When he smites, the love smitten , the love smitten hearts, are helpless victims before the bond of matri mony. But, if true affinity has not met, in the love smitten hearts, how serious are the consequences of such a divided union ! People of tender ye.irs are natu rally drawn into the matrimonial meshes, before the riper years of experience have asserted them selves, and hence, many people have matried before they were fully developed, in judgment and physi cal manhood, or womanhood And often, their folly became manifest, when too late to retract. Many a clergyman has been so highly censured, aud often fined for uniting juvenile lovers, in the bonds of matrimony, Hence, dur ing Pattison's first administration, nearly all the clergy of our state petitioned the Legislature to pass a law for their own protection against censure and fine, by irate parents, who so strongly protested against clandestine marriages, that parties desiring to be united iu matrimony should first procure a license from the Courts, before they could be united in matrimony. Any clergyman, Alderman, or Justice of the Peace, uniting in matrimony, without the propor license, any persons, desiring to be thus united, are amenable to the lavv, and sub ject to a heavy fine. Iu fact, such marriages would be null and void in our state. Hence many young people go out of their own state, to be united in marriage, in another state, where no such license is required. Is this right? Is it just? Does it treat the clergy of their own state and perhaps of their owii denomina tion, with due respect, atul courtesy? Can they feel the same hearty welcome, or joy, when their own pastor visits them, from whom they ran, to be united in another state by a clergyman who has no claim upon their sympathies or well being? or who cares nothing for their future welfare. But is it not also ignoring the laws of their own state, and tor whom the laws were enacted for their own protec tion as well? Then again, people going to an other state to be united in main mony, either to avoid the law of license, or for a pleasure trip, will get from the ofiiciating clergyman, a loose marriage certificate, which if it should get lost have no means of confirmation of their marriage, which is often so very importaut in many cases. People getting married under the laws of our own state not only get a marriage certificate from the ofii dating clergyman, but there is a court record of it, in addition, which can never be lost or eradi cated. A marriage is a very solemn step and seals the destiny of every in dividual that enters upon it, for better or worse, so long as both shall live, is a thought that should be well pondered before taking such a step. All ofiiciating clergy men should impress the sanctity and prestige upon the applicants, with a well established marriage cere mony, whose influence will be felt throughout life, at least, if the per sons so united are proper subjects for the marriage altar.

"When she walked through the snow she kicked tt from very de light, and when she got into the uir she fairly skipped. A man would have dropped and dragged his feet along as he walked. "1 believe that it is all due to the diet that women have. Women stand nervous strain better than men, and in hours of trial they ent more. "A sort of extra sense tells them that It is time to keep up their strength. This same sense also tells them that they will need the littlueuco ot! their beauty.
