GRIST FOR THE MILL.
Old proverbs and sayings may often badsde,
To bear with effect upon matters of tr ;
And MOSES and SON, fully conscious of this,
Have thouabt the above wouldn't
fiferansw amiss,
And you all may be firmly convinced, ou will,
That MOSES and SON have brought " grist to the mill."
In quality's field they have gleaned for success,
And in proof they would point to their durable dress.
Was ever such quality seen in attire?
Have make and material ever ranked higher?
No, reader, you can"ot dispute, if you will,
That MOSES and SON have brought " grist to the mill."
In the fair grounds of Fashion they also have sown,
And elegant fruits of their labours are shown :
The Trousers, the Waistcoats, the Drees-coats and Frock,
And the juvenile styles which distinguish their Stock,
And all that assists the grand dress-mart to fill,
Are proofs that in Fashion there's " grist for the mill."

And look at the savings the public have made,
By supporting E. MOSES and SON in their trade.
Their dress-mart is ruled on economy's law—
A law from which MOSES will never withdraw;
And all who have favoured, and iavour it still,
have declared Messrs. MOSES bring " grist to the mill."

N.R.—E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their pre-
sent Stock of juvenile attire. The designs are elegant and unique,
and the workmanship and materials are suck as to command univer-
sal approbation, while at the same time the prices are unusually mo-
derate.

The Parent, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and last
approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease,
which, for want of careful investigation of its real cause, has been
set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work,
be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young per-
sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con-
sumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth
Mach more frequently than it is at all suspected.

JON THE
.GIN of BARRICADES.
Barricades derive their origin from the liberal ideas
which sprung up during the middle ages, and appeared
during the revolution of the eleventh century, which
" by emancipating a portion of
constituted the " Ticrs etat
the e!2ildreu of the Gallic soil from the yoke of the
Frank race. It was, in fact, the most efficacious forti-
cation that could be opposed to the men at arms sent
into the towns by the nobles and tho ecclesiastical Lords.
We shall Lot undertake to describe the innumerable
scenes in which barricades played a most conspieuvee
part in our provinces during the course of feudal
struggles, but shall follow their rise and progress in the
capital, where they did not make their appearance
-ulna
a very late period. Paris, kept in awe by the great
tower of the Louvre and the Royal power, did not at-
tempt until the middle of the kirteenth century to conquer
the municipal privileges whose liberating charter was
denied it by Royalty. In the year 1358, during the
captisity of King John in England, the bad conduct of
the favourites of the Dauphin Charles, their wont of
deference of the counsels given to them by the States
General, drove the Parisian people to desperation.
Etienne Marcel, provost of the tradespeople, had then
the idea of barring each corner of the street with strong
chains passing through a ring, which fixed them across
the street and fastened them on the other side with an
iron hook. These chains remained at the angles of the
streets since the time of the Dauphin Charles until the
year 1358, at which time the Dukes of Anjou, Beer.
gougne, and Berry, uncles of the King Charles VI., de-
prived the Parisians of them, to prevent their offering
any resistance to their horrible exactions. Some years
afterwards John the " Fearless" had the chains brought
back from the castle of Vincennes and returned to the
Parisians. This restitution was very soon taken advan-
tage of, and the chains were in frequent use during the
dissensions of the Armagais and the Bourguignons.
In 1436 the Parisian people, exasperated by the ty-..
ranny of the English, roso with fury at the same tires
as the men at arms of the " Connetable de Richemonase
were penetrating into the town. Tiles, earthenvenre,
furniture, is hurled from every window on the char.npion
of the " Leopard," whose progress is arrested on ail sides
by the barriers erected suddenly, and Paris recovers, if
not its liberty, at least its national independence.
We must now pass over a long interval before we find
any more mention made of barricades—we do not
see them rise until a century and a half later, to
consummate the lines of the last of the Valois, Henry
the Third. This great event took place on the 12th of
May, 15S8. The reign of Henry the Fourth and tlass
despotism of the Cardinal of Richelieu prevented the
recurrence of popular outbreaks. But after the death of
Louis XIII., the arbitrary administration of Ar.n of
Austria, and the insolent pillages of Maaarin and 'of his
greedy courtiers, caused the long-impending storm to
break forth. One hundred thousand Parisituas rose in
arms behind two thousand barricades. "They were,"
say the records of those times, " built with so much art,
that the entire strength of the realm put together would
not have been capable of forcing them." The pride of
the Court was humbled by the pikes of the burgher
guard, rallied to the populous shades of the "Belile"
and the Place Maubert. From the reign of Louis XIV,
barricades disappeared entirely; even the terrible voice
of 'B9 did not wake them up, the 14th of July and the
10th of August did not accept their dreaded aid. In
1830 they rose suddenly, and drove legitimacy from the
French soil. During the days of the sth and 6th of
June, 1832, they made a most formidable appearance,
and demonstrated all the power of democratic ideas. In
February, 184 S, the republic rose triumphant from the
barricades established by the valiant people of Paris.
