LOVE, HONOR, A OBEY.
Promise to love! why, woman-thinks
To love a privilege, not a task;
If thou wilt truly take my heart,
And keep it, this is all I ask.
Honor thee! yes, if thou wilt live
A life of trut]i and purity;
When I have men thy worthiness.
I cannot choose but houor thee.
-Obey! when I have fully learned
Each want and wish to understand,
'I'll learn the wisdom to obey,
If thou hast wisdom to command.
So if I fall in love with thee
In duty, love, and lowliness,
'Tis Nature's fault, or thine, or both:
The greater must c6ntrol the less.
TWO IAWS FOR THE UADIES;
1. Before you bow to a lady in the street,
permit her to decide whether you may do
so or not, by at least a look of recogiition.
2. When your companion bows to a lady
you should do the same. When a gentle
man bows to a lady in your ,company, al
ways bow to him in return.
Nothing is so ill understood in America,
as those conventional laws of society, so
well understood and practiced in Europe.
Ladies complain that gentlemen pass them
by in-the streets unnoticed, when, in fact;
the "ault arises from their own breach of po
litedess. jlt istheir duty to do the amiable
first, for it isa privilege which ladies-enjoy
of choosing thiir own associates or acquai
tances. Nogentlemjn likes to risk the being
cut in the stetsby-a-lay 'tfrotigli a pre
mature salute To.o many ladies, it would
seem, "don't know their trade" of politeness.
Mieting ladies'in the streets, whom one has.
casually met in company, theyseldom..bow,
unless he bows first, and when a gentleman
never departs from the rule of good-breeding,
except occasionally by way of experiment,
his acquaintances do not. multiply,' but he
stands probably charged with rudeness. The
rule is plain. A lidy must be civil to a
gentleman in whose company she is casually
brought; but a gentleman is not upon this
to presume upon acquaintanceship the first
time he afterwar4s xneets ir :--the street.
If it be her will, she gives- some token of
recognition, when the gentleman' may bow
otherwise he must pass-on and consider him
self si-ran-er- No -lady need hesitate t6
bow to a gentle'man, for he will promptly
and politely answer, even if he. has forgot
ten his fair saluter. None but a brute can
do otherwise. Should he pass on rudely,
his ch3acter is declared, and there is a cheap
riddance. - Politeness, or good-breeding, is
like law-" the reason of things."
HINT TO FEMES. WO RIDE .IN CABS.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Coxi-a
mercial is to be credited with the following
seasb'nable anecdote:
A .gentleman entered the "ladies egr"
upon one of the eastern, roads, and as the
day was chilly, appropriated an entire seat
in the vicinity of the- stove. Passengers
crowded in at every station, and spon every
~seat was taken except the one occupied by
h~ 1im~isl Presently two ladies4o th'ey'ap
'the carrang~s no one seem
~eorif''~O6jaftacancyt this owntflis
0 aQriffend, whose gallantry is pro
ver)bal,gathiered up hisshawl, portmianteau
and himself arose, motionied the ladies for
ward, assisted them into the seat, and took
a sta'nding position nek far'distant. Not so
much asa-smiile or a bow' rcognised.. the
kindness-its was evidently considered a
mark of respect due to -female. dignity-a
prl1dleger which any gentleman might be
proud to schnowledge.
" Coolly done," remarked an individual
in juxtaposition to our friend. -
".Decidedly," ws the laughing reply,
"but Il give them-a lesson by and by, and
one they'll be likely to remember."
"Why, thee won't say anything. surely?"
"Indeed, I will-the opportunity is too
good to be lost;" and somewhat annoyed,
it must-be confessed, though less by the
los~s of his seat than by the rudeness of its
ungracious occupants, he walked~ away to
the:window- and occupied his vision with
the things without. Another station-an
other stop-the ladies rose to depart. They
-had nearly reached the door when a clear,
manly vojee called out, " Ladies." There
was a gendral hash, while every eye was
turned uponbhe serene countenance of ocur
trayveler. " Ladies, you have, occupied my
seat during the ride from L--, and I can
not allow you to leave without expressing
my sense of the obligation, also the hope
that when next you enter. a crowded car
and a gentlenian vacates his seat for your
accommodation, you will at least have the
politeness to thank him."
