PROPOSALS ARD REFUSALS.
[From John Ba" I
"Monsieur," said ar??urtly Frenchman,
when demanding the hand of alair young-lady
In marriage from her lather, "Je. demande
>HalenK>lseLre votre nile. : Si elle a de l'argent,
c'est bien : ai elle n'en a pas, o'est toujours
-UfciMtiAiiece votre fille due le vous demand*. ?
This was a.. proposai of the bid school, of that
.'haut ecole? (to use a circus phrase) which
ses ms W he completely on the wane. Propo?
sai f hr . these* days ' ara hot generally based on
BU<n mwerfish principles, or expressed in such
hi g h-b red language. Tho thought of tho pro- !
posen too ?lten ds, how mutt the lady will re?
ceive as tv marriage portioij, and whether the
fan i iiy win be an .advantageous one to be con?
nected with - while the object or the proposal
ga her part will speculate on the prospects of |
th? - gentleman, and consider whether, in the
event of a richer suitor coming forward, she
OOuM nnd a loophole for dismissing the accept?
ed one. However, where there is real love,
teaed upon mutual esteem, be the couples
young, old or middle-aged, the "settlements"
are not the one primary consideration In the
Ideas of the betrothed. A young and yet mer
cen?ry engaged-couple is truly a terrible thing
to see : but some allowance must be made for
tho Indirect influences'brought to bear on the
on by..essentially worldly parents and
_^ti?8? "Faulte comes thick where love
i thin f therelore, the less ardent the mutual
devotion, the more numerous the so-called
"hitches" which so often occur in the attempts
to arrange a mariage de convenance.
AS people advance in years and still contem?
plate matrimony, there is generally one who
is eager for an establishment or marriage at
any price-this being of course the lady; while
the gentleman is not so anxious to be settled,
unless.he sees that considerable advantages
w Ctrl d ac crue tram it, tending to his personal
comfort, er. convenience. Proposals are not so
frequently received by ladles after the sober
age of thirty, and are, therefore, more eagerly
grasped. A long engagement is at that time
out of the question, as both lady and gentle?
man, we presume, are oi an age to know their
own minde,,. Bot when a man proposes to a
woman over forty (lt ladies ever do attain that
venerable age,) he has generally well calcula?
ted not so much her personal charms as those
of her. personalty. The solillquies of such a
mon over his" cigar are in general much the
same as the reflections of Mr. Alfred Jingle,
after escaping, under pretext ot .getting the li?
cense, from tho bony caresses of the Spinster
Aunt. These thoughts found vent In three
words-"Bum old gal."- -
We.heard the other day of a curious refusal
to .an oilier of-marriage. A gallant captain
proposed to a yoong lady when playing a game
at besique. . Although she had no intention of
accepting him, her only reply was a grin, sub?
stituted for the monosyllable-No; thus con
ti-adlc'lng the proverb that "Silence gives con?
sent" Tue captain, In short, bad to grin and
bear it; and but for the confluences of the lady
to an indiscreet married friend of her acquaint?
ance, this little story would never have been
known. Wajjannot say that the lady in her
refusal emuMed the manners of the french
courtier whose manner of demanding a young
lady, in marriage we mentioned at the com?
mencement of this essay; but she certainly was
no wasteroX ;worda- a grand quality in woman.
A proposal from a man who is not only mer?
cenary, out penniless, suggests much that is
egotistical in his character, and one would not
argue much for the. future happiness of the
lady, should she accept him. Such a man stops
at nothing that panders to hie own conveni?
ence, and pause! not to consider whether he
can euler her a home and comforts in an j sort
. cf proportion to whatshe has been accustomed
to luher parent's house, and has the vanity to
think that his charms alone are sufficient to
dispense with the trivial matter of a balance at
his banker's. Supposing her to be an only
daughter, ox the last unmarried one, and no
sons In the way, he may think her home a con?
venient pied ? terre. Properly interpreted,
this would mean that he is to be master ol'the
situation, keep all the other members of the
fariliyata respectful distance, and rule over
the cukvani master and mistress of the estab?
lishment, playfully calling them the "Old
Birds.'' Let these antiquated fowls remember
that, "AveB fetus adultos sua; lpsorqm fiducie
permittunt," and pause ere tbey resign 'the au?
thority of their own home to the guardianship
of Buena man. There is something mean
spirited in a man not wishing to make a home
for the woman whom he has asked to be his
wife, and he must be greatly wanting in self
respect who. can submit to be entirely depen?
dent on another's bounty.
