The Responsibility of Society for the Perils Attendant upon Wedlook, 'Do you think I could marry on my incomeo P was tho quory of a young gontloman vory woll known in fashionablo clrcles in one of the Enat- orn citfos. Tho question was put to us; and, as bis {8 a typical cnse, bearing upon the pronent muchi-discussed question of tho unwillingness of tho prosent gonoration of young men to assumo the caros ‘and resfionaibilitios which such 4 posi- tion requires, ft'may bo worth looking at, Our intimato agqunintanco with tho querist gave us o knowlodge of tho following facta: Incomo of the eaid young Ian, £3,600 por annum, moatly oxpended'in cigars, nook-ties, opera-tickots, car- riage-hire, Delmonico-dinnors, oto. “Ho Iived at home, ‘so thore wore no board- bills to poy; ond ‘‘tho govornor,” as this dutiful young gentloman called his patornal relative, gonerally furnishod the chooks to pay bis tailor and bootmaker. A fortnight in the country, with a little mild croguet, a littlo more onthusinstio German, moonlight, and oppox- tunity for a certain amount of spooning (for, as his fathor was rich, chaporones wore convon- iontly blind),’and this young goutleman found or funciod himuel? 4 QUITE ‘' goNE" on Misa Blancho Milloflours, b This young girl, Jiko the avorago of Amoriea; girls, had boen finished at & fashionable school, and waa now {ntroducod luto socioty to catch o forlune if she could, but to marry and make room for tho next sistor before hor second sea- son. Milleflours was roported rioh, but . he know that it took every cent of his income to support his family, and that, beyond a littlo prosont of silver, his daughtors ‘would be portionless brides. Btill, straight from 1bo achool-room to the altar seoms to be consid- erod the bost of good fortune for such girls s theso. Without a singlo idon of the cares and rosponsibilities which thoy must assume, thoy are allowed by their olders to accept thom. A thousand difforent rensons may influcuco such a decision ; but, unless the caso Is excoptional, it scoma & pity that it should ever bo permittod. It is only the vory young who, in their supromo ignoranco, their uttor thoughtlossness, dare, in the present stato of socicly, - VENTURE UFON MARRIAGE. Knowing nothing, they foar nothing; and, while a fow got through the quicksandsand by the whirlpools eafoly, many aro lost,—moro still searred for life. ! Answering our young friend, thon, in true, Yankeo-fashion, we quoried, “Did you eover think of tho wearinesa of posecssion?” An angry retort at the skopticism of some peoplo, snd an infinity of protestations, waa our anawor. He was very youung, and he_had nover thought soriously of “the bread-and-buttcr quostions; and he had Utopinn idens of a hotie nver which Miss Blanche was to preside, always luvely, in 1he most rechercho of toilettos, where ho could invite ‘“the follows” to -dinner, instead of standing treat at Delmonico’s; in faot, just such a lifo as he led at home, with tho extra barriors of restraint somowhat lowered, just emough to make it jolly—tho sort of thing wiich cost his fathor 15,000 or 820,000 s year. Any house which they would have been satisfied with would have taken nourly all his enlary, for they couldn’t go into back streets, nor live in part of a house, Bocicty would drop thom at once under such conditions. Thoy ocould board. You, at o cost (including laundry- bills) of . FOUR-FIFTHE of the young man's salary. Tho ‘young lady in_question has been nceus- tomed to o very liberal supply of pocket-money. Yo want a thing, and have it, have socmed synonymous terms with her. The solf-gratifion- ifon of tho young gentloman in question we havo alrendy alluded to. And yet tho only home open to these people is o~ boarding-house, with its temptations’ to extravugant expond- iture, and a yenr to cover all but the mero cost of living. Isita safo ven- ture? Is it not from just such injudicious alliances a8 these that our divorce-courts aro filled with oj Plicnnts for lognl soparation ? Tho burden of this gentool povorty it too hoavy to be borne, and only in very oxceptional cnsos aro the patures of” thoso Who are thus tried suf- uclcm‘lxatrung, brave, nnd true, to surmount the dificultios and conquer in the ond. Wo are evidently A BELF-INDULGENT NATION, _ uspecinlly the young among us. DBilliards and bevoerages, oigars and meorschaums, are mattors of course {o the large proportion of young men. Hundreds of dollars are thus ex- pended,—justifiably onmough, it lifo was e ophemernl a8 a _buttorflys; bub it is & poor preparation for the cares and duties which will accrue it tho responsibili- ties of marrisge are once assumed, Nor is_tho young lady's upprenticeship any better. Even though hor parents aro only in medium circum- stances, school dutios genorally occupy ail hor eatlier years, and, when sho leaves school, then socioty claims her, BUX REALLY HAS NO TIME to gain any practical knowledge, for it isthe young girls here who make socioty, If papa is o millionaire, eha is waited upon liko a young Prigcoss.

