Frost Work.
>no sought m? this morning
A Ut lblno eyes shining bright,
"He over ber ob eeks the dimples
/Were chasing like beams of light
" ?hi come to myroora, deer mother,
A ourious thing is tuero
A painter has boen at work all night,
In tho cold and chilling air I
"Ho has made a beautiful castle,
' Far up on a mountain higb,
And a forest o? old and stately trees ;
With branches that touch the sky.
"They're all on tho window, mother,
. The strange and beautiful things,
And a thousand sparkling rainbows,
The dear sun over them flings."
I went with the little prattler,
The wonderful work to Bee,
And glorious, in the shining san.
I Was the delicate tracery.
For all night long, the artist
Had patiently wrought away,
And only put by his pencil,
I At the coming of the day.
Softly and stealthily toiling,
By the holy light of tho stars,
And the other light, like a glory,
That streams from the crystal bars.
Ho weut, as he carno, in silence,
But he left his work behind,
Like the fairies, who dropped their favors,
By night, for the good and kind.
How often the silent worker,
In tho busy mart of time,
"Weaves a life of angel beauty,
Then soars to another clime.
And when lip and brow have faded,
Beneath the dnst of death,
Their echoes comes to the living,
And awaken love and faith.
Oh! beautiful frost-work, teach me
Another lesson in life,
The web that is woven by night-time,
At morning, with gems may bo rife.
Tfie Grim Female.
The grim female must be carefully dis?
tinguished from the masculino womau, for
they aro by no means essentially tho same,
though the types may run into each other,
and sometimes do. But the masculino
woman, if not grim, bnt only Amazonian,
has often much that is fine and beautiful in
her, as we see in her great prototype, Pallas
Athene; bot the grim female pur sang is
never noble, never beautiful; and the only
meaning of her existence-the only mission
she seems sent into the world to fulfill-is
that of serving os a warning to the young as
to what to avoid. The grim female is not
necessarily an old maid, os would appear
likely at first sight. We find her of all con?
ditions indifferently-as maid, wife, widow,
as mother and childless alike-and we do
not find that her condition in any way af?
fects her character. If she is born grim,
she remains grim to the end; and neither
marriage nor motherhood modifies her. The
grim female of novelists is generally an old
maid; but a caricature printed in the broad?
est lines and from the outsides of things.
She is emphatically an odd woman ; odd in
her dress, her mode, her state. She wears
a flapping cap, skimpy skirts, and rusty
brown mittens on her bony hands; she has
a passionate aversion to men and matri?
mony;- and she lives queenly behind a bar?
ricaded house door, with a small slavey, or
an elderly female afflicted with deafness, to
do her work and bear the brunt of her
temper. But sho is always odd and un?
fashionable, and unlike everybody else, and
could never be mistaken for au ordinary
woman from the first moment when she ap?
pears on the page to tho last paragraph of
her existence.
One characteristic of the grim fotnalo is
her want of any of the womanly passion for
children. She may have so much maternal
instinct perverted as to bo on friendly terms
with a dog or two, or a oat, or may bo a
cockatoo; but sho has no real affection for
children, no comprehension of child nature,
and the "sublime nonsense of the nursery"
is a thing unknown to her from first to lost.
If she has children of her own, sho treats
them in a hard, wooden way, that has noth?
ing of tho ideal mother about it. Hence
she is one to whom the present generation
is undeniably worse than the post, one who
groans over tho follies and shortcomings of
the times, and who thinks that good con?
duct died out with her own youth, and that
it is not likely, by the look of things, to bo
restored. In fact, youth itself is tho root
and basis of offence; and if sho coerces
children, she tyrannizes over girls and snobs
young men with a qnite impartial hand.
Tho grim female is not necessarily a
strong minded woman, or a learned woman,
like those who wear spectacles, go to scien?
tific meetings, and are great in the classics
and the 'dogies. She may be of tho eman?
cipated class; it all depends ou chance; and
a grim female, when of tho emancipated, is
avery formidable person indeed; but she is
not necessarily ono of those. On tho con?
trary, part of her very grimness comes from
her intense conservatism and uncompromis?
ing conventionality. Nothing is so abhor?
rent to her as innovation or novelty in any
shape. She does not hold with any ono out
of the narrowest groove of respectable be?
liefs, in what direction soever tho diverging
line may go. A Ilomanist or a Baptist, a
Jew or an infidel, it is all ono to her; each
is equally dreadful to her, and eternally
foredoomed.
She is the Orthodox Church, without fal?
lals; as far removed from Ritualism as she
is from ranting, and demanding for herself
that infallibility of judgment and absolute
possession of the truth which sho denies to
the Pope and all his Cardinals. Beware
how you broach new doctrines in her pre?
tence. She has been known before now to
abjure her nearest relatives for no greater
moral lapse than a weak belief in globules;
while for anything Uko graver aberrations
say on tho apo theory, or on tho plurality
cf races, ur on historical religion-?he has
no toleration whatever. If the Smithfield
fires existed at the present day, the grim
female wonld be the first to light the fagota
It is all the same if she belongs to any dis?
senting persuasion; part of her grimaces
coming from her intolerance, and her own
beliefs being simply the spring-board on
which abo stands.
