THE LADY's MAN.-Of all he animal nu;san-
ces which affiict society, we think the genuine
lady man takes the lead.-Hi face is eternaIly
wreathed with meaning smils, and when he
addresses lady, it is always such strain OF
absurd nonsense, that we haveoften been sur
prised that any lady armed with fan, and
addressed, did not brain the ANIMAL on the spot.
1.-THE lady's man does by any possibility, possess
the least degree of common seise, he takes es
pecial pains 10 conceal it, for Sme how or other
he has taken it into his wise lead that empty
sentimentality and absurd no,hngs the only
offerings fit for the female mnd. In order to
be true to what he conceivs tobe the entertain
ment and amusement of the ldes, he turns a
traitor to manhood, and so becomes epicene
himself, without presenting Iust claim TO be
| classed with the male or feniae sex. His best
qualities are those which he possesses in CON-
mon with a certain kind of dos--to fetch and
carry ladies', who while the laugh in their
sleeves at the fool, may not Object to the atten
tons of the servant, and SO ot of sheers com
msseration allow him to carrya fan, or escort
them to the opera, when men q their acquaint-
ance are not accessible TIE ladys man is

gh whole evenings entertainment, IT they

IL a mans duty to kdy consisted in picking
up dropped pocket handkerchefs and fans, or
twirling her round to the pon of giddiness and
exhaustion in the waltz, we should perhaps
envy the accomplishments oflhe mere lady's
man but believing as do, hat the delightful
loveable dependence of womol the sterner sex,
demands the exercise of more manly qualities
for her guide we have little les than contempt
for the effemnate accomplishments of the
other.
To treat woman like a dol-only to present
to her mind the gaseous crstations of false
sentiment, or frothy nonsene of fashionable
frivolity, is surely no way to win the esteem
and respect Of any woman no the victim OF

quenty seen them entertanedwith the folies OF
