WHICH IS THE FLAG STATE?

The New York Commercial remarks:
there is likely to be some strife as TO
which of the wing states is to claim the
National Flag, which is TO be awarded to
that which gives the highest majority in
proportion to the whole amount OF its vote
Rhode Island, the other day stood the best
chance for it. But Vermont, with swell
of fifteen thousand, now talks of claim
ing. Boston is the flag city-she having
given the largest majority for Harrison.
Vermont whether the flag state or not, has
the flag county-one of her counties hav-
ing beaten Genesee. Every county in.
Vermont, moreover. has cast a majority
for Harrison. Such also is the fact in
Delaware, with the addition that not a
single Van Buren, man has been eleeted to
the legislature. But there are soiue little
spots even brighter i'll the Mississippi
country. In one town in the state of Mis-
sisSippi only one solitary vote was cast for

DEATH FROM TIGHT LACING

j have seen, and am much pleased with
your paper, and doubt not it will do much good.
| hope for it an extensive circulation. In
one-of your late numbers you call for facts,
whether communicated in elegant language
or not. / have recently learned, one to which
gave all possible publicity, and have told it
in almost every circle of the young, in which
have since found myself. Two weeks since,
while on visit to the house Of respectable,
long experienced physician, in one of the
southern bou ndary towns in New Hampshire,
he gave me in substance the following account
as as | can recolect.
He was called week or two previous. TO
visit young female, / think over twenty
years of age, who was distressingly i'll of &
complaint of the lungs, laboring under great
difficulty of breathing, which his discrimiDa-
ton led him at once to impute to long contin-
ued practice of tight lacing-a practice which
lis Staying its thousands and tens of thousands
in our enlightened land. There was, in his
opinion, an adhesion of the lungs to the chest,
and consequent Inflammation, which haa
proceeded to such height that death was In
evitable. Little or nothing could be done.
The poor girl, after few days of acute suf-
fering, fell a victim to-(what shall say!
am unwilling TO wound the feelings of her
/ friends -her own folly and vanity. 1t could
not be suicide, because no such result was con-
tempated, though the deed was done by her
own hand. We can call it by no softer name
| than seLf-slaughter, for such even an external
examination of the body proved it to have
! been.
The shoulder blades were found to be liter
ally Tapped one over the other; the false ribs
had been SO compressed, that the space of only
about an inch and half remained between
them; and so great was the curvature of the
spine, whic! had been girded in by the cords
of death, that after the corpse was laid out for
interment, two pillows were put under the
arch thereby formed, while the shoulders res
ted on the board. She was large healthy
person, and was ignoranty led, by the desire
to please, to sacrifice her life at the shrine of
fashion and the prevailing false ideas of beau
ty of form. She was said to be of ami1ble
disposition and correct moral habits, other
wise.
Ny own mind was so impressed with the
recital Of tits story, that could hardly for
bear weeping over the folly, weakness, ignor-
ance, and wickedness of my sex. / inwardly
wished for the ability 10 ring this case of suf-
fering ard death in the ears of every female
in our land, until they voluntarily assumed
''strait jackets" that Indicate nothing better
than mental alteration in the wearers, should
be voluntarily thrown aside.

POETRY.

From the knicker6ocher, for November.
TIE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH.
Ply H. w. LONGFELLow.
Under 4 spreading chestnut tree
The village smithy stands;
The smith, mighty man is he,
With large and sinewy hands;
And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as iron bands.
His hair is crisp, aud black, and long;
His face is like the tan;
HIS brow is wet with honest sweat;
He earns whate'er he can,
And looks the whole world in the face,
For he owes not any man.
Week out, week in, from morn till night,
You can hear his bellows blow;
You can hear him swing his heavy s'edge,
With mea sured beat and slow,
Like 4 sexton ringing the old kirk chimes
When the evening sun is low.
And children coming home from school
Look in at the open door;
They love to see the flaming forge,
And hear the bellows roar,
And catch the burning sparks that fly
Like chatf from q threshing floor.
lie goes on Sunday to the church,
And sits among his boys;
lie hears the parson pray and preach,
He hears his daughters voice,
Singing in the village choir,
And it makes his heart rejoice.
1t sounds to him like her mothers voice,
Singing on Paradise!
He needs must think of her once moe,
How in the grave she lies;
And with his hard rough hands he wipes
A tear from out his eyes.
IoIling-rcjoicing-
Onward through life lie goes:
Each morning sees some task begin,
Each evening secs it close;
S,mefhino empted-something DONE
u.s earned nights repose.

ksson thou hast taught
