Once, when roused by the knel! of depaited virtue, we poured out the heart sickening sense of wrong and injustice done io a beloved friend, in the strong language of rebuke and scorn to those who doomed an angel to a weary pilgrimage on earth. Again we feel impelled to take up the pen to paint this dark crime in its own appropriate hues. It is in vain to assert that innocence is proof against its attacks. As well assert that

Eut woman helpless woman helpless as mf.mcy and more sensitive than manhood leaning with fond tenacity on man for protection and defence shrinking from the near contact of vice, and bound by the conventional forms of society to remain quiescent under as-crtion, too weak to be her own ad

Oli! w oe for such a fate, and scorn and infamy for tiie cold blooded atrocity that dooms her its victim. There is much radically wrong in the edu
cation of woman. Her good and loving heart, that would prompt her only to actsofkindness
and beiiificcnce, is early sophisticated. She is early taught to prefer the rules of art to the dictates ol nature the conventional forms of society to tiie natural promptings of her own pure mind. She feels her weakness and need of protection & she yields too deep a deference to that world's opinion, whom she feels hersi ll unfitted by nature to encounter and strude

rnillE subscriber having obtained the exclusive -li. right for Patents for the above machines for the State of Indiana, and has now one machine that he has obtained from Rhode Island from Green's Factory, and has now on hand castings for a large number more at West iJnion, Fayette county, where the machine can he eeen, and the performance they make. J. D. SCO FIELD. RECOMMEXDATIOXS. Fram the Cultivator. Green's Straw Cutter. This is tho most simple and efficient machine of the kind that has yet been offered to the public. It is made very strong and is not liable to become injured, nor to got out of order. The apparatus consists principally of two cylinders; the upper one is of iron, having the requisite number of knives set in grooves. All that is necessary in operating, is to put in tho straw and turn the crank. After the straw is ouce cu it can be put in again, and cut with increased rapidity tho second time. More than double the quantity can do cut in the same space of t ime by this than by any other machine used in this section of the country. I set a man at the crank, and with the hay close to the machine commenced feeding. With my utmost exertion I could not keep it regularly supplied. In five minutes, we cut eleven buhels, heaping measure, of hay. Had it been fed according to its power of execution, one-fourth more would have been cut. Had I used straw instead of hay the quantity cut in the above time would have been as great, as it is more easy to supply the machine without interruption. It cut com stalks with rapidity, particularly email ones. The box is ruado large, and by putting in a good deal of hay at once, or by having it close to the machine, one person can feed it and turn the crank at the same time. Extract fram the Report of the Committee of the Albany Fair on Farm laplenicnts, &,c. Grekn's Straw Citthb, presented by C. N. 7Jement, was the only implement of the kind exhibited. It is a hand crank power. It is 5 feet long by 3i feet wide. It has 12 knives, 8 iches, on a 4 inch cylinder, and works upon a cylinder or roller of lead will deliver two bushels of cut hamper minute feeds itself and may be managed by a stout boy. Price, highly finished, $30. The committee do not hesitate to recommend this as the most complete and perfect implement of the kind which has come to their notice.
