FEMALE INTOXICATION,CONTINUED. In a former article we adverted to the fact that ,domkenness• has Immune sadly prevalentienotel alone among men, but even in the circle of the gentler sex. It is a sad, sad truth—for truth it eiidently is, according to reiiable testimony and observation. We promised to notice a few of the causes of this new and terrible feature of the monster vice, new, in, that it has reached across the threshold •of the higher circles of life ;—and terrible in that in lays its ruthless hand upon the dearest and holiest ties of life. 1. A prominent cause of this deplor able evil lies in the fact that ladies of respectable society are beginning to think that their pantries and cellars are not properly furnished without their casks and bottles of domestic wines. Then, fashionable society is fast return ing to the old custom of having wine dispensed at parties, weddings, suppers, &c. The decanter, the wine glasses, aid their accompaniments of the old fashion ed side board, are beginning to usurp a quiet dominion over many a household, where a few years ago, the inmates would have been shocked at the sight. Mothers thus often encourage, perhaps unwillingly, not only their sons, but also their daughters to sip the tempting cup. Young ladies entice young men with their bewitching smiles to drink their health and praise their beauty over the sparkling glass. The consequence is that not only do eons and brothers, hus bands and lovers learn to " indulge " fieely, many of whom bat for these syren enchaptressee would never taste it; bat the fair creatures themselves learn to " lovo it So dearly," that, with the nat ural warmth of their nature, they come, at last, to worship at the shrine of Bac chus with all the enthusiasm of a-wom an's devotion. 2. We cannot but think that the in discriminate, and often unwise prescrip tion of stimulants, to ladies who may be afflicted with slight infirmities and tem porary prostrations, is another fruitful source of Obi evil. We do not pretend to dictate. We know this is delicate ground. We smug prepared to decide against all stimulants as some have done. But simply suggest that ladies as well as Gents, may. "use, a ,tittte [too much] wine for their-stomach's sake, and for their often infirmities:" Verbum sat. 3. It has been suggested, and we doubt not with reason, that mach of the evil which we so earnestly deplore, may owe its origin to the scenes of unwonted excitement and anxious suspense through which manylemales both young and old, have been caused to pass, during ' the four long years of oar bloody nation al struggle. But we cannot enlarge. God - bless our mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, and "keep them from the evil." W.

A MOTHER'S LOVE. Happily, a mother's love is something upon which the great majority of man kind can look bacir—revereritly and fondly look back—for an objective rep resentntion of its main characteristics. Oh, the unselfishnees of it I How, months before it can be returned by scything beyond a momentary dance of light in her child's eyes, or a curvature of ill toothless month into a smile, or a crow, or fling of the limbs, expressiie of enjoyment, it poursltself out in seem ingly wasteful superabundance, intent upon giving rather than receiving, re joining to minister rather than to be ministered to, aecepting without a 'mur mur days of care sometimes flecked with pain, and nights of broken rest, and ren dering without stint unnumbered ser vices which to othnis would be eelf-tie nisi, but the irksomeness of 'which her ever gushing affection, without a mo .ment's Pause of Self consciousness, cleanses away, and readers invisible ! And then tip patience and long 13tiffer hug of it,=tlie faults it will co ' v'er over with its ever ready mantle, the negli gences it will drop tears over ,in secret and openly forgive, the affronts it will survive, the disappointments it will en dure and conceal, the ingenuity it will display in devising plausible excuses and even satisfying reasons for manifest wrongs, and the eagerness with which it will take upon itself, if possible, the consequences of transgression. There is nothing quite like it in this world of ours—nothing so morally beautiful ; self-fed, self-sustaitking love, which can traverse wide deserts, and, like , the camel, keep itself alive upon its little hoards of remembered,joy, when all oth- er love fails—the one human love that spends itself wholly opon its objects, and the roots of which,even ingratitude cannot entirely kill. Bat, when return ed, as in some measure it mostly will be to what , strength , and beauty of self-sac rifice will it not grow I—yet, under any circumetancen, chiefly a sorrow bearing love, of which the joys . are wes t the; duties are inflictions of pnin upon itself, the pride ,is nourished to be hestowed, elsewhere, andAhe fondest gain is the Sorest loss. *bout everylome:,mother thore is tkosanctity of martyrdom7-and when she is no more in the body, ,her children see her with-the ring of light around her head.

