A traveller, from the European continent, is surpi i-trai at seeing so many people dressed in (dark in boih these, countries.

"We were then in mourning fat M-ry, my dear," ttiriarg to her sister, "ior whom were we in mourning, then?" You may easily imagine that the clT ct of this naizale upon tha whole circle Wfis the opposite lo the lugubrious. A proper regard for our departed inen is, sh.owti by external signs is undoubtedly, becoming for a civilized man, and agrees with our feelings. I Jut if mourning is carried fo such an vxlcn! as in England arid ihe United States, it h is t o more meaning Istsri the g i ig into m turning of a court, ordered by a high chamberlain for some prince or princes of a distant dinasiy to which tree mourners are not further rch.ted (Inn by rhe use of the word cousin betaten the ruling heads. Besides, it ea-ises a state of things which may serioudy interfere wi'.h the whole life of an indiviuu il. A female is born to be married, marliage req iiics previous acquaintance, and as things now stand, acquaintance canned generally take place without social iutereour.-e ; mourning however, throws a young lady out of society. I have known families in w hich voun !adies com i:. ued to wear mounting for some very di-tant cousins from their feeideen.a year to their twenty tir.-t; a very f;r;o'i alfur in a country where Indies cease nuch t-arlier to be considered as floating on the fail tide ofmarriageMcness than in other parts of the world.
