When bent,on matrimony, , look more
than'skin deep for beauty ; dive 'farther
than the pocket for worth ; and search
for.teniper beyond the good humor of the
moment—remembering it is not always the

the most amiable partner for life. Virtue;
like some flowers, blooms often fairest in

Fanny' Fern went recently to hear The
'adore Parker, (the elbolitiohist,) who
•en
tertains an ,
audience every Sabbath day at
Now Music Hall. Her impressions detived
from the occasion are thus stated :-
• "Do you call this a Church 7 Well, I
•
hoard a great singer here, a few nights ago,
i.and bright oyes sparkled, and waving
i plumes kept time to moving fans—and op
era glasses, and ogling, and fashion and
folly reigned for this once triumphant. I
can't get up any devotion here, under these
lattied balconies, with their fashionable
• freight. If it.was a good old church, with
a cracked boll and unhown rafters, a pine
pulpit, with the honest sun staring through
the windows,, a pitch-pipe in the gallery,
and a few hob-nailed rustics scattering
round ou the uncushioned seats, I should
feel right; but my, soul is in fetters here—
it won'{ soar-its wings Are earth-crippled.
Things aro too fine. Nobody can come in
at the door whose hat and coat. aro unfash
ionably cue, The poor man, minutia Bun
day,suit, might lean on his staff in the
porch a long while before he'd dare venture -t
in to pick up his crumb of the bread of
life. •But, thank God, the unspoken prayer
of penitence may wing its way to the oter
nal throne, though our nmelting .cliurch
spires point only with aristocratic fingers to
the rich man's heaven.
:The byinit was, beautifully read, there
•is pocitry in the preacher's soul. Now he
takes his scat by, the reading desk—now ho

,his hymn
