AB Analysis of tho Aversion Obtaining to ?ecoir? 5?u,vriuB??. ?From the London Leader.] The sentiment of tho age ?B-not without reason-opposed to 8> cond marriages. If mat? rimony wete essentially the social partnership which some philosphera would fain mako it if it were simply a form of covenant, binding the parties to love, honor and obey, till divorce do part them-if it were modelled on the plan of that reformer who wanted to add as a proviso lo the Prayer Book vow. "So long as we both sh ill love"- there would be no reasonable ob? jection te entering into a second, third, fourth or filth partnership on the some elastic foot? ing. Boob a dispensation, indeed, would real? izo the view of the late Adah Menken, that "it is well io marry joane and often." But, unfor? tunately for the reformers and tbe philoso? phers, and ali (ho oilier nice theorists, male and female, philanthropie, free-loving, and strong-n^ixided. society persists in regarding marriage a? a much moro solemn and spir? itual contract than this. Much as it may vex tho clear-aeeing intellect of a Bradlaugh, soci? ety insists upon importing the providential element.into the business, and making Heaven the witness of a contract voluntarily entered into for eternity. Perhaps society is very wrong for all this-wrong in going to church nt all-extremely wron,* to subscribe to that palaver about forsaking ell other, and cleaving only nnto him or ber, as the case may be. IS o doubt they oider these things better in France, where the legal ceiemony is the principal one, with church blessings thrown in ad valorem. If we could only get married quietly and Without fusB, as they do in tbe opera, where au ardent baeao drags an unwilling: soprano to a side-table, and is on the point of consum? mating the business with the aiu of un Notorio and a pad of blotting paper, the social econo? mist would rejoice. Meanwhile, however, so? ciety goes on getting married at the Eagle and riveted . at the communion table, and ac? cepting ? blessing from a posse ot parsons, one assisting tbe other, with a choral force well BP in "The "voice that breathed through Eden That earliest wedding day," and the organ played out the pair to Mendels? sohn'* wedding march, and all the ecclesiasti? cal pageantry complote. It is hard, after al! this, to-attempt to dissociate tbe religious from tho'purely social nature of the proceeding. Let the Bridegroom if he ha given to philoso? phical inquiry, try to dissociate them in his Wife's presence. Let him begin by observing, ""After all. my dear, we are not married in the eight of Heaven, and all that ; it's only a fa?on ?de parler: we have*%impiy entered into a sort Of partnership, ?ou know-like my. association with old, J ones ju the office. ' Let him attempt ibis vein of moralizing, and from his wife's re? ply he will be able to estimate tho rooted feel? ing of society in the matter. Thia, then, is the spirit which dictates that sentimental aversion to second marriages which ia not the less general in that it is sel? dom put into words. Matrimony being, from the sentimental point ot view, a holy business, a bond which is not only gravely to regulate this life, but in all likelihood to exercise an . influenc? over the life to come, the incongrui? ty the indecency-nay, the very sacrilege-of admitting into the spiritual pact mote than one partner, is sufficiently obvious. It savors of psychical polygamy. "1 take Beatrice," says Benedick, -'as the one participant in my weal or woe: I take ber for time and for eterni? ty." But inf a year or two Beatrice dies, and then Benedick chooses Laura as tbe one par? ticipant for time and eternity; and if he sur? vives Laura there is nothing. to prevent him adding a third and fourth to the firm. Now, at each betrothment the san oit y of the busi? ness falls o peg. Nobody entera "upon a second marriage with the same rev?lenos, or earnest? ness, or ardor with which he contracted the first. He ia older and colder; familiarity with the estate has bred indinare nee; the being at hie side fa not a trembling, pure little soul, whom all his strong, chivalrous nature rushes forth to protect, hut a nice sort of person, who is going to look after bis servants and see that bis linen fe kept its good order. Even with the first wife romance ended, by settling down into a Daxbj-and-Joan, jog-trot sort of existence; withHhe asoona one there is not oren the ro? manos tebegiu .with. For few men-so few as to bo out., of .count-make a love match twice in their lives. The first marriage is contracted m the ardor of youth; the second is mostly a calculation- . Either the. widower is weary of solitude, and baa been habituated to the house-' hold o?der over which a mistress presides; or he sees the chance of a wealthy alliance: or he has property, but no hair, and must needs have one; or he wants somebody to look after his little comforts. There are a hundred merce? nary pleas for a second marriage to onie plea of affection. Trae love-*e mean now trne love in it? flaming bachelor state, not the Darby-anrtJoan Jog-trot-seldom survives in a man after thirty. Tho truest, taith fullest, hottest, ana most blissfully un? comfortable love of all is calf-love, which (seldom lasts after seventeen. All- subse? quent passion a are a mere imitation of this not half so absorbing, not a third BO blind, not a tenth so nure. The calf outlives his calf dom, gets the better of epoouiness, laughs at it, and a few years later tries to produce it over again. But he never succeeds. The taurine passion uta mere stage play. He may persuade himselfkgkfct, he ia desperately in love with the deaxeirWfcat ah6 ia an auRol. that if she juted bim he would do something desper? ate-go mad, emigrate, blow Out his brains, perhaps: out in his inner soul he kno . s that this is ail a mere pretence; that his heart is not a raging furnace, but tepid aa mildest shaving water; that his pulse would not hear her and beat had he lain for a century dead-indeed, it does not even quicken now when she enters the room. He sees her faults, none clearer; and he intends to correct them one day There is nothing in hm love like the wild adoring ffs8lonof the school boy; tbatoomes but onco life, anal tbe love which, is bold enough to propose and cations enough to treat of settle? ments is a mere earthly imitation of it. How much baser, then, a second marriage, which means a fiftieth love I If into the first there entered some element of caution, cr more ignoble shrewdness, the second is whol? ly compounded