They have never congidered how much more importu- nate and excossive thoir self-love was than the sentiment each experienced for the other ; how oxacting habits of self-indulgence bocomo; Low satiating is possession. That thoy must come Lo grief if they mako the ventura scems & fore- gone conclusion. QOur young gentloman finds that to give np all his bachelor-habits is a much gronter effort than he anticipated.

That wont out with the straight-backed chairs of our graud-mothors. Itisquite possiblo that sho and her daughter’s father may have commonced vory simply, We once hoard a gray- haired old gentloman boaat that, ovor fifty years ago, he aud his wifo commenced housckeeping ou $10, They had but $wo rooms, and his income then was only 2500 5 yonr. But that was over ity yenrs ago ; and oven ho admitted that his wife was never thoroughly happy until she own- od a high-post, mahogany bodstond, and chintz- curtalng for it, ot & cost of 976 or $100, Now, tho substituto for thosa two rooms must bo, for thnt moan's grandchildron, o marble-front house with modern improvements ; and, for the high- poster, oll tho_uniquo furniture that s Fronch- workman oan design and executo. Ba this man's danghter, whon sho sooy her clild grown to womun'y ostato, TAKES TUESE THINGS INTO CONSIDERATION, Human naturo is tho samo; but luxury hog talion tho placo of simplicty, ‘and mosk of our gitls aro brought up in Juxury; most of our {ouug mon in habits of solf-indulgonce, Look~ ng to the end, that mother sces how hard the trial will bo it hor daughter attempts to make a homo of hor own on narrow meaus. She shrinks {rom the misery that sho sces in storo as almost the ingvitable consequence of such s trial, and g0 seoks tho golden menn, if it is to bo found. She ndmits that Tennyson may hove written very fino poetry when he said : Yeal Igoothoe, old and formal, fitted to thy potty art, Wlfl‘llrll little hoard of woxima preaching down a daughter’s Leart, 2 They wero dangerous guldes, the feclingu; she horsol was not exompt, Truly sho berself lad suffered, Torlsh {n by solf- contempt! - But the world is not poetical; it is VERY RUGGED IIOSE at times ; and it is tho world ns it is which sho hias to do with, not ag it ought to bo, no doubt.

It would appear in many cases to bo as haz- ardous for the vast army of clorks whose means raugo from 1,000 to $4,000 a year to many, as for thoso who are belter oiff. They may ocensionnlly eecure tho proper holpmate, and be thomeelvea ready {o accept life's respon- sibilitics ; but usuaily they admire the stunning girl, havo thomseclves the ususl amount of Diasiculine vicos 3 and are by no meaus roady to resigu them, or commonco home-life with tho quiet young girl who drosses plainly and son- sibly, whon sl is to bo found.

Bimeon's pillar, sho would chango hor gown twico or thrico a day, if her wardrobe pormutted. Aund it is, attor all, only tho esthetic part in fominine naturo. It i the craving sftor tho beantiful; tho samo instinct that, difforently dirccted, heugs flug . pictures on drawing-room and ohambor walls; plants. rare flowers in gardon plats, and reads clovor books with deop onjoymont. 1 is unronsonablo to supposo that Evo continunlly woro the ouo fig-leaf garmout that has beon so much commended on tho scoro of simplicity and cconomy. If thors woro any othor trees in Eden, she undoubtedly em- ployed thefr foliage in hor vornal totlettes, and Eden was nover Lden to hor if hor wardrobo consistod of & solitary apron. There aro o many fasolnations in the art ot good dregsing that it is not strange women are onchained by it. To bogin with, tho stufls they use nre so enticingl Just compare their eilks, and eatins, and velvots, and lacos, with the moltons, and tweods, snd boavors, and cassimores of their brothers. Iu it any wondor that the beauty and richuess of the formor aro seductive, whore the lattor aro not oven at- tractive? It is almost enough to lurn an ordinary mind to be destined by Nature and society to tho wearing of theso regal fabrica. 'Lhon tho combinations to bo made of them ; the ingenuity rtoquired ; tho nicoty of dotail; the delicacy of oxecution. To take a ploce of cloth; to cut, to plan, to devise, to sond it forth tho perfact cos- iume; ohl there is much that is charming, bo- sldes tho woaring, in tho art of dress. MUSLIN TATH. Dog-days are hore in full force, and the ques-. tion now i, what not to woar, instoad of what to wear, At tho watering-placas in this vicinity, which are_tho real motropolis ot this season, overybody is dispensing a8 far as possible with overy doscription of outer garmont, nud using 1ho lightest kind of hats. 