INFLUENCE OF FEMALE SOCIETY

From an accurate account of the con-
dition Of women in any country, it would
not be difficult to infer the whole state
of society. So GREATS the influence they
exercise on the character of men, that
the latter will be elevated or degraded,
according to the situation of the weaker
sex. Where women are slaves, as in
Turkey, the men will be the same; where
they are treated as moral beings-where
their minds are cultivated, and they are
considered equals-the state of society
must be high, and the character of the
men energetic and noble. There is so
much quickness of comprehension so
much susceptibility of pure and gener-
Gus emotion, so much ardor of affection
in women, that they constantly stimulate
men to exertion, and have, at the same
time, most powerful agency in sooth-
ing the angry feelings, and narrow pro-
pensities which are generated in The
stIife of the passions.
The advantages of giving a superior
education to women are not confined to
themselves, but have salutary influence
on our sex. The fear that increased
instruction will render them incom-
petent or reglectful in domestic life,
is absurd in theory, and completely de-
stroyed by facts. Women, as well as
men, when once established in life, know
that there is an end Of trifiing; its solicit
tudes and duties multiply npon them
equally fast; the former are apt to feel
them much more keenly, and too fire.
quently abandon all previous acquire
ments to devote themselves wholly to
these. But if the one sex have cultiva
ted and refined minds, the other must
meet them from shame, if not from SYM
pathy. Ii man finds that his wife is
not mere nurse or housekeeper; that
she can, when the occupations of the day
are over, enliven a winters evening";
that she can converse on the usual top
les of literature, aud enjoy the pleasures
of superior conversation, or the reading
of valuable book, he must have a per-
verted taste, indeed, if it does not make
home still dearer, and prevent him from
resorting to taverns for recreation. The
benefits to her children need nots be
mentioned; instruction and cultivated
taste in a mother, enhance their respect
aud affection for her, and their love of
home, and throw a charm over the whole
scene of domestic life William Tudor.

alist. Before the Revolutionary War he
held several civil and military Offices Of
importance. At the commencement Of
the war he held the Office of Governor
of New Jersy, which appointment he re-
oeived in 1773. When the difficulties
between the mother country and the col
onies were coming TO a crisis, he threw
| his whole influence in favor of loyalty,
and endeavored to prevent the Legisla-
tive assembly Of New jersey from sane
tioning the proceedings of the General
Congress of Philadelphis. These efforts,
however, did but little to stay the tide OF
popular sentiment in favor of resistance
to tyranny, and soon involved him in
difficulty. He was deposed from Office
by the wings. to give place to William
Livingston, and sent prisoner 10 Con-
necticut, where he remained Two years
in East Pindcr, in the house of Captain
Ebenezer Grant, near where the Theo-
logical Seminary now stands. In 177S
he was exchanged, and soon after went
to England. There he spent the re-
mainder OF his life, receiving a pension
from the British Government for the los
ses he had sustained by his fidelity. He
died in 1918. at the age of 80.

tions, as to ind myself deserted in my
old age by my only son; and not only
deserted, but to find him taking up arms
against me in cause wherein my good
fame, fortune and life were all at stake
In his will, also, he alludes to the part
his sen had acted. After making him
some bequests, he adds: "Fhe part he
acted against me in the late war, which
is of public notoriety, will account for
my leaving him no more OF an estate he
endeayored to deprive me Of"
The patriotism of the father stands
forth all the brighter when contrasted
with the desertion of the son.-Ns1c5Hry

WHERE MUsQUITos COME FRoM.

