That every young man rA the age supposed ought, or in fact hai a tnoral right to get married, is not only vary doubt* Tpl,.but will admit of an unqualified•. denial.

If such a young man is determined to be miserable himself, he has no right, either moral or civil, to involve another, and particularly a female in sadness, disappointment and misery. But on the contrary, a young man of correct morals and industrious habits, sustaining, and deservedly so, a good reputation in society, settled in respectable business, with bright prospects of continuing in it, with a good degree of energy and persevereance--even if his captial be small, and the profits of his business not very large; yet if his income be a little more than sufficient, when prudently managed, to support a small family, the best intererts of society demand it.

Young man, you are not sure of being to-mor-row what you are to-day you know not what templations may be thrown in your way, nor how far you may, at another time, give way to inducements that have failed to lead you astray. The abiliiy to do good, or avoid evil, at some future day. Is no more within our control than are the swift-

And this, it frequently happens is not the case, when a man marries at an advanced age. Hut if he declines marrying when young, and dwindles along to forty or forty-five, he becomes a testy old bachelor, dissatisfied with everything, and finding fault with every body. He finds himself no longer the favorite of the ladies. He scolds about the married state, yet secretly regrets his hard fortune and that he did not marry when young. From a desire of revenge, he praises the blessedness of single life, yet he is at the same time determined to marry. hit or miss. We say

You cannot be happy atone, and you are alone, tio^mattw if you have the-aociety of father, mother, brother, sister, you are alone, alt alone without a wife.

Wellington's Foneral.

.- *«f*

The solemn and imposing obsequies gf. 4bef Duke of Wellington were closed on the I8tfi of November.

Thebodyof theGrand Doke was visited by 65,073 persons, on Wednesday, thelast day of Us lying to state. On the day of ihe interment the whole city of London was closed to eyary thing ex cept beholding ibis imposing spectacle. It is estimated that one and a half (minions of people at least saw tbe procession as it proceeded from the Morse Guards to the Calhedrai. The streets were so crowded, at an early hour, that multitudes, who bad paid high prices for seats at the windows, 00 balconies and on tbe house tops, were unable to make their way to these desirable positions. The pnoe*sioB commenced forming at half past 10 o'clock* bpi'ore the last of the cortage be^an to move. The houses on the line of the route exhihhibited flags at half mast, or other symptoms,f',f

drapery of black silk velvet. The funeral car was of bronze, and looked m**^ magnificent. It was drawn by twelve gray horses, exactly matched as to size and action, caparisoned with black velvet trappings.

The interior of St, Paul's was grand and simple. It was briliaotly illuminated with gas. The floor waa covered with black cloth and in the centre was the grave. 'When the coffin was borne up the isle, tbe effect produced upon the vast assemblage was that of indescribable sorrow.

The last act of the drama is thus described: The foreign Marshals and Generals stood at the head of the coffin: at the south side of it stood hia Royal Highness Prince Albert, with the baton of Field Marshal In his hand. Si attired in full uniform, standing a little in advance of a numerous staff of officers. At each side of the coffin were British Generals who had acted as pall bearers. After the psalm and snthein. the Dean read with great* solemnity and impressiveness the le«on. 1 Cor. xv. which was followed by the Nunc Ditnilii, and*fc dirge, with the following words set to music by Mr. Goss:

The plate on the Duke of Wellington's coffin, bears the following inscription: 'The most high, mighty, and most noble prince Arthur. Duke and Mnrqui.1 of Wellington. Viscount Wellington of Taluvera and of Wellington, and Baron Douro of

Ilentitifnl Funeral.

A recfrht letter from Acupulco, thus describes the funeral of two sisters—beautiful girls of eighteen and twenty years. They were carried to the grave in the evening, side by side, in an open funeral car in elegant dresses which they had made with their own hands for the Spanish ball which was to liavp taken place on the evening of their burial*: The oar in which the corpses lay was splendidly decorated—rising, above the heads of each a beautifully gilded orown and at their feet gilded ornamental work representing two half moons. In their hands, which were locked to-

wreaths of roses. The faoes of the young girls were uncovered but. partly oonoealing their magnificent dresses, was thrown over them a richly worked laoe* veil, covered almost completely with offerings of flowers, while their little tiny feet, encased in pluutcolored silk stockings, aud satiulaced shoes, were slightly exposed to view. The ear was borne on the shoulders of twelve negroes: iollowlng iheni, six others, with the' top of the burial case and following the latter still, six others with a labia* upou which the oar was set down ia the street at intervals.

In a few months the Jeweller's Journeyman, as Deputy Attorney General of the county of Philadelphia. acting from a tiigh-mi ided and proper sense of delicacy, transferred to the Attorney General himself, the Hon.

From a variety of causes nothing is tnorc common than to find American women who have not the slightest idea of household duties. A writer thus alludes to this subject:

In the neglect of household carcs Atfierican women ptand alone. A German lady, no matter how lofty her rank, riever forgets that domestic labors conduce to the health of body and mind alike. An English lady, whether she be only a gentleman's wife or a duke's, does not despite the household, and even though she has a housekeeper, devotes a portion 'of her time to this, her true, her happiest sphere. It has been reserved for our republican fine ladies to be more choice than even their monarchical and aristocratic sisters. The result is a lassitude of mind, often as fatal to health as the neglect of bodily exercise.' The wife irho leaves her household oares to the servants pay# the penalty which hna been aflixed to idleness 4inoe the foundation of the world, and either wilts away from ennui, or is driven into all sorts of fashionable follies to find employment for the mind."

o„r Literary Milkman.

*s!A few year* since a poor boy of middle Tennessee, who frequented the Nashville market in the humble vocation of a chicken speculator, was noticed on each occasion of his coming to town to visit the office ot a lawyer, and lesve with a book under his arm. At this time this poor boy is one of the proudest and most distinguished Judges of our sister New Orleans.

It caatiot be tbat our life is a bubble, eat up .by the ogean of eternity, to float a moment on its waves, aid sink into nothingness. Else why is it that the lijjh and glorious aspiiraiibb's, which leap*, like angels from the temple of our heart, are forever wanlering about unsatisfied I Why is it that the rainbfv.and the cloud come over us with a beauty that^is not oh earth, and then pass off and leave us t* muse on their loveliiress? Why is it lhat tbo starts bold their festival arottnd tha n.idnight throne, «hd set above the grasp of our .limited faculties, brever mocking us with their unapproachable glory And, Anally, why ia it that bright forms of human teauty are presented to our view and then are lakeii from us—leaving the thousand streams of our aflVbtions to flow baok in Alpine torrents upon our itarts! We are bom for a higher destiny than that if our earth. There is a realm where the rainbow sever fades—where the stars will be spread out befae us like islands that slumber on the ocean and there the beautiful beings which here pass before ut like shadows, will slay in our presence forever.-r£«-

We allude to the matter only to correct the apprehension sometimes entertained »hat small notes make small ohange more abundant. This wo think a mistako. As no one asks for notes of a hjss denomination than one dollar, of course the fractions of a dollar me made neither scarcer nor plentier by the use of paper dollars. As to gold dollars, there is no scarcity of them 7Vy

It is quite unessential that a man should be 'handsome.'' Let hiin pray the gods, in the first place, to make him a gentleman gentleman at home as well as abroad. Let him stipulate for a fine figure and a courtly manner, and leave It to their discretion after that, to shape his eyes, nose and mouth, provided they don't make them perfectly hideous.
