Never comb your hair. or take off your
night cap till after breakfast. tbs your bust.
ness to take time by the foretop and not le. him
take you so; therefore keep all right n that quar-.
ter till 10 o'clock at least.
g. Wheh YOU begin the business of your toll
ct, you may do il before the window, or in the
front entry; but the most proper place is in the
kitchen.
4. Never have any particular place for any
thing IN your house; and then you may rest as
sured, that nothing will be out Of place; and that
ID great comfort in family.
S. Never sweep your floor, until you know
some person Is coming in: he will then see how
neat YOU are; and, besides, in such cases. even
your enemies cannot shake of the dust Of their
feet against you, though they may the dust Of
their clothes with which YOU have covered them
by your sweeping.
6. When you have done sweeping leave your
broom on the floor, IL will then be handy: and
being always in sight, and in the way it will ne
constantly reminding your husband, VIXEN he Is
10 the house, what smart, nice, pains taking
wife he has
7. Never follow the barbarous practice Of
brushing down cobwebs A mans house is his
castle. and so is a spiders:-It is a violation of
right; and a Shameless disrespect to the fine

8. Keep your parlor and bedroom windows shut

make them crooked and give them sore fingers.
/ H. But. il they should insist on mending their

on; this will make them fit better and girls can't
leave their work: If they should attempt it, their
work would follow them.
II. {. YOUR husbands coat is out at one Of the

On Tuesday evening last, John Williams, John
B H. Odinrne, Joseph II. Smith. and John p.
Hale, waited upon the President uf the United
States at his lodgings in Concord. under the d.
rec,ion Of the Committee OF Arrangements for
this towa. for the purpose of ascertanng more
explicitly at what time 1t weuld suit his Conve.
nience to visit Dover, and received tor answer
that he would announce his arrangements To them
at half past7 o'clock the following murning. At
that time, the committee again waited upon him,
when he addressed them 10 substance nearly as
follows:
lie remarked. be felt Administered, seriously
admonished by the state of his health to desist
from the farther prosecution Of his intended JOUR.
ney. He would have been pleased and sralIfied
to have visited the whole Of New Eosland; he
had been delighted with the reception he had
thus far received; NTH our institutions OF learn
ing and our free schons. the hardy and happy
faces of our yeomanry; he expressed himself
srarifrd beyond measure. He wishes our sys-
ten of free schools might be extended over the
south. the whole west and all the cOuRtry. He
was we'll aware that his determination to pro-
coed no further would be great disappointment
to his fellow citizens who expected him to Vi.
cit theu. and he regretted it. and he wished
the committee to express TO the citizens whom
thev represented, that they could not b. more
disappointed than he was 1t was not his
choce. bat the act Of Providence that produced
this result, and the event was beyond his con.
troll But his public duties which were very
pressing. his health, all adOonished HIM to re.
turn hume in asq0let manner as possible.
