".You surely are not going to put those feathers I
.. into, peel- bonnet, my dear Mary?' said Edward
Burgess to his young - and pretty, but somewhat
-'wilfu}:and vain wife.
"And why not?": . was the petulant reply.-
- ,4 What ails the feathers, Pray?"
"Nothing ails them, as far as 'I can judge," said
her -husband ; !•nnly that they are quite audit for
„you to wear."
• •-. '"Unfit why unfit 3 lam surel can see no
'thing unfit in.a plume of black feathers for me
any more t in•any one else. Ilufit, indeed!"
Why, tny dliar Mary, surely you must allow
that they do hot agree, with . our situation in life.
Feathers,lowers, and such finery are, in my opin
:.,ipz quite out of place on - .the wife of a man just
commencing business. :And besides, dove, when I
• tell you that I disappriaVe of;them, I am sure you
_ will readily give them up..".
"Indeed, I shall do rib Such thing. 'Very pretty,
truly!. fle , cause you have taken a dislike to the
I
'feathers; lam forbidden to wear them. it is down-
'right tyranny, and what I will never submit to."
tWell, if yeAgirefer feathers tome, wear them
by all ineansllAnd the &Sapp:doted husband left
_the room,
Meineme, Mrs. Burgess prOceeded with her
work,. but although on trying on her bonnet, deco
rated !with the really handsome black plume,'ehe
exclaimed with delight; Beautiful I exquisite she
cciuldtiot but be sensible of an uneasy sensation
at her heart, as if all were not quite right there.
Mary Burges.s had notheen a wife mord than two
months when the colloquy above related occurred-
Without being exactly evil disposed, she unfortun.
ately Possessed many unamiable qualities, among
-vibich, the most , prominent were vanity,---an Over
whelming opinion of her own mental and personal
superiority—and the most profound selfishness.
Her vanity and self conceit had been cherished
by the. injudiciods training of a week minded mo
'ther; as she was really a pretty girl, they had been
encouraged, in _no slight degree by the attentions
and flattery - of the other seF.
It is no -wonder, ,therefore, that Mrs. Burgess
conceived she conferred an honor on the man .she
lion' to exact from him all the devotion and hom
age
she lead been accustomed to receive fromher
lovers.
As I said before, they were but just a. firied and
Edward:had opened a shop in a:respectable street,
in the oil and Italian business. He was a clever
-. tradesman, sober and• industrious, and devotedly
attached to' his wife, whom he ardently desired to
keep'like'atady. Theis lie had not, yet hinted a wish
thit she'could serve in the shop. although this for
bearance involved the necessity of keeping a shop
man as well as a boy, and these Added to a servant
girl, rendered their establishment Very expensive
for young beginners.
To lresume whence I digresse4.i Mary sought
her husband, her work being linisbed—for though
she was fully resolved to have l'erown way,- she
felta little anxious to know how far he would re
sent her disobedieace.
Gut Edward, who was too amiable to harbor re
eenment, met her with :smiles of fond affection,
Which emote ei-en her selfish heart, and so corn
pletly disarmed her, that she inwardly resolved to
- repave the feathers from here bonnet and substi
tute a piece of unpretending plack ribbon .
The evening passed happily away, and although
'Miry did not effect the meditated change on her
bonnet that night, she said to herself that she
would only wear : it the next , day to visit her friend
Susan Cook, and then—
Alas, for our-wisest resolves, Susan Cook ad•
'••
mired the black plume excessively, and protested
i 1 would ruin the bonnet to alter it, and besides,
she said, it wouid be giving Burgess his - own
way,". which she persuaded 'Mary of all things to
avoid. For," she remarked. you rntist begin
as mean to go on: and if you stiffer him to
interfere - with - your dies's, there - will be no end tb
it." So it was M last a.reed let the bonnet re•
- main - as it was. '
• This trifling circiimstance was but the commerice
ment of a system of feinale, waywardness arid des
p`otilin. From the desire to have her oww way_
sometioies,she deteimined never togive up to her
husband'on-any occasion; and so artfully did the
petty despot disguise and veil her tyranny with the
'blandishments of pretended affection, that poor
Burgess, complefelyAuperl, could never find the
hear t •to contradict her tir gainsay her wishes.
i Thus, when sometime afterwards, he ventured
to ask , her to, attend in the shop, as the business
would not pay the expenses of a man and boy, she
refused-'with-the utmost baideur, wondered that he
could dream of such a thing, anditeclared that -Arch
a proposition plainly proved that he had no love
for 'her .
Tills last argument completely •silenced, if it

