But possibly one of the most deeply interesting and serious evidences of it* power and influ ence was seen in this city on Sunday afternoon.. It was the: adjuration of his former faith by a young man of Chris tian parentage, his ymbracemcnt of Judaism, and nis subsequent marriage to a young Jewess. It occurred at the residence of Mr. Jacob Eichel, at the corner of Eighth and Dak streets. By invitation the editor of the Courier was present, and when we arrived we found the parlors filled with many of pnr most promineot Jewish ladies and gen tlemen—yet it was a qltiet and unosten tatious wedding. >• i' ' * .

' » ■ f i , ; “I tryi to; make myself add all; around ’■ me agreeable. It will not do to leave a^ man to himself till he comes (o yau, to! take no pains io attract him; or to ap-| pear before him with .a long face. It ia* not so difficult as you think, dear child, £ behave to a husband so that he shall*, remain forever in some measure a bus-, baud. I am an old woroan.but you can - still do what you like; a word from yoa ‘ Iu the right lime will uot fail of its' ef* ’ feet ; what need have you let-play the’ suffering victim ? The tear of a loving1 girl, Bays an old book, it like] a flew ' drop on a rose ; biit that on the cheek* of a wife, is a-drop of poison to .hilr bus-£.' band. Try-to appear cheerful and oon-T\ tented, and your husband will be .so & ' and wi eh you have made him happy,J you will become sc, no* in appearance, but in reality. The skill required is"1 not so great. Nothing flatters a man!0, so much tis the happinestof his wife ;*? he is always proud of himself as the'1 source of it. As soon as you sroch*er-'tt fill you will be lively alert, and every* moment will afford an opportunity - tor let fall ua agreeable word.
