Calling on our friend, the Editor of the Advocate, the other day, for the IaudabIe purpose of lounging away an odd hour or so In his room, among his books and pa- Pers' we were very agreeably surprised to md that We had so far become an object of attention and consideration among the bet ter part of humanity, as to have been hon. ored by two or three letters, sent him, un- der cover, for our own worthy self. We are but lily able to perform the part of re- dresser of grievances, but, of course, to the utmost of our ability, our fair friends may command our services, either personally, or With our pen--and so the letters shall find a place.

HARRIET.

Truly, ii is a delicate subject, but we can tell the disconsolate lady, in few words, our opinion of the matter. It may not be worth much, but such as it is, she is truly welcome to 1t. We have observed that whenever these matrimonial alliances turn out badly-an9 1t is about five to one they do so--it is only a succession of trivial causes which produce 1t. And with all due respect to the women, 1t must be allowed that they are generally to blame. Jealous of their influence, and continually desirous ot trying the love of their husbands, they make a great noise about little things-they fairly poster them into a quarrel. As we are a living man, we believe 1t to be true. We have seen young couple, with no earthly thing to mar their happiness-truly attached 10 one another, rendered continually misc rable because the wife aco,ld sit down and plague the husband about nothing, until he became angry, and then she would cry, and he would go to bed sullenly. So, ID few words, our advice to the lady letter writer is, that she attach not so much importance to trihes, and cease plagulng her gade man.
 The relations of husband and wife are like those of the President and the Senate. Ii each extend their prerogatives to the utmost, and stand determinedly to every inch of their rights, the probability is that they will soon come to daggers' points-but a llttle concession on each side-and little sacrl- flee of obstinacy, will make llte's journey, what 1t should be, journey along path hung with fruits and flowers.
 And so, having with proper gallantry, oiyen ear to to the complaints ot our fair friends. we shall proceed to talk ot other matters-and we must confess that we are in an irregular and rambling humor to-day. We should dislike grievously to be ted down to the superb magniloquence oi Johnson or the labored equality of Addison, though we are infinitely beneath both. We prefer to write as we would talk, if you, reader, were hy our side. June, sunny June.
