It ie. a gilestion that has much discussed of late years, and 4. he aYS, "There never was a time hen wilder words were spoken, or Ore Vein iinagination permitted, re- arding this question -quite vital to 11 eeeial happiness." Our eonyersation this time will be •+entirely devoted to his views upon this ,tople, so you may prepare yourselves fere sornething interesting. You will • see 'wbat it is, immediately. We are setterey, hewearere.theit We abridgq. Milett, but we will give stifficient we truet, to creat a desire on your pari, :to learn them fully for yourselves. We gine you his exact words: #"We hear of the 'mission' and of the ,4rights' of woman, as if these could , ever be separate from the mission and the rights of man: -as if she and her • 'lcird were creatures of independent • kbad, and of irreconcileable claim. - "Phis, at least, is wrong. And not less Wong -perhaps even more foolishly eyrong (for I will anticipate thus far • what I hope to prove) -is the idea that ' Woman is only the shadow and attend- ant Image of her lord, owing him a • itheughtless and servile obedience, and ellapported altogether in her weakness by the pre-eminence of his fortitude. I say, is the most foolish of all ,uereors respecting her who was made to he the helpmate of man. As if he could be effectively helped by a slie- r,' slow, or worthily by a slave �e then goes on to say "Let us see Whether the greatest, the wisest, the opurest-hearted of all ages are agreed •an. anywise upon this point; let us hear the testimony they have left respecting What they held to be the true dignity of woman, and her mode of help to man," and follows this with the views ^,of ../Eschylus, Homer, Dante, Shakes- , peare and Sir Walter Scott, as they have presented them in their types of 'womanhood, in different portions of their works. Out of this we will pick two senten- ces: "You cannot think that the buck- ling on of the knight's armor by his •Ilady's hand was a mere caprice of ro- mantic fashion. It is the type of an -eternal truth that the soul's armour is never well set to the heart, unless a • weonsan's hand has braced it; and it is only -when she braces it loosely that the honor of manhood fails. . . . . He describes home in these beautiful -words: "But so far as it is a sacred • place, a vestal temple, a temple of the _hearth watched over by Household Alods, before Whose faces none inay .come but those whom they can receive with love, so far as it is this -and roof and fire are types only of a nobler shade and light -shade as of the rock a weary land, and light as of the ,Tharos in the stormy sea; so far it vin- 4:4icates the name and fulfils the praise hot oine. And wherever a true wife .comes'this home is always round her. ;The stars only may be over her head; the glow-worm in the night -cold grass 'may be the only fire at her foot; but home is yet wherever she is; and for a noble woman it stretches far round her, better than ceiled with cedar, or painted with vermillion, shedding its ,..s,ianietelight.fstee for -those whe,elseavere- homeless. This then, I believe to be - will you not admit it to be -the wo- man's true place and power?" Regarding the period of girlhood lie sounds a chord which vibrates with a little warning, but do not misunder- stand it. "Do not think you can make :a girl lovely if you do not make her &sappy. There is not one restraint you put on a good girl's nature, there is not one check you give to her instincts of affection or of effort which will not be indelibly written on her features, with a hardness which is all the more pain- ful because it takes away the bright- ness from the eyes of innocence, and the charm from the brow of virtue." We can give you only snatches of • what he has said concerning a girl's ----.education. "I believe, then, with this ,exception, that a girl's education should be nearly, in its course, and material of study, the same as a boy's; but quite differently directed." We have not time to speak of the "exception" which he makes, so we pass on. "And in- eee-edeed,--ifthere were to -be any difference between a girl's education and a boy's, • I should say that of the two, the girl _should be earlier lead, as her intellect ripens faster, into deep and serious sub- jects; and that her range of literature •should be, not more, but less frivolous; • aralculated to add the qualities of pa- tfence and seriousness to her natural •poignancy of thought and quickness of • wit; and also to keep her in a lofty and `pureelement of thought. I enter notnow • into any question of choice of books; •,only let us be sure that her books are not heaped up in her lap as they fall 4;:eit of the package of the circulating • Jibeary,wet with the last and the light- est spray of the fountain of folly." Continuing this part of the subject, we quote a few remarks upon novel reading. "I speak, therefore, of good novels only; and our modern literature is particularly rich in types of such. Without, however venturing here on any attempt at decision how much novel reading should be allowed, let arse at least clearly assert this, that 'whether novels, or poetry, or history he read, they should be chosen. not • for their freedom from evil, but for their possession of good. The chance • of scattered evil that may here and • there haunt, or hide itself in, a power - Jul book, never does any harm to a • noble girl; but the emptiness of an author oppresses her, and his amiable lolly degrades her. And if she can have access to a good library of old and classical books, there need be no choos- ing at all. Keep the modern magazine and novel out of your girl's way; turn her loose into the old library every wet day, and let her alone. She will find what is good for her; you cannot; for there is just this difference between the making of a girl's character and a boy's -you may chisel a boy into shape, as you would