THE SEXES.
BY DEZAA.

The celebrated Fontepelle said that "wo-
men have a fibre more in the heart, and a
cell less in the brain than men, The uues-
ton as to the different intellectual capaci-
ties and talents of man and woman has
been frequently agitated, and in most res
poets that they have an equality of mental
power seems to be the final decision
and that in quickne5s of apprehension
and accuracy of discrimination, women
generally excel. Their Imagination is
not surpassed oy the other sex, nor is their
judgment less to be depended on in cases
where they have had mans experience,
and full, free opportunity to compare.
Women generally make rapid progress in all
studies. They are equally capable of atten-
| ton as the other Sex. and their memory is
| equally, If not more retentive. Examine
Woman's composition, on most any subject,
and for its purity and elegance, it is pro
nounced equal, when compared to the pro-
auctions on the same subjects, of
the masculine pen. It is true their
| trophies are not 80 brilliant or great
when compared to man in the studies
"a Hio'aPAy eiCo anu uaLutiItL'cs, YET, upon
these particular branches, they have never
been called upon to put forth ANY great
efforts. The severe application is almost
unnecessary, and many females who having
the mental capacity are debarred from these |
studies by delicate constitutions, and other |
and more indispensable duties. As the |
frame and duties Of men and women differ.
SO should there be q difference in the
studies appropriated to them. 1t is proper
that this distinction should be kept I'D
IN their education, rs well as their domestic
duties. All that is useful. pleasant, and i'm
proving, may be prCtitably cultivated by
women, but the more abstruse and recon-
dite sciences, may well be exclusively the
persuit OF man. 1t is proper for Young
ladies to study the principles of ethics and
moral philosophy. For every accountable
being should be made to understand the
difference between right and wrong of ac-
tons. These, like other faculties, should be
cultivated.
good sound mind always judges cor
rectly. A sensible woman loves to initiate
that order which is stamped on the whole
creation of God. She leaves ambition, and
the desire to soar above this dim speck- ,
called earth" to the sterner sex As the
dew lies longest and produces most fertility
In the shade, SO women IN the shade Of do
nestle retirement sheds around her path
richer and more permanent blessings than

representations of the press on hand, for
few people have higher appreciation of
the fifth estate than the butchers and their
friends, and We are glad to chronicle that
we have seldom been present at more en-

cooked and served up, while the wines
were OF the best vintsges OF France. But
we would be wanting in common gratitude
did We fail to remember that magnificent
cube Of delicious ice cream contributed to
the feast by Mr.. D. Pochelu, Secretary and
Treasurer of the Louisiana Ice Manutactur-

He knew that they had due appreciation
of the delightful ice he manufactures, as |
they have been his customers from the first, |
so he had block of hard frozen cream car

The Chateau de Fleurs is surrounded by |
elegantly Ornamented grounds, upon which |
are growing perfect forest of orange aud |
magnolia trees and flowers of all descrip-

the city for few hours aud enjoying the
pure air of the country delightful place of

good cooks and the most attentive of hosts.
We wish them all success.
