In this country marriage is, by law, f fin(i intermixed marriages of the wor

j'lurality.of wives was allowed ny
Moses, and has been admitted by the
Tahnudists ; and 'Jewish harems, of
their J Minces particularly, were some
times extremely- extensive. Accord
ing to the modern Rabbis, though
st rictly- legal, polygamy is not practi
cally convenient under "the chosen
people's'' filtered circumstances. 'In
the tenth century, A !., at a great
council, it was formally declared abol
ished. The Koran gives' four wives to the
believer on earth, besides the less sub
staid ial houris of the future paradise.
llesiod advises thirty as the lowest
at which a man should take a wife,
fifteen as the f -mininc nuptial period.
An old adage thus lays down the
proper dns lor wedlock : "On Mon
day, for wealth ; Tuesday, for health ;
Wednesday, the best day of all ;
Ihuisday, for crosses; rnday, for
losses; .Saturday, no luck at all."
Other marriage superstitions may
1m? mentioned. It is lulieved that the
huly who reads . the marriage service
through, or she who completes a
patchwork, quilt, without assistance,
will nerei be married ; also, that it is
unlucky for a bride, about to go to
church, to look in the glass after she
is completely dressed. Therefore, the
custom is that she shall put on a glove
or some other ailicle, after the last
look in the mirror has been taken;
also that it is lucky if the initials of a
wedded couple spell a word.
-Marriage among the TJiirmese is a
mo?t peculiar institution, and the
"marriage knot" is vciy easily undone.
If two persons are tired of each other's
society, they dissolve jiartnership in
the following simple and touching,
but conclusive manner: They respect
ively light two candles, and, shutting
up their hut, sit down and wait quietly
until ihey are burned up. The one
whose candle burns out first gets up
at once and leaves the house (and for
ever), taking nothing but that he or
she may have on at the time; all else
then becomes the property of the other
party Troy (X. Y.) Time?.

8 In Eix-land no male can be married
under the age of fourteen ; no females
under that of twelve. Civil marriages
take place, on due public notice of in
tention before a Registrar, but more
geiu-rallv in a place of worship. It in
n church of the Protestant Episct pal
denomination, public announcement
of intention must be given by the cler
gymen, during morning worship, on
tliree successive Sundays. This is
called "publishing the banns," and
larriafe can bo ceiebra:cu in cmsicu
between eight o clock in tne
and noon. In a marriage uy

license, which costs about eleven uoi
lars, the banns need not be published.
Py a special license, which costs $150,
a marriage may be solemnized in any
church, without notice and at any
hour, and even in a private house.
In Austria, bride ami bridegroom
must each have completed the age of
fourteen. In Pa varia, the legal age of
marriage varies, for males, from four
teen ttTeigliteen, and for females from
thirteen to fifteen, in different districts.
In liaden, the law allows a man to
marry at eighteen tmd a woman at fif
teen ; but the consent ol parents is
necessary until they have respectively
completed the ages of twenty-five and
twenty-one. Consent being withheld,
the young people cannot apieal, as in
Aus'tiia. In Saxe-Coburg Ootha, no
male can marry before he is twenty
one years old. Females may marry,
if they have been confirmed, at the age
of foil! teen. In Denmark, the ages
arc twenty for the man and sixteen
for the girl. The Minister of Justice
may dispense with the rule. In
France, no men marry before eighteen ;
no woman before fourteen. Under
the old monarchy, the ages were four
teen and twelve." liy the ancient laws
of France, the age for a male was
thirtj, and twenty-live for a female.
In Hesse Darmstadt the rule was that
the man must be twenty-five ; but thist
was reduced seven years ago to twenty-one,
and the number of marriages
has much increased in consequence.
There is no limit as to the girl's age,
it being left to the parents or guar
dians to take care that no mere child
is wedded. In Greece, males cannot
marry before fourteen nor females be
fore twelvj years of age. In the
Ionian Inlands, now a part of (J recce,
the age is sixteen for the male and
fourteen for the female. In Hungary,
the Catholic (or sacramental) mar
riages are regulated by canon law,
other marriages by civil law. Under
cannon law, the ages arc fourteen and
twelve, and minors cannot wed without
the father's consent. The civil law
also fixes twelve as the earliest age at
which a girl may mairy. Men cease
to be minors at twenty-four and women
at sixteen. A minor's marriage, with
out paternal consent, is null and void.
In Italy, the legal marriage is above
the usual standard, being eighteen for
males and sixteen for females. In
Lapland, the ace is fevtnteen for
males. In Norway, no limit of age is j
required. In Sweden, it is twenty-one
for males and fifteen for females. In
tne Netherlands, eighteen in the
of males and twelve for female
Portugal, fourteen for males and
twelve for females. In Prussia,
eighteen for males and fourteen for le
males, and a late law has made inar
liage merely a civil contract, like the
leasing of a house. In Itoumania. the
ages are eighteen for males and fifteen
for females. In Saxony, the limits of
age are eighteen" for males and sixteen
for females; in Spain,

