There are few perhaps of your rea ders who are aware that there are in this cif. a number of oflicers in which lone.. edicts, and fair dames in a state' ingle blessedness, may, for a "con.side-ration.," have themselves duly provided with partners for life; but few perhaps will believe that peo ple of respectable positions in society, and even of rank, have recourse to these matrimonial agencies. Esuch, however, is the fact, and you will see it proved by the report of a case in the newspapers, in which M. Foy, the great marriage broker, is represented S, tying got judgment from a law dishonest client, for hav 1b- m arri t . o f. the et', a. laij er, or a physic. an oes not this reveal a curious atate of society? Fancy a man in want of a wife: "M. Foy, there's a guinea; I want to be married; the girl must be handsome, young, respecta ble. anti have money." "My dear sir," says Fey, "you have just called in the nick of time; Baron Bingo de Binko sent for me yesterday to marry his dau!.hter. Go to her--there is the address-my fee lb. 200." The baron presents himself to the baron states his business-describes his po sition-and is accepted. The Baron then rings for his daughter: "My (lear," says he, "this is Baron Bingo dae Binko, whose ancestors distinguish ed themselves in the Crusades, and having been ruined by the Rovo. lution, their descendants took to mak ing candles, in which they have amas aed money. You will marry him, my dear.'" Very well, pa!'' says the >bedient damsel. "Oh joy ful day!'' cries the Baron, aind he kisses the tips of the young lady's fingzers. -When shall the ceremony bie?"' says he. "Oh :1ot too soon,'' relhies the young lady, wvit~h a modest blush; '"not before the day after to-morrow, dle. cidely i!" "Bie it so, idol of my heart!'' cries the Baron; arnd lhe hur rios off to ordler dresses, prepare dleeds, and bring the ring. An th1 le day after to-morrow the thing is dlone.

The following discriminating criti cism was written for the New York Day Book before the arrival of the Swedish Nightingale in this country. It is neatly pressed, not overstrained, yet not deficient in enthusiasm, and is evidently from tho ien of one well versed in the science of music, and who can write understandingly upon the relative merits of the great vocal iets of the age. The result has verified this criti cism, judging by the best of those we have read upon concerts already giv en. They coincide with the 'views here expressed as to the quality of voice, its tone, compass and capaci ties, of the great Queen of Song. In the first place, thon, Jenny Lind possesses the most remarkable throat (I speak of its inside lining only) ever created. There is scarce ly any limit to her capacity for pro ducing smooth and pleasant sounds, soft and silvery as the breathing of a flute, and uttered in defiance of all difficulties of interval or stretch of compass, with an ease and facility al most incredible.' The thrilling of a lark or canary, the mellowness of the nightingale, the volubility of your own mockingbirk, are all surpassed a o:musigal, t rae ceog" ei cng, , ertam kmdn +arch' )) he y and 'otpebred jtio 'are hrs rn-an eminent dgree. As to what is understood by vocal execution, in the mere mechanical sense of the phrase, Jenny Lind has never been surpassed in the history of inorlern music, and 'was equalled only by Persianti. Her compass is immen ser, running up with ease to F in alt and her organ is of remarkable even ness and equality through all its reg. isters. Add to this that, generally speaking, her intonation is faultless. and that her style of singing and em bellishing betrays always good taste in the detail, though the general ef fect is often marred by over fl'riditv, and you have the means of forming an impartial judgment of what Jenny Lind is. What she is not, is soon said. She is not a vocalist of the modern Italian school; and neither her method, style nor voice at all answers the requrisi tions of that school-that schroo of which G iulia G risi is tihe acknowledge head andh inte-rpreter,andwhose na's ters arnd pupils alone of all the eart h havec carried vocal music to thre point giving expression to high art. Of this schrool , thre academies of Rlo~g na and other cities of I taly, thle stage of the San C'arlos at Naples and La Scala of Mlilan , anrd thle boards oft the Conservatory and the Italianr Opera in IPariis, are the only recogniz'ed cradhles arid homes. It is truen that this style of music is heard ini great perfection at her Marjesty's theatre in London-its bri gh test ornanment s being lured there by the bibe of imn muenise salaries; burt then thre audience is wvantinrg. T.o nine te-nth of these who crowd the Italian O.pera in Lon don, ar selection of Scotch hal lads, In ishi love songs and English glees, would lie a great dleal more sartisfac tory than the sulimest st rains of the eloquence of melody, thre passionr of song, the inrspirationr of. umnsical ex. pression, wich constitute the true Italian O.)era. Thre voice M'lle Lind is sweet arnd pret ty, as I have said; but it is entire ly fr-om her throat. That which is known among the Italians as the voced petto, tire vonice del cantar-e. and which Ihas been developed anid perfected nowhere else but iun theo italian school, is riot possssed by Jenny Lird. In common with all vocalists in Vienna, .Uerlin, and Gernraany, hr voice is wholly from thre throat or head-and consequent ly larck-s that veberating, palpitating qjuality that makes the hearer's heart paint as if he were listening to a D~e mosthenean hust of eloquene. It was this that caused Garcia, in 1842, to discourage the aspiration of the ambitious Swedish girl; and it was this that has forever prevented her from appearing inParis or at the San Curios in Naples or La Socala in Mi lan. This was profoundly wise. Won dcrful as are her gifts of voice and fa. cilities of execution, at either of these places a would have failed. Tbus, then, we can readily settle the true position of Mdlle Lind in New York- Those who know noth ing of music particularly and who love to be astonished, will be delight ed with her graceful and winning manners, and with the musical pyro technics the lets off from her throat; but those who really and truly under stand and appreciate the highest form of vocal music, will be disappointed and disenchanted. Think what you like of this and do what you like with it. But I tell you it is true. TiiE- - ARiER. Village Aristocracy. Many are the follies anl weaknesses of human nature. But none nie more contemptible than those acted out by the scrub aristocrats of our towns and vill ases. Theme are to be found in all ro tutions of life. A mechanic. either has I m1~ derate fortune lift to him, or he aincries a few thousand dollars, and forthwith he puts on airs, and assumes anl inportance perfectly disgusting to all who are ncquainted with the circumn. ssices of his "rise and progress," in the world. Such young ten regard as beneath their dignity the vocat ion of their parents, and not unfrevuentiv a. void letting it be known that they sprang tom such and such sources.

