pitating heart to the world, and have
made known your wants and wishes
through the medium of the press, | hope
you will grant me the same privilege.
and pardon a reply through the columns
of the same.
First, with reference to your personal
appearance and moral character, must
acknowledge myself as being rather pre-
possessed in your favor. although few
inches more added to your longitude
would not be Objectionable, as it unques-
tonably gives one a high position in soci-
ETY., by elevating them above the medic
ere and every gentleman of sense must
realize the Importance of being far enough
above his wife to enforce upon her the ne
cessity Of looking up to him in all that she
does no matter if she be his superior in
tellectually, for, as the laws Of our State
place her upon an equality with negroes,
fools end children, it is all important that
she be kept in position where her hus-
band can look aown upon her helpless i'm
becility, and teach her lessons of graft
tude and humiliation, lest she fail to op-
preciate the inestimable blessing of having
some one to look up to. ss
AS regards myself. am widow, be-
tween the years Of sixteen and twenty
eight, am Eve feet eleven inches or elev-
en- feet five inches, and I really forget
which ; in complexion, a brunette have
hazel eyes and auburn hair; have a
handsome face and figure, with few
extra figures, and g baby" to boot (the
former of which | suppose you would not
object to J am blessed with good health
and good disposition am member Of
the M E. Church, but as to being a
Christian, that will depend entirely upon
ity have the social, moral and intellec-
tual faculties well developed am good
scholar, and capital good housekeeper /;
have faculty of saying and doing what
please generally, (except to my husband,
his aOal always being my pleasure.
Should the description | have given OF
my person and character suit you,
should with pleasure await the happy day
which would make me yours, but--but
II am engaged to the Editor of the
Pioneer.
P. S. If your personal appearance is
such as to justify you in contending for
rivalship with the above mentioned gen
tleman, yon can make known your wish
es by addressing
KATE, Box ~, Ohio.
Now, KATE, how could you shock oul
phelinks in that manner? Suppose you
are engaged to US, does that justify yor
in blowing it through the newspapers p
4 But if you expect to entangle US in the
matrimonial moose by such means, yor
are doomed to a sad disappointment
We suppose the waning leap year ha.
spurred you up to attempt matrimonial
coup d'etat, but it is decided case of 'snt
co." as far as we are concerned. w,
have some little knowledge of KATE, ant
believe she generally makes tolerabl,
good speed in her undertakings. In thi
one, however, she will find us little to
, keen to be caught in the trap she has Sc
] for us.
$ We presume KATE has been readin,
Priscilla Bedott's experiences with Dea
= con Crane and Elder Sniff1es, and seek
I to pattern after that amiable old lady
0 We, too, have treasured up the advice c
: the senior Weller to " be very careful c
widders," whom that distinguished oh
y server of human nature represents as a
/ onsartin institution
: How ridiculous the idea of KATE
widow--engaged to youth of our ten
der years And baby thrown in also
: Good Lord deliver US from any such a,
c rangement We have no doubt that wit
n KATE the wish was father to the though
: but she can't get us for father 70 the
: baby no how.
So il Mr.. B. G. D. will call on us pei
sonally. we will give him KArE's addres
. more definitely than she does hersel
. and assure him that we renounce a
= claim to her, and wish him entire succe:
n in capturing SO valuable prize as sh
unquestionably is.
