1D COVrT O JOV. Tim Court ef Jove was once convened, And thus the question ran: Which holds the greatest sway on earth, The female Pace or man ? The hall was full-the gods were there The subject to debate, While goddesses for woman plead, Until the hour was late. Old Time then left his dusty seat, Where for ages he bad been, To tell to those assembled there, What his sharp eye had seen. "I saw," said he, " a warrior como, Triumphant from the field, With laurels fresh upon his brow, Which had his courage sealed. But while he made his vietorous boast, To valor breathed his vow, An arrow speed froza woman's eye Soon laid the warrior low. I saw a monarch on his throne, A sceptre in his hand Dependent subjects at his feet, And a realm at his commanJ.. rut 'twas his lot to be subdued Vis freedom found a grave, For woman came-and by her charm. The king was made a slave." "In fine," said he, " I looked on man, Ferocious, savage, wild, Until his lawless soul was tamed By nature's fiirest child. IHer smiles have a subduing power, Her tears resistless might Her voice a tone that thrills the heart Her eye, an orb of light. "And now," said he," another word, And then my task is done; That is-without her, man's a blank Creation has no nun." G00D WIVESA WANT 0 'E TIMES. This is the rather startling caption of an article in a late number of the Boston Ol. ive Branch-. If the allegation be indeed true, then it is- high time there' were some "Men's Rights Conventions," for the pur pose of bringing about a reform. All the wrong, defects, and oppression we are satis flied, do not lie on the men's side of the house. We are not willing to bear more than half of the responsibility that attaches to society for tho evils it creates. If there is a want of good husbands, there is an equal want of good wives, and it will do neither the one nor the other any harm' to be told-the truth plainly. We copy a portion of the-artiele referred to, and ask young ladies, who are looking out for good husbands, to give it their serious considera tion. As the lady reader looks at the subject of this article, she adds, " Good husbands, also, are a want of the times." It may be so. But one thing at a time. We have act our pen in motion to write on our selected sub. ject. And now for the proof of our pro position. We will first give some testimony. We rallied a young man, the other day, upon his leading a bachelor life. He replied, " I cannot af ford to marry. My income will not support a family with the present style of living and the general expectations of wives, who, ins these times, are rather unemployed ladies than wives or helpmates. If wives wore what they used to 'be, and would de as they used to do, I should marry, and I eould afford to marry." Another witness has been put by us on the stand upon this subject, and he says he is "afraid to marry a city girl, and country girls he is not acquainted with them, nor has he time to cultivate their acquaintance. City girls are pretty playthings," he says, " but they are not hopeful candidates for wives. T[hey knowv how to sing, to play upon instruments, to dance and to dress. T[hey are gifted in small talk, are agreeable companions for an hour, but have not the substantial qualities for wiv-es. They do niot know how to make good bread, nor even how to superintend the cook. They do not understand domestic duties generally, nor howv to render home attractive and happy. There are exceptions to these cases, but the exceptions are so rare, that my chance wvould be next to none of be comimg acquainted with a lady who would be an exception to the generally existing facts." Another old married gentleman adds his observation and experience as follows: " young men, generally, dare not, and can not afford to marry in these days, for the expense of house-keeping are such that they cannot meet them. A young married wo man in the cities, or their neighborhood, must dress a good deal, must have costly furniture, and a house to correspond; must keep tw~o or certainly one female domestic, and live in style, and keep up appearances. On the contrary, my wife, wvhom I married wvhen a young man, was from the beginning. a wire, a helmate to me. She took care of all I brought into the house. She worked willingly and diligently with her hands. She did her full share in labor, in saving, and in planning; so that the handsome for tune I now possess might be accumulated." Enough on the score of testimony. Observation bears us out in saying that good