IS HE RICH ?--IS HE HANDSOME?
It is a humiliating fact that these are
the two leading questions with a vast ma
jority of thu ladies of the present day.—
It mutters not whether the adorable speci
men of nature's architecture have two
grains of common sense, ur five per.ny
weights of moral principle or not, all that
is required for him is to be beautiful ninny
or a millionaire fool. Now we have
no idea of fighting with a man because he
is fortunate enough to be good looking,
nor of quarrelling with him because for
tune has favored him with her blessings ;
but we do feel like pitying and ,condimn
eng these weak puerile ((quinines who
are ever asking—..ls he rich." or ~I s he
handsome ?"
We firmly believe that there is nothing
which has done so much to undermine the
marriage relations, to spread gloom and
desolatiod over families, as a devotion to
the sentiment expressed in these two•ques
lions. Far too many ladies of the prey•
ant day form their notions of love and
marriage from sickly novels, from theat
rical performances and from'extereal ap•
pearance alone. To their misinformed
fancy of marriage is the seed of inefTabl
joy only, and the future spreads itself as
a bright May day, and golden years dance
in bridal hours. Such an idea of married
life must necessarily be changed into a
wilderness by experience, and chagrin and
unhappiness will, of course, folhw. The
two unmatched spirits are but held in hate
ful contiguity by a legal bond, while to
heart they are divided by a torrent of
very prssionate aversion. Let but these
two questions govern her in the selection
of a partner Ibr life, and it is a miracle if
she does not reach the acme of earthly
wretchedness—it's a miracle if every
hope of happiness be not buried deep in
the years of despair.
Instead of indulging in these nonsensi
col questions and notions concerninff ev
ery silly idler who wears a fashionable
coat and has a well devemped moustache
let her but ask. I.ls he worthy of my love?'
Let reason, judgement and deliberation
weigh the matter well, and let the para
mount question always be, what is his
' moral worth ? Hun he been a dutiful son
and an afleetionate brother? if so, she
may Le sure he is worth having. 'lbis
last is a vita/ test, fora young man devoid
of filial atintiod and fraternal love is
too selfish to make a good congenial com
panion. But most kdies new-a-days are
not of the same material of which our
grandmothers were made. Had we more
Mary's like Washington's mother we
would have more Washingtons. It was
her hands which moulded his character to
syinetary and moral beauty ; it was her
prayers, her influence and her instructions
which repressed and restrained the growth
of evil qualities, and cultivated that divine
life in his soul which led him to take coun
sel of the God of battles—the Governor
ot nations. Did she not truly help to a
chieve the Revolution as if she had led
the armies to battle ? 'Prue, she did it
through her heroic eon, but she did it
no less—and this is just as God would
have every woman win her honors and re
wards, through her brother, husband or
child.
But think you il:at such a spirit as that
which Washington's mother possessed
would stoop to ask—"ls he rich—is he
handsome ?" Think you she would lama
sure his worth by the broadcloth which he
wore--sr the gold headed cane which he
supported? Think you such a woman
would marry a mart for his pretty faca or
profuse whiskers ? ' The beauty which
such a soul would crave, would be pure
mindedness, sincerity and spotless charac
ter. She would care very little for the
dandy apollos of the present age, with
their faultless forms in perfect coats, small
white hands in Paris gloves, and dimiuu
live feet in French boots. She would'
understani. that there was so much thud
expended in brushing up and beauti
fying the outworks, they must necessarily
have neglected to fbrsify the citadel with
ih. She would argue that as ass untrod
path may lead to a deserted house--so
smooth forehead may point to an . empty
brain.

is in truth the tender ivy twining itself
about the oak, but let the lightning rend
that oak and the frail ivy is trailing in the
dust. It is the duty of every woman to
acquire an inward principle of self sup
port, Then, if the rock of their earthly
strength be smitten, or the proud oak on
which they lean, with the fondness of a
first affection be blasted, they may never•
theless, stand erect in the mournful tri
umphant superiority, amid the hapless
wreck.
Some may, no doubt will, turn a very
derisive picture. They have friends and
circustances in their favor. But what if
lortune has a home in your lather's halls,
and the case and , elegance of fashionable
life at your command. Suppose, even
that you are already the bride of a schol

for her to know that he pmesses a 'nasty

hear such a wife upbraid her husband in
misfortune or adversity; never see her
sink and drag him down in the hour of
trouble, you will never hear his difficulties
greeted with tears and lamentations nor
does she ever charge her conduct with
folly. She feels her duty to cheer, not io
depress ; to encourage, not to alarm ; to
inspire with fresh spirit for renewed strug

several planks as falloWs :
1. Judge Douglas affirms the original
and essential inferiority of the negro.

of the Declaration of Independence, and
asserts that the right of freedom and qua

5. He affirms the absolute sovereignty
of the States in respect to their domestic
institutions, and denies the authority of the
