The Matrimonial Market"
A SHORT INTERVIEW WITII nit ISSUER.
OF MARRIAGE LICENSES.
As we entered the Mechanics' Institute
a few day's since for the purpose of inter-
viewing 3:11r. Scott in regard to marriage
licenos generally,.we found that gentle-
man severely berating a poor book pedlar
ionngtfhoer.m.erits of the work he was canvass-
" If your book was wortli. anything'?
said the 'Librarian, " you wouldn't need
to peddle it around the country..
have'nt time to look at such works, and I
wish you would'nt bother me." • .
The cross firing continued for some
time, when the pedlar retired in disgust,
without getting. a subscriber. '
"How are marriage licensee," We en-
rinired,.When_we_thought-theold-roan-suf-~
ficiently cooled down to venture the ques-
tion.
"Very quiet, no sales at all," was his
answer; "young men don't seenu to have
any spunk at all these clays,"'
"Whose fault is it that there are not
more marriages, the boys or the girls?"
we hesitatingly asked.
".Tlae boys, of course -are there not
lots of girls waiting for offers," somewhat
testily came . the, answer. -----
Wo confessed we thought there were,
and expressed our regret- that there was
so small a demand for licenses. •
• "You see," continued Mr. Scott, ' "I
have even offered several old baehelors in
town licenses free, if they would use them'
inside of six months, but it is no use. 'It
is sonlething lamentable, the Mamba of
old bachelors in this small place."
• "What remedy would you proliose,"
we interrupted.
f' First of all: I would make all old
bachelors ineligible for the town council
and the bOard of the Mechanics' Institute,
which would, you know, :he a somewhat
severe pimishment,.and I would tax them
double as much as any one else."
Just here, a bashbilryoung max, aceoat-
Ponied by a friend, who seemed to be un-
certain at; to the particular object for
which he •was wanted, entered the room
and shyly glanced around. • He looked
at the books, ,tiirned over a Magazine,
picked.%, up._ paper „And -nearly -upset --a-
chair all in ;ik few- second& 'looked!
from the door to Mr.Scott; then up at the.
ceiling and then at his friend, -By wax
of a change; he took another.squint at the
venerable dealer in, inarriage contracts
and 'another at the dber. •By degrees he
shuffled up to the end of 'the table. and
tremblingly flaked Is this the place
where they sell marriage licenses."
"Yes," replied the :eld man, his coun-
tenance now beaming with a radiant smile,
and every trace of his recent encounter
vith the book peddler having vanished.- .

OBITUARY. -On 'Wednesday last, Emily,
reliot of the late Henry Hands died and was
buried on Filday. Tbeclecease of Mrs.Hands
will recall the sad manner in which IVIrHands
lost his life. He had aniassedj a moderate
competence in British Columbia and while re-
turning from the mountain mining districht:in
1863, he was barbarously murdered by In-
dians orinhuman whites, most likely the tat;
ter. The fact of Mr. Hands being cut off in
this.way prevented any of his wealth from
reaching his widow*, but she, being.ot indomi-
table energy' and having some kind friends
was enabled to retain the homestead to preserve
which her husband ventured in 1850 on his
second trip tothe Pacific coast. Ile was one