A ROMANTIC LOVER. A romantic story is told, of an English- man who sought the hand of a very charming lady with .whom ,he was pas sionately in love, but who constantly refused him. As he had , reason to be lieve she loved him, he entreated, to know the reason why she refused her consent to their union. The lady, sub• dried by his Constancy, tolffhith that her only motive for refusing him was, that having by. <accident lost a leg, it had been replaced by-a wooden.one, andshe feared that sooner , or later -this circum stance would chill his affection for her. This she declared to be her only motive. The lover protested that would never , make him change ` his love ; but she per sisted in refusing to marry hiM. Fired with love and determined that nothing should obstruct his design, ha Ainder the pretest, of, going a distant voyage, left the lady and hastened to. Paris, where he had one of his legs , amputated. When he had recovered, he returned to London, went to the lady, and told her that there *as no oiiitaiiit to their =Mb; forthit he was equally , mutilated with herself. The 'lady , con quered "'by sari a proof of affection, at last "consented to marry him. A Miransa's SoN.—Speaking of sleighing, we are reminded' of an v inci dent which occurred in the experience of a wild youninian, a elergyman's'eon, and the eons of clergymen have ever been"notedfor their wildness. He has sown his wild oats and. acquired consid erable distinction in the political world since , the incident we are about to ,re late which occurred in hie eighteenth year. - He had procured a fast horse and sleigh, but a rather slow harness, and invited a fair daresel to accompany him on a sleigh ride the ceuntry. The sleighing was fine, with the exception of some heavy drifts. Our hero drove furl °risky, and managed, when in the vicinity, of a farm house, to plunge into a big pile of inow, and by pullipg his - horse sharp around to capsize_: 'kid into 'the' heap, and break} iliettarriess into hitters., He picked up'llie ifiaguiests, and Mind he could proceed-no ?farther: • without borrewinganother Wanes s. •He applied to the proprietor of the adja cent farm house - for the loan ofa harness. " I have a spare liarness," said the honest and shrewd farmer—" I have a harness, but—" He eyed the youth simply and hesi tated, as if he doubted `the expedienCy , of trusting his property with a "flighty" young man. Our hero understood' the . look, and shouted, in his impatience : " Give me the harness, I tell you ; damn it, my ,father's a minister I" Rivas in Connecticut, where a minis ter's son could be denied nothing he might ask tie ; and the harness was soon transferred to our young friend's steed, and he went his way rejoicing. -A Mena . reporter WaB BrOIIIIILIUntiDg Oconee for a friend and,salled io see a family who were pre paring to vacate a cozy dw elling.

"Please, sir," said a snub nose girl, - fourteen years old, to a country dealer in dry goods, "to send mamma the pat terns of your calicoes, and put 'em cheap for she is going to get a new gown soon, and wants to see what'll wash." "-Who ie your mamma?" "lty mamma is Aunt Oily Dee, sir." " Your deter was here yesterday, and took patterns of all I have." , "Yes sir, I know that; but then she sewed them all up for patchwork, and would not give me any, but told me to go shopping myself." • Stuart, the celebrated portrait painter once met a lady in the street, in Boston' who saluted him with, "ab, Mr. Stuart, I have just seen.your miniature, and kissed it because it was so much like you.' "And did it kiss you in return?" "Why, no." "Then," said 'Stuart, "it was not like me." "Hear me, my friend. Yesterday I was called an ass by Mr. Jones, andj. in tend to prosecute him for it. What do • you think cliff" "If I were you I would, not do It." "Why?" "Because he might prove tkn charge, and that would com promise you." "Where are you going so fast Mr. Smith ?" demanded Mr. Jones. Home sir, home, don't detain me ; I have just bought toy wife a new bonnet, and I must deliver it before the fashion changes." "Do yon see that fellow lounging there doing nothing ?" said Owen to Jenkins the other day. "How does he live ? by his wits ?" "0, no ; he's a cannibal!" "yes, a cannibatl—he lives on ether peo ple." The following is one of Josh Billings best sayings : "A man running for office puts me in mind of a dog that's lost ; he smells of everybody he meets, and wags himself all, over." What is the earliest mention of a bank ing transaction? When Pharaoh recei ved a check (cheque) on the Bank of the Red Sea, which was crossed by Moses and Aaron. Thirteen objections were once given by a young lady for declining a match— the, firat twelve being the suitor's twelve children, and the thirteenth the suitor himaulf. A sentimental young man thus feel ingly expresses himself, " Even as na ture berievolently guards the rose with thorns,so doeslshe endow woman with pins." A mizileriiietcti says that the great est gifevonehsafed to a living man was .thet"granted to Adam, as he was blessed with a wife without having a mother-in. law. -A Timone editor complains that he has , recently seen banks shaving their papei. We once saw a bank director actually shaving himself. An Irish editor, in speaking of the mis eries of Ireland, says : "Her cup of mis ery has for ages been overflowing and is not yet full." :Lucy Stone, in a lecture in Bangor recently, maid : "We hear of hen-pecked husbands, but nothing at all about roos ter-Pecked wives. ' " If, sir," said a hospitable Irishman to his friend,' "yon ever come within a mile of my house, I hope you will stop there." “ I do not say that man will steal V' said a witness on trial, ” but if I was a chicken I'd roost high when he was around." Why are washerwomen often very foolish ? Because they set out tube to catch soft water when it is raining hard. In the beginning woman consisted of a single rib. Now she's all.ribs from her belt to the rim of her petticqats. Tobacco is being talked much about ; in fact, it is in almost everybody's Mouth.
