THE TWO SEXES.

The following true and Interesting par
agraphs are extracted from an article by
Mrs. Sigourney, whose mind is the dwell
ling of light and beauty:
"Man might be initiated into the varie-
ties and mysteries of needle work taught
TO have patience with the feebleness and
waywardness Of infancy, and TO steal with
poiseless step about the chamber Of the
sick; and women might be instructed 10
contend for The palm of science; TO pour
fourth eloguence in Senaies, or to 'wade
through fields of slaughter TO throne. e.
Yet revoltings of the soul would attend
this violence TO nature, this abuse Of phys
ical and intellectual energy while the
beauty of social order would be defaced
and the fountain of earthly felicity broken
up.
We arrive, therefore, al the conclusion,
the sexes are intended for different spheres,
and constructed in conformity TO their res
pective destinations by Him who bids the
oak brave the fury of the tempest, and the
Alpine flower lean its cheek on the bosom
of eternal SHOWS. But disparity does not
necessarily imply intriorily. The high
places of the earth, with their pomp and
glory, are indeed accessible only 10 the
march of ambition or the grasp OF power
yet those who pass, with faithful and un-
applauded zeal, through their humble
round of duty, are not unnoticed by tho
Great Taskmasters eye and their en-
dowment, though accounted poverty among
men, may prove durable riches in the
kingdom Of Heaven"

NEWSPAPERS.

A man eats up pound Of sugar, and
the pleasure he has enjoyed is ended /; bat
the information he gets from newspaper
is treasured up in the mind, to be enjoyed
anew, and TO be used whenever occasion
or inclination calls for it. A newspaper
is not the wisdom Of one man, or two men !;
it is The wisdom of the age, and past ages
TOO.
A family without newspaper isalways
half an age behind the times in general IN
formation, besides they never think much
or find much 10 think about. And there
arethe little ones growing upin ignorance.
without any taste for reading.
Besides all these evils, there's The wife,
who, when her " ork is done, has TO sit
down with hands in her lap, and nothing
TO amuse her mind from the tolls and the
cares OF the domestic circle. Who then
would be without newspaperS- Benya-

conomy-in tales, essays, newspaper par
agraphs, and in the current conversation
do we hear reiterated the lesson of wo-
vans duty to her husband, and in her
household. She must have every thing
in order, and study the art Of pleasing her
lord as sedulously as IS lie were the most
captious tyrant in the world. And veri-
ly, in his small way, he is too often mis-
cradle iyrant. a woman is expected to
be perfect in everything, and 10 do every
thing. No allowance is made for i'll
health consequent upon her maternal du-
ties, nor for The peculiar wearing nor all
engrossing nature of the cares attendant
thereon. But who writes and talks Of the
husbands duties? Who teaches him les
sons Of iorbearance, patience and kind
consideration Of his over-tasked wife p
Little is said on that score.
The world goes on--and hundreds like
Mrs. Lundy, co down 10 the grave years
before their time, and no one dreams that
their husbands are the cause of their death.
Blu, is e, en- so. Not in maternal duties a.
lone lie the cause of the wile's pale face
and dropping form, but the overtash of
her peculiar position. She is worked too
hard-harder than the slave in the cotton
field. Too often she is nurse ard seam
stress Cor half dozen children, and su-
perimendent of her houshold besides. -
She will bend over her needle night a!I er
night, in pain or suffering from lassitude,
while her husband sits enjoying his vol
lume by her side, not dreaming that his
duty, in order TO save his wife from toll,
is TO prolong his labor, if that be neces-
sary, in order to afford her the assistance
required in meeting the thousand wants
Of her children and household. If there
are any extra tasks TO perform. any extra
exerlicns TO make, the husband is the one
who should perform or make them, not
the wife, for he has superior strength.
We read great deal about the husband
coming home, carried, from his store,
couning-room, lis ollice, or his work
shop; and The " ife is repeatedly epiolned
To regard hln on This account, aud provide
comfort, quietude and repose for him at
home. This is well enough, and she
should do 80, as far as lies in her power.
But we doubt if many men can come home
as over-wearied with toll TO their wives,
as there are wives who are themselves o.
vcr-w carried.
Husbands if you love your wives.

story suits Mr.. So-and-su admirably
Look narrowly into yonr own sayings and
doingS al home, and see il it does not suit
you in more than one particular.

Don't Like his Looks. A Sheriff $ Of.
iicer was sent 10 execute a writ against
Quaker. On arriving at The house, he
saw the Quaker's wife who, in reply to
the inquiry whether her husband was at
home replied in The affirmative, at the
same time requesting him TO be seated
and her husband would speedily see him.
The officer waited patiently for some time,
but tie fair Quakeress coming into the
room, he reminded her of her promise
that he should see her husband. 'sNay,
friend, promised that he would see thee.
