THE WIFE TO HER HUSBAND
You took me, William, when a girl, unto your
home and heart,
To bear in all your after fate a fond and faith
ful part;
And tell me, have I ever tried that duty to
forego,
Or pined there was not joy for me, when you
were sunk in woe?
No ; I would rather share your tenr than any
other's glee—
For though you're nothing to the world, you're
all tho world to me;
You make a palaßo of my shed, this rough
hewn bench a throne ;
There's sunlight for me in your smiles ; and
music in your tone.
I look upon you when you sleep—my eyes
with tears grow dim,
I cry, 0, parent of the poor, look down from
heaven on hint ;
Behold him toil from day to day, exhausting
strength and soul ;
0 look with mercy on hint, Lord, for Thou
canst make him whole.
And when at last reviling sleep has on my
eyelids smiled,
How oft are they forbade to close in slumber
by our child
I take the little murmurer that spoils my span
of rest,
And feel it is a part of thee I lull upon my
breast.
There's only ono return I crave, I may not
need it lung,
And it may soothe thee when I'm where the
wretched feel no wrong;
I ask for not less frugal fare, if such as I
have gut
Suffice to make me fair to thee, for more I
murmur not ;
But would I ask some share of hours which
you on clubs bestow ;
Of knowledge which you prize so much, might
I not something know ?
Subtract from meetings amongst men, each
eve, an hour for um,
Make me companion of your soul, as I may
safely be;
If you will read, I'll sit and work; and think
when you're away;
'Less tedious I shall find the time, dear Wil
liam, of your stay.
A meet companion soon I'll be, o'cn of your
studious hours,
And teacher of those little ones you call our
cottage flowers.
HEALTHFUL EXERCISE. A short
walk into the country, particularly in
the morning, when the birds are hold
ing their gay concerts in their leafy
habitations, is worth all the compounds
which were ever crushed into a shape
less mass between pestle and mortar,
or liquidized, crystalized or pulverized
by the most skillful and cfileient dis
ciple of Esculapius: It is invigorating
to both mind and body. It is a relief
which neither Homopathy, Allopatby,
Hydropathy, or any other pathy can
furnish. It is a recipe more sovereign
and infallible than any found in the
whole range of "illzteria Aledica. If
. you have the head ache, the heart
ache, or any other ache which flesh is
heir, to, try it. and if you do not
give it the preference to any nostrum
you have ever taken, then we are wil
ling to admit that we aro a "know no
thing." Depend upon it, it is the best
physician you can consult, and one too
who makes no charges for his visits.—
To the young it furnishes a stimulant
unbounded, healthful and exhilarating,
and with the aged and feeble it works
a complete transfusion of blood. We
do not make these remarks ir. deroga
tion of the medical profession, for doc
tors like lawyers, are necessary evils,
but nature is a wonderful physician,
and pure air a remarkable preservative
of our wasting functions. Ho who
awakes early in the morningand walks
forth to catch the first glimpses of the
rising sun, is but obeying . an acknowl
edged law, that the night is ordained
for sleep and the day as the tithe for
labor and recreation.
Mt- It is well known that an auc
tion of unmarried ladies used to take
place annually in Babylon. "In every
district they assembled on a certain
day of every year all the virgins of
marriageable age." The most beauti
ful was first put up, and the man who
bid the largest sum of money gained
possession of her. The second in per
sonal appearance followed, and the
bidders gratified • themselves with
handsome wives according to the depth
of their purses. But, alas! it seems
that there were in Babylon some la
dies for which no money was likely to
be offered ; yet _these also were dis
posed of; so prOvident were the Baby
lonians. When all the beautiful vir
gins were sold, the crier ordered the
most deformed to stand up, and after
he had openly demanded who would
marry her for a small sum, she was at
length adjudged to the man who would
be satitied with the least; and in this
manner the money arising from the
sale of the handsome served as a por
tion of those who were either of disa
greeable looks, or that had any imper
fection. This custom prevailed about
five hundred years before Christ.

A gossiping Paris correspondent re
lates the annexed French story of a
recent marriage in Paris:
Nobody talks about anything now,
except the strange marriage of the
Marquis of o*** to an English woman,
somewhat ripe, it is true, but we add,
par parentheso, possessed of a fortune
sufficient to change into lillies and ro
ses her somewhat passe face, and con
vert her into a dulcina not less charm
ing than she of the knight of La Man
cha.
