REFLECTIONS ON THE MARRIED STATE.
BIZ a MmYied Man.

The leading features in the character of
a good woman, are mildness, complaisance,
and equaninity of temper The man, II he
be a providcnt and worthy husband, is i'm
nersed IN Thousand cares. His mind is
agitated, his memory loaded, and his body
fatiguet,. He retircs from the hustle of the
world, chasrincd, perhaps, by disappoiht-
ment, angry at indolcnt or perhdous peo.
pie, and terrified lest his unavoidable con-
nexons with such people, should make him
appear periidious himself. Is this the time
for the wife Of his bosom, his dearest and
most intimate friend, to add to his vcXations,
to increase the fever of an oyerburthened
mind by contentious tongue, or discon-
tented brow? Business, in its most prosper
Gus state, is full of anxiety, labor and tur-
mol. o, how dear to the memory Ct man
is the wife who clothes her tace in smiles,
who uses gentle expressions, and who IN 4krs
her lap soft to receive and hush his Cares to
rest. There is not in nature SO fascinating
an object. as . faithful! tender and affections
ate wife.

sweeps every thing along its course, and one
can scarcely get to its waters with any Safe
ty, till it enters the Mendoza plains thirteen
miles below.
In passing the first ladera, we were great
ly alarmed for short time, by circum-
stance which grew out of carelessness.-
Not sending one forward on foot, as we
ought, to see if the way was clear, six of us
advanced SO far, that we could not return,
when we saw, entering the west end of the
ladera, drove of mules, which must soon
meet US. What was to be done For eli
ther party to return, was impossible; to pass
each other no less so. would almost have
sacrificed limb to have been free from the
danger which threatened. As good Provi-
dence ordained it, however, our guide recol-
lectetl that, in the centre of the ladera, then
out of sight, there was a small ravine. or
break in the mountain, where brook de-
scendetl, and where, if we could reach be-
fore the other loose mules met US, we could
probably halt in safety. We reached the
wished-for spot, and crowded our six mules
into a small excavation, which a cascade.
when the brook was high, had made, and
here waited till 800 mules and four men had
passed We then came out of our den,
passed the other part of the ladera, and SO
reached in safety, another wide and good
road.
Just before night we passed the second
ladera, called, Laderas de Ia .racas, the
worst Of them all, but which, with caution,
we passed in perfect safety,-Over this,
ventured to walk and let the mule follow,
but would not again. Ones head is liable
to swim, and then his feet to stumble,
whereas mules head, in such places, is al
WAYS clear, and his feet secure.
The sagacity Of this animal in travelling
over those rough and dangerous roads is tru-
ly remarkable. When he steps on a stone
which rolls or finds his feet likely to give
way, instead of springing to recover himself.
like the horse, he lifts his feet, and places
them again, with increased slowness and eau
tiun, until the danger is passed. When car
ryng baggage, he soon learns to keep at such
distance from loaded mules and other objects
which he may meet, as that his cargo sell
dom strikes any thing around him. In cross
ing these narrow laderas, | observed that
the older baggage mules, to avoid contact
with the mountains above, would walk all
most to the extreme lower edge of the path.
| This caution of course arises not from any
design to preserve the load in charge, but
to save themselves from the severe jar,
which every such contact gives them.
In the worst and most dangerous places
they are perfectly composed, and, if let a.
lone and suffered to pick their own way,
will carry you through them in safety, but,
as the peones say, "it is dangerous to force
one o. those animals, where he, on mature
delioeration, thinks it not best to CO."

Where the bleak winds blow and the salt waves
freeze,
Where the sun shines on thro' long days light
And at last gives place to a long-long night
Where the wild Aurora brilliantly plays,
Darling its beautiful lancc-like rays;
Where the white bear sits with his shaggy form,
And howls to the roar of the beating storm.
Where never is heard the voice of Spring,
And seldom the flap of the warber's wing
Where the fruits Of the Autumn are few and rare,
Aifatd to encounter the spirit OF air.
Where music is mute and song is dumb,
From regions Of polar ice come.

christening treat, for about the eighth
time to some OF his neighbours. DESTROYS
of showing all respect to the party OF chris

possessed. which being quick dispatched,
his guests seemed to be looking for little
more. Go them said the father to the eld-

years old, 'go and bring us some better

Jest; why, the great wine cellar belonging
to the Knights upon the kytf Hausen.'
With perfect simplicity the young maiden
took frkin in her hand and proceeded to-
wards the mountain. About middle way,
seated in an old deserted path leading down,
towards the spot, she found an aged house
keeper, dressed III singular quaint fashion.

side. The young woman paused, not lit

the whole multitude join in the melancholy
chant. Some voices tremble with emotion,
and soon cease entirely, after All interval to
resume the strain:
Away, away--far above the sky,

And the gale of Heaven rushes by
Bearing celestial harmony,
And joy on my spirit fiings.

feelings which never lose the impression,

The Wilmingtonian, and Delaware advertiser., 1827-01-11

The step will be feeble, its ariness gone,
And the roses Of youth will be pallid and wan
And the brightness fade from the sunken eye,
And the graces of manhood will wither and die.
But there is a scene, as good men teach,
Where the chill ofmy bl,ghting blast never can
rcach,@
Where the virtues and graces that dwelt with
man,
In more perfect beauty shall bloom again
Where the winter of age shall forever be o'cT,
And the storm of death shall wther no more.
