and transgression, that nothing of sufficient
power is capable OF reforming them, See the
brutal s'Legrees" who infest the world, con-
taminating everything they touch, and TO whom
pity and compassion are utter Strangers
Trace back their mournful history, and you
will find that the tears of many loving sister
have been insulted and disregarded, that the
anxious appeals of many tender hearted
mother, which, if cherished as they ought TO
have been, would have rescued many from a
downward course of depravity, and which ere
long will haunt his days, have been needless
ly cast by. No man can easily forget the in
structions of his mother, and if for time, they
absent themselves from his thoughts, they will
eventually return and keep company with his
last days. Behold the murderer, whose hands
have been stained with the hearts blood of
his fellow-man, incarcerated in yonder gloomy
dungeon. There he is left to reflect upon his
past life. Soon the gallows will hurl him in
to e.ernity-soon, aye, too soon, he will stand
before the awful judgment seat of God. Left
to his own reflections, his past lite rises up
before him the angelic form of his mother,
imploring him TO reform, passes before his
minds eye, and hear his cries of frantic de-
spair, as he calls to mind her pleas addressed
to him when but a boy, but long since forgot
ten. They left an impression which time
could not efface. Oh how many would
spend and end their lives in prison, were it
not for the influence of woman.
Gentleness and virtue are woman's charac-
ter. They are her chief and most beautiful
ornaments. 1t is her peculiar sphere TO create
happiness. She is our guardisn, and thank
heaven for such faithful one. Were it not
for her influence, man would soon become cor
rupt, and lead life of the greatest depravity.
But she holds him in check, and allows his
wild nature
Z" Not loosed, to stray"
Then cherish woman. Watch over and
protect her from all dangers and obstacles
which may beset her path. She is your great
est treasure, and one which stands you in
hand to preserve. Remember-let it be deep
ly engraven upon your minds, that she is your
aid in the season of adversely, your help in
danger, and your protection from disgrace and
ruin. B..
