Yet this is probably mother who loves
her offspring, who is loiling early and late

who will perhaps have to complain bat her
old age is cmbterred by the neglect and
unkindness of her children. They are not
wholly in the fault. A mother may sacri.
flee her health, and life itself, for her fami-
ly, and yet not make them happy, and if she
does not make them happy, they will not
love her. A child cannot comprehend the
value OF that affection which keeps his
mother busy from morning till night, when
her industry is continually crossing the
track OF his enjoyment; when it is made an
apology for petulancc, injustice, aud neg ect

The disposition TO view the dark side of

stead OF contemplating the unnumbered
beauties with which we are surroundcd--
the disposition to anticipate evil at the
very season when the greatest blessing
are poured out upon US, are exhibited in
the experience Of every day. We were
very strklngly reminded Of this disposition
OF human nature the present week, when
the year opened upon us in all the mild

whose genius has only been restrained BY
the natural modesty of the sex; and the
sciences boast a fair exposior of their
mysteries, whose work bids fair to be a
standard in the language. In poetry,
what man would not give half his days to
equal the fine fervor of Mrs. Hemans or
the lyrical deicacy Of L. e. L.. In the
literature Of fiction women are, I do not
hesitate to say, far beyond the men. An
the finer attributes are theirs. How can
a man portray a woman's heart, which he
never designs to study How well can
woman paint those feelings which are ner
daily object Of contemplation What wit
of man has ever equaled the wit of wo.
man Can a mans detestaton Of the
vcousness of ambition be so utterly heart
seated as that of woman, whose whole
nature is a rcbuke of this debasng tcnden-
cy of man. To say no more than the
names of Mrs. Gore, Lady Blessing on,
Mrs. Hall, Miss Pardoe, Miss Milford,
Mrs. Shelley, Mrs. Austin, Lady Charlotte
Bury, few Of the brlllants who adorn the
star-studded heaven of our literature, do
not hesitate to affirm that Miss Landon, by
her Ethel Churchill,' has placed herself
beyond all comparison at the head of the
noveIlsls Of the affections. You rise from
