THE NEEVOTJS WIFE CDKED.
My friend Wilkin=i married a sweet yomig girl, of a quiet, amiable disposition, but iu uo waj skilled ia tho^H dome.stio arta without a knowledge of whidi a wife's duties are always felt to be hard in the beginniug. He was the envy of more than oue who had aspi¬ red to Ihe pon.^essiou of her haud. I knew hini to bri industrious, intelligent, and kind- hi'arted; and 1 felt sure that he had taken a life companion who would be faithful and loving. The promise was briglit euough lo warrant a prophecy of more than ordinary happiness.
Thcy rt'Diovo^ to aiiotbiT town. Ten years afttrwardrf, in pajsing through that towu, I called npou Wilkins, who met nie with tbe old, frank cordiality. Eyes and face were in a glow of pleasure, when, stxU grasping bis hand, I inquired after his wife. Ilis cotinte- nancG changed instautly.
*• Poor Mary The said, in a sad, discouraged
way; " tshe lias no health." " I am sorry," was my natnral response. '' Sickness and ihf loss of two of onr chil¬ dren have so wuru down body aud mind, that she ir^ now but a shadow of her former self. Worn of all, her nerves are fompletfly shat¬ tered. But yon mnst see her. To meet an old friend will <lo her gtiod. Will you speud the eveuing with u-?"
1 assented, and tbeu made further inquiries about his family and worldly condition. His story was not a very bright one. Tbe birtb of their first child was foUowed by a prostra¬ ting sickness, wbicli brought tbo young mother to the utmost verge of death.
" She bas never had good bealtb since," said Wilkins, iu a depressed voice. " My income was small, and we conld not afford tbe amouut of household assistance, in the begiuning, that she really required ; and so everything was against her restoration to souud healtb. Children come rapidly, bring¬ ing with theui more exhausting tares. And tbe deatli of two of our little oues, to wbicb I b.aTe referred, seemed to completo the work of ruin. She is now a hopeless invalid—a poor, weak, nervoua, unhappy creature—a mere wreck of wbat you aaw ten years ago, moving like a tearfnl ghost througb her daily round ofduties, and ouly kept alive by the constant aud careful attentions of a physician. I don't think the doctor has been out of my bouse for two weeka at a time for aix years, and I am sure has received more than three bnndred pounds of my money in tbat time. The fact is, what with doctors' bills, nurses, medicines, and tbe hundred nameless expen¬ ses a sick and nervons wife entails upon a man, my fortuues bave been marred. They keep me poor."
Wilkins spoke in a fretful voice. It was plain that be had grown impatient under the trials to wbich the had health of bia wife bad exposed him.
I called at his office agaiu towards evening and went home with bim. Had I met Mrs. Wilkins in the street, I would not have re¬ cognized in her the happy bride who, ten years before, blushing in beauty, I bad seeu giving ber hand in a lifo partnership, witb such loving confidence in tbe future, totbe husband of ber choice. Hercountenance was wan and wasted, all tbe beautifully rounded outlines gone; her eyes, deeply sunkeui were languid almostto indifference ; her hair once ricbly luxuriant, had fallen off, uutil scarce balf of it remained, and that looked dry and crisp, witb here and there a prema¬ ture line of gray. She stooped slightly, aud her motions were lifelesa.
A faint smile parted ber lips as I grasped her hand witb all the warmth of a genuine friendly interest. But it faded almost as SOOU as it was born. I tried to talk with ber in a cheerful strain, and did succeed in awa¬ kening a brief interest in the oldeu time. But the preseut was too painfully real; it would not permit her thoughts to indulge iu pleas¬ ant fancies. I could not belp askiug about berself and her children; and tbis turned the current of her feelings into its wonted cban¬ nel ; and I listened to ber sad heart-stories, and paiuful experiences iu sickness, until my own feelings were deeply shadowed. 1 pitied her. What a sombre, suffering life bad been hers! Into what a world of misery, instead of happiness, bad marriage translated her!
As sbe talked I observed her husband care¬ fally. It was plaiu that he had bat little sympathy witb bis wife's state of feeling.— Se was a suflerer with her, though iu a lighter degree; and, as bis sufferings originated in her, tbere was, plainly, a certaiu lack of kindly patience towards bis companion.-— Several times Jie interrupted ber, trying to draw the conversation into anotlier channel; and once or twice he threw in depreciating sentences, as if she were exaggerating tbo unhappy story of her life.
