The Seducer.

She sees him as woman always sees
the man she ioves-noble, ,greal, and good;
for when did a loving woman even believe
a man olherwise?-too noble, too great,
too high, too good, she thinks for her
poor, trivial, ignorant oquette-poor,
childish, irifling Virginne. Ilas he not
commanded armies?-she thinks-is he
not eloquent in the Senate? and yet, what
interest he has taken in her, poor, uniu-
formed, ignorant creatare-she has never
tried to improve herself ill since she knew
him. And he is so considerate too-so
respectful, SO thoughtful and kind, SO
manly and honorable, and has such ten
der friendship for her, such brotherly
and fatherly solicitude! and yet, if she is
naughty or imperious or severe, how
greved he looks! How strange that she
could have power over such a man!
1t is one OF the saddest truths OF this sad
mystery Of life, that woman is often never
so much an angel as Just the moment she
falls into an unsounded depth Of perditiou.
And what shall we say OF the man who
leads her on as an experiment-who
amuses himself with taking woman after
woman up these dazzling, deluslve
nights, knowing, as he certainly must,
where they lead?
We have been told in extenuation Of
the course Of Aaron Burr that he was not

polite society has invented for the man
who does this thing.
Of old, it was thought that one who
had administered poison in the sacrament

is white by the side of his who poisons

stroys a woman's soul through her noblest
and purest afections.-NrS. Stoare in

Make your home both neat and tasteful,
Bright and pleasant, always fair,
Where zach heart will rest cOntented,
Grateful for each beauty there.

By surroundings pure and bright,
Trees arranged with taste and order,
Flowers with all their sweet delight.
Seek to make your homo most lovely,

Where tho flowers aud trees are waving
Birds will sing their sweetest songs,
Where the Pnrrst thoughts will lingur

DEAR SIRs
VIII you be so kind as to permit a remark
in the columns of your paper on Jail visitation;
it does seem to me that these places are much neg
lected Is there not there very frequently present.
ed rare opportunity for tho Christian Minister
or layman to do good, and to communicate; what
is the reason that is so generally overlooked or
despised? We have known some Of the noblest
of men and ministers to have made it a duty Of
regularly visiting the prisons where they reside,
on purpose to seek out the wanderer and the out
cast In our Jail there are some Is or II prison
ers, who would be left p.ey then .ol"cs who'll
ly, on the Sabbath, but for gontlcman, who,
with true christian spirit ana fortitude, has pa
tiently and perseveringy been the only visitor Of
our Jail for the last three or four years We feel
assured that his labor ofove is not in vain in the
Lord.
One, lamenting the general apathy of chris
tians, thus expresses himself. at is an iron age
we live and mems hearts in general are strange
ly hardened to any pity they show to their miser-
able, blind, naked and starving fellows As an
individual I would earnestly and respectfully So
ict the attention of the ministers of the different
churches to this subject, and would suggest that
they unitedly arrange plan whereby one of their
number visit at least once a week. This has been
done by ministers of the gospel in places we know
Of and has been means of much good; and also
that our esteemed friend and brother be not left
to labor alone but have the constant assistance
of some earnest laborer. When our Saviour sent
out the disciples he sent them in twos. In the
last three or four months our all has been visited
by ministers, Rev. Mr.. Young, and Rev. MI
Mckenzie. once each, and for this have learned,

thou shalt in any wise rebukc thy neighbor, and
not suffer sin upon him. For who maketh thee to
differ from another, and what hast thou that thou
didst not receive.7-[l Cor. ". and Z.
