4 WORD TO WIvEs.-A wife may
love her husband and her children,
and may perform her ordinary du.
tics faithfully, and yet ruiz her hus-
band by her foolish ambition. But
let q woman turn on show and seem.
ing rather than on substance and
reality, and she will drive her hus-
band to ruin, unless he is made Of
unccmrnonly good material. She
wishes TO equal the best. She is
ambitious for clothes, Of Il fine but
for him eXtravagant table. She en-
vios every one more prosperous than
her husband is. She wishes n house
II little beyond his means; she will
have clothes not consistent with his
income; she demands expensive
pleasures which suck up his slender
earnings; she brings him in debt,
keeps him fcvcrish with anxiety,
and finally poisona his very honesty.
Many man breaks down in repu-
tation and becomes a castaway un-
der the stimulation Of his wile's
dishonest ambition. For to live
beyond ones means is dishonest,
and to desire to do so is to desire Il
dishonest thing. Leta woman scat
ter faster than her husband can.
gather; let her notions of duty send
her gadding after overybodys bust
ness but her own: let her religion
be severe and ccnsorious, and stand
along the path OF life like a thorn
locust hedge on garden walk,
which priclis and tears everybody
that goes near it; let her secure the
art Of making homo uncomfortable,
and Of tempting her husband to pre-
fer any other place TO it; let her uso
her husband as seamstresses do pin
cushions, to stiok pins in; and, with
ordinary luck she will ruin any
commonly clever fellow in q few
years. Having driven him to q
drunkard's grave, she can muffie
hor martyred heart under the funcr-
al.smclling Grape, and walk in come
" black until some victim helps her
TO again put on her wedding suit.

A Memphis Recognition.

1t is so seldom we see a business re-
cognition of Nashville by Memphis, that
the following from the Ledger, of that
city is worthy Of reprint and commenda-
tion-not only for its truthfulness but its
spirit:
ct III Jones, of Nashville, is the re.
preventative man of one Of the most enter
nrising, publie-spirited and reliable firms
in The South. They have the finest sgri-
cultural warehouse south of the Ohio
river. and are deservedly receiving much
of the Southern trade which has hereto
fore been carried TO Northern markets.
r III Jones & Co.'S Southern Farmers
Depot, . and 4 corner College aud
Cbprch streets. Nashville, Tennessee, is
literally crowded with tine latest and most
useCuI improvements in farming imple-
ments and labor-saviDg machinery. Being
southern men and practical farmers, they
know from experience the agricultural
wants and interests of the country. They
are manufacturing and have exclusive
control of the best wheat-Ian seed
cleaner and smut machine combined
tkat has ever yet been invented, and
from personal knowledge, as we'll as the
hearty endorsement Of many Of the best
farmers, miIlers, grain dealers and busi-
ness men South, we feel safe in saying that
This machine is without a rival, aud is
worthy the attention of all connected with
The farming interests Of our country; be-
-,dc., being home invention and OF hone
manufacture, IL should receive the en-
c,uIaeement of our people"

We have no essential change 10 note
since our last weekly review. Prices re-
main nominally unchanged, though bust
ness has been fair and considerable stuff
changed hands for consumptive purposes
only, the market being entirely void of
anything ike speculative feeling. Stocks
are diminishing in the South, and some Of
our dealers look for more active trade in
this line during the summer months than
usual. Receipts of country stufs have
been liberal, and all offerings have been
taken npat prices that leave but short
margin from store. We quote -ssiIsas

Mo sale.

Efforts were made yesterday 10 sell the
Nichol property on Union street, but there
was anything else but spirited bidding
and the crowd was dismissed with the sug-
gestion that the lots could be purchased at
private sale If desired. There were large
number Of persons present, but those who
really wanted the property were afraid to
purchase in consequence Of the misman-
agement Of corporation affairs. This will
be the case as long as the present men
continue in power, and We need not expect
men 10 buy real estate under the circum-
etances. II such a state Of things con-
tinues much longer, property on the Square
under The hammer, would not command
one hundred dollars an acre.
