The MIDDLE CLAssEs.-Although,
throughout Christendom, there is
portion Of the people designated as be-
longing to the middle classes, there
would doubtless, be very different de-
fnitions of this term given by differ
ent persons, and in the different coun-
tries where 1t is applied. Perhaps the
simplest and most correct one is that
which describes the middle classes as
composed of those persons who possess
a'capital, eitherin moneys worth or ed :
ucation, but are yet obliged to work for
their npai,nainance. This body is dis
tinguisI,ed from the aristocratic or pri-
vaeged class, which lives, or can live,
upon Income from capital, without
work, and from the laboring class,
strictly speaking, which subsists by
daily labor, and possesses little or no
capital.

FAsH1oN.-Among the decided i'm
provements of the day, when consump-
tive diseases are so rife in our climate,
is that of the dress of our ladies of fash
ion. Display is not so paramount an
object as in times past. Fragllity is
not so much invogue. Sentiment can
feed on a cheek of rose as we'll as on
the lily, and without the establishment
ola hectic cou IN. Bright eyes, waist
of healthful proportions, and firm e.
lastic tread, take rather more with the
Young lords of creation than the pen
sive and sickly languor of other times.
Even a foot never looks so attractive
on wet day as when eveloped in an
india rubber shoe-and warm cloak
on a cold one, nantes the more grace,
fully around the form, as it leaves the
IMAGINATION to dwell upon its supposed
charms, of which it must be owned the
drawing room too often does not Tvo
Worlds.

POPPING THE QUESTION.

I told her that her marble brow,
O'er which her auburn locks were straying,
Was like q drift Of purest snow,
Where golden sunset rays are playing,
told her that her soft blue eyes
Would shame the brightest spheres of heaven,
That walk the chambers of the skies
. Upon moonless summer even.
1 swore no sunny cloud could vie,
In snowy softness, with her bosom;
And that her cheeks had stole their dye
From wild rose and magnolia blossom
vowed that unto her alone
My burning heart had worship given;
L hat should she on its homage frown,
:lwould then to dark despair be driven.
And then gazed upon her form,
And pressed her small W hitc hand with fervor
And asked her if, mid calm and storm,
She would be mine, and mine forever
And I swore I'd keep my vows,
AS true as rule, or square, or plummet
But-she placed her finger on her nose,
And told me that-''I couldn't come it -

There is no life on earth bat being in love!
There are no studies, no delights, no business,
No intercourse, or trade Of sense, or soul,
But what is love! was the LATEST creature
The most improbable sign of nothing,
The veriest drone, and slept away my Ee
Beyond the dormouse till l was in love!
And now can out-wake the nightingale,
Out-watch an ursurer and out-walk him too,
Stalk like ghost that haunted bout treasure !;
And all that fancied treasure ii is love.

NINA BihIe controversy.

The True Delta imputes TO us want OF courage

for want of courtesy in publishing an article in

unpleasant duty.

Hoso Mr.. SOule's Course IS Regarded Else
aohere.-The Richmond Enquirer, of the position
and character of which old democratic journal it is
needless for to say any thing thus remarks upon
the course of Mr.. Soul6;
No one can regret this unbecoming course in
MIR. Soue more than we do. He has been great
favorite Of ours-and we have admired his splendid
'oratory and courteous and chvalric bearing in the
Senate We have hung delighted on the eloquence
of his lips, and gowed with interest in his manly
department and admirable respect for himself and
for Others in scenes Of excitement. 1t is a matter
of little pain therefore, that this feeling has been
essentially modified by Mr.. SIS bearing, since he
reached New Orleans. 1t cannot be the offspring
OF his own faellngs-he must have acted under bad
counsel His speech, the night of his arrival in
New Orleans was the first deviation from his equa-
bic course. Not satisfied with defending his own
conduct in the Senate he went out of his way to
assail the press, which had differed with him, and
foreign-born as he is, to denounce the Yankee"
population of New Orleans. The excitement con
tinues-and the temper shown by him, in the fol-
lowing correspondence, is deeply to be regretted.
He, moreover, takes the untenabe ground that, as
an American Senator, he properly wrap him
SEX IN his robes OF authority and refuse to enlghten
his constituents upon the most momentous ques-
ton that ever engaged the anxious reflections of a
patriot He refuses to answer the interrogatory of
his party friends, men of the highest Tespecta.
biity and character whether he is for or against a
dis olution of the Union, on account of the late
action of Congress- Candor and manly boldness,
we had thought characterized Mr. Soule-we
regret that the course, he has thought proper to
pursue, is calculated to weaken his influence and
to check his rapid progress in public favor and
honor.