I learned lhat Mrs. Wilkins rarely, if ever, went out^of her own bouse. Her duties were very arduous, aud her ability, from ill health, small. Every day she worked to bodily ex¬ haustion, and usually in pain. There was uo recreation of any kind, bodily or mental. It was a living death. No wonder she was a drooping, wretched, nervous woman.
Kest day, I called to see my friend, having made np uiy mind to have a plain talk with bim. I referred to his wife, expressiug my earnest sympathy in regard to her,
" Poor Mary 1" he replied;" "her case is hopeless, and mine, too, I fear."
"While there's life, there's hope," said I, using the phy.>ician's half-despairing axiom. He regarded me a little curiously. "How often do you take her out?" I in¬ quired.
He shook his head.
"Can't afford carriage hire ; 'tis as much as 1 can do to pay the doctor. Ko, no, neither of us bave timo or mouey to speud for riding out."
" Cbango and fresh air, you will fiud hetter and cheaper medicines thau doctor's stuff.— Do you take her to the sea-side in summer?'' "You are jesting," he replied with the ai of oue who felt that an uudue liberty had been taken.
" Far from it my friend," I answered seri¬ ously. "I feel too warm an interest in you to jest on a subject like this."
"A visit to a watering-place is a luxury," he remarked, sadly.
"Do not name them as luxuries in your case. If the enervated votary of pleasure needs them for recreation, and to impart a new zest to the year's succeeding round to gay existence, how much more essential are they for the sick, tbe nervous, the tsbausted toiler in Uf»'s field of earnest labor? I fear, my friend, that you have not thonght wisely of your wife's true position; that, in some sense, you are to blame for her present ill health and stale of mental depression," " How ?"
Wilkins looked surprised. " The human soul," I answered, "is not a piece of senseless machinery: not made up of a series of iron wheels that can do their work as well iuthe dark, underground cham¬ ber as inthebroaddaylight. Eventheflower musthave change—air, sunlight, morning, evening, and the advancing seasons, for its healthy growth and maturity. Bat the buman soul ia of higher organization, aud bas multitudinoas wants compared witb the flower.   Sh.Qt np the flower from the warm
sun and tbe refresbmg air, and wiU it not grow sicklr?—nay, will it not fade, wither, aud die? You are treating your wife with less consideration than you would treat & bon?Bplaut. No wonder that sbe is dying daily."
Wilkins reall/ looked amazed; and I was for a little while in douiit whether he were offended at my freedom, or astounded at bis own blindness touching tbe nature and wants of the human soul which he bad joined iu a life companionship with his own.
" Nature's two best physicians," I went on, "are pure air and exercise. And, what is hetter they chargo nothing for attendance."
"To a large part of mankind," answered Wilkins, " time is money. It is so in our case."
" Don't make that too positive a conclusion. Increaso the strength, aud yoa diminish the hours of labor—nay, more, you remove from
"How did you prevent this f" I inquired.
" By acting on the bint you gave. I hired a carriage for an afternoon, once a week, while the pleasant weather Listed, and show¬ ed her all the fine scenery within ten miles of the town. It cost me a few shillings each time; bat it was cheaper than paying the doctor, and the medicine cnred more radical¬ ly. You cau't imagine what a cbange in her feelings took place. Nothing outside of tbe narrow circle of bome interested ber before ; thought seemed asleep, or palsied; bat uow abe lakes an interest in everything."
" Was it uot starved into more than infan tile weakness ?" I inqnired.
*; Perhaps so," he said tbougbtfully. " Tbe mind must have its appropriate food as well AS the hody."
" Nothing is truer tbau that,"  I replied.
" And, like the body, it must have the al¬ ternations of shade and sunshine, fresh  air
tbe canse of extreme exhaustion. My word for   j^^^i exercise.    It must have change and re-
it, if you had spent twenty pounds a year m giving your wife cbange of scene, sea-bathing, and mental as well as bodily recreation, your doctor's hill uould have been reduced by more than tbat amount. How often do you take her to concerts, theatres, or other places of innocent amusement?"
