Ni'a uie teIiuereSt ASSOCIATIONS or our DoS- omss Il Is synonymous with love, with purity, with truth, with holiness It belongs to all the periods of happiness through which we pass while on earth, In the nor hing of life, when the affections are strong est and most sincere, we exclaim with all he buoyaney of nature: Mother Sister. and woman bends over Us with smiles of aflec- lion, or embraces us with transports of sym pathy and delight. In tho happy moments of youth, we listen to her voice of love and pour out our soul beside her, as she plucks the flowers which bloom upon the hearth or rambles along the banks of the murmuring rlvulet In maturer years, we stand at her side before the holy alter, and she calls us: Husband! and we look upon her tenderly and call her, Wife, She presides over our house. hold, and imparts her smile to eflace tho seuse ol weariness, or 10 enliyen the brow ot care. She watches over the pillow of tho sick; she comforts the poor and the sorrow ing. She bids the tide of tune roll back and brings before our view the memory of other days; the studies and pursuits of our carly years. She carries Us forward into the future and rears in our hearts the aller of heavenly love. lli age, she IS the compan- 'N' VI 'hi I''SAiiii tti' tiib "htNb'''S' '' oar hope. In word, when wethink of pea- sure, we turn from ourselves and look to woman. She alone can bring to life tho spirit, which no soiher power could revive, which no human agency can extingulsh.- Loye is an undying flame. Itis the birthfisht and sceptre of woman.

 The poet has said:--

 .'Men have mafbet; women waxen ninds' And further he adds:-

 ''lle for God only, she for God i'll lam. ."1

 We have tu intention 10 tax the poet with presumption for this, nor do we desire to be taxed with il ourselves. We think that there may be this difference without any dispar agemen to woman. Man has quality of mind which Is adapted to the cares, the dis appointments, tie struggles, the temptations, the hardships, the contests, the bnrthens, the unremitted to of the outer World. Woman possesses all understanding peculiar to her self She is moro apt to learn, more perfect in her sphere than man in his. Hers is n quality of mind suited 10 the calls of love, the endearments of life, the duties of house. hold discipline and parental care, the evefeon- stant changes which pass oyer her head, as unlelt. as they are unprovoked

 There is no difficulty in perceiying the ruth of ths, when we look for a moment at those of the sex who possess the intellectual attributes of men. How far they come shor. of their duties as wives, as molhes, as the guardians of domestic peace How far are they from hcng objects of love and vencra- tioni

 There may be, il is true, a seeming ex- travagance in the expression, slIe for God only; she for God in Mmn--doubtless they are both for God. Bu she who is intended to preside in the domestic circle, must ne- cessarily look up 0 him whose name she bears, who is the guardian of that circle.-- While he acts by means of the endowments of his own mind, he looks, as it were, back into the circle of his joys an9 sees reflected the image of those virtues, which he should practise in his walks through life He comes to her with the impressions, of the outer world; he leads her through that woild and points her to it's wonders and its truths. She opens to him the inner world, discloses to his views it's beauIio, conducts him through its n,azes and leaves him to enjoy its delights, Here she may be said 10 rule, and the words may be revesed and read--

 .shc for God only: he for God in her.

 Through her he looks up to God. Through her, he loves the works of God. Through her, is his spirit humbled and made pnre.- Through her, he has glimpses of life that cannot end.

 Such is woman Sanding as she does, apart and enshrined amid the brightness of her own glory, she seems more perfect even than man. for whom she was intendedas ssan Mlpmate.n IL is in this light only that we should contemplate her. We should see her as she IS, and accord her the powers. and the influence which are rightfully hers. 1t is not by comparison that we are to know her, though she might Challenge comparison and receive our homage as the more perlect.-- Whatsare her attractions? She is fair and comely; she is winning and graceful, she is cheerful and conlented; she is. lovely and att tentive she is kind and considerate; she is generous and dsinieresled; she is just. and faithful; she is pure and holy. w tn these qualities of person and ofthe heart, she com pines the higher endowments of the mind.--. Her reason may be more weak. but 1t Is also Jess sophstical. IL is more direct, and sell dom falls into it's own tolls. It is, therefore, more practical. It may not have the same capacity to analyse it's own movements, but it's conclusions will be as sound, and its ex- plantations more just Her imagination may have less vigor and willness, but t will have more beaiiiy, more expression. Her emo. lions may be less deep and violent, but they are more true and more ennohling.- She may bel more easily moved, but she will not so soon be dispirited. Man relies too much in himself Woman, when her re- liance. in man has been misplaced, relies not in herself, but in God. Her heart IS too pure to hate, her reasonstoo comprehensive to doubt her will too submissive to resist. Viewed in tluslight also, woman rises before us with charm. which no darkness can conceal. She is the life of the moral world. Her instructions are the guides of manly virtue and greatness. Hei tears, her prayers, are the lessons by which every noble char acter is formed. Her tenderness and lovs are the safeguards of every honest heart. lR all these points of view, she lives and acts ,'ior God in hin';

 We are well aware that nothing human IS perfect. Still, i've look at woman, the last, sbest work of the Creator, as entitled to precedence, and every way wortsy to ba viewed in inc Iiobf of her DerfeetonS--tbe
