Feb. 14,1871 It Women and Wine. Woman has never been associat ed with wine without disgrace and disaster. The toast and the bac ehanal that, with musical allitera tion, couple these two words, spring from the hot lips of sensuality and are burdened with shame. A man who can sing of wine and women in the same breath, is one whose presence is disgrace, and whose touch is pol lution. A man who can forget moth er and sister, or wife and daughter, and wantonly engage in a revel in which the name of woman is invoked to heighten the pleasures of the in toxicating cup, is, beyond controver sy and without mitigation, a beast. “Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?” Aye, cake3 and ale, if you will, but let it be cakes and ale. Let not the name by which we call the pure and precious ones at home be brought in to illuminate a degrading feast. Of the worst foes that woman has ever had to encounter, wine stands at the head. The appetite for strong drink in man has spoiled the lives ol more women—ruined more hopes for them, scattered more fortunes for them, brought to them more shame, sorrow, and hardship—than any other evil that lives. The coun try numbers tens of thousands—nay hundreds of thousands—of women who are widows to-day, and sit in hopeless weeds because their hus bands have been slain by strong drink. There are hundreds of thou sands of homes.scattered all over the land, in which women live lives of torture, through all the changes of suffering that lie between the ex tremes of fear and despair, because those whom they love, love wine bet ter than they do the women they have sworn to love. There are wo men by thousands who dread to hear at the door, the step that once thrilled them with pleasure, because that step has learned to reel under the influence of the seductive poison. There are women groaning with pain, while we write these words, from bruises and brutalities inflicted by husbands made mad by drink. There can be no exageration in any statement made in regard to this matter, because no human imagina tion can create anything worse than the truth, and no pen is capable ot portraying the truth. The sorrows and the borrows of a wife with a drunken husband, or a mother with a drunken son, are as near ihe re alization of hell as can be reached in this vvoild, at least. The shame, the indignation, the sorrow, the sense of disgrace for herself and her children, the poverty— and not unfrequently the beggary —the fear and the fact of violence, the lingering, life-long struggle and despair of countless women with drunken husbands, are enough to make all women curse wine, and en gage unitedly to oppose it every where as the worst enemy of their sex. Women, there are some things that you can do, and this is one: you can make drinking unpopular and disgraceful among the young. You can utterly discountenance all drinking in your own house, and you can hold in suspicion every young man who touches the cup. You know that no young man who drinks can safely be trusted with the hap piness of any woman and that he is as unfit as a man can be lor woman’s society. Have this understood :— that every joung man who drinks is socially proscribed. Bring up your children to regard drinking as not only dangerous, but disgraceful.— Place temptation in no man’s way. If men will make beasts of them selves, let them do it in other socie ty than yours. If your mercenary husbands treat their customers from private stores kept in their counting- rooms, shame them into decency by your regard for the honor of your home. Recognize the living, terri ble fact that wine has always been, and is to-day, the curse of your sex; that it steals the hearts of men away from you, that it dries up your pros perity, that it endangers your safe ly, that it can only bring you evil. If social custom compels you to present wine at your feasts, rebel against it, and make a social custom in the interests of virtue and purity. The matter is very much in your own bauds- The women of the country, in what is called polite so ciety, can do more to make the na tion temperate than all the legisla tors and tumultuous reformers that are struggling and blundering in tbeir efforts to this end. Honest and courageous people have very little to say about either their courage or their honesty. The sun has no need to boast of his brightness nor the moon of her efful gence. Death as a .Mirror. One of the most singular facts of our existence is the intensity and rapidity with which incidents in our past life are presented to U3 when death comes to us in a sudden or violent form, especially in cases of drowning. An accident occurred some time since on the Hudson riv er, by which a number of persons were precipitated and nearly drown ed. Among the number was the editor of a Philadelphia paper, who describes his situation while under water and in a diowning condition to have been pleasant, but peculiar, it seeming to him that every event in his past life crowded upon bis mind at once. He was sensible of what was occurring, and expected to drown ; but seemed only to re gret that such an interesting “item” as hrs sensations should be lost.