" We haven't been to a concert for five years," said he.
" And yt?t I remember sbe was passionately fond of music."
"Wb can't afford it," remarked Wilkins, gloomily.
"Better go without dinner occasionally. Health of tbe sonl is quite as essential as health of tbe body. If you starve tbe former, what is there in mere eating and drinking wortb living for?"
" Mary wouliin't go if I were to purchase tickets. She has housed herself so long that sbe has no desire to step across the thres¬ hold,"
" For wbich, speaking frankly, aud to an old friend, you are in a great measure to blame. And uuless you at once, aud witb a purpose not to be set aside by first difijculties, actually compel your drooping wife to go ; forth, a few years will close up the history of a wretched life."
"Ah I" said ha, "Ican feel the force of what you sayi But how aud where to begin ?— Tbat is the question."
"I notice," was my reply, " that a celebra¬ ted composer aud pianist is iu your town, and will give this eveniug oue of bis concerts. Take her to hear him."
" I am goiug to invite her," said I; " and I don't belive slm will refuse me." " I'm sure she will not go." Wilkins was quite positive. " We'll see.    You will take a note of invi¬ tation from me.    I will enclose tickets for you both, aud say that I  will call iu  the eveuing, and  make one of the compauy at tbe concert ?"
Wilkins was incredulous, and half oppo¬ sed me; but my Interest in his unhappy wife was loo strong, and I resolved to have my own way. The tickets aud invitation were accordingly sent.
I called at my friend's office in the after¬ noon to go home with him.
" Well," said I, cheerfully, " what word from your good wife ? Will she be ready for the concert ?"
" I am afraid not."
Wilkins shook his head, and looked gloomy.
" Wbat did she say ?"
" That it was impossible for her to go out —lhat sbe couldn't leave the children, and, finaUy, after I had met every objection with a reason that could not be gaiusayed, she declared that sbe didn't feel a wish lo go, and couldn't think of it."
" The ice is very solid, and hard to break through." I smiled as I spoke. " It is that want of inclination, wbicb must be over- ; come,    Slie'll go if we insist  npon it."
But Wilkins was of a different  opinion.
" I know ber a great deal better than you do," was his answer.
I went home with bim, Tbere was a change in Mrs. Wilkins; a glance revealed tbis. The languor aud exhaustion, so pain¬ fully apparent on the previous evening, were scarcely visible. Her eyes were brighter, her countenance more elevated, ber lips had a firmer outline. I saw that some attentiou had heen given to hyr dross; and, though not in the concert trim, it was plain enongh that it would uot take ber a very great while to be in presentable condition,
Wilkins was in error.- His wife did go to the concert, aud surprised botb bim and her- self by tbe amount of pleasure she received from tbe exquisite performance. Indeed, she expressed her satisfaction in lively terms, and witb a glowing face, in tbe intervals of many of the pieces.
"How is Mrs. Wilkins ?" I asked of my friend, as I entered his place of business on the next day.
"Better thau for many months, I am pleased lo say," was bis answer. " She seemed, this morning, almost another wo¬ man. Thai music was like an elixir to her soul."
" I had faith in it," said I. " Depend up¬ on it, Wilkius, yon bave been consenting lo your wife's death by murder and snicide— murder on your part, and suicide on hers- My next recommendation is the sea-side. Give up your busiuess for a week: take your wife to some watering-place immediate¬ ly. Sea air, sea bathing, aud a sight of old ocean, will put new life into her veins."
" She can't possibly leave home. Wo have too many young children."
" She'llhave to leave home, aud her young children, too, for ever, if you don't do some¬ thing to save her." I spoke with some feel¬ ing, for I was a Httle provoked at my friend's inclination to throw difficulties in the way. " Just make up yonr mind that tbe thing has to be done,' and I'll answer for your wife. Tbe fact is, it's my opinion tbat she'll say ' Yes,' on tbe first proposition."
And so she did. A little management waa practised. I accepted another invitation to lea, and, dnring the evening gave as graphic a descriptiou as was iu my power, of the novelty, excitement, and wonderfully bene¬ ficial effects of a week at the sea-shore. My owu experience was quite to tbe point, hav¬ ing regained strength almost by magic after a long period of extreme nervous exhaustion. "You must take your wife to the sea¬ side. It is just what sbo wants," said I after tbe way bad been fully prepared.
