misceixak y. From the Boston Essayist. WOMAN. A crabbed acquaintance of oura has just re- pearpd lo uh “ frailify, tby name is womnn.” We were frying 10 got him lo call with us on a very beautiful Indy of our acquaintance. He i* a scholar, h wi.. and n gentleman, and vot dares to repeat that villanoux Iran in onr hearing. Alas, for him—wn fear he is past redemption. We cnnnoi ennreivo why the fair sox have been so often villi And. We de clare it unjust—and we enlist ourselves in tlio.r defence; notwithstanding that Virgil has said. “ woman, nlwuys various and ehangna- hlo”—and Shakespeare, “ fradity, thy name is is woman.” Womnn is not more variable than man. Her rnnsloiiey has atood the test of fire, nnd blood, and torments, in thousands of instances —and shall she be called fickle ? We vcrilv belli ve ltint woman’s friendship, is infinitely more disinterested, infi'itclv more pure than man’s. She will follow her lover through weal and wo—through evil report—snd good report—through poverty, through sorrow and misery, and death. She will love him, in his sin, and his glory, nnd his «bama nnd his de gradation ; ami she will hind him the eloscr to her henri, as lie falls the lower. Will man do so? No—let bill the breath of evil report dim the brightness of the pore name of lhal being wl.om ho loves, lo! her sin hut onee— and lie will forsake her for ever. Will ho love lie*r under abuse and ill treatment 1 But suppose that sho roquets and trifles with the affections of the worthy 1 has sho not been taugbt by example 1 How many hearts have broken and bled to death, when forsaken by man 1 How many women have givon their whole affections uway, and poured out their wholu heart upon u Invor, and then been for saken 1 How often hove attentions been of fered lo gratify vanity, nnd to please pride? Ho>v often !—alas !—who slmll unswer the qm -tion ? llui women nro accused, bv sensible men, of being vapid—nonsensical—no inlkcrs, or nl feusf inlkcrs of nothing. Inject il winy be •o—hut the cause ? Who are those who af feci Ihe society of wuinm—of the young nnd benutiful among us? Wliul kind of beings are they? Of wliat can they talk—what do they knowl Nothing—they can utter only nonsense and nolhmgs ; and on what else can a lady tulk with them? The character, con versation, and intelligence of n woman, married particularly, depends on the prison with whom she is conversant. She must talk as they <ulk, nr not m all. An Kiiglishninn has euul, that an Knglishninn of Ion is the least intelligent animal on earth ; and it linlds good hern loo. Conversation turns upon wliul t scuiidul, dress, good.-, voyages, and nothings; and yit you hlnmo the woman Nonsense ; let n mutt who is in elligent con verse with Indies, mid wo stake our word for it, they will prefer his company lo that of the vapid and rommnn-plnre. But they talk scandal! Not half so much as men ; neither is it so hurtful; nnd if they do, it is only because men hku it. Give them men of sense for their associates, and they will iiocoine worthi of them. But woo have tlios, been, who have professed ihemxclve the Iricndi of woniun ; who have those been, who have engaged hi tins cowardly warfare ol Cleanness and shallownes3 ! Who blit the “Monks?” men who might have thought up on ihc table of the lux mid sour grapes—Pope and hwilt—who ulier Hilling with, and gain ing the affections of two accomplished ladies, not only were loo cowardly to marry them, bul menu and pitiful enough to publish litiels upon ihe whole sox. Swift—a gross, uiininti- nerly scoundiel, whose talents at the present time, would uol save hint from a kicking tor his impudence, a man who could not enjoy the pure pleasure of the socioty of women, any nmre Ilian could s seal—and Pope, a crooked litlln nolo of interrogation, awurn, as such men always arc, of their own personul delect —ure these good authority 1 For ourselves, wo ho.d that the society of women is the only wuy to polish llio mind and manners ol man. Our eternal craving lor money, or worshipping of business, our cnlcu- Taiing, grasping nature—what would it ull make us, wero it nut for woman 1 Our atten tion 10 women is the only thing thut wo- Id rescue the people ol these eastern stales, us a people, from the charge of vandalism. We have some wrapped up in pride and self-audirieney, who pretend tu despiso the fair sex—who look upon them not ns what they are, the angels of the world, but as some thing inferior in nature to themselves- I linve gem such people—ay, and 1 have seen them go into company at llir first invitation—vea, mark me—and be in love with the first'girl that showed them any attention, so much were they flarered by it. For ourselves, wo would not lose tho com pany of the fair aex for the world. We find that it exalts our nature, and raises our spir it*. to see and converse with ono or two beau tiful girls of our acquaintance; lo atudv deep ly «i their eyes, to drink tho music of their voice. Our friend went and passed tho evening wiih us; and he is over head and ears in lovo. AVe thought so. jollv fellow—was no doubt filled with good old Madeira er Burgundy, perhaps Cogniae indeed he looks very much like (.ogniae; a real bully, with n lillle touch of the braggado cio; a fist would hardly overset him, and an overset would never break him. Now tarn to that tall, lean, lank-looking, lung-necked chap, Monsieur ( laret. IVeak as the liquid he holds, a north wind must nev er breathe upon him; touch him gently or you will shiver him to atoms. He is one of vour slender-built gentlemen, somewhat quakish, with falling shoulders and a very high crowned hnl; one that always elands asido when a mightier one comes, as if an encounter might demolish him; a peaceable sort of personage, lhal never speaks much abovo a whisper. No match tit all fur old Madeira. Some are staid, soher-looking bottles ; the necks are put straight on their bodies, and the corks are put straight in the necks; very cor rect in their deportment, no doubt; never hnvo been, and never menn to he in a frolic. Their sides nro perfectly corresponding, like a re- spnctnhly made coal, and their corks nro new, like a sleek well brushed hat. Tliero is some thing of deep thought about such nil one— something respectable, ns if it would not be well tn crack a joke over them. Then come your little, merry, facetious ar ticles—Hn indent here, a protuberance there, ns if fun had twisted them nil out of shape ; hollies lliai it makes one laugh to look nt, and It a: *ook as if limy were Inughinglhemselvos. Tlu re is. in fact, a deal of character in a black lintilo. They never talk, hut then they look wisp nnd knowing, and sometimes cause talking and laughing in others. Oh yes ! there is companionship in a black hntlle, even after it is empty,— Winchester Republican. A Chapter on Bottles.—See thero—one may read character on that shelf! And what is there ?
