Scorn the Hake. ’ Ladies, scorn the Rake. Let him not sit in your presence. Never condesenJ lo speak to the man who degrades your sex. Mark the looks words, manners, and private character of h itn who addresses you. Let not his tal ents his reputation, his family and his wealth, be what they may, give him any influence over you.” YY e copy the above for the good sense it contains, and the correct principles which it inculcates. \\ oulti it were in our power to impress the minds of our sex with a sufficient dread, if we may so express it. of the man who hits l fie audacity to indulge in dissipation, and then seek the society of the young artless and innocent.. VY e have often wondered how lie dared to come where we were, and with nn tmblushi ig effrontery expect us to treat I i.n with civility. Civility! Oh ladies! that you could, that you would muster enough .decision to spurn the heartless wretch who revels in the ruin of your sex. Say! would you not feel insulted it’ the victim—who. but lor him, might have been welcome—were to intrude herself in to your presence ? And is ii right is if. in accord tnce with the first principles of justice to smile on the destroyer, and if not pardon, at least tolerate his guilt ? As well might you fly from th** poor sufferer quivering with the pangs of’ hydrophobia and press to your bosom the maddened animal by whose bite the sufferer is dying. Not that vve wish | to justify or excuse ior a moment the frailty among out* own sex. They well know the fearful penalty the ruin the utter degradation that would follow their guilt; and not. on their guilt only, but a mere suspicion of such a thing. No matter under what circumstan ces incurred, no matter 1 ovv when or where, the finger of scorn is still pointed at them and whatever might have been their position, they nre fallen, fallen, and lorever. But if this doom is a just one. can you recon cile it to your consciences to he on intimate terms with the being who hits degraded one of you ; who found tier perhaps as innocent as Purity herself maturing beneath the warm smiles ol a happy home, and took her Irorn t ihe blighted and dying beneath the keen blasts of the world’s unkindness ? whom perhaps a single error has brought so low and lean Ibrid ly, confidently on him, the name of whose sign is legion! We tire aware that the usual excuse is “we do not know of these things ; how are we to find them out?” Ami ales! in too many eases there is much truth in this. But young ! ladies, let me ask il when you discover them. ; when a kind parent or a watchful brother warns you ot’ ti le viper in your path, do you turn with a shudder and fly from it ? Or do you not. in your hearts try to find excuses, and sometimes call up that most untrue and ruinous of old adages, *a reformed rake makes the best husband.” The l. how is this evil lo be rem edied ? Young ladies, it rests with you —and until you gain moral courage enough to brave the ridicule of the world and treat the se ducer at least as you would the seduced frown upon his advances and consider them insults, j look upon Ins very presence as contamination. , his acquaintance a degradatio i—then, and ; nor (ill tnen, will the evil be abolished. Let ! the rake know that he has no refuge with us j —that scorn and contempt wil l he Ins only I welcome, and then we may hope for better things.— Western Continent. The Sufferings of Women. YYhilst the friends of humanity have been engaged in assisting the reformed drunkard i in nis efforts tor self-emancipation and self-ele j vat ion have they nut been too negligent as it j regtrtk Lis suttering wile and abused chil- l j dreu ? Have we visited them with fair char ities and sympathies ?

