HUSBANDS VS. WIVES: Or, the Great Principle. One of my peculiarities is a strong tendency to differ in opinion from other people upon almost every possible subject. 1 never mouth the matter?I come out roundly. I Lave no doubl the reader is fond of roast beef and plum-pudding. Now, I detest tbem. Nothing could bo moro gross, earthly, stultifying. Besides, uo man fond of such stuff, does, ever did, or ever can, sit down to a meal without running into excesa. Then comes cuslard, ice creaiu, fruit, almonds, raisins, wine. You rise with a distended stomach, and heavy head, and stagger away with brutish apathy. I am lor 1,'rrlw #!;?? r?-' vi.vi,?mi ia, i icu, irun?sweet, Harmless things of nature. No lamb bleeds for rac. No stately ox is slain that I may feast. Old mother earth supplies my slender appetites. The deep, deep spring, clear as crystal?the innocent vegetable?ethereal food. Thus I am light as air. I am keenly susceptible to every moral and natural beauty, which few enthusiastic beef eaters are. I differ from every body in another thing. I believe in love at first sight. We ought to be able to tell in a week whether a woman would do for a wife. The judgment of true lovo is intuitive; a glance and it is done. A man of genius has own imagination a standard of the object of his love? an unexplainable model?the prototype to which exists somewhere in reality, although he may have nerer seen or heard of her. This is wonderful, but it is true. He wanders about the world, impervious to all the delicious, thrilling, and soul melting beams nf Knontw -"-"*1 11 - ' 1 ' ...uovj, tm no icuchcs ma ngni one. There are blue eyes ?they are tender, but they touch not him. There are black? they are piercing, but his heart remains whole. At length, accident flings him into contact with a creature?he hears the tones of her voice?be feels the. warm streams of soul . shining from countenance. Gaze meets gaze, and thought sparkles into thought, iill the mngic blaze is kindled, and ?-lliey- fall iri love. It sometimes happens, that for one model is the imagination of this man of genius there are accidentally two or three prototypes in real lift; or rather, he has two or tlftee different models. It i$ a great misfortune for a man to have mora models than one. They lead him astray.. They involve Itfm jjj difficulties. They^play the very devil with him.- "*' And yet metaphysicians and phrenolo?:?il i- ib -? ? ^91P VUgllb iu kuuw, iuai 11 is no attair of I lift.

It did look pretty. But?"IIjis Caroline much light hair ?" asked I. '"I never knew?I always thought?I was observing only yesteirday that?surely, surely you have made some mistake?see, what is that written in the paper? 'Julia!" 'Fred hastily looked again the little pigeon hole, and drow forth another roso colored envelope?another and another. I smiled?so did he. ' What a vile, narrow prejudice it is," said Fred. "What!" "That a man loves only once. I have twenty?fifty?nay, ? hundred . times. I alwnvs InrA Rnmo nn? ? ' ^vuv. ^viuvtiiiiM b>vu at a time?sometimes twenty." 1 "Heartless!" exclaimed I. "This is not love! Lovo is solo, absorbing, pure, constant immutable." "Hark ye," said tred. "I seldom ceaso to lovq. Adding another angel to the list does not infor the striking out any of the others. There is no limit. A mail of 60ul loves just as he happens to be placed in relation to woiueu. I atn warmed by them, as I am when I stand in tho sunshine. Hecause I have a garden here, when the beams of the god of day fall on my shoulders with a pleasing ardor?must I not feel the warmth when I siand in your garden yonder? It is a groat priuoiple?should the object of my early love die, must I be ever thereafter dead to the most exquisite of human passions? Death is only absence. I know twelve pretty women. Tliey are better than men. Nature mado them ao. They nro all different?all excellent?all ! divino. Can 1 be blind ? Can I be deaf? Shall I deny that their voices arc sweet? their hearts tonder?their ininds clear and intelligent? No. I love them all?Julia, j Mary, Fanny, Helen, Henrietta, Eliza. T ! never think of them without sensations of : delight." Frederick felt a hand upon his shoulder. He looked up. It was Mrs. B., his wife. "The d?1!" 6aid he. I had withdrawn, of course. I am a bachclor mysulf. Curtain lcctures are not in my way. Mr. B. did not come down to dinner. Mr. B. did not come home to tea. I did not get up next morning to breakfast. So I could not kuow what was the result. Mrs. B. is one of the very loveliest women I ever met with. I believe I have met two or three! It is pleasant enough, but then ?eyery rose has it3 thorns. "Only think!" said she to me. her eves ' " 1 moistened with tears, her cheek crimsoned with shame, her bosom palpitating with distress, "twelve! he loves twolvo, he says " "A whole jury," said I. "It is monstrous," said she. "Monstrous indeed," echoed I, "What if I should love twelve officers 1" said she. "Tit for tat," said I. "Or six," said she. "Too good for him," said I, taking her hand. "Or three," said she. "Or one," said I, drawing her towards me, and kissing her 6oft lips. She was my only sister, and I always loved her. The plot was arranged. Frederick bad meditated a journey of two days, but was called back by an anonymus note, at nine the same evening. Tall women are scarce. We hired the uniforms at the tailors1. IlT .. * " TTT . . . _ . i "i nin uiunaerstruck I" exclaimed Fred i to me. "The world is at an end. The sun I is out. What! Ilate?my dear Kate!" I X Tears gushed from his eyes. "I saw it myself," eaid the servant. "Kiss her!" ' Six times," said John. Frederick caught the pistol, and pointed it at his head. I wrenched it from his grasp. "Come with me," I said. "Perhaps