Man as Husbands- A Glimpse of our Domestic Life. Without reference to St. Paul, who commanded wives to obey their husbands, or lo the ancient marriage ceremony of the Egyptians which demanded a promise of obedience from the husband to the wife, in stead of the reverse, the present every-dav relations of men lo women it) the marital state ate of so great importance that nothing can be greater, and yet do not receive from men a lithe of the thought anti hon est attention the subject demands. There is a common-sense justice that ought to govern the relations of human beings, that has both sub stance and essence in the “Golden Rule,” and is as high above all civil and legal enactments as heaven is above earth. That this beautiful and perfect law of relation as cloth ed in words by Coulucius, and af terward revised and incorporated into the Christian religion by Christ, does not rule in the mairiage state, is without doubt due to the unequal estimation held by the parties in re gard to each other. That husbands, as a rule, do their wives intentional injustice, 1 do not lor a moment believe, but that wives suffer immeasurably from in justice born of heediessness, of thoughtlessness, and a lack ol heart fulness, I know to be only 100 true, if the knowledge that comes from unprejudiced observation and the unsought and voluntary confidences of many a wife are to he relied up on. One is not to infer from this that married women are given lo turning their hearts out like a pocket and unfolding their wedded rela tions—the most sacred of all—to the gaze and criticism of even very dear friends. The reverse of this is the rule. But there are scores of con fidences which are “escapes” rather than positive confessions, that are foiever revealing to us a great deal more of dissatisfaction than we want to know about. It is a wifely “weakness” to endeavor to conceal the husband’s faults; to manufacture excuses for his shortcomings; and try and cheat herself into believing she is all in all to him, when every indication points to the reverse; in Short, she fancies, somehow, that she was born lo be his moral and spiritual waterproof. The recotds are full of women clinging to hus bands who are worse than beasis, while many a widow wears the mournfullest of black, and observes with dreadful solemnity the anniver sary day of the death of a husband who was a brute, and whose life seemed specially devoted lo making her miserable. These things sim ply illustrate the fool a woman will make of herself when governed by idiotic but customary notions of duty. That women are not alone in see ing and feeling the “fatal lack” of husbands, 1 bring in proof this ex tract from a gentleman’s letter to me hoping the violation of the confidence may find pardon in the end to be subserved: “I find it hard to believe that intelligent, honorable men do so invariably look down upon their wives and hold them in ‘subjection.’ Yet I can not be in a family circle half an hour without, in most cases, seeing evidence of it in snubs, or worse yel, in that kind of complais ance which is a fiction of the first water. It seems to me that a man of decent pride and self-respect would loathe the idea ol marrying an ‘inferior.’ Even (he human fondness for using or abusing power would be no temptation to give oneself ullerly to a person whom it was possible to look down upon. I suppose that men do look up, or think they do, in courtship, but have to little knowl edge either of their sweethearts or themselves, that after marriage they make disappointment an excuse for selfishness.” In that final word “selfishness” he struck a key-note. That women were born entirely for the use ot men; that the success or value of their existence is proportioned en tirely to their help and value to men, seems to be an ineradicable idea among husbands. Bui that men owe just as much to women; that the husband’s relation to the wife is a compensatory and mutual one, and in bo respect a one-sided affair, is a truth that seems to be ever falling by the wayside, as it so seldom if ever finds lodgment in the hearts of men. Not long since a prominent New York journal made record ofa wife’s servitude in a foreign land; enlarged upon her care tor her husband; do ted upon her attention to him when he would come home drunk; com mended her infinite care in screening him from well-merited justice by suffering in his stead; detailed at length incidents illustrating her self denyir.g qualities, her meekness un der insult, her sweetness under biu tal treatment, and above all her mod esty —tier “true, noble, womanly modesty” which would never admit of her being the recipient ol anything pleasant, when iL was possible for her husband to receive it in her stead. This sanctimonious journal published the account with the add ed regrets that those faithful, unsel fish wives were now only a memory of the past, and that the women ot the present day no longer practiced those sell-denying virtues thal so a dorned the sex, but were constantly striving to augment their own happi ness and importance ! How strange ad awful! We all know how sweet and good it is to deny ourselves for the sake of those we love; lo suffer in lheir siead; to minister to their happiness; to shield their faults. Then we also knowhow bitter, how hard, how cruel it is, to do all this and receive for compensation neither smile of appre cialion, nor a word of approval; only a cold, careless