Hi declines to dtfine bis views on marriage, and -o we shall have to await the philosophical philoso-phical disquisition of Mr. W. S. Godbe on tb.it interesting topic. Mr. KeUey goes for the grim-visaged warrior and his unwashed aid-de-camp in a manner calculated to impair the serenity of the tatterdemalions and completely demoralize their thinned j and broken ranks.
