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.
