It will be seen that the Monumental Aso-
ciation has three objects in view; all of
which we believe are commendable: 'l‘o
erect a soldiers” monument; to prepare a
roll of tumor, and tocouduct memorial scr-
vica. -
Of course, at this stage in the organiza-
tion, but little can definitely be said regard-
ing the monument The Executive Com-
mittee who have it in charge, are active and
enthusiastic men, and will push the matter
with persistent energy. It is hoped that
many of our liberal and patriotic citizens
will subscribe generously towards the fund;
and as we understand the committee com,
template inaugurating a series of first class
entertainments the coming scason,we be-
lieve they will be liberally patronized by the
community.
The second object: “ To prepare and pub
lisba full record of those who have served
in the United Stowe army and navy,” is one
thuthas been already too long neglected,
and the accomplishment of which will be
boiled with satisfaction by many friends
and relatives of the patriot band.
The work of annually commemorating the
death of those who have fallen in the strug-
gle or since died, is the permanent pros-
pective object of this assmiation. The mon-
ument will be raised and the patriot roll
completed, and a great work will tbusbe
accomplished once for all; but with every
recurring spring-time, while the memory of
the patriot dead is still green in thehcarts
of their surviving comrades, the Monument-
al Association will pay its tribute to their
bravery, and revive, over the graves of
those who have scaled their patriotism
with their blood, the Old love of liberty
and faith in the right.
There is another mission that this associ-
ation will fulfill: The mission of mutual as-
slstance, sympathy and friendship, between
those who have fought for a common (muse.
The interests of all sick, indigent or unfur-
tunate comrades; the care of their wives
and children; and the protection of the
soldiers‘ widows and orphans will 'nutur-
ally fall upon it, and will not, we believe,
be evaded or reluctantly assumed.

“ Iron-Clad Modesty.”
It has always been supposed that modesty
was a very desirable element o'our natures,

always been considered a mos 'becom'ing
attribute, nor would one expect to find, in
these degenerate days when the supply of
true modesty appears so limited, more than
a sufficiency in the possession of any one
person, neither think that in proving invul-
nor-able modesty could thereby bficorne‘ri-
dlculous. But alas! I fear it may be so, for
did I not see the words “ ridiculous iron-
clad modesty," used in a quite urn-charming
manner in a very charming, true romance ?
It did not say false modesty nor could it
mean it, for that is never iron—clad ; being at
best but an armor of glass, transparent and
easily demolished. But what is there ridic-
ulous about it, if modesty should be iron-
clad? Nothing is created till the need ap-
pears, and when the icy front of simple, un-
assuming modesty could no longer repcl the

well for it that it could find an iron vusture

well for us if an iron-clad modesty shall
succeed in warding off the “brazen age"
which seems so fast approaching! ,
Then, as if the words “ ridiculous lron~
clad modesty," in the article referred to, did
not attach sufficient opprobr'tum to the qual-
ity, they must e'en be coupled with “ femi-
nine nonsense." Feminine nonsense, in-
deed!. Being an independent member of
the great. band of sisters,l should really

nonsense feminine so much more offensive,

nonsense masculine? Or doe nonsense it-‘

look of heartfelt sadness. I think I saw a

been mistaken, Men weep so seldom that
we must be careful how we give them the
credit of it. “Let us go," he murmured,
and we silently retraced our steps, I leanln

an effort to recover himself ; " I feel better
now." Upon reaching the house, he threw
himself upon the sofa, and the blood
streamed from the wound over his temple.
“ Mother has retired; shall ’I call her ?"
thought Ito m if. “ No, I feel strong and

bathed his 11 with cold water and bound
the wound up in securely. “ A thousand

sadly. “Dare I call you Berta ?" he then in-

A Bnavn Woman arm a Sum Doc.—
The Boston Herald states that a lady living
on Broadway, near the corner of Beacon
street, Chelsea, was in her chamber chang-
ing her dress, in the forenoon, when she
heard a step in the dining room below. A
large Newfoundland dog, who had been ly-
ing on the floor in her room, apparently
asleep, started up at the sound and went
down stairs. As soon as he reached the low-
er fioor he gave an angry bark that meant
business. The lady hurried on a dress and
went' down, when she saw a man, an ill-
looking fellow, who had just taken hold of
a valisc in the front hall, and about the
same time had been seized by the dog, who
had him firmly by the arm. On the lady‘s
demanding of the fellow why he was there,
he told her grufily to call ofl‘ her dog. She
glanced at the table in the dining room and
saw that the silver had disappeared, and
said to the man, “ Not until you have pro-
duced my- silver." After an attempted de-
nial the fellow produocdahaudful of spoons
and forks from his pocket, and again told
the lady to call off the dog. “ Not. until you
have put back the rest of the silver," said
the lady. He reluctantly pulled the rest of
the silver from another pocket. The lady
took off the dog, and ordered the follow to
walk slowly out of the front door, and
he willingly obeyed, evidently very much
impressed'by his interview with the lady
and her dog. The lady was entirely alone
in the house, and she managed the affair so
well, with the aid of her dog, that she only
has occasion to regret that she could not
give an alarm and secure the thief.

breathe his last sigh there, and to sleep his

“ Let me have a pine-tree planted beside my

the nearest approach to his desire, it was
their intention to plant an Italian stone pine
near his last rating-place; but before this

a photograph of his grave, and knowing his
request that a pins-tree might wave over
him, they borrowed from the Royal Conser-
vdtory an American pine, which was grow-

who had charge of the cemetery to return
it to the gnarl-house from which it had
been taken, and he promised to do so; but,
with the dilawrineas of an Italian, he al-
lowed some time to pass before he thought
of his agreemsat. Meanwhile the roots of
the growing pine-tree burst the earthon'pot
which had contained them, and embedded
themselves firmly in the ground under
which Theodore Parker rests, and so an
American pine-tree has planted itself over
the noble hearted American‘s grave. There
it stands, the most fitted of all monuments
over Theodore Parker's last resting place.
The slow years will bring to it only in-
creased strength and beauty, as the some
years will bring to Theodore Parker‘s mem-
ory only greater honor.

