WOMEN-TAEY ARE PAST FINDANs
OUT

moro squaiiortis and more pluck in
woman's 8 nature than in any other ma
turc cxtunt. All these, however, lie
dormant in thin sack, woven OF
rno'lesty, timidity, coyness and
gentlcness. Once shake them up
nnd you may look out for blaze, ac-
companicd by q peculiar kind Of
thunder
Womcn's flesh is thought by some to
he confection, composition of
sugar and molasscs, or tomc other
saccharinc matter. Grant that it be
all sweetness; yet would have you
know that hen the acid Of anger, in
suit or ill-nature comes in contact
with it, such M effervcsccnce occurs
as one never saw exemplificd in
ginger-pop, scdlitZ or sofia water.
Women, when Tut out Of tune, are
like summer storms. AT fret they
are clouiy-mukc no noise, but their
thinking machines are busy in mo-
tlon. Then comes the thundcr-rip-
ping and tearing thunder! and the
lightning that flashes from their eyes
Is enough TO appall the stontcst Of
hearts. You TALL back in wonder
mcnt, fnot perfectly amazed. I'm
willing 10 retreat further, and not
having chance or the courage to alip

storm.
When the wrath Of the feminine /.
nearly expended, you pluck up cour-
age and are down on her with argu-
mcnt, reasoning and rcprimand; but
is all this going 10 maize her turn
tail: not bit Of it. Having wasted
her thun,ler and lightning, she be-
gins to rain; she knows what effect
that will have. With impetuous
showers she .lr.nchcs the furious
fire that burns in your bosom, and n
freshness to every bud and blossom
Of feeling. Then you begin to give

grows brighter, she goes to the ex-
pcnse Of u smile, her whole horizon,

help giving her kiss, and acknow-
Lodging beat.
So you see, my friends, that the
women are ound to get the better of
us. In them you behold the wild
cat, lnmb and dove. II they can ac-
colnplish nothing by letting loose
their untanc feline propcnsities, they
give the Juvenile sheep trial; and If
that fails they rely upon the loving
dove. With one Of the three, they
seldom or never fail to effect their
purpose.
They arc called the weaker sex;
but with what propriety it is hard
for me to imagine, for 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 cthcatrc-Graw us from our
business draw US into trouble-and
draw us to-well, anywlrere.-Er.
TKAsrLASTISG IN THE EIGnr.-A
gentleman anxious to ascertain tile
effects Of transplanting by night, in
stead of by day, made an expert
mcnt, with the following results:
lie transplantesl 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
fn,x ,1uncf frnns ,fto, ~, c.,:L
ono third grown. Those transplanted
in the day shed their fruit; those
transplante,i during the night per-
iectcd the crop and showed no in
jury from having been removed.
With each Of these trees nc removed
some earth with the roots. The in
ritlcnt, if fully youchcd for, and if a
few similar experiments produce
like result, will he Il strong argu-
mcnt to horticulturists to do such
work at night.-FH~I Cabinet.