— This is an exceedingly apt illustra tion of the maxim that “the ruling passion is strong in death.” A still more singular story is told of a person who held a promissory note of another’s which had run foi several years ; but, which on matu rity, he found he had put away sc carefully that he could not find it. He therefore called on the one who had given the note, stating that he had lost it, and proposed to give him a receipt as an offset to the note if it should ever be found. To his suprise, the person owing the mon ey not only declined to do this, but positively denied ever having given such a note, saying he owed him nothing. Without legal proof he was, of course, obliged not only to lose the money, but also endure the suspicion of trying to obtain money under false pretences. Several years passed away without the note being tound, when the person vho owned the note, while bathing in the Thames one day was seized with cramp, and rescued by companions just as he had become unconscious, and sunk tor the last time. The usual remedies were resorted Id, to resuscitate him ; and, though there were signs of life, there was no ap pearance of consciousness. He was taken home in a state ol complete exhaustion, and remained so lor some days. On the first return of sufficient strength to walk, he went to his book-case, reached down a book, opened it, and handed the long lost note to a friend who was present, stating to him, that while drowning, and sinking, as he sup posed never to rise again, there in stantly stood out before his mind, in a moment, seemingly as though a picture, every aet and event of his life, from the hour ot his chiidhpod to the hour of bis sinking in the wa ter ; and among his acts, the cir cumstance of his putting the note in a book, the name of the book, and the very spot it stood in the book case. Of course he recovered the money, with interest. What the Microscope Shows Us. Lewenboeck tells ol an insect seen with the microscope, of which twenty-seven millions would only equal a mite. Insects of various kinds may be seen in the cavities of a grain of sand. Mold is a toreslof beautiful trees, with the branches, leaves and fruit. Butterflies are fully feathered. Hairs are hollow lubes. The surface of our bodies is cov ered with scales like fish; a single grain of sand would cover a hun dred and fifty of these scales, and yet a scale covers five hundred pores. Through these narrow openings the sweat forces itself like water through a seive. The mites make one hundred steps a minute. Each drop of stagnate water con tains a world of animate beings, swimming with as much liberty as whales in the sea. Each leaf has a colony of insects grazing on it, like cows on the mea dow. Moral.—Have some care as to the air you breath, the food you eat an I the waleryou drink.—Home Sf Health. What inextricable confusion, re marks Horn, must the world forev er have been in but for the variety w’hich we find to obtain in faces, the voices and bandwriting of men ! No security of person, no certainly of possession, no justice between man and man, no distinction between good and bad, friemfs and foes, fath er and child, husband and wife, male and female. AH would have been exposed to malice, fraud, forgery, and lust. But now every man’s face can distinguish him in the light, his voice in the dark, and his hand writing can speak for him though absent, and be his witness toall gen erations. Did ibis happen by chance, or is it not a manifest as well as an admirable indication of a Divine superintendence ?—Noble thought* in Noble Language. 