by assuming false position at commence
ment. And what did these persons ever
gain by their abject slavery to CASTE Merely
the passing notice of few fashionables, who
doubtless sneered at the pretensions which
they tolerated By daring to appear what
you really are, you may command the re-
spect of all classes. BY assuming to be
what you are not, will bring upon yourself
the hatred of those whom you look down
upon, and the contempt of those whose So
ciety you affect.
Is it not the extreme of folly to sacrifice
Independence, self-respect and home comfort
that you may be called on by fashionably
dressed persons, and by such recognized in
the street when by this course you forfeit
the respect of every sensible person? 1t is
really distressing to see a care-worn man
toiling all day and deep into night, that his
wife and daughter may be fashionably attir-
ed and live III genteel idleness. This kind
of conjugal happiness is confined exclusively
to cities and little up-start villages. In the
country, people live nationally. When a
girl becomes a wife, she expects to keep her
husbands house and assist him in getting a
living. And country parents are III no haste
to have their girls married, because they are
the beauty, the sunshine Of their home, and
valuable assistants in all the labors Of life.
Now boys, am not going to say do not
marry out of your sphere or class. Glasses
do not make people, though they form
habits. If you know an agreeable, sensi-
bic, and amable girl, who is willing to take
you for what YOU are, and accommodate her
self to such mode of life as your income
warrants. take her and be happy; but be-
ware how you deceive. If you WOO her un-
der false colors, if you permit her to deem
you that which YOU are not, and promise
what you are not able to perfom, and so win
her deceitfully, you will richly deserve all
the miseries that will follow. When you
see your wife disappointed and weeping
when you hear her complaints and upbraid-
ings, and feel that she despises you as a foul
deceiver, what can you reply? A woman
will forgive man almost every sin but de-
ception. A deCeiver she can neither honor
trust nor love. Therefore, use no conceal
ments. If young lady refuses to marry
you on account of your pecuniary circum-
stances, let her 60; she does not love you
Surely YOU would not deceive such one
into becoming your wife If you do, you
will live miserably, or drudge yourself tc
death, to maintain the appearance of hel

slave, a very fool, and it is your own fault
Never marry girl who is ashamed to bt
seen engaged in any useful and suitable EN-
ployment Flee from the girl who sits toy
ing in the parlor, while her mother drudge:
in the kitchen, as you would from the lep
rosy. She has neither heart nor soul. She
will never care how hard you toll to support
her selfshness. Once more, conjure you
if you must make your own fortune by men
tai or manual labor, seek wife who will
assist you by cheerful labor, her gentle sym
pathy and judicious advice. If you canno
find such one, live an old bachelor, and b.
as sour and surly as you please. Better ST
than be burthened with proud silly, an(
unreasonable wife, and children of her train
ing So says woman.
