WOMAN IN CHINA.


Woman Is 10 more degraded position 10
China than in any other part Of the globe,
and her humiliation is rendered moro con-
spicuous by the extent to which civilization
aud education have been carried 10 the en-
pire In no rank is she regarded as the COM
panion Of man. but is treated solely as the
slave of bis caprice and passions Even
amongst the females ofthc highest ranks few
are found who can read or write; their edu.
cation IS confined to tie art of embroidery,
playing on horrid three stringed guitar, and
singing; but the obligation Of obedience to
man is early inculcated, and the greater por
ton Of their time is spent in smoking and
playing at cards. The women Of the poorer
classes have no education. and can be con
sidered but little better than beasts of bur-
den. A man Of that rank viii walk dolibe
rstely BY his wife's side. while she totters
unyoked to plow, while her husband guides
Il! Those o. the lower classes who are good
looking. according to Chinese ideas Of beau
ty, are purchased by the rich at about twelve
or fourteen years, for concubines, and nre
then instructed according to their master'l
deas.

EFFECTS or THE .spIRlTuAI RApPrSes,


The decisions Of Spiritual Rappings con-
sinues still, we regret, q source Of entertain
ment with some sscrcles" ia this city. About
two months ago, young lsishman, said to
have been remarkably sprigistly and intelli-
gent, died at the Sisters Hospital in state
Of insanity, brought on By frequent sscom-
munieations with the spirits,v as the phenom-
ena is called. Again, some time last autumn,
a woman was brought FROM the country to
one Of our hospitals il a state Ut lunacy, from
the same cause--then believed to be hope
less. She had been considered person Of
strong mind, and withal had been much res
pected and liked by her acquaintances.--
Having however developed by frequent prac-
tice her latent rapping powers, and giving
herself entirely over to the doctrine of spir-
itual intercourse, reason WITS unfortunately,
though naturally enough aethroned. She
was placed under medical sfeatmcnt and we
understand, had SO far recovered about two
weeks ago that her husband came to remove
her. Another instance still---a clerk in
Broadway store, lad of fifteen or sixteen,
had impaired his memory and general intel
ligence to such extent, by frequent spiritual
interviews. as to render him totally unfit for
business he was removed by his friends
These are cases Of actual insanity, directly
attributable to the spiritual rapping folly,
that we can call to mind as having occurred
here--therc may, and doubtless have been
others of which we did NOT hear. On last
Tuesday, we mention rapping incident which
TRANSFERRED in house situated on the corner
of Spruce and Main streets, and which caus-
ed considerable excitement. Some young
women had assembled for the purpose Of call
ing up the spirits, and having worked them
selves under the requisite influence found
that they could not shake il off at will. The
mesineric agency manifested itself in yio-
lent nervous excitement, by reason Of which
they beat themselves with sher hands with
great force; one of the parties continued UNI
der such influence from eight o'clock on Mon
day evening, with little or no intermission,
until four o'clock on Tuesday afternoon.--
The only wonder in this case is, that the ex-
cessive and protracted shock to the nervous
system did not result in outright insanity
1t requires no Solomon to conceive the inju-
ry which must accrue to the brain from such
tense excitement kept such period From
these and other like unfortunate results is
iess~si slsss- isssss-s- md q sas apir-
its mania now in vogue, an absurd mania,
which would serve very we'll to laugh at
were it not so fraught with serious evil

A charm TO cheer ny saddened song
And when the space Of by-sone years
In turn view their varied scenes.

How different from my youthful dreams
Then what Is life7 would not give,
One thought, for all its gayest pleasures,
Nor even breathe one wish to live,
Fen though Id gain its richest treasure.
Here mingie in the busy mart
All strive to hide this cloud Of gloom,
But still, its mantle clothes my heart,
Alas that fate should come SO soon
Alas that hearts should e'er know sorrow,
Or knowing could not soon forget,
For everysthought Of coming morrow
Brings With each, some deep regret,
Ny early friends now pass me By,
In search Of wealth Lifts shining dross
May please awhile, the selfish eye,
But leaves the heart to mourn its loss.
The pleasures Of this world, are fleeing,
The brightest souls soon pass away,
But mine is sad in sadness sleeping,
And cannot wake, one cheerful ray
OH would that could yield my breath,
To God, and dwell in sin, no more,
I'd rather die, one Christian death,
Than live thousand lives, twice DER.

% From the earliest age children require
the most vigilant care. He who has been
reared in brawling and ill-mannered nur-
scry, can hardly be expected to ripen into a
polite man. The elder members of family
should bear in mind that the influence of their
own conduct will encfrce the children like an
atmosphere. There can be little happiness
in that household in which the minutest OFF,
