DEAR BESxETT-Do for Heavens sake blow up
those lovely women who have cut their dresses on
above their knees for the purpose Of showing their
pretty petticoats,
And oblige yours, &c.
Blow up the pretty women We will do no such
barbarous piece Of work. We don't how high
they cut their dresses-or il they choose TO show the
whole Of their pretty petticoats. Several beautiful
young ladies have appeared in Broadway in these
short dresses, and the very novelty OF their taste
creases the interest they naturally excite az well as
gives them disfinguf air We are in favor Of all
gradual change in drapery. An invariable fashion
in every thing is the mark Of imbecility OF mind
Every thing is changing around us-the beauty and
delight Of day, night summer, winter autumn spring.
all consist in change. The charms Of the wild woods
and the bsauteous wales spring from their gradual
change in color, complexion, and drapery. Why
should not the ladies follow the great principle Of
nature-the very essence Of the divinity who has
given the principle Of change to every species Of
creature7
Blow up the lovely women indeed! Catch US at
that if you can.

ADJOURNMENT OF THE IEcIsLATURR.-The Lee

o'clock, after session OF 12t days.
The number Of laws passed during the session is
large $780, but the acts of public importance may be
said to lie in nutshel Indeed, rccollect at this
bills; concerning foreign hank notes; concerning

the circumstances we have stated. They were not

The bill to authorize the construction Of the New
York and Erie Rail Read by the State, was rejected
in the Senate after full discussion in both houses
the bill not being IN shape to receive the votes Of
all who were in favor of the measure in some form.
The Senate rose and reported the bill TO reduce
the sire and cost Of the Erie Canal Enlargement to
six feet by sixty, Mondays but not able usder

brought to a vote, we do not doubt that a decided

The third act Of the interesting drama Of "The

Female Moral Reform Society; and the perfor-
nanses were Of the most interesting and recherche
character. The Church was not quite full, and
there were but few parsons present; but there were
at least 400 or 500 very beautiful women there, who
seemed to take great interest in the proceedings,
most Of whom we're unmarried and under 70 years

Fayrer was ready to sail from Liverpool on the 10th

from six ladies and nine gentlemen who insisted on
having passages, although he assured them he was
