Whom To Mary.-When young
woman behaves to her parents in a man
ner particularly tender and respectful,
from principle as well as nature, there
is nothing good and gentle that may not
be expected from her in whatever condi-
tion she may be placed. Where Ito ad-
wise friend as TO his choice of wife,
my first counsel would be, "look out for
one distinguished for her attention and
sweetness to her parents" The fund Of
worth and affection indicated by such
bevhavior, joined by the habits Of duty
and consideration thereby contracted,
being transferred to the married state,
will not fail to render her mild and
obliging .companion-Star.

me for it openly, save by tender glances
and pressnres of the hand, and those
thousand delicate attentions which are
most precious to the jealous eyes and
cares Of affection. But ! did not dream
that such passion as mine could be
pourd forth and bring me no return.

no JEWELLED BEAUTY il MY LOVE.

No jewelled beauty is my love;
Yet in her earnest face
There's such world of tenderness,
She needs no other grace.
Her smiles and voice around my life
In light and music twine,
And dear, 0 very dear to me,
Is this sweet love ofmine.
Joy to know there's one fond heart
Beats ever true to me;
II sets mine leaping like a harp,
In sweetest melody.
My soul upsprings Il DEITY,
To hear her voice divine.
And denr, Overy dear to me,
Is this sweet love Of mine.
If ever / have sighed wealth,
Twas nll for her, trow;
And if win tame's victor wreath
Ill twine it ON her brow.
There may be forms more beautiful,
And souls Of SUMMER shine;
But none, O none so dear to me,
As this sweet love oflnlne.

Where chilly winds, and tenpests ever wail

On GENDER.-Punch slanderously says
1.-The sun is called masculine, from his
supporting and sustaining the moon, and
finding her the wherewith to shine, and
being obliged to keep such family Of
stars. The moon is feminine, because
she is constantly changing, just like a
ship blown about by every wind. The
church is feminine, because she is mar
ried to the State; and Time is masculine,
because he is trihed with by the women.
