"WoMAN."-A communication signed {" RfcB.
ARD THE THIRD and headed" Woman, - reacbed
rs yesterday, and we hasten to inform the miserable
bein. that wrote it-althoush he is not entitled to
he least attentiou--thst his communication was
sent to the wrong paper, # he for a moment ndulg-
ed belief that it would gain admission to the col
inns of a periodical publication. The object OF
he writer, whoever he may he, Is to hold up to rid
cule young ladies, who though they may be giddy
and rude, from their connexions and uniform
correctness Of conduct entitled to respec! and
protection and assure the writer that they hall
receive both.
We DIRE not aware what co uld have been the
lives to induce the person who calls himself
Richard the Third to pen his Infamous article
but suppose they originated in private pique. Ifhe
has been moved to such act by such considera-
tons and feelings. we shall tell him that no epithet
however opprobrous, is too bad to be applied to
hin, ami that he is entitled to nothing but the
worlds contempt.
Itis q maxim - that he who lays his hand upon
woman, save it be in kindness and love, is villain,
~nom it were gross fattery to call coward" But
now much more cowardly is the bastard and assas
ain. who, to revenge himself lor some real or sup
,osed injury, would hold dcenceless female up to
no ridicue OF :he world through the columns of
newspaper and secure himself from responsibility,
behind an Anonymous mantle! These assaults
bad enough, they are infamous and base, when
made upon our sex, but when they are made
upon woman, lovely woman, they amount to the
most odous of all crimes, because they partake
equally Of those cowardly AMI Disgusting feelings,
which ought never to dwell within the bosom of d
nan. For the especial inio NATION of Richard
The Third" state that his communication,
ridiculous as it when literally considered, has
been placed where he can find it, according to his
quest, aud that he will .er on Us a very psrtc
ilsr favour, if he will be kind enough to keep him
.Alfquite remote from this office, and communicate
ris vile trash TO some other paper. But for the
AXE Of adding few more words. we will remark
to the writer, that he may thank US tor not giving
has article publicity, for had lone So it would,
ia all probability, have subjected his person to one
of hose severe csstsaions which all such wretches
merit.

"A supposed supernatural being, the object
of dread in Germany.
From the Trenton Emporium.


We are all on journey. The world
through which we are passing is in some
respects like q turnpike-all along which
Vice and Folly have erected tollgates, for
accommodation of those who choose to call
IN as they go-and there are very few of
all the host of travellers, who do not occa-
slonatly stop e little at some one or other of
them-and consequently pay more os less
to the toll gatherers. Pay more or less,
say, because there is great variety as
well IN the amount as in the kind of toll
exacted at these different stopping places.
Pride and fashion take heavy tolls of the
purse-many man has become beggar
by paying at their gates-the ordinary
rates they charge are heavy, and the road
that way is none of the best.
Pleasure offers very smooth, delightful
road in the outset; she tempts the traveller
with many fair promises, and wins thous-
ands-but she taxes without mercy-iike
an artful robber she allures till she gets her
victim IN her power, and then strips him of
health and money-and turns him off, a mis-
cradle object into the very worst and most
rugged road of life.
lntemperance plays the part of sturdy
villain-Ee's the very worst toll gatherer
on the road-for he not only gets from his
customers their money and their health,
but robs them of their very brains.-The
men you meet in the road ragged and ruin
ed in fame and fortune, are his visiters.
l. And so | might go on enumerating many
others who gather toll of the unwary. Ac-
cldents sometimes happen, it is true, along
| the road. but those who do not get through
have been stopping by the way at some o.
these places. The plain common sense
men, who travel strait forward, get through
the journey without much difficulty.
This being the state of things-it be-
comes every one, in the outset, if he in
tends to make comfortable journey, te
take care what kind of company he gets in
with. We are all apt to 90 good deal US
our companions do-stop where they stop
and pay toll where they pay. Ten chances
to one then, but Cur choice in this particu-
lar decides our fate.
Having paid due regard to prudent
choice of companions, the next important
thing is, closely to observe how others
manage-t1 mark the good or Ill that is
produced by every course OF life-see how
those who do well, manage, and trace the
! cause of all evil to its origin in conduct
Thus you will make yourself master of the
information most necessary to regulate
your own conduct. There is no difficulty
in working things right if you know how
by these means you learn.
Be careful of your habits. These make
the man. And they require long and care
full culture, ere they grow to be a second
nature-good habits speak of-bad ones
are more easily acquired-they are the
spontaneous weeds, that flourish rapid anc
rankly, without care or culture.
These ideas are thrown loosely together
but they may be worth thought senC
them to the printers, who will print then
when they have a little room to spare.

REMAINS OF ANTIQUITY. A letter pub
llshed in the Massachusetts Journal, gives
description OF the ruins Of very ancient
work OF defence, situated in Gallatin coun-
ty, kentucky, little below the confluence
OF the Ohio and Kentucky rivers They
are on the summit of nil which overlooks
the coarses OF both these streams Tor IL or
10 miles, and affords level OF about rs
acres. 1t is accessible from the Ohio val
ley only by narrow ridge rising with a
gradual ascent, which would be passable
in carriage. 1t is separated from the
neighborlng high lands by deep valley
anu stream, except In one place where a
ridge connects them. The plain on the
summit is surrounded by a line of loose
stones, which have the appearance of an
old wall completely ruined. There are es-
timated to be enough on the ground to
build a wall feet thick and 40 or 80 toet
high. The stones have evidently been
collected there with gieat industry, as loose
stones are sparingly scattered over the
neighboring land. A smooth space of 30
or 80 feet wide was dug ont just within the
wall, and still remains. In some places il
passes through lodges of rock, where, as
well as on some stones in the ruins, there
are evident marks Of the sledge.
The two most accessible points appear to
have gates or entrances, defended by adz
vanced mounds; and it is not improbable
that spring about 200 feet below the
walls might have been secured in some
similar manner. The writer however, sup
poses that the Ohio river once ran at
much greater elevation than at present, and
might have passed near this ratification.
The great antiquity of the work is proved
by the fact that forest trees which grow
upon the site, do not differ in any respect
from those in the vicinity.

Though now it be a ruined shrine,

For my spirit hath left her earthly home,
