[From Mio Cit-cinnati Weekly Times.") Marriages and Homes. by nelly marshall m'aFF.B Every woman entertains her own positive, peculiar, and distinct ideas upon theso two subjects, Marriages and Homes. Miuo, if candidly expressed in those modern times, may seem bizarre ami outre, but they cuu. at least, claim the distinction of beiug the moral and social convictions of au intelligent human being. To give full expose of my opinions I will probably find myself assumilit;, in my essay, the form of a minister's aor mon ? with a '"secondly" and "thiruly, ' und, for aught I know, a "-fillhly" au 1 "sixthly," before tho "lastly"' c >inei, for the subjects arc two whose b iro contemplation awakens my though', an 1 fires my heart with a divine glow. Somewhere?a long while ago?I read a paragraph not longer than my little finger, but it was so lull of cuu densed soul and sense that I committed it to memory. It ran thus : "Six things are requisite to create n 'happy home,' Integrity must bo tho architect, and tidiness the upholsterer, It must bo warmed by affection, aud , lighted up with ckecrl'ullnoss, aud in dustry must be the venlila or, renewing the atmosphere, and bringing in fresh salubrity day by day; glory and a canopy, nothing will suifico except tho glory of God." This paragraph awakened me to a sincere study of social aud marital re lutions as they do, and as they should, exint; and my study has enabled mo to erystalizc into au c.-siy the convictions born of that profound contemplation. Of course, I confine myself within the strict jurisdiction of the feminine sphere ; and I do this consciously ail 1 iiiivbcdly, because 1 know what ought to be required ol men As a cousc quenee l address my own sex, collective ly and individually. Young ladies enpro^sed with the i lea of biidal veils, and orange blossoms, and handsome frt.nsscaux, seldom it' ever i give a thought, unless vaguely, to the ha] piness un.d content incut th.it is to come?or is not to come?as a life long crowu of glory, after the marriago ceru ?mony aud houoymoon arc over aud gone. I -Sometimes they choose lazy men ; sometimes thoy fall in love with a moustaohe, or a fast young man who ?dances .^gracefully and rides horsobuek well, whoso (pantaloons are fashionably cut, whose 'boots are always well polish od, whose hair is pomaded and artificial ly curled and who perfumes himself with Low's aud 13uzin's, aud Lubiu's extracts, as IUnamol perfumes his gilt edged paper and enibos:-ed envelopes ? to distraction ; who loafs around and is afraid 4-o work, lor fear of spoiling his bauds, or his clothes; who is always "going out to see a man who dislikes water as much as a dog docs when alllioted with hydrophobia ; and who hns abolished the Sevcuth Command ment ninety-nine and otic times; en href, a good lor-nothiug dandy, who, once wed, is likely to make his wife uu happy as long as she lives. Others "lull in love" with street corn er-watching gentry, or such ilk as hang around church doors, on Sunday "to sec the girls come out." If girls of eighteen had only cxper ience and judgment that generally comes to them by the time thev tire twenty five, these loungers would dis appcivr fawn the faeo of the earth like j frogs wheu the first snow falls. Hut, alas ! they have not, aud consequently the severe and bitter recipe will uovor bo given them as a curative test. Modern demoiselles do not know how to nia'ke such parlor knights "stand.in tho cold" nor how to give thctii "the mitten." And bo thqy many lazy,1 flippattt, good-for-nothing young mou, uTrd eettlo themselves dowu, sooner or Inter, to lives of sorrow, dis'.ppointiuent and ohagrin, insteati of Urging them first +o go to work eaa'ucsb'y and honest ly, aud endeavor to he sober aud in.hu triaus-in icrder to win ihotn. A woman selecting a husband, or bc'n? sought us u wiio, ought to knq.y before sho yields her heart or hand, whether the suitor hns a profession or a trade; whether be is a skillful nrtisun or a thrifty, industrious farmer?up early and late, ublo to do his own work, and uot ashutnod of it either j whether his "hobby" is to complain of " haid times" instead of struggling to brighten them ; whether he knows how to man njre a fortuuo if he has one : whether he works six days in his profession, and on Sunday rests, and goes to church to pn ise God. If they would take the trouble to find out these things, they would never have cause to regret their marriage?they would always love and respect their husbands ; and moreover, never lack a well-provided home. But they don't take wthc trouble ! They go on, as they will probably con tinuc to do while the earth revolves on axis, estimating a young man's worth by the nicety of* the tailor's fit, the length and silkiucss of his moustache, and his ability to talk opera and soft nonsense. One faet, if generally known, is too often forgotten, and that is, that love and confidence are the