a rock, or hammer him into it, if he be of a better kind, as you would a piece of bronze. But you can- not hammer a girl into anything. She grows as a flower does -she will wither -without sun; she will decay in her sheath, as the narcissus will, if you do not give her air enough; she may fall, • and defile her head in the dust, if you will leave her without help at some moments of her life; but you cannot fetter her; she must take her own fair form and way, if she take any, and hi • • neind as in body, Must have always 'ger household motions light mid fiee, 4tid steps et virgin. ilbarry,' Let her leeee Ju the library' 1ay as you do a fawn In a field. It Plows the latt4 weed 0 tialOS better than you; fwd the good onee too, and will eat settle bitter and prickly ones, Vela for it, which you had not the sligntest thought Wottld have been so," Once more we' quote in the same strain, "And not only in the mater- ial and in the course, but yet inore earnestly in the spirit of it, let a girl's education be as serious as a boy's. You bring up your girls as if they were rnent for sideboard ornament, and then complain of their frivolity. Give them the same advantages that you give their brothers, appeal to the same grand instincts 'of virtue in them; teach them also that courage and truth are the pillars of their being; do you think that they would not answer that appeal, brave and trite as they ttre.even now,. When.. yOu..knO.W.. that there is hardly a girl's school in this christian kingdom where the children's courage or sincerity would be thought of half so much importance as their way of coming in at the door; and when the whole system of society, as respects the mode of establishing them in life, is one rotten plague of coward- ice and imposture; cowardice is not daring to let them live or love except as their neighbors choose, and impos- ture in bringing for the purpose of our own pride, the full glow of the world's worst vanity upon a girl's eyes, at the very period when the whole happiness of her future existence depends upon her remaining undazzled?" We will not mar the effect of such language by any words of our own, brit will pass on to his views of a wo- man's duties. "Generally we are un- der an impression that a man's duties are public, and a wiaman's private; but this is not altogether so. .A man has a personal work or duty relating to his own home, and a public work or duty which is the expansion of the other, relating to the state. So a woman has a personal work or duty relating to her own home, and a pub- lic work or duty which is also the ex- pansion of that. "Now the man's work for his own home is, as has been said, to secure its maintenance, progress and defence; the woman's to secure its order, com- fcrt and lqveliness. "Expand both these functions. The man's duty, as a member of a common- wealth, is to assist in the maintenance, in the advance, and in the defence of the state. The woman's duty as a mem- ber of the commonwealth, is to assist in the ordering, in the comforting, and in the beautiful adornment of the state. - _ "What the man is at his own gate, defending it, if need be, against insult and spoil, that also, not in a less, but in a more devoted measure, he is to be at, the gate of his country, leaving his home'if need be, even to the spoiler, to do his more incumbent work there. "And in like manner, what the wo- man is to be within her gates, as the centre of order, the balm of distress, and the mirror of beauty; that she is also to be without her gates, where order is more difficult, distress more imminent, loveliness more rare." He concludes this subject with the following touching appeal to all good women. "Oh - you queens - you queens -among the hills and happy greenwood of th is land of yours,shall the foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; and in your cities, shall the stones cr:y out againstyou,. that they-Iffe-tHe liaFtirer Son of Man can lay his head?" • We hope to meet you once more, after which we will leave you -as we , have wished very sincerely to leave you -engaged in happy intercourse with our friend. POISONED BY SCROFULA \ Is the sad story of many lives made miser- able through no fault of their own. Scrof- ula is more especially than any other a hereditary disease, and for this simple rearson. Arising from impure and insuffic- ient blood, the disease locates itself in the lymphaties, which are composed of white tissues; there is a period of foetal life when the whole body consists of white tissues, and therefore the unborn child is especial- ly ensceptible to this dreadful disease. But there is a remedy for scrofula, whether hereditary �ri�quired. It is Hood's Sar- saparilla, which by its powerfnl effect on the blood, expells all trace of disease and gives to the vital fluid the quality and color of health. If you decide to take Hood's Sarsaparilla do not accept any 'substitute. . . • - Wag OQDERIOU UAW, Tho follovriug is the 00nelualen of the list of successful prize takers: Amateur. - Colleotion mit flowers, Veda by El 1.4 Watson, William Stew- art, Colleotion verbenas, Jelin T Dieltrion, Hand bouquet, 1 Jas Dickson, Or.

The Kaiser's new daughter is a par- ticularly welcome addition to his house- hold, for the reaon that previous to her appearance on the scene, eighty- four years had elapsed since a Queen of Prussia gave birth to a daughter. No means have been taken by the man- ufacturers to push the sale of their "Myrtle Navy" tobacco except giving from time to time a simple statement of the facto con- nected with it in the public press. The large and rapidly increasing demand for it has been the result of the experience of smokers which these statements suggested. Their advice to business men is to adver- tise largely if they have theeright article to back up the advertisement with. When Baby was reek, we gave her Castorta.
