Grant tried making war upon But
Ter once, but the Beast prepared a
nine column article on Ulysses for the
New York Hcrdid, which was put in

Grant read the damaging review Of

to his bosom, made him familiar
friend, and elevated him to the posi-.
ton Of counsellor and confidential ad

Woman's Influence On "Home."

How often have you noticed, patient read.

were filed with an undefnable air of ease,
pleasautness, sociality, life, light and home
likeness. The furniture might not be espe-
caly remarkable, the walls neither covered
with expensive paper nor the ceilings fres-

and the mantel piece Of wood instead of mar

yourself there. and going away, carried With
you bright memories and cheerful spirit.
If you stopped to analyze the causes of your
agreeable sensations, you will have remember
ed there was plenty of light, few paintings,
or at least engravings, and a good engraving
is much to be preferred to poor painting;
some books, and above all, supplementing all,

was magnetic, whose whole atmosphere was
joyous and refined. There might or might
not have been wealth. but assuredly there
was good breeding, a cultured mind and

cial, good, bad or Indifferent, the home will
be pervaded, ruled dominated BY the spirit
of the wife. Children will love it or hate it,
gladly remain at or return to it, or fly from
it on all possible occasions, just as it is enli-
vend by sympathy or rendered gloomy by care
or moroseness. The most tickle and thought.
less man often, and the jaded, over burdened-
yet kindly man always turns with irrepressi,
BILE yearning to the seclusion, the rest, the
free intercourse of homo. There, if anywhere,
he finds innocent and substantial enjoyment:
there, if at all, rcpose which is yet happiness.
Woman's kingdom, if it be circumscribed
one, may be made equally despotie and allu-
ring, governed at once with an absolute sway.
and an irresistible attraction. Ifmother Eve
was all-potcnt for evil, her daughters are G.
qually powerful for good. 1t is the feminine
influence which preserves the world from gross
ness and corruption, in so far as it is saved
therefrom, and it is the daily example and ex-
hortation of good and discreet women which
prevent the subsistence of the great majority
of mankind into sensuality, sefshness and
vice. If womaEkind sometimes mistake the
