George, Friuce of Wales, afterward King Georgo IV , In 1785, at twenty-three aw, and seeing loved, Mrs. Maria Fitzher bert, a charming widow, six years bia aeiiior. -In Dece-nber of the same year he secretly married her. The union was .* 88 invalid, in consequence of the marri-? Age act of 1772, whioh prohibited the formation of any matrimonial alliance by a member of the royal family without the re:gning monarch's consent- Yet no human statute could morally nullify a marriage to which there were no other obstacles. Mrs. Fitzherbort was a lady of excellent family, high moral principle ?

In entering upon this connection .George run a risk far greater than the danger of angering bis father.

IIo could hardly do any thing to widen (ho breach 111 this quarter. But thqre was an ugly statute, which declared that marriago of the heir to the throne with a ^nm?n Catholic, would operate a8 a forfeiture of his right to the succession. Mrs. Fitzheibert was a Catholic.; hence the necessity of keeping the real condition of affairs from the public.

There is a limi,t even to princclv oradit, and bills wtre pouring in with far more rapidity than was agreeable. Tlte King was appealed to for relief.'? This he could afford only by asking Parlianent for an appropriation, and he refused to do so unless to the princ? would promise to marry and lead a reputable domestic life. The alternative was a hard one, but sol6?hn?88 conquered princple, the condition was complied with. Parliament haJ something to say on the subject of the prince's debts as well as hi* fa ther; his debts were enormous, and prudent legislators grumbled. It was a good thing ?i.~ i.-:- ;r !,*> illl iiiq xi \ji a a|/|/ni?u* ,iw u mv had not already one wife, and there were ugly minora that such waa his isilUBtion. It was not wholly certain, however, that such wan the caBe, and ao some hold rfipre9ontative of the people raised thedircot question in the Houae of Commona. The *-ene was an exciting one, and all awaited its anawer with intense interat. We have said that the truth wat not entirely certain but it waa pretty generally suspected.? The Honorable Charles James Fox, the Prince'scho9en friend, was nerert^ileis ready for the emergency. He arose in his seat and flatly contradicted the rumor that his Roy.il Highness had a wife. This w*9 vnQiciunt for the loyal Commons; the appropriation was made and the debts paid. The Prince whs again solvent., but Lis trouble* were just beginning. The bride selected for him was his couBin, Caroline of Brunswick, a giddy, awkward and indiscreet, though well itntentiojied German girl. Her carelessness in dress, free and boisterous manners, and in short her whole character totally unfitted her for harmonizing with the jaded and fastidious libertine who was to become her husband. Baron, afterward Jfarl Malmesbury; a paragon of stiffness and etiquette, was sent over to Brunswick to escort the betrothed Princess to England, the marriage ceremony not taking place u/?tU after her arrival.? The envoy, judging from the account* in his journals, appears to have done bis best to give Caroline good counsel, but his advice was as primly offered as it could have been by any maiden lady of fifty. lie even suggested to her that she should wear cleaner ekirts 1 IJis lectures were of very little benefit to thejr jnercurial subject. On reaching Windsor the "happy bridegroom" was found laboring under the effects of too copious libations, and, after kiMing bis intended, according to court fashion, with *n expression of disgust, at once called for a glass of brandy. There are not wanting stories that later in the eronin^. when the nuptials bad taken place he was brutally intoxicated. However this may have been, the ill omen that accoropa nied the4jretmeeting of the peif speedily devtfdped into misery. It issaid that one of the titled deipirep*, by ^*hom the Prinoe was surrounded, successfully plotted to increase his dislike for his wife.

In vain was she offered a splendid annuity if she would keep out. of the rountiy The indignant king, all leprous with inicjui ,ty as he was, proc ured her trial before tl.o liouse of J>ord us nn adulteress.