But that which gives piquancy to
the affair is a little history connected
with their antecedents, and of which
the following is an epitome:
It appears that the rich Anglaise
came to Paris last winter, in regal
style, and with a determination to give
away her hand an'd heart to a gentle.
man, young and titled, an idea that
had been ripening in her mind for a
long time, on account of the lack of a
powerful ally, money, in the shape of
an enormous heritage which ought to
have arrived from the East Indies, but
which did not.
It is easy to say that when it did
come, there was no lack of suitors fin•
the hand of the grand (although passe)
Anglaise. She soon had numerous lo
vers, but she had already given her
heart to young Marquis C—, whom
she had seen in the "grand mondo."—
Unhappily for her flame, ho paid no
regard to the attentions of the rich
quadragonarian—pretty women and
cards taking up all his limo and atten
tion.
The Marquis was about 25 years old,
and possessed of a fortune of somewhat
over a. half a million francs, which en
abled him to live handsomely, without
hunting for her millions. But nothing
is so tenacious as an old English vo
man, and in order to bring the object
of her passion to her feet, she made use
of a most singular expedient.
She followed him to a watering
place, where the "game" was going on.
She well knew that clubs and spades
sometimes "held the ago" over the
handsomest brunette, or fairest blonde,
in a young man's heart; in fact, she
knew that the marquis gained deeply,
and on this knowledge built her plans.
She let the marquis establish a ta Lie de
jest, without appearing to notice him
in any way; then, alter he was well in
to the whirl of rouge et noir, wishing to
attack this "insensible" through his
"darling sin,4she invited one day, to
her house ono of those "Greeks," that
aro met everywhere at the green table
and who conceal their ignoble calling
under a varnish of dandyism, of elo
quence, and oven instruction, which
serves to deceive sometimes even the
most suspicious.
"Monsieur," said she, "I know who
you arc, and your profession; I have
found out who von are—no matter
how. Here are my proofs of your pros
fession. You know I can ruin you if
I wisi."
The "Greek" had no need of further
proof than the word of I'Anglaise to
convice him that he was at her mercy.
"Now, I can ruin you," she said, "if
I wish, but if you will only serve me
in a little affair, I will not do so."
"Speak, mada.me," answered he, "I
am at your service." •
"Do you know Monsieur lo Marquis
do C—?" coolly asked l'Anglaise.
"Yes, madame," answoi•ed the Greek
with a low bow.
"I wish you to entrap him into play
(no difficulty about that you know,)
and win from him not only the amount
of money he bus on him, no small sum,
as a general thing, but at least 500,000
francs, which is about all his fortune."
The "Greek," stupefied, reflected an
instant, and then a diabolical smile
passed over his countenance. "I un
derstand; you wish that I should win
500,000 franks and divide that with you.
Tho proud Anglaise betrayed a
movement of indignation, and then
said, in the most disdainful tone: "El
done! Look out for yourself alone !
But understand me; if the 'Marquis es
capes from your hands without being
ruined, I ruin you forever here and
elsewhere, In a word, I will publish
all that I know of you—now go !" She
took leave of him with a superb bow.
The gambler took leave of her with
a mixed feeling of pleasure and unea
siness. He was uneasy at the idea of
those papers being in her hand, and
pleased at the idea of a "pigeon." In
truth, I cannot begin to describe to
you our Greek's feelings—but before
three days, he had managed to get on
the most intimate terms with the Mar
quis—and in a couple of days more,
the pair spent the night autour dun ta
pis vent; and then, of course, every sue.
ceeding night, in the apartments of one
or the other. In-short, at the end of
a month, the fortune offered to the
Greek was considerably absorbed; and
at the end of two mouths there re—
mained not a shadow of it.
Meanwhile, while this poor fool was
being thus fleeced, our Anglaise took
good care to show off her riches to the
plucked ono. Sho talked to him of the
millions that she had inherited in In
dia,and dazzled his eyes with her dia
monds, rubies, sapphires, and God
knows what. At last she played her
game so well that the poor "garcon,"
reduced to extremities, wound up by
opening his ears . and closing his eyes,
accepted the hand of our heroine and
all her riches !