A shout of'applause rewarded the speak
er, and the .ladies;.lowering their confused
faces, retreated hastily, to digest, as best
they might, this suddezg but merited rebuke.
D~id every lady, especially every young
lady, know there is always in everycar,
omnibus, steamboat or other public convey
ance, 'nofwithsitendigthe ordinary external
aspect of its occupants, a self-appointed
jury watching ber~ actions and ready to pass
sentence thereqn, she would look well to
her "manners," and, in cultivating those in
dispensable outward semblances of good
will, she would unconsciously foster the
germs of an active and wide-speading be
nevolence.. Unobtrusive words of kindness
cost nothing beyond the effort of speaking,
and many a -weary pilgrimage has been
brightened, thereby. A simple " Thank
you," coined in the heart and rung upon the
lips with the gennine sound of the " true
metal," Is a more efficlent weapon than the
sword of 'the conqueror.
WOMAI'S fICITS AND) WRONGS.
One of'the surest tests of the progress
which a country has made in civilization, is
the treatment to which females are subject
ed. Whren we say treatment, we mean, of
course, general treatment, for if th1e occa
sional whippings, &c., of ladies by their
liege lords, whiich the local columns of our
journals record, were taken as a eriteriol,I
we are very much afraid that some of our
American-cities wduld rank several degrees
lower in the social scale than Patagonia or
New Zealand. It is the general treatment
which woman receives from man that xe
speak of, and which in our opinion shows,
pretty conclusively, how -far he is removed
from that state of barbarism which degrades
her almost to a .level with the :brutes.
America has always been. noted for the re
spect and courteg.. shown to/the - weaker
se; and Missouri, we see, has lately taken
occasion to improve upon.this courtesy by
granting to the female portion of its opu
laiuon more solid privileges thar . tt of
bigtreated with. politeness. An act has
Jaal been passed in that State ~providig
that ifany persdn1 shall desert lud efgr
Asha nmc worthlessdrnknd . o
from any other cause, fail to provide for
her maintenance, so that she be compelled
to labor for the support of herself and fami
ly, the earnings of any such wife, and any
property, real or persone., purchased by
her, with the proceeds - of her labor, shall
belong to her in her own right, separate and
apart from her said husband, and shall not
be liable for his debts, nor in any manner
subject to his control.
We are strongly in favor of " Woman's
Rights," of this description. Her weakness
should be protected in every possible way.
It is hard enough for her to see the one who,
by every law, human and divine, is bound
to be her protector, desert her for the fasci.
nating. charms of rum, without having her
earnings, upon which her own sustenance
and that of her family depends, snatched
from her by a degraded husband. Let hei
have justice by all means. Free her from
tyranny like this, and we can then afford tc
smile at the insane ravings of those female
reformers, who forget everything except
that they have tongues.-Philadelphia Jour.
nal.
ADvICE TO YOUNG FEALEs.-Never mar
ry a man without the consent of your par.
ents. No matter how much you may fancy
you love him, youtannot expect a blessing
on your union, if you persist in going con
trary to the better judgment of those wh<
are appointed by Providence to watch ove1
and advise you for your good. They o:
course, have had more experience, and are
better qualified to judge than you can be
who are but-just setting forth in the pathwaj
>f life, young, inexperienced, and too ready
to form favorable opinions 'where .your. af
Tections are concerned. Let them be youi
confidants; open your heart to themas soo
as you are aware that anything of this sor
exists. I would confide the secret to my
parents as soon as I would acknowledge i
to my own bosom. Theirs is not the cold
unsympathizing judgment of the world; i
springs from a deep affection and interest ii
'your lasting welfare, for what comfort woul<
it be to them to mar your happiness? You
whom they have watched and guarded fron
helpless infancy, with such undying affectioi
as parents only can feel. Recompense thei:
love, then as far ai ip your power, byconfi
ding in them, and seeking their counsel; bI
assured you will loose; nothing by it; ani
though you might meet with disappointment
now, it will soon pass away, and in afte:
years you will be attended by the blessing
of Him. who has said,.".Honor thy fathei
and-thy. mother.'-Advocatle and G'uardian
A HARD ClsE.-Poor people have ahar<
time in this little world of ours. Even i
matters of religion, there is a vast differene
between Lazarus and Dives, as the followinf
anecdote, sent us by a friend, will illustrate
Old Billy G- had attended agrea
revival, and in common with many others
he was converted, and baptized. Not man;
weeks afterwards, one of his neighbors me
him reeling home from the court ground
with a considerable brick in his hat.
