Prof. O. S. Fowler's Lecture on
Love, Courtship. "selection,
and Marriage.
WeiM-rer Hall va tilled almost
entirely 1:M injrlil with an audience
of fair ladie.-. and milium men.whose J
fares were lighted up in eager antic
ipation ol what Prof. Fowler had to
say of love, courtship, and marriage.
The lecture was of great length, and
we are uuablc to give more than a
brief abstract of it. After referring
to the subject of love, at Home length,
and its various influences, he came
Jo the consideration ot the selection
of conjugal companions, and said, in
euhstancc:
The true basis of love and selec
tion is similarity. Nature must keep
her genera and species apart- If the
lion and the lamb were to amalga
mate, I heir i-peeios would be spoil
ed. Yon never knew much happi
utvs to exist between a while man
and an Indian squaw, because their
la'ite are so ditlerent. The savage
man should marry the savage wo
man, the Turk should marry a Turk,
the Christian, a Christian, &c. Not
only so, but the game kind of Chris
tian, the Haptist a Iiaptint, the
Campbellite a Campbellite, and the
Know-Nothing a Know -Nothing.
I Laughter.
I appeal to you to know if, when
you love, you do not love some one
in sympathy with you? There are,
of course, some, exceptions. You
sometimes see a long, lean, lank Jlr.
Stork married to a heavy, plump
Mrs. Partridge. Then you find the
heavy, coarse-grained elephant mar
ried to the fine, nervous and sus
ceptible angol. This is well, because
her over-vitality is exhausted by his
powerful animal nature, and their
offspring is better thau they. This
is a point well worth your consid
eration, for no sin is so great as that
of cuiiug your children with poor
bodies by an ill-advised marriage.
Wherein you are medium iu any
respect you ma' marry medium, but
wherein you are extreme in any
temperament or predisposition, mar
r your opposite. If your hair is a
bright red,. marry a black-haired
woman. If it is medium, you may
marry a shade darker, but if your
hair curls don't marry a lady who
has curls unless they can be easily
taken oil'. Laughter. I think I
have uiHde this so plain who is, and
who is not adapted to you, and this
is the most important problem of
ur Hie.
Men are always the poorest judges
of themselves. The conceited man
is the last to find out his conceit, and
the humble man the last to realize
his humility.
'i. ail some power J In sift'0 Jjie lis
T ouiels as itlicrs sec n.'
IMirenology teaohe. ilii- : there is
nothing more valuable than a knowl
edge of one's self.
To you, young men, I would &ay,
ascertain whether or not your lady
love cau make good bread, for if she
can't you will have to cat a great
deal of dough; and if so, it will be
no matter, tor it will only be dough
heads eating dough. Laughter.
The plain fact is that bread has to
be baked, and you can draw your
inference. Then, again, see to it
that, your lady-love is healthy.
There are two causes of the female
weaknesses of to-day. First, fash
ionable habits; and here I would
My, girls, be healthy first, and then
just as fashionable as you please.
Another is female boarding schools.
They lake our daughters and pack
tlwMu between brick and mortar
walls, and lull them they must not
romp or take exercise, because it ia
not lady-like, and many of I hem are
literally educated to death. The
want of American society is robust,
healthy mothers, and the longer you
live the truer you will tllid this re
mark. The first element of n hus
band is manliness. Willi them, you
have all; without them, you have
nothing. Young ladies, you may
take, it as a fixed fact that if your
beau is capable of mistreating his
washerwoman, he will treat you the
came way.
In courtship, the first great error
of young tolks is lhat they court by
the quarter. They love here a little
mid there a little, whereas the first
law of true love is permanency. A
man may love his wife ever so much,
but if he dallies with other women
it will kill this love for the wile, or
her love will kill the other; it is
impossible for a man to love two
women at the same time. Now when
you whispered love to your sweet
heart, was it uotau exclusive love?