foundation stones of jcirPcct domestic bliss; that without these all is chaos and doubt and dispair, and happiness is a myth liugeting ouly in the heart's Utopia. There is a trite aphorism about Love flying out at the window when Poverty, comes in at the door. There is no truth in this where the affection existing is genuine; and, indeed, there is never m-ed for more fortune than that which insures comfort. Those persons who marry with m.ider ate means arc generally the ones who tasts the conunthic ether of life. No matter which one brings the "lucre" to the domestic treasuiy, 60 that the hearts are in the right place. And certain it is that, such domestic bliss is founded upon a rock. Happiness is another haute for love ; for where love is there is happiness also ; and with these there is oontcntjncnt too, for true love inspiics forbearance and gentleness ; ami these domestic qualities ever and aLvays flood a liotue with eternal sunshine, bright j and visible and bk-s cd as the smile of ' God ! I A young womin leaving ibn ten Iot arms of the parents who have hitherto j cherish(-.d her and guided her footsteps, j to go to sale and honorable protection in the very bosom of love an I honor, should lay aside, nt once, and forever, the hauteur, and passion, and self c in federation, that often stamps her ehtr acter in girlhood, and over after have the merit of hor .husband in view a'ilh I unalterable revcrenoc aud delight. She should reflect that marriage to a true man has a eucharistic meaning She should remember that marriage imposes upon her hlte sum of obligation to bim. Does be not confer upon her, independence, distinction, and, dearer than all, felicity ? She should eveu moderate her prirnte expenses, and pro portion ber general expenditures, not only to the standard of his fortune, but his wishes. In her sphere of act ion as a wife, there are sacred duties she should never forget. There is a sauoiti ty in the condition of wifuhood ; there is a dignity in character; there is a solemnity in the vows that should? evor be lovingly v6inetnborcd. [Society holds a wife amenable for her example, for the honor and happiness of her husband ; and God holds her atnen able for the rich talents entrusted to her care and improvement, for no wo man can be true to any man while false to herself ! No mat ter what the maze of pleasure may bo, no matter what the <vhirl of passion, no true wife should for a day ho oblivion! to J.h.o fact that there is a record which will sooner or later appenr in terrible evidence against her for hor least omission. If wives, as a class or individually, would study these pre [ oopts, there would be fewer after tragedies because of meeting affinities, getting divorced and remarrying. And yet thero is great, deal of heroism it) this world ! Tljpro are men who go homo to reckless and careless wivc3, aud to ill kept houses, who never utter one word of complaint there, qever one word of reproach, nor yet to tho world ; and there are women who screen the faults of their husbands, even from their own cljijdron, and bear the burdetr of neglect with saint like fortitndo ! They love ou, nuij liopcou, to the end. Who amottg us doubts that when God sets Iiis seal on their foreheads we ahall know what heroism lljqif fnlent, lives contained ? Aga hns much to do with tho loss or Buccess of happiness. I have always contended this point,.. I do qo still. I think a mau ought to bo fully ten years older than his wife. There aro many reasons, in justification of this practice. The most fovciblo ono under consideration is that the sexes in Aracr ica do not bear their t-ges equally. Say a man of twenty-three years marries a lady of the same age. When he is forty-livo ho is in the prime of life j when she is for'y five she is general ly faded, cross and jealous?especially of the inference that might be deduced from their Btiggcstive respcctiv<fw}ppe:ir anccs. Of course there are l^its to such a rule, aud they should be drawn. For instance, a very old man perhaps had bolter not marry at all ; bntlf he is determined to embitter the live) of his relations, 1 think the most sensible a I ] liaiicn ha could adopt is the vef'i?rablc custom of wedding his house lipjepsr; the only drawback being thai of the association which he enters irib? with the housekeeper's rotations and "onnoj tions, if he bo an "aristocratic '^igeutlo man. But, of all others, the subject of mon o}' is the it'ost difficult lo lay icpVn law upon?as a matrimonial consideration . It may be taken for granted, tl^gh I do not positively assort it, that ;i*rls are not in the least grateful to bo t-l'arrio I without it; lor the very reason.that it is human nature?masculine, as^well as feminine nature?