A Few Facts about Vejetabtes: Their Origin and Use. Tiie following is a complete list of the pa ternity, if we may so call it of the different tribes and varieties of the Vegetable King dom —at least that portion of it commonly known as edible,’ and which form* the deli cious variety of our and lily repasts. This ac count. lor most of which we are i debted to Buisi’s Family Gardener—an excellent work that has already passed through several edi tion—will vve think.-be found at once inter est i ig and instructive. The arrangement is alphabetical. Asparagus. —This universal vegetable is ; supposed to be a native ot’ Great Britain ; where it is found on banks of sandy soil con- J tiguous to tiie sea growing luxuiiently under ’ the salt breezes. Cultivators have found that salt brine, or a thin covering of snlt thrown over the beds in the Fall, before they have i their final dressing, proves ve>y beneficial to its growth. Although it is not considered a very nutritious vegetable, yet it occupies a considerable proportion of every garden, and is extensively cultivated for m irket some ! growers having eight or ton acn s under cul , ture at once. No doubt is entertained by ex j perienced gardeners that, in a lew years it will : be i lereased tenfold. | The Artichoke is a native ol South Arner • ica and has been cultivated lor about two ! hundred years. Oh its first, introduction—we I are speaking of the Jerusalem—like many oth -1 er new vegetables, it was extravagantly ex j tolled, li was b iked ii pics with dates, gin j ger. raisins. Ac. ; and of course amalgamated with such good things that it could not taste indifferently. YVhen boiled in the simple way of Potatoes however they will not form a very palatable dish. I’he modern way of serving them up is to boil them till they become tender, when, ;ilter being peeled and slewed with but t TANARUS, Ac. the Jerusalems are considered pleas ant and taste similar to the true Artichoke.— l'hey are not so good as Potatoes but as a crop lor feeding hogs or cattle they are more productive. The Beet is a native of the sea-coast of the ; South of Europe. It takes its name from the shape of us seed-vessel which, when it swells with the seed has tiie lorni of the letter Beta ol the Greek Alphabet. There are several varieties in cultivation for culinary purposes o’ iv 4 licit tiie most essential so. ts are the Long Bio >d and tiie Turnip Rooted. The last is the i earliest variety and lak s it name from the form of the root, its qu ility bein_r decided by tiie richness of’ color and closeness of the grain. — There are several other sorts which come more under the notice of the agriculturist, sucii ns Sugar Beet Mangel-Wurzel. Ac. Broccoli ts supposed to have com.- originally from the Island ot’Ciylou and wits cultivated nearly two centuries ago—so that it and the Artichoke are follow-patriarchs of this honor ed family. It is wall known as a variety ot Cabbage closely related to the Cauliflower ti.o tglt not so delicate i.i flavor as that vege table. In mild climates it is extensively used from November to March, the various early ;i id late sorts coming t > maturity in the verv middle of - Winter, in this latitude, the cul ture is mainly confined to the Early Wiiite and the Early Purple Cape. In their growth habit and eatable parts, they resemble Cauli- ! tlower. all of them forming roundish heads in tlie center of their leaves, composed of com-, pact collections of buds or advancing shoots. | Cabbage itself is one of the most ancient ‘ and esteem \1 of vegetables, and as an escu- ! lent it stands i:i the highest estimation. Like > all other cultivated plants the Cabbage has undergone so many change- and assumed so rainy varieties that it has become rather dis- ! h•'lilt to give any description that will apply I Ito the waole. Without exaggeration, (says I one of our best gardeners ) many of the sons \ are as far superior to the others in flavor as i cream is to sour milk—yet we continue to 1 grow year after year, the same varieties; I (soma of which are so rank and srrong that they i are o ily fit lor the cattle-yard or the animals ) | I to the neglect of others not only tender and j j delicious to the tasie, but truly agreeable to ’ the olfactory organs.

The Carhoon is somewhat like the Arti | choke but rises to a greater bight, and. with it, may be classed as one of the fanciful vege j tables, grown exclusively for the name, or to I please tlie fancy ul so.n • professed epicure.— j At least it has but little nutriment ; the ten- J der stalks after being blanched, are either slewed or put in Soups and Salads during Autumn and Winter. The Carrot, says an eminent physician. *• is a most wholesome culinary root ; it strengthens and nourishes the body and is very beneficial tor consumptive persons.” Carrots ire generally served boiled with meats yet they m ike an excellent ingredient in soups, and form, we are told a very ngreeable pud ding. As an agricultural root they are not surpassed lor feeding cattle ; horse- will do more work and look better on them than any other fe.'d. This vegetable is supposed to have been in troduced into Europe from the Island of Crete, since which it has greatly improved.

Cauliflower. —This very delicate vegeta ! ble was first introduced into England from the island of Cypress, about a century ami a halt ;igo . Since then it has been greatly improv j ed by the skill of the gardener. Celery is a native of Britain, found in j marshy ground, ditches, and such situations. 1 In its wild state it has a rank coarse taste— , the effect ofeuftivatio t is remarkably display ed in producing the sweet, crisp, mild stalk of Celery generally very palatable, and all from i a wild, detestable, and apparently wordless weed. This vegetable is yearly gaining re pute and is cultivated to a great extent, though yet it is far from perfection. The leaf ! stalks when blanched used raw form the com mon salad ; they are also stewed and used for soup-seasoning. An agreeable conserve ! can also be made from the stalks when per i fectly blanched. There are several kinds in cultivation, but two kituls. the white and red Salad generally usurp the place of the others. ! There is a Variety known as the Lion's Paw Celery, pine white, which, in the opinion of experienced gardeners is inferior to the White Salad.

In breathing air we use the oxygen, and j send it out carbonic acid gis which is heav ier titan the atmosphere, and sinks, passing into plants arid vegetables. Carbonic acid gas also exists in great qu in- I titles in some caves and valleys, render ing them incapable of supporting lile, and I this property has often been attributed to some plants, as upas, Ac. Hydrogen gas is one-fourteenth the weight of air. and has peculiar properties.