A IU umno Island. Some thirty
five years ago there tp e:rei I in the
Aleilitcrrannin Sea a little Uhtinl
thrown ni by volcanic action; it was
in fact, a crater, from which steam
and cinders were still issiiinj; to tlie
height of several hundred feet. The
sjH-ctacle was a very grand one as
witnessed by seamen, the eruption be
ing accompanied by a lud, roaring
noise, and discharges of forked light
ning within the ascending column of
hot steam ami cinders. About four
months after this tlie spot was visited
by a J?rilish frigate, having on board
Walter Scott, who was on his way to
Malta in search of health. The vol
canic action had so far ceased that lie
was able to land and examine this little
dependency of iieat llritain, and,
having an interest in anything out of
the common course, he d'-cided to do
so. Mounted upon the shoulders of
a stout sailor he rode almost to the
top of the island, where he found two
dolphins a:id a robin, all dead, no
doubt from the hot temperature. On
one side steam w as bubbling from the
ground, which spread itself all around
the base of the island, surrounding it
as with a cloak. The atmosphere,
strongly impregnated with brimstone,
was almost suHbcating, and if a hole
was dug in the ground, it was at once
tilled with boiling water. Shortly
afterward the island disappeared as
suddenly as il sprang into existence
in a night.
A r.M:n-MAKi.(i Smi.kii. Spiders
have been noted so long as spinners of
the finest of silk, that it strikes one a
little oddly to think of one as a paper-
maker. Hut hear this Hue story that
lias just been told mc:
Jn the heart of Hie African Conti
nent, where no other paper is manu
factured, the spider paper-maker does
her quiet work. Hack and forth, over
a flat surface about an inch and a half
square, on the inside wall of a hut, the
spider slowly moves in ma 113 lines and
the square is covered with a pure white
paper. Under this .die places from
forty to fifty eggs ; and then, to fasten
the square of paper more securely to
the wa!l ; she makes a stiip of paper
about a quarter of an inch broad, nnd
with this glues the square earelully
around the edges.
When all is done, the spider which
is quite a large txie places herself on
the center of the outside of the little
flat bag so carefully made, and begins
a watch, w hich is to last for three weeks
without intermission. Apparently the
young spi(U-r would have many dan
gers to fcar.did not their anxious inam
ma wage a fierce war upon the cock
roaches and other insects that come
near. AfW three weeks of unremit
ting watchfulness, the mother-spider
leaves her nest in the day-time to hunt
food, but she always returns at night,
until her young are strong enough to
take care of themselves. i7. Xieholu

A GKNTr.F.MAN who "knows all about
it," and has tried the experiment with
entire success, recommends the follow
ing remedy for bunions and corns,
from which so many suffer daily : Ob
tain at the druggists five or six cents
woith of saltpetre, put it into a bottle
with sufficient olive oil to uearty dis
solve it. Shake it up well and nib
the inflamed parts night and morning',
nnd more frequently if painful. This
is a well tried remedy.
