Randolph, at Morristown, N. od was attacked recently hy a’ young man from Brooklyn, who made a des. perate attempt to kill hor. The affair has cerated intense excitement among those who have heard the cirenm- stances, and inquiries regarding the cause of the young man's animosity have developed the following facts, which show that the course of fushion- able courtship doés not always run smooth: A few months ago the young lady —whose name is withheld for obvious reasons—was engaged to be. married to the would-be murderer, and reecive ed his visits at her father's house in Brooklyn, where the wedding was. to take play. The father of the lady is a man of great wealth, and of a high position in society, in the highest cir cles of which the expectant bridegroom also moved. e former was a gener- comes so identified with his, and his with her's, that they are essentially one. [f she is to “submit herself unto him)” he is to “love her as his own body” and to dwell with her according to knowledge, “giving honor unto her as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life.” If she is to be subject unto her own hus- band in everything, “even” as the Church is subject unto Christ,” he is to “love her even as Christ also loved the Church, and gave Himself for i.” The new Testament woman is not of those who call the proper headship of the husband, tyranny, and" the corres- ponding subjection, slavery, and seek emancipation and elevation in a per- sistent loud-mouthed cry for equality. She knows that sad for womanhood will be the day,—and if sad for wo- manhood, sad for manhood, too,~—when equality takes the place of unity in the chief relationship between man and woman, The New Testament woman is en- dowed with the grace of modesty. She is not among those who aspire to the pulpit, or those who have faced promis. cuous crowd from public platforms till they have lost the power of blushing, and are as much at home in bitter de- nunciation, harsh crimination, and rough and ready reparfee, as the par- “tizan politician and stamp orator. She has read that “it is a shame for women to speak in the church,” that is, in the public Christian assembly, and neither having the disposition, nor ‘assuming the richt to gainsay it, she concludes TERMS.

She'hasmiore than a suspicion that a woman wh fills the place of a true and lovingavife and mother, and is the worthy mistress of a Christian home, is quite as likely to lead a life fruitful in" blessed "and useful ministries, and to receive from her Lord the plaudit, “Well done, good and faithfu. servant,” as the female orator, or lawyer, or politician, or any thing else, who grows rough in voice, brazen in face, and course iin feeling and manner, through a struggle as hopeless as it is unnatural, for what she calls her right to stand side by side with man in the work and battle of life. There is so much of joy and content ment, high responsibility, and grand opportunity in the home sphere, as the New Testament woman apprehends it, that its comparative seclusion i& no hardship to her. The injunction that women be “discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own hus- bands’ is accepted, not as the mean, miserable utterance of a crusty bach- elor who had no just appreciation of the womanly nature, but as an utter. terance of divine wisdom. She knows too well, moreover, that home is the hiding place of her power for the pres ervation of all rights, and the attain. ment of all privileges and blessings in the gift of men, to look elsewhere for them. Accepting home, with its relation- ships, duties, privileges, and responsi- bilities, as the sphere of her activities and ministeries, ghe $pontancously and joyfully recognizes‘herindband as the head of the household. Neither “her reason nor her héart rebels against the declaration that “thé anangis. not “of the woman, but the woman of the man; neither was the man created for the woman, but the womam for the man.” She can even read the command, Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as unto the Lord; for the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the bead of the Church; therefore, as. the Church. is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything,” without getting out of patience with the Lord for putting,it. iv the Bible, or forgetting that it is given by inspir- ation of God, and crediting it to Pauls manner of life and conseqent ‘lack of sympathy with. womagheod. The New Testament woman is not to be found in the ranks of the “female suffrage” agitators, unless it be possi- bly by mistake now and then, through failure to apprehend the real signifi- cance of the movement. ! Itis & n wve- ment in the fab "0 eyes at Such of the law of nature and of God. As such, she stands aloof from it as. at: enmity with the best interests of both man and woman, content, and more than con- tent, to be represented in, mattess of Government'by husband” and fisher, lover, brother and son, and to exert through them an influence mightier than any that the ballot can ever give her.

She has learned from a source whose authority ‘she does ‘not question, that “aged women" ‘should “be in the be- havior as becometh godliness and teachers of good things,” and that “young women should ‘be sober” While, therefore she knows how to en- joy the best pleasures of life, she knows little ‘of ball rooms, and dances, and like places and amusements. = She has read “that women should adorn them- selves in modest apparel, with shame- facedness and sobriety, not with brai- ded hawr” (esp wially other peoples’) “or gold, or pearls, or costly array, but which beeomath women professing god- liness, with good works” The New Testament woman a faithful and loving friend of, and effi- cient worker for, Jesus. © She cannot forget the honor put upon her sex in that He was born of a virgin, that the ® 18 is likened unto a bride, that many of his most gracious and mightiest mir- acles were performed at the call and in behalf of womanhood, that it is only to a woman that He ever said while on earth, “Thy sins be for iven thee,” and only of a woman's act of devotion that He ever said, * Wheresoever this Gos pel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this that this woman hath done be told for a mem- orial of her.” Sle remembers the womanly love manifested toward Him in the hospi talities of the home at Bethany, and the Cross and Sepulchre, and longs to show a love as tender and true. She reads of the “Samaritans who believed on Him for the testimony of the wo- man,” and testifying herself of Christ as she has opportunity, she. often has the joy uf knowing that there! are be- living souls through her testimony.

She immediately broke the engage- ment in the face of all that scandal could say concerning the strange ter- mination of the wedding arrangements, and ordered her suitor. never to ap- pear before her again, But he did appear begging ‘her to marry him. Upon her repeated refusal and the scornful words which she is said to have used toward him, he attempted to stab her in her father's house. She es- caped, and being again threatened with death at his hands, she left the city se- cretly, telling only her parents her des- tination, and went to Morristown to visit the family of Governor Randolph. Her suitor, by some means, learned her whereabouts and presented himself at the door of the Governor's mansion a few days ago, demanding admsssion. Having seen him approaching, the la- dy gave orders to bar the doors, and he found his efforts to obtain entrance fruitless. Then he attempted to break the doors and finally, it is stated, fired at the lady through the window, He is said to have been seen since this oc- currence, lying in wait for her near the house, and a guard has been station- ed in the grounds to capture him if he makes another appearance, "y > p & A Bit of Romance, Burleigh, the New York correspon dentof the Boston Journal, tells this story: In one of the tenement houses of New York, in one of our lowest localities, a laboring man dwelt with his family.
