ELEVATED CHARACTER OF WOMA !
BY CARTER.

The influence of the female character is
now felt and acknowledged IN all the relations
of life IsI,eaH not now of those distinguish
ed women, who instruct their age through the
public press --uor OF those whose dcvout
strains we take upon our liz then we wor
ship, but Of a much larger class Of those
whose influence is felt in the relations of
neighbor, friend, daughter, wife, mother. Who
waits at the couch OF the sick to administer
tender charities, while life fingers, or to per-
form the last acts Of kindness when death
comes? Where shall we look for those exam
pies of friendship that moSl adorn our nature;
those abiding friends lips, which trust even
when BETRAYED, aud survive all changes OF
fortune! Where shall we find that brightest
illustration Of filial piety2 Have you ever
seen q daughter, herself perhaps timid and
helpless, watching the decline of an aged
parent, and holding out with heroic tortude
to anticipate his wishes, to administer to his
wants, and to sustain his lettering steps to the
very borders OF the grave?
Bat in no relation does woman exercise so
deep an influence, both Immediately and pro-
specuvely Us in that Of mother. TO her IS
committed the immortal treasure Of the infant
mind Upon her devolve., the care of the
first stages Of ttlat course O! discipline, which
is to form being, perhaps the most rall and
helpless in the world, the fearless ruler OF an
imated creation, and the devout adorer Of IFS
great Creator Her smiles call into exercise
the first affections that spring up in our hearts.
She chcriShes and expands the earliest germs
of our intelects. She brcathes over her deep
est devolions. She LIFTS our little hands, and
teaches our little tongues to lisp in prayer.
She watches over us like q guardian angel,
and protects us through all our hcl plesS years,
when we know not fher care and her anX
ctieS on our account. She follows us INTO
the world of men, and lives in us and blesses
us. when she lives not otherwise upon the
,arth. What constitutes the centre OF every
home. Whittier do our thoughts turn, when
our feet are weary with wandering, and our
hearts sick with disappointmenlS Where

but to the bosom of her, who is ever ready
and willing to share in his adversely or his
prosperity. And there be tribunal where
the sins and follies Of forward child may
hope Tor pardon and forgiveness, this side hea-
ven, that tribunal is the heart Of a fond and
devoted mother. Finally, her influence is
fel'deeply in religion. If Christianity should
be compelled to fee from the mansions OF the
great, and academies OF philosophers Il halls
of legislatures, or the throng of busy men,
we should find her last and purest retreat vita
woman at the Preside her last altar woud
be the female heart her last audience would
be the children gathered around the knees OF

perhaps, only at the throne Of God.

Speak I'LL Of no one Dithout a Just cause.
There arenany people in the world who are
in the habit Of speaking lightly or contempt
uously of their neighbors, and some who do
not scruple to treat those who arc absent with
the greatest disrespect, by showing up their
faults to those who are present, without allu
dingto any good qualities they possess. There
is nothing so detestabe as this habit of back
biting in society; it often produces the greatest
bitterness ofteelings between those who ought
to live in peace and good fellowship towards
each other, and it never does any good. 1t
generally arises from selfish feeling, but
sometimes from thoughtlessness in either
case it is injurious to society, and ought to be
condemned by every well meaning and sen.
sible person.--Selfsh persons have generally
such al over appreciation OF themselves, and
the situation they hold in society, that they
are apt to speak OF others with contempt, and
are never so happy as when they can discover
the least fault (howeVer trivial 1t may be- IN
some of their neighborS Or acqualntanceS. IN
stead OF which, it Wolld be well tor them to
examine their own conduct, to zee whether
they are without fault, and ask tt ms, res

1t would be better if they were to consider

sublime prospects of the future, ltthey would
remember the great fellowship ofour comnoh
humanity-the social end-wtlch (as parts OF
a great community we are all working to
attain, and which awaits us at the close OF
our brief existence. Let them reflect on these
things and cot offend their Creator by inJnrlnss
