Women kayo a liner aii more exact $ ense of honor than viol ; their ideas of right and wrong are not per vetted by motives of expediency , and sordid calodations are less apt to tnfn mice their judgment , 1Vhenever a thief or an enbezzkr is brought to justice we generally read that the Itiat's ivifo is { ) rostrated by the knowledge of her husband's crime , This coiichmsively shows that she was iu igno ounce of his wrongdoing , and no one is more astounded by the ehnmx than the iyoumm whose name has been dishonored. And it is et her the greatest blow falls ; the pity of the world , of pity be extended to her , is tempered by scorn , and , be she ever so innocpnt , she never escapes a cer tain amount of condemnation.
