RULES FOR WIVES.

!. good wife will always receive her hus-
band with smiles-leave nothing undone TO rem
der home agreeable-and gently reciprocate
his kindness and attention.
9. She will study to discover means to graft
fly his inclinations, in regard to food and cook
cry; in the management of her family in her
dress, manners and department.
3. She will never attempt to rule, or appear
to rule her husband Such conduct degrades
husbands-and wives always Partake largely Of
tho degradation Of their husbands.
q. She will in every thing reasonable, COM
ply with his wishes--and as far as possible anti.
cpa;c them.
5. She will avoid all alterations or arru.
mcnts leading to il-humour-and more especial.
ly before company.
g. She will never attempt to interfere in his
business, unless he ask her advice or council
and will mover attempt to control him in the
management of it.
Should differences arise between husband
and wife, tho contest ought not to be, who viii
display the most spirit, hut who will make the
first advances. There is scaroly more prolific
source of unhappiDess in the married state thar
this "sPirit," the legitimate offspring of pride
and want of feeling.
Perhaps the whole art Of happiness in the
married state might be compressed in these tive
| maxims-" Bear and forbear"-and "lot tht
husband treat his wife, and the wife trost he
husband with much respect and attention al
| he would strange lady, and she would strang,
gentleman"

Call the watch call the watch
"Ho! the starboard watch. ahoy!" Have
you heard
How noble ship, SO trim, like our own my
heartes, here,
All scudding fore the gale disappeared
Where yon southern pillows roll DER their bed
SO green and clear?
Hold the reel keep her full hold the reel
How SHE flew athwart the spray as, shipmates,
we do now
Till her twice hundred fearless hearts OF
steel
Felt the whirlwind lift its waters al and plunge
her downward bow!
Bear hand
Strike top galants mind your helm -
jump alon!
Twas such night as this, my lads, 4 rakisl,
bark was drownd,
When demons foul, that whisper seamen oft
Scoop'd tomb amid the flashing surge that
never shall be found.
Square the yards "a double reef! Hark the
blast
Oh 6ercely has it fallen on the war-shp of the
brave!
When its tempets fury stretch'd the stately
mast
All slong her foamy sides, as they shouted on
the wave.
Bear hand
Call the watch call the watch
"Ho the larboard watch, ahoy!" Have you
heard
How vessel, gay and taunt, on the mountains
of the sea,
Went below, with all her warlike crew on
board
They who battled for the happy, boys, and per-
ishd for the free
Clew, ciew up, fore and aft keep away
How the vulture bird of death, in its black and
view!ess form,
Hoverd sure DER the clamors of his prey,
While through all their dripping shrouds yell'd
the spirit OF the storm
Bear hand
Now, out reefs !-brace tho yards lively
there
Oh, no more to homeward breeze shall her swell
ling bosom spread.
But loves expectant eye bid despair
Set her raven watch eternal DER tile wreck in
oceans bed
Board your tacks che erly boys! But for
them,
Their last evening gun is fred-their gales arc
overblown!
Der their smoking deck no starry flag shall
stream
They'll sail no more-thcy'll fight no more-for
their gallant ships gone down!

RULES FOR HUSBANDS.

i. good husband will always regard his
wife his equal, treat her with kindness, re-
spect and attention, and mover address her with
bands appear to regard their wives, n mere
housekeeper.
9. He will never interfere in her domestic
concerns, such as hiring servants, DC. &c.
3. He will always keep her literally supplied
with money for furnishing his table in style
proportoned tn his means, and for the purchase
of dress suitable to her station in life
a. He will cheerfully and promptly comply
with all her reasonable requests, when it can be
done without loss, or great Inconvenience.
5. He will never allow himself to loose his
temper towards her, by Indifferent cookery, OF
irregnlarity in the hours of meals, or any other
Encouragement of her servants, knowing the
difficulty of making them to do their duty.
6. If she has prudence and good sense, he
will consult her on all great operations involv-
ing the risk of ruin, serious Injury in case OF
failure. Many a man has been rescued from
ruin by the wise consels of his wife Many a
foolish husband has most seriously injured him
self and family, by the rejection of the advice
of his wife, fearing least if he followed it, he
would be regarded as ruled by her. A husband
can never procure counsellor moro deeply in.
teres.ed in his welfare than his wife.
T. If distressed, or embarrassed in his cir.
cdmstances, he will communicate bis situation
TO her with candor, that she may bear his diff
culties in mind, in her expenditures. Women
sometimes, believing their husbands circum
| stances to be far better than they really are, ex
pend money which if they knew their real sit
uation they would shrink from cxpending.

By .Miss .Mary .4mn Brosoae. Come to the fields and woodss
 The spring Is breathing o'er the land--- The flowers within the solitudes Rise up, beauteous band The hearth, the hot hearth scorn; Come to the field by day, by night By day fair flowers the earth adorn,
 And stars the heavens by nighti Come, for all is soft and far; The power of God IS present there. Come on the glittering sea;
 The waves are lull'd in quiet sleep, Only a ripple mild and free,
 Is q, the murmurlng deep. Our bark shall glide along,
 Asif upborne on summers breeze, As softly as the night-bird's song
 Floats through the forest trees. Come and adore the gracious peace That biddeth angry tempests cease. Come to the towering hill.
 Look all around thee, and below, Mark the calm wanderings ot the rilt,
 And the distant oceans fiow. Look on the sunset clouds
 That as yet hold the infant thunder In those dark silver edged shrouds,
 The lightning soon Will reh" asen'SA' Come, and in that crimson fire, The Lord of clouds and storms admire Come to the bed ofdeath.
 Step lightlv--check that rising sigh; Behold the parting of the breath
 Without an agony Behold how softly fades
 The light and glory in that eye, rantIy as the twilight shades, The azure of the sky. Come, and bow in thankfulness, To Him who life's last hour can biesss

Military .A,aecdote.-We experienced, in the course of this very dark night, one of those ridiculous false alarms which will sometimes happen in the best organized body. Some bullocks stray ed, by accident, among the piles of arms, the falling clattersof which frightened them so much that they went over the sleeping soldiers. The officers bag gageshorses broke from their mount ings, S, and joined in the general charge, and cry immediately arose that it was the French cavalry, The differentre- giments stood to their arms, and formed squares, looking as sharp as thunder for something's to shoot at; and it was a con siderable time before the couse of the row could be traced. The different followers of the army in the mean time, uerescanpcring of to the rear, spread ing the most frightful reports.--One woman of the 52d succeeded in getting three leagues off before day light, and swore, that as God was her judge she did not leave her regiment until she saw the last man of them cut to pieces.
