LADII*’ DIFARTMENT* A Good Housewife. What constitute* the qualifications of a good wife 1 This is a sharp question—but it may be answered, nevertheless. A modern writer, who is evidently acquainted with such an one, asserts that the power of a wife for good or evil is irresistible. Home must be the seat of happiness, or it must be for ever unknown. A good wife is to a man wisdom and courage, and strength and endurance. A bad one is confusion, Weakness, discomfiture, and despair. — No condition is hopeless, when the wile possesses firmness, decision and economy. There is no outward prosperity which can counteract Indolence, extravagance, and folly at No spirit can long endure bad domestic influence.

A pretty young girl was once presented to t. The enntleman who introduced the ancient languages. "lean assure yuui Majesty,” said he, "that she can both speak and write Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. ” "These are rare attainments for a damsel, ” said James, "but tell me, can she spin t ” Now, very many of the young ladles of the present day can boast of their skill in the fine arts and polite accomplishments, in music, painting and dancing, but can they spin T or what is perhaps more appropriate to the times and the modern improvements in labor saving machinery, it may be asked, can they perform the domestic duties of a wife t Ho they understand the management of household affairs 1 Are they capable of superintending, in a judicious manner, the concerns of a family t To all young ladies—we now speak of real ladies—a knowledge of domestic duties is beyond all price to a woman. Every one of the gentler sex ought to know how to sew, and knit, and mend, and cook, and superintend a household. In every situation of life, high or low, this sort of knowledge is of great advantage. There is no necessity that the gaining of such information should interfere with intellectual acquirements, or even elegant accomplishments. A well regulated mind can find time to attend to all.

The butterflies of fashion, and the " bright stars" of the drawing-room, may turn up their pretty noses, and pout at this assertion; but we are speaking to sensible minds, and our remarks are addressed to those who can appreciate them, and think for themselves. Many a husband has been ruined for want of the true domestic qualities in a wife—and many a husband has been saved from ruin by his wife's ability to manage well the household concerns. A truer sentence was never uttered, than that " the poorest of all family goods, are indolent females." If a wife knows nothing of domestic duties beyond the parlor or the boudoir, she is a dangerous partner, indeed, in these times of pecuniary uncertainty t Speaking of the wives of mechanics, we are told by a late writer, who has noted down his experience in the middle ranks of life, that there we may behold woman in all her glory; not a doll to carry silks and jewels, nor a puppet to be flattered by profane adulteration, reverenced to-day, discarded to-morrow, always jostled out of the place which nature and society would assign her, by sensuality or by contempt; admired, but not respected; desired, but not esteemed; ruling by passion, not affbetion t imparting her weekneee, not her constancy, to the sex she would exalt; the source

of misery and vanity. We see her as a wife, partaking the cares end cheering the anxiety of a husband; dividing his toil by her domestic intelligence; Bpreading cheerfulness around for hia sake; sharing the decent refinements of the world without being vain of them, and placing all her joys and her happiness in the man she loves. Asa mother, we and her the affectionate, the ardent instructress of the children whom she has tended from their infancy; training them up to thought end virtue, to piety and benevolence; addressing them aa rational beings, and preparing them to become men and women in their turn. Mechanics’ daughters make the best wives in the world.—[New England Cultivator. Aristocracy.

The follouing “off hand blow” at aristocracy, is from the pen of the noble and gifted Rogers. He is dead, but his spirit iiveth in the following: “ Let me give an off hand blow here to hateful, heartless aristocracy. I detest it above all things. I was subjected to its bloated frown, when I was a boy, and I have a very early, if not a native, inborn abhorrence of it. It has no idea that you have any rights or any feelings. You do not belong to the same race with your paltry, uppish aristocrat. He docs not associate with you when you are with him.— He makes use of you. He does not recognize you as a party in interest of what iagoing on. Yw me nv uiuie a companion to him than his borse or hie dog—end you are no more than a horse or a dog, if you condescend to be of his association. He belongs to the first families. But first here, is meant last and least to everything honorable to humanity. Aristocracy has hone of the lion in it—but it feels bigger than a den of lions. You must beware of it. It regards everything allowed to you, as an allowance—a favor. You have no rights. If you do receive anything, you must do homage for it.

It comes by birth. It comes by money. It comes by idleness, even if it is engendered by trade end by office. Old wealth, however, breeds it the most offensively—a generation or two of the hotnaze paid by poverty to bloated opulence, will breed it—the worst kind. It will turn up the nose of the third or fourth generation along—so that it can hardly sinctl common folks as they go on their grounds. You can tell its nose and upper lip, as far as you can see them. And there is a dreadful dump-ay-daisy look about the eyes and eyebrows.— As much as to say, ” I care considerably less than nothing about nek. " And the voice too—it is amazingly peeulian t V— ——w — r=uny ot sense—but — too much to be an aristocrat. Finally, it doesn’t take much to be an aristocrat. 1 guess aristae - racy is) lack of sense, as much as any thing.— Sense of a certain sort, may accompany it, or be in the same creature. Rut it is a senseless concern, and moreover superlatively hateful.” —(New England Cultivator.

Lowcrvitv. —The Maine Fanner publishes a list of 81 persons, residing in the towns of Bloomfield and Fairfield, mostly on the same mad, Urn youngest of whom is 7S years of age —l# are 80 and upwards—and their joint ages amount to 1727.