Wilkins followed up witb suck a bearty acquiescence that the poiut was carried un¬ der scarcelyan appearance of objection. Dif¬ ficulties were, of course, suggeste.l; but tbese were pronounced of sucb slender importance that they were waived almost as soon as pre¬ sented. Two days afterwards, I had tbe satisfaction of seeing them off. Asl shook bands with them at parting, I could see iu the countenance of Mrs. Wilkius somo re¬ viving traces of her old girlish beanty ; and a rekindling in ber eyes of the light of o ther days.
A year afterwards I made it my business to visit my old acquaintance. He received me with a warmth of manner and cheerful¬ ness of spirit whicb satisfied me lhat bis state of mind bad considerably improved.
"How is Mrs. Wilkins?" limmediately in¬ quired.
A broad smile went over his face as he re¬ plied—
" A thousand times hetter than wben yon saw her a year ago."
" I am delighted to bear you say so. How did the sea-side prescription  answer ?"
"Admirably. It worked like a charm. Mary came back another woman. It was to her almost like discovering tbe fountain of eternal yontb. I never saw snch a change iu any one." '
" Didn't sbe fall back into old habits of mind and body after her   retum   to the city ?" "No'
creation, as well as seasons of labor. With¬ out tbese, mental bealtb is impossible ; and, witbout mental health, there can be no tme bodily health."
Husbands, I fear, are not thoughtful enough about their wives in this particular. I am very certaiu if every toiling housekeeper, and worn down, nervous, exhausted mother whose pale face is hardly ever seen beyond the por¬ tals of her own door, were forced abroad oc¬ casionally into tbe social world, if they would uot go willingly, aud taken yearly tothe sea¬ side for a few weeks, tbat hundreds and thousands of wives and mothers who are now sickly, nervous and unhappy, would be in the enjoyment of good health and cheerful spirits, giving light to their homes, and hap¬ piness to tbe hearts of their husbands.
Try the prescription, ye men with sickly, toiling, exhausted wives, wbose pale faces haunt your homes like ghosts of former blessings. Pity tbem wisely, and hold them back, whiU* you may, from the low resting places under the green turf to¬ wards which tliey are descending with rapid feet.
THE LADIES' COLTTMN.
That steadiness of purpose is uecessary to the attainment of excellence in whatever we pursue is never denied, not even by tbose wbo, judging from their actions, depend wholly on casualties for success. But still, tbis steadiness is mostly urged on men, as heing necessary for them in their pursuit of fortune and struggle to gain distinction.— Most people seem to think Uie ordinary busi¬ ness of life, especially the doinestic duties committed to the woman, cau be performed witbont   much mind, plan,  or perseverance.
And perhaps there is uo employment pur¬ sued by reasoning beings witbso little system orconsistency, as tbe management of infants. Not only do differnut mothers have entirely different methods of training their children, but the same mother rarely pursues for a whole week the same method. One day sbe has leisure to pay constaut attention to her child; tbe next, perhaps, "she turns it off," as the term is, as mucb as possible: this hour, its least murmur is hushed by kisses, aud the next, it is suffered to cry unheeded.
It is mainly to this capricioasness of the mother or nurse, that the crossness of heaUhy cliildren is to be attribnted. The infant is first enervated by ton mnch nursing, and then wearied hy being too long neglected, aud his uneasiness is made knowu by tbe only means in his power, which is lo cry.— And wbeu he learns—and he soon learns— lhat tears and clamor draw the attention Of his mother he will cry till gratified by her presence; and every indulgence of passion makes him more irritable; till, finally a habit of crying, or those periodical fits of crossuessj which are usually attributed to every cause save the right one, namely, bad management, are engendered. Then the high temper of the little creature is lo be subdued, often by harshness, when, had be been judiciously treated that temper would neither bave heen kindled uor displayed.
For tbe first three or four montbs df an infant's life, the feeble mind takes but littte cognizance of the objects tbat surround it. Quietness and rest ou the bosom of tbe mother aro all that are then required to make the babe bappy.
