WHAT WoMAT CAN Do.-As a wife anh
mother, woman can make or mar the happiness
of hex husband and children even if she did
nothing else surely this would be sufficient
destiny. BY her thrift, prudence and tact, she
can secure to her partner and herself conpe-.
temce IN old age no matter how small tEeit
beginnings, or how adverse case may &C.
casionally be theirs. By her cheerfulness,
she can resto her husbands splits, shaken by
the unXietieS OF business BY her tender cars,
she can often restore him to health, If disease
has ssizid upon his over-tasked powers. By
her counses and her love, she can win him from
bad company. if temptation in an evil hour led
him astray. BY her precepts, aud sexs insight
into character, she can mould her children,
however diverse their dispositions. into good
aud noble men and womn. Aud by leading,
in all things, a true and beautiful life, she can
reinn, elevate and spiritualize all who come
within her reach so that, with Others of her
sex cmudmS and assisting her she can event
ual do more to reg 'nerale the world thsn all
statesmen or rcfuImarS that ever legisla,ed.-
She con do as much, alas perhaps even more,
to degrade man, if she chooses it. Who eau
estimate the evil that women has the power to
do? As ii wife she can ruin her husband by
ex'ravagance, 70 ly or want of affection She
can make es'vil and an outcast of man who.
might, otherwise. have become q member of So
ciety. She can bring chickering's, strife and per-
petual diScnrd into what has been happy home.
She can change he innocent bab's whom God
has entrusted TO h-r charge, into vile men, and
even vlrr women She can lower the moral
tone of society, and thus pollute legislation at
the springfield. She can, in fine, becoue an in-
s.runrnt OF evil, instead of an angel of good
Instead Of making Aowers Of truth. purity and
spirituality spring up in her footsteps, till tia
whole earth smiles with lnveliness that is al
most CELESTIAL, she can turn it iuto black and
blasted desert, covered with the scorn of evil
passions, ard swept by the bitter blasts uf ever

are hard working young men who, after toiling
all day, 90 to town, as they call it, in the even
ing, for recreation. They do not feel called
upon to" dress up" on every such occasion, and
well knowing that the uppertendom will not
degn to recognize them, unless through the me-
dium of fine apparel, they are forced, of course,
to associate with those whose principles, if they
have any, are somewhat loose. Once in such
company, they are very naturally and uncon-
sciously led into the commission Of low acts
naturally, | say, because being with rowdies,
they must act the rowdy's part, on the principle
that he that is with the Romans, must accom-
modate himself to their maxims and practices
As general thing these same young men when
dressed in respectable apparel feel above
such low-lived transactions. | have known
several instances ofyoung day-laborers of thi;
class, (who when fashionably dressed, were a:
orderly as any youth,) that on returning from
J town late in the evening, would unhinge somt
aristocrat's gate, let down his bars, destroy hi:
vines, shear his horses, take his wagon apart ans
put it together on the top of his barn. or perform
some other such vile deed. Now, 10 my mind
this is evidently caused by the unjust STANDARD
of gentility, which society has adopted.
When men shall be judged by their menta
aid moral worth, rather than BY a foppish ex
terror, rowlyism will decrease if not disappear

SPRING CAROL.
BY MYRTA MAY.

The glorious Spring has come again,
And clothed in beauty field and plain
Ger every vale and mountain height
Is flung her robe Of golden light.
The breath floats by iA every breeze
That fans the perfume.laden trees,
Unheeding Earth's tumultuOus strife,
All natures bursting into life!
Rejoice! rejoice children of men,
The glorious Spring has come again!
They have comel they have come! the bright eyed
flowers
They are blossoming now in the woodland bowers;
They are laughing beside each glancing stream
As they catch the light of the suns first beam,
The violet opens its soft blue eye
With a hue, just borrowed from the sky
And wooed to life by the balmy breeze
The " "May-hower opens its starry leaves.
Rejoice rejoice, children of men
The flowers, the flowers are springing again!
They have come, they have come, with the breath oi
Spring,
gain in their forest home to sing
Each swift-winged bird with its Joyous song,
Telling us Winter is and gone"
Oh! from each heart let 1e De1m swell,
And blend with the music in forest and dell,
Till DER the green Earth shall echo the strain,
Rejoice for the Spring is coming again."

As wild as the rainy seas;
My poor little child, my sweet little child,

No holy choir to sing so low
No priest to kneel in prayer
No tire-women to help me sew

Dropping his oars in the rainy sea,

Not without Him who is life t thee,
Could the little child have died
His grace the same, and the same His power,
Demanding our love and trust,
Whether He makes Of the dust a flower,
Or changes flower into dust.
