4 cHANcE.--The editor of a paper in Penn
s~glvania says he wants a wife, and he thus
enumeraies the necessary qualifications of
the lsdy;
''She must be a gel whose eyes beam with
love, tenderness and pity , twin kie with fun,
frolic and mischief and tighten up the fash
with the immortal part OF its frall tenement !;
whose countenance is illuminated by virgin
innocence and purity, chastened by humility,
and happy from the practice Of every honely
virtue, with a heart to fee, a hand to relieve
and a bosom to sympathise with misfortune +;
one who can mend breeches, make shirts,
scrub aoo-s, peel taters, and cook dinner"
