FEMALE CoRREsPoND sncE.-No man living is a
greater admrer Of the sex than are, their moro
devoted and obedient servant. This profession OF
our social faith we have always made, and adhered
TO; and in consequence the Herald is par excellence
the lady's paper, and we receive more communca-
tons from female correspondents than all the other
papers in town put together. Indeed, the idea of
cultivated female writing 10 such parcel OF Goths,
Jackanapes, and ignoramuses, is emlnenty absurd
and the absence Of female wit genius and intellect in
their columns is of the causes of their dry and
tasteless appearance it's of the interest," elegance,
taste, and refinement which have stamped an ndel-
lble impress upon the Herald. As we hold IT to be
our duty TO conform 10 the behess Of our fair
raines, we publish the annexed

"Man delights not me,
Nor woman neither"
twenty five is TOO young for her to set herself down
as an old maid and she might easily extricatc her
self from that category if she would Danish certain
acidity which we suspect somewhat sharpens the
natural sweetness of her disposition.
With respect to the frts and danglers she stigma.
Ties, we do not think she is really displeased with
them. Women have no objection 10 attraction, and
would rather be crtcized than not be noticed at all.
Besides, We will warrant them harmless; and Marga-
rel, or we misudge her, is capable of returning their
compliments in the present proportion of Wall street
interest. They have existed at all times, and are
sometimes called male flirts Loving to fatter about
women; and, as Pope has described them,
Like tame spaniels, harmlessy delight

life was one Of these, and in his day, they were call
