arrangement has been made, and content
of pareut obtained, th engagement soon

10 go in company 10 maa can jpon on

lip 'iwlit cop and the lip I not known
in Holland a elsewhere nevertbtle,
thi system of making formal engaged
call certaiuly doe tend to prevent a rup

ter of no small embarrassment to call op-
en th saut pvoplo lb second time aud
ceremoniously introduch sweetheart nam

parlies and balls, aud also bis right and

concert unarcompanied by a chaperon ;
but be is seldom asked 10 pay a vieit in
tbe same houso with ber for more than
day. Lover alway choose the boos
and boy the furniture together during the
courtship. When tbe lime come tbe two
go together alpno to the town hall for the
"aanteckening" or betrothal. Thi if
merely a public notice of tbe intention to
marry, and is given iu writing. The no

A runaway match is held to be thorough
ly disgraceful, is accomplished with diffi
culty, and seldom attempted. Friends
now, in place of wedding card receive by
post a lithographed document, announcing
aauleekening. On the first Sunday af
ternoon snbsequent to this, the bruid and
broidcnni, who are thn called in the in ,
ler.val between lha Aautcekcuiog and.. the
wedding day,, hold a grand reception in
the drawing-room of ibe bruid. A sofa,
sometime gayly decorated with flowers
and evergreens, being occupied by the
two," the bruid' relation range them
selves at his right hand, the bruidgom'a
at hers. Tlie bruid wear her wedding
dress, veil, and orange wreath on this oc
casion, and the compuny generally are ir
gala costume. Visitors then, when an
nounced, march up between the two op
posite lines of relations and make pretty
speeches to the happy pair; and, after
having entrusted themselves for a short
time to the rare of the bruidsmcisjes, who,
dressed for the occasion, have the presents,
placed upon a table at the other end of
the room, and oiler hipocras cud sweets,
oiled "bunds snikers," aud cake, make
a rapid departure, and are succeeded by
others. The wedding commonly takes
place on the Thur day week after recep
tion Sunday, and during the interval balls
. . . f . ,
and parties are given in nonor 01 me
young couple. On the appointed day, the
wedding part', bruid and brutdgom going
alone iu the first carriage, make first for
tho town hull. 1 he burgomaster marries
them, make a little speech and receives
their signatures ; to all this there must be
four witnesses. Then to church iu the
same order. The party having assembled
in a sort of vestry, tho brtttdgom give
his right arm to the bruit, and leads the
wuy to the chancel, (lesenel now a-days
