[From the Darlington Southerner.] The Picture of* Doniaitie Tyrant 8kktcuk? F50SI JtATURB BT MRS, WIM.IA MM w* ?? ,'? ?. Man ii? by natura far more tyrannical thnn Woman. Believing his uiistiimi is to rule, he wishes to see all etvation under his leet. He lord* it over his servants, his clerks, hin horses und hin dogt, and, poor woman, over his wife too. Mrs. Chubb was an augcl of n Woman ; she Was pious, amiable, gentle?ittdeutl shu was. every t hi ng that a woman ah mid ho. Hut she had one great weakness ; she thought that aho vriu bound to bear nil Mr. Chubb's snubbing* and bearish nes* without a reply, or it' she did re ply, it was to aay ''thank you." "Churles" was her law-giver, her master, whose frown she feared, whose scowling brow put he* almost into fits, ntid whose commands she would sooner kill herself than not obey. In a word Mrs. Chnbb was the abject slave of Mr. Chubb. Bettering that woman is the crjual of mno, .that he has no more rignt to rule her thn i she *** to calk." "O, dear, luv?," ehe t*portulsted, 'don't, I prmj. Charles trill be very angry." "1 d<m't care fur f hatI sajd, She fairly grqtn?d. "Plea***, my d^ir"? *?t this juncture Charles walked in. J/<- w?h polite enough in his reception of dm-, but wm? .rvidently thinking more of bow lie c uld make himself comfortable than ho wan of inc. Mrs. Chwtob, poor little woman, ? j? all in a flurry. *nd actually jumuod when hvf lord growjod /rat, "hand we my slipper*, limb." She atood meekly putting thorn on bis groat feet as he ? brunt them oat, while be Dover us much us raid, ' thank you." "Now these little* attention* aro plcgamnt to jtiebold when they are the frco will offerings of fofftj V*t who* they u4 us'.??rf?!'> ah i ri^ht, I thoy become only a meaningless ceremony? something tlint create* a reeling of disgust. Tea being over, I, nothing heeding Mrs. Cltubb's warning, essayed a few remarks, which Mrs. Chubb, merely replied to, and thon became dumb as Memnou when the sun does not shine on him. Again I spake. She put her finger to her lips, but 1 did not heed the mule sign?the signal of distress. '?Charles" looked up nt me with an impatient glance, which I pretended not tc notice. I insisted on talking; why should I remain dumb because 31 rs. Chubb's bird and master wished to read. If he could not rend where I was talking, let him go to bis room: I had rights to be respected as well ms Mr. Chubb; nil the rights are not on the side of the men. the women have some too, I mid talking is certainly one of our rights. This I argued to Mrs. Chubb, after Mr. Chubb had closed bis book with a surly look ( and gone off to bed. "Poor, dear soul! I do pity you." "For what ?" she asked with wonder. '?Such nn swful husband !" 14Why, my dear!" she exclaimed with amazement, ??Charles is devoted to me." "Spare me such devotion." ??She smiled a ?ort of woe-begone smile that spoke more of endurance than gladness. "Such a tyrant; we must sit hero in dead silence and look at him. because be chooses u? to do so." "But. my dear, you know he must read.? ??And I must talk ; I did not come to sec you to sit mum all evening. No member of a fain* ilj has any rl^bt to come into the fimi ly-cirele of an evening and say to the others, or you must .tot talk, or you must not i sing, because it does not suit my pleas urc to bear you. I want to read, so you all must sit around silent as the wax-figures in Mrs. Tassaud's show, and look at me ; it will be very entertaining and improving employ ment for you ; it will be particularly good for thc Women, for it will learn thom how to be silent, something they have not yet learned. I say any member of a family that docs this is a domestic tyrant?and your "Charles" rfimow on.Irr that head " She replied, meekly, tbe bead of a family has a right to do as he pleases." "Indeed V and so Henry, the 8th. bad a j right to decapitate his wiv?s ; because be was the head of the family, hu thought that these poor woman could get along Very well without tin ir heads. Let a woman once say to a man, by words, looks, or acts, -you arc the head of the house, you have n right to do just as you please," and who can tell where his tyranny will etil. Xo, no; you must teach "the head of the bouse" that you have rights as well as he has; that you have your wishes and your preferences too. Say to him, in the words of the old poet, say it in pr?fte, if you please, "I Was not taken out of your side, sir to be tram pled upon; but I was taken out of your side to be your equal.*' "But you know tbe master of the house"? I interrupted her, ''is not the master of every living soul in it." But you know, my denr, the head of the house"? '?J'roperly speaking is the woman." "That was not what I was going to say." '?Of course not; nothing was farther from your thoughts.*' "I was going to say "t!ie head of tbe house, frequently likes silence of an evening when he is reading. "Did you ever know a woman the other i head of the house, for a bousu has two heads, nnkiiiiw?so supremely selfish, as to pick up Hok, and say, "hush, all of you! 1, the Ht I. am about to read? Let there be a Bound i'ilcnee; no body must talk, for 1 B|?t read''. Oh! no; it is reserved lor the Hs of creation to achieve this pinnacle of ?b-h tyranny. I'his is only one of the phases of Mrs. ibb's "dear Charles' " Helfishncss and ty uical meanness. If be was the only man > thought, because be was "the head of the sc" he bad a right to behave as disagree ; as be pleased. 1 might have passed over matter in silence. But there are a great jy Mr. Chubbs', and I want them to under id that they have no more right to lord it it ?r theiv wives than their wives have to lord Mhvor them; and that women have rights tJJ wishes, and they must learn to respect ?u')H- )#l fht?m understand that thia world I?auJ-j^uiu^^^ut ujcn only. - ' ' I Acte PflHst'd and Approved.