Pierre Lavalles, owner of a vine. yard. near a certain village in the south of France, woed and wedded Mdlle. Julie Goucehardt. Ile lived in a pretty house, and when he took his young wife home, he showed her great stores of ex. cellent things, calculated well for the comfortable subsistc of a youthful anl wgrthy couple. It was seven months after the marriage of M. Pierre Lavalles, M. that Antoine Perron, the Vil age Lawyer, sat in his little parlour, and gazed with a glad eve upon the cheertui firse, for the short win ier was just terminating. Leaning for. ward in his chair, he abaded his face with his hands, and steadily perused the figures ahnting the coals with a most pIlelaant conmteance. The ro(om was small, neat, and coml)iformble, fur the no tary prospered in his lnmble way, and seeking only coinfort, fotiid it, and was Conteit. Suddenly a violent Ingeking at the door aroused him frorfhiis teverie, and his old servant ruih d: to open it.

But the irritated couple were not dis posed to undertake the somniferous tusk, and shortly left the house, as they had come, walking tih same way, but at n distance of a yard or so one from another. Two months and twenty-seven days had passed, when the notary issued from his house, and proceeded toward the house where Monsieur and Madame Lavealles dwelt. A demoiselle teuhered him into a little parlour, where Monsieur and Madame Lavalles had just sat down to4breakfast. The husband and wife sat side hy side, with pleasant looks. and- so en gaged in light and amiahle con. versation that they hardly no. ticed the entrance of the notary.

The small and neat farm-that is, the farm small enough in all its arrangements for the nmanageinent of the force which ci:li.. vales it-is the "angel's visit" of Southern husbandry.

Instead of arms where every thing appears in cimplete order and arrangement, one often imseets with those widely-spriead tumn. ble.downs, where disorder and der muge mient are tumbled tege:her in every v:ar ety of condition; and th:s arises principally from over-croppng.
