In the first case it associa tes, itself with duty, and implies an esteem the more proper and grateful as accompan ied by intimate knowledge. • Li proportion, however, as marriage is of a sacred and permanent nature, produc ing weighty obligations, and liable to spe cial and severe cares or calamities, ought it to be cautiously and deliberately, and pi ously contracted. It is ,not to be viewed or anticipated as, a merely halcyon career; rich as it often is in smiling .prospects and auspicious event's, and Serene as it may be rendered in all that the human creature can control. A childish penchant, a calcula , tion of convenience, a momentary caprice, form no warrant for it ; though they be so frequently the only incentives. Such a bond requires matured and dis criminating attachment; comprehension of its good and evil; resignation to,all chan ces. Butlie or she wholta.s the right in telligence,/feeling, and opportunity, and yet avoids it yielding to selfishness or cowardice, sins against the designs of Prov idence and loses the final reward of coura geous and successful trial. • .It was a favtte remark of Lord Little ton, the younger, that marrirge . is a lottery; and that of course, it is as preposterous to rejoice at a wedding . ; as it would be to ex ult in puiehasing a ticket for the tread wheel. According to the, same questionable an, thority, all opithalamitmis are, therefore, at least premature in their usual strain . ; the adventurer in the cormubial scheme should ascertain that he has drawn a prize, Before he indulges himself in self-gratulation, or welcomes the greeting of his friends. The analogy is not, howurer, exact—because it is in the power of 'the bridal parties to, determine their own fate, in a miiterial Life itself might be equally styled d lottery, • looking to the diversity of its chances, and the ineei'titude of its incidents; but it is nevertheless, a positive blessing with well-constituted minds and healthful frames. So, likewise, is marriage, 'which should be Undertaken as life is accepted---- with stronger expectation of weal than wdl —with bright visions and cheerful resolu tions; but, also, with a spirit of philo sophical or christian submission to what ever Providence May ordain to its course. The Greeks made Hymen descend from, Apollo, Urania, or Calliope. This origin from the fountain of harmony and light, anil the two noblest sons of the muses, il lustrates or shadows forth the true chance ter of the espousals over which the garland ed god waves his never-dying torch, and sheds•his celestial influence. ENGLISH LANGUAGE. W" We extract the following from the Rev..l. N. MArrres Lectures on the En glish Langfiage—its origin, beauty, rich ness and power, which we find in the Bal timore Sun.. Mr. Maffit, iit reference to the English Language, says that the Latin tongue was introduced at the invasion , of Julius Caesar, A. D. 45—that the Roman language prevailed Mail 440, when the Saxon passed over and established their power, while their language gradually blended with the •Latin. This was con tinued until the time of William the Con queror; when a direct effort• was made to ettablish the Norman French; but this fail ed, as the Normans lost their'own language in that of the country. Mr. Matlit then Icoritinues as reads the following : • "The English language 'is the richest of ancient or modern times, but by this asser tion it ia`'not intentled to undervalue the an cient and dead languages:--if the thesis is sustained, an unanswerable argument is de duced in favor of them. The Greek was the. first language .of the arts; the Hebrew of philosophy. we have been debarred from a knowled49 91 the ?Of contained in the early , writings of Greece by the burn ing of the Alexandrian library. Many of the Greek words Seem to be of the Egyp that or Coptic origin. Thcos, in Greek, seems to have been derived from Theo, the Mercury of the Egyptians, and from it we have our Theology. The Greek, is the most perfect of languages-it is invulnera ble;severerterriblesin--affortling—powor—to, invective; conveying all the thunders of 'mint' it is the language of love,'and, un happily for Greece her physical power was gone before her literature . was • estab lished.

As a son of the Emerald Isle, it might be•expeeted that the speaker should all;ude to the Irish. It is a spirit-stirring language, but since Queen Elizabeth had stirckened it out of use, it has fallen into ! disrepute. It is remarkable for two quali ties; first, it is an admirable language for making love ; and secondly, it is unsurpas sed for scolding. The magnificence of the English tatil gunge is finely illustrated in the Scriptures, which abound with pure Saxon. It is learned as the Greek, melodious as thela tin, courtly as the Spanish. Several pas sages were quoted from Scripture to show its plaintive, joyful, sweet and touching powers or expression; The writings 'of prominent men were referred,to for its di versified powers, as Byron,,tatricknenry, John . Bunyan and Washington Irving. It was that tremendous agency with which the orator cati roll up the wave , of public opinion, break fragments from the roclbof intellect; and 'shake the world . with the thuOder of its elriquence; Ibis the garliin which some new thought goes, out into the world subduing the myriads, like .the cede of Napoleon, sustained by the•serried umns of earth's proudest chivalry. 1t makes man the angel of übiquity, 814110111 one moment' everywhere, it:lffilbs the pest) with the present, and present with the.

SoMe factitious and iron-I int remarks were' made relative to the treatment which teachers received_ atAlte., hands of the world, and the speaker drew to a close. In the course of the peroration, 1 , the English language was compared to temple_ built of marble, in which one part cause frotn•one nation, another from ano ther, and harmonizing at length to a beau tiful and diversified whole. -- .

Cod speed the day)" TRIAL nv Jour.—\%o take the follow ing from an amusing natrative in the "Knickerbocker." The writer of it has sat on a jury without doubt: " Did you ever serve on a jury, my dear sir?

But look It the practice, 'Pita mer chant, the gentleman, the man of wealth, whatever be his vocation, disregards, the summons of the court to attend us a juror, and pays his fine becausa he can afford it.

The fright had sobered him and he began to halloo must lustily. "Help! help! for God's sake come and ,help/me ()in. or I'll be buried alive!"