" Hello, uncle Billy," said the friend
" I thought you had joined the church."
"So 1 did" answered uncle Billy . makin1
a desperate effort to stand stil1g "so I did
eema anid would a bin a riglit dwn goo<
Baptist if they hadn't a treated me so evex
lasting mean at the water. Didn't you nes
er hear about it JeemsV'
" Never did."
"Then Il tell you all about it : You se
when we cum to the baptizin' place, tha
was me and old Jenks, the rich old 'Squir
war to be dipped at the same time. W ell
the minister tuck the 'Squir in fust but
didn't mind 'that much as I thought 'twouli
be jest as good when I come; so he led hin
.ini'and after dippin' him under he raisedhin
up mitey~ keerfbi and wiped all the water o1
his face and led him Out. Then come m;
turn, and instead of lifting me out like h
did the 'Squir he give me one slosh, an
left me crawlin' about on the bottom like
d-n-d mud turkie!"
gg Chesterfield was at a rout in Franc
where Voltaire was one of the guests. Chef
terfield seemed gazing about the brilliani
circle of ladies. Voltaire accosted him:
" My lord,I know yqu are a judge: whic)
are the more beautiful, the English or th
French ladies ?"
"Upon my word,"' .replied Chesterfield
with his usual presence of mind, " I am n~
judge of paintings."
Some time afterward Voltaire, being i~
London, happened to be at a nobleman
party with Chesterfield. A lady in the donm
pany, prodigiously -rouged, directed he
whole discourse to Voltaire, and engrosset
his whole conyersatiotn. Chesterjield cama
up, tapped himnson the shoulder, and said,
"Sir, take cai-ethat you are not captive
ted.", -
" My lord," returned the French wit, "
scorn to be taken by an English craft undo
French colors."
IIAn innocent young sportsman, ii
order to shoot a squirrel onthe top of a smnal
tree, climbed another one close by ; and, oi
being asked the reason for so foolish a freak
said "that he didn't want to strain his gur
by a long elhot."
gg A wealthy but miserly old man
dining down town one day with his son at i
restaurant, whispered in his ear : " Tom
you must eat for . to-day and td-morrow.'
"0O, yes," -retorted the half starved lad
" but I haint eaten for yesterday and the dal
before yet, faither'!"
A -fell6w -who flte a 'wretchec
hand, and made alinosti as bad a fist at spel
ling and grammar, gave -as an excuse foi
the-deficiencies of his education, "that hi
never went to school but one afternoon, anc
then the master wasn't there."
gr Paddy O'Rafferty was lately suma
moned to court for refusing to pay his doc
tor's bill: Judge-" Why do you refuse tc
pay'?" Paddy-" What fomnshould I pay
shure did he give me anything but some
emeties, and the divil a one could I keep or
my stomach at all, at all."
- g A man in .Wisconsin, recently ad.
vertising his farm for sale, winds up in thq
following language:
" The surrounding country is- the most
beautiful the God of-nature ever made. The
scenery is celestial divine; also two wagons
to sell and a yoke of steers."
gg A certain gallant editor thinks when
a single gentleman cant pass a clothes line
without counting all the long stockings, it is
a sign he ought to get married, and' the
sooner the better.
gg~ A- subscriber writes to an American
editor in the -West: "1 don't want' your
paper any longer'" To which the ieditor re
plied: "Twoufdn't makeit ny lolrirMyu
di it pr-o eln innath ante von waarurl."