wives are a want of the times. They may be found among the mountains of Ver mont, and among the hills of Newv Hamp shire, and amid the forests of Maine; but they are not plenty hereabouts. Not long ago, an active merchant in this city sicken. ed and died, and it was attributed very much to his pecuniary embarrassments. He was once reputed to be well-to-do in the world. His family were extravagant, very extrava gant. The merchant lived up to his income, and beypond it, when the hard times came, and the result was business, ruin and death, his wife is said to have been far more guilty than he, in bringing him to such an end. This is a representative of many similar cases. Other men do not die a natural, but only a business death, which some honora ble merchants think is worse than a natural death. How many failures, could the cause of them be searched into might be attri buted properly to the want of good domes tie and economical wives. The expsrience of many a husband as he traces those lines, will respond to the truth of,'iimn. How vain for a man "to rise early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows," if he has a wife who is a help. eat, help-spend, help-waste instead of a helpmeet. It is obvious, that good wives are a want of the times, from the fact that our young men to so great.au extent, do not marry for " marriage is -honorable in all," and al nrost all young metr would-seek the honera-. ble state of matrimony, if they could find those good wives that their income would support. If any one will take the pains to look-abroad, especially in our cities, he will a.d tant yong men do not marry, na gren erally as they used to do, and we believe the true and principal cause has been hinted at. WOMN. What a blessing was there bestowed on man, when the Supreme Being in his good ness and benevolence, created woman to be his partner in life, the sharer of his sorrows and afflictions, the consoler of his grief, and a check on all of those passions, which in duee him to do evil and transgress the laws of that Almighty Power, who bestowed upon him this great and inestimable blessing. How dreary would be man's lire if it were not for woman. She who can ever overlook his every fault, sustain and bear with him, though crime stain his brain, even unto the last, and then if need be, will lay down her precious life, that his might be saved. How often do we behold her, when abused and insulted by some cruel monster, who is un worthy to be called man, still standing by him in the hour of trouble, receiving that abuse and insult with the never dying hope, that perhaps he will ere long turn from his evil ways, and seek the path of honor and rectitude, until, as the last sad stroke, she enters an untimely grave, by the blood stained hand of that ruffian who solemnly swore at the marriage altar, to live, cherish, and protect her, until death, from whence there is no relief, should finally and forever part them in this sin cursed world. How often do we see her trusting in the honor of man, until at last she is robbed of that p:iceless em-her virtue-and then to shield herself from disgrace and ignominy destrovs herself by her own hand, and that villain who has caused her to do this, is still considered as an honest and upright man, by most, if not all of mankind. Shame, 0! shame, on such a state of things, espe cially in an enlightened land, where kinow ledge is shed abroad, and religion pretends to have an influence. Arise-Arise, 0 ! ye, that still have a least spark of humanity re maining in your veins, and shake off this unhallowed notion, and then go on until woman shall be elevated to that high stand upon which the -Almighty designed she should be placed, and then will ye be well worthy the sacred name of mankind. A MoTUER's TEARS.-There is a touch ing sweetness in a mother's tears, when they fall upon the face of her dying babe, which no eye can behold without imbibing its influence. Upon such hallowed ground the foot of profanity dares not approach. Infidelity itself is silent and forbears its scoffings. And here woman displays not her weakness, but her strength of attach ment which can never in its fullest intensity be realized. It is perrennial, dependent on no clime, no changes-but alike in storm and sunshine-it knows no shadow of turn ing. A father, when he sees his child going down to the dark valley, will weep when the shadow of death has fully come over him; and as the last parting nell falls on his ear, he may say. " I go down to the grave of my son mourning." But the hurry of business draw~s him away ; the tear is wviped from his eyes and if, when he turns from his fire side, the vacancy in the family circle reminds hinm of his loss, the succeeding day blunts the poignancy of his grief, until at length it finds no permanent sea in his breast. Not so with her who has borne and nourished the tender blossom. It lives in the heart where it was first entwined in the dreaming hours of night. She sees its play ful mirth or hears its plaintive cries; she seeks it in the morning, and goes to the grave to weep there. SIMPLICITY IN Damss.