•The union was determined upon,
and soon La .11Tadelaino received the
"9)appy pair." The Marquis did not
wish any invitations. The Anglaise
did,and all Paris was invited and went.
M.A. man having a very stingy
wife she, on one oceasion, received his
friends in the drawing room with a
single candle. "Be pleased, my dear,
to let us have a second candle, that we
may see whore the other stands."

-PERSEVERE.-
The Confederate Respoot for their
Dead.
The following article from the Sa_.
vanab Republican, a Union paper, shows
the respect which the rebels entertain
for their dead :
According, to the announcement
made in the city journals, yesterday
was the time appointed for the com
memoration of the battle of Sailor's
Creek, the last fearhil struggle of the
Confederate troops under Gen. Lee for
the defeat and overthrow of the Fed
eral army in Virginia. A more propi
tious dry could not have been selected.
The atmosphere was June-like, a little
too warm for comfort; but during the
afternoon a gentle breeze sprang up,
which made a walk to the silent "city
of the dead" very pleasant, if we may
be allowed to use such an expression.
During the day hundreds of our' citi—
zens slowly wended their way to the
beautiful cemetery, bearing fragrant
flowers, wrought into the most chaste
floral designs, such as crosses,wreatbs,
anchors, hearts and choice boquents.
The road leading to Laurel Grove
literally swarmed with people, rich and
poor, old and young, whh solemn
mien uniting in the simple and touch
ing demonstration of love and affect
ion. - Vehicles of every description were
constantly moving to and fro, convey
ing sad and grief stricken hearts to
the graves ofgallant men. Wo enter
ed the simple gate at the lodge just at
sunset, and the scene that met our
gaze as we roue quietly along the sha
ded serpentine paths was such a sok
emn one as we have never before wit
nessed. The golden shadows of the
sun's declining rays shed their soft and
mellow light over the entire fbliage
which swayed mournfully in the gen
tle breeze, while groups of lovely wo
men and innocent children, with here
and there a father, brother or comrade,
stood motionless, watching over the
little clods of earth as if in communion
with the departed spirits, whose earth
ly tenements lay mouldering in the
dust. Deprecating the cause in whirl
these brave spirits fell; as we conscien
tiously do, and however diversified•
may be the opinions of many of our
readers as to the terrible ordeal of
blood and fire through which our nos
tion has just passed, we feel that no
human heart could behold this solemn
spectacle without feeling a throb of
deep pity, and a warm glow of chris-
Otto sympathy. We felt tthe wounds of
war open afresh in our bosom as we
beheld devoted mothers, wives and sis
ters clad in the habiliments of woo,
kneeling at the graves - to strew flow
ers of holy love and affection, while
the briny- tears gushed from the win
dows of the soul. It was pitiful to
hear the sobs of children as their lit.
tle hearts racked with grief and do•
spair for those dear to them that lay
beneath the 'sod, while from the dis
taut camp of the 12th Maine Re gi ment
wa s borne in the cool evening breeze
the stirring strains of a brass band,the
melody floating through the grove of
trees until at last cadence died away
in sadness, while the blue haze of eve
ning slowly began to envelope the
scene and draw Cho curtain of twilight
over the picture. There wore no signs
of merriment, and as the festoons of
funeral like moss swayed from the
branches of the pine, sycamore, oak
and magnolia, subited voices were
heard enumerating the virtues of the
dead. The graves of the Confederate
dead were el.tborately decorated with
the rarest flowers and presented a
beautiful appearance, in impressive
harmony with the air of tranquility
that dwelt in all the surroundings. Not
a single grave but what was decorated
by the fair hands of tender womon;and
we felt that cold indeed must be the
heart which could not forget and for
give the animosities and prejudices of
the past as Ile beheld this panorama of
afflictioo, and we trust that those who
assembled yesterday to honor the dead
of the South did not forget that other
households were draped—that North
ern hearts were pierced by the • same
poignant grief.
