OUR grand-mothers were not, it is
true, io gaily dreft as our wives,
but or inexpressible greater utility to
their hufbaods. They saw with a glance
of the eye,whatever concerned the wel
fare of the family. This they were
studious to promote. In this they plac
ed their renown. They were strangers
to dissipation ; nor were they seen con.
flantly abroad. Their own habitation
was their delight; and the rearing their
offspring,their greatett pleasure. Con
tent with a kind of domestic royalty,
they considered every part of -this ad
ministration as of the last importance.
Oieens without a crown, they were
" a crown to their husbands ;" and not
only saved their earnings by theirecon
cmy, but augmented their treasure by
their industry. This was the source of
their pleasure, and the foundation of
their glory.
They maintained good order and
harmony in their empire—every fe
male servant at work under their di
redion=every unnecessary waste pre-1
vented by their circurafpedion.—Such|
grand-mothers ! wha; blessings to their
families! They enjoyed happioefs in
their chimney corners, while their oe
luocd daughters seek for it in vain a
midff the tumult of the world. Their
good houfewifery supported famines,
that have since crumbled into nothing.
In (hott, the wife appeared to acquit
herfelfof a talk equal to the hefband,
in being occupied with an infinity of
cares refpedting her interior depart
ment. Careful to inspire her female
progeny with the like assiduity, she,
reared an offspring like herfelf. With
such education (no French dancing
lifters then for country-girls, that
ough to be at their spinning-wheels)
their daughters were early inured to
join such amiable mothers, in cauung
the sweet and peaceable charms of pri
vate life to reign in the family. By
such virtues and accomplishments, they
recommended themielvea to the other
sex ; and, with their frugality an in
dustry, were a better fortune without
a groat, than a woman destitute of
both, with thousands. Hence a man,
Inclined to marry, feared not to choose
foch a mate; a mate that would five
and increase, instead of Tendering
what he had ; and was finely to per
petuate a race of diligent and atten
tive women. . .
O how often have I admired the in
duliry of our grand-mothers!

But now, how remote are we from
duties so simple and endearing ! a re.
gular and uniform conduct would seem
2 torment to our gossips and gadders.
They want perpetual dissipation—all
out of doors—full of vanity, and loaded
with the gewgaws of London and Paris.
" Who can find a virtuous woman ?
" For her price is far above rubies.
" She rifeth also while it is yet night,
" and giveth meat to her household,
" and a portion to her maidens. She
" layeth her hands to the fpindle;and
" her hands hold the diftaff. She
" Rretcheth out her hand to the poor ;
" yea the reacheth her hands to the
" needy. She maketh fine linen, and
" felleth it ; and delivereth girdles to
" the merchant. Strength and honor
“ are her eloathing,& fne (ball rejoice
"in time to come. She openeth her
" month with wisdom, and her tongue
" in the law of kindness. She looketh
" well to the ways of her household and
" eateth not the bread of idleness."