Shortly after, the coronation of CJeornro took place . O I I at Westminster Abbv. Caroline nought admittanae, but wa9 spurned from the doorp. She returned home bruhen-hearted and soon after died. Nine years latr;r, in 1830, tho cause of her misery also breathed his last. Called by his flatterers the "First Gontlemen in Europe," he probably died without leaviug a fiiend behind. His true wife, Mrs. Filz.herbert, who had spent her closing decade at her quiet residence in Brighton, purvived him seven years. She was beloved and respected by all, and not least by 'her husband's relations. She will ajwnys be regarded as tho true wife of George IV., a despotic regulation to the contrary notwilhstanding.? Had the wild, hut not thoroughly demoralized Prince of Wale* possessed tho man liness to tell Parliament the truth, instead of meanly concealing an honorable con nection, his future course might have been wiJely different from what it'proved. PR. HALL ON FAILING EYESIGHT. When the Bight is beginniug to fail, the eyes should be favored as much as possible. This can be done? 1. By sitting in such a position as will allow the light to fall upon the page or sewing, obliquely over the shoulder. 2. By not using the eyes for such purposes by any artificial light, or bolure sunrise or alter sunBet. S. By avoiding the special use of the eyes in the morning before breakfast. 4. By resting them for half a minute or so, while sewing, or looking at small ob jects, by looking at thing* at a distance or in the rky, relief is immediate in bo do* ing. 5. Never pirk any collected mutter from the eye!ash?s or corners of the ryos with the fingernails ; rather moisten it with the saliva, and rub it away with the ball of the finger. G. Frequently pass the balls of the fingers over the closed eyelids towards the nose; this carries off au excess of water into the nofe itself by meam of the little canal which leads into the nostrils from each inner corner of the eye, which canal tends to close up, in consequence of the lightest inflammation. which attend weak. nesa of the eves. 7. Keep the feet always dry and warm, so as to keep an excels of blood from the other end of the body. 8. Use eye glasses at first, carried in the ve9t pocket, attached to a guard, for they are instantly adjusted to the eye with very I little trouble ; whereas, if oommon spectacles are used, such a process is required to get them ready, that to save the trouble the eyes are often strained to answer the purpose. 9. Wash the eyes abundantly every morning. If cold water be used let it be flapped against the clored eye with tbe fingers of the light hand, not striking bard* against tbe bail of the eye. But it would seem a better plau to open tbe eyes in pure blood warm water, because warm water is more penetrating than cold; it dissolves, more readily any bardeoed matter that may be about the lids, and is more soothing and more natural. 10. The moment the eyes feel tired, the very moment you are conscious of an effort to read or sew, lay aside the book or needle, and take a walk for an hour, or employ yourself in some aotivo exercise not requiring the cloee use of the eyes.?MalVt Journal of Jliallh.

By way of variation, and for the purpose of bre&kiug the monotony which ho* grown out of oft repeated discussions of Reconstruction Reports, Tax and-Bureau Bills, Bankrupt .Laws and Constitutional Amendments, we prosent herewith an article on "wedding tours,', which being well written by some Jenkius, will be read with interest by all, or at least a very large class : Travelers and conductors, saya the Philadelphia Ledger, are beginning to notice on the railroads a more than usual number of spring and summer wedding tourists. Ready money is abundant, and to just that soit of amount thai few men in these days can find Buy more useful or nrnfituKIn i? ....vomit-in ui u man ill getting inniT.od. Those bachelors, old and young who have made their fortunes within the last three yenrs in oil or railroad Blocks, or war coutract?, find this n convenient reason formating a few months, taking a wife and making a marriage tour to Europe, spreading themaeves in Paris, and doing the GSreat Exiliition, Italy, Great, j Britain, and the l eil of the world in half a ' year. Those tourist* get out of si^hl of the American world, and are not worth our notice here, for, with them all is conventional and regulated simply l>y one consideration?the amount of money they have to tpend. Jenkins arranges it all and publishes it in the newspapers. 13nt I hero is another far more intorestinc ; and umiophtisialed class who daily catch j tlio cyo of the conductor, and are recognized by him and all old travelers ou rail- ; ronds aud steamers at a glance?the bridegrooms and their brides who travel by themselves a few hundred miles on their tours, followed to tho cara by weeping, yet happy, bald headed fathers. On nil the routes lending to and from Niagara they are to be seen.

