HOW TO DIE FOR LOVE.

The ncighborhood Of Chapel Bar.
on Wednesday evening last, about
half past nine O'Clock, was thrown in
TO state of confusion, anxiety, and
alarm, which, however, SON gave
place to that Of laughter on learning
the cause. A gay Lothario in a ho-
sier's warehouse, became violently
enamourcd Of a respectable tailor's
daughter, and fearing that his love
did not meet with due return, and
that he should be deprived Of the So
ciely of his fair one, he alternately
intrcalcd, sighed, wept, promised,
threatened and performed all that an
ardent suitor could be expected to do.
All however, proved unavaling in ac-
complishing the object dearest to his
heart, that Of winning the affections
Of his fair one. At length, driven to
desperation, he came to the AWFUL
resolution Of destroying himself, and
that too in the presence of his bclov-
ed. To effect his purpose, he loaded
a pistol with powder and BALL and
repaired to the residence Of his ador-
ed, but ere he arrived, he took cs-
pccial care to extract The ball, and
presented himself before the lady
with his dreadful implement of death
in his possession. They were to-
gcther alone for some time, in the
dining room Of the house Of the lady's
father, when, TO the CONSERVATION Of
the family and ncig ghborhooI, the re-
port ola pistol was heard. The first
individual who repaired to the room
was the mother Of the lady, who,
shocked at the sight of her daughter
and the gallant gentleman lying both
on the floor, was afraid to enter the
room; others speedily followed, and
found the lady scnscless and cold, ,and
her lover stupid and silent; but on
being told he must 60 TO the Police,
he piteousIy explained the mysterious
circumstance, land declared rather than
leave he would die at her feet Mel
thcr of the parties having received
any personal injury, as the pistol con-
tanned only blank cartridge, the dis
consulate lover was fnall y permitted
TO return tc his abode unmolested.-

THE DUTIES OF MARRIED FEMALES.


Neglect not says an author, the
little art Of cndcarInent, but let the
charm which captivatcd the iorer, Sc
cure the attachment Of the husband
The motions of a passion founded
on esteem and love are regular and
lasting its elegance consists in puri-
ty, aud lis transp orts are the result OF
virtue and reason. The three great
pillars, that are the support of virsini-
~, are virtue, innocence, and nodcsty.
Nothing is more spotlcss, for the least
spcck is visible on the new fallen
snow. lf wc take a view of con jugal
love, vested in ali its native beauties,
we must be persuaded that the pleas
urcs Of il far snrpass a single life, and
whatever is delightful in human ma
ture centres in matrimony. What de-
light must wcll-disposed female take
in convcrsing with the worthy object
she has chosen, and under whose pro-
lection she has put herself, till death
breaks the chain. All the delights Of
friendship, all the sweets of life, ter
inmate in marriage. The greatest
felicity we desire in this life is con-
tcntmcnt. If we aim at any thing
higher, we shall be greatly disappoint.
cd. a wife must endeavor TO attain
This essential virtue. II adds all the
soGnesseS and cndearmcnts Of refined
love in this state; without it, her life
would be uneasy, her pleasures inslp-
id. Happy and coniented within our
selves, casting pleasing smile on our
friends and acquaintance, we show 10
the world breast at peace within it.
self. To render the married state
more happy, the wife ought TO make
herself as amiablc in the eyes Of the
husband as it is in our power; the
pains she took to charm him before
marriage, ought to be redoubled now
to render his home agreeable to him,
to receive him with open arms and
cheerful looks. From the day they
left the altar Of Hymen, wretchcdness
or (clicityis placed inthcir own hands.
1t is at their own option to be happy
or miserable. They become, from
that period, a little world Of their
own: society consisting Of love, mu-
tualIy connected with love.
"Thc seasons Tins,
As ceaseoss round jarring wor Id they roll,
stu find them happy;
Tin evening comes NJ last, and mild:
Together down they sink in social sleep;
Together freed, their gentle spirits lily
To where love and bliss immortal reign'

JERVIS ROCKFORD,
HAIR DRESSER

N p ESPECTFULLY informs the public in
n u general, that he has taken a room, in
Whitman's Block, No. 8, Westminster-street,
where ho has commodious accommodations
for Genlemen's Hair Cutting, &c.
Permit him to say few words upon his pro
fession.
Doctoss Gall and Spurzheim have contend
ed that genius, taste, the passions, and all that
belongs to the intellectual powers fman. rest
upon the formation of the cranum:-This may
be true-but with how much more truth can
it be said that the beauty of" the human face
diuine," depends upon that great feature Of
the countenance, the HAIR. Fashion has held
a constant reign, exhibiting all the varieties Of
her power, over this vegetable of the human
head-now flowing in luxuriant ringets, and
now shaven with ecclesiastical solemnity.--
Wigs were invented TO give dignity to the wise,
and the appearance Of gravity and wisdom to
the dull; but the age of wigs is gone forever
the owl of Minerva has moulted his feathers.
and fallen from her fane.-The present style
of moulding this feature has never been sur
passed-it has a classical origin, taken from
the antique crop seen on the Elgin marbles
and Roman coins, uniting Athenian grace
with Roman dignity, AN d is finely adapted to
the ball room or military parade. This art Of
managing the hair" is one not learned in
day, but requires skill and experience. The
rule is general but the application must be va
red-for delicate features, by help of this art,
can be built up into something of marital air.
and severe limos of the countcnance softened
down to sylvan simplicity. If any one doubt
whether this be done, let HIM come and
test his skill 6m nov FL

YOUNG MEN.

Few things arc so unseemly and
disgusting, as forward young man.
When youth stands up in the place Of
years, and inexperience takes the au-
thority of wisdom, the world has right
to sneer and cast reproachcs; for "days
should speak, and multitude Of gears
teach wisdom. ''Inhuence, useful inAu-
encc, is too precious commodity, and
too slowly secured for wise man to
fritter it away upon every occasion, un-
til he leaves himself naked to shame {;
and finds, when it is too late, that his
words and counsels are powerless.-
There is habit in our republic, and
it is a good habit, of making harangucs
md set speeches in public assemblies.
In such assemblies, and through them,
in the nation, men of talents, matured
character, and skilful cloqucnce, have
a command and power Of vast impor-
tancc but an unnedged STRIPPING can
not select a more unfortunate thea
tire for display-ior Of all discases,the
specchiGing mania is the most de-
structive TO weak mind.
A due reverence for years will
soon chastcn the impetuous fires Of
youth. 1t isa reverence which should
be cultivated early and habitually; for
no virtue is more beautiful than re-
spcct for age: that aye which has vir-
tue for its consolation, and wisdom for
its crown. When the phianthropisl
