The time is fruitful of tinkers of the domestie relations, who are im patient of the old and honoted rules and habits whine prevaile in earli er generations. Sne would odi fy the mstriage laws, so that the obligatiou of the contract shall rest more lightly on the parties to it. Others woikl istroduce a certain in tklepndence of restraint, a so-called 'equality" which shall bet destruc tive of just distinctions of the sexes, while it impairs the clearly defined duntiti ting on ecan4. Thewo IRe lowg to the class of professed re fonwrs who talk loudly of the "emancipation of woman," of the "tyranny of man," and other vague Jotioas expressed in -cant phrase.s. There are other tinkerers who, without g ing to the extent of those just named, fancy they can suggest impiqrovements in the management of households anti home atlitirs, and in the mutual marital economy. O)nI of these recently set forth his 'iews in the pages of a popular t:tgazine. The writer's theory is that hus b:uiits and wives weary of each other after some years tf m:arriagae; that their lihes ease to be kindred il irnterest; that the objet which Ionli;t their atteution diverge more andi more; anti that the symlthy which is strong in the first stages ,f wedlock grows weaker and weak er, until it is entirely lost. The reason assigndll by the writer for this deplorable state of affairs is, tha:t whihi the it:ut's life is largely in anmt of the world, the woman's is, with lthe gatherinlg 3ears, more ci. sely restricted to the dumestic .i,,l,,, amld tlht famiily cares umie p,l.lize her ;ttention to the exucu hiom of outsiile interests. TIhe rentl, ,y13 plolem .d by the writer is that lmusnltmds shall seek to withdraw tlheir wives' attention fromn en mr,:sing household duties, anid di t-rt it oci.lsionally to cOIerIrns lie S,,ndi thor,limle -Irlersis,and pi-i '.mmt t leir wives ialping into a mmo Ilotinlllms fireside routine. It may e samid in reply to this, first, that the - theory is : false as snmnltion. It is not a fact that insbalils aind wives weary of each other as the marriage term extends. ''ime truth is directly the cmntrary wihen lmet atd vwomen are wisely nmtatedI. Thpir affectimon may be of a different kind, it may he less de-" nmtostrative, (although that is by no means necessarily the ease,) but it. is really stronger as they get on in life. The theory failing, the al leged reason fails with it; but the reason itself is unphilosophicaL Men, it is true, are mainly and un avoidably engaged in outside af f;irs, but it is ahout the home that their choicest and most enjoyabld iiiterests duster. To the home tlhey gl:ul'. turn for relief from tlhe Bares, perplexities, and disappoint mints of In.usines. , a-nd thler they fimnd recreation from thie overwork (,f the world, and lrealize tine hap pulmess. It is eqnally true that women's life is ehielly in the home, but it is not true that it is therefore dull ani devoid of genuinoe .stimnlhus. To the intelligent woman her well ordered household is full of contin nors an,1 varying attractions that forbid its experiences ever to be comie monottonus. In proof of this is the fiact, whiclh ilone has failedl to olbserve, that when at the eventming re-union the husbaud amid wife collmpare the notes of the day, the latter has qnito as nmuch of iu cideat andt suggestion to offer as the former. Eveh if the evil coaplaiuned of hy this writer existeI, his proposed renIly is worse thaq the disease. Those husbands and wives who cannot attain sympathetic com panioanship at home, cannot attain it anywhere. The wom anwho can not finai objects of interest, and thereform happinees, within her own houehol, will not lad themn out aile of it, and tlhse who are mor bidly dissatisfied with what they regard as rehide reoiue, will not Iern corpteelt by busying themislve artham The author of 'W re Comndir, pather Ab absm, Sthruie Hsndrtl Thkosmid Itare, i now editfrg a Democr.tic aewspaper in Richmaond, ;I diSU. -OF THE - STATE w LfISAWA.
