than he could possibly hope to do in any city at any other vocation, and out in those far regions of Oregon and Wash ington Territory there are splendid op portunities for young mu to begin now a career useful, happy and prosperous in tilling the soil under the open sky, away from the contentions of cities. The temptations in cities which invite a reck less waste of nmoney are apt to keep those poor who do get good salaries, and then a salaried position is always one of more or less dependence and precarious in its tenure. To be one's own master is a thmng to be0 coveted and sought after. The b~ravo and energetic young fellowv who has made a good selection of a little farm in a well-watered valley, and who means to be forehanded and avoid debt and slavery, can in time, unless he is signally unfortunate, be his own master in every proper sense, and he will find this free and beautiful open-air life a thousand-fold.happier than the artificial lifc of towns. Here there is a field that is ever open. There is no danger of its being overcrowded. There will alwayE be a tendency to rush inito the cities foi the excitements which flourish there, and the wise and ardent young men whc turn their backs on these false showk anid go straightway to nature will come out betst in the long run. They will havc madoc a good and substantial living, whilst the spendthrifts of the towns arc still wondering, with empty heads and purses, howv it can be done. The South and the Northwest still offer welcome, and the generous soil yet contains re wards for those wvho are deserving. Louisville Commercial.

Affecting the English. It has been apparent to people in the East for some time that English man ners, customs, and styles of dress are making a large impression on the inhab itants of the great seaport towns. Aping the English is common. Business and society drift into English ways. Minds begin to have English expressions and the thought is tinged by English senti ment. Even the New York newspapers, which ought to be purely American in ideas, are drifting into English ways. We see the slow old methods developing gradually in the metropolitan newspa pers of Newv York and - Boston. Some minds naturally pay tribute to the old and conservative. Some run that way because it is easy and successful. Others imitate because they are natural toadies. Even Bret Harte, the product of the West, has, since his brief stay in Europe, become thoroughly Engl ishized. The same charge is also preferred against Lowell.
