A Bridegroom of' Seve,ty-F'ive Years Gives His Views on Matrimony. Among the telegrams of congratula S tion recoived by Gen. and Mrs. Long street. upon the occasion of their mar ringe was one from the New York World, which invited the "young hero who begins life at 80" to give his views of marriage, and how hoe approached the nuptial altar upon this occasion. As soon as Gen. l.ungstrcct found timle ho complied with the World's request, andL teigraphed the foloving reply : " To the World : Accepting the kind compliments of the World upon, this, the occasion of my happy marriage to one of the umost charming ladies of Georgia, permit me to cxpre,ss to you my appreciation of America's greatest newspaper.t "' People have been marrying ever since the world began. In fact, if w( read the Bible record a"ight Adam did not know his ago when the Almighty ' fashioned for him the helpneet, who was, later on, to play such anl i:nl por taut part in the worid. Youth is a re lative term, and is not correctly ex Xpressed by-years. The young hwart b often the creation of years of sorrow preceding, and the sunlit face u the man of '75 i more suggestive of thl perconial youth that makes men at, tractive than the frowning visage o 20, which speak:, of discontent anl un rest.. I have oft,en, as your congratu tion suggests, been struck wit,n the epigram of Iolmlles that he was "so years young.' "The counting of ane is often all matter of point of view. The yuuth first counting his years, which proceed from nothing, esteems hin elf i o:uig because they are few. The man o many yeats might .ually aucouni himself young because unis renmlaindei is cqually few. As t experienco the influence of this happy day I a-k my self if 1 am real:y old, or anm I just I, ginning to be young Y There is ti.e. behind me, I know, much of which has been wasted b.ecause its giving i was prodigal. There are glorlou.. t years ahead of me which I can ap preciate becaus3 I have at last learned I their valuc. I think, and feel ano t enjoy. God has blessed my later year c with a presence and an undtrsunding y which have multiplied their value ant lh rendered their oxistence a plLa-,ure. , As I have grown from decade to t decade I have seen the growth and ( neveiilopmet, of a .'am33ily wheb loved~ ' and cherished. .11i the order of Pro. 0 videuce the wife and mother has been r removed ; the children have left the I shadow of the parent tre'+, and o sl S has flown to a nest of its osvn. I stb,l remain in the ol house, with but the i pictures to look at or an occasional u letter to read fron an a';sct eU. i I feel lonely because of the want of v companny, but, excuse Imle, I. do not foul w old' There is too nlucit bounding of ( the pulse, too strong a punmpi .g of th.. h heart, too great a wealth of atlection, W to allow of mc drying up like an old o mummy, to ba set aside inl some mause- C leuti. There is life and energy and c amilbit.iorn left, and wheie these are youth has not flow n. I " W hatt then was more natur;l tiharn rr that I should put ny houise in orde!r, rh pay renewed attention to my toilet it and tvander out to see what kind of an n im pres ion I could make ? I found a f pretty face and was attracted; I sought t acqutintancc with the owner and was i hr'.md; I rel h;r heart and found \ It pure I I looked In her soft nlue eye. and found that love was twinklIng there. I, of course, hesitated to press t myQ' suit until I felt assured, anl surely, thought .1 to my3self, if she thinks mer joung what needl have .1 to carne what< others thinke? During the years that : are left to m11 1 can bie to her such a husband that not all the y'oun)g men in I Clhristendom could ccqual, and the nmcmnry which she will carry diown a tIne years when, in the order of nature, .[ may not ha p)resent, will be t> her a 1 sweet dream to be treasured and trans muitted to children's children. 4What does a woman gain by mar- .i riago y Alh, 'there is -a question to 2 which dliverse arnsweres mig ht be given. How often. the y'oung woman mlarries -v her eq ui in years to find hierselIf 1bu3t t the companion-slave, whesu value is v reckoned by tile work she does. The a 'other day a (li-tinguished Georgia t, lady, Mrs. "cn ton, in ann add ress before t the - ar mers' Convention, picture i'ali such a wife, ground down by exaction, o uncheered by a sIngle, word of ap- dl p)reciation, who, after years of toil and tI striving, dIes, and then to ho for the e first time appreciated.

Th'le man of K experience who hais been through the hi wor'ld, who hits rubbed againist, its s rough edges, has had his obsti nary yi subdIued, his powen's of consideratene~s n onlan'ged and his quality of apprecha- hn tion' so relined that, ho can feel ant' rc- ti snfd to those delicate longings which c arc implanted in the female breast. tF "The man who, In the crowning h y'ears oif his life, takes to wife a fain' young girl, invites her, niot only to tile a condition .of wifehood, but to3 tine t, d igniity of p)artner'ship. lie naturall!y I has aiTfairs to att,end to In whIlih hiis 'I wife takes an interest. 11er powers bi develop ats lion hiusband learns t.o learn c on henr jurdgnment, and thus there is s brought, about, that community of in- v ter'est wInich enapturnes tine piri ncipals ionneerned in it, and then we have the v model hnusba~nd and wife.
