ness and vanity of his heart, hrs poured
against his fairer and better half; (but
we do heartily wish that all such Offend
ers may be brought to speedy and con-
dign punishment, for which purpose we
would recommend jury Of matrons to
be impanecd.) There is, however, one
accusation which is really too unjust to
be passed over in silence, and we shall
therefore say a word or two on the sub
ject Of female constancy.
Fickleness has been an imputed fc-
male fault since the time Of Horace, and
long before, and the sentiment has been
re-echoed by every miSogyniStic satirist,
"Thou art not false, but thou art fickle, "
is the lightest of their accusations.
This charge, comes but poorly from the
| mouth Of man.
''Men were decciyers ever
One foot on the sea and one on the shore
TO one thing constant never
"And this is mans fidelity"
There is one mortal ollensc in women
for which they have been, more than
once, rated soundly by the satirist
"All women," says one Of one of our
maleyoent Old dramatsts, "have six
senses; that is, seeing, hearing, talking,
smelling, touching, and the last, and
feminine sense, the sense Of idikiRg"
| We feel rather inclined to suspect, that
the lords and masters Of this goodly ere
alton would not be very well content to
allow the last of these senses to be the
exclusive privilege Of their fairparlncrs,
SO far indeed from such concession,
they have absolutely monopolizcd the
power of speaking TO the utter exclusion
of those who they contend are so much
their superior in the exercise oft,
Who ever heard of but few ladies
making speeches? We certainly do not
mean TO contend from This that our la
dies are speccdlcSS; but we do say it is
