Bonapate's Wives.


Their characters were Numerically
opposite. Never were there two women
less like each other. Josephine had
grace, an irresistible seduction and an
unreserved devotedness. Maria Louisa
had all the timidity Of innocence. When
I married her she was a truly virtuous
novice, and very submissive. Josephine
would sacrifice millions upon her toilet,
and in her liberalities Maria Louisa,
on the contrary, economised what gave
her, aud was obliged to scold in order
to induce her to make her expenditure
consistent with rank Josephine was
devoted to me-she loved me tcnderly-
no one ever had preference to me in
her heart, 1 uniformly held the first
place and her children the next. And
she was right, for she was the being 1
most loved, and the remembrance of her
is still all-powerful in my mind.

Why should an American citizen, bind himself
under solemn oaths to do, or not to do, what 1t is
already his privilege under the constitution and
laws, as fully and completely, 1t is in the power
of man to makeit? Why should he desire to abridgc
his own rights, and suffer himself to be dictated to
by others, when he knows full well that they ought
to exercise no such power, and cannot, unless with
his own consent, by voluntarily joining an associa-
ton, which exacs such authority before he can be
admitted into the order. Such an cxacton, shews
