ADVICE TO YOUNG LADIES.

Always have as large number Of beaux
around you as possible. Play one off a.
galnst another, yet manage TO make each
one believe .ha. you are devolediy attach
ed 10 him. Anglers always catch more
fish with three hooks than one.
Trust more TO your eyes than your
tongue and more to your dress than eth.
er. Lovers look only on the surface
when married they take peep beneath
but your market is made then-you are
theirs : for better or for worse and they
can't help'i.
If sui.or abandons you swear that you
discarded him. Say that he was a fool
and you could no. endure him, or rogue,
and your father refused him. Say any
thing but the trulh-and swear to every
thing you say, and your family and friends
will also swear 10 it as mater OF course.
II is wicked to lie-but then young la
dy's prospects are injured by having it
lamord abroad that she is a rejected Que.
At eighteen, fyou are pretty, you may
look for husband in a higher rank than
your own. At.wenty marry an equal, a.
thirty an inferior, if you are sure Of good
bed and board; a! thirty FIVE, any body
you can get.
Never allow your affections to be enga.

Extrac, Of letter from Presbyterian Clergyman to tho Ed.
tor of The Tribune;
\ word or two on the subject of Az
ISOLATION. You advocate this boldly and frankly.
There are some good faithful Minister'S of the
Gospel, vino have fears that the A=sociationsis
arc aiming blow at the foundation Of Morals
and Religion. What are the grounds on which
such fears arise, for one have not been able 10
discover. The object at which AssocIationists
aim, if rightly understand it, is Gre of the no
bcst and grandcst that the mind OF man can cor
ceivc and cannot but feel tina: it is the duty Of
every good man to pray 70: its speedy accom-
pshmcnt That the evils Of our Social system
are great, and in their tendency rulnous 10 the
highcs, happiness Of man, have long hecn con-
vlnccd; and the contemplation OF them has
caused me many a sad and sprrowful hour.
When have seen men wasting The best enar-
gies ni their souls in overrcaching and deiraudlng,
= nitirg and devouring one another" have wrpi
over tue Supreme sol;ishness Of the human heart,
aud in the anguish OF my spirit have sad. that
if could find on earth community oi iner:
who really aud absolutely loved God and loreG
one gno'der would 60 and il'ng myself into the
midst Of them, and beg permission there to 1--we
and there to die. | would fam hope that such i;
community may yet be realized on earth coin
munity where peace and hope, harmony and love,
faith and charity, may dwell together, and the
true destiny OF man he developed as God design
ed in his creation.
