In default of a public announcement of a be trothal, people in the habit of watching the ac- tors from evening to evening may tell by one infallible sign when the happy climax is reacued. As toon as the swain ma to pay the young } aay’s reckoning in addition ca own. pend on it they are engaged. Up to that time the maicen’s ‘Gansebrates bas been reck- oned at the close of every evening with the oc- count of the family and paid for by the fond ent; but now the burden has been lightened. he fature ton-in-law meets his sweetheart’s expenses, but them alone. Even if there be nobody else with them but the mother, she always pays }er own ‘bill. Night after night one may eee at the same restaurants a young man pay fc: himself and his sweetheart, while the worthy matron just as regniarly is left to the rescurces of her own purse. If the three visit the theatre he purchases s.all for two, while the mosher takes her piace in the queue, and looks out for herself, and the rule is scarcely ever broken. If it be said, on the one band, that the mother having shufiied off the responsibility of her daughter’s entertainment, ought to be satistied with that, it may be urged, on the other hand, that in viewof the fidelity and regularity ex: pected of a German lover, the support of the young lady is in itself enough, and he ought not to = —, adage the mother Ss least until after the marriage. Young people engaged are expected to pass three headred be sixty-five evenings a year in each other’s so- ciety. if they belong to the middie or poorer classes this phenomenon is generally witnessed atchesp beer houses and ge-dens, varied in summer by an occasional rural excursion. if they bave a more exalted ‘ition in the so- cial scale, there will generally be facilities for entertaining the victim at the home of the in- tended, and for beer gardens they will now and then substitate a concert or a play. Bat, the full quota of evenings is always rigorously ex- acted. Berlin is fast outgrowing slow matrimonial machinery, The cpomay of the mother and the harmless arts of the daughter are giving way to the more simple and more expeditious system of matrimonial agencies. An Engiish reader would have some trouble in conceiv.ng the progress made within a year or two by that extraordinary business, and not even # German cen forecast its future possibilities. Itis not enough that there are women who, in seductive advertitemen.s, make known their benevolent purposes, and who, in modest apattmants and in @ private way, bring the anxious together. Not even the slender veilot that degree of pra- dishness is now thrown over the traffic. There are now great offices, with their m nagers, their matrous, their lodgers, and b‘erarchy of cierks, and which offers applicants of either sex their choice from two or three hundred candidates. They issue their catalogues, like the old book rhops, and omit no importaut details. Thus the candidates will be classified something like this: “Two bunured and fifty maidens from the Lourgeosia, 175 widows from the same class, 9) maidens avd widows irom the aristyeracy, with fortares, &c.:"” and on the other side, tlemen, merchants, and that class, 1¢) nt offcials, 50 country landowners, & recently the business has risen to the gnity 0: an crgan of itsown. The Matrironial Journal, issued weekly, contains the advertisements of these agencies as well as of candidates them- selves, notices of books, and miscellaneous matter weil calculated to set forth the beauties of married life and to encourage the waver. ing. SAVING THE Corres GRrovnps.—As common- ly mace, the infusion af cofiee which we drink Contains not more than 20 per cent. of the sab- stances which compose the berry. Of the re- maining 80 parts, which we throw away as “grounds,” about 34 are woody matter without nutritive value. The rest, or 46 parts out of the Lnndred, contain in large’ proporv.ons nitroge- nous matters, fats and minera! salts, demonsira- bly useful for the nourishmentof nerves, muscles aud bones. In other woras, by our mode of mak- ing coilee we lose more than half its available and valuable constituents. Considering the tons of coffee imported every year, this wholesale wastefulness becomes a matter of considerabte magnitude, this of course only on the condition that the rejected matter can be used with profit. That it cau be so used is shown by the Turks, tho make coffee as we do chocolate. The eoffee, fhely powdered, is drank with the infusion. In this way all thestimalating qual- ities of the infusion are secured, with the full aroma and all the nutritious elements of the berry. Itis perhaps needless to add that, for use in this way, the cotfee must be reduced t> an impalpable powder. To those unaccustomed to use oriental coffee, the limpid infus.on may seem much tobe preferred. As @ stimulating drink, it is undoubtedly preferable, but the good qualities of coifee are not exhausted with the intasion; and as @ matter of economy, it may be worth while to sacrifice limpidity for nutrition. Besides, as one becomes accustomed to thick chocolate and learns to like it more than the clear infusion of the cocoa bean, 80, it is claimed, the taste for cafe al’ Frientale may be acquired, with a corresponding improve- ment in the breverage. CULTIVATION OF SMILAX.—Mr. J. Vick than whom there is no better authority as a florist, rape the following directions for the household culture for this plant, now so much used in floral decorations, for twiningin .he hair and trimming party dresses: With little care it can bead age successtully a3 a house plant. The seeds should be sown in a box or in pots In the house, and should be kept moist till the young plants appear. The seeds being rather slow to germinate, you must not think it bad if it does not make iis appearance in two weeks. The young plants should be potted off into three-inch pots as soon as they are three or four inches high. Once a year the bulbs should be allowed to dry off and rest. They will start into growth again in about six weeks. The vine does not reqaire the fall san, butit w''l grow well in a partially shaded siuation. It can be trained on @ small thread across the window or around pictures. It is a climbing vine; and will attach itself to a string in just the right condition to nse, for wreaths, etc., or when required for lighter work,the brauches which become entang!ed can be Says the Detroit Free Pr 2 old mau and his wife who came in by the Central road yesterday about thirty hacks at mornin, the door of the depot, and about thirty hackmen shouted ‘hack’ at them.
