ffmtoisa OF WOMAN, —Said it noble
woman "f am afraid to live alone,
but I dare not marry unworthily." Is
this nut o . m-heroism ? The woman
who an lien 3: the burden of lift: alone
--who submits cheerfully to a single
life when eirenni4tances hime been tin
kind—who chooses it from a strong
sense of duly, or accepts it for the sake
ofloyalty to the high ideal, is a brave
woman. There is an clement of gran
dure in her composition, and as she is
so far superior to those who marry for
a "home," or for "convenience," or
front fear of becoming "old maids,"
that there ix no comparison between
them. Rut, after all, the woman who
does this simply demands to be let
alone. She begs that you will not sup
pose her insensible to a stab because
she does not cry out. She has her
pride and delicacy, She urges no
claims upon admiration, but she has
no consefousneee of disgrace. One
woule naturally prefer swift death by
a shard blade to a continuous hacking
with a dull weapon ; and the dullards
, who exercise their weak wits upon her
should be pilloried by public acorn.
