SECOND WIVES.
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.

Gentlem<n-l have received your letter of the 15th
of December, 1866, calling my attention to your
(Darby's Prophylactic) Fluid.
I most cheerfully state that the Fluid was furnish?
ed to, and extensively used by, th? eurseons in
charge of general hospitals In the Confederate ser?
vice with great benefit to the patients-aB the sur?
geons making a favorable report-a great deal of it
was used lu the hospitals.

gaged fox many years in the active duties of the
Medical profession. 1 am only superficially acquaint?
ed with ike cla-ms ef your Prophylactic Fluid, but
am well acquainted with ita chemical elements.
While, therefore, I cannot speak experimentally of
the value of the compound, yet the d ia infecting and
therapeutic properties of the agenta employed in its
composition, together, with the well known reputa?
tion of ita discoverer, aa a chemist, authorize me to
regard its m?rite as of a high order; on the whole it
must be considered as a valuable contrluution to the
class of articles to which it belcngs.
These views, I may add, are aultamed by the testi?
mony of many competent judges, who have tested
ita properties. Believe me, dear cir,

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.
