WOMEN--THEY ARE PASg EANpANsa
OUT.

moro auHalOrtlS anu more plitck In
woman's nature thanin any other ma
turc cAtant. AL these, however, lie
dormant in a thin sack, woven OF
'nolesty, timidity, coyness and
Bentlcness. Once shake them up
aud you may look out for blaze, ac-
companictl by a peculiar kind Of
thunder
Womcn's flesh is thought by some to
he a contcction, q composition Of
sugar and molasscs, or some other
sacchurinc matter. Grant that it be
all sweetness; yet would have you
know that ullen the acid Of anger, in
suit or iil-nature comes in contact
with it, such nj ctfervcsccncc occurs
as one never saw exempliticd in
gingcr-pop, scdlitz or sola water.
W omen, when Eut out of tune, arc
like summer storms. At fret they
are clou'iy--mnke no noise, but their
thinking machines are busy in mo-
iion. Then comes the thundcr-rip-
ping and tearing thunder! and the
lightning that flashes from their eyes
is enough TO appall the stoutcst Of
hearts. You TALL back in wonder
mcnt, ifnot perfectly amazed. I'm
willing TO retreat further, and not
having chaace or the courage to slip
ina pititnl ''hoo" you stand and
take it like hitghc,l horse in q hail
storm.
When the wrath OF the feminine IT,
nearly expended, you pluck up cour-
age and are down on her with argu-
mcnt, rcason;ig and .epr;msnd; but
is I'LL this going to make her turn
tail! not u bit of it. Having wasted
her thun,ler and lightning, she be-
gins to rain; she knows what effect
TINT will have. With impetuous
showers she drenches the furious
fire that burns in your bosom, and
freshness to every bud and blossom
offeeling. Then you begin to give
in-she begins to clear otE-her sky
grows brighter, she goes to the ex-
pcnse Of u smile, her whole horizon,
landscape and Lady scape, look charm
ing, gay and serene, md you can't
help giving her u kiss, aud acknow-
Lodging beat.
So You see, my friends, that the
women are ! onnd to get the better of
us. In them you behold the Wild
cat, Ian b and dove. If they can ac-
complish nothing by letting loose
their untamc feline propcnsities, they
give the Juvenile sheep trial; and if
that fails they rely upon the loving
dove. With one or the three, they
seldom or never fail to effect their
purpose.
They nrc called the weaker sex;
but with what propriety it is hard
for me to imagine, for l know that
many of them are strong enough to
lift barrel OF beer and drink out
of the tap. They can draw like hor
scs. They draw us to church-draw
US to the thcatrc-Graw us from our
business draw us into trouble-and
draw us to-wcll, anywhere.
TKAsrLASrISG IN THE NIGnr-A
gentleman anxious to ascertain the
effects Of transplanting by night, in
stead of by day, made an expert
mcnt, with the following rcsuits:
He transplanted ten cherry trees
while in bloom, commencing mt four
o'clock i'll the afternoon. Thos,
transplantcd during the daylight
she'd their blossoms, producing little
or no frnit, while those transplanted
in the dark maintained their condi-
ton fully. He did the same with
ten dwarf trees after the fruit Was
ono third grown. Those transplanted
in the day shed their fruit those
transplantcd during the night per-
fectcd the crop and showed no in
Jury from having been removed.
With each of these trees he removed
some earth with the roots The in
cident, if fully vouchcd for, and if n
few similar experiments produce
like result, will he a strong argu-
mcnt to horticulturists to do such
work at night FH~ni Cabinet.
The following lines were pick ed up
on Russell street few days ago.
