THE HAPPY HUSBAND.
The happinees of parties ought always
to follow tia uniou of hands which takes
place at the altar, though we are well
aware that such is not uniformly the case.
It ie, however, we are convinced, mnuch
more frrequently eo than barhelors inag
ine. With tle happy wife we have,
%trict)y speaking. n6 piresent concern; our
business is with the happy husbatd, We
may be permritted. however. to remark by
wav of paranthesi%. that, as we mention.
el last week, %% heneer there is a Ilnppy
lushand. it follows as a sort (af necessary
consequence, that there must ba a happy
wife.
.f is a common observat*"n, and we dare
any that like avimt of the apotheglu int
general circulation, it is Iin accordance
with sound philosophy, iibar every wife
wishes to be a tnolhcr. Sume ra's
spiouse1, we know, profess to ho- no
such wish t but the-e %%ill invariably he
fo'und to ie married ladies t Ito not only
are not. but have no reasonable prospect
of becomiing mothers. And if we coulI
only get at the bottom of the well in n hich
truth is said to have taken up her reni
deuce, we -have no doubt we shoud at
once ie in a condition to snii-v our,.el ve
that these childlebs ladies declaim against
matrimonial "pledges." foir prer.iely ihe
same reason as the fox in the fable did
against the grapes. Reynard discovered
that the grapes %%ere decidedly sour. t:e
moment he iecatne convinced of the hope
lessless of the attempt to reach iiaIn.
Married ladies n ho have no children, and
see no probability caf ever having atny,
display a correspouding alacrity of diji
covering that it is far better to be without
thetm.
It is a reflectinu on the better feelings
and holier aspiraiotns of hunan nature to
nsay, that atny two persons can devotedly
love each other and be Iegally united to
gether, and yet not anxiounaly wish to have
living and lovely illustrations of their tmu
tual affertion. If any sich per mna were
really to be found. we wout a-k twm to
go and recuive the language of sileut but
severe rebul.c from the irrational crea:ion.
The birds of he air anda the beas:s of the
field concur vithuut an exception in Ar
nishing us with the ust conclusive poofs
that a love of osjpring is ote of the ,trcong
est instinects of their nature ; one which
grows with their growth. and strengthen
withtheir stre-th, and only sutTers ex
tinction when tice nhornent has arrived at
,Ahich they themselves art destined to
perish.
The love of children, tbough pehap
more intense in a wotants breast than in
that of nman, is neverthcde4 s oue of the
tost deeply inp!auted passiomc in his
nature alis. To be the father ecf tine or
More children is, in the intinite najority
of ctaes, a "ine qIua ton" to au
happines. To see a stmiling cheridb, and
be able toclaiw its pareolare, is indked to