While making our way from the ceme
tery, wo rode past the simple little on.
closure where repose all that is mortal
of the Union dead. We pictured the he
roic spirits of these gallant men cloth
ed in the armor of loya'oty sitting at
the bar of eternal judgment to receive
their just reward. But where were
tender flowers of affection to deck
their graves? Where was the fragrant
incense of remembrance to ascend for
their valor? Alone, far from the scenes
of their childhood, away from home
kindred, they "sleep their last sleep,"
but not forgotten nor unhonored. Let
the Union ladies and gentlemen of our
city see to it that theSe sacred re•
mains receive on the first day of May
a floral token of our undying love and
admiration for those who stood by the
flag when heavens scowled in anal-,
and the clouds of despair and woo
hung like a canopy of death over out
land.
Let us assemble, and with contrite
hearts, free from all hostile feelings,
usher in the month of Clay with pray
er over the graves of our dead, while
the perfume of fresh flowers fill the air.
While we condole and deeply sympa
thise with those who have suffered in
a cause we could not espouse, let us
not be totally indifferent to the claims
of those whose memories will over be
enshrined in our hearts, and whose
courage and fidelity future generations
will hallow.

RECONSTRUCTION.
A Plan Perfected by the Reconstruc-
tion Committee,
WASHINGTON, April 28, 1.866
The Reconstruction Committee, pur
suant to adjournment, held a very im
portant meeting to day at the capitol.
during which they definitely agreed
on a plan to be submitted to Congress
and the country for the reconstruction
of the Southern States to the Union.
The Committee were in session four
hours, and had an exciting time. Each
separate proposition that was made
was voted on, and declared agreed to
by a majority vote. The question of
requiring negro suffrage of the South
within the next ten years was lost,
Thad Stevens even opposing it.
- That
having been disposed of, the issue of a
basis of representation next elicited a
prolonged discussion, and it was final
ly determined that a constitutional
amendment should be proposed, de
claring that all males above the ago of
twenty one, who were not allowed to
vote by the States, should not be coun
ted in the basis of 'representation.
Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, then insisted
that the present Civil Rights bill was
unconstitutional, and that an amend ,
ment to the constitution. guaranteeing
civil rights to persons in all of the
States would be agreed to. The Com
mittee adopted the proposition.
It was then resolved that all who
participated in the rebellion should bo
disfranchised from voting for Federal
officers, and that the rebel debt should
be repudiated. These several proposi
tions were then embodied in a consti ,
tutional amendment. There was con
siderable satisfaction expressed in the
Committee that they had come to a
conclusion.
The following is the report of the
Committee :
A joint resolution proposing an amend
ment to the Constitution of the United
States
Be it resolved by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the Uni•
ted States of America in Congress as
sembled, two thirds of both Houses
concurring, That the following article
be proposed to the Legislatures of the
several States as an amendment to the
Constitution, which, when ratified by
three fourths of the said Legislatures,
shall be valid as a part of the Constitu.
Lion, namely :
AIM= . Section 1. No State
shall make or enforce any law which
shall abridge the privileges or immu
nities of citizens of the United States;
nor shall any State deprive any per
son of life, liberty, or property without
due process of law, nor deny to any
person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.
Sec. 2. Representatives shall be ap•
portioned among the several States
which may be included within this
Union, according to their' resp^.ctivc
numbers, counting the whole number
of persons in each State, excluding In
dians not taxed. But whenever, in
any State, the elective franchise shall
be denied to any portion of its male
citizens, not less than twenty ono
years of age, or in any way abridged,
except for participation in rebellion or
other crime, the basis of representation
in such State shall be reduced in the
proportion which the number of inch
turtle citizens shall bear to the whole
number of male citizens not less than
twenty one years of age.
Sec. 3. Until the 4th day of July,
1870, all persons who voluntarily ad—
hered to the Into insurrection, giving
it aid and comfort, shall ho excluded
from the right to vote for members of
Congress and for electors for President
and vice president of the United States
Sec. 4. Neither the United States nor
any State shall assume or pay any debt
or obligation already incurred or which
may hereafter be incurred in aid of
the insurrection or war against the
United States, or any claim for corn,
pensation for loss of involuntary ser
vice or labor.
Sec. 5. The Congress shall have pow.
er to enforce by appropriate legislation
the provisions of this article.
A bill to provide for the restoration of the
States lately in insurrection, to their
full political rights.
