PEARL FISHERIES.

The beautiful belle, gtterinr in her pearls, at
tracing the admiration and elicitins the praise and
flattery of fashionable society, little considers the
pam it costs some Of her fellow-creatures to pro-
cure the trfiing bauble that decorates and adds
lustre to her person. We say, that decorates and
adds Iustre to her person, because in this light,
tinseled garments and superiluous embellishments
are viewed. But to the man of correct and polish
ed taste, the fair damscl. aided by other charms
than those that nature has bountifully endow cd
her, presents an object thousand times more love-
lNsAnd attractive, than she of artificial beauties.
iffe gem of the mind the intellectual gem lis the
brightest and most precious jewel that woman can
wear-i. has hundred charms
"a damask cheek and ivory arm,
Shall ne'er my wishes win;
Give animated form,
That speaks mind Within
When once we'll polished like the diamond, its
lustre is permanent. 1t is this gen. and this alone
that can supply natural defects. Beauty of per-
son passeth away and where is it But beauty Of
mind standeth the wreck Of time--increasing in bril-
iancy with our years, like the regning emperor of
day, it sheds its cheernsly beneficial rays on all
surrounding objects. " Personal beauty may iasci-
nate the nconsiderate for day but like the cph-
emerat flower, it fades and leaves none OF its for.
mer delights; while beauty OF mind increases with
aye, and will be bright in the evening o! liie.''-'
The lowly violet, though contrastcd with the bean
ty of the rose, has modesty and charms: so has
the cultivated mind. though the person may be de-
ficient in external beauties. But did mt in
tend writing an essay on beauty, our subject is the
pearl fisheries.
The pearl is generally found in the she'll, though
not unfrequently within the body Of large kind
of oysters. 1t has been imagined by some, and
perhaps not without reason, that this sh,ning lit
lie gem proceeds from disease in the Ssh. The
concrete matter which lines the inside ct the she
that covers it, is composed of the same substances
as the pearl, aud is therefore called the mother o