After that period a beaUhy child cannot he easily managed withoat amasements, or employments, rather—idleness is rarely the fault of cbildren. Care should theu be taken to furnish proper playthings ; expensive tuys are not necessary ; a rattle, and blocks, balls and little hammers of wood are the best toys,
Bnt they sbonld never be painted, as a child always conveys whatever he has to his mouth. It is necessary that there should be a great variety in the size and form of the playthings, and they should be often changed, and the infant early accustomed to have one thing taken from his hand and another sub¬ stituted. More depends on this seemingly trifling circumstance than those who uever watched its operation are aware. A cbild tbus habituated to tbe frequent change of his playthings will easily relinquish, and generally without noise or..lrouble, auy for¬ bidden thing whicb be may chance to bave seized ; au affair of no small moment to his own happiuess, and the comfort of tbose wbo bave the care of him. The tenacity with which mauy childreu retain their grasp . of an object wbicb they must not be premit- ted to have, aud the grief tbey feel, to aay notbing of the anger tbey frequently exhibit, wben it is taken from tbem, are extremely painful to witness. The iufaut who has* always been accustomed to frequent chances of bis toys will seldom be thus troublesome. And a habit of yielding is also imperceptibly formed, and habits are so much more wil¬ lingly obeyed than commands, that it is strange parents do uot pay more attention to fix those of their cbildren, lu accordance wilh that obedience which it will soon he necessary to exact from them.
All causes of exciting restlessness by bodily irritation, such as tight or otherwise uucom- fortable clothing, should be carefully avoided. Ease, neatness, and economy are all the fash¬ ions that need he consulted in infants' dresses. No female vanity is so reprehensible as that displayed by the woman wbo decks her little children in costly array. The teasing care¬ fulness requsite to keep them from injuring their finery coustantly interrupts tbeir sports, disturbs ' their enjoyments, and not unfre¬ quently makes tbem fretful, feverish and wretched. And all this is done and suffered to gratify the mother's foolish vanity. Who can wonder at the vanity of her child's mind, thus early taught to prize show ; or the per¬ versity of its temper, made to sacrifice its innocent pleasures ou the shriue of pride and caprice 7
Thb Sermos' on thh Moitnt.—^The delivery of the sermon on the Mount ts probably the most striking example of moral coarage which the world has ever seen. There are two circumstances wbich render the occasion on which,it was delivered very extraordinary. First, it was a very public ocoasion. A vast multitude from almost every part of the country were assembled. Judea, the Soath¬ ern province, and Galilee, tbe Northern, were represented. So were the Eastern and Wes¬ tern shores of the" river Jordan, and many distant cities and towns. From all tbis wide extent of coantry, a vast maltitude, attract¬ ed by the fame of the Saviour's miracles, had assembled to hear what tbis professed mes¬ senger from heaven had to say.
Again, it was probably, tbo' not certainly, a very early ocoasion, perhaps tbe flrst on which the great prinoiple.-* of tbe gospel were to be annonnced to men. By tbis discourse, containing, as it does, so plain aud specific an exposition of the false notions of religion then prevailing,the Savionrmustbaveknown he was laying the foundation of tbat enmity wbich was loresultin bis destruction. Butdid he shrink? Did he hold back? Did he conceal or cover over oue aingle obnoxious feature of the truth ? He knew that the report of tbat meeting must be spread to every part of the country. Aa he looked around upon his auditory, he must have seen, here one from a Galilean village, there another from beyond the Jordan: and again a third who would carry bis report lo distant Jerusalem; and yet, thus completely exposed, instead of attempting to soften or conceal, he brought ont all tbe distinctive features of prevailing error, and contrasted them with the pare .principles of His spiritual religion, with a plainness and point which were exactly calca¬ lated to fix them in the memory, and to circu¬ late them most widely throughout theland— Abbott's Corner Sione.
