EDWAUDLCAn. ,n Ul0 grcat family of humor, of which thcre are finy branches, Mr. Lear's uenens seems te Drisir from the same btecic as iranK Stockton's. Lear gives lis nu absurd alt nation In verse, relying purely en its ab surdity; Stockton gives us the same in prese; though Stockton's situations are noticcable for constant bordering en the real, and have a bearing that has net been usually recognized, being doubt less satires en novels of the realist school. However, this latter cannot be considered, Blnce Stockton's situation)! are clTectlve within themselves. In'Lcar's It is intend. ed te add te the effect by means of the cuts. Here is a specimen: There una an CM Man of 1 1 je Nile, Who sharpened hla nails with a flip. Till he cutoff his thumbs, aud said iiiluily: "This comes Of sharpening ene's nails with e flic'" Thcre Is certainly room for u charge that there is nothing funny in this, ami it puts a strain en ene's sense of humor which unless that sense Is at the ex ex treme of acutcness, the cfTect is lest. That the humor, or what we choeso te call It, is thcre is manifest from the pleasure given te certain peeple, and we have no mere right te say ft Is net there because we de net see It than no have te say a bird does net sit en n distant limb which seme ene with keener ejesthan ours tells us is there, though our vlslwi cannot discern it.

M. bolen A. Adams. It docs net appear nt first bight that there is any great encomium In the state ment that n man has dene his duty; but it depends largely en what that duty is. Mr. Solen A.

Among the nnrlcnt Assyrians nil mar mar mar rlaoable young girls were assembled at ene place, nnd the public crlcr put them up for nale ene utter the ether. The meney which was received for theso who were handsome, and consequently sold well, wea bestowed ns n wedding portion en theso who were plain. When the most beautiful had liecn disposed of the mere ordinary looking ones were offered for a certain sum, and allotted te theso willing te take them. In ancient Greece the lever was seldom, favored with nn opportunity of telling his passion te his mistress, and he used te publish it by inscribing her name cm the walls, en the bark of llie trees In the public walks, uud upon the leaves of books. He would decorate the deer of Iter liouee with garlands, nnd make liba tions of wlne Were It, in the manner that was prueticcd In the Tcmple of rNinld Accerdlug te Dr. ltnyea, courtship among tlie !quliniiux hies net much tenderness nbeut it. The match Is made by the parents of the jouple. The lever must go out nnd enpture u Pelar lear ns nn ovidenco of his courage and strength. Thnt accomplished, hosneJks beldnd the deer of his nwcetheart's heuse, and when she comes out he pounces upon her und tries te carry her te his deg sledge. She Hcreams, bites, kirks nud breaks away fiem hltn. He gives chase, whereupon all the old women of thoscttlemcut rush nut nnd beat lier with frozen strips of seal skin Sl falls down exhausted, the lever lashes her te his slcdge, whips up his dogs, dashes swiftly ever the ire7ctt snow, und the wedding is consummated. The Australian lever Is btlll mere laek Ing In tenderness, If the statement made by Mjers Deloy Is true. The lever makes up his mind as te which woman shall lie liU brhle, and then hides In the bushes lu the vicinity of her dwelling. As seen ns bhe comes near the spot where he Is con coaled he knocks her down with a club, nnd carrlei her off before she comes te. If he does net get her te bis hut before she recovers thore Is likely te be a lively fight In the bu&h, for the Australian damsel Is generally n v Igoreus ene, and may have reasons of her own for objecting te his at tentions, Tholevermny then be obliged te club her again, uud us that is considered te be semewhat of a reflection en the ardor with which his earlier effort was made, he is upt te put ns much soul nud muscle into Ills first leve tap ns he can hummen. In seme parts of Asia the question of a man's tltle te u brlde must be Bottled by a llcrce light between the friends of the contracting parties.

If her friends ure victorious, he must pay Mich prlce ns llie victors do de inand All ever tbut country seme cer cer cer cmonyef vlolence or exhibition of phy elcal power must precede n wedding. Some natlve tribes Insist upon a feet ruce between the Inlde und llldcgtoem te do de do eide the question of marriuge, and ethers require n long chase en horseback In Aome sections of Asia the lever must innv oil his brlde cm lilsb.uk If he reuches his hut with her, there can be no pretest ngalnst the muulage. railing in that, he must pay her patents for her lu cattle The willing brlde makes no out cry, the unwilling brlde louses llie whole village, the residents of which trv te res cue her. In the Isthmus of Darlen either bcx can de the ceuitlng, while iu the Urkraltie the girl generally attends te it. When hhe falls in leve with u man, she gees te his heuse and dcelares her passion.
