Ladies, one word.

- NATURE has blessed Most
young ladies with beautiful feet,
but their fair proportions are
marred most grievously by unskillful workmen
in preparing coverings for them. We have
seen this with grief, andare happy to annbunce
that a beautiful foot can be made more beaurl-
.ful, and those deficient in form can be made
appear full Of grace; by our efforts tP,suPPlliy
this great desideratum. We can exoiaim With
the ancient sage and philosopher--EuREkA

Boots, that have the happy faculty ofimpartinl

OF the beholder with rapture as he gaZes on $

Caralessness of Human Life.

We have mad, within the past few days,
more than the ordinary illustrations of the
carelcssness of human life, which is so
prevalent in this country The falling of
buildings in New York and the explosion
of steam boilers on the Western waters
have forcbly reminded us of the neglect
50 common here, which in almost any
other civilized country worid be visited
with severe penalties. Here they pass by
without punishment and almost without
investigation. A few newspaper para graphs,
4 little talk, aud at most the verdict Of a
eoroner's jury, complete the sum Of
public indignation. Other buildings 90
up in the same careless way and tumble
down upon the workmen and passers by.
Other steamboats, are built with the same
imperfect machinery, placed IN the charge
IF Just as incompetent men, and hurried
t, destruction in the same manner. We
d, not profess to know wAr5,. is he reu.e-
dy for all this, but the evil Is immense and
Is increasing. In the West, especially a
mans life is practically esteemed of less
inheritance than that of good Serviceatle

CHLoROFORN We observe IN the New
Haven papers a notice Of the death Of Mrs.
Emily Norton, from the Inhalation Of this
powerful anesthetie administered By
surgeon dentist When it is 50 we'll
known to medical men that chloroform
contains not particle Of oxygen, and
that the number Of deaths from its use, A.
borne out by Hospital statistics, amounts
to several hundred, i. is surprising to see
the temerity with which some Of them
still cling to it. The doctor was e1culpa-
ted entirely by the coroner's jury, instead
Of being imprisoned as he richly deserved.
Repeated experiments have proved that
sulphuric ether, though slower in Its opsr-
ation, produces the same anesthetic effect
and is perfectly safe and inuoxious, and if
men mW persist in using highly dan
gerous agent to produce unconsciousnsss
when they have at hand one that is Just az
efficacious and not at all hur,ful, it il time
that the Ga,r would take the matter in hand

story following of woman who il worth

Here she gave him home. Here she gave
him an emetic, and got him sober, and
then borrowed horse snd wagon anu

SIR JOHN FRANKLIN We observe in
the New York Duly Times a long article
in regard to the statement of Que Capt
Story, that in the spring of last year Capt
Coward, of the ship renovation. Off New
foundland, observed two vessels fastened
in the ice, close to berg, but cne appa-
rently at Il greater elevation than the 9TH
er," which are row supposed to be the
missing ships of Sir John Franklin. The
captain Of the Renovation was lying III :.
and the mate did not Ike TO take the =
sponsbility of nearing the iceberg and in
stituting an examination of the imprison-
ed ships. Not living soul was seen on
board of them. The story as related may
be true, and it is quite possible that the