TuE Stuo.\g A.VD Weak Members of the HoMAif System.—The deaths in New York last woek were 471, and a classification oftbe diseases shows wbat parts of the system are most liable to give oat during the hot weather, at least. The bones and joints are responsi¬ ble for only 2 deaths, and this vindicates their good reputation as ihe reliable frame work of the system. The heart and blood vessels, wbicb would seem to he most deli¬ cate and fragile portions of the body, were the seat of but eight mortal attacks. The skin, exposed to the infectious siege of dirty streets and an atmosphere poisoued in a thousand ways, yielded in 23 cases. The lungs aud throat, enfeebled, doubtless, in moat cases by the spring-east winds, formed the chanuel for communicating deatb to no less tlian S2 persons. The brain and nerves, whereby an Indian or an agriculturist proh¬ ably, uever died, sent 97 individuals to their graves, as the token, not of an excessive, but of a defective and misused civilization. But we approach the climax iu this direction. Brains may be abnsed in New York, but the stomacb baa grievances beyond number, and, we fear, redress. Of those who died last week, 179 received tbe mortal stroke within the region of the digestive organs I This is a sad comaientary upon modern modes oflife —for we are not aware of any indication that the stomacb is by nature weaker thau the other members of tbe physical system.
How TO Make a Horsb Draw.^I once knew a mau tbat bought a fine looking sorrel mare, that was as false as a beast could be, but he fiually cured her to perfectiou in the following manner: He geared her to tbe cart, and went to the cornfield to get a load of pumpkins. After he bad gol some len or a dozen on, she thought sbe had too much load, and refused to pult. He coaxed and petted her for some time, but all to no purpose. He next got a stick and thumped and thrashed witb the samo success. He then tliought he would try another plan. He got a wheelbarrow, and wheeled pumpkins enough to make a full load, and put tbem iu the cart, whenhe look her by the bead again, but itwas no go. He then started home, and concluded she might either pull the load or staud there uutil tbe day of judgement. But wheu the suu began to get low, she began to think about her sap¬ per and started for bome, passing skillfully through three sets of bars, and arrived at the bam iu safety witb her load. He pat ber iu the stable, and fed her as if notbing had happened. She refased to pull at two other times, bnt she got the same treatment eaoh time, so she found it was no use, for sho bad to pull tbe load iu the end. After that sbe became aa good a beast to work as ever waa liitched.

MoDESTT.—A modeat young lady deairing a leg of a chicken at the table said :
"Vll take the part which ought to be dressed iu drawers!"
A young gentleman opposite immediately said:
" I'll take the part which ought to wear the bustle!"
Harthshorn was immediately administered to the lady.
All medical men unite in declaring that nothing is more beneficial to the health than hearty laughter ; and surely our benevolent creator would not hare provided, and made it a source of health and enjoyment to use it, and then have made it a sin to do so. The prevailing temper of the mind should be cheerful, yet serious ; but there are times when relaxation and enjoyment are proper for all.
A negro woman was relating her experience to a gaping congregation of color, aud among other thinga, she said she had been in heaven. One of the ladies of color asked her: "Sister, did you see auy black folks up in heaven?" *'0h, get ontl you s'pose 1 go in the kitchen when I was dar ?" This reminds ua ofthe anecdote of auother colored man, who was so convinced ofthe lowliness of hiB poaition; and that labor was a natural lot; that he even was indifferent aatoa future state, believing that " dey'll make nigger work eben ef he go to Hebben." A clergy¬ man tried to argue him oat of his opinion, by representing this uot to be the case, inas¬ much as there was absolutely no work for him to do in Heaven. His answer was: "Oh, you g'way, massa, I knows better. If dere's no woik for callud fokea up dar, dey'll make *em shub de clouds along. You can't fool  thia  chile."

Good NEtccBOEs.—Tha Newburyport Herald gives a curious account of a "queer kettle of fish" that is being cooked at Georgetown.— It seems that there is a dispute between two neighbors about the ownership of a small tract of land, and in a half dozen years of contention, more than forty suits havo been brought by the rival parties. This year, as heretofore, one of the parties would cnt the grass, and before it was cleverly cnred, the other would have it iu his cart; but before he could reach his barn, the first man would have the Sheriff and his Police posse for the rescue ; and then would come suits for raa- licious trespass, and occasionally, to diversify the proceedings, for assault. Thus they have managed for the last week to average about two suits a day, one party being waited upon into Court in the morning by the Constable' and the other being a prisoner in the after¬ noon. It could have been settled at any time fora trifle of money, but neither wouldyield. Finally, the whole question is to be referred to Judge Hoar, whose opiuion is to be bind¬ ing.
