THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1870.
From tht London Saturday tltvirte.
A. number of good old-fashioned worda,
thoee piotorial and uncompromising epithets
in which our forefathers dolighted, hdva gone
out of date, and in their Htcad wo have polite
paraphrases which avoid nothing so much as
calling things by their right names. Thus we
have no shrews or scolds now; we have sensi
tive tempornmcnts and nervoni organizations,
we have irritable naturos and difficult tem
pers, but of hhrews or scolds we have as little
as of the ducking-stool which was their pun
ishment. And yet the class survives, though
its name and award have both passod away,
and though the form is considerably modi
fled; for the Victorian shrow is very unlike
her older Elizabethan sister, happily for those
of us who have to dwell withiu her
sphere. Such a young porson as "Ktthe-
nne tne curst coma not exist lor a
moment in any decent drawing-room;
and what even the noblest and purest of
Shakespeare's womon were pormittod to say
without the loss of dignity or consideration
would Bubjoct any modem tradesman's wife
to unconditional condemnation, and a charac
ter torn into such rags as could never be re-
E aired. But for all its softer manifestation
umanity is not yet purged of its evil humor
of shrewishness that evil humor which has
existed as long as humanity itself. History
is full of -stories of shrews, of whom of oouwe
the archetype is Xantippe. But it seems to
Lave been the lot of many great
men beside Socrates to have had
the same ill-luck in their matrimonial
ventures, and to have drawn a vixen when
thoy pnt in for a wife. Albert Dnrer drew
such a questionable prize; Milton another;
Palissy was belabored with his wife's not un
natural reprouchos when one by one her
household goods were token to feed that
ravenous furnace of his, and the children
cried for the bread which was sacrificed in
the search after white enamel. Ferhans it is
part of the moral training of a certain kind of
hero that he should have a shrewish wife, on
the prinoiple of the graoe which comes by
tribulation, and the nobleness to be got at

"J " J t o "
HfllvAs to. shrewish wives, and curst temners
I J have been mated with patient ones more fre
V quently than happily.
A shrew is by no means a virago, bho may
be a vixen, but she is seldom ferocious. Her
pleasure is to scold, not to strike, and she is
more likely to excite a fray thnn to join ia it
-when it has developed into a fight. Such as
the old masters painted her as in their day of
the highest classes, she is found now only
among the people, where indeed she is not
infrequent that shrill-voiced, ferret-eyed,
sharp-nosed little woman we all know of,
standing with her arms akimbo, ready to take
fire at the faintest spark, and scolding at all
if creation. Every village and country
town has such a woman the dread of the
children and meeker kind of young folks in
her district, the sport of rudo boys whs like
to "set hor off" from a safe distance, and
the scoff of beery men who ohaff her husband
in their heavy way about tho grey mare at
home; but with all that she keeps a tidy
hearth, saves money, and has as good a name
for honesty as tor industry. She brings up
her family after the strictest pattern of mora
lity, leading them into the way they should
go by thuuipings and railings that never end,
and she would disown any of them who by
chance lapsed into public transgression; yet
she drives her husband to the ale-house, as
Eip Van Winkle's wife drove hers by the
force of her tongue alone, driving
her sons after him, while her daugh
ters take to showy dresses and illicit
love-making, as their form of dram-drinking,
to help them over the hard lines laid down for
them by their shrewish mother. So that, in
spite of herself and all her cares, the family
of the village soold more often than not
turns out badly, simply because of her un
governable temper. Every community has
one such member, a busy, bustling, notable
little woman who halves hor life between
11 toiling and railing, working hard to keep her
family respectable, but succeeding for the
most part omy iu iuaaiug vueui uiiserauio,
and who, when she dies, dies in a chorus of
commendation, unloved and unregretted by
all.
But beyond this primitive type of the
shrew, we have enough and to spare of a more
refined kind among the educated; good
women who do not flirt, nor spend too much
J 1 1- - L A.
i money on urews or pleasure, wuo aro huuiuui
i to stay at home and look after their houses
and children, but who take out in ill-temper
what they deny to naughtiness, and think
(l themselves justified because their sins are not
tnose oi tne lust 01 tne nesn or tne prmo or
life. The house over which a shrew presides
is a weariness to the souls of those forced to
dwell therein. She is forever scolding the
servants when she is not changing them; and
servants never do well when they are soolded.
