Interesting to the Ladiss.-The
Journal of Health strongly recon-
mends simple soap and water. as the
best wash for preserving the complex
ion, instead Of the thousand varieties
Of cosmetic lotions, whichare so much
used. There are five bcauti6ers Of the
skin, viz :--personal cleanliness, regu-
lar exercise, temperance, pure air, and
cheerful temper. Let all pouting
beauties ponder on this. The Journal
puts its refo on the use Of distilled Iiq-
nor Cologne water, &c. and insists
that 90 use them for a wash, is to de-
s'soy the suppiencss, transparency aud
smo"oness ofthe skin, and to cover it
WIN unsee,nly blotchcs.

TIE LAND OF OUR BIRTH.

There is not spot in this wide peoFled earth
So dear to the heart is the land Of our birth:
IT'S the home of our childhood the beautiful spot
Which mem'ry retains when all else is forgot.
May the blessing Of God
Ever hallow the sod,
And its yallies and hills by our children be trod.
Can the language Of strangers, in accents unknown,
Send thrii TO our bosom like that of our owni
The face may be fair, and the smile may be bland,
But il breaihs not the of our dear native land!
There's no spot earth
Like the land of our birth,
Where herons keep guard Ger the altar and hearth!
How sweet is the language which taught us TO blond
The dear names of parent, of husband and friend,
Which taught us 10 lisp on our mothers soft breast,
Tho ballads she sung she rock d US to rest.
May the blessing of God
Ever hallow the sod,

May her daughters in beauty and virtue excel;
May their beauty and worth

BISHOP ENGLAND.

Previous to the late city election, the able and
eloquent Catholic Bishop England of Charleston,
assured, through the medium of the newspapers, an
address to the Roman Catholic citizens of Charles
ton, with view to guard them against the prava
lent evils of time of much excitement. IL N
written with great ability. He exhorts his brettret
to exercise their civil privileges conscientiousy
examine the intricate questions agitatiug South
Carolina, for themselves, and TO act according 70
their best Judgment He warns them against i'm
proper influences, against intemperance, brawls and
riots. 1t IS powerful appeal to the moral and re
ligious feeling of his brethren, and might be read
with great benefit by others besides those whom the
Bishop addresses. We quote the following passage.
Spirit Of the Age
"Of all the spectacles which are humlatng to
the inst pride of an honest republican, | know ui
no one so calling, to behold his fellow citizens
debased by paltry bride to procure the ruin of that
dstrbutive justice which alone is the great conser
IVatiye principle of our free institutions: know no
being degraded in the yest slavery, as the miser
able wretch, who wears the semblance of freeman
sells the invaluable inheritance of the community
entrusted to his guardianship, for such paltry bride
is forms the wages of such prostitution in city
| Let no one speak TO me of the existence of one
principle of religion in such traitor! He has no
love of God. Ii is an ennobling quality which de
coratcs the SOUL assmulates the inhabitants of earth
to the bright and ardent Sc aph that glows in affec
ton before the eternal throne of the Creator: this
love Of God is the spirit Of religions il lifts man a.
hove the earth, brings him to heaven and in
lspres him with the holy ambition Of being perfect
as his heavenly father is perfect. No--Speak moi
TO of the existence of religion in that fallen and
ptable being, who for such despcable compensa-
ton, betrays his conscience, if he have any, to re
morse, his country to the ambition of the criminal
who purchased him. and his soul to the power of the
minister of divine vengeance #-.s'...r

PoHiRx


Aow bright s tho scene when the autumn sun glowing
Spreads richness and plenty Ger mountain and vale,
when the orchards and elds their ripe fruits besownR
And the harvest hymn Goats the breath of the gale!
And while the gay season hearts fondly cherish,
Still shaded in sadness its visions appear
For thew tell us Of beauty which boomed but TO perish,
The beauty which passed with the fnfantiie Year!
Where now those sweets which fond nature dscoses,
When first she assumes her gay mantle of greenl
when Spring decks the fields with her garands of roses,
Or Summers bright verdure enlivens the scenes
They are passed, and like beauty by age superseded.
Cav autumn has left them all withered and sere!
They have fed one by one, oil unwept and unheeded,
Too frail to abide with the full Ripening Year.
But bright is the livery which autumn is spreading,
To garnsh the fields where the early flowers grewl
A harder race their rich perfumes are spreading,
OF growth more majestic and rudier hue
The fields and the brooks and the hedges bordered
With heritage and flowers to the autumn wind drear;
While the plants with rich cornelds and vineyards EN-
bordered,
Exult IN the pride Of the Bountiftl Year
And see through the woodlands what hues extending
As midst the sere foliage the arid winds blowl
How the CRIMSON the gold and the scarlet are blending
And the purple, the green, and the orange tnis glow
But false those coors, whose endor thus heghens
The charms which fast vergng to ruin appear;
As the heciics deep blush of the dying cheek brghiens
They but the flight Of tho fastening Year!
For shall the flowers to rude trosis be subjected
The orchards and fields their late Joys shall depore;
The herbage shall die the plants unprotected,
And nature looks gladstone and smiling no more!
And soon shall the long tedious night be prevailing,
The sun to the tropics shall speed his career;
While through the bare woodlands the piercing wind wall
ing,
Commence the sad moan for the Languishing Year.
