THE INFLUEN E or FEMALES QN

No one can qui-stion" theimportnncelof
the female character on society. We tire
gtmong those' firhh believe that it is ‘far
greater than men n general seem willing to
admit. We do mit refer to thoso‘false‘pic

females that are evierywhero found thrnugh

lamity so dark anti deep. that the sunlight
of their smiles will not “make the most of

awaken an nnswei-ing gleam. We cannot.
indeed. but bypeculiarly struck with the
natural and/appropriate. as well as charita

of our national thalamity, ministering to
the ea'mfort of those who hays sacrificed
the/éomfort and luxuries of home, and are
Po/w ’upon the Sented field. In what a
sublime situation she is placed, and invests
herself with peculiar charms. Besides the
chasteness and simplicity which character
ize the sex, there is a detail about them
which is not only graphically true, but
practically instructive. It is not merely
by their acts of charity that we are made
acquainted with the female worthies of the
present day. We converse with them in
their homes, we see them in the discharge
of family and social functions, and in gene
ral we find them the embodiment of all