'The Widow.Myers’ Breach c? Fror,i33 S<t— The Extravagances of Courtship. From the Chicago Tribune. ■ The Widow Myers of Oaondago, N. Y., sued her neighbor, Harris, lor breach of promise. Harris Lad been a frequent visitor for about two years and a half at the house of the plantiff— a widow nearly 30 years of age. with three children. It seems to have been the opinion of the friends of the plantiff (aud no doubt she thought so herself) that Harris would marry her; hut he (Harris,) a few months ago, suddenly discovered that he loved auother woman better, and verified 'his belief a short time since by marryiug her. Heuce this action to recover damages. The follow ing tender epistle, sent by the loving swain, was read in Court ; My Dear Mrs. M.: Every time I think of you my heart Gods up and down like a churn-dasher. Sensations of unutterable joy caper over it like young goats on a stable roof, and thrill through it like Spaubdi needles through a pair of tow linen trowseis. As a gos ling swimmeth with delight through a mud puddle, so swim 1 in a sea of glory. Visions of ecstatic rapture thicker than the haiis of a blacking brush and brighter than the hues of a humming bird’s pinions, visit me in my slumbers, and borno on their invisible wings, your image stands before me, and I reach out to grasp it like a pointer snapping at a bottle-fly. When I first beheld your angelic perfections, 1 was bewildered, and my biaius whirled around like a bumble bee under a glass tumbler. My eyes stood open like cellar doors in a country town, and I lifted up my ears to catch the silvery accents ot your voice. My tongue refused to wag, and in silent adoration I drank in the sweet infection ol love as a thirsty man swai- loweth a tumbler of hot whiskey punch. Since the light of your lace fell upon iny life, I sometimes feel as if I could lift myself up by my boot-straps to the top ol the church steeple, and pull the bell rope foi singing school. Day and night you are in my thoughts. When Auro ra, blushiog like a bride, rises from her saffron colored couch ; when the jay bird pipes bis tuneful lay iu the apple tree by the spring-house ; when the chanticleer’s shrill clarion heralds the moru ; when the awakening pig prises from his bed and gruntetb, and goeth for his moruing refreshments ; when the drowsy beetle wheels to droning flight at sultry noou-tide ; and when the low ing herds come home at milking-time, I think of thee ; and, like a piece of gum clastic, my heart seems stretched clear across my bosom. Your hair is like the mane of my sorrel horse, pow dered with gold, and the brass pins skewered throug your waterfall fill mo with uubounded awe. Your forehead is smoother than the elbow of an old coat. Your eyes are glorious to behold. In their liquid depths I see lerrions of lit tle enpids bathing, like a cohort of ants in an old army cracker. When their fire hit me upon my manly breast it pen etrated my whole anatomy ps a load of bird shot through a rotten apple. Your nose is from a chunk of Parian marble, and your mouth is puckered with sweet ness. Nectar lingers on your lips, like honey on a bear’s paw, and myriads of unfledged kisses are there, ready to fly out and light somewhere, like blue birds out of their parents’ nests. Your laugh rings in my ears like the wind-harp's strain, or the bleat of a stray lamb on a bleak hillside. The dimples on your cheeks are like flowers in beds of roses, or hollows in cakes of homemade sugar. I am dying to fly to thy presence, and poor out the burning eloquence of my love as thrifty housewives pour out hot coffee. Away from you I am cs melancholy as a sick rat- Sometimes I can hear the June bugs of despondency buzzing iu my ears, and feel the cold lizards of despair crawling down my back. Uncouth fears, like a thousand minnows nibbling at my spirits, and my soul is pierced with doubts like an old cheese is bored with skippers. My love for you is stronger than the smell of (Joffey’s patent butter, or the kick of a young cow, and more unselfish than a kitten’s first caterwaul. As a song bird hankers for the light of the day, the cautious mouse ior the fresh ba- cou in the trap, as a mean pup hankers for new milk, so I long for thee. You are fairer than a speckled pullet, sweeter than a Yankee doughnut fried in sorghum molasses, brighter than a topknot plumage ou the head of a Mus covy duck. You are candy, kisses, rai sins, pound-cake, and sweetened toddy altogether. If these few remarks will enable you to see the inside of my soul, and tue to win your affections, I shall be as happy as a woodpecker on a cherry tree, or a stage horse in a green pasture. If you cannot reciprocate my thrilling passions, I will piue away like a poisoned bedbug, and tall away from a flourishing vine of life, an untimely branch; and in the coming years, when the shadows grow from the bills, and the philosophical frog sings his cheerful evening hymns, you, happy in another’s love, can come and drop a tear and catch a cold upou the last resting-place of Your’s affectionately. H. Verdict for plaintiff, and $500 damages. *aa* The Dawson Journal says, that the re cent disastrous fire in that city, was the work of an incendiary.