failed to Convince him, so he discharged• the-shop

wife, singing, playing cp the piano, or reading to,

We copy, with pleasure, an article on this sub
ject from the " AppalaChian," printed at Blairsville,
in this State: We agree With the editor of that
paper, that. consistency binds the democrats to
oppose, in theory at least, this trash,' (a paper cur=7
rency] as a substitute for Coin." And he wishes
to know why cannot the' Whigs lend their aid in
suppressing it .? ' The reason "Ay they do nol
strive to drive from circulation this worthless trash
mere Shadow of a representative of money
—is, *rinse to do this, would not he in accordance
with their.political From the organi
zation of the government to the present time, they
have been the advocates of an irredeemable paper
circulation, and opposed to the constitutional cur
rency of gold and silver. The reason for this, too,
is obvious.' Such a circulation is calculated to
enrich the banker, the stockjobber, the speculator;
and if others, less able to sustain loss—the poor
widow, and the orphan, and the Man who toile
through the long hourotof a summer clay for a
bare subsistence—those v.ha endure` the toss, are i
not of their party; they are not " the rich and well I
born ;" and little do they care for any others than
these. "Let the government take care of the rich,
ant` thq rich will take care of the poor," is a sen
timent which has been attributed to one of their
distinguished leaders; audit is certainly in accor 7
duce, with the practice of the Federal party. We
can make no calculations, whateVer, upon securing
the aid of any so-called Whig press in the country,'
(so far as' ur knowledge extends,) in eiliirts to over
come this evil. It seems to he the settled policy
Of their party to sustain the repracmatirt of value
—that which merely gives a show of worth—in
preference to that which is rail, and itself Valu
able ; and they therefore have opposed, and still
continue to oppose, all 'efforts to make teal money
I the only standard of value.
We are Tree to confess, however, that, if we.
must - have, 3 currency, iii itself worthless, we
greatly prefer something of the kind, more espe
cially objected to' in the article from the Ap
palachian ;. because there is a much s.urer guarrm-_
ee in italnarredempfiati; hi' the sense . of justice
Which ever characterises enlightened communities,
than in any sense ofliglit, prevailing in corpora
tions organized merely with a view to make mo•
• ney. And, although we recognise the policy, which
led fa the issue of these notes, as altogether on.
sound; yet, as it bad • been adopted, the peculiar
circumstances which afterwards surrounded our
!community, at least gave a color of necessity air
Itheir issue. Pittsburgh and her sister city, had
become involved in debt, beyond the power of 'her
immediale!resources to meet it; she was unable to
borrotv 'money, with which to provide for the ne-
I cessities of her creditors; the issue of notes bear
ing interest, and receivable for all dues to the city
was therefore resorted to, with the sanction of those
to whom sbe was principa4 indebted ; and these
notes circulate freely as money throughout our
community, and its our vicinity. — They are not, it
is true, as valuable? as the notes of some Red Dog,
lor White-Cat Bank would be, because, (although
I they drive gold and silver from among us,) there
is no Board of Directors sufficiently. interested in
them, to, make an exchange for the lied Dog for
home circulation, While our City Notes would be
sent hundreds of miles away; thus rendering it Mi.
practicable for the holder of a worn-out note to
. get something valuable for it.
We condemn the whole system of paper money
circulation, as at present authorised; but do not
think the dotes of our city, and those of our sister
Allegheny,cin be fairly classed with those of the
irresponsible Banks, so much in favor with-the
Whigs: •
