WOMEN IN LovE.-What capital d.
Iplomatists men are in love matters; and
how eager is simple, vain woman, 10
believe them all that is disinterested
and high minded, because they can
scatter little gold dust upon the SUR
face Of that hollow mine of selfshness
within their bosom! For women. a.
cute and well judging in other subjects,
are blind as beetles when a man adj
dresses the language of love to them;
a moral mist rises over their under
tstanding-they become credulous as
bigots-and the poor man, even if his
suit be hopeless, is instantly invested
with some sort of merit, by virtue of
the tender passion. 1t is remarkable
too, that inverse ratio to other things,
experience in these affairs seems only
to avail woman nothing, but to throw
her off her guard. To s.refuse TWEEN
ty good offers, and marry and appren-
ticc at thirty" is next to proverb.-
Well seasoned hearts, perforated by
many an arrow from Loves culver,
have always some weak part in them,
and yield, often, in minute. For my
own part, from intimate observation Of
my OWL sex--the result Of many friend
ly,confidings in these matters-I would
sooner trust the discernmen. Of sixteen
en- such points than Of thirty-six; and
whilst it is usual to talk Of the dangers
of eighteen and the folly Of young
girls, the moraIist who wishes well to
womankind should point out the shoals
of eight-and- thirty, the extreme rash
ness Of forty. the next to madness of
forty-five.--[Lad Annebel!a.