exterior, and a man ner demanding and expecting all these things from the right of superi ority! Many husbands seem to think—if they once stop to think at all—that what to them would undoubiedly be distasteful and unjust will not be re garded by their wives as such, be cause they are women. This is a fa tal mistake. What hurts a man hurls a woman all the same, only more. The deprivation of enjoyments no matter of what kind or degree, is as keenly felt by women as by men. A wife needs loving demonstration, honest regard, and thorough re spect from her husband just a3 much as he needs thesame from her; and more even, for her range of employ ment is more limited. What is more, no wife can thrive in heart, in mind, and in body without it. If a man wants the best wife in the world lie must be to her the best husband. And in order to fie to her the best husband, he must place himself in her place—imagine the exchange of personality a dozen times a day it need be-so be may know how to act. How few husbands can look back over this single, solitary day per haps, and alter diligent introspection truthfully say, “I have been to my wife this day just what I would have her be lo me, if I were she instead.” You may try to soothe your con science and justify mailers by say ing, “Oh, well! women haven’t been used to these things, and they don’t expect them.” Oh, but, sir, they do expect them. They have a born right to, and need of them equal with yourself. Every girl born into this world comes into it with a soul and heart as full of fresh i.eed and love and right as did Eve. She does not inherit a preparation for injustice be cause her foremolhers may happen lo have had it for six or sixty thousand years. If girls didn’t have men for their fa thers, it is possible they might be born with naluial propensities for “subjection.” But now a man in expecting submission and obedience from his wife is oftimes made aware of the fact that he is simply walking rough-shod over the natural-born rights of his high bred old father-in law, manifested in a temple more refined and delicate and sensitive. What then ? But aside from the “odious” help of sharing toil, the cares of the household and children, there is the help of development. Many wo men haye less education from books and the world than have their hus bands ; and is it not the duly of the latter to aid their wives in making up the deficiency ? Asa mere mat ter of selfishness, men should do it. The compensation would more than cancel the task, it it could be class ed among tasks. Someone has said that a “family man” has no rigtit to be off evenings ; neither has he a right to demand a style of housekeeping which will make it necessary for the wife to do nothing but attend to purely domes tic affairs, which would be a great “affliction” to men who regard the gratification of their especial stom achs of more moment than the thri vmg graces of a wife’s mind and heart. As domestic partnership is now mostly conducted, the man starts ahead of the woman, or if even with her he soon gets ahead and keeps ahead. Burdens come upon her which he can not or will not share, often upon the ‘I-am-bolier than-ihou" principle. Business swal low3 him up, or keeps hirn socially so far removed from his wire that she almost forgets she has a husband. She is either thrown back upon her self for companionship, or accepts it from outside sources, which are not always safe or best. A great deal of nonsense has been talked and written about the happi ness of the home depending upon the wife. Just as much depends I.non the man, and indeed mom when lie assumes or demands in super-balance o! power. Home is where women thrive or perish ; and that it be a garden of love and sun shine, or a desert of ill-winds, and barieri of love and sympathy, de pends upon the husband more than he rnav at first imagine. He stamps domestic life with its vital, charac teristic principle. To suppose that the reflection or utilization of this principle will be more beautiful and worthy than the prototype is to ex pect figs to grow on thistles. If all marriage bonds were irrerib-1 ed with the “Golden Rule” for an inflexible law, would there not be harmony where now is discord ? Would not at least civil courtesy a bound among married people as well as among mere friends? Do husbands ever consider how supremely, disgustingly hateful it is to a wife to be treated, held, ami considered like a child; to lie en trusted with no dignified trust; to have money doled out in certain a rnounts; to be heid accountable for every expenditure made ; to be al ways obliged to deler lo the bus band’s sense of propriety and expe diency; to regard her just rights as a husband’s kind and loving indul genceto be consulted simply for the sake if appearance; lo be the recipient of smiles and courtesies before strangers, and just the reverse when alone ; to feel that she is sup ported by her husband, like a fine carriage hor.