There are cases in which people propose
without the very smallest encouragement,
. their vanity so blinding them that they believe
they can win without the trouble of wooing;
but the faint-hearted class, even under en?
couragement procrastinate and shilly-shally
until the opportunity they have long wished
for bas passed away, and they have thc morti?
fication ot seeing the prize they, had lon?
coveted appropriated by a more prompt and
less timid suitor; There arc those who be?
lieve in late, and propose almost at first sight
or on the very shortest acquaintance, risking
their chance of refusal. Believing thoroughly
. with Marlowe, in his once /popular poem of
"Hero arid Leander," that
"When both deliberate the love is slight:
Who ever l?ved'that loved not at first sight *'
Treating of refusals, it is both heartless and
dishonorable ia a woman ta encourage and
draw on a man to make her an offer wbteh she
no Intention of accepting, and when she mere?
ly wishes to swell the list of her suitors or to
boast -of the-,number of conquests-she has
male. But people do anything nowadays
break off engagements, make lreslr proposals,
do not take refusal of any kind as sine die, and
conduct such affairs, without principles, with?
out rule, without remedy. We lift our hands
regretfully, and say, O t?mpora / O mores.'

FLAVORING EXTRACTS
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.
GREAT REDUCTION IN PRICES.
QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED.
We beg leave respectfully to call the attention
of the pabilo to our Superior Flavoring Extracts.
As ten years have now elapsed since we first In?
troduced them to the notice of the American pul>
llc, we deem it unnecessary at present to enter
Into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac.
There ls hardly a city or town of any note in the
country Into which they have not found their
way. The reason of this widespread popularity
and dally increasing demand ls owiug entirely to
their peculiar excellence and intrinsic worth.
Being determined to make them the Standard Ex?
tracts of the day, we have still further improved
their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be?
lieve that they stand without a rival. Oar Vanilla
Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and
delicacy of oavor. It is a strictly pure and high?
ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beaus. In
short, we think it the best that is made, at least,
this ls the decision of the best judges In the coun?
try. We don't pretend to compete In price with
many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the
day, which are really but worthless compounds,
undeserving of the name.
For quality and style, we defy competition.

RUSSELL'S SOOTHING CORDIAL ls offered to
the public with an absolute guarantee against all
danger from its use. Read the following certifi?
cates:
CHARLESTON, May 16, 1868.
Mr. J. B. RUSSELL, one of our careful and intel?
ligent Pharmaceutists and Apothecaries, has sub?
mitted to my examination the formula for the
preparation of a Soothing Cordial prepared and
vended by him.
It affords me pleasure to express a favorable
opinion of its sale and efficient adaptation to the
particular cases or the diseases of children, which
it is designed to relieve.
E. GEDDINGS, M. D.
Having had occasion to prescribe RUSSELL'S
Soothing Cordial In severe cases or Bowel Com?
plaints in children and delicate females, I have
been much pleased with its effects. I consider it
a valuable medicine In all cases, in which it may
bc advisable to avoid thc usc of anodyne, and par?
ticularly for family use, as it ls perfectly safe.
W. T. WRAGG, M. D.
CHARLESTON. S. C.. I sss.
I certify that 1 have most successfully used
RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial in the Summer Com?
plaints of infants. He has fully exhibited the in?
gredients of his remedy, and the tedious method
of preparation, i recognize the prescription
containing no anodyne whatever-as a most safe
and etti cations one in bowel affections of children.
When much pain or restlessness attends the affec?
tion, doBes or Paregoric can bc added to the pre
scribed doses of the Cordial according to the age
or the patient. The compound, though more
often, acts in an eflicient manner w.thou: aL>y ad?
dition of anodyne.
In the Diarrhoea of the aged, in increased doses,
it is of great value as a remedy; never disagree?
ing with thc stomach-increasing appetite, im?
proving digestion, and acting asa slow but effi?
cient astringent agent.
W. M. FITCH, M. D.
CHARLESTON, S. C., 1868.
Dear Sir-I have used your Soothing Cordial for
Diarrhoea in teething children, and lind it a very
excellent preparation, lt has a great advantage
over most preparations of the kind in containing
ne?Opium or Narcotic.
When these are required they can bc added in
proportions applicable to the case.
I therefore can recommend its use in the affec?
tions for which it is designed.
Respectfully yours, Ac.
T. L. 0G1EK, M. D.
MOUNT PLEASANT, S. C., 1868.
Mr. J. B. Russell :
DEAR SIR-I have used your Soothing Cordial
for children extensively in my practice, and most
:heerfully testify to its merits. I have found lt,
without an exception, to accomplish all it claims,
md consider i; superior to anything in use for
children.
Ita freedom from anodyne of any kind recom?
mends it as a perfectly safe preparation in the
lands of mothers and inexperienced nurses.
Very respectfully, Ac,