-to believe thrtci we are chosen and accepted for our intrinsic merits. Now, a portionless girl is pretty sure to believe that lver attractions Tn other respects quite account for the oircum stance of a husband not wanting a dewer with her ! Jlut still, te put the argument on a low ground, it ij unquestionably not the best policy to get married sim^-y for a I fortune. The cases where rr6u have I paid off their debts by this process d I not look wnli when closely inv^Hgatad; I for, after (lie debts,are paid oll^^rV'is .still the wife t i iivc with, who will !itv<;r forget the boon the has con furred. A suit ah In woman, with money, has an -additional charm, cap sci illy if she b'dong to a class wh > <lo not regard it as the one aim, object, ?:id result of lit". A -io iimn and a Worthy husband will know how to treat, and will treat a good and worthy wife with lore h i I respect. Her imago is jcuuutc 1 in hi n. i No matter how great a man he may be. no matter how austere and strong minded ho may be, so that he loves her! It is then, when iuspired with divine passiou and diviao tenderness for her, that he feels her influence every day. A power within him, which otherwise might have slumbered unknown or for gotten, is exerted by her loving words ond herwomauly dependence upon him for strength. In the language of Bui wer : "Her image glossed in his soul, lures him on to those inspiring toils by which uiuu mnstcrs men." To the potent influence of either a wife's or a mother's love, how many ol our greatest statesmen and subliiuust heroes attribute their success iu life. it is not woman alone who must have something to love. Man needs the same stimulant to raise him from the state of thraldom in which the cares and nnxi etics of an every day life usually plunge him. What friend can take with him the place of a wTe ? Who can ad minister consolation as she does, so free from i*uspiciou or hope of interested a ess other than that of a holy and ten lor desiro and deep anxiety to make him happy ? Jjct all iuu world forsake and abaudon him, lo! trial* come upon him, let calamities befall him. yet in her pro sence, and crowned 'vith her foud nfibc tioti, a harbinger ol* love aud truth and devotion can always he found. Soa.o woujcu Jb-rget that men have a yearning for disinterested love. Ah ! once convince a man that he is beloved for himself, independent of his wealth, or his station, or any of the advantages of which he may bo possessed?let him see, I say, that ho is beioved for him self, and you can make him your slave for life I Men arc more generous than women ?they arc more susceptible, more cot) fiding, more tcudcr, more faithful, more Bincerc 1 Bless a good W'in, or even a bad oun, with a noble wmipin fop a wife, and you will sec that he is capable of prolonging things that would discourage him had ho not some one to offer him those little ' words of consolation und chcor, that j have lightened tho burden ol many a ! life. "Never mind the oilda a-aintt1 you I I'm here, I bcliove iu you, I love l.youl". mO l I r, - ? ?? ! ?: A man who possesses the affeotion and the respect of his wife, founds his domestic life upon n rock which with stands all storms. And the fault will lie at his own door if he fails to attain eminence and honor. But if a man marries, and, by deed or incompatibility, discovered too late?fails to possess or to retain her love ; if there are no loving eyes to watch for his coming, no loving a tins to encircle Iiis neck, no loving lips to give him greeting when he retires from tlic cares and toils of tho day, let woman rest assured that to that, man ambition aud hope and peace and Con totltuiciit are lost mirages that float above the desert sands o( a barren and sterile life?a life that has no "beyond" brighter than the grave. And uow about a house. In the first place it should not be too Inrjze : a husband should never be able Lido away from the smile or the kiss of his fresh young wife. Nor should it be too elegant for the''wear and tear" of every day life. 1 he morr sunlight the more joy. It should have no darkoeed state chambers?no company ebigauoe. I '?Everything for thee and me" should L.e the happy thought wh.ttjver door opened or closed. There shall by all mo iin be a pet bird, a pet cat and a pet dog about the premises. These attach one to domestic life. There should be flowers, too?all per fumed, such as roses, lilies, violets, mi?uonctte1--. pinks, spice pinks, that ha\c the breath of Eden iu them, aud Iie.lioti >pes. A gn en fig for your exotics; they continually remind one of selfish, heartless women! ''hey should not even be seen about a happy home. ? There should be a swinging window (Jf the home is it* the eiiy.j for my young people are too poor to have a conservatory, where winter and sum nor the breath of the bloss>ius should eonte. The rooms should hi orderly, neat and sweet?with a sort of'dried laven dt*;-.' thymy, country smell ab >ut the n . that would take the man's hr?art in jfnn cv our into fresh green Behls an i broad mcidows, with sky larks and bluo ^skic-" ami brown butterflies aud grnshoppcrs. and