We put it to our uontemporaiics there
fon, whether they arc not doing society
and public morals a serious injupy in thus
throwing an air of romance around runa
way matches.
If mercenaary marriages were as fre-

in-iance, wouiu prove iuu any oi tue
lovers, if the hostility of fathers was un-
ju.-t; for time would prove that the lover
had j roper business capacity, or had per
manently reformed, or was in other re
spects worthy of hi-s coveted bride.
We are satisfied that tho great major
ity of runaway marriages owe their origin
to novel reading. Silly girls peruse fic
tions of European life, where parents
really are cruel, and uot perceiving how
different American life is, persuaded
themselves that their father is a tyrant
also. Oitoti they go further, by falling
iu love, according to the orthodox novel
r i,
fashiou. with some lack a-daisical dandy,
i'a love of
a man,' as nursery-maids say,
or with a whiskered roue, whom they pro
fess to be able to reform, but whoso vices
make him all the more interesting, as
they diil iiviou's heroes and liuiwer's
Paul Clifford. Others think it romantic;
