HINTS TO YOUNG WoAEN.-If young man
is not kind and respectful to his parents, his
brothers and sisters, he will not be kind to a
wife; if he does not regard his promises, if he
lounges about the taverns, if he is fond OF
military parades, if he is disposed to cheat or
in any way wrong his fellow creatures, if he
is anxious to obtain a living without honest
industry, if he spends all his earnings for
fashionable clothes or amusements, If he has
not strict regard for truth, justice and mercy;
if ne is noisy politician, or religious bigot,
keep clear of him, for he will not make a
good husband
Never marry man for his money, nor to
secure a home. Such marriages are little
better than prostitution.
If you are determined TO marry, do not
slight young man because he is poor and
friendless. If he is honest, sober, intelligent,
industrious, prudent, of moral habits, kind to
his parents, Honorable in his promises, he
llprosper. Better is a dinner of herbs
where love is than Il stalled OK, and hatred
and contention Herewith.

ONE OF THE G'HALS.

Almost duel took place at the Northern
Hotel in Cortland street, few days since.
Among tile guests at the dinner table, was a
lady 'fair and forty," who had lately returned
from the golden shores of the Pacific and the
conversation turning upon the late "Woman's
Rights" movement the lady took an active
part in the discussion. She did not think it
was woman's only duty "to love her lord
with all her heart, and the baby as herself,
and to bake good bread" and after dilating at
some length on the wrongs Of the sex, she
made various statements concerning the state
of the question in California. A gentleman
on the opposite side of the table questioned
the correctness of some of the statements
the lady reiterated her previous assertions,
and her opponent rctorted by intimating in
plain terms that she was telling falsehoods
THE blood of all the McGregors" was in the
lIdys face as she left the room in a great
hurry and to return with brace Of pistols,
one of which she offered to the man, with a
demand that he should give her immediate
satisfaction -'distance five PAGES to wheel
and fire at the word" The masculine de-
clined the contest and again the feminine
dlrted from the room. Understanding her
opponent to say that he did not like pistols,
and having the bump of accommodation
largely developed, she made rapid passage
to her room, and returned with "broadswords
for two" and he was again invited to a trial
of skill, without shield or buckler. The
gentleman cast one look to Heaven and
another ut the door. A quick calculation
showed him that he might not reach the
upper regions, and so he made for the door,
which he passed through in time to have it
closed on the avenging sword, and the almost
frantic woman that was close behind him.
He has not been heard of since, and the lady
rs now on her way to her home in the western
part of this State.-N Y. Times.