Generally the bridegroom discovera this firnt, and thrown his arin easily round the shoulders of his wife, as to My defiantly to the cnrioiH, "You cannot tell but what we have been married ihese many years." Not tell ? There is a sort of guiltiness and slyness in the way that arm steals round, firat on top of the seat back, then gradually closer, and a silent, pleased, unperoeiv* ing acquiescence ou the part, of tlio bride. Indeed, it is she who tells the tale most quickly. The broad guage seats are too broad. She seems to prefer the narrower Penneyvania measure; and if you sit on any seat back of them, it may be noticed that the lady's shoulders are not even?the incline just a little, and unperceivedly, while she is sitting uprightly, to her broad soat and bearded partner. For a few hours thus they travel, but in tho long run, tbe bend gravitate?, to the husband's supporting shoulder, and there it will nestle with honest, truthful love. Sometimes in spite of all precautions, a trets or two of rich black hair will get loose, and stray and fall down. But that bride's tresses are so exquisitely silky and oorabed, and polished, that there is order and neatness in their very disorder and abandon.

The principle, which are supposed to bo too much wrapped in my story ?o bo worth tho trouble of acquiring by anv but professional persons, nro those comprehended in the laws of contrast of color and contrast of tone. First, as regards contrast of color. There are three primary colors?rod, blue, and yellow. From those every other color is formed, nnd each has its perfect harmonv in its contracting or complcmentaty color. The complementary of each simple color is formed hy the union of the other two (and | i* therefore called the 6e?'ondiry,) that is, i green being the tnixnreof blue and yellow, j in complementary to red; violet, taing j formed of red and blue, is complementary | to yellow ; and orange, a compound of red j aim yellow, to blue. Each of iheso color.', when place.1 near ! its complementary, intensifies its eUeot. Green causes red to appear redder, blue mills a brighter Lint to orange, and vellow enhances the color of violet. In oilier words, every color looks itB purest and best when it is beside its complcmcnary. I5y means of this simple law of contrast, therefore, we have the power of imparting any tint that we choose to the complexion, and of rendering our costume agreeable to the eye by the har-nony produced by properly contrasted colors; and we may learn to { avoid increasing the undesirable tints of | a sallow complexion by the juxtaposition of blue or violet, or rendering ? florid complexion still more high-colored by contrasting it with green. On the other hand j ladies with golden hair and clear complexions will see that they should wear blue in perference to any other color, hamonizing agreeably, as it does, with the former, with, out exercising any ill effect on the latter ; while those upon whom nature has bestowed dark hair and a rosy complexion shoulder consider green as their especial color. Very daik people may wear extremely light brown, gray or slate color with icupun ity; but those who have light complexions nnd light brown hair should only venture upon pure white and the light tones of the three primaries, bearing in mind that, wherever there is agreeable contrasts there is agreeable harmony.?

