OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

TIE WoMAx's JouRSAL.-The friends Of woman
suffrage, who wish to keep the issue clear from
entangiing alliances with other reforms and tho
endless host of individual whims and vagaries-
who would pursue it with the same singleness of
aim that marks the movement in England, and
the temperance and other special reforms in this
country, have established 3 weekly paper, the
Womdns Journal, published in Boston and Chi
cago and edited by Mrs Livermore Mrs. Lucy
Stone, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, Mr.. VIM. Lloyd
Garrison, and Mr.. I. w. Higginson, assisted BY
accomplished friends of the cause. The Wo-
mans Journal is fair and attractive paper in
appearance, while the variety and spirit Of its
articles, and the dignity, self-respect good
humor, and earnestness of its tone, will show
how profoundly mistaken are those who suppose
that folly and extravaganza are necessarily char
acteristic OF the discussion of the question. The
Journal is indispensable to those who would
truly understand the character Of the movement
and measure Its progress-Harper's Weekly.

Evenings at Home.

Evening, IN nine cases out of ten, gives
US the idea of home. That subtle mixture
of personal comfort, of rest, of family affec-
ton, OF social enjoyment, Of abstraction from
the vulgar sides of life, of tender apprecia.
ton of its domestic poetry, which we call
'homo," seems only to be realized when
the hustle of the day is done. The country
parson who meets his family at breakfast,
at luncheon, at dinner, who jostles against
his wife all the morning, and takes his
daughter out for a walk in the afternoon,
retlres quietly to the solitude of his study
when the day goes down. Home is the
general atmosphere Of his life, but he tastes
little OF its most positive and concen.
trated delights. The city merchant, on
the other hand. or the barrister of Lincoln's
inn, has whrled away the office or cham.
bers from breakfast table where he has
buried in bis letters or his papers. He
spends the day in an arid wilderness Of
ledgers or ceases; )" busy, hurried, quick.
tempered, peremptory lawyer or man Of bus.
mess from head to foot. The work has cot
to be done, and he does it keenly and thor.
oughly, but it is not his life. All the man.
hood within him is hung up with his great
coat on the peg behind the office door
Then there is the stroke of four, and the
rush to the train. The whole nature of the
man seems 10 change as he leaves his bust.

Poetry.
dissatisfied.

From golden urns of summer suns
Earth quaffs life's fiery, sparkling wine;
And through her frame new vigor runs,
Thrilling each flower, shrub and vine.
Full radiantly the blossoms glow,
Along the sheltered greenwood vale,
Where itfully the spice-winds blow,
Kissing the wild red roses pale.
The black bird twitters in the corn,
And tmidly replies the wren,
Hidden amid the rugged thorn
That hedges in the narrow glen.
l tread again our favorite walks,
And Gull once more the wildwood flowers,
Whose tiny bells, on swinging stalks,
Ring in and out the summer hours.
| roam beside the meadow brook,
Where once our feet together strayed,
And see again the brown thrush look
From her green covert, half afraid.
| hear the insects drowsy hum,
Commingled with the rustling leaves,
| see the wagons homeward come,
Piled high with the harvest's yellow sheaves
As with soft hand the twilight rolls
A shroud of mist around the day,
Aud from the hollyhocks' red bowls
Chases the murmuring bees away.
And peace, sweet peace broods over all
And things-except the human heart
There darlly still life's shadows fall
And from the gloom pale phan toms start.
And so, while Natures children drain
With JOY the summers glowing tide,
The heart alone, in longings vain,
Remains untitled, unsatisied.

touch of kindly hand, or the light of a pity
ing eye will act like oil on the troubled wa.
tiers, Even men are known to get out Of pa
tlence sometimes, therefore be not asfonished
at woman's occasional lapse of sef-control
do not suppose it at all derogatory to
your dignity to remember the small, sweet
courtesies Of life where your wife is con-
cerned. Why should man be ashamed of
pollteness to his own wife, when he would
step forward in an instant to render like
service to any other lady?
Because man has married woman does

the morning, be careful to present her with
bearts-ease on our return at night. Some
men grow suddenly ashamed of an unassum-
ing pot of fragrant mignonette, if wealthy
friend happens to present them with fow
flowers from his conservatory, and hide it
away in some obscure corner to make room
for the brilliant but scentess exotics. Wives
are not unfrequently treated after similar
fashion and perhaps it would be we'll for
their fastidious ''lords and masters to lot
down the following lines upon the tablets Of
their memories:
GAS the myrtle, whose perfume enriches the
bower

So wife, who a household can skillfully rule,
Is jewel of price to all men-save fool.
