Westminster Review. A MARKET FOR WIVES. In the district of Bernie Sonar, a mountainous country, inhabited entirely by Berber tribes of Mo rocco, there is one place where, duringthe fair, a bar ter of a very curious kind takes place. This fair is held only once a year, and is chiefly *netted to far the purpose of bachelors finding wives married men adding to their matrimonial treasures , and maidens or widows getting -husbands. In fact, the whole alfilk resolves itself in the women selling themselves; but to escape the ignominy of such a procedure, the traf fic is carried on in the following manner:—Each lady desiring to erter into wedlock, dresses herself in hem best and most becoming attire, anct taking with bee a piece of cloth of her own weaving. sits down u n veiled in the market-place. The men, both young and old, who are candidates for matrimony, parade about ~dais market examining the texture of the cloth displirjed by the ladies. and scrutinizing at the same time their looks and behaviour. Should the . cenumerbepleased with the maiden, he inquires the price of the cloth:' - she replies by naming what she would expect es dowry, and the amount of this she raises or del renes acccmding as the candidate fur her -heart ;dews her, resetting to the demand of an exorbitant sum should she beavers.. to the purchaser. During this bartinthe enamored swain is able,in some degree, to judge of her temper and character. If they come to artegree ment, the parents of the girl are applied to; and they have the right toassent or not, as they please. they assent, the parties atourn to apublic notatY, the contract is made, and the.porriessed bride is in rued offto her new home. In this traffic. widows am at af low price in general, and divorced ladies yelltheir cloths very cheap. The wife thus purchased case. . be resold, however much the purchaser may esrpese4 his bargain. She is his lawful wedded wife, and se tains the purchase money, which is her jointure or-, dowry.