These pests of summer proceed from
the animalcules, commonly termed the
'swaggle TAIL" If bowl of water is
placed in the summers sun for few
days. number of "wiggle-tails" will be
visible, and will continue 10 increase in
size till they reach three-sixteenths of an
inch in length, remaining longer at the
surface as they approach maturity, as it
seems to live on influence derived from
the two elements Of air and water; final
ly, they will assume chrysalis form,
and by an increased specific gravity
sink to the bottom of the bowl. A few
hours only will elapse when a short
black furze or hair viii grow out on ey-
cry side of each, till it assumes the form
of a minute caterpiller. It's specific
gravity being thus counteracted, it will
readily float to the surface, and be wait
ed to the side of the bowl by the slight
est breath of air. In short time fly
will be Matched and escape, leaving its
tiny house upon the surface of the water.
Any one who has had cistern in the
yard, has doubtless observed the same
effect every summer, although he may
be ignorant of the beautiful and simple
process of development. If a pitcher of

HIGH LIFE BELOW STAIRs.-The fol-
lowing incident We condense from the
Dubuque Times. A young married la
dy boarding at hotel there, had occa'
sion few days since TO open trunk in
which she placed her wedding dress and
found it horribly soiled. An inquiry re-
suited in ascertaining that servant girl
of the house wishing to flame out at a
ball had stolen the dress, worn it and
replaced it, as she thought in good order.
The skirt was all bedraggled with mud,
the front stained with the dIippings ofla-
ger beer, the breast and waist bore the
unmistakable impress of the adventurous
hands of loving beaux, and the trim
mings torn and soiled, in fine, it was a
wreck. Ii had cost the lady over $500.
The lace OF which it was partly compos-
ed and decorated was of the finest point,
of the most delicate finish, and of the
highest price, while the fabric of the
dress itself was matchless for its ele-
gance. The ambitious servant was ar
rested and suitably punished.

FALL GROWTH OF strawberry
ROOTS.

A primary and vital condition Of next
years strawberry crop, is based upon the
fall gros0!h or roots. Come, let us go
cut among the beds, and we will show
you. Nov select plant that has born
fruit this year, rnll it up. there! do you
seel every root is as dead as julius Cesar.
As socn as the berries began to ripen, In
the Spring, the roots did their very pret-
test, and gave all their life to the fruit.
Sometimes we find single thread>with
lingering spark of life in it, (probably
some unfruitful old maid of the family, }
but most of them are dead for aye.
What is to be done? just this: The
crown O. hear; of the plant enfolds the ell
ements of a Eew set of roots, and with
prompt and kind treatment. she will de-
yelope them into healihful being: feed
her as you would generous mother, for
this is her time Of need. Unless the
earth is, or is made rich enough to devel-
ope the new roots in the fall, the next crop
will come feebly to the birth, or not at all.
This peculiar physiological condition of
the strawberry plant, is the reason why
the early fall is the best time in the year
for transplanting, as well as for working
over the old beds. When the beds are
put in order, give them liberal drafts of
liquid manure, and a mulching of fine
straw or spent tan bark upon the surface,
to prevent evaporation, and the plants
will go right ahead and establish them
selves for next years crop.
This lesson was fully explained, illus
trated and enforced, while reveling in an
ample dish of berries and cream, at the
hospitable board of our venerable friend,
UNCLE BEN. STEVENS, of Trumbull Co.,
who never fails of having the same in
their season, and be-strailly charged u
so to tell the CuHivatos>-oILs, hoping
these few lines will ensure them the en-
joyment of the same blessing, to all o.
which we say, Amen, and hereby invite

next crop is ripe Ohio CultiVator.

When the midnight kissed the hill-Iops
In the dew of early morn,
Ruth went out behind the reapers,
Through the golden shocks of corn.
P9tience CLEANED with her the pastures.
Hope sobbed softly in her sighs,
Love lit up her - - -.ng features
With glow of Paradise.
Then said Boaz to the reapers,
''Hers be all that each man leaves;
= Tronhle not the Jewish maiden,
Let her CLEAN among the sheaTes."
Long the master loved to Iinger
Looking backward Ger the plain,
Seeing there sSeeter treasure
Than the summer scented grain.
Ruth no longer haunts the pastures,
sobs no more amid the corn,
Follows not the other neapers
Through the dewy fields of morn.
But the harvest-sons from meadow,
slumb'rOrs hillside, billOEy plain,
Bear the tidings-"she is mistress
Over all the rustling grain"
Thus when Hope and Love and Patience
Clean the pasture God has sown,
Softly sngetsOngs shall welcome
Us, the reapers. es His own.