Whereas, It is expedient that the
States lately in insurrection should, at
the earliest day consistent with the fu
ture peace and safety of the Union, be
restored to full participation in all po—
litical rights; and
Whereas., The Congress did, by joint
resolution, propose for ratification to
the Legislatures of the several States,
as an amendment to the Constitution
of the United States, an article in the
following words, to wit : [The consti—
tutional article recited above is hero
inserted.]
Now, therefore, be it enacted, etc.,
That whenever the above recited
amendment shall have become a part
of the Constitution, and any State late
ly in insurrection shall have ratified
the same, and shall have modified its
constitution and laws in confbrmity
therewith, the Senators and .Represen
tatives from such State, if found duly
elected and qualified, may, after hav
ing taken the required oaths of office,
be admitted into Congress as such.
And be it further enacted, That
when any State lately in insurrection
shall have ratified the foregoing pro
posed amendment to the Constitution.
any part of the direct tax under the
net of August 5,1861, which may re
main due and unpaid in such State,

The Radical Programme--The Ukase
of Wondell Phillips.
Wendell Phillips has issned his re
script to the radicals in Congress.
Here is the programme which he
marks out for their adoption :
"Our true pulicy is this: Lot Con—
gress plainly announce its belief that
no State lately in rebellion is fit to be
readmitted to Congress. Let it lay
down the principle that no one shall
ever be admitted except it establishes,
or at least impartial suffrage, and then
let Congress adjourn. _every day it
continues in session jeopards the great
cause. It may bo bought ; 'bullied, or
deceived. All tends that way while it
is in session, exposed to administrative
influence. Once adjourned, let the
lines be strictly drawn, and go to work
to meet 1868 in earnest; the interval
between now and the • next elections,
State, National, and Presidential, is
none too long for the work. The trees
on ofPresidentJohnson,and the impos
sibility of impeaching him, laave no
hope for an earlier settlement. It is
just as well, and much safer, to ac
knowledge this, to adjourn and go to
the people on this issue is saving time.
In this way, spite of the President,
the whole truth of the war may be
saved. With the lines distinctly drawn,
the fight above board and acknowled
ged, the issue fairly presented, and
every Congressman stumpinm ts his own
State, the nation may yet be founded
and built up on impartial and absolute
justice. Our Now England air will
save some of our Senators at least
from the compromise malaria of Penn
sylvania avenue.
"Any other course—drifting about
in a storm of constitutional amend
ments pilot blinded or drugged, and
rudder unshipped—allows timid and
heedless Senators to put us,bound hand
and foot, into the hnnds of the enemy,
under pretense of beingpractieal states
men. Any other course runs the risk
of giving us another ten years of just
such dislocated, discordant, and peril
ous national life as we have passed
through since 1856. Adjourn Con•
gross, then. Let every member turn
himself into witness, teacher, and drill
master, and let our bugle call be, No
State admitted at present, and none
over admitted, which has the word
'white' or the recognition of race in its
statute books."
We apprehend that, when they can
get their courage up to the "sticking
point," that is precisely the course
which the radicals in Congress will en
cleaver to pursue. "Universal negro
suffrage," as the condition sine qua non
of therestoration of the Union, is now,
and has been from the beginning of the
session, the grand goal and object of
all their effort. They have cloaked it
more or less, partly from policy and
partly from fear; but the time is draw
ing nigh when they can cloak it no
longer. The whole subject of restora•
tion was first put into the hands of the
Reconstruction Committee, there to
await the manipulations necessary for
suceess. Each House was pledged to
admit no member from the Smith un
til that Committee should have repor
ted, and until final action should have
been taken by both Houses on that re
port. This tied Congress hand and
foot, and left the field perfectly clear
for the grand campaign. Every at.
tempt that has since betin. made to
draw attention to the case of Tennes
see, to the returns and qualifications
of Southern members, to the testimotiy
reported by the Committee, or to - any
other branch of this general subject,
has been summarily squelched by
ing sent, under the Speaker's ruling,to
this Comruitteo. And there everything

rests, under lock and key, and the in
junction of secrecy, to this hour.