The grim female tries her strength with
all new-comers. She is like one of the
giants or black knights of old romance,
who lived in castles or caves, whence they
pounced like tigers on all passers-by, and
either wrung their necks if they conquered
or retreated; howling, if disco m fit ted. This
is what the grim femalo does in her degree.
She dashes on ali who are presented to her,
and bas a passage of arms us the fi rr... net of
the new drama. If her opponent yield, out
of timidity or good breeding, or perhaps
from not understanding the warlike nature
of the encounter, she puts ber foot on them
forthwith, and ignominiously crushes them;
if they defy her, and give her back blow
for blow, . ten to one she cuts them, and
becomes their enemy forever after. For
she has not breadth enough to be magnani?
mous, and tho ono thing olio never forgives
is successful oppositiou. Very grim is sho
in tho presence of humau weukue.ss, moral
and physical.
A grim femalo has no mercy. Sho may
be just, but if sho is so, it is in a hard, un?
compromising way, that makes her justico
worse than others' partiality. For justico
can bo sad, even if unwavering; and tho
grim female is never sad, howpaiuful soever
the work on hand and tho sentence to be
executed. Neither is she gay; for sho is
not plastic enough to bo cither tho one or
tho other. She is run into an iron mould,
where her natnro is compressed as in a
vice, no bursting of bonds anyhow. What
would becomo of us, if all our women were
liko her?
When we look nt her. wo are inclined to
forgive nil the smallness and silliness which
sometimes vex US in tho ordinury woman,
and to think that there aro worso things
than the love of dress for which wo so often
reproach our wives and daughters; that
flirting-which is reprehensible, no doubt
might bo exchanged for something even
moro reprehensible; and thatvauity of the
giggling, coquettish kind, though to bo
steadily discouraged and sternly reproved,
is not quite tho worst feminine thing ufter
all. Surely not! a grim female, who cannot
flirt nor giggle, nor cry and kiss and make
up when scolded, is far away a worso kind
of thing than a feather-headed little puss
who is always doing wrong by reason of her
foolish brain, but who manages somehow to
pull herself right because of her loving
heart. Weak women, vain women, affected
women, and the wholo class of silly women,
whatever the specialty of silliness exhibited,
aro tiresomo enough, Heaven knows; but
unsatisfactory as they are, they are better
than the grim female-that woman of no
sex, born without softness or sympathy,
and living without pity and without love.

AYEB'S CHERRY PECTORAL.
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs, such as
Coughs, Colds, Whooping Cough, Bron?
chitis. Asthma and Consumption.
PROBABLY never boforoin the whole history of
medicino, has anything won so widely and so
deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long scries of years, and among most
of the races of men, it has risen higher and higher
In their estimation, as it has becomo better known.
Its uniform character and power to cure tho vari?
ous affections ol the lungs and throat, have mado
it known as a reliable protector aguinst thom.
While adapted to milder forms of disease and to
yonng children, it is at tho samo time the most
effectual remedy that can bo given for incipient
consumption, aod the dange rous affections ot tho
throat and lungs. As a provision against sudden
attacks of CROUP, it should be kept on band in
every family; and, indeed, as all are sometimes
subject tv> colds and coughs, all should he provided
with this antidoto for them.
Although settled CONSUMPTION is thought
incurable, still great numbers of cases where tho
disease seemed settled have been completely
cured, and tho patient rostored to sound health hy?
the CHERRY PECTORAL. So completo is its
mastery over tho disorders of tho lungs and
throat, I hat the most obstinate of them yield to it.
When nothing else could roach thom, under tho
CHERRY PECTORAL they subside and disappear.
SING ERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS bud great
protection from it.
ASTHMA is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
BRONCHITIS is generally curatl by taking tho
CHERRY PECTORAL in small and frequent doses.
So generally aro its virtues known that wo need
not publish tho certitlcates of them here, or do
more than assuro tho public that its qualities are
fully maintained.
AYER'S AGUE CURE,
For Fecer omi Ague, Intermittent Fetter, Chill
Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical
or Bilious Fever, ?te, and indeed a'l the affection?
lohlch arise from malarious, marsh, or miasma
tie, poison*.
As its naroo implies, it does Cure, and docs not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis?
muth. Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, it in nowise injures suv pa?
tient. 'Jin- number and importance of its cures in
the ague di tricts, aro litornll/ beyond account,
and we believe without a parallel in tho history of
Ague medicine. Our pride is gratified by thc
acknowledgments we rectivoof the radical cures
effected in obstinat.- cases, and where other reme?
dies had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or
(raveling thiough miasmatic localities,- will be
piotecled bv taking tho AGUE. CURE daily.
For LIVER COMPLAINTS, arising from tor?
pidity of tho Liver, it is an excellent remedy,
Stimulating the Liver into healthy activity.
For Rilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
is an excellent remeky, producing m any truly rc
