WHAT WoEiAN CAN DO.

We frequently hear the complaint,
that, under the present organization of
society, there is nothing for woman to
do. Nothing for woman to dot Is
there no wrong, or sorrow, or death &?
Are there no motherless children, fam
ishing equally for mortal and immortal
food? Are there no families, where the
little ones are more than orphans, because
the parents are drunkards, or criminals,
or both? Is there no brother, or other
relative, whom womanly sympathy
might take by the hand, and lead past
the yawning pit of ruin, as the guardian
angel, in the picture, leads the small
child past the beotling precipice? While
trouble, or evil, Or death exists, there
will be plenty tc be done by women,
whether unmarried or married. In fact,
the province of single women lies more
nigh those out-of-door charities, thar
that Of the wife or mother. Wisely has
il been ordered, that some of the sex
shall be denied the sweet solace Of do
mestic life, in order that they may imi-
tate their divine Master by feeding the
hungry clothing the naked, comforting
the widowed and the fatherlcss.
But as the great majority of women
enter into the married relation, it is of
them we ought principally to speak, in
answering the question, What can
Women do 2" As wife and mother,
woman can make or mar the fortune and
happiness Of her husband and children
and even ifshc did nothing else, surely
this would be sufficient destiny. BY
her thrift, prudence and tact she can
secure to her partner and herself COM
petence in her old age, no matter how
small their beginnings, or how adverse
fate may occasionally be theirs. BY her
checrfulness she can restore her hus-
bands spirits, shaken by the anxieties of
business. BY her tender care she can
often restore him health if disease has
seized upon his overtasked powers. BY
her counsels and her love, she can win
him from bad company, if temptation in
an evil hour, has led him astray. BY
her example, her precepts, and her sex's
insight into character, she can mould her
children, however diverse their DISPOSE
tons, into good and noble men and wo-
men. And by leading, in all things, a
true and beautiful life, she can refine,
elevate and spiritualize all who come
within her reach, so that, with others
of her sex emulating and assisting her
she can eventually do more to regcncrate
the world than all the statesman or re-
formers that ever legislatcd.
She can do as much, alas, perhaps
even more, to degrade man, if she choos-
es it. Who can estimate the evil that
woman has power to do? As wife,
she can ruin her husband by cxtrava-
gance, folly, or want Of affection. She
can make devil aud an outcast Of man
who might otherwise have become good
member Of society She can bring bick-

WOMAN AND MARRIAGE.


l have speculated a great deal upon
matrilnony. | have seen young and
beautiful women, the pride of gay circles,
married-as the world says-well. 49,
Some have moved into costly houses, and
their friends have all come and looked at
their fine furniture and their splendid
arrangements for happiness, and they
have gone away and committed them to
their sunny hopes checrfully and without
fear. 1t is natural to be sanguine for
the young, and at such times am carried
away by similar feelings. | love to get
unobserved into a corner, and watch the
bride in her white attire, and with her
smiling face and her soft eyes moving
before me in their pride of life, weave a
waking dream of her future happiness,
and persuade myself that it will be true.
think how they will sit upon the luxu-
rious sofa, as the twilight falls, and build
gay hopes, and murmur in low tones the
now forbidden tenderness and how thrill
lingly the allowed kiss, and the beautiful
cndearments of welded life, will make
even their parting joyous, and how glad
y come back from the empty mirth Of
the gay to each others quiet company.
picture to myself that young creature
who bushes even now at his hesitating
caress, listening eagerly to his footsteps
as the night steals on, and wishing that
he would come and when he thought
at last, and with an affection as undying
as his pulse, folds her to his bosom, |
can feel the very tide that goes flowing
through his heart, and gaze with him on
that graceful form as she moves about
him fer the kind Offices of affection,
soothing all his unquiet cares and ma
king him forget even himself in her
young and unshadowing beauty.

