The Young Wife.--The young wife should remember that she has chosen her own lot in life, she has connected it with her husband, and if by decree of an allwise Providence, he becomes embarrassed, it is her duty to aid him by her kindness--not to mutter or oppose him by her ill temper. Upon the male sex, the task of providing the means of subsistence is in civilized society, almost exclusively imposed; and consequently, when they become distressed, and wherewithal to provide for their partners they suffer doubly. They have not their privations to regret, but yours also: and the world's frown, and the world's-oftentimes unjust-censure, falls exclusively upon the husband. The wife can hide herself from the world, but the husband must face its pride, its prosperity. May all young wives be permanently prosperous: but for their own sakes, and the honor of womanhood, we admonish them not to let adversity, should it unfortunately lay its iron hand upon them, induce them to depart from that affectionate conduct in word or deed, which they owe to their husbands, and conduct themselves in such a manner as to do away the truth of the old proverb.-"When poverty comes in at the door, love flies out at the window.'
