NOVEL MARRIAGE CEREMONY,

The following novel form of coremony of marriage was composed and used recently" by a Canton Missionary.

As sweat the story as the day 'twas'told, Au sacred as the nuptial day of ald, W: on, first of all our race, without a sin, The twain became one flesh and ushered in

The golden age of love, that never dies- Of love that lights now the leaden skico, And calms the storm, sro, gilds the silver

crown

Until the golden crown be one; renown

And richesep mp and pride and princely

power

Have never satintind a soul one hour: Save as the ministers of Him above.

To bring to earth-to us -this heaven-

born love.

It-was not good for min to be alone; A lonely, loveless Eden never shone With half the lustre of a Christian home- God made them both-and soʻto-day wo

come

To hear the vows, to speak the words anew. That wold in one the lives that now are

A picture of the Paradise to bo When Christ shall load His Bride the

Church-to Thee.

To Thee, Our Father, unto whom us pray- In solemn joy upon this wedding day-con And unto whom commit the wedded life Of thess who take the vows of man and wife- We pray Thee grant Thy Holy Spirit, then, To seal those voice in Jesus' name-Amen. And do you take her as you take her hand, And will you guard her safe on sen and

land,

And honor, cherish, love her na your wife, And cleave to her alone while both have

life?

You rest your hand in his; take you his

heart,

name, his fortunes, until death, shall part,

ehall a deathless love and loyalty Beatness of the vows you take this day!

THE EFFECT

of the partition scheme being thus brought into palion against the anivorasi and omphatic protests of the people, was the boycot of English goods. The people pledged themselves to boycott the English gooda, to use as far as possible Indian articles, to protect the Home industriesand to encourago Indian artisans and skilled labourers..

▲ DISPASSIONATE VIEW,

The writer of these lines would leave alone the political aspect of the question; for despite the present boycott of foreign goods being the immediate result of the partition of Bengal it would probably never have been brought about in its pre- Rent intensity but for the partition; yet, it is in the industrial' and commercial aspect alone that it concerns the outer world, or has been taken up by the people of the other provinces of India. The latter statement needs emphasising and if calmly considered is sure to lead one to a dispas sionate view of the whole question.

In India, the movement is known by the name of Swadeshi' and as such is not a.. new movement at all, but has, in fact, exist. ed all along, in all parts of India.