'The Chinoso-shaped hut, brim andno crown, made of n fing, glodsy kind of rush, nro decidod favorites from their lightness aud coolness, Theso are goner- ally covorod with puffs of sheer muslin or ruching of crepo lisso ; have palo rose or blue- il ruchings under the edgo, and some loops and onds of the samo volor on the apex of what should be the crown. These half-muslin hata aro oxtremoly dainty, and itisn wondor thoy Linve not boen morouniversally worn, - Of courso thoy are only fitted for warm, brght days, and for country wear, Coolnoss, dawpness, and city grimness are their thoir nntural foes. A fow lown and Chambery bate, drawn on mttans, aftor an aucient and approved model, have been seon, and they are becoming and oxtromely comfortablo. But, alosl tho art of muking them is known to fow, and_so, unless a positive mandate in thir favor be forthcoming, they will not be widely worn. Two lavely hnts, worn atarecont croquoet- party, aro worthy of record, The first was of nlternate rows of muslin and Valencionnes fuser- tion nnd odging, overa light French frame aovored with pale-mauve silk, The shapo was something nkin to arovorsod soup-ptate. Cherim was covered to the bana of the crown with a kind of ecant ruile, mudo of the luco and muslin, The rufilo Iy flst on the ontor adge, and baroly gath- ered on the inuer. Over tho crown fell s circular pieco of tha laco and muslin, much resembling a laco hondkorchief, A hittle back of the middlo of the loft side, a coquettish knot and onds of mauve watored ribbon caught the circular korchiof to the crown. This hat was worn with s charmiog dress. The dress was mauve silk, trimmed with rufies of mauve tiesue, headed by ruches of silk. Tho polonuise was of soft mull muslin, elaborately Enlsbnd with Valencionnos and mus- lin_insertion, and looped with watored mauve ribbong, The extreme of care which character- ized this costumo was_marked by diminutive kid shoes over white silk stockings, with raised stripes of mauve. The second bat was puffed orenudy, over & framo covered with twilled rose-colored silk. A ruching of the silk, with an innor rucho of mus- lin, surrounded tho under edgo of the bat. light wearf of tho twilled silk and muslin was tied loosely round the crown, hanging in ends behind, "Tho costume of which this hat was & part was a wrought white Indis muslin. The skirt had one doo) ombroidered flounco (reaching to the knce), so on with n two-inch-wide puff and worked head- ing ; and the polonnise was ombroiderod shnost sl over, and draped by & rose-colored twilled silk sash. WATERED BILK. Watored silk, which was somewhat rovived for dressos Inst winter, bas beon eflectivoly in- troduced into trimmings for late summor and early sutumn toilettes. A black gronadine has six(}:lniml flounces, six inchos wide, each berded by a bias two-inch band of watered gilk, bringlng tho mmmlnfi mmi to the waist. The basque fia doep bolind, and has rovers of the silk, and a vost of it in front. Tho cufls aro of the eilk; a littlo fanocy handkorchiof pocket of it hange tho loft side, and n watored ribbon sash s tiod Ioosely on tho foft eido of tho_tour- nure. A pale-pinkcrope deChineevening-drossia & polonnise of the crope, looped high on tho sides, and hanging long onough behind to form o court-train over a petticont of silk,—alternate watered and plain stripes. ‘The polonaise is opon in front, and has wido revors of the wilk from neck to hem. pink watored sagh, and o kot and goveral long’ stronmers, falling from s poarl bucklo placed inthe middle of tho back, aro the accos- sories of the dresa. It was thought, oarly in the soason, that watered ribbon wounld bo very taking with summer gowns, but it has not been, oxcept for special costumes, go that ita re-intro- duction with watered silk comos almost in the guiso of & novelty. FALRICS FOI DRAPERY, It is whispered that the fondness for soft, drapable fabrics, dovalopod last year, will be fully encouraged the coming soa- son; but that soft twilled silks, ottoman silks, old-fashioned vesting sllks, fine challios, and other materials, not unew themsclves, but new for this purposo, will be used for over- dressos and polonaiscs, in place of ibe long- worn and much-admired crepes. The indica- tiona are, that overskirts will be generally aban- doned for full dress; tho pouf boing employod instend, and wido, rich sashes, gracofully draped, sarving the purpose of covering tho usunl blank botween waisk and trimming. That this will be an arbistio Jm- provoment, all must sdmit; but whoth- er Jt will lossen tho amount of ma- torial used, and therofore bo oconomical, a8 i claimed, ono would rather not say till later, We havo 4o Jong boon promised n rotrenchment in quantity, without unf apparent rosult, that ons may bo pardoned a little skopticism on tha subject.

