MADAME CELESTE•

-
We regret to bear that we shall ere long lose for a
while from the English stage the accomplished di-
rectress of the Adelphi Theatre. Madame Celeste is
about shortly to pay a professional visit to the United
States, where her transcendent talents are well known
and appreciated, and where she will meet with the
hearty welcome with which a public favourite is
always greeted. Her repertoire will, if we mistake
not, be in a great part new to the United States; the
character of Miami, for example, which she has per-
formed at the Adelphi Theatre alone nearly 400
nights, and which still continues to attract crowded
houses, is we believe new to our Transatlantic
brethren. They, of all men, will best appreciate the
intensely impassioned acting of Madame Celeste in
the character of the Indian Girl. If none can de-
scribe the Indian like Cooper, none can act the
Indian like Madame Celeste.

THE " BLOOMER" CosTums.—The economical ar-
gument is a common one with all reformers, from those in-
terested in forms of government, to others who tell of the
advantages of water drinking. The Bloomers handle it
with delight, and hope, doubtless, to produce a powerful
effect upon husbands and fathers. A lady writing to the
Pittsburgh Advertiser, enters into an arithmetical computa-
tion :—" There are eight millions of women in these United
States old enough to wear the new costume. At a low esti-
mate it costs each female twelve dollars a year for dresses
and skirts on an average ; now, a neat and appropriate short
dress, with suitable and substantial pants, may be made of
the same material, and save one quarter of the present ex-
pense—(we have tried it at home and know it can be done).
This will be a saving of—of—open your eyes, unstop your
ears, and hold your breath—twenty-four millions of dollars!
My stars! [" My stays!" would,be a more appropriate ex-
clamation. Such a saving would build a school-house in
every district in the United States worth two hundred
dollars, and leave four millions to buy cheap calico frocks
and shoes for all the poor little girls in the nation."—Weekly

IMPORTANT TO CORRESPONDENTS WITH AMERICA.
—We deem it useful to remind all who are in the habit of
writing letters to the United States of the necessity of
adding on the addresses of their letters the names of the
county and the state to the name of the locality. The uti-
lity of this is evident from the fact that there are in the
United States 25 localities called Washington ; 24 called
Franklin
Springfield ; 25, Centerville ; 19,
; 23, Salem; 22.
Jackson, 15 ; Jefferson ; 18, La Fayette ; 10, Fillmore (the
name of the present President); 14, Troy ; 9, Kossuth ; 10,
Lowell; 20, Richmond; 18, Waterloo; 22, Colombia; 18,
Concord, &c.; all scattered over the Union, and at immense
agave' flcra each other.--Daily Evros,
