QJ" Address to - J. I. CO HEN. Jr. BROTHERS, Oct. 2.1. IS27. Baltimore. Husband s authority to correct his Wife. The authority which the husband has sometimes claim ed, under the law, to inflict cor poral chastisement upon his wife, seems not to have been given by the Hindoos. Their code con tains the following maxim: "Strike not, even with a blossom, a vifb guilty of an hundred faults." Curiosity. A gentleman on his way from Boston to Vermont, stopped at a tavern where he met an inquisitive country fellow, wiio said to him, 'where have you come from, if I may be so bold!' 'Not bold at all, I came from Boston Where are you going, if I may be so bold! I am going to Vermont. Who are you going to see there, if I may be so bold? I am ffoinsr . . i to see the widow M . Are you a married man, if I may be so bold? I am a widower. Are you going to be married to the widow M , if I may be so bold? That's too d d bold! A Bull. An Irish gentleman whose lady had absconded from him, cautioned the public against trusting her in these words: "My wife has eloped from me without rhyme or reason, and I desire no one will trust her on my account, for I am not married to her." Important. A pamphlet has jDeen published in France, entitled "the art of putting on a cravat in thirty-four different ways, with the author's portrait!" To be angry is to revenge the fault of others upon oursclyee. w
