stranger more forcibly on going to Scotland, than the
short gowas worn by the females of the lower orders'
of society, and their feet without stockings or shoes, in
wet -sod dirty weather. Both the dress and the un-
dress present a disagreeable appearance. As English
female woaW feel ashamed and disgraced beyond ma-
son, la such a situation, even is a country village,
much more in a large town. We must not infer from
this that the people of that country are alike iadilfer-
ens to appearance and to actual cleanliness. As as in-
stance to the contrary, we have only to remark, that
an ensineat ntsslia manufacturer in Glasgow, has re-
cently erected an. elegant Mansion, in which we are
told, he has introduced ao less than twenty-eve
water-closets, to the great womb* of the Water Work
Company of that city, who serer dreamt of having so
many outlets for their water.
