CONCERNING MARRIAGE. The Bev. £ J. Hardy, who has con■titvtei himself Gh&pt*in--n-Ordinary to Cnpid, ism~3 a new book 'Concerning Marriage.' like hia ' How To Be Happy Though Mart.eJ,' it consists largely of a se.-ies of amusing anecdotes', some new, others not bo now. That he gives plenty of gcoi advice, interspersed with bis fan, is certain, bnt we f< athis entertaining Irt'e vslnme will bo more read for its wit than for its wisdom. The wedding ring has been likened to tha old Koman circus, in which Christians {ought for the amusement of those outside. Mr Hardy tells the story of a little girl in Ireland who mi asked what was the sacrament of matrimony. She said: 'lt's a state of torment into which soals enter ta prepare them for another and a tatter world." " That," said the enrate, "is pargabcry; pat her down to the bottom of the class.' " Leave her alone," s id the parish priest, 1 for anything yon or I know to the contrary, she may be perfectly right." In Mr Anstey"s latest book, a genie says : " He that adventnreth npon matrimony is like one that potteth his hand in in a bos containing a thoßsand snakes and one eel. Yet tiie gods may so will that he draweth forth the eel." Sir John More, father of the Chancellor, Sir Thomas More, was fond of this saying, and Mr Hardy begins with it in his cbaptr on 1 Whom to marry.' The assent cf the other party if, of coarse, assumed ; Mr Hardy it not an advocate cf marriage to the tfxtent of recommending the matrimonial enthusiasms cf certain savage tribes who open negotiations with a dob. It is after marriage that civilised man resorts te his club. " Courting," said an Irishman, "is like dying. Sore a man most do it for himself." This is a delicate topic on which Mr. Haidy is both informative and amusing. TRESPASS NOTICE.
