The steamer Raphael Rivers is already plying on
the same river as far up as the point mentioned
In regard to the improvement at Panama, the
Star says
Perhaps there is no place on the Pacific where
so great change has been made in so short time
as in our city. But few months ago, tenements
which were in total decay-sans roof sans doors,
sans windows and hoors-and which might have
been had for the mere asking have been thoroughly
renovated and repaired, aud now command from
500 TO 5000 per month. -

LATER FROM FIRE IsLAND.-We have lust had
visit from gentleman who left Fire Island on
Friday evening. The fragments of mans BODY
have been thrown ashore on the beach near he
lighthouse, but it was impossible to recognize
them. The ribs were bare, and from the marks of
teeth upon them, it is supposed that the body had
been mangled by sharks. The fragments were
decently inferred.

SMALL SWEET CoURTEsrEs OF LILE.-I
want to tell you secret. The way to make
yourselfpleasing to others, is to show that you
care for them. The whole world is like the
miller at Mansfield, "who cared for nobody
no, not he-because nobody cared for him. !"
And the world will serve you so, if you give
them the same cause Let every one there
fore see, that you care for them by showing
them, what Sterne so happily calls, "the
small sweet courtesies in which there is no
parade; whose voice is too still to tease, and
which manifest themselves by tender and
afectionate loohs, and little kind acts of at
tention-giving others the preferencein every
little enjoyment at the table, in the field,
walking, sitting, and standing" This is the
spirit that gives to your time OF life, and to
your sex, its sweetest charms, Itconst:tutes
the sum total of the witchcraft of woman.
Let the world see that your first care is for
yourself, and you will spread the solitude of
the Upas tree around you, in the same way,
by the emanaton Of poison which kills all
the juices Of affection in its neighborhood. -
Such girl may be admired for her under
standing and accomplishments but she never
vii! be loved
The seeds oflove can never grow but under
the warm and genial influence OF kind feel
ings and afectionate manners. Nivacity
goes great way in young persons. 1t calls
attention to her who displays it; and, il it
then be found associated with a generous
sensibihty, its execution is irresistible.
On the contrary if it be found in alliance
with cold, naughty, selfish heart, it produces
no further effect, than an adverse one. At
tend to this my daughter, 1t flows from the
heart that feels for you all the anxiety pa
rent can feel; and not without hope which
constitutes the parents highest happiness
may God protect and bless you.
Your afectionate Father,
WIN. Writ.

day, the frock coats are always made with
short skirts--the dr:ss coats with pointed
basgues and high collar. The pantaloons,
of green maroon, gray and blue drap dc etc,
with large stripes or bands, are much in
favor, The linen drill is not SO much worn

here for it,
Hats with high form and broad brim, Of

Boots and CATERS are made in pointed
