The Caesar of America-the most as
tonishing and dangerous man Of his age !;
man that infused his own rebellious and
fiery spirit into every thing, material or
immaterial, with which he came in con-
tact man who went about work
ing treason, tampering with the BRAY
est and stoutest hearts of all our coun-
try-in the light of heaven, with an au-
dacity unlike any thing ever seen before
in the history of disafection setting our
laws at de6ance-mocked at our strength
and doing that, which he has now
failed in it, has been called madness !;
yet for which all the talent, learning aud
power of the country were unable to pun
ish him A man that poured his spirit of
revolt, like flood of fire, into every
heart that he came Notwithstanding the
oldest and most cautious of our veterans
lone that seemed toput himself, life and
name, into the power of every human
creature that he approached yet with
all this seeming, was he never in the
power of mortal man as Wilkinson and
Eaton can show,) man that suffered
the legal wisdom of the whole country to

Why did not he succeed ! is the ques-

swords passing forever about you--and

one blow and we who now laugh the
threat to scorn, would have seen the
President of the United States, the Con-

into the Potomac. But enough.
Man and 7yife.-In general, let wo-
man make a mans home agreeable to
him, and he will, in time, prefer it to
all other places. There are excep-
lions to this as we'll as TO all other rules,
but the instances are not numerous. The
great error which wotAen fall into, is,
that they suppose the loUer and husband
to be the same individual, which is a
palpable mistake. The husband may
love as we'll as the lover, but his passion
will. bear different character. is the
want of this knowledge which makes
married ladies troublesome TO their hus.
bands, from superstition that they are
neglected, if a man is out of their sight
for an hour or two: they are astonished
how he can be capable of taking any
pleasure when absent from them; and
attribute the want Of that assiduous at

truth it is nothing more than the natural
consequence Of possessing what we with
ardor aspire to attain. While we are in
pursuit of any thing the mind is in con-
tinued state Of agitation, which gives &C
tivity to all the senses; but when once
arrived at the goal we are not less
happy perhaps, but more calm, and con-
sequently less rapturous 10 our express

quillity, if may be allowed the phrase,
that man begins to survey the partner
of his fortunes through the optics of rea-
son, unobstructed by the vapors of pas
sion; and it is at this period that wo-
man should endeavor by the strictest at
tentlon to every word and action, to fix
on her husbands mind thorough con-
fidence in her virtue, an appreciation of
her conduct, and reflected esteem for
her character in general. These senti-
ments will naturally produce friendship,
which, when built on so noble basis,
can never fail Of lasting as long as the
meri. which gave it birth"
This is the season when we often
