COURAGE OF WOMEN.

There is a branch of general education
which is not thought ct all necessary for
women; as regards which, indeed, it is
well if they are not brought up to cult
waite the opposite.
Women are not taught to be courageous.
Indeed, to some persons, courage may
seem as unnecessary for women rs Latin
and Greek. Yet there are few things
that would tend to make women happier
in themselves, and more acceptable to
those with whom they live than courage.
There are many women of the present
day sensible women in other things,
whose panic terrors are source Of dis
comfort to themselves and those around
them. Now it is mistake to imagine
that hardness must go with courage; and
that the bloom of gentleness and sympa-
thy must all be rubbed off by that vigor
of mind which gives presence of mind.
enables a person to be useful IN peril and
and makes the desire to assist overcome
that sickness efscnsibility which can on
ly contemplate distress and difficulty. So
far from courage being unfeminine, there
is peculiar grace and dignity in those
beings who have little active power Of at
tack or or defence, passing through dan
ger with q moral courage which is equal
to that of the stro, gest. We see this in
great things. We perfectly appreciate the
sweet and noble dignity Of Anne Boleyn,
or Mary Queen Of Scots, or Marie An
toniette. We see that it is grand for
these delicate bred, high-natured, high
mounted helpless personages to meet
Death with silence and confidence like
his own. There is no beauty in fear. 1t
is mean ugly, dishevslled, creature. No
statue can be made of it that woman
would wish to see herself likc.-!Selected.

MEN AND BOYS.

Men are but full grown boys. In
our part of the city yesterday we saw a
number of little boys engaged in playing
marble, and could not help renarking
the tendency to ''fudge" and get as near
the ring as possible. In another part Of
the city we saw men engaged in the mere
game of business, where each manifested
a disposition to overreach and secure the
most advantageous position in the ring
This calls to mind the following contrast,
drawn by an exchange between the games
of boyhood and those of life:-
The satchelled lad carries about in his
bosom under his first jacket, with buttons
down before the man he is to be. He
flies kites to-day, that goes half way to the
clouds, and so he keeps doing; kite flying
becomes life business, instead of a pas
time. He hunts all his boyhood and
changing his weapons and tie game, he
hunts on all through life. He used to
play "BIind mans Buff in the kitchen.
He PLAYS it now in the counting room,
the shop and every where. Now and
then he takes game at Tag" and many
the time he fancied himself a Red Lion
out of his den" since he was boy. and
a very fortunate man he is if some ugly
naturalist does not occasionally set him
down an-animal with better ears than
voice.
He trades still just as he use to swap
knives ''unsight unseen: The game of Il
spv''he has been playing with varying
fortune, ever since he wore boots and a
skirted coat; and it is no secret that all
partydom are adopts to the play "Follow
the leader"
The little aristocrat works his naked
toes in mud pie that subsequently press
es a best Brussels with an air. He has
not changed particle except in stature
and in boots. The boys make snow men
and snow castles; the men continue the
snort till their fingers are icicles and
their hearts down to Zero.
So, is it not true that nearly all of us
repeat our way through the world, and
each year brings an old game with new
name? After while we weary of the
game. The sun is setting, the shadows
are coming on; we cannot see yesterday,
butwe see Day before Yesterday; We
must go home to sleep, and as we go the

TIGHT TAEs.-We have seen many
hard rubs in our days, and have known
what it is to want money, but an old set

toughest times Of any man we ever heard