luxuriant hair put soberly away from her
brow and her girlish graces ripen into
dignity, and her bright loveliness chast-

fervent love and delicate attentions which

natural tendency Of feeling touched by
loneliness, that fears nothing for itself,

upon such changes, and I will not min

who daily move across my path; and |
would whisper to them, as they glide by
joyously and confidently, the secret of
an unclouded future.
The picture l have drawn above is not
peculiar. 1t is colorcd like the fancies
of the bride; and many, oh many an
hour will she sit, with her rich Jewels
lying loosely in her fingers, and dream
such dreams as these. She believes
them, too, and she goes on for a while
undeceived. The evening is not too long
while they talk of plans of happiness,
and the quiet meal is still pleasant and
delightful novelty of mutual reliance and
attention. There comes soon, however,
time when personal topics become bare
and wearisome, and slight attentions will
not alone keep up the social excitement.
There are long intervals of silence, and
detected symptoms Of WEAKNESS and

of unhappy restlessness, and terrible
misgivings of each others worth and

Of his heart, with whom he hashad even
a fellowship of mind, the society of his
contemporary runners in the race of fame,
who have held with him stern compan-
ionship; and frequently in his passionate
love, he will break away from the arena
of his burning ambition to come to listen
to the "voice Of the charmer." 1t will
bewilder him at first; but it will not
long. And then, think you that an idle
Establishment will change the mind that
has been used for years to an equal COM
munication? Think you he will give for
a weak dalliance, the animating themes
of men and the search into the mystic
ries of knowledge! Oh, no, lady, be-
lieve me, no. Trust not your influence
to such light letters. Credit not the old
fashioned absurdity, that woman's is a
secondary lot, ministerin9 to the neces-
sites Of her lord and master. If your

ment. would charge you to water the

ST. NARY'S.
There rests on thy bosom no ruined old towers,
No relics Of pride thathave battled with time I;
But the low simple hearths which the waving
grass covers,
Have beautiful mem ries Of virtues sublime
For here breathed the spirit OF ardent devotion,
With freedom Of conscience, a priceless bequest;
Thy CALVERT and pilgrims for this braved the
Then offered to others haven Of rest.
And planted the Gross, in its glory outshining
The pageants that herald a colony S birth
Beneath its blest shadow the Indian reclining
Then fancied the Spirit Land nearer to Earth.
His own loved Yeocomico still smiled at even,
Unframed was his wigwam that rose by The
stream
The strangers bright faith, while it guided to
Heaven,
Yet gaddcned the pathway of life with its
beam.
And still round their mem ry a halo is glowing,
That lights with mild lustre our country S
first page;
Like the beautiful waters that past thee are
flowing,
Their virtues glide on to a more distant age.
Then hail thee, st. Marysl thou art not for
saken,
Though long years have flown DER thy sleep
by the wave
For patriots hearts will e'er come to awaken
The glorious past from hallowed grave.
New cities have risen in grandeur and splendor,
In the beautiful land where thy dwellings
first rose,
But dearer thy memory, more thrilling, more
tender,
or thee, on this spot Of thy dreamless repose.

Ex-MoNK LEAIIY The New York
Freeman's journal, in noticing letter
from Wisconsin, says:
Our correspondent informs us further,
that the 'Ex-Monk Leahy, so notorious
for his falsehoods against the Catholic
Church, Tin which he was encouraged
and endorsed by host of noted Protos-
tant ministers, } and lately convicted and
sentenced to Imprisonment for life on
account of the murder of his wife's para
mour, has for eighteen months been con-
stantly pleading to be re-admitted to tho
communion of the Church he had so
deeply disgraced. Capital punishment
having been abolished in Wisconsin, hc
was not hanged for the murder he had
committed. His imprisonment brought
him to reflection, and after eighteen
months of probation, having n year ago
made long written recantation, he was
admitted to penance on the Goth Of last
month, by the Rev Mr.. Dael, after hay
ing again by word of mouth, made re-
cantation in the presence of the assembled
prisoners, and begged pardon of God and
man for his falsehoods and long continu-
ed calumnies. In sending his written
recantaton to the Bishop of Milwaukee
year ago, he expressed his Willingness
that it should be published.
