She speaks of the gentleness and modesty of Anna Lane, of her qutet happiness beneath her father's roof, wor. shipped by a tender mother, and watched over with unceasing care by a high minded and devoted brother. She depicts her as tha pride of the village, and welcome as a sunbeam to the hearts and homes of all ; sprightly but dignified ; trustful bu: innocent ; a companion tor the white hair ed sage, a playmate for the little child.— Bui lo, a cioud, black and dismal, and belted by the lightning, ia casting its shad, ow over the hearthstone where she dwells. The slanderer has painted its inky face, and the lightning is the reflection of that deathless tire that consumes his own fiendish heart. Ha saw a happy family, and hated them for their high position—he h-s lifted his hand, hoping to intercept those sunbeams of happiness that fell so lovingly about them—the gift of Him who loves the pure of heait; and shall he longer glory in his shame I What is the matter Indies J Do not the gray-headed fathers bow low enough to girls of sixteen ? Is it not enough that iliey offer their seats to the full grown female babies of public assemblies, to.) often unrewarded even by a smile? Is it not enough that, in this chrisiion age and country, many a father bestows the greater part ot a limited income upon hisdaugh ters, that they may grow up beautiful, delicate, nnd accomp!ished ; while the sons go out into the world half.educated to earn their own bread, and shape their own des linies ?

A pretty western town. The quiet moon beams glimmer on the roofs of many a peaceful home. The ham of business has subsided, and the sons of toil are gathered with their lamiliea at the well filled board, or walking up and down the streets, chatting with the loved ones for whom ali days are spent.

No, she is listlea* and weary ; unsatisfied with her yet too quiet lot, she says, aspiring still, Excelsior. She sinks upon a cushion, remembering how she has been disgusted with ignorance, offended at vulgarity, and satirized by the counsel on the opposite side. She lays an aching head upon the pillow to night, saying bush to a low-voic«d monitor which tells her she has unsexea herself, that no woman should submit her sensitive nature to ordeals like this, and that she compromised the dignity of the woman wheu she accepted the laurels of the orator. Long after midnight kind Nature's sweet restorer visits her— she dreams ol "Hon." prefixed to Caroline Seymour, and of being herself the occupant of the Presidential chair—and there we leave her.

Here and there, as one to the million, is seen a female of superior physicsl and mental power united ; such a one as could endure the toil and self-denial requisite to due preparation for the ministry, if such a one could^divest herself, in part, of that inconvenient diffidence which chokes in the throat and blushes on the cheek; if, conscious only of her high responsibilities, she could present herself with uncovered head and up lifted hands before a promiscious congregation, (and if she could unsay the sayings of one "Paul," a preacher of long ago ;) we should say in all reverence, preach boldly.
