CONTENTS
DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this little volume is fully answered if it creates a sigh in the bosom of our fair country-women for the afflicting situation in which rude laws and savage customs have placed the young and amiable part of their sex, and raise a feeling of gratitude to that Being who has cast their lot in a Christian country, and under British laws and opinions, which give equal protection to all, and require no sacrifices inconsistent with good, order and common sense. It is interesting and important to the observing mind which the author has done to compare the different sentiments which everywhere respect the relative situations of man and wife, to observe the customs with which different nations cement the conjugal union, and the condition of the sex in society.
