This question scems to agitato the younger portion of our community, as I soa that tho quiet shoot, the Jnler-Occan, containa quite a number of theso offusions from yonag aud probably inex- perienced enthmsissta, I trust you will permit mo to give expression to my ideas on this sub- Jject in your valuable paper. Tho average young man of this city is op- posed to marrisge for many roasone, snd thoso reasons I shall tey and give as plainly as posai- Dble, 5o that I may not bo underatood ss giving fales opinions on tho eubject. } ©Of conrsa the principal and all-absorbing res- ®on is *‘moncey.” 'Chis entera fnto tho quextion at the very outset, a8 no young man of commou wonse will think of marrisge without. fu somo ‘wav, counting the coet of this oxpensivo lusnry. » The modorn smunu man looks nt #ocioty around him, and what does Lo soo?

Now, aro these girls fit for wives and mothera? No! Empuatically, No! This is what the young man sees around him. Now theso giria are woll enouch to talk to for & nioment, but not tomarrv.