Foots about Milk. Cream cannot rise through a great depth of milk. If, therefore, milk is desired to retain its cream for a time, it should be pnt into a deep, narrow dish; and if it be desired to free it most completely of cream, it should be poured into a broad, flat dish, not much exceeding one inch in depth. The evolution of cream is facilitated by a rise, and retarded by a depression of temperature. At the usual teiupcrMvro f the dairy, 80 ° Fahrenheit, all the cream will probably rise in 88 hours; but at 70 ° it will perhaps all rise in half that time j and when the milk is kept near the freezing point, the cream will rise very slowly, because it becomes solidified. In wet and cold weather, the milk is less

rich than in dry and warm ; and on this account more cheese is obtained in cold than in warm, though not thundery weather, The season has its effects. The milk, in spring, is supposed to be the best for drinking, and hence It would be best for calves ', in summer, it is best suited for cheese) and in autumn—the butter keeping better than that of the summer—cows less frequently milked than others give richer milk, and consequently more butter. The morning’s milk is richer than the evening’s. The last drawn milk of each milking, at all times and seasons, is richer than the first drawn, which is the poorest.—[Maine Farmer.

Deep Plowiso. —" How does deep plowing improve the soil f" asks an inquiring farmer. The simple answer is, by increasing its depth. "But,” says the inquirer, "if 1 plow deep 1 un r ; nv j ner t earth that conand inert earth, containing no nourishmenHor plants, lie so near the surface as to be within reach of your deepest working plow, they ought to be turned up und exposed to the influonce of sun, air, frost, rain, snow, and manure and cultivation, that they may become rich. " But, ” says inquirer, (it is strange how many " buts ” such people can find for Use on such occasions,) “it would require too much hard work and too iong a time to do this, would it not 1 ” That depends upon whether you would prefer five dollars profit per acre now, and forever hereafter, to two or three dollars now, this year and next, and ten or twenty dollars per acre hereafter. Verb. Sap. —[Alb. Cult. How so make nice Candles. —Candlewick, if steeped in lime and saltpetre, and dried in the sun, will give a clearer light, and be less apt to run. Good candles may be'made thus : Melt together ten ounces of mutton tallow, a quarter of an ounce of camphor, four ounces of beeswax, and two ounces of alum ; then run it into moulds, or dip the candles. These candles furnish a beautiful light.

For tour Cattle ahd Horses. —Mix occasionally one part-of salt with four parts of wood ashes, and give the mixture to different kinds of stock, summer and winter. It promotes their appetites and tends to keep them in a healthy condition. It is said to be good against bots in horses, murrain in cattle, and rot in sheep. Self-made Men. —Columbus was a weaver. Franklin a journeyman printer. Sextus V. was employed in herding swine. Furgnson and Burns were plowmen. Assop was a slave. Hogarth an ongraver on pewter pots. Ben Johnson was a bricklayer. Person was the son of a butcher—so was Woolsey. Cervantes was was a common soldier. Halley was the son of a soap boiler. Arkwright was a barber. Belzani the son of a barber. Crabbe a fisherman’s son.

Worms. —Two drachms of common salt, and two scruples of cochineal, constitute an enemy to worms. The dose is half a drachm every morning. For adults, one or two doses of oil of turpentine is considered a specific in these distressing cases. (t@“ It is easier to nilno— -* w wrttffnem., tJ> to eetfsfy all that follow it. OiRTMEirr roa Chaps.—Simmer ox-marrOw over the fire, and afterwards strain it through a piece of muslin into gallipots. When cold, rub the part affected. JJ@“ Wood ashes and common salt, wet with water, will stop the cracks of a stove, and prevent the smoke from penetrating. VSF An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening.

The Western Farmers’ Mutual insurance Company | New Lisbon, Ohio. Directors. —Nosh Fredericks, Edward Powers, Jas. Burbick, Alexander Patterson, Joseph Ors. Oeeicbrs: —Noah Fredericks, President; John M. Gilman, Vice President; John McCleymonds, Treasurer; Levi Martin, Secretary. Thia Company divldea Its buslneaa into two departments, Farmers' and Merchants’ departments. The two departments are entirely separate and distinct. By the charter and By-laws, the funds of one department cannot be used to pay losses or expenses of the other. By this happy arrangement, the two departments establish two distinct Insurance Offices in one, thus saving the expense of two separate establishments. In the Fanners’ department we insure no property except farm sad disconnected dwellings. Our rates on that particular class of property ia shout one-fourth the rates charged by town and city Companies in the Merchants’ department. Wo Insure othor safe kinds of property, small amounts in places. Not more tnsn two thousand dollars con be taken that would be destroyed by one fire. Hence we are enabled to do business st as low rate per cent, as spy responsible Company. The insured get a rate of insurance according to the actual amount of losses that are sustained. Upon the safest class of property the Company dff business upon the stock and mutual plan. The applicant may pay a cash premium in full, or a leas amount or cash and * premium note, ss he chooses. Each member of the Company Is entitled to participate in the profits of the Company. The Company have established a general Agency Office at Indianapolis. All losses will be settled and paid In the county where the loss occurs. G. W. PAYNE, Gen. Agent for Ind. and Illinois. W. T. DENNIS, Agent, Richmond, Indians. March 10.1859. [nol9]
