This is Ona instance in which tha present age has egregiously erred and in which a sickly and corrupt fashion has Inver Ted an ancient and healthful custom and the very Laws of the family Circle have Given place to a miserable suspension of its most indispensable duties. It is held derogatory to the style of a lady to be Domestic and an indignant flush will show that she wishes not to be considered As taking any part in the work or ordering of the family. It is in this respect that female education has one of its Greate St woman has dropped one of her richest plumes to insert in its place an artificial to sing mocking Bird or flutter As a Butterfly rather than to maintain the True dig nity and usefulness of Hersey.
