Huppoee feur, or flv^ or ten, or twenty, other queens trtod to sit upon the tame throne with Victoria— how much prosperity in England would thee be? Just as much aa there will bo happiness in any domes tic establishment where more than one wife tries to be queen,, God In tended woman to be man’s equal, but in t he polygamous state that is impos sible. The whole implicatlop is that it takes ten or twenty, or thirty wo men to be equal to one mau. It Is very complimentary to the toon, but not to the Women 1 All that poetry about man’s being the oak and wo man the ivy is Hat, and stals, and un true. In tens of thousands ease# men in commercial dletwter-Rqvo been flung flat, and they have gone to their homes utterly discouraged, readv to give up the struggle of life, wishing they were dend—although when a man says he wishes be were dead he lies ; try to kill him, and see how much he wishes he were dead—still going home utterly discouraged, and The wtfa. bf her prayer and faPjf to God, has civeu him encouargement, and told him never to mind bis mis fortune; that there was some other way of escape, and planned this way and the other, after awhile, by her courage, lifting °him up a^aln into commercial prosperity, When a man likes any place better than his own home, look ouHpr break ers. How can you toll whether a man loves bis home better than other pla ces? lly this infallible rule—a in to always stays the mrst where he liKes U the best. Oue man out of a hundred may have so firm a will and be so Con firmed in his morals that he may spend every evening for forty yaars away from home und yet be pure and good and honest ; hut the nlnety-uioo out of a hundred will go down under the process, and the years will ba merelya pair of Htalrn to let theta down iutolm- mofallty and Into death. A Woman Is surprised that she has not aa much at tention paid to ber now as before mar-1 rlagc, as when the man wasasMppUaut, candidate for her preference. Perhaps i there might be a retort, and she might' be asked If she took as much pains to take away out of your prefcence tbe beet friend you have on earth, and tbe richest boon which God la Ht« omntp- but ho oteftce and Infinity has capacity to be stow—a good wife. If a child gc, that desolates the nursery. If the wile go, that desolates all the house, and all fb& heart, and all the world.

Tbe night dead. The air dead. The world dead. Ob l mao, if in that hour you think of any unkind words uttered; you would be willing to pay in red win of. blood every drop from your heart if you oould buy bock the tinktod words ; but they wfll not come back. Words gone from the Upe do not fly In circles like doves coming back to their cote, but in straight line, a million miles a minute, across tbe extremetlse. They never oome back.

They lived to weep over tbe grave oSf three of their children. They lived to pass through many hardships and trials, but they kept the Cbrtstlaa faith; they lived for God, for each other, for theiseMMrcB, and for everybody but UivoNritree.

M >ru people tu thin coun- | tty than ever bofore believe In thU duett iue, aud thate are those la all parts of tbe Isa 1, some under another name, and some none at all, practicu- 1 ig it. The B.ble rdeoculz-.s polygamy just as i: recoguli-.-s all other styles of sin, but in no case eauctious it. On the couttary, God expressly thunders In the book of Leviticus : M- itber sbsll a mau take oue wife to another ; while St. Paul puts squarely before the usliou this passage 1 Let every man have Lis own wife, and every wo man her own hu<band. How was It when the children of Israel were pas sing through the wjl L-ruess 1 For forty years theie were 2.5oO,000 Israel ites on the mutch. God especially looked after them ; led them by jdilar of cloud by day and pillar of tire by night, slaked their thirst from Heaven —especial y looked after tliem—and in all the forty years, among tbe 2,- 500,000 IsradKos, there was only oue case of poiyuamy. Does that look us though God sanctioned it? No such crime attaches to Adam, or Noah, or Moses, ir Abraham, or Joshua, or Simuel, or a hundred others I might ment ion. Who was the flrst polygam ist mentioned in the Htble ? Lamek, he, by hie own confession, was u mur derer. And wherever in the Bible" you And a man with more than one wife, you tiad him up to his neck in trouble ! The whole drift of the Bi ble is against polygamy. G id paid at the beginning. If. is no.t good for mau to-be alone • I will tnakd a helpmeet for him. Mirk yon, the singular .number—a helpmeet. If any one ever Mncliine (^••Tijgedva Hi ore ftran —orrer - companion ■ certainly tiiat Was Aiiam, for there was mv society outride. God was Mere in LJcu btai iiug the iiiet-lfuuou of ma: riage, and if plurality of wives had been right that fact would 'have been demostrated, ami instead of one rib taken from Adam’s side. Adam would to hive a rib Mt! The race was to be bridged over the deluge. How was it done ? How many wives am' the wives of his sons. If poly gamy had been riebt, there would have been twenty wives for each, and so save a multitude more from drown- tug. The census of thl world presents tbe fact that in all ages and in ail lands tho men and the women .havei been about equal in number, and where there has been any except! m to that in any land, or in any age, the men have been lu the maj >r4y. Does that look as though there were a sur plus womanhood ? Does that look us though the Creator of the human race sanctioned polygamy? The Bi ble 4s not mere thoroughly agaiost theft, and blasphemy, Sou murd<r than It is against polygamy Moreover, whenever civiiizitioo i*la hhrh ad vonce, and whenever good aioi<U* are first month of your acquaintance?— 1 be fact is that many wumes make their ehat tn« a net for onsnaul, and ufter tbsy have wade that Lsdl they throw ttrw net away. Ht-fure marriage you could play on the piano like a Thalberg or a 0»>ttrehalk ; now you cannot (day at all. Though you have b<*en together slxiv year* you ought still 10 be the bride adorned forher husband. Or do you spend tbe even ings fretting about the servants, or de cry tug the fact that you 1 neighbors have it better than you Lave, or pick- lag at your husband's faults, put ting him in a sort of Infant class over which you are the supetvlsur, when you ought to make home aamaO Leav en to his pertuthed spirit.

