MARRIAGE A FAILURE.—ANSWER TO

"A MOTHER'S LAMENT." TO THE EDITOB. Sic, —Your correspondent, E. Cobb, bewails Der misfortune at having two daughters that nobody wants. In thid reispect she is not j alone; many mothers in this community ate like her. That marriages in the colonies < are a failure is a well-known fact, and a good deal of the blame lies at the doors of the parents of girls. Tho girls nre cot domesticated; the majority of them think of nothing but gadding about the etteets of an evening in flocks, and if they can raise a butcher or an office boy among them they are set up. Instead of this they should be helpisg their mothers. But I know many mothers say, "Oh, they are no help to me; I would rafchor bave their roena." Something wrong hero. I have sons, and would sooner bury them than ccc them married as I see Jots of yonug zaf-ti inarrj, and before six months are over wish to goodness they Were still single. Take a dozen ordinary marriages, and ten of the men, if they Epoke truly, would say what fools they had been; but they don'fc like to own it. Aud again, girla dress far beyond their station, and this nelps to frighten the youDg mea. I knew one young married woman that bought a bonnet, 27s 6d; also a cape, 60s. Here was a fortnight's pay gone, all but 2b 6d ; nothing left from that fortnight's pay for housekeeping, rent, coals, &c. Is it a wonder the young fellow wished himself single again? Lot me give you one instance cut ot many that l&ave come under my notice, showing how 'thoroughly üßdomesticated some young women are. A young Gouple living next door had a pair of rabbits sent them. When tny wife Sooked in at abent 11.30 Bhe found the young wife in tears, and saying, " I have been all the morning and haven't plucked one." She wa3 treating them like fowls! In my owa case I EeoUon I got a prize, but were I single tomorrow I would not risk it again. To all youtig men I would say : " Think well over it; j unc\ if you take my advica I eau'fc do better j than give the same as Puuch did, and that is, •Don't.'"—l am, &c, December 23. ; . Pateb.

They will thereiove be found eminently serviceable to those who work in iron foundries, copper miues, anil collieries. These well-known remedies present manifest advantages in respect of use and effec- j tiveness, being entirely compounded of vegetable I dr»?s selected'with the greatest rare unrl regardless ...F price. When used in accordance with the ample printed directions which accompany them, they act surely but mildly and do not interfere with the daily work.

For two years and a-half I sulfered much from sick head- i aohe, and seldom passed a week without one or more attacks. Five months a?o I commenced taking your FRUIT SALT daily, and have not had one headache during that time; whurer.s formerly everything but the plainest; food disagreed with me. I am. now almost indifferent us to diet. One quality your medicine baa above others of its kind is that to it the patient does not become a slave, and I am now finding myself abla gradually to discontinue its use. I cannot tbank you sulhciently for conferring on me such a benefit ; and if this letter can be used in any way, I shall be really glad, merely begging that the initials only of my name maybe published.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully, TftUTH."
