take the opportunity Of making a confession which
! have often had upon my lips, but have hesitated
TO make from the fear Of drawing upon myself the
hatred of every married woman. But now will
run the risk-so now for it--some time or other
people must unburden their hearts,
/" confess, then, that never find man more
lovable or more captivating than when heis mar
red man. man Is never so handsome, never
30 perfect, in my eyes, as when he Is married,
as when he is husband, and the father of a
family, supporting in his manly arms wife and chill
dren, and the whole domestic circle, which, on his
entrance into the married state, close round him
and constitute part Of his home and world.
He is not merely ennobled by his position, but
he is actually beautifed by IT. then he appears to
me as the crown Of creation and it is only such
man as this that is dangerous TO me- and with whom

aud all European Legislators, declare 1t TO be sinful
and all married women would consider II a sacred
duty to stone me. Nevertheless, / cannot prevent
the thing. II is so, and ii cannot be otherwise |;
and my only hope Of appeasing those who are ex-
cited against Is in my future confession that no

The Trae WIFE.

She is no true wife who sustains not her hus-
band in the day of calamity, who is not, when the
worlds great frown makes the heart chill with an
ghsh, his guardian angel, growing brighter and
more beautiful as misfortunes crowd along his
path. Then is the time for trial of her gentleness
then is the time for testing whether the sweetness
OF her temper beams only with transient light, or,
like the steady glory of the morning star, shines
as brightly under the clouds. Has she, then smiles
just as charn,ingp Does she say "AfAction can
not touch our purity, and should not quench our
bvey" Does she try, by happy little inventions,
to lift from his sensitive spirit the burden of
thought?
There are wivcs-nay, there are beings who.
when dark hours come, fall to repining and up
braiding-thus adding to outside anxiety the har-
rowing scenes Of domestic strife-as II all the
blame In the world would make one hair white or
black, or change the decree gone forth. Such
know not that our darkness is Heavens light; our
trials are but steps in golden ladder by which, if
we rightly ascend, we may at last gain that eternal
light, and battle forever in its fullness and beauty
:" Is that all ?" and the gentle face Of the wife
beamed with JOY. Her husband had been on the
verge of dstraction--all his earthly possessions
were gone, and he feared the result Of her knowl-
edge, she had been so tenderly cared for all her
life? But. says Irving's beautiful story, "a
friend advised him to give not sleep to his eyes
nor slumber to his eyelids until he had unfolded to
her all his helpless case"
And that was her answer? With the smile Of
an angel" Is that allf feared by your sadness
it was worse. Let these beautiful things be taken,
all this splendor let it 60 not for It'll only
care for my husbands love and confidence
"You shall forget in my affection that you were
ever in prosperty-only still love me, and will
aid you to bear these little reverses with cheerful
ness"
Still love her! She a man must reverence ay,
and liken her to the very angels, for such woman
is revelation from heaven.

II If it is fact, stated by the Barstow or
ators. that no reliance be placed upon the
word oath OF member of the Know Nothing
order we would like to know by what mysterious
power (unless they are members of the order)
these speakers able to determine that even
Barstow himself is not Know Nothing? They
have peculiar faculty of knowing that the Re-
pubicans Know Nothings which fact thew
say 10 one know unless he is X n him>
self. We are aware that denial is said 10 be one
peculiar principle of the " dark Ianteln order and
this fact itself is sufficient to throw suspicion IN,
on the very men who harp so much upon the
subject. That there were Know Nothings in the
Barstow Convention, we have the best of evidence
for one of them had the honesty 10 acknowledge
himself one, and said there were Al of the order
IN that convention. That there were members of
that order IN the Republican Conv ention NAV be
true We have no means of knowing but tina,
a large portion of that Convention were Knox
NothIngs, we do not believe L. is true that ONE
OF the delegates TO the National K \ Conven.
ton, is Republican and processes to support tina,
ticket; 1t is equally true that the other t,eo are
prolessed democrats and support the Bsrstow
ticket Now where Is the evidence, aside from
Tue assertions OF those who profess to kuo,c ,roth>
ing about It, that the Republican party is more
chargeable with Know Nothingism than the 60.
called Democratic party?
At present, we imagine, the Know Notbi.os :,
tins State are not sufficiently numerous 10 have
ticket OF their own, and will probably vote in ac
cordance with their previous political preferences
some the Republican, and some the Barstov
ticket. We arrive az this conclusion from, ~.
iact that those who are knoiU,a 10 be X Ns 7a
some OF them Barstow men and Others in fayo-
oil bashford, as they have heretofore belonya5 =,
the different parties by which those genrIens,
were nominated. There is much more reason =,
suspect Governor Barstow of being A repu,ar
hnow Nothing, than there is 10 suppose 10 same
OF hr Bashiord. The latter has declared nuhltc-
~ that he endorses fully the anti Know Notb;,.,
resolutions of the Convention that nominated han,
and stands pledged. il elected. TO carry our the
principles they contain. Mr. Barstow has never
ssid one word upon the subject not even 10 en-
doFse the platform and resolutions of his Cons
'eh'ion- livery paper that supports the Repub
mean ueset supports the platform of its partv-
several OF the papers that support the Bars,o,y
ticket denounce the platform of the marty and
we nave no evidence that Mir Barstou bi,,seyf