Suppose a lover says, Kate, I love
ou for this, thai or the other, but I
love Lolta for something else; what
does Kate say ? Why, she tells him,
"Away with your love; I don't
want it." Be careful when you be
gin to love, and unless marriage is
our object, do not continue iL
Young man, don't dare to call out
the affections of a young lady unless
on can make her your wife. Her
love is her life, and you have no
business with it, unless she i your
prospective wife. It is a dangerous
Ibiug to trifle with a girl's allec
lion., and there is not to much fic
tion about broken hearts as you
may imagine. A lady, Mrs. Aver,
had two pigeons which she kept in
one cage with only bars between
them, and when one of them was
taken away the other flew about in
prison in great dislies and finally
fell down dead, and a subsequent
. examination showed that its heart
was actually burst iu twain. So of
a young lady who was disappointed
in love. She refused to marry, and
lived a life of devotion to her first
love, though she was years in re
covering from the shock of her
disappointment. At her death she
requested that a post-mortem exam
ination be made, and that post
mortem showed that there had been
au actual suudcring of the heart. 1
tell you that brokeu hearts are not
entirely figurative; but if they were,
you should not trifle with the affec
tions of auy one, and thus do them
a wrong which cau never be reme
died. Hut you say, Professor, I
cannot be decently polite to the la
dies without being involved iu a
love allair. Well, I tell you, no
young lady uuder twenty-one ever
gave her love unsolicited; and here
I will tell you a story. A young
lloosier once said to a Hoosieress,
"Sal, is there anybody coin-tin' you
now?" meaning thereby to inquire
whether or not his addresses were
acceptable. And Sal replied, "Well,
Sam, there is one icller sorter
courlin" and sorter not ; but I reck
on it is more sorter not than sorter"
as much as to say, come on il you
like. Let me advise you not to do
your courting "kinder sorter."
Whatever is worth doing at. all is
worth doing well. Again, il you
have to marry the whole family iu
order to get your sweel heart, lei
me tell you that tho old folks will
interfere, and I advise you to open
the doors and windows mid tell
them that their room is better thau
their company. By all means stick
to yot.r wife. If, as is often the
case, there is a sister, who is jealous
of the attentions which are given to
the wife, instead of the sister, and
she interferes by pointing out what
she cousiders a fault, and says your
wife is not such a pink of perfection
after all, that sister deserves pitch
ing out of a second-story window,

Boundaries and Titles to Farms.
A few year? ago a dozen fanners
iu a town in Eatdern Illinois discov
ered that they had erected houos1
am other buildings, dug wells and
planted Iruit and ornamental trees
on land belonging lo others. None
of the fences dividing their farms
were on the true line. Some of
them had been to the expense ol
making valuable improvements ol
various kinds on laud to which 1 1 icy
had no title, or to which the bound
aries had not been correctly marked.
They had purchased their land ot
Ihc agent of a speculator, who in
formed them that he understood a
certain tree stood at such a corner of
the tract he was disposing of. They
accordingly measured from the tree
and stuck up their stakes.
The land was of little value then,
and it was not thought worth while
to employ a surveyor to run Ihe
lines. Most of the laud in the vicin
ity was open prairie, and the dilfer
ence of a few rods, more or less, did
not appear to amount to much.
Iu the course of a few years
the laud became valuable, partly on
account of the improvements upon
it, and partly because the entire
section was settled. Some new set
tler had his land "run out" by a
competent surveyor, when it was
discovered that none of the fences
were on the right line, and that a
iarge number of buildings, wells and
orchaidb were on laud that did not
legally belong to Ihe persons who
had made Ihe improvements. The
cost of adjusting mailers, though
brought about by the most amicable
means, wits greater than the origiual
cost of the entire section of laud,
Instances of the above kind may
not often occur, but the instances of
buildiug division fences several rods
from the (rue line are very common.
