It is all very well for poets to tell,
BY way of their songs adorning,
Of milkmaids who rouse, 'to manipulate cows,
At five o’clock in the morning;
And young mewers who bundle out doors,
The charm of their straw beds scorning,~—
Before break of day, to make love and buy,
At five o’clock in the morning.
But. between me and you, it is all untrue—
Believe not. a word they utter; >
To no milkmaid alive does the figure of fire
Bring beaux—or even butter.
The poor sleepy cows, if told to arouse,
Would do so, perhaps, in a horn-lug; _
But the sweet, country girls, would they show their
bright curls,
At five o’clock in the morning ?
It may not be wrong for a man in the song——
Or the moon—if anxious to settle,
To kneel in wet grass, and pop,-but alas!
What if he popped down on a nettle ?
For what could he see what was undcrhis knee,
If. in spite of my friendly warning,
He went out of bed, and his house, and his head,
At five o’clbck in the morning.
It’s all very well, such stories to tell,
But if I were a maid, all forlorn-Eng,
And a lover should drop, in the clover, to pop,
at five o'clock in the morning:
If I liked him, you see, I’d say, -‘Pleasc call at three,
If not I’d turn on him with seaming,
“ Don’t come here, you flat, with conundrum like
that,
At flvc o’clock in the morning.”
The Foes of chlock.
The first step toward curing an evil is the
indication of its cause. If it be true, as we
hear it often repeated, that the marriage in-
stitution is coming into disrepute , that young
men avoid it, that an increasing number of
those who do not avoid cease to respect its
laws and purposes, and undermine its foun-
dations while they sustain its superstructure,
it is worth while to ask what there is in our
modern views and practices to encourage
such a state of things; for there must. be _
something, and something that is neither lo-
cal nor incidental. The common explana-
tion is that our extravagant habits of life
render marriage impossible at the period
when it it is most attractive and desirable,
namely, in youth. In a word, young pcOv
ple cannot afford to marry. Well, if they
cannot afford it, they will not do it, as a
rule. We all know that weddings are few
in hard times, and it is better that they
should be. It is certainly a foolishness, and
it comes very near being a crime, to incur
extraordinary expenses when ordinary ex-
penses are only too heavy. But they who
are in this predicament are seldom in it for
a long time; and while they are in it they
casino despite upon marriage. They would
marry if they could, and the prudence that
forbids .their marrying forbids their living
unregulated lives. Most of those who prae ,
ticc celibacy on the pretext of economy are
persons who could afford very well to marry
if they would be content to begin life with
simple, honest, wholesome 0 fort, to bein-
creased as life went on. Bu they must have
everything at once. They must start where.
their parents left off. They must dash away
at top _ speed, with horns blowing, and with
streamers flying, and the eyes of their fash-
ionable friends looking admiringly on. It is
not prudence that rcstrains these people. It
is not thrift or foresight. It is simply vani-
ty. They love their pleasure too much” to
fercgo any pbrtion of it for the satisfaction .
of matrimony. Love in a cottage, or 011 a
flail or off the Avenue, is not to their taste.
They must have love and an establishment.
Moderation and matrimony are seldom in-
oompatable. Magnificcnee and matrimony
generally are.
Extravagance, no doubt, is the grand foe
of wedlock. But extravagance has its cause,
and that cause is the love of pleasure. This
is a predominant feature of our society, not
of our’s peculiarly, but of our’s more pe-'
cnliarly than of any other. Matrimony
stands immediately in the way of this pas-
Sli)ll. It restricts freedom: it limits the free
range of desire; it divides the, purse; it di-
minishes the means of indulgence; it in- ‘
yolvcs care; it implies thought for others;
it suggests self-restraint and denial; allvery
unpleasant things for bright young hearts -
to, contemplate. There are delights to be
given up, and things undelightful to be ac-
cepted. In our community pleasure is open
'10 all. Everybodyaspires to opulence,if he
does not have it, and thinks luxury his right.
Imaginations are heated, and desires are
glowmg, opportunity is various,' and gratifi-
cation is close at hand, and the brilliant liv-
ers set the example, which is infectious.
Through all chasses,,weleCk pulls in these
gaudy kites. Child-birth is painfuh It mars
beauty; it destroys bloom; it takes away
the softness of the flesh; it renders the wife
less attractive tothe eye than the- mistress
was. The mother must stay- at home in the
nursery instead of going to the opcra,the
theatre, or the ball. She must watch her
children when she would rather drive with '-
her husband, and must hear them cry when '
she would infinitely prefer hearing him read
or talk. Children are expensive, too; the
more of them there are, the fewer pictures
and bronzes. There must be the fewer laces
and jewels, the fewer cloaks and hats, the
fewer journeys, the fewer dinners, and}, sup- .
pers, and merry—makings. And no. child-
birth is avoided, if possible, bylgonest means,
but, these falling, by meangsdishonest. The
poor find the doOrsteps f" the; rich a-con'ven-
1ent substitute for foam] ing hospitals where
these do rot exist. ' The 'j‘ich find other less .
cruel means of delivering moment's from
an incumbranc‘e which interferes ‘with the
enjoyment of their existence. "These enjoy-
ments may not be coarscor low; they may
be refined or intellectual; but whether they
be one or the other, they are enjoymeuts, ad
arc prized as, enjoyments. And as eagle};-
ments they have the effect to render distaste-
ful, the cares and duties of married life. .
They prevent young people fromientering
into wedlock, and they tempt, them, 11,», Ving .