it njay be a mistake." Wo opened the door softly. In the next room sat Mrs. 13.; at her feet a richly dressed young soldior, who kissed her hano, received from her a lock of hair, swore he loved her, and left her with an ardent embrace. "I am suffocating," said Fred. "Hush !" I exclaimed, "See there is another. How familiar he seals himself by her aide?takes her hand"? "I shall strangle to death." "Patienc61" "Dearest Colonel!" exclaimed Julia. "The other was only the Lieutenant," whispered John. "I am blessed with too few 6ucb faithful friends." I held Fted still with the grasp of a giant. "That I love you I cannot d?ny. A woman of soul fovea just as the happens to be placed in relation to men. She i$ inarmed by. their noble character a, aa she ia when ahe stands in fa sunshine. It is the great pt^tiple^. "Loveliest of thy sex," safd her companion. Fred burst forth, levelling both pistols at tho Colonel. He potted tHe ?, ^vu. fiiHWH iosqw mw sawdpft 3jj|. The Colonel uttered a scream, and fled. ?WU??P'mtart^^nntenai'''t* i i infill n iniHifhttfn-t~te hum, i my life, my nclions, my heart to you. From you I expected the same. I can see no distinction in our relative duties toward each other. Love must exist on both sides?or on neither. Whatever may be the opinion of a heartless world, a ' man of soul" and of virtues makes his wife"? "I am not to be preached to, traitress," said Fred. "I leave you now, forever ; but not till I take vengeance on my now military acquaintances. Where are thev ?" ------- J "They aio here," 6ho answered. The door was thrown open, nnd (ho two officers, with their chapeaux off, were hoard g'gg'""g at|d laughing in a moat unmilitary manner. Fred soon discovored tlio truth, and I read to him his moral. Husband?, all, remember that wives have equal anguish and shame with yourselves, in receiving a share of affection, though they do not possess your despotic power in extorting it. Tho slightest dereliction, even though only the carelessness of a moment, on tho part of a wife, stamps her for over with ignominy and pain ; while the absurd customs of society allow to a man a greater latitude, in slighting, neglecting, and deceiving her whoso happinss is in his keeping. Of these customs "the man of soul" will never take advantage. ^ m m Ijamartino on the Religion of Revolution* ary Mod. I know?I sigh when I think of it?that hitherto the French neonle have l?ppn tl?a ? 1 "" least religious of all tbo nations of Europe It is because the idea of God?wliicli arises from all the evidences of nature, and from the depth of reflection?being the profoundest and weightiest idea of which human iutelligenco is capable, and the French mind being the most rapid, but the most superficial, lightest, the most nniefiective of all European races, this mind has not the force and severity necessary to carry far and long the greatest conception of the human understanding ? Is it because our governments have always taken upon themselves to think for us, to believe for us, and pray for us ? Is it because wo are and have been a military people, a soldier nation, led by kings, heroes, ?ind ambitious men, from ba'.tlo field to battle field, making conquests and never keeping them, ravaging, dazzling, charming and corrupting Europe ; and bringing home the manners, vices, bravery, lightness and impiety of the camp to the fireside of the people ? I know not, but certain it is that the na lion has an immense progress to make in serious thought if she wishes to be freo. If j we look at the characters, compared as regards religious sentiments, of tho great nations of Europe, America, and even Asia, the advantage is not for us. The groat inen of our country live and die, forgotten com* pletely tho only idea for which it is worth living and dying ; they live and die looking at the spectator, or at most at postcrity. Open the history of America, the history of England, and the history of France ; read the great lives, the great deaths, the great; martyrdoms, the groat words at the hour when the ruling thought of life reveals it-' self in the last words of dying?and com- j pare. J Washington and Franklin fought, spoke, j suffered, always in the name of God, for whom they acted ; and the Liberator of America died confiding to God the liberty of the people and his own soul. Sydney,the young martyr of patriotism, guilty of nothing but impatience, and who died to expiate his country's dream of liberty , 6aid to his jailor: "I rejoice that I die innocent towards the king, but a victim resigned to the King or. high, to whom all life is due." The republicans of Cromwell only sought the way of God even in the field of bAttle. Their politics were their faith, their reign ft prayer, their death a psalm. One hears, sees, feels that God was in all the movements of these great people. Mill cross the sen. traveise La Manchn, come to our times, open our annals, and listen to the last words of the great political actors of the drama of our liberty. One WOtllll fViinlr ihot fl/?l i?"= ? ? ...HV TV (IJ vwiipocu IIULII the soul, that bis name was unknown in tbe language. Ui&tory will have the air of an Atheist when she recouuts to posterity these annihilations, rather than death, of' celebrated men in the greatest year of Franee ! The victims only have a God ; the tribunes and lictors have none. Look at Mirabeau on tbe bed of death. "Crown me' with flowers," said he, "iitfoxicato me with perfumes,-let rac die to the sounds of delicious music !" Not a word of God or of his soul. Sensual philosopher! lie desired only supremo sensualism, a }^st voluptuousness in his agony. , Contemplate Ma'dam Coland,tbe stronghearted woman of the Revolution, on '.the carl that conveyed her to death.

