.The practice of proc uring beautiful female
TO attend stores, f The purpose OF att a ,nhS
custom is getting very prevalent IN this
c;tv. II should be secuted by every high
minded father, and virtuous wife AMI
daughter" Itappears TO us that our friends
are making a great outcry, against shad,
ow There is no harm in any high.minded
woman's attending to any reputable bust
ness suitable to her sex--and such we con
ce;ve attendance on retail dry goods and
f,ncy stores. Men might be better employ;

This awful occurrence should teach the
community tie immense importance of the
character of a steamboat. After the wanton
disregard Of life evinccd by the captain of
this boat some weeks ago at Vickshnrg, by
which ten or twelve persons were diowncd.
not n single individual, who had any regard
for hi life, should have ventured on that same
boat while under such re- kless commander.
A man who would refuse to bring his boat To
for the purpose oflanding dozen individuals,
would not scruple to run race with two
hundred passengers on board, and fire his
boat by the red heat Of his boilers. The Ben
Shcrrod had been on fire twice during the
race on that same night, previous To the final
conlagralion.