VB“. behind this p-‘I.
Lnother feeling which we are deeply con-
vinced is working against the institution of
marriage. We call it a feeling, for with most .
though with ,
it is little more tharr'a feeling,
many it'is a faith 'and a philosophy. Faith,
philosophy, feeling, whichever 1t be, it
amounts to an assertion of the claimg not
to say the perogatives of instinct on with
equal sanctity with those of conscience. The
element of passion has come into honor; and
as the law of the passions is lawlessness, it
is not strange that it should inaugurate its
new dispensation by spoken as well as un-
spoken protest against an institution whose
design and effect is to submit the strongest ‘
of all the passions to regulationby calling in
the authority of the State and the decree of
the ChurCh to sustain its pretentious. All
institutions and usages are assailed by those
powers of license with vehemenee propor-
tioned to their antiquity and their repressive
character. But‘no institution confronts in-
stinct so deeply and so imperiously as this
institution of matrimony. The doctrine of
clective'af‘finitics meets with no more ‘at its
hands; and the disciples of the doctrine are
summarily consigned to the worst pcrdition
it has at its disposal. One wife, and abso-
lute fidelity to her, “ in sickness and in
health, in sorrow and in joy, for richer 0.1
poorer. for better forzworsc,” is the matrimo-
nial requirement, and a very hard require-
ment it is for eager, craving, restless, fickle
human nature to acquiesce in. Attraction
does not pull steadily in such long and nar-
row ways. The charm ofvariety makes it-
self f‘clt. - Stolen delights will be snatched
at when possible, and quick-wittedimagina,~
tions will always be ready with good rea-
sons for seizing and enjoying them. There
is a rush for Indiana. There are long files .
of divorce cases; separations are frequent,
and concubinage, outside of wedlock and in- '
side of it, is so common that it is rarely men-
tioned. There is no denying or-concealing
the fact, that under our principle of liberty,
which adopts human nature, the lower ele-
ments in it which have from time immemo-
rial been repressed by arbitrary rule, make
hold to arraign the rule that has repressed
them, and insist on their right to obey their
own law of impulse, regardless of conse-
quences, ' Oneida communities and such
like experiments are legitimate outgrowths
from this slimy region of our theo —and-
they have their genteel parallels in Civilized.
socicty—which will practice what it will
never avow. It is a phrase of our social ex-
perience which we must pass throu h, very .
disagreeable, very disgustingfivery aTarmina, .
but incidental after all, and transient. We -
have no fear that marriage is about to be
abolished. It has too many friends among
the wise and prudent to be exposed to a r
dangerous peril. l
- ‘ ‘They made her a grave too cold and damp
For a soul so honest and true.”
_ WK they had been wise, the dire neces—
srty of opening the grave for one so lovely
might have been averted. Plantation Bit-
ters,1f timely used, are sure to rescue the
young and lovely, the middle-aged, and the
ailing, from confirmed sickness. ’
. Almost all diseases have their beginning
in some slight difficulty of the Stomach which
would eventuatc in Dyspepsia, Headache, '
Liver Complaints, Night Sweats, Consump-
tion; Death. Plantation Bitters will prevent
these premomtory symptoms, and keep the
blood pure and the health good.

liven the miud. ’

N 121‘? FAMILY SEWING MACHINE.
THE
Singer Manufacturing Company,
Proprietors and Manufacturers of the world renowned ‘
SINGER SEWING MACHINES.
The superior merits of the “SINGER” Machines
over all others, for either Family use or Manufacturhig
purposes, are so well established and so generally ad-
mitted, that an enumeration of their relative excellen-
cies is no longer considered necessary.
THE LETTER “A” FAMILY MA CHINE
hitherto manufactured by this company, has gained and
maintained, the world over, and for years past, an un- ,
paralelled reputation and sale. But notwrthstanding
the excellence of this Machine, we have now to an- t
nounce that it has been superseded by our
NEW FAMILY MACHINE,
which has been over two year; in preparation, and
which has been brought to perfection rcgradless of
time, labor or expense. and which is now confidently
presented to the public as incomparably the BEST
SEWING MACHINE IN EXISTENCE.
The Machine in question is simple, compact, durable
and beautiful. It is quiet, light-running and capable
of performing a range and variety of work-never be-
fore attempted upon a single Machine, using either
Silk, Twist, Linen or Cotton Thread, and sewing with
equal facility the very finest and coarsest materials,,
and anythinw between the two extremes, in the most
' beautifuliand substantial manner. Its attachments for
Hamming, Braiding, Cording, Tut-king, Quilting, Fell-
ing, Trimming, Binding, etc., are novel and prartfcal, ‘
and have been invented and adjusted especially f
this Machine. fl
New designs of the Unique, Useful and Pupil
Funding Tops and Gabi-net Cases, peculiar to the Ma-
chines manufactured by this Company, have been pre-
pared for inelosing the new Machine. These are got-
ten up in every variety of wood, such as Black Wa'nut,
Mahognany, Rosewood, and the like, and from the
plaincst to the most elaborate pattern and finish—the
machines themselves being more or less highly orna-
mented to correspondwith the Tables or Cabinets for
which they are intended.
But a faint idea, however, can at best be conveyed
through the medium of an advertisement of this Par-
agon of Family Machines, and we therefore urge every
person in quest of‘ 9. Sewing Machine, by all means to
leading rival machines before making a purchase. A
selection can then lie-made under-stapdin 1y.
Branches, or agencies, for snpplym g t e “Singer"
Machines will be found in nearly every city and‘towu
throughout the civilized world, where machines will
be cheerfully exhibited, and auyxnformatxon promptly
furnished; or communications may be addressed for
