The American is certainly more harassed by politics and is more seriously occupied with the consideration of man's origin and destiny, than Canadian is but that any considerable number of persons in any country can ever be so troubled by either of these things as to grow lean over them remains to be proved. In the well-to-do classes in Canada the English custom of late marriages has spread among the men. One cannot remain very long in Canada without having the idea very strongly presented to one that even a slight political connection between a colony and the mother country is a curse to the colony.