Behold the Frenchman of this latter age ! What must one think of the religious sentiments of a free people whoso great figures seem thus to march in procession to annihiliatinn, and to whom that terrible minister, death itself, recalls neither the threatening^ nor promises of God ! The republic of these men without a God I has quickly been stranded. The liberty won by so much heroism and so uch genius, has not found in France a conscience to shelter it, a God to avenge it, n people to defend it against the atheism which lias been called glory. All ended in a soldier and some apostato republicans travestied into courtiers. An atheistic republicanism cannot bo heroic. When you terrify it, it bends ; when you would buy it, it soils itself. Who would take any heed ? This people ungrateful, and God nou-existent ? So finish atheistic revolutions. Shun Affectation.?There is nothing more beautiful in the young than simplicity of character. It is honest, frank, and attractive. How different is affectation ! Tho simple-minded are always natural. They are, at the same time original. The affected are never natural. And as for originality, if they ever had it, they have crushed it out, and buried it from sight, utterly. 13e yourself, then, young friend ! To attempt to be anybody else is worse than folly. It i* an impossibility to attain it. It is contemptible to try ! But suppose you could succeed in imitating the greatest man that ever figured in history, would that make you auy tho greater ? liy no means. You would always suffer in comparison with the imitated one, and be thought of only as the shadow of a substance?the echo of a real sound?the counterfeit of a pure coin ! Dr. I Johnston aptly compared the heartless imitator?for such is he who affects tho character of another?to the Empress of Russia, when she did tho frealcish thinor of erecting n i a palace of ire. It was splendid and con| spit-units while it lasted. Hut 1 lie sun soon I melted it, and caused its attractions to dis! solve into common water, while the hum| blest stone cottages of her subjects stood j fiim and unmarried! Let tho fabric of I your character, though ^ver so humble, be at least real. Avoid affecting the characI of another, however great. Build up your i own. lie what God intended you to bo? j yourself, and not somebody else. Shun ' affectation. "Bridget," said a lady to her servant. Bridget Conley, "who was that man you were talking with so long at tho gate last I night?" "Sure no one but me eldest broth: er, ma'am," replied Bridget with a flushed cheek : "Your brother ! I didn't know you had a brother. What is his name ?" "Barney Oo'.oolan, ina'am." "Indeed ! how | comes it that his name is not tho same j as yours ?" Troth, ma'am," replied Bridget | "lie lias been married once." A young lady pulling on her veil to go on), rmarkeJ ? ' I must veil my beauty." To which the waggish Frank jocosely replied? j '"You had better, or you may be taken ' up for manslaughter." Remarkable Longevity.?TIio longevity of the signers of the Declaration of Independence is remarkable. Out of the | whole fifty-six, four lived beyond the age of | 90; ten exceeded the age of 80; ten lived beyond "70; fifteen exceeded 00; ten passed their 50th year ; six passed 40 ; and one is supposed to have perished at sea, aged 80> I . - - - The Paris Patrie admits thnt the population of France is decreasing, while the physical powers of the inhabitants also decline; | it attributes the misfortune to the insuffiI cient food of the working classes, and the want of gymnastic exercises. Books.?Without books God is silent, justice dormant, natural science at a stand, j philosophy lame, letters dumb, and all things involved in Cimmerian darkness. Bartholin. ! Love and Friendship.?Love is the I shadow of the morning, which decreases as I the day advances. Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which strengthens with the setting sun life. I ^ t ? The Other Side.?A. writer has compared friendship lo our shadows, nod a better comparison was never made; for while we walk in the sunshine it sticha to us, bat the moment *ye enter the shade it deserts us. A mason speaking of the difficulties of making a cc-Iiar rather deeper'than it was usual to make them, was answered by the owner of the property, that be could bave it as deep as he pleased, for he owned all the Way through.
