Women and Marriage. I have speculated a great deal on matrimony. 1 have seen young and beautiful women, the pride of gay circle, mar ried, as the world says, well. Somo have moved in their costly bouses, and their friends have all come and looked at their furniture and their splendid home for happiness, and havo gone away and committed them to their sunny hopes cheerfully and without fear. It is natural to be sanguine for them, aa the young are sometimes carried away with similar feelings. I love to get, unobserved, into corner, and watch the bride in her white attire, and with ber smiling face and her soft eyes meeting me in the prido of life weave a waking dream of future happiness, and persuade myself that it will be true. I thiulc how they will sit upon the luxurious sofa as the twilight falls, and build gay hopes and murmur in low tones the not now forbidden tenderness; and how thrillingly the allowed kiss and the beautiful endearments of wedded life will iuake even their parting joyous; and how gladly they will come back from the crowded and empty mirth of the gay, to each others, tjaiet company. J. picture to myself that young creature, who blushes even now at his hesitating caress, listening eagerly for his footsteps as the light steals on, wiebln;? be would come, and wheu

' I go forward for yeara and see her luxuriant hair put soberly away from ber brow, and her girlish gracca resigned into dignity and loveliness, chastened with the gentle meekness of maternal affection. Her husband looks on with a proud eve. and shows the same fervent love and delicate attentiona which first won her; and her fair children are grown, about them, and they go on in full honor and untroubled ysirt, and are re memtered when they die. aasV N AS BY Mr, Nailv Ehivi a Scr rvptrd iiv a A i'i'jrr rtnon, out ti tut ii inter ho t'l Aitltd (I Hi Auttted ly tht i tntrte JShlcr, Tost Orrta, Confkdrit X Uoada, ) (.ich is iu the Stait uv Kentucky,) v JaouarjlO, 18G7. ) I wos rekcated a week ago to preech a discourse from tho text wich tho noble and high-minded.

And here let me remark, that there alntamore devoted people in Kentucky than them laiuba es compose my Hock.

''Elder," ted he, his voice trembliu at the sacrifice be wux a makin and a tear atcelin down hia check; "Elder, them's the horn; let us to our dootics; 'ligion must take tho front seat uv temp'ral matters," and ighiii ez he cast a pnrtin glnnce at his hand, he strode out rcsolootly to tho sanktooary. I opened by read in the i'ollcrin from Governor liramlette's message: "The tiiggcr is tho inferior uv the whifo he lacka the power to rise. Ontil tho leopard kin change his spot, or tho Ethiopcaiijjii ikiu ajl efforts to repeal or nullify God's laws will te unavnntii." "My brclhcrin tl.cso words i words uv wisdom, and fur em let us be thankful.

With the black skin he wuz given all the other marks uv inferiority, lie wuz cuat with long arms, immense hands, flat nose, and bowed legs, and that thcr might be no mistake iu tho matter he wuz given wool itistead uv hair, halleloogyl "Ah, my brethern, wat a blcssid thing for us is this Ethiopian I Wat a consolation it must bo to yoo all to know that ther is a race below yoo, aud how blcssid the reflcckshun that they can't chango thcr skin, and by that means git above yoo the That's the comfort we draw from sKripiers. n ai a norror u woou uc '!.

Some mornin he'd wake up aud find cm all white persons, wich it wood be unconstoosbnel to wollop.

Aiut they niggers yet, and aint they still the degraded wretches they alluz wuz? I paws for a reply."

Tor several months tho citizens of Boston and of Cnmbiidgo adjoining, lae been agitated with the question as to thd frortely of whipping girls and young tidrcs iti school, A teacher in one of the public schools of Boston was some tiiuo since brought beforo tho courts on the charge of administering a cruel and hu iniliutiog chastisement to a young girl, but he was sustained by the" authorities. A similar case' occurrud at Cambirdgc, the scat of Harvard University, where a young lady sixteen years of age was Beverly flogged. The late election of school commissioners at tho latter pluco turned altogether on this point, and tho aotiwbipping the-girls candidate! Were electted by a very small majority. The discussion of tho question is still kept up in Athens and the surrouuding parts, aud is carried on with ro little warmth, pro and con, lh. Jorrili ymin, of Cambridge, who has been oue ot the most active in denouncing the cuse of girl-whipping in that city, has published a pamphlet setting forth tho moral and physical reasons why corporal punishment should not bo inflicted upon girls. He says: ! "Why should not girls be treated as boys? Because girls are not boys. Every parent having' children of both sexes knows that they have moral characteristics that at onco distinguish them before they arrive at the school age. They aro weaker in body and moro seusitive in fecliug, and are more occupied with the imprcssiou they make upon others long before they kuow its value. That delisate senso of propriety which distinguishes the worum has alicudy the germ in the girl. They seem to know instinctively that tncy can not rely upon physical btrength, aud : as lustiuctivcly cling to others ior support and protection, i he j are gentle, docile, confiding and aEVctioiiatc. They exhibit! these goutlcr qualities at homo aud iu the school iu a thousand ways; they hatcn to meet their teacher as she npnioHcLcs in the morning; they run by her side, they eeue her hand, aud evince their, aflection by kisses upon her cheeks and ro&es upon her desk. The skillful and faithful toucher takes advuutage of these qualities, especially of their docility, and so moulds them that corporal 'punishment is not only unnecessary, but it is cruelty. "Physiologically she is different, and to j this I would moat earnestly beg your attention. Her blood corpuscles aro smaller, her nervous system of a more delicate structure, her braiu ia lighter, and ber muscles smaller; she is made for quickness and vivacity, but not for strength acd endurance.- The same reasons which provent her from sharing tho rougher games and plays of boys, should protect her from suffering tho harsher puuishments of boys. She is more sensitive to internal emotions and external sensations; and I assert with out fear of contradiction, that no pbysi eian can be salely trusted to aavise lor the preservation of health or its rcstora-j