HIOU PRICES AUKAD. The prospect* for tho immediate fuiure are unfavorable to the presumption thf?t there will be any reduction in the priceB either of com mod i ties or coin. The prophesies of persons who posnoss peculiar facilities for arriving at a pretty correct esti r r..i? _~i? * i inn u ui uikuic vmueo mo vury yiuomy, and puiul moaL decidedly to their enhancement. Tho coming crops of both our groat agricultural products?breadstuHi and cottou? will be far below tho avonge. As we noticed a day or two ago, it ia the opinion of Mr. W. 13. Langley, of Ohio, who has taken great pams to investigate the matter, that tho grain crop will not exceed onethird the average of former years and he predicts that wo sball have tho highest prices of broadaiutTi and many other products of the soil nnJ necessaries of lipe, for one or two year*, that wo have soon. The cotton crop has also eulTtfred very severely during j the spring, and tho present anticipations | are that the produce will not be moro than a million and a quarter bale*, or less than one fourth the product of the croo of ? f 1859. It is, therefore, eviilont that we shall have no grain that wo can spare for expor tation, nm] that our exports of cotton must be but limitoJ. It is not al all uncertain but that of tho former we may have to become importer*, if tlie wants of the people are to bo fully supplied; for there will bo uo old !<lock to fall back upon, as, according to Mr. Langley'a statement, the atoek of wheat and Hour in the country ia, at the present tiiue, so nearly exhausted that it cannot Inst longer than if so long as tho arrival of tho time when uew wheat will be brought into the market. The short supply will not only raise the prices of both the products, but tho eftect of I.IlP (lcnrcniatinn in I Itn o niAii rifr nf nnr I r.?.?.w ... V..W I..UVHHW VUI export!", caused by the failure in production, will be lo raise prices generally. Importations of foreign merchandise will continun, and though probably it will not be of sufficient an amount to cause a heavy draiu upon our 6upplie9 of specie aud the precious metals. The foreign merchant will require an equivalent for the goods he sends us, and if wo oaD iot pay him in kind, we must do so in coin. It is inevitable, then, that gold will be required for this purpose, and the demand for it bids fair to bo groater than is generally admitted. It is fallacious to snpposo that the European war will tond to any large quantity of spccio being Rent to litis country for in-1 vcstinont in our securities Should hostil- j iLies bocome general througliout Germany, ; it is more than probable that many of our : five-twenties, which have been purchased by the (ienn.-.ns, will find their way back to the Unitfcd Slates. As our owu people loo well know, the tramp of armies is not l>ene(icial to the production of the necessaries of life. Germany will have to pur. chase theae abroad wherewith to f?ed her army and her people. She will have to pay in gold, for foreigners will not take her paper securities. Our own short supply of graiu will preclude! us from sending her any; and consequently we may expect that she will sond to us for gold in exchange for the United States securities which she holds. But some persona may I R.?k: "Will the German people part with those securities fur the purpose of investing the proceeds in the obligations of their own Governments. And tliui supply them with the specie they will need ?'' We all 1 know that when a country ia at war the pa- 1 triotism of its people generally tends to such a roRult. Such was the effect, both North and South, during our late struggle, and there is no reason to bslieve that the Germans will not by a like patriotio impulse. Everything, then, points to an advance in prices. The prospects of the future are certainly gloomy, but there is no crood in shutting our eyes to tliem. We must prepare to meet the hard times when they arrive. Another year will have to roll rouud before we can hope to view a brighter picture, and to do so then we must experience a more genial season than haa been allotted to us in the present year.?iV. Y. News. Paper Collars.?We saw it Btated in a Boston paper, n few days ago, that a young man in that city was suffering "muchly" from pustules on his neck. The young man consulted a physician, who at once attributed them to paper collars, which are now habitually worn. Upon inquiring among bit fellow clerks, the afflioted man discovered that five or six of them were troubled with the same eruption. The last number of the "Round Table" makes this inoident the occasion of a warm protest against paper collars, saying that arsenic is used in the process of enameling tbem, and it is a deadly poison, however it may find its way into the system, whether by absorption from contaot with the akin or otherwise. Whether or not the position taken by the "Bound Table" be oorreot, we not yeotare to say. We present the eubJeot as being fraught with interiMt.

'Besides this, the average duration of the life of those who take exercise or work will be a uumbef of years greater than those who do otherwise. Most persons bogin to feel weak after having been eugaged five or six hours in their ordinary avocation; a good meal re-invigoratea; but from tbo last meal of the day until the next moruiug, there is an interval of some twelve hours; henco the bodv in a 1 - ?

Souethixc Good Out of Nazareth-. ?We have repeatedly had occasion to refer to the mischievous workings of the Freodmen's Bureau in the Southern Statep. Wo hare now to mention an instance to the credit of the establishment coming from an unexpected quarter and arising from an unexpected cau*e. It seems that while tho system works wretchedly in Virginia and North and South Caroliua, in the State of Georgia it 13 not open to the same censure. What is the reason for this! The answer is that while the whole concern is fraught with danger and Bocial evils to the South, its miserable workings are na much attributable to the corrupt subordinate agents who control its nffVim ao w VV IUU bad tetdencies of the system itself. la the first three named States the snbordinates of the Bureau are mostly from the New England States, persons who have gone into the business for purely money making purposes; purposes as the running of plantations on their own account, thehiring out of negroes to labor at their standard of premium, the levying of fiines and fees as special magistrates, <fec. -But in Georgia we find that the affairs of Lha Bureau are conducted by persons who are native bom, who know the character of the negro and are better qualified to aupply his wants and contribute to hit health and comfort than all the mercenary and canting negro worshippers and fanatics that can be sent from New Eogland. A correapondent informs us that out of three hundred and fifty thousand freedmen in Georgir only one thousand two hundred and twenty three aro dependent upon fthe government for support.