Loxonvm or Amman—An interesting
memoir has recently been published by Mr.
Lankester, of Oxford, in regard to the loa-
gevity of animals of did‘erent species, and
in this we are informed that an actmia has
been kept forty-two years .in an acquarium,
and is still alive. Some crustacca are known
to attain a great age; one species, however,
reduces and dies in from two to three
months. In the insect the perfect form var-
ies in its duration of life from some months
to a few hours, dying on reproduction,
while the age of the larvae mgeafxom
seventeen years (at least, as in- the caseof
the American locust) to a Week. Fish ac—
cording to the author, have great tenacity
of life, in one instances carp having been
knownongood evidenceto reach the age-
of 150,anda pike 287 pears. This fish is
said to have weighed 350 pounds, and to be
nineteen feet long, having been kept in a

“The rightsof women! Whatarethey!

Yes, “women delight to cry," indeed;
and thank God for the relief that Why
tears to watching, desolaté and forsaken
women in millions of homes in New Eng-
land; and after laboring till our fingersare
weary and worn, we may hear it boldly
proclaimed that, “while women can do
many things poorly, they rarely do any
one thing well,” an assenion'so pregnant of
unpopular disparagement, as to astonish in-
telligent hearers. ’We know—I mean
“every body knows" that women excel
men, not only in profuse "crying” and
“ nervous neuralgia," endurance, fortitude
and patience, but in mechanical labors, in
executive ability and literary attainments.
I could nameahuudred women when lib
erary productions excel any emanation!
fromthe conceited brain of mamcithcrin
poetry, history or sermons. Will you look
atLaMFrancetoday? Has ltnotbeen
ruled by a powerful man, and is it acts
wreck? Will you look at Great Britain,
and say no man admiros“the sunflower"
qualities of the grand, lovely, virtuous
woman, who has ruled her kingdom and
her household so long, so wisely and so ad-
vantageously? Will you dare to saythat
America has no Victorias, who could exe-
cute the laws at the W bite House with lam
of extravagance, of corruption, of lim-
tiousness and drunkenness,tha.n we many
times suffer from? Phrenologists will tell
you the heads of woman are not altogether
filled with nerves ; they have a fair propor-
tion of gray brains.
The days of man's ridiculing women to
popular advantage are passed; and while
every sensible Christian man and woumn is
ores and monstrous absurditim of issued,
which are pitiful enough when cxhifilc’d‘by
the wealthy, but doubly sorrowful when fol-
lowed by those whose position and bushes
“ every body knows," honestly admitsof no
no such indulgenccs, and the majoiitycf
which, as followed by the firmntail'fd
America, (who, I blush to acknowledge, are‘
well represented in our own community) are
simply ludicrous burlesques, still I cannot
see why uncomfortable and disfiguring coa-
tumes are any more ridiculous when worn
by women than when worn by men. A pad
in a man‘s vest is just as absurd and comical,
as a pad in a. woman’s dress. An over-tight
breechcs leg is just as awkward and tortur-
ous, and Itbink just a little funnier, than a
tight dress waist. The unfortunate wearer
of either is unnatural, and in order to sit
down, gasps, winces, and, by.virtue of rais-
ing both feet at once, thus losing their bal-
ance, they are by a special law of graceful
gravitation thrown, or rather dropped, back-
wards and downwards into 'a chair. The
style of men‘s hats changes oftener, quite as
uselessly, and more expensively than wo-
men's. Broadway styles of last winter left
the men even worse 03‘, and more like walk-

the tall and stately sunflower whose “ head
is clear,” and the poor simple little violet
often trampled down before its bloom. God
made both these flowers, and made them
just as they are and they cannot help them-
selves. If the sunflower with its luxuriant
and well-developed head, should attempt to
crouch down and hide its head with the
violets it would be a deformity tobc pointed
at; and if the violet tried to hold in little
blue face even with the sunflower, the pass-
ers~by would soot at the impossibility. So
the gurdmcr, if he wishes to perfect by cul-
ture a choice strawberry, does not do it by
pinching, and dwarfing, and depriving it of
soil and sunshine, and making it sick, and
puny, and knotty, and little, but by giving it
every opportunity for growth and develop
ment, and misting nature in perfecting a
large, sweet, rich, handsome berry; and
after he has perfected it he does not put it
inadarkcomerof the garden,in shadeof
a cmlrapple tree or poison hedge, and cover
it with a brass kettle, and say to it, “ You
are very good of your kind, but keep out. of
sight; it is your mission to refresh, but'you
must hide away, lest you attract- more ad-
miration than the squashes; and by and by
when your time comes, some hungryman
will eat you up." ' Ah no, for different; he
puts his beautiful perfected fruit in a prom-
merit deserves So with our women: (31.
