mit yourselves to your husbands.’ ” But, St. Paul ! St. Paul ! you never had your hair combed. St. Paul ! St. Paul ! would that you could visit Wellington were it only for one fortnight, that you might, by the power of your persuasive eloquence, induce our weaker vessels to submit themselves to their poor storm-worn wearied lords and masters. Young man, you go to Kirkcaldie and Stains and ask them whether in their opinion the Christian wives of Wellington are dwelling in a condition of subjection to and are submissive to their Christian husbands. Kirkcaldie and Stains would smile benignly. A genera! titter would pervade the establishment. Kirkcaldie and Stains would look at you. They would say that they would indeed be pained and grieved to think the Christian wives of Wellington were subjected to and submissive to their Christian husbands. Young man, I am afraid your education has been much neglected. Take my advice, go marry some nice-looking, mild-lookiug, young Christian woman of Wellington, and in say six twelve, or eighteen months come narrate to me shortly your marital experiences. 'Soung man, don’t you see every day in the streets of Wellington, that the lords of creation are so awful ’feard of the ladies that they always uncover their heads when they meet them? Young man, a toast— THE LADIES. Young man, you are not the only Secularist or Freethinker in Wellington. Your name is legion. Go to your friends ; tell them the J.P. is taking his walks abroad. Tell them to meet, to elect a committee to do battle with the J.P.—our battle field the columns of the New Zealand Times. You seem very fond of picking boles in the J.P.’s belief. Fair play is bonny play. Tell them sit down, boil down, and shortly give a pen and ink sketch of the Secularist’s belief. It will afford the J.P. alike pleasure, amusement, and satisfaction to wait upon you and warm your poor silly Secularist Freetliougbt jackets for you. If you will do this, well and good ; if not, “ hush your row an a’ that.” Now, young man, let’s you and I have a little wee hit hymn. Close your eyes and ears, objectors. j 0! the depth of the riches hoth of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How mtsearchnhlc are his judgments, and his ways past finding out /—Rom. xi. 24. I Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan his work in vain ; God is his own interpreter. And lie will make it plain. —I am, &c, Thomas C. Williams, J.P. P.S.—Young man, do not forget to send the