Either it makes them more stupid than they
were before, or it rouses their bad passions, and
turns an unintentional mistake into a wilful
misdeed. But the shrew cannot be taught
this; nor can she make allowance for human
infirmities. With her those uneducated maids
and men who do her service must be free from
all traoes of orlfiiaalBin, and from all the con
sequences of ignorance. They must be able
too to bear nnjust rebuke without bo muoh as
looking a remonstrance, and if they venture
to express one it is sure to end in an angry
warning "this day month." The same kind
of thing goes on with her children. There is
no good-natured slipping over faults, no
smoothing away of dillicultios, no making the
best of the bad, and so escaping the full
flavor of evils which are bad enough at
the best; she worries and drives and
soolds them through the whole of
the day, then wonders that they
shrink from her, and that their very fear in
duces falsehood. As for hor husband, she is
of Cso much use by her perpetual nagging
that she saves the necessity of purgatory after
death by giving him the full benefit of it be
forehand. If lie quietly withdraws from tne
unequal contebt, and leaves her to her shrew-
ishness wnno ne betakes nimsell to ms ciuo,
she then makes capital out of her wrongs and
loudly sets forth her virtues; how she has
always done hor best to save his pocket; how
she has been a faithful wife and careful
mnfliAr. and worked and kent hoiiRA HIta nn
A elave, while others, whose huHbands idolize
If them, spent and racketed, and have
1 had more than one flirtation such
as a married woman should not have. And
yet look at them and their husbands, and
then see the difference with hers. Poor
shrew! that proverb about the dinner of herbs
and the stalled ox hai never carried any
weight with her or taught her any lesson.
As with the village scold, so with a shrew of
the neper class; her children either leave
home prematurely or marry ill. They neither
eee nor care for the real love and sterling
goodness often underlying that bitter temper;
all thev know is that mamma is always cross
and that Bhe makes tkeir lives wretched. And
as we are all more or less superficial in our
indumenta, and swayed by our own selnsh
tiain or pleasure, preferring to be made
-
happy by a little loss rigid morality rather i
than unhappy by extra virtue, we can scarcely
blame the children of the shrew for not
divining what they do not. see, and for doing
their best to escape from what thoy suffer.
I'.ut ninnj a shrew has broken her heart before
now for what Rooms to be the ingratitude and
coldness of thoso whom hor own temper only
drove from her.
Shrews are generally inclined to tnoannons
of habit and stinginess of dealing; neither
are they women of luxurious temperament.
A woman may be violent, passionate, joalous,
and unreasonable, with blood boiling at all
points, as ardent in anger as in love, and
fierce in all her past ions, but she is not a
shrew. The shrew proper is a thin-lipped,
tinsensnous woman, unmerciful to "hussies,"
and intolerant of self-indulgence. There is
something in the very fact of being at loose
ends in morality that seems to soften people's
tempers, save indeed when the whole nature
is coarsely wrong and violent altogether;
while a woman who is absolutely impec
cable on tho score of discretion often gives
herself no trouble on that of amia
bility. She seems to think that nothing
else is needed if only Mrs. Grundy is satis
fied, and that to be good and disagreeable is
not tho high treason ogainst virtue which the
old saying makes it out to be. Perhaps,
however, it is too much to expect poor hu
manity to be square on all four sides, and
right in every corner. Men rarely scold as
womon scold. A few do so, certainly, all
types running into eaoh other; but men are
kept in order by the fact of physical strength,
as well as by a certain instinctive
respect for each other which women
have not got. Men could not be
brought to Buffer from one another what
women bear from women; honoe a soolding
man generally takes his wife and daughters
for his vessels of wroth, their sex rendoring
them incapable of punishing him, save by
retaliation in kino, when they generally come
the worst off. Tor in a soolding match, as
everywhere else, the heavier metnl must tell,
and when men are shrews at all they surpass
even tne shrewishness ot women.
But though we can afford to laugh at it
from a safe distance, the fault of shrewish
ness is indeed a great one. uidon times ap
preciated it at rather a high figure. The
cucking-stool wherein the scold was bound
before ner own door to be pelted and in
suited by the mob, and the ducking-stool
in which she was ducked and half -drowned,
were rough modes of showing dislike
to an unpleasant habit. Certainly we do not
wish to see them revived, and, indeed, we
rarely meet nowadays with the same kind or
amount of shrewishness that was once so
general in all classes, and punished so
severely among the poor. Manners have so
far softened and become refined, that a shrew
of the lady class, however shrewish she may
be, has to refrain from abusive epithets tinder
pain of class degradation, and must confine
herself to the expression of her displeasure
without tho aid of full-flavored adjectives
let, though the form may be so much
softened, the vice is not eradicated;
and what we want to make clear is, that
scolding is a vice like that of any other, diffi
cult to shake off when once adopted, and one
that eats into the moral nature more deeply
than people are aware of. And the odd part
of the business is that most shrows are un
conscious of deserving blame. The woman
who rails and fumes at every trifling annoy
ance that occurs till she makes the whole
house miserable, does not Know that she is
committing a sin. She only thinks herself
wronged by circumstances or by people, and
that Bhe is exercising a righteous indignation,
and making a quite justifiable protest
against the same. She does not droam that
Bhe is digging the grave of her own happiness
and esteem; but, after she has worried
her family to the very verge of madness.
laments her hard case in not being loved
Bhe who wonld do so much for them ! So she
would in all probability; for nine times out
of ten it is her temper, not her heart, that is
in fault, and we frequently find the most un
comfortable shrew capable of the most heroic
virtue when the pinch comes. Yet as pinches
are only occasional, and the ordinary monoto
nous highway the place we mostly walk in
the shrew's heroio virtues are brought into
play but rarely, while her shrewishness is
thing of every day, and her power and
habit of making people unhappy one that
has no ending save in death.