Oue intelli gent woman has mote attractiveness than twenty intelligent men. Again, 1 remark, corrupt literature Is a powerful fo; to the domestic rela tion. I refer to those slushy pam phlets and bookawhich tell how im possible men married Impossible wo men and got Into imposuiblu difficul ties, and with impossiols results, and viliany went unwhipped, und virtue fell dead. I mean those hooks. The fact is that many of the young mar ried people of this day get their heads so lilied with the false and sentimental notions la regard to the plain, serious, old-fashioned institution of marriage, they are unflt for the common duties of life. There she goes, louog ug about the house with a flfty-cent novel over her arm, her slippers run down at the heel, the furniture uudusteri, und the socks undurned, and every- a very U-ndar-busnad mao, 1 never caw him cry but “ace, and that at my mother’* burial.

Go home and gather up all that French}', infernal stuff and pitch It in to the kitchen Are, lest it blast you and. damn your children after you.

As I suppose the raoet of you had booora- -bto-aoeeutryH l woaiAo sweae -yotr to day by the cradle in which you were rocked, and by the family altar where you knelt, ami by the family Bible out of which you were instructed, and by the gluves of your parents—if they have gone to their long sleep—to war against evetything that would bring thu marriage relation Into disrepute.— The best eulogy you can pronounce upon it. is by making your own home relation right and beautiful. Do not lake 1 ffeuse too easily from each oth er. Buinember that hasty words and hasty action sometimes are not a mat ter of the heart, hut merely a matter of tbe nerves. Husbands at the store, worn out with anxieties—wives at home worn out with household cares — sometimes have their tqyipolse of spit it unbalanced. There are but few Amuican men or women who have any nerves worth speaking of. These deli cate telegraphic wires of tbe human body get damaged in the storm, and the lightnings of temper run over them very irregularly. A^d> remember that this relation wilt sodn end.

A lues in oue business may be repaired by a gain in another ; a miscalculation tl is year may be re- tiicvtd by special care Me next; a bad uartnersblp may be dissolved, an lu- ju~y repaired, a wrong step retraced.

Let fully la a World of snares, aud take beed to tbeir steps lest^lu tbe most critical event of life they go fatally astray. But here we must guard against an other error. Many people think they have made a mis uke iu marriage, when tbe mistake is only In their own behavior-“they-were Tnarrtud.— Good husbands make good wives, and good wives make good husbands ; and the scolding or intemperate, or slat ternly partner often has but himself or bersclf to blame for ths misery that clouds the life and desolates the home. Multitudes who feel that their mar riage was a mistake, and who make their existent*! a life-long misery, ought, by a little self-denial, and for bearance, and gentleness, and old-time courteey, make their Lome brighten Uke the gates of Eden, and bring back again the 0I1J love that blessed the happy golden days gone by. Suppose the wi.’e does not know quits so much as you do ; well, yon • bowed your great judgment when you thought her the chief among ten thou sand. Or. if your husband Is not ths most wonderful man in tbe world, It simply Illustrates the wit ahd wisdom of the y oung woman who ooce thought be wsl, and could not be convinced of tbe cootray. So perhaps you arc not -0 unevenly mated after all; and If one bas bad better opportunities sites married, then of course Met oue should teach aud cultivate, and encourage the other, aad *o both j jurney on togeto Ncheal Trwstsea.
