her love the highest delight which gaddens him in
the vale of sufering it is green basis that spreads
for him its grassy verdure in the desert despair In
the possession of lovely sympathetic woman, even
in the soitudes Of life, only Illuminated by her Smiles
the soul is more gratifed than upon the throne of Ma
poleon, when the world honored it with its homage
and were dazzled by the lustre of its glory.
Though Rousseau threw enchantment over the ten
der passions-hough Byron and Ossan transtused the
most sublime and profound sensibility into love- yet
they never experienced all those fine feelings OF which
the pure heart of woman is susceptible. 1t Is the
fountain from which pity and ardent affection gush
out in spontaneous and sweet flowing union 1t is
in the midst of trying suffering, in scenes of distress
and anguish that the finest qualities of the female, and
the noble traits of the female character are displayed
in all their characteristic grandeur. When husband
is suffering under the pressure of unutterable wo,
when his prospects withered by the dissolved lu
sions of hope, and the cruel deseron of friends, it is
then that the consultations of wife pour the balm OF
sympathy into the corroded bosom of grief. Adverse
ty only gives additional impulse of ardour to her at
tachment seems to inspire her with spirit of de-
yotedness to the beet of her love- which rises superb
Or to the affections of misforunes. No changes or
chances estrange her consistency subdue the in
tensity of her devotion.
The glowing and courageous attachment of wives
to their husbands, under calamity, danger, and adverse
fortune, has been nobly and sngly exempllfed in ma
ny instances during the Augustan prescription, and
the plague of Florence and the heroic virtues and
conjuga piety of Lady Russell and Madame Lavaette,
must stand on the records of Immortality, emblazoned
among the most resplendant exploits that shed lustre
on the female character.
| Women LOVE with more truth and fervour than
Women are bound by the sympathies of the heart and
guided by the precepts of religion and moral obli
cation but alas with men these ties not so sa-
cred Some men exut, when, by sworn vows and
persuasive promises, they seduce innocence and ri
umph over virtue. The victim of seduction must re-
greet having experienced the devastating and des
olatng sentiment of love, that, like the scorchng
blast of tropical tempests, parches the flower and
blighs the foliage of the orange tree which other
wise would spread its fragrant blossoms in the atmos-
phere, and shoot its graceful branches to the skies