of these, and of a selfishness which is parent of them. The motives which lead a bachelor to propose are mostly single bearted enough; he really loves the girl, and will do all he cac to make her happy. But the widower enters the race with the intonticn that ?be shall make him happy. He lu tbs first party to be considered, not she. And there are few singlo girls, and certainly no widows, con? templating an alliance with a onoe-married man, who do not fully understand this. When a woman aocepts a widower, she must feel Ute asoond-hand nature of tho bargain. P^^?s VH1'} ^ the "oom bas been rubbed off; the sighs are rechauffes ihe vo've are platitndon, tho ciree<oo have been rehearsed o?ftr?. What a won. out pump tno human heart is so far AS love-making ia con? cerned, after ten or fifteen years of married life! Va tejMjfi^ moro pailetlo th? forty wooing tbir y-tbree, and counterfeiting ?he languors of twenty ? Or anything more cynical than the sight of a bright-eyed maiden who imagine* she holds in thrall that view, moustache of a heart which has survived the wear and tear of a matrimonial campaign f But as a rale she does not imagine any thing of the kind; abe accepte tho situation at it* true Taine, knowing that the Widowed affections are ao much Wardour-street lumber; knowing that another woman has boen bator a her and -extra ot od all tbe pith and marrow of ro> manoo leaving Uio busk io the second wife, ?ho bargains, therefore, lor a po afltion, and not ? passion; ?arrice him for his money, or his title, or hie ?tatos, or because she may not have another offer, or for any other motive that may be dominant love being the last and least. Will she do a true wife's duty by bim; will she be a seoond mother to bis childi cn; will ehe "order all thing? duly," like Lady Burleigh th? First? Let the poor little neglected hearts that have sobbed themselves to steep on their pillows make reply. As the second mamma is to the first, so ie the second wile; it may be a cruel edition, sometimes a careless one, sometimes an indifferently honest one; always an inferior one. For you will find the role bold good inst there is but one true love in life and one married love; the first holds precedence, tbe after one weakens in arithmetical progression. When widows and widowers pair the sight bas always tho savor of a huckster's bargain. On ne revient pas a ses premiers amours. -Io order to vex tbe Russian oppressors, the Poles of Warsaw have suddenly taking a great liking to tbe Gorman language. They oauBo their children to study Gorman instead of Russian, and the German language is spoken at all places of amusement, while the Russia*} tongue ia not used there at al). The Pole who speaks Russian is at once shunned in cons?quence by bis countrymen as a renegade and traitor. -Marshal Kiel and Lord Lyona, the British Ambassador in Paris bave laid a wager aa to the comparative speed of the English and French iron-clads. The French paper? havf? hitherto claimed that their iron-clads sailed muon faster than the English: but in offioinl English oiroles this assertion ie derided, and a test race between the iron .clads of the two countries has been proposed. -Bismarck said, recently, to a prominent member of the North-Geiman Parliament, that be knew both Napoleon ILIaad r rancia Joseph were in f ivor of peace, bat the leading ladies of their courts (meaning the Empress Eugenie and the old Archduchess Sophia,) were con? stantly trying to bring about a war against Prussia.

E. H. KELLERS, M. D. May aa_c AYER'S SARSAPARILLA, FOR PURIFYING T UK B I* O O D . THE REPUTATION ibis excellent medicine en? joys, ls derived from ita eurea, many of which are truly marvellous. Invete? rate casca of Sorolnlous disease, where the system seemed saturated with corr up lon, have been pu lided and cured by it. Scrofulous affections and disorders, which were ag? grava'ed by tho scrofu? lous contamination until they were painfully afflictiog, have been radically cured in such great number? in ainu it every section of the country, that the pablic scarcely need to b? Informed of its virtues or use?. Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often this unseen and uni eh tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and invites the attack ot enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it xeema to breed infection through the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develops into one or other 01 its hideous forms, either on the surface or among the vitals. In tbe latter, tubercles I may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or I tumors formed in tho liver, or it shows it? presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations on tome part of tho body. Hence the occasional use ot a bottle of this SARAPARILLA ls advisable, even wben no active symptoms of disease appear. Per? eons afnicte ' with the following complaint? generally find iran ed late relief, and, at length, cure by the use of this SARSAPARILLA : St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ring Worm, fore lyes. Sore Ears, and other erup? tions cr visible forms of Scrofulous diteaee. Also, tn the more concealed forme, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Beart Db ease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia, and the va? rious ulcerous affections of the muscular and ner? vous svstems. syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cur>-d by lt, though a long lime is required for sub? duing these obstinate maison s by any medicine, But long continued nee of thia medicine mil cure the complaint. Leucorrh?es or Whites, Uterine Ul? c?rations and Female disease, are commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by ita purifying and invigorating effect Minute Directions for each csse are found in our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheu? matism and Gout, when causea by accumulations of extraneous matters in thc blood, yield quickly to lt, as also Liver Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion ai Inflammation of the Liver and Jaundice, when aris? ing, as they often do. from the rankling poisons in the blood ?hia SABSPARILLA is a great restorei for the strength and vigor of tbe system. Those who are LanfjuiA and Linties, Despond un t, Weepies* and troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or rears, or aay of the affections symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate relief and convincing evidence of its restorative power upon trial. raXPAUKD BY Dr. J.
