your stockings, mend your doilies, take care ofyoar
children, and watch over your sick bed? Was it
simply to conduce to your own comfort? Or was
there some understanding that site was to be made
happy in her connection with the man site dared Is
love ?
Nor is it a sufficient answer that you reply that you
give her a home; that you feed and clothe her. You
do this for yout help; yon would do it for an iadtfer*
ent housekeeper. She is your wile, and nnless jron
attend to her wants, and iu some way answer the rea
sonable expectations you raised hy your attentions be
fore marriage, you need not wonder if slie be dejected,
and her heart sink into insensibility; tint if this be so,
think well who is the cause of it. We repeat it, very
few women make indifferent wives, whose feelings
have not met with some outward sliock by the indiA
forenre or thoughtlessness of their husbands. It it
our candid opinion that pi a large majority of the in
stances of domestic misery the man is the aggressor.

shock. This led to the discovery that electricity was
given out bv the steam with great rapidity, and might
be collected as from a powerful electrical machine.
It has been ascertained, moreover, that the phenome
non does not arise from any circumstances peculiar to
the boilers in which it was observed; for, in many
other boilers, which have since beeu tried, the steam
has been found to develope electricity very copiously.

1 patronage heretofore extended, th.
in their homes Iw their own neglect to make their
homes interesting ami pleasant. It should never be
forgotten that the w ife has her rights—as sacred after
marriage as before—and a good husband’s devotion
to the wife after marriage will concede to I er quite as
much attention as his gallantry did while a lover. If
it is otherw ise, lie most generally is at fault.
Take a few’ examples. Before marriage a young
man would feel some delicacy about accepting an in
vitation to spen l an evening in company where his
ladje love bad not been invited. After marriage is
he always as psrticular? During the days of court
ship his gallantry would demand that he should make
himself agreeable to her; after marriage it often hap
pens that married men, after having been away from
home the live-long day, during which the wife has
toiled at her dtt ies, go at evening again to some place
of amusement, and leave her to toil on alone, ttn-
checred and unhappy. How often it happens that
her kindest offices pass unobserved, and unrewarded
even bv a smile, and her best efforts are condemned
by the fault-finding husband. How often it happens,
even when the etening is spent at home, that it is em
ploy ed in silent reading, or some other way that does
not recognize the wife’s right to share in the enjoy
ments even of the fireside.
Look, ye husbands, a moment, and remember what
your wife was when you took her, not from compul
sion, but from your own choice; a choice based,
probably, on vhatyou then considered her superiority
I to all Olliers. She was young—perhaps the idol of a
' happy home; .lie was gay and blithe as the lark, aud
i the brothers aid sisters at her father’s fireside cher
ished her as ai object of endearment. Yet she left
all to join her lestiny with yours; to make your home
, happy, and to to all that wornauL ingenuity can ev.se J
to meet voorwi.hesand lighten the bur Jen. which might !
1 press upon yoi in your pilgrimage. She, of course, j
had her exnecations too. She could not entertain.
! feelings which promised so much, without forming j
some idea of reciprocation on yonr part, aud she did j
: expect vou would after marriage perform those kind i
1 offices of which v«ti were so lavish in the days of be- 1
spots, upon • yellowish brown and white ground, and
so closely resembles the skin of an African Leopard,
that it would be difficult to distinguish it, if found
among several skins of that animal. Many persons
iu theU. States have doubted the xtatements made by
travellers that the Leopard exists in Texas, but if they
could visit Bexar ami its vicinity their skepticism
would soon vanish. It is said that great numbers of
these Leopards are fotiud in the vicinity of the Nueces
and the Rio Grande. Although the\ rival the Afri
can species in size and beauty of tln-ir skins, they are
probably less fierce and rapacious, as they have never
beeu known to attack man—their depredations have
generally been confined to the herds of deer that
frequent those sections.—lloichm Telegraph.
