A Lady in Fashionable Circles de scribes the Etiquetto of Marriago Why Women Wod--h ow Husbands are secured for anxious Girls. 'eto York Herald's Paris Leller. PARIS, February 10.--There are in France different ways of marry ing : first, the mariage do conven ance ; second, the mariage d'in clination ; third, the mariage de raison. These :elong to the rogu lar course of events. The three irregular courses will not require to be analyzed. They are the mariage de la main gauche, (left handed marriages) the mariage in extremis and the mariages mixtes the latter between persons of differ eut religious professions. It is ex tremely difficult to ascertain which is the best to recommend. Men who have had only one wife have naturally only tried one way, and, as a rule, generally complain of it. When I have come across widows or widowers who have had occasion to try two or three different ways I have noticed that the one they once fancied was the worst proved the best after all. Women who have married young often throw no light on the subject, but the deceased husband is always spoken of as a superior kind of man, and even as the best of men, whereas widowers never go off in raptures about their defunct wives. A HAPPY FUTURE STATE-COMPARATIVELY. If the dQad could speak we should know whether matrimony really is a blessed state, or even a state in which a man may be blessed. The following is some what, detrimental to this theory. A lady had lost her husband, but she had left off her mourning and went to parties. Being asked by one of those gentlemen who attend soirees as mediums whom she would like to sec in spirit, and having replied, "My poor James," the departed suddenly rose out of the centre of the carpet, as it were, and stood before the whole company: "Oh ! James, tell me, are you happy?" "Very." "Are you happier now than when on earth ?"' "Much happier." "Then, James, you must be in heaven ?" "No ; I'm in hell." This is, I am aware, a digression, but it illustrates figui atively the difference between marritd men's state of mind after they have given up their moral flesh and that which prevails before marriage. MARRYING FOR FORTUNE, FOR LOVE AND FOat NOTHINo. I will now explain what is im--. plied by the different sorts of nmatrimnony above mentioned. The mariage de convenance is one where the chief points considered are p)osition, fortune and family. The age of the contracting p)arties is no object at all ; seventy may wed seventeen. The marnge d'inclina tion is one where love has joined the hands and hear'ts of a hopeful couple without any consideration of means. The mariage de raison unites persons of ripe age, ripe ex.. perience and comfortable income ; persons who cannot get on without some one to sew on their buttons, thread their needles and make their coffee ; persons who, feeling no inclination for each other, neverthe4 less expect that wvhen the ring has been p)ut on that particular finger1 they will be propped up as they go down hill by the partner who bears up longest. A FRIEND OF THE FAMfILY. Whieer of the foregoing wa a1 be adopted no marringo can ta e place without a mariouse. A marieuse is a fiend of the family w~ho has no interest in making up4 matches beyond that of enjoying it. She introduces single men to single girls in a spirit of amiable solici. tuide for their good ; the men are usually "charming fellows,' whom she may have met at the seaside and who have confided in her; the1 young ladies have been out of school1 or convent for half the last season. These affairs are generally commenced with a conversation. in tefollowing style Abetween.a mariuseandthe. young lady's mother :,.. "Are you anxious, my dear Helene, that Bertho should make a grand match ? You know she has only an income of 30,000 francs." "No, providing Berthe marry a man who knows how to present himself in society and he have a good temper." "Then I have a husband for her ; he is thirty-two (this moans forty seven); ho enjoys excellent health (he weighs 280 pounds) ; he has a good name, never snores, &c." "He will do," replies the mother. The day this gentleman is intro diced, Borthe is told not to bite her nails when her gloves are off; she is'not to talk nonsense either. The two futurs simply meet and look at each other. From this day the 'nariouse lives in a fairy whirl of visiting, shopping, advising and accepting attentions until the wedding day rises, when she shares ahnost as many honors as the bride herself, while the bride's mother keeps in the background. NOT TO BE DISPENSED WITH. The marieuse is equally indis.. pensable for a mariage d'inclina tion ; but in these cases the love., sick couple are the first to seek her and implore her servi es. She is entreated to soften the hearts of parents who are opposed to the folly of "such a match." One of the two is going to jump off the Arc de Triomphe or Bastile Column or over the Pont des Arts. The father on the one side and the mother on the other will not relent A marieuse never has a hard heart ; she reasons with the young people, but cannot resist their entreatie.s, and goes from. one quartier to another, mov ing all the powers she can, until lfaire de.caur ends before M. le Maire. The mariuse in case of niariage de raison is usually the lady who presides at the tribune of a private cafe or the keeper of a select boarding house. Parties who marry par raison are spinsters and bachelors, persons who, when tired of their solitary selves, turn to cir culating libraries, reading rooms, tables de hote and cards in the even., ing. The mistresses of such estab. lishmonts become their confidantes, receive their small gifts that camn mence with a bouquet for the desk on which account books are kept, and return favors with the husband or wife for which the flowers plead. A marieuse sees no harm in any of the different plans followed. She finds an appropriate something to say to all her proteges and always gives sound advice. A few samples will exemplify : "Remember that there is but one invariable rulo in married life-a man and wife must dine every day." "You will not always be in love ; matrimony comes after such aestacy like smoke when the flame is out." WHY PEOPLE MARRT. The indifference of young men in regard to matrimony can only be compared to the eagerness of maid. ens to become wives. The chief inducement is la soiree du cont rat -a party given on the eve of the wedding, when. the marriage act s read before the assembled relatives md when all the stipulations con.. :terning the "dot" are made known. rho trousseau is then exhibited. Some marry under the regime de la :ornmunante, or common purse, but naany consider it improvident, and thers marry under the regimec dotal, md the wife's dot is only alienated n cases prescribed by law. Then ~here is the corbeille do marriage, ~ontaining the diamond necklace, * he earrings, the laces and Indian ashmnere, not to speak of other gifts. shawls may be out of fashion, buit hey are always included in the orbeille de la mariec. soMETHLNG TO DE MARBIED FOR, The proper cashmere has to be ought at the Union des Indos, be ause that is one place where an.. iestresses and grandmothers wvent, or theirs, and because the Union los Indes, at the corner of the Rue )rouot, has the specialito of bride's renuine camel's hair shawls, just as ,ho Fidele Bergor has the specia lit. >f drages for christenings. A shawl f this kind, with the stamp on it, is me of the rights of wedded life--a hing to be married for. After the soiree and the corbeille come the nesse chante, with a melting "salu aris" b)y the opera tenor ; the al-' ar decorated with flowers, a strip of Sarpet extending down the centre of he nave ; the beadles in knee breeches and silk stockings and langling moire ribbon sreamers ; '- mze of .lighted tee-s and. Strain of white satin three noltros long. 'Desides-all'- this theOr.