-Those who think that in order to dress well it is necessary to dress extravagantly or grandly, make a great mistake. Nothing so w~ell becomes true feminine beauty as simplicity. We have seen many a remarkably fine person robbed of its true eff'ect by being over dressed. Nothing is more unbecoming than overloading beauty. TJhe stern simplicity of the classic tastes is seeni in the old statues and pictures painted by men of su perior artistic genius. In Athens, the la dies were not gaudily, but simply arrayed, and we doubt whether any ladies have ever excited more admiration. So also the nmohle old Romans, whose superb forms were gazed on delightedly by men worthy of them, *were always very plainly dressed. Fashion often presents the hues of the but terfly, but fashion is not a classic goddess. [Geo. D. Prentice. Wit_*b Snor. I11lrAwTNG ROOM. Hydrophobia is quito prevalent in Franmce this summer. Mr. Kendall, in his last letter to the Picayune, tells the following story : " On one of the hottest of the recent hot days, Taxile, who is a very fat manm, got into the coupe of a diligence ruiining to Arpajon, and there found another man as fat as himself. Tihe coupe held but three ordinary persons-there was barely room and no comfort even for the two then in possession-but soon Rajou stopped the vehicle and crow-ded himself in. Under such circumstances the hitter should have been quiet, should have accommodated him self to any physical discomfort of his own choosing ; but being a wag, ho bethought him of a plan to get the coupe all to him. self. Seating himself between the two fat men, he began to eye them in a sinister man uer, commenced wvrithing about in a strange and wild way, growled soniethinig after the style of an exasperated our, amnd then set to work gritting and grinding his teeth as with ill-suppressed rage, biting his lips, anid rol lng his eyes from one to the other as though savage enough to eat them up alive. It may readily be conceived that the situa tion of the twvo fat men wvas now anything but pleasant or agreeable, but Taxilo was Ithe first to speak: " What is the matter with you, my good man!i and what do you roll your eyes about and grind your teeth in that savage manner for !" " I hope I shall not bite you !" responded Rajou, apparantly with great eff'ort; I will endeavor not to bite either of you, but am not responsible for consequences! "Bite us! mon Dieu !" ejaculated both Ithe fat men in a breath; " you haven't got the hydrophobia, have you ?'" "I-I-I hope not," continued Rajou, still gritting his teeth, " but I was bitten k a mad dog a fewv days since, and I begin to think I have the premonitory symptoms ofy hydrophobia !" " In less than two seconds after this last emark Rajon had the coupe all to himself, while thme two fat men were seen bolting cross the fields as though forty mad dogs were after them, and puffing and blowing ike porpoise. The aff'air might have ended ore had notthe wag boasted of his exploit, the particulars of which getting to the ears f Taxile's friends, he was so quizzed that n his rage he sought omnt Rajou, and gave im the thrashing complained of. The chastise the hoaxer, and oompelled thef'tt cattle-dealer to pay 25 francs for the as sault." COUNTING IN RIGHT STTL. "Get eout you nasty puppy; let me alone or I'll tell your ma I" cried out Sally - to her lover Jake - , who sat about ten feet from her pulling dirt from the chimney jan. " I arn't techin' on you, Sal," responded Jake. " Well, perhaps you. don't mean to nuth er ; do yer V" "No, I don't." " Cause you're too tarnal scary, you long legged, lanternde jawed, slab-sided, pigeon. toed, gangle-kneed, owl you-you bain't got a tarnal bit o'sense ; get along home with you." " Now, Sal, I love 'you, and you can't help it, and ef you don't let me stay and court you, my daddy will sue your'n for that cow he sold hin t'other