-e ; lo carry the baby while he trots on ahead ; to mend his stockings while he smokes in her face and reads to himself; to slay ai home while he goes abioad; tube “my dear” and “my loved” only when he wants something he never deserves; to never know the state of their mutual finances; if a working woman to cary wood and water, while he leans by the hour over a gate post talking politics ; to be up night after night with sick children, while he sleeps as sound as a brick; to be ignored when the homestead is sold ; to be hungry for sympathetic companionship; for tender, loving caresses as of the courtship days ; for hearty expressed appreciation, but never getting these; to hear a hundred limes a year, “My wife, my darling, God bless you!” and never hearing it? Ah, well! the catalogue is too long. The remainder stands in long columns in your own soul, ii you will only open it and look in. Think what li'e would be to jrou without the woman you love best— without her who gave you a foretaste of heaven—without her whose all sacrificing love is the highest expo nent of Divine Love—without your wife—the mother of your children, whose precious file has been once and again and again placed in the very jaws of death, all for love ol you, and then ask yourself if you love this loving, self-sacrificing soul even as you love yourself. Mary E. A. Wager. The following story is related by Mr. Jefferson concerning the first Continental Congress : “Delegate Harrison, of Virginia, desiring to stimulate,’ presented himself arid a friend at a certain place where sup plies were furnished Congress, and ordered two glasses of brandy aud water. The man in charge replied that liquors were not included in the supplies furnished Congress. ‘Why,’ said Harrison, ‘what is it, then, that I see New England members come here and drink?’ ‘Molasses and wa ter, which they have charged as sta tionery,’ was the reply. ‘Then give me the brandy and water,’ quoth Harrison, ‘and charge it as fuel.’ ” A gentleman in Alabama, in ex erting liimselfone day fell a sudden pain and fearing his internal ma chinery had been thrown out of gear, sent for a negro of his plantation, who made some pretentions to med ical skill, to prescribe for him. The negro, having investigated the cause, prepared and administered a dose, lo his patient with the utmost confi dence of a speedy cure. No relief being experienced, however, the gen tleman sent for a physician, who, on arriving, inquired of the negro what medicine he had given his master. Bob promptly responded— “ Rosin and alum, sir.” “What did you give them for?’’ continued the doctor. “Why,” replied Boh, “de alum to draw the parts togedder, and the rosin to sodder ’urn.” The paiient eventually recovered. Every hour that a child lives a quiet, tranquil, joyous life, of sueh sort as kittens live on hearths, squir rels in sunshiue, is just so much in vestment in strength and steadiness, and growth ol the nervous system. Every hour that a child lives” a life of excited brain-working, either in a school-room or in a ball-room, is just so much taken away from the re served force which enables nerves lo triumph through the sorrows, through the labors, through the dis «nse:i nt laler lile No. 23. The bright spots ol a man’s life cro few enough without blotting any out; and since, for a moment of mirth, we have an* hour ol sadness, ii|were a sorry policy to diminish the tew rays that illume our cheq uered existence. Life is an April day—sunshine and showers. The heart, like the earth, would cease to yield good fruit, were it not some times watered with the tears of sen sibility; and the fruit would be worthless but for the sunshine of smiles.— Age. An Outback, and Summary Punish ment of THE Perpetrator. —On last Friday as a party of school giria were returning from school to their homes near Madison, Georgia, thoy were at tacked by a negro who seized one of their number, a girl of about sixteen, daughter of a Methodist miuister near that place, and dragged her into the ad joining woods. The others fled scream ing to their homes, a mile distaut, and informed their parents of the affair. A party of men immediately made all haste to lue scene of tbo outrage, where they found the poor girl in convulsions the Hen dish perpetrator having made his es cape. The girl was taken up and car ried to her home, where she has been lying at the point of death ever since. Saturday the negro who had been rec ognized by the other girls, boldly walk ed into Madison, and was at cnca arrest ed and taken before a magistrate by whom ha was committed to jail for tri al befor the Sup.r.or Court. Saturday night a party of disguised men proceeded to the jail, but were un atde to eff 'ct an entrance, the Sheriff who had the key having hid himself. Monday night another band, about fitly iu number, surrounded the Sheriff, took tho key from him, entered the jail, and riddled the negro who had committed the outrage with pistol balls. They then departed quietly. The Sheriff, who went to the jail after they had left, found the negro lying iu a corner of bis cell, dead. Bis heart was perforated by several balls. There was much excitement atnoue the negroes of the town for awhile, but we understand that it has all subsided. While we must coudemii all viola tions ol the law and order by men who undertake to punish criminals without any appeal to the- courts, yet some ex cuse can be made for the act when we consider tho heinousness of the offense. The pardoning power has been so abused by the Chief Executive officer of the State that men have been tempted to take the law into their own bands in regard to criminals. We confidently look forward to the time when this state of things will cease forever, and the power and majesty of the law reign su preme- Coniiitutionali*/. lee nearly half an inch thick formed in the open air in Bangor, Me., on Wed nesday night, the 16th ultimo.
