A FRIEND TO VIRTUE.
Os, THE TREATMENT OE THE FAIR
b£X.
IT has been remarked, that the pub
lic affairs of molt nations have been con. !
1 (iuded wiili more or less elegance, decile- !
(ritv, and luccefs, as they refpedtively
J rettrain or give freedom to their wo
men.
In Turkey, where the women are
flav.6, and the men mailers of fiaves,
there u neither learning, commerce, re
iKion, nor liberty, but what are main.
Caincd by a rigid obftrvance of such
, laws and rellraiuts, as hinder the growth
of any of those advantages to a perfec
jtion which would embelhlh human life.
in Spain and Italy, where the fair- lex
are vtihu bom public view, and inter
jiutted from ttie picafures of (octety and
I entire’fation, that beiiaviour has a fuita
He ell,cl upon their lifts : their love and
he:: honor are of a piece ; they tatte
one but in romance, and ailert the
oth r hi base and barbarous murders.
‘•’’here the lair sex are treated with
I gallantry and ooen civility, tliat treat
j rent i-as its vitible tfl.dt on all public
land private tranfacltona. I will take
! upon me to ‘ay, the French owed molt
-t their former greatness to it. A ccr
.am ho rty of heart and franknefs in
~u vaia ion where both sexes were in_
jicrmixed, was what ilifer,iibly insinuated
neir pi wer among foreigners, and made
t itm app.ar, when tiny were railed a
t'v.ve abi lute want, the happiell of all
he huniun rce in thenifelves if we,
by the lame rule, examine Holland be
tore the late revolution, they alio owed
th iir proiperity to the treatment of their j
w* men. As trade and commerce were
dfen.ial to their very being, their wo
men were their clerks and accomptants;
i'id the management of their cadi was in
the hands of tlicfe who could not fquao
der, embezzle, or misapply it, but to
their own dcllrudlion.
And here 1 cannot but observe, that,
among other branches of education com
monly bellowed upon the fair-lex, a com
petent knowledge of arithmetic is not
the least ufcful and valuable. Ladies j
II every sphere, will, upon various occa
lions, find the advantages thereof in thetr j
.economy, whether married or tingle ; j
-and thole who are deitined to be wives’
will, from the example of the Dutch >
houtew'ivea above mentioned, be better |
qualified thereby toallill thetr helpmates, i
aiul make more ufeful companions than !
they would otherwise prove.
Du. to return to my fubjeft. It is,

he carried on with the exelufion of halt
the tpecies : and what makes the chur
'i(h behaviour in this kind more appa
rcnily absurd, is, that the r. cell and
greatefl perl'ons of all ages have had the
■mated complaif'ancc this way, and
found their account from it in the fuc
oef- of their motl important affairs.
! It is the injuiliee of men to conceal
a . the good, and aggravate all the evil,
w hich arises to them from the inttrpo
litiou of the other fix. There is'no
great incident recorded in hulory.
wherein a woman has had any share, if
Ihe has aded an ill part, but what is re
lated with indigna’ion that (he was at ail
concerned ; and there is nothing praise
, worthy of woman, but what is told with
i 3,1 infinuatiou, that it is matter of wonder
I ‘hat it came from one of the lex. But
let morose men fay what they plcafe.

SINGULAR INVITATION FOR A FE
MALE COMPANION.
The Lady mviter is Miss Wilhelrntna
Henrietta Antonia, of Al/ona.
“ AS I have not yet found a man,”
fays Mils Antonia, whom I can love,
I have contracted a general defirc to
please, either by politeness, by follow
ing the fafhions, or by a spirit of malice,
which however never degenerates into j
genuine coquetillinefs. An invincible j
love for liberty, and a certain tatte for j
idleuefs and case, which renders every j
kind of authority infuppertabie to me,:
have prevented me, hitherto, from merry
ing.
“ I have not yet found any man so
superior as to command me, so amiable
jas to enfiave me, so void cf character as
to be my (lave,. or .0 difereet and so

THOUGHTS ON THE PLEASURES OF
DOMESTIC LIFE.
OF all the oratifitations human na ■
• °
ture can enjoy, and of all the delights 1:
is formed to impart, none is equal to
that which springs from a long trice, j
and mutual affeEticu. ‘I!.-_r happintf:
which arises from conjugal felicity i*
capable of withltanJing the attacks of
time, grows vigorous in age, and ani
mates the heart with pltaiure and de
light, even when tne vital fluid on
scarcely forces pafifi,;e though it.
No man ever profpersd in the world
without the consent and co-operation
of his tvife : let him be ever so frugal,
induitrious, or tuccefsul, ail avails no
thing if she is unfaithful to her trust, ol
protufeiy squanders m plcafure and dis
fipation those fume which toil and ap
plication gained ; bat if file unites in
mutual endeavours, or rewards his labout
with an endearing finite, with what fpi
rit and perfeverauce does he apply to
his vocation ; with what confidence vviil
he retort either to his merchandile o;
farm ; fly over land ;! if upon the fas ;
meet difficulty, and encounter danger.
it he knows he is not fpendtng
bis strength in vain hut that his labour
will be rewarded by the sweets of home !
How delightful is it to have a friend to
clteer, and a companion to soothe, the
solitary hours e, grief and pffin ! Soli
tude and difappeintment enter into the
| hiltory of every man’s life ; and he is
j but half provided tor his voyage, who
j finds but an a (To date for happy hours,
while for his months of (iO'.kri y; and dis- ,
tress no fyinpathiZm.T partner i3 prepa

Prudence and forefight can neither
ward off the itroke of uiftafe, not* rre—
vent the calamities which are ordained
by -Heaven. Affluence cannot purchase
rclcafe from pain, nor tendemrfs cool a
fever in the blood j yet there is an ear
open t.> the married man’s complaints ;
a heart ready to sympathize in ids fe.r- i
rows; an eye bedewed with tender]
drops or companion ; and a liie that it]
