serve such an appellation? The grey hairs at
least Of that old man who has become bent
with age in keeping pure and unsullied the re-
cords of bis parish, and who has never mingled
in politics, should have preserved him from so
vile an appellation. But honor and purity are
no protection. it seems, against the violent as
saults of p~artizans who become maddened by
the g|immering light of a defeat to all their
cherished plans and hopes!
Here we have done. Mr. Robertson NAV eff.
feet his aims--the. taIismanic influence of his
pen, backed by his powerful popularity and
influential position, may defeat Mr.. Erwin and
cleanse the "kennel" in the court-house-but
the gentleman may rest assured that the day
will come that he will bitterly regret the exam
pie he has set, of a candidate for the Legisla-
turc using his influence publicly to turn a To-,
cal election to suit his personal and political
desires.

Hon. TO Avoid q Bad Husband.-I. Never
marry for wealth. A woman's life CONSISTENT
not in the things she possessth.
2. Never marry a fop, or one who struts
about dandy like, in his silk gloves and ruff
fes, with silvered cane, and rings on his fin
gers. Beware! there is a trap.
3. Never marry aniggard, a close listed,
mean, sordid wretch, who saves every penny,
or spends it %grudgingly. Take care lest he
stint you to death.
4. Never marry a stranger, or one whose
character is not known or tested. Some fe-
males jump right into the fire with their eyes
wide open.
5. Never marry a nope or a drone, one who
drawls or ~draggles through life, one foot after
another. and lets thing take their own course.
6. Never marry a man who treats his moth
er or sister unkindly or indifferently. Such
treatment is a sure indication of a mean and
wicked man.
+. Never, on any account, marry a gamb-
Ter, a p~rofane person, one who in the least
speaks lightly of God or religion. Such a
man can never make a good husband.
g.. Never marry a %sloven, u man who is neg
ligent of his person or his dress, and is filthy
in his habits. The external appearance is an
index to his heart.

Do YOU love her? Has she not left home,
her parents, her sisters, brothers, her friends, al,
for you! Do you love her! has familiarity led
YOU to carelessness? have you forgotten the
vows YOU made before heavens tribunals! have
time and the troubles incident on all life made
her physically less favorable in your eyes? have
you forgotten that al! her youth, her hopes,
her aspirations for that sphere that all honora-
bic women covet, were pledged to you, and
have YOU cherished her, and are you true to
her in all! Ifvou are, then she is happy, and
YOU have acted a part to be appIauded by your
fellow men and you will receive one day your
recompense Of reward.
But, on the other hand, have you become
satiated? have you forgotten the being you
swore to cherish? have you left her to her own
resources, and by your continual absence and
neglect, caused her to pine in solitude, like a
meek yet gentle sufferer! If you have, remem
Der, oh, man. ,ou will one day pay the penalty
of your neglect.
Above every other feather which adorns the
female character, delicacy stands foremost in
the province Of good taste. Not that delicacv
which is perpetuajIy in quest of something to
be ashamed of, which makes merit Of a blush,
and shippers. at the false construction its own
ingenuity has put upon an innocent remark
this spurious kind of delicacy is as far removed
from good taste as from good feeling and good
sense; but the high minded delicacy which
maintains its pure and undertaking walk alike
amongst women as in the society Of men, which
shrinks from no necessary duty, and can speak
when required, with seriousness and kindness
of things at which it would be ashamed to smile
Or bIush--that d~eIicaey which knows how to
confer a benefit without wounding the feelings
of another, and understands also how and when
to conceive one-that d~elicacy which can give
aims without display, and advice without as
sumption: and which pains not the most suss
ceptible in creation.

The Washington Monument.
From the Picayune.

The Washington Monument Association
have issued a circular to those States in which
elections are soon to be held, asking that az
engagements may be made for the collecting at
the election precincts contributions from the
voters in aid of rhe National Monument at
Washington. The suggestion was made pre-
vious TO the last Presidential election; but the
arrangements were not general, and public at
tention was not sufficiently attracted to insure
a full collection. The plan is u good one, and
might be made universal, At every general or
local election boxes might be provided regularly
to receive such sums as electors are willing to
give for the completion Of grand national work,
which interests the feelings and the pride Of
every American. If the necessary exertions
were made at every poll, in al! the States to
represent the object correctly, and press it
earnestly, and state reliably the progress made
in the enterprise and the amount of its wants
for the future, 4 sufficient sum could be raised
in a few years to complete the great design
There are more than three millions Of voters in
the United States, and The Insignificant snm of
a quarter of a dollar from each would suffice to
rear a structure worthy of the fame of WASH
ingron, but more worthy Of the people who
honor themselves by testifying their love for
hi, memory.
1t would not take long, if the plan were Ia
ken mp in earnest, to collect from the masses
a sum So small to each, so great in its aggFe-
gate, and so honorable in its purposes. A
movement thus created would have, moreover.
the precious character Of an emanation from
the spontaneous gift of the people, untainted by
any parade of ostentatlous patriotism, seeking
to giOrify itself by association with honors paid
to the iIlustrious dead, and assimulate itself to
the universal love which in every hut and cot
tage in the nation sanctifes the name of WASH
ington.
Our own elections, which come offon Mon
day next, present a fitting opportunity upon
which to commence the plan in Louisiana, and
We hope arrangements will be made to give it
a fair chance before the voters.

THE CUBA QUESTION.

Copper as a Preventive Of Chozera.--Dr.
Burg, in the Paris Siecie, theoriezes on the
virtues OF copper as a preventive of cholera
He has shown that of 100000 workmen enea.
ged in copper mines, and in the various manu-
factories of copper, from the works in which it
IS rolled into sheets to the shops of copper
smiths, nearly all escaped, and in most cases all
escaped from the attacks Of cholera, although
the disease was raging in their immediate neigh
borhood with fatal violence. DIR. Burq naturally
attributes the immunity to the action, electric
or Otherwise, of the copper, and infers that if
other persons would surround themselves in the
rooms which they occupy with a sufficient sur
face efeoPper, say fifteen Or twenty feet Of sheet
copper, or wear metallic belts of square or
round pieces of fiat copper and steel, with card
board between them to prevent immediate con.
tact, they also would be secure against this ter
rible malady. The joint agency of steel he
considers to be, very useful, but the chief and
essential metal is copper. When the disease
has declared itself, he recommends the use O
copper, in the form Of salt of copper, or of any an,
other preparation ofthat metal, in doses which
a physician would not regard as dangerous
The reasoning is entirely from analogy. Tht
Doctor has had no opportunity to test the valu,
of his theory bytpractice.--N. Y. Times.
