Every net, from the opening prayer to
the foru'uiiof adjournment, was intend

sectional hates and so to prepare the solid

party thrtf would pay most for them —

that they might be kept away from temp

like piiuccs, and have white men to wait

A general rush for their white hats

A backwoodsman promised to send
the minister fifty pounds of sugar for
marrying him. Time passed on, and
ister’s^houseliold. Some months later
be saw the newly-mr.rrfed husband in

Intemperance, apoplexy, gout, hydro
cephalus, tiff-vlions of the heart and
liver, scrofula and paralysis are far
more fatal to males than to females.
Consumption, h. wever, is more fatsf
to the latter. The married state is
favorable to prolongation of life among
women. Although there are J^flyp-two

females, yet there Is umro than six
