THE WIFE'S DUIY TO HER nusBAM). Fie, f c! uuknit that thrcat'ning unkind brow; And dart r.ct scornful glances from those cyc, To wound thy lord, thy kir, thy governor; It blots thy beauty, as frost bites the meads; Confounds thy fame, as whirlwinds shake fair bud And in no jense is meet, or aimiablc. A weman moved, is like a fountain troubled, i r,,i.. ;!t.rminc. t h',r w . hrp ft cf brant v: i And while it is so, none so dry or thirsty Will deign to tip cr drink a drop cf it. Thy husband is thy lord, thy lifc.thy keeper. Thy head, thy sovereign: cr.e that cares for thec,nd for thy maintainar.ee commits his body To painful labor, both by sea and land; To watch the night in storms, the clay ia cold. While thou f.cst warm at home, secure and safe. And craves no ether tribute at thy hands. Hut love, tair looxs anu true obedience; Too little payment for so great a debt. Such duty as the subject owes the piinc.t Even such a woman oweth to her husband: And, when she's f toward, peevish, sullen, scur. And not obedient to his honest will. What is she, but a fool contending rebel. And graceless traitor to her loving lord? 1 am ashm'd that women are so simple Tocffw-r war, where they should kneel for peace; Or seek for rule, supremacy, and sway. When thev arc bound to serve, love fc obey. Why arc cur bodies soft, and week and smooth, Unapt to tcil and trouble inlhcwcrld; Rut that our soft conditions and our hearts. Should well agree with our external pam? Shakspakrk. MARRIAGE. I have often remarked tho eagerness of nil classes cf people to reader hear the nrronnt of marriages. 'So! John has taken to himself a wife,' cries one. 'Iiek-a day,' exclaims an old lady , 'So, Betty has got a husband at last;' anil each is anxious to know all the particulars who married thom who was there hnw the bride was dressed, and so on. On such occasions, I have particularly noticed that the men ecem to sympathize chiefly with the bridegroom from the cause probably that each has Leon, or expects to be, in the same delicate and interesting situation cf the perrons for wlnm their sympathies arc excited. The reasons is not difficult to explain. There is no circumstance in life half so interesting as that of entering into the holy bonds of wedlock. A choice is made "f a companion for life, for good cr evil, for prosperity or adversity, for weal or w o, or, in the good old set terms of the ceremonial, fr belter or for worse.' Then, too, the new clothes, the solemn ceremony, the wedding banquet, and !iair.losi delights appertaining thereto, render this period cf life fir more interesting than anv other. Looking forward, too, through the kaleidoscope of Hope, it preronts to the young imagination an infinite variety cf splendid and teautiful imagery, which h ;t m; like the allusion of the IVrnan Genii in the Fairy Tales. The vor.ng man hopes his turn may come, and d::re nU sketch the picture his fancy dra The tirl, from budding fifteen tl.ro-h birthing twen'y up to ripened woman'uHvl, tie's, as sh-? hears the account k-1 a vveddi'.i J, a so't thrill, vibrating like the trel'e chrd -fa piano, through every nerve of her susceptible frame. Ibn t o -m thiols: quicker, she breathes with a huriied respiration, yet not painfully; no image that she need blush for ever cuts its passing form across her t mc mind, vet she blushes; her eye bn 'V.tcr.s; hor lips assume a deeper stain 1 1 the straw ;errv ; tie langns ami wouoers vhataiUher, for how is she interested ! The eld married people are differently affected, and et they are affected.

Meanwhile the old bachelor nnd old maid forget the chair is not big enough for them. The old codger, whom no one pities, but every one in turn laughs nt as a 'fusty old bachelor, very probat !y recalls to recollection one who, in the days of youth, reciprocated w ith him the tenderest feelings of affection, one who listened to the music of his voice with delight; who watched his coming with anxious ee; whose ready ear distinguished the sound of his footstep from among an hundred ; w ho loved promised w ithered before tho nuptial hour gav e him the right to pillow lu r throbbing head in his bosom, and died.

