Here we have another example of past experience — that the men always side together when they havd the sul^'ection and submission of woman in view. The fiither even takes part against his own daughter. Har. I take no one's part except my own. My daughtw's and her husband's affairs do not concern me. I have only to settle with you, and I desire that you repeat those words. Mrs. H. Mr. H. ! Mr. H. ! how can you ask anything so foolish of your wife ? Har. Foolish or not that's not it This request ...is nothing more or less than the touchstone of obedience, and if my historical know- ledge serves me rightly, even so did Gesler hang his cap upon a pole, in Older that the Swiss might greet it : this was the touchstone of their obedience. Mrs. H. And, Mr. H., if my historical knowledge does ditto by me, it was because this request was so laughable, foolish, and unmanly^ that the Swiss revolted ag^nst their oppressors. Jes. Right, mamma, and we will act even as they did. Mrs. H. Yes, of course we will, my own child, and set ourselves in opposition to these self-elected loids of tho creation.