Comparatively fi'Tf persons who
take up a farm have the laud sur
veyed. They generally start from
some farm that is inclosed and run
out the number of acres their deed
calls for. Many who know where
the true lines are erect a fence be
yond the lino because they do not
wish to cut the boards or rails they
arc using, jurist persons who pur
chase improved farms accept the
boundaries that are marked by di
vision fences. Much of the meas
urement of land is done by means of
a chain or stick which was never
marked by a standard. In point of
tact, most of the measurement of
laud is little better thau guess-work.
Kvery person who lakes a new
farm or who purchases one that htts
been occupied would find it to his
interest to have it accurately sur
veyed before he proceeds to make
improvements upon it. If several
farmers would unite iu having a
survey ot their laud made, the ex
pense to each would be vory small.
The best time to survey land is iu
the fall, after the crops have been
harvested and most of the other veg
etation has beeu killed by the frost.
It is then easy to carry a chain and
there is little lo obstruct the vision.
When the survey is completed per
manent stone posts should he erect
ed at the corners of the sections and
quarter scctious. The number of
the sections can be easily marked
on them with a stone chisel.
In many sections of the country
that were settled at an early day
there was considerable difficulty in
establishing the boundary of tracts
ot laud; the territory was divided
up by different grants, and iu nu
merous cases the land granted to ouo
individual overlapped that granted
to another. This gave rise to much
complication and to numerous diffi
culties. There were no settled bate
or meridian lines. The location of
large tracts of land was designated
by means of lakes, rivers, or other
conspicuous natural objects. Small
er tracts were described by meaus
of "metes and bounds." Deeds of
ten recited that a particularly-described
stone or tree was tho start
ing point in making a survey, and
that the boundary ran so many rods
in certain directions from it, then
turned at such au angle, ran a certain
number of rods, turned again, and
then ran to the place of beginning.
It is very easy to ascertain the
location and boundaries of lots of
land surveved by the General Gov
ernment, and it scems strange, in
deed, that all division fences are uot
built on the proper lines. The land
marks made at the time the land
was originally surveyed are not
generally obliterated, and measures
should be taken by local authorities
or property-owners to replace them
with permanent ftone structures.
Many farmers are quite as careless
abotil their title to their land as
they are about their boundaries.
They often bargain and pay for land
without having any abstract of the
title, which may be very unsatisfac
tory. They should not only obtain
an abstract of the title as it appears
on the records of the county, but
they should have it carefully exam
ined by a competent lawyer. Little
property changes hands iu a city
unless an abstract to the title is fur
nished and a legal opinion on il
obtained. In the. country, however,
it is no uncommon thing for a per
son to purchase a farm and hare no
other evidence of the value of the
title than the word of the seller. He
may take a warranty deed, but the
person who gives it may bo in no
condition to make the title good if
it proves to be defective, or to make
good the loss that has boon sus
tained. A person purchasing a farm would
do well to obtain from the seller all
the deeds by which it has been con
veyed. They are of no value to the
former owner, but they may be of
great value to the present one. In
case the public records are destroy
ed, they furnish the best evidence of
the title to the property. It is also
well lo obtain all the tax receipts
and to carefully file them away. As
new ones are obtained they should
be carefully preserved. It is often
the case that land is sold for the
alleged non-payment of faxes that
were probably paid, and for which a
receipt was obtained. The payment
of taxes was not entered on the
books of the collector on account of
negligence or criminality, but a re
ceipt for them will save the cost of
redemption, which is liable to be
considerable.
If a farmer mortgages his place
he .should fake a release when the
obligation is discharged, and have il
promptly recorded. These two
transactions should (lion he entered
on the abstract of title by the Re
corder or oilier person duly author
ized, with a certificate that no other
transfers have been made up to a
certain date. It will save much
cost in the settlement of an estate,
and much time in the sale of prop
erty, if Ihe title is complete and
without a cloud. No farmer should
feel hceure in his possessions till he
has the bouudaricr lo them carefully
marked by a competent surveyor,
and has the title certified to by a
proper olfirer and approved by a
person of legal attainments! Laud
is too valuable to a farmer to allow
any doubts to exist in relation to its
boundaries or title. No money
should be paid aud no improve
ments mudc. till a farmer feels secure
about thcae matters. Chicayo
Times.