my easy chair, these thoughts were passing on my mind when I dozed, and dreamed a "feast was getting up, and a large number it was thought, would attend. Hymen entered lighted by his torch ; a crowd pressed to the door, but no one was admitted until some satisfactey rcns)n was assigned how the person came

in Hymen's company. No one will douUt said the minister, 'my right here, for who could have performed the ccrcmonv were I absent!' and seated himself in a large easy chair. My worship,' said a justice of the peace, 'could tie the knot as tight as your rcvence.' A merchant followed, with , bills of rich silks and every rarity of ele gant patterns for wedding dresses tlie mantua maker and tailor close upon his heels. 'They must certainly have bureaus, and probably a cradle,' said a cabinet maker, as he passed along. 'And chairs, and settee, said the chair maker. At that inst a nt a doctor appeared. Hymen dceland he could not conceive how a disciple of the csculapius coyld belong to his train. It is a source of yiy most profitableemployment,' gravely answered the doctor. 'Then I have a right too, exclaimed a nurse rushing forward, her left arm bearing a piece of diaper. A shout was now raised by the shoemaker, the poulterer, the victualler, the schoolmaster, and the Lord knows who; among the rest, a printer popped his nose in at the door allured by the savory smell of the terrapin and oystcr-soup 'it is part of my business to publish the marriages,' said he. 'Let them in let them in,' said Hymen, 'for it is impossible to tell who is not interested, directly or indirectly. Bid them all welcome to the feast;' and I awoke. On full consideration,! see that there is abundant reason for the interest every body takes in a wedding, and I hear il whispered by those who understand the signs of the times, there will be more weddings tho present year and the year to come, than there were for many years past. "IT WILL BITE.M Ttidirtor rmf I li r rvt Ii m day, I stopped a moment at the tavern on the hill kept by Mrs. Bucket and while smoking my pipe with an old friend who had been hunting fr an office this month past and come home disappointed, a lililc boy brought in a soring trap readv set for a mouse: the landlady saw him, and patting him on the head cautioned him don't put your finger in Bob, it will bite. Tho little fellow threw it down in an instant. Look there, said my friend, how few are as wise as that little fellow he wont put his fingers into the trap when it would be the easiest thing in the world to do it; and vet thou sands hunt up the trap with infinite labor and pains and then stick a whole hand in it. He had scarcely spoken, before in came Tom Worthless, with his clothes as ragged as a beggar, and threw down a shilling for a gill; I told him the story, and Tom, said I,you are putting your fingers in the trap nicely take care it will bite. He swallowed the liquor and allowed the ad vice was good, but the whiskey better. However, a man who misses the nail many a lime may hit it on the head at last and I wish my neighbors, the printers, if they sec a man m lorn'; case to tell him the story. Tell him he is meddling w ith a trap, and it will l ite it will bite. If thev see an idle lellow running to the stores for credit, to tell him he is seting the trap for himself, and putting his fingers in it too, and that it will bite one of these davs most surelv. If thev see an obstinate churl running needlessly into the law, and ex; tiding dollar after dollar, to cheat a neighbor, in stead of settting the matter peaceably at hnne; tell bim he too i" preparing a trap for himself ihat will l ito befote ho thi.iks. of it. If they sec poor souls idling awny.their time in hopes of getting an cilice, cr of draw ing a prize ina lottery, cr vf making mony by speculation, or of times grooving better, or in hope of any such tilings, do tell them it is all nonsense, and that thev M find themselves caught in a trap ere they expect it. If they he?r a man talk of gning to the new countries, who is tolerably well fixed here, tell him to keep his fingers out of such a trap For, there are a hunjlred i , , of traps that w ill bile besides mouse traps. I have seen a great many people slaking their fingers in late times, and dancing round a sorry key, who had ben caught in traps of one kind or another and 1 just scratch off these hints for the benefit of those w ho most need them. Trcn ton K:np oriu .vi . Old Billy, thinks there are mere men practising physic than ever studies it well, and if two thirds had to quit it; there would be enough left o answer any purpose. did Billy thinks that if this countrv could exchange lazv drinking xounj men to the amount of one hundred industrious young farmers, it would be better for the girls. Old Billy thinks that if the girls of IS wait for all their seniors to marry before them, they will not be all married in twenty vcars. Old Billy thinks if men would drink less whiskey, their families could afford to drink more coffee. Old Billy thinks people lay heav ier taxes on themselves than them laid by the Government. Old Billy thinks When he sees a justice of the peace stagger about drunk and swearing oaths that mijrht choak an Algerinc pirate, that he does not well fit the place. A Simp. Mr. Saooks was asked, the other day how ho could account for lure's forming him so ugly.

