VOL XI--NO. 3 9 . . A Spartan Marriage. Many of.the laws of Lycurgus, ihcon 'neckion.withthissabject would undoubt -edlximeet4with the approbation of the .fair.sbx of modern .time. The time for ' , Marriage !was fixed,by statue, that of the !roan atrabout2o or 35,years, that of the ladrat about 20 or a little younger. All men Ache continued unmarried after the appointed-' time, were liable to, prosecu tion, and all , old bachelors were prohibi ted from being present at the public ex . - !ereises,if ; the ,Spartan maidens, and 'were , denied the usual respect and hon. ors: paid to .the aged. ." Why should I glve•yon place,l! cried the young man to the old unmarried gentleman, "when you have no child to give-place to MB when I tun' old ?" Marriage petitions were given to any of the maidens, so that neither poverty should prevent a gallant nor'rfchee teitipt bin' to - marry contrary 'to his ihclinations. The parents of throe 'children enjoyed considerable immttni lies, and 'those with fear children paid no•ttixed Whativer=a regulation when all married men with large fainilies will a really admit to be' not wise and quite ble. 'Every marriage was precided by a betrotfial, as in other Greek cities, but the inartiage itself was performed by the ,young Spartan carrying off his bride by :pretended :abduction, rind for some time ti!fietWiird the Wife continued to reside with heeown faitily, and only met the busband on stated , o'Ccisions.