Meantime all the talk and all the
excitement that has been raised about
Constitutional amendments, equality
of Civil Rights ' status of the Rebel
States, etc. etc., has been simply dust
thrown in the eyes of the public to
cover the approach to the grand fun
damental, indispensable principle of
universal negro suffrage, as the condi
tion without which no Southern State
should ever again be admitted to tbo
Union. This is the secret of all the
elaborate legal endeavors to prove that
the Union is destroyed—that the States
went out of it, and that they ears get
back only on such conditions as. Con;
gross may prescribe. This was the
reason why Stevens proclaimed them
conquered States,deprived of all rights,
excluded from the protection of the
Constitution, and to be dealt with as
conquered subjects at the sovereign
will and pleasure of the conquerors.
This was the object of Mr. Shellabar
ger's studied legal argument in sup
port of the doctrine of State suicide,
and of his more recent effort to prove
that, even if the Rebel States are in
the Union, they may rightfully be held
to have forfeited all the rights of citi
zenship under the Constitution. The
feebler but still more zealous 'efforts of
Hart, Ward, Holmes, and other radix
cal members from this State, 'have all
aimed at the same thing—namely, to
lay a foundation for demanding at the
hands of the South, universal negro
suffrage as the condition of restoration.
The plan does not work quite to their
liking. Some of the more timid among
them begin to doubt whelher it is quite
safe. Its strength with the people
does not quite equal their anticipations.
The President is more obstinate in his
fidelity to the principles and platforra
of the Union party than they expect
ed. The country is not convinced that ,
the Southern States are out of the
Union, that their people are conquered
subjects, or that Congress has the right
to lbrco universal negro suffrage upon
them. And if recent reports from our
Washington correspondents may be
trusted, these radical gentlemen from
Now York and other powerful States
of the North and West, are holding
caucuses and preparing for a change
of base, by way of preparation for the
coming political campaign.
We fear they will find this operation
not quite so easy as it may seem. They
have put themselves into the hands of
leaders who are too much in earnest
to flinch, and too reckless themselves
to care much what may become of
their followers. Mr. Stevens announc
ed very early in the session that ho
and the friends of universal negro suf
frage were strong enough by uniting
with the Democrats to defeat any oth
er kind of negro suffrage, and on the
District of Columbia, question they did
it. We doubt not they will, in case of
emergency, do precisely the same
thing again. The radicals on the Re ,
construction Committee will follow the
policy marked out by Wendell Phillips,
who is really the leader of the radical
movement. They will report in favor
of universal negro suffrage as the only
basis on which the Union shall be re.
stored—as the only condition on which
the Southern States shall over again
be represented in Congress—and they
will require these hesitating, halting
gentlemen to walk up to the murk
,and vote with them in its support. The
probability is that they will carry their
point hereafter as they have carried
every point hitherto. They have ex
cluded Tennessee, in spite of the con
viction of three fourths of the House
that her members ought to be admit
ted. They have repeatedly passed
resolutions insulting the President, in
spite of a-professed desire for harmony
between the Executive and Legislative
departments of the Government. And
they:have passed against the veto, by
overwhelming majorities with loud ar
plause, a bill which a majority of their
own fiction admitted, by necessary
implication, to be utterly beyond the
constitutional authority of Congress.
And all this has been done by party
drill and by patty menace. And what
has thus been done so often will doubt
less thus be done again.
Wendell Phillips evidently distrusts
the firmness and principle of his fol
lowers. Ho-fears their stay in Wash
ington will subject them to "Adminis
trative influences," and that they will
not be proof against thorn. He has
been pretty successful, it must be con
fessed, in placing them beyond the
reach of all such influences, and in an
attitude of open and insulting hostility
to the Administration itself. But of
even this he is clearly distrustful. Ho
thinks they had better issue their u/s
amazon and go home to their constitu
ents, and for once wo concur most
heartily with him in opinion.
SIIALL I laAnx To - DAscE,Certainly,
by all means. Commence with the
"quick•step" outof bed in the morning,
and keep it up until the "chores" aro
fi»ishod. The boys, of course lave a
"cow drill" at the barn, whi'e the girls
are engaged in a "country dance" in
the kitchen. After this, all bands
"change" and promenade to school,
keeping time to the music of merry
laughter. Repeat the same on the way
home at night, with an occasional va
riation in winter by "tripping the too"
and baying a "breakdown," in a snow
bank. A "reel" now and then will b 5
quite in place for the girls who have
learned to spin, but the boys should
never think of it.