breezy red and white ( lover, and humming bees -with the woiueu he love by his side. Intheeconom'c management of abo:n 2 nothing should be left to the servants. A wile's tyuah, a wife's kve, should be seen and felt in everything. Her table should be exquisitely clean, with only a little silver on it. and that pure?inly a little glass, and that cut; and the china should be pure, white and fine, the nap kins and linen snowy, the food delicious ly palatable aud always dclieiwusly ser vcd. A wife's attention to the minor details of her household can readily ef feet all this. Her negligence, bo it ever so slight, is observable. Only the service of capable servants should be accepted. Housekeeping as I I am to day, I had rather be my own domestic than have an untidy or a cire less menial about my promises. Nothing shovld escape a matron's rye, and yot her government should bo un main /> ? \ Jor gtiantff. ,!,? vrloum. Nor should any woman marry until I she 13 capable of govering a household , n href, of making her presence of* love and pystem. and ability felt through a gontlo and irresistible influence. No man will think less of bis wife because she is interested in the aianage mont of homo a flairs. When a man of.senso marries lie wants a wife?not merely the social devotee, the beautiful artist, who plays and sings and dance- and paints and promcna le.s ! lie wants a companion ? one who cm comfort and console him in his gloomy I hours ; one with whom he can counsel; one who bus rensou , Depreciation, reflcc lion, judgment and feeling !

The man docs not live, and never did live, who was able to resist the' loviog, refined aod gentle:n!luoncc of a pure, peaceful, in telligent en 1 affectionate woman. The most beautiful picture, that has ever been made of a true woman was the description that Sir John Mclntosh gave of his own wife. 'She was a wo man who by tender management of my weaknesses gradually corrected the most pernicious of them. TJiough of the I most generous nature, alie taught .me economy by bar love of inc. Duriu^ the most critical period of my life she relieved me of the care3 of my affair, and preserved order in them. She gent ly reclaimed me from dissipation; she propped my weak and irresolute nature; urged m}' indolence to useful and credi table exertions, aud?was perpetually at hand to admouish my heedlojsness and improvidence. To her I ovve whatever I shall be. In her solicitude for ray interest she never for a moment forgot my character. Her feelings were warm und impetous, but she was placable, ten. der and coustaut. Such was she whom 1 lost wlTS*?? kdowlcdge of her worth bad refined my ardeuUiQYO to a Bincare friendship.' Ah ' can nny woman have lived in \ vain whose husband pronouueees such a panegyric over her death ? Let every woiua.ii; every wife , reinem her this gem ! 'The sunlight [that follows a ship wreck is n?-t less beautiful, though it i shines upon the remnants of the broken Imk; what is savud is so much more precious than that which has been lo_-t. i I he domestic circle is too small to allow ui rupture; it is alwaya too precious, to make excusable auy neglect to prevent or to heal distuvdanccs. They are enough to minister by hiuts and reports i to domestic unhappiness; and, unfort u iiately, tho boat under such circumstan ces arc much proue to mistake, and thus misrepresent motives, a?d trifles, with no direct object; are magnified minto mountains of unintentional offense. Let u* guard against it ! Delicate relations arc like the polish ol* c istly cutlery: dampness corrodes, and the rust, though removed, leaves a staiu.' Mrs. GaiiicS its a Lawyer. Belva A Lockwool.s recent appear anccn i the Court of Claims, in this city reminds the New Orleans Picayune of ?hat occurred in the District court of that city nearly thirty yo irs ago. It was on the trial of one of tho first of the many suits of Mrs. Myra Clark (Jaincs. Judgo Buchanan presided, and the case was submitted to a jury. It happened that the lawyers, some of the ablest at the bar, fell into a bitter wrau gle with the Judge, and were bo offen ded at his rulings that they withdrew from the case and the court. Mrs. Uainesand the veteran genera*, her husband, were present in court, The general wore his full uniform; his swoul and rash, in conformity to the | regulations. 1 he lady was there in the meridian of a beauty, grace and vivacity eveu now preserved to so remarkable de grip, after reaching the Scriptuoal linn?, ol human life. Immediately upon tho withdrawal of her lawyers the stately olj horo of Kort Krie, taking his wife by tho hand led her to the bar ami addressed tho judge its follows: ?? 'May it p'oase your houor I waa cdu catcd for the bar, and tho honored rola lives whose naruo I boar, (tho celobratod Chief JjJusticc Edmund l'cndleton of Virginia,) impressed mo, in early youth with the proloundcat revcrcoeo for the civil courts of my couutry.