day. By jingo, he said he'd do it." " Well, look here Jnke-if you want to court me, you'd better do it as a white man does that thing-not set off there as if you thought I was pizen." How on airth is that Sal!" "Why, sidle right up here, and hug and kiss me, as if you really had some of tho bone and sinner of a man about you. Do you spose a woman's only made to look at, you fool you? No; they're made for "practical results," as Kossuth says; to hug and kiss and sich like." " Well," said Jake, drawing a long breath " if I must I must for I do love you Sal ;" and he commenced sidling up to her, like a maple poker going to battle. Laying his arm on Sal's shoulder we thought we heard Sal say: " That's the way to do it, old hoss; that is acting like a white man orter." "Oh, Jerusalem and pancakes !" exclaim ed Jake, if this ain't better than any apple sass ever marn made, a darned sight! Cracke-ee ! buck-wheat cakes; slaps-jacks and lasses aint nowhar long side of you Sal! oh, how I love!" Here their lips came to gether, and the report that followed was like pulling a horse's hoof out of the mire. BLIND TO HIS OWN INTERST. The St. Louis Intelligencer relates the following amusing incident as having occur red there a few days ago: One of the Health's sprinkling wagons, used to dampen the streets of our city by water from a large reservoir, containing several hogsheads, was proceeding slowly down Fourth street, engaged in the laudable task of flooring the dust, when the attention of a raw Hoosier was attracted towards the singular looking vehicle. "Hullo, stranger," said he, addressing himself quite audibly to the driver, "you're losing all of your water thar!" No answer was made by the person ad dressed. "1 say old hoss," said the Hoosier, "you're losing wjater right smart thar, I tell you, and 'll be dog-on'd if your tub wvon't be dry, next thing you know." The driver wvas still silent. The stranger again addressed John ; " Look here, you fool, don't you see that sonmethin's broke loose with your old cistern on wvheels, anid that all o' your water is leaking out !" Still the driver was silent, and the Hoosier turned away in disgust, saying: I 'll allow that that ieller is a little of the biggest fool I ever did see, but if lie is so blind to his own interest as to throw his la bor awvay in that ther way, let him do it and be d-d." A GENTLEMAN having engaged to fight a main of cocks, directed his feeder in the country, who was an Irishmen, to pick out two of his best and briing them to town.I Paddy made his selection, put the two into a bag and brought them wvith him in the wag on. When they arrived, it was found that on their journey they had almost turn each to pieces; on wvhich Paddy was severely taken to task for his stupidity in putting both cocks into one bag. " Indeed-" said the honest libernian, " I thought there was no danger of their falling out, as they wero going to fight on the samtie side." AN InIsnuAN called on a lady and gen -teman, in wvhose employ lie then was, for thme purpose of getting some tea and tobacco. "I had a dream Ilast night your honor," said lie to the gentleman. "What was it, Pat. ?" "Why, I drained that yer honor made me a present of a plug of tobaccy, and her ladyship there-heaven bless her !-gave me some tay for the good wvife." " Ah, Pat, drems go by contraries, you kow." " Faith, and they may be that," said Pat, wihout the least hesitation, " so her lady ship is to give the tobacey and his honor the tay!1" A YOUNG UMCHIIN being severely repri manded by his mnother for saying " hell," re membered the chastisement, aind on the fol lowing Sabbath wvhen the minister in preach ing used the wvord, leaped up and exclaimed, "By jingo! if you had my mother to dleal with, you wouldn't swear that wvay without gitting licked, I know." "Poppy, what is promotion !" "It is being elevated." " Well, then, I suppose you wvas promoted the other day, when Mr. Jones elevated you out of his basement with his right foot. " Mary, put that boy to bed, and if he says another sassy wtord to-night, I'11 throw the mop at his head." A YANKEE, pedlar, recommending a sale, said that one of the same kind of scythes was so sharp, that they hung it on a tree, in Kentucky, and its shadow cut a man's leg off! " MoTHER, I wocld not lie surprised if our Susan gets choked seine day." ~ " Why any son" " Because her beau twisted his arms around her neck, and if she had not kissed him to let her go, ho would have strangled her the other night."
