sgMyAMEA,
WOMAN

Is Ba- VoIuIA4e
How solveless is womani
What thinner can trace
The varied emotions
That CLEAN on her facei
And what art can portray
The feelings that lie
In the heave of her bosom,
The glance of her eye!
How tender is woman!
The watcher at night,
Who leaves not the blossom
On account of the blight.
An angel of mercy,
She soothes us in pain,
And smiles in her gladness
When health comes again.
How lofty is woman!
Deep, deep is her ire,
When light words enkindle a4n
The spark on the pyre; AL
Majestic she towers,
Man quails* from her view,
Till her wrath, like acloud,
Soon dissolves into dew.
How loving is woman!
How fragile she clings
To him she hath chosen,
Whatever he brings;
Though all he a utter
Are words to deceive;
Confding-she loves him;
Though false-will believe.
How child-like is woman!
How winning her ways!
She strives for our pleasure
Through long weary days;
No i'll can alright her, ri ..
No shade can annoy;
! She seeks but to lead US
To sunshine and Joy.

periodical.

parallel. At two dollars we furnish a periodical
rivalling the three dollar ones in elegance, and inf>
nitely more useful 10 the sex. Onr success in this
reduction Of price is owing to q rigid adherence TO
the cash system and to payments in advance from
all subscribers.

HORRIBLE SroRY.-A Mother drosOm-
ing herself and her three childrem.-
The Steubenville (O.) Herald, of the sd
inst, says that Mrs. Rebecca Mitcham,
Of Ross township, lcft home on the 18th
Of June, and after lettering about the
neighborhood for a few days, took her
children, the eldest about six, the second
four, ana the third one year of age, to
the banks of Yellow Greek, and in the
deepest place in the strerm consigned
herself and the three children to the wa
terry grave. When the bodies were dis
covered. the youngest child was tied
fast to its mother, with ain apron and q
pocket handkerchief. The second was
tied above the knees, to prevent his res
cuing himself by any chance of struggle.
The head of the eldest showed some
signs of violence, whether done in being
thrown into the stream, or previously ,
is not known. The causes which led
this woman TO the commission of SO hor-
rible an act, are said to be inattention,
abuse, cruelty, and jealousy ON the part
of her husband.
