V. S. GRANT. By the Presldont : Hamilton Fish, Secretary of Stale. Women sometimes ilo not valu.t their husbands as they ought. They not untreqiicntly learn the value ot t, good husband for the first time by th loss of IlliB, Yet tlie husband is tho very roof-tree of the house, tho come stone of the edifice, the keystone o the arch called home. He is the brean winner of the family, the defense am its glory, the beginning and the endinj of the golden chain ot life which sur rounds it; its consoler, its law-give and Its king. And yet we see hov frail that life is on which so ranch dc pends ! How trail is tho life ot a hu? band and a father ! When he is taken away who shall fill his place? Whep he is ill, what gloomy clouds hove over the house ! When lie is dead wha. what darkness, weeping, agony ! Then poverty, like the mimlerous assassin, breaks in at the windows; starvation, like a fatiijshirfg wolf, howls at tho door. Vldowhood is too oftea thtt associate of sackcloth and ashes. Or phanhood, too, means desolation atw woe. ' - - " t ' ' ;': ; :.'
