when it is too late, that her choice has been
as unfortunate as the place where she first
attracted his notice was injudicious lever
look with pain upon that young wife who
enters upon her second era with fashiona-
Bile ideas of society.-Her first era has been
devoted TO the attainments of certain rules
and systems which are scarcely pardonable
in the girl, certainly censurable in the wife,
and criminal in the mother.
The following remarks by Hannah More
so forclbly express my views on the subject,
that [ give them in lieu of any thing farther
from myself:
"When man Of sense comes to marr,,
it is companion whom he wants, not an
artist. 1t is not merely a creature who can
paint and play, sing and dance-it is be-
ing who can comfort and counsel him, one
who can reason and reflect, and feel and
judge, and discourse and discriminate-one
who can assist him in his affairs. tighten
his sorrows, purify his joys, strengthen his
principles, and educate his children. Such
is the woman who is fit for mother, and
the mistress of a family. A woman of the
former description may occasionally figure
in drawing-room, and attract the admira-
ton of the company, but she is entirely un-
fit for help-mate to man, and to 'traln
up child in the way it should co."

Winter is Conc.

Yes, Winter is gone, its cold bleak winds
Have yielded to warmer day;
And earth's fair dress is springing up.
Beneath tho SUMS still brighter ray.
But alas! how many warm fond heart.
Has slept beneath 4 snowy shroud;
Eer whose cold grave tho flowers will bloom.
Beneath the springs bright showery cloud,
But winter, cannot say farewell,
Without sigh-without tear;
For thou hast brought full many Joy
10 me, that have held most dear.
For whilc the earth was cold and chill,
And other hearts knew nought of love;
My soul drew pleasures rich and sweet
From fancy's land, from realms above.
Ihon farewell! winter, my thanks to thee,
For each bright spot in thy drear hours;
And welcome to thee, joyful spring,
With thy wild, sweet boquet of flowers.
And may each flower like hopes sweet ray,
Descending from cline above;
And tell Of flowers that nevor fade,
Whose every language is of love.

HiltS 70 husbands.

We not unfrcquently meet with "Advi.
ses to Wives" but seldom any thing respec-
ting Husbands duties to his WIFE The
following selection, by fair correspondent,
being very good, we copy it for the benefit
OF our readers.
1t should not be forgotten that a wife has
her rights, as sacred after marriage as be-
fore, and good husbands devotion to his
wife, will concede to her quite as much at.
tention as his gallantry did while q lover.
Before marriage, young man would feel
some dclicacy in accepting an invitation to
a company where his lady-love had not been
invited; after marriage, is he always as
particular? During courtship, gallantry
would demand that he should make himself
agreeable to her; after marriage, it often
occurs, that he thinks more of being agree
able to himself. How often do men, after
passing the day at their stores or places of
business, leave their wives alone in the cve-
ming, to attend some place of amusement,
and even when the evening is spent at
home, 1t is employed in some way, which
does not recognize the wife's right to share
i'll the enjoyment of the fireside.
Look, ye husbands! and consider what
your wife was when you took her, not from
compulsion, but from your own choice-a
choice based, on what you then considered
her superiority to all others. She was young,
perhaps the idol of happy home, gay and
blithe as lark, and was cherished as all
object OF endearmcnt at her fathers freside.
Yet she left all to join her destiny with
yours; to make your home happy, to do all
that woman's love could prompt, woman's
ingenuity could devise to meet your wishes
and to tighten the burdens which might
press on you in your pilgrimage.
She, of course, had her expectations, and
she did expect she would, after marriage,
perform those kind offices of which YOU
were so lavish in the days of betrothmcnt.
She became your wife left her home for
yours burs assunder, as it were, the bonds
of love which had bound her to her fathers
fireside, seeking no other boon but your af.
feciion: /: left, It may be, the ease and delica.
cy of home of indulgence; and now what
must be her feelings if she gradually ava
kens to the consciousness, that you love her
less than before; that your evenings are
spent abroad; that you only come home to
satisfy the demands of hunger, to find a
resting place for your head when weary, or
nurse for your sick chamber when diseas.
ed. Why did she leave the bright hearth
of her youthful days7 Was it simply to
darn your stockings, mend your clothes, and
provide for the wants of your household ?
Or was there some understanding that she
was to be made happy in her connection
with the man she dared to love-. 1t is our
candid opinion that in the majority of in
stances of domestic mysery, man is the ag-
gressor.
