EDUCATION OF FEMALES.

i
Since there is 4 season when the
youthful must cease to be young, and
the beautiful to excite admiration to
learn to gv0,0 old gracefully, is per-
haps one Of the rarest and most valua-
bic arts that can be taught to women.
And, it must be confessed, it is most
severe trial for those women to Law
down beauty, who have nothing else
to take up. It is for this sober reason
of life that education should Law up its
rich resources. However disregarded
they may have been, they will be want
ed now.
When admirers fall away, and fat
terers become mute, the mind will be
driven to retire into itself, and if it find
no entertainment at home, it will be
driven back again upon the world with
increasing force. Yet, forgetting this,
do we not seem to educate our daugh-
sers exclusively for the transient peri
cd Of youth. Do we not educate them
for crowd and not for themselves
for show and not for use? for time and
not for eternity. MRS. Moore.

There are two sorts of these internal

GEORGE WASHINGTON.

The Baltimore Patriot gives the fol-
lowing interesting statement in rela-
ton to the appearances exhibited by
the remains of General Washington,
upon their removal from the vault to
the sarcophagus: 80
"Ihe remains of this illustrious man
the fatherand the savior of his coun-
try, were recently placed in the sarco-
phagns made by Mr.. Struthers Of this
city, from whom we,learo, that when
the vault and coffin were. opened,
"where they had lain him." the sacred
form of WASHINGTON, was discov-
cred in wonderful state of preserva-
ton. The high, pale. brow bore calm
and serene expression; and the solemn
smile, such as he doubtless wore, when
the First President gave up his blame
less mortal life, for an immortal exis-
tenee-
aWhen his soft breath with pain,
Was yielded TO the elements again.''

PENNSYLVANIA CONVENTION.

PENNSYLVANIA CONVENTION.
The Judiciary question has been
settled-the tenure being altered 10
terms Of ten years for the presiding
judges of common pleas, and fifteen
years for the supreme court. The Pen
nsylvanian says, that .'the terms are
longer than desired by the friends OF
reform, but still it is great triumph
over the advocates of the irresponsible
life tenure" The convention have
determined to adjourn over, to re-as-
semble at Philadelphia.

"Nero fddle ,chile Rome ,yos burn
ing"-The Wings are about trying
to get up facsimile of this exhilera-
ting spectacle. While our streets are
comparatively thronged with industri-
Gus citizens who cannot procure en-
ployment to support themselves and
families-while hundreds Of wretched
widows are languishing in sickness
and poverty-while fahishing chill
dren are shivering from door to door,
begging scanty morsel Of broken vic
tuals-the Wings propose to riot amid
the ruin their baleful arts have spread
throughout the country, and expend
thousands on thousands in rejoicing at
the triumph Of aristocracy and menda-
city over industry and independence.
They even have the assurance to call
upon the proprietors of public places
to join with them in their shameless
orgies; but we are confident they will
find that there is too much sense of
propriety among these gentlemen to
give the slightest countenance to their
proceedings. We trust, for the credit
ofhuman nature, they will forego their
purpose, and appropriate the enormous
fund they have secured, to more holy
and beneficial object.-[N. Y. News.

mer, 90 that in the shade no one is in
eommoded by perspiration; they also
soften the rigois Of winter, and pro-
duce such moderation in the climate,
that the inhabitants can wear the same
dress throughout the year.
The soil in the neighborhood Of the
sea coast is of a brown color, inclining
to red, and generally poor, being mix
ture Of clay and gravel. In the inte-
rior, and especially in the valleys Of
the Rocky Mountains, the soil is gen
orally blackish; though sometimes yel-
low. It's frequently mixed with mart
and marine substances, in state of de-
composition. This kind of soil ex.
tends to considerable depth, as may
be perceived in deep cuts made by ra-
vines, and by the beds of rivers. The
vegetation in these valleys is much
more abundant than near the coast: in
fact, it is in these fertile intervals, lock-
ed up between rocky sierras, or scoop
ed out from barren wastes, that popu-
lation must extend itself, as it were, in
veins and ramifcations, if ever the re-
gions beyond the mountains should be-
come civilized.-[Irving's Astoria.

1T is with unteigned regret, that |
Il thrust my private affairs upon the
notice Of the public. But a just re-
gard for my reputation compels me
thus publicly to put the seal Of false
hood upon a slanderous and malicious
report, propogated and circulated by
one Job Mason, accusingme Of having
been guilty OF stealing a runaway ne
gro from the quarter Of Benjamin Lee
fore, and selling him in Alabama 10
one Blake b. Jones, during the fall of
the year 1885. Upon what founda-
tlonthat report was based will be seen
from the certificates inserted below.
That it sprung from a malicious and
corrupt heart, l iUas gell dmare, and
50 long as it was confined to the prop
cation OF aman alike destitute Of honor
as well as the principles Of moral hon
esty, an outlaw, was contentto treat
it with that silent contempt which my
approved as the only notice
III merited. But when to my astonish-
ment | learned that my silence was
construed by other individuals of stan
ding and responsibility in the eyes Of
the community INTO an acqniescence
onmy part, in the truth of the charge,
| felt myself called on by every con-
slderation 'orescue my character from
the disgrace and degradation which
such charge, if true. would innict on
me and my family. Under these cir
cumstance, | sent an agent to Alabama
where the negro was alledged to have
been sold, who procured The following
certificates. which | hatter myself will
eilectually disaprointthe malice of my
enemies, and confirm me in the good
opinion of my friends,

Qa-The Hon. John Branch, former
amcmber ciGe0. Jackson's cabinet,
and lately taken into favor by the Van
Buren, party of North Carolina, thus
speaks Of the follower in the footsteps
in a speech in tie State Senate.
~ believed then that Mr.. Van Bu-
rem placed too low an estimate on die
virtue, patriotism and intelligence of
an American people, and that his reli-
ance on Gen. Jackson to accomplish
his purposes would prove delusive.
He must recollect that often told him
that, in my opinion, he was selling his
birthright, like Esau, for a mess Of pot
tage; that Gen. Jacksons popularity
great as it was, was attached to the
man, and could not be transferred. /
then honestly believed what | said.
But, sir, | was again mistaken. His
skirts have proved strong enough to
bear Mr.. Van Buren, into the Vice
Presidency, and recent indications
have induced me to fear that the coun-
try is sufficiently corrupt to enable
him through the patronage ofthc Go
vernment, toreach the great object OF
his ambition. If so, it will be proof
conclusive that the day Of this Repub-
lie are numbered, and that this once

ready to bow the knee TO Baal, and
pass their nccks underline yoke Of bon,
