A CHAPTER ON HATS.

There is no people SO ingenious at expedi-
ents as the Yankees. A Yankee editor down
in Lowell, who ought to know all about it, gives
Us chapter on the uses of hats, which Is very
good in It's way, though the custom spoken of
is not so strictly a New England one as repre-
scented. at would never says the aforesaid
Yankee editor, 'senter the heads OF persons out
of New England to use their hats for any otner
purpose than as a covering for their heads. In
other parts of the globe, when a man bows
graciously to a friend, he takes off his hat
Sucha custom cannot be adopted here; for a
mans hat is his pocket-book, his satchel, his
pantry, his clothes bag, his tool chest, or his Sc
gar box, as occasion may require; and if he
should shake of his hat IN hurry, aWkwark
circumstances must needs ensue. We once
knew a young gentleman, who, having par-
chased dozen eggs for his mother, forthwith
popped them into his hat. On his way home
he met pretty girl with whose charms he
had long been snlitten, and wishing TO be par
ticulariy polite, he took of his hat, preparatory
to making the low bow. The twelve eggs,
obeying the laws Of gravitation, were preclpl-
tated to the pavement, and instantly smashed
to atoms; and the beautiful white garment OF
the astonished girl was bespattered with the
yolks. she never forgave hun.
How often, during Wtiidy udys W We seS Z
hatless wight chasing a cloud Of papers, which
have made their escape, and are borne away on
the wings of tine wind.
1t has been remarked by foreigners that the
natives of New England are generally round
shouldered. This is undoubtedly owing to the
enormous weight which they carry on then
heads. A lawyer IS seldom seen with green
bag ia his hand. HIS legal documents, and
sometimes his law books, are deposited IN ms
hat. A physicians hat is not nnireqnently ar
apotheeary's shop in miniature; merchant
hat is crammed with samples of merchandise
and a stage drivers hat is stuffed with bundles
and packages. A person about to make {
short Journey seldom burthens himself with {
trunk, but takes a change of apparel in his hat
/ a late member of the Massachusetts, legislature
represented a town not more than twenty mile
from Boston, always carried his dinner to tn
State House In his hat: and we have seldom
seen the hat Of an editor, which was not stffe
with damp newspapers, stolen paragraphs, an
unanswered duns.o