In a late n - .bcr of the Farmer, I re commended the cultivation of the locust, believing it to be the most valuable timber for fence posts. Since I penned that article, I have reflected much on the subject and have been led to the conclusion, that bv lho use of strong alkalies. several kind of timber abounding in our country may' be render durable in the ground. An intelligent Farmer of Cayuga county informed mc, that w hen he entered on his farm, about thirty years ago, there stood on it a building which had teen used as a potashery, and against which lay a lare quanity of leached ashes, was of bssswood, and to use his own expression os sound as when put in. Iu building out fine packet ships, the spaces between the limber and ceiling and outer planks, are filled with salt, it bavin - being ascertained to render the wood inpcrishable. In article, page 01, bf 1st vol. of the Farmer, it is staled that "the Shakers at Union village have been in the habit of making oak posts as durable as locusts, L-y a very simple end easy process. This is merely to bore a hole in that part of the post, "which w ill be just at the surface of the earth, with such a slope as will carry it just below the surtace, and fill i with salt. With the exception of the red cedar, which is found on the islands and shores of our lakes, we have no timber that will remain sound in the ground many years unless measures are taken to neutralize the acid contained in the wood, in the part hurried in the earth. It appears, by the above statements, that the ley ol wood ashes, and salt, have that effect; and wc have reason to believe that the lime would answer the same purpose. But which w ill answer best can only be obtained by experiment. Query Docs not the ley, salt, and lime, drive cut and occupy the place ol the natural? I believe it to be a fact well established, that seasoned posts are more durable than green ones, and conclude the reason is, mat mere is much less of the acid remaining. I will now propose to the readers of the farmer, that those of us who Ilivc leisure and opportunity, should make the following experiment: Procure soun oak, chestnut, or white cedar posts, an i when they arc well seasoned, divide them into three parts. Of that part to be put) in the ground let one third be in strong lev 1 3 in strong brine, and 1 3 in lime water, a suffucicnt length of time to neutralize the acid Or, if this be attended with too much trouble, set one-third with leached ashes let one-third have salt applied, as done by the Shakers, and the other third to be set w ith Ihr.c from th ?uiiai.v; ni'j vivj'iii ji si. lining, kji it is at the surface of the ground that posts decay. By such an experiment, in addition to t'.ic benefit to ourselves, we should have the pleasing reflection that vi have rendered one to the country at large. I should DC sorry it the above suggestion should divert the attention of any of the farmers from the cultivation of tho locust, my only oljoct in penning this being to inform them how- to supply themselves with durable posts until their locusts shall have obtained their proper size. Several writers for the Farmer have as sorted that posts last m h longer if the end which was upwards when jrrowinu be put in the ground. 1 consider this worthy of further experiment. ONTARIO. Maxims a xi) Anvien Trittv. of Solomon lth-chood goes vpon o:ic leg Tmth vpon tiro. Thrifty who has travelled much and is something of physiognomist, thinks he can discover a palpable di'dorenc.o between the countenance of a man of truth and a liar. The man of truth, says he, holds his head erect. IIo has an open frank and hones-t countenance. Ho apeaks fearlessly, and directly to the purpose, without hesitation, and .viihout cunning or evasion. Under every circumstance in life, he adheres to his integrity. He never stopsto enquire what the consequences will be. ncr whether he will gain or lose by it. There is something so base and contemptible so mean and ignoble in falsehood, that he cannot stoDp to it. Ho is determined to "stand upon two legs,'' and to rise or fall by the truth. The liar, on the contrary, says he, cannot look ou in the face. He hangs down his head, and has a mean and suspicious louk. His conversation is a tissue of fear, evasion and duplicity. Hiving told one lie, he is furccd to tell twenty more to support that one. He is always attempting to impose upon his friends and neighbors by mirepresentation and falsehood'. If he wants to obtain any object, or to gain an advantage, he stops at no falsehood to etXect his purpose. If he gets into difficulty he tries to betray himself sooner or latter, and be dispised by every body. He "goes upon one leg1' and is liable every moment to fill. The man of truth generally keeps all his promises. He is w hat is called "a man of his word and all who know him ifv the fullest confidence in w hat he promises or says; while the liar is neither trusd nor believed by any body. Laying aside therefore, the wickedness, base ness, and moral deformity of falsehood, Thrif y would a J vise every one,for the sake of good policy; for the sake of self-respect, and the respect of the community in which he lives, to speak the truth, to support a character for the strictest integrity to keep all his promises, and to "go upon tiro legs.