From the Insurance Age, A curious and intoresting nrticleling boon pub- lishod in the Medical Record, on the longovity and othor biostatic peouliaritios of the Jowish raco, by J, Stockton Hough, M. D., which has attraotod considorable attontion in Jowish ciroles, and will ropay tho porusal of in- surauce mon . gonerally, in circles which aro mot Jewlsh., Dr. Hough's purposs is to show that, according to atatistical evidence, the Jows asa poople possess many poculiar advan- tages as to physical constitution and longevity, which make thom bottor risks for lifo-ineuranco than the mombers of other races. Roughly spoaking, the number of Jows in the world st the prosont momont {8 about seven millions, the countnies whero they are most numerous, ranking ros celivn:(, Austrin, Rusaia, Turkoy, Germany, England, Franco, and last (an in this_ connoction, loast) the United Btates, From an oxsmination of the census statistics of theso countrios, it is found that tho mosn average duration of life among Jews excoeds that of Christians by about five yoars. Mr. Pressin says thore is 161 por cont of deaths among Jows, to 2.62 per cont amoug the general population, Iun France Christiaus live, on an average, 80 years and 11 months ; Jows, 48 yoars and 9 months, According to M. Rlayor, o loading _authority, onc-half of the Chris- ilans die boforo remching 80 years of sgo, Wwhilo, amoug tho Jews, ono-half live to bo 60 yoars old, Of tho former, only 18.4 por cont livo to sco’ their soventicth yoar, whilo of the Intter 27.4 per cont rench that age, ‘L'io fact, thorefore, seems clenr, supported as it it by the bost authioritios in Tranco, England, and Austrin, that Jows live longer than Chris tious, which naturally suggests tho quostion, why# There aro many ressons to account for tho fact, of which we need only mention 010 or two. To begin witl, thero aro fow or no Jowish paupors, aud very fow Jowish laborers or mochanlcs, opgaged in_ mining or ofhor hazardous occupations, Who ever heard of or met, a Jowish stoker or coal-heaver, & Jowinh stono-cuttor or steol-grindor ? They fight shy of all dangerous trades, Yre!amng tho soft goods lino, jowelry, monoy-lending, ~picturo-doaling, ronl cstate speculation, and the like. They also lavo moro rest than Christinus, for they keep both their own aud tho Christian Babbath, and all Christian aud political holidays in oddition to (heir own, thus gotting twico tho rolaxation and ropose that thoir Christian noighbors have. Thoey are also careful observers of very strict dictary, sanitary, and certnin well-known Lovitical laws for tho pro- motion of cleanliogs and the provention of con- tagious disoascs. Karoly do wo flnd & drunken Jew ; and still more ravoly &_Jewish member of mufiuq\l—munde. Indecd, Dr. Hough has no hositation whatever in aflirming that, in this respect, they aro tho most chiste of oll tho racos. Tho fact of women of other racos having nenrly three timcs as many illegitimato children a8 their Jowish sis- tors, indicatos by hiy theory that the latter are throo times as chaste. This, doubtless, has someo- thing to do with tho small mortality of their childron, although Jowish mothors are loss pro- lific than Obristians. But, no doubt, tho great reason why proportionately fower children die among tho Jows than in any other race is, that Joews marry at more favorablo ages, Of 100 porsons, 87 Jows to 29 Chris- tisns marry under 30 yoars of ago, whilo 69 Jowish to 61 Christian womon marry undor the samo ago. In 1,000 marrisges, whore the man was over 00 yoars old and the woman 45, tno gro ortions wore 42 Ohristiang to 38 Jows., Malo irthe, also, predominate more largoly among the latter than tho former, which circumstanco s attributed to tho botter pfiysiaun sud youn gor ngo of nowly-marriod Jows, and particilarly to their consciontious observance of certain Lovitieal 1aws, to which reforonce hns already boon made. ‘There are many other interesting dotnils which wo should liko to touoh upon, such as the ox- traordinary immunity of this race from conta- glous and acquired discases, tho comparative rarity of suicidos among thom, and the fact that there aro far fowor Jows, proportionately, who bresk the laws than Christisns, But we have already oxcoeded the limits nssigned this paper, sud must refor such of our roadorsas dosire farthor enlightenment to Dr. Hough's article on this vory curious, extraordinary, and, in most rospects, mout exomplary peaple.