Dull boys, don't be discouraged.
Slow growth is often sure growth.
Some minds are like Norwegian
pines. They are slow iu growth;
but they are striking their roots
deep. Some of Ihe greatest men
have beeu dull boys. Dryden and
Swift were dull as boys; so was
Goldsmith, so was Gibbon, and so
was Sir "Walter Scott. Napoleon,
al school, had so much difficulty iu
learning his Latin that the master
said it would need a gimlet to get a
word into his head. Douglas Jer
rold was so backward in his boy
hood that at nine he was scarcely
able lo read. Isaac Harrow, one of
the smallest ministers the Church of
Kngland ever produced, was so im
penetrably stupid in his early years
that his father more than once said
that if God took away any of his
children, he hoped it would be Isaac,
as he feared he would never be fit
for anvthiug iu this world. Yet
'that boy was the genius of the fam
ily.
Liberal Training. One of our
wisest public women contends that
if mothers would train their girls as
housekeepers, at the youthful per
iod when girls would bo delighted
to learn, they would then take to
housekeeping as naturally as ducks
lake to water. She docs not rec
ommend, however, that instruction
should be confined mainly to do
mestic duties, or that marriage
should be considered the principal
aim of the fair sex, but advocates a
system of broad and liberal tuition
which will fit women for any of tho
probable contingencies of life, ren
dered them self-dependent, aud ful
ly develop their varied faculties.
It is believed that nearly 150,000,

Hmiiloyinent.
The following sentiment was
ut-
tered by Daniel Webster in a speech
iu the United States senate :
"Sir, I say it is employment that
makes people happy. Sir, the great
truth ought never to be forgotten;
it ought to be placed on the title
page of every book on political econ
omy intended for America, and such
countries as America. It ought to
be placed in every fanner's maga
zine. It should bo proclaimed
everywhere, notwithstanding what
we hear of the usefulness aud I ad
mit the high usefulness of cheap food
notwithstanding lhat, the great
truth should be proclaimed every
where, should be made into a prov
erb il it couldthat when there is
work for the bauds and brain there
will be work for the teeth. Where
there is employment there will be
bread. And iu a country like our
own, above all others, will this truth
hold good a country like ours,
where, with a great ileal of spirit au
d
activity among the. masses, if thoy
cau find employment, there is al
wavs in-put willingness for labor
If
they cau obtain fair compensation
for I heir labor, they will have good
houses, good clothing, good food and
the meaus of educating their chil
dren from their labor, that labor
will be cheerful, and they will be a
contented and happy people."
A Mother's Care. No hireling
should be intrusted with the care ot
children. A devoted mother says:
"I devoted myself to the charge of
my nursery ; 1 attended iu person to
the physical and mental ueodsof my
young children. The work was la
borious, but it has repaid me. They
are healthy, brave, honest aud frank ;
they are cursed with uono of the
small vices contracted by intimate
intercourse with persons of inferior
intelligence; and they are self-sustaining
at an early period. Neither
pert nor precocious, they ripen early
to judgment and common sense, and
I believe that the tillage of my own
little field has produced a harvest
worth the labor."
"No, parson, I probly never git
courage to jiue Ihe church. When
a poor darky's spiritual 'viser takes
him down in de ribber and says: "I
capsize thee, and (hen ducks him
under, it's time dal darky looks after
himself. You don't play none of
dem games on me, old man."
Let. us uot imagine evils we do
not feel, nor injure life by misrepre
sentations. The lite of a solitary man will cer
tainly be miserable, but not certain
