Short Patent Sernion.:. .
My text this morning ii.contained inithese
word.:
How solvelesi is woman? .
How tender is a woman I
How loving is a woman! .
How obild-like is woman 9
My hearers—sure enough' bow solveless is
woman!' She is an unguessable riddle—a
most intricate enigma; ailoiver by analyzing,
no one.can tell to a certainty whether it be
poisolious or inoxous—not always." She is
comparatively an unexplur.d alphabet of
hieroglyphics—a magnetic mystery. Nobody
knows what her bean contains. Sometimes
it seems staffed with her love, tenderness and
sympathy, and at others'filled with nothing
but grit and gravel. It won't answer to skabe
her; you cause_the acids and alkalies in her
heart to come iu contact; 'and then sdch an
effervescence takes place as' might lower the
ambition of pearlash and cider.
'Like the mouth of Aptil she lean sunshine
and. flowers. Many a teardrop evaporates in
the warm light of her smile, ere it has a
chaner to 'fall ; and many a bright-smile is
rndaenly quenched by a sparkle 'of some
pa=sing . cloud of sorrow about the size of a
blanket.
....t69 62
Griefs bubble up - from" her bosom to burst
into an atmosphere of joy, like autumnal
flowers spring from the warm bed of her heart,
to be cut down by tb's sudden frost of grief.
- A queer compound - is woman I She is made of
modesty, boldness, beauty; silks, satin4,‘jeal
-ousy„ love, hatred, horsehair, whale-bone,
piety, paint, gaiety. gurnalastic, bear's grease.
sympathy, tears, smiles, affections and kind
ness. She talks with bar tongue, speaks with
her eyes, is eloquent in her actions, and yet I
cannot understand it. -
My friends—how - tender as a chicken, and
as . tough as an old gobbler: She must lie
screened from the hot summer's sun—shelter
ed from storms and protected from the bleats
of winter—and yet, if she makes up tier mind
to-do it she can out sweat a northeaster, and
be a match for the devil. But inwardly, she
is- as tender as the mercies of heaven; hey
heart is ss much softer than.human's as bee's
wax is softer than,a brickbat. Her many
sympathies are as as delicate as the down
on rowels-and her love appears as •fresh and
unfaded amid the sorrows -of adversity
.as
the evergreen wreath that encircles the brow
of old winter. Her tenderness is too tough
to be destrowed by what chance, time or ler.
tune may bring; as tough,as,tripe arid twice
as common. •
My dear Mends—how tender is woman!
No matter whether born in a cellar she can
sometimes - be as Jofty as a garret. . When
she once gets her tack up, 0, cats and broom
sticks ! look for vourselves.
She is as high as Olympus, and savage as
a sausage machine. - In high wrath she is as
erazy as a bedbug, as strong as a- tiger and
as terrible as a tornado. She can blaze away
as though hell, heavelf , ,und earth•were com-.
ing to elose quarters; but in a few momenta
it-, is ,all .over—nobody jzilled. Thew she
comes down from the mountains whence
she has thrown big atoneS upon 'the people
below; softens. down to a jelly, end becomes
as quiescent as . rt 'goose pond after a tem
pest. -The breeches won't fit,--sbe must re
sume the petticoat and be a woman after all.
6.1,327 69
My bearere---bow loVing i 3 woman ! Aye,
she 14 amazingly 'sickly in her attachments.
She' will: cling to the•chOsen object of her
heart like a possum , io a gum tree, and you
can't separate her without snapping strings
that °nett tan mend', and leaving a portion
of her soul upon the upper leather of her af
fection. She will sometime see something to
love, where others can discover nothiagto ad
mire; and when her fondness is once . fastened
on a feller'it sticks like glue-in a buSby bead
of hair. . ,
My bearers—how child like is woman! A
plaything hirself, 40 is fond of every play.'
thing in the world's great toy, shop. .Her
lintYie is the realm v
ac fancy—her existence is
very ideal reality—ber very miseries are min
gled with a pleasing romance-r—her preseut'is
Always bright, and bei future still brighter.
Would that I were a woman, to be pleased
with every, puppy that pops its head above
the weeds of a wicked world, : and have no
thorns to molest me while gathering the wild
flowers of imagination. Child-like woman is
very happy. Tickled with the straw of flatte
ry, delighted with the very rainbow tinted
bubble that floats upon the wave of time—as
antic as a young coon is' by moonlight, and
as a crieket, sbe dances in the 'sunlight of
joy, and Eeetna to use every endeavor to coax
us males, moody mortals, into brighter and
happier 'Paths. So mote it be.
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMEin AND PlLLS.— Extra.
ordinary cure of Erylipeloe.—Mrs. Emma
ROwecroft, aged 42, of St. Pauls, Minnesota
Territory, suffered severely' , from , periodical
attacks of erysipelas in the, face, to-which she
appeared to have a constitutional predispo
sition. In July last she had a return of the
complaint, with unusually violent and daoT
gerous symptoms, and udder the' advice of
a friend from New York,
.obtained a lot of
Holloway's Ointment, and, applied it accord
ing to, the directions.. The result amazed as
well as delighted the uniortanae sufferer and'
her. family. The inflaninsatory symptoms
subsided, the redness faded; in *course of a
few days to a yellowish hue,.and the cuticle,
or scarfakio: on -the parts' affected, Came 'off
in the form of a whitish scurf. A second box
completed the cure, leaving neither scar nor
blemish on the face. I.The .Pills are as effica
nitwit .in subduing . internal - disease,as the'
