Horrible Duel in California.

BY The Santa Clara Register We are in
formed of the following particulars of duel
which came off in Santa Clara county last
week, near Gilroys ranch, and which in fe-
rociiy and desperation, we find no parallel for

Nine shots were fired, and four Of tho balls
took effect in each of the combatonts. Both
parties expired Immediately. and they were

The Bloomer Fashions for 1859. 50.

Mrs Bloomer--who must be the best autho-
rity the following important information rel
ative to the Bloomer Fashions for the season
in the last number of tho Lily, a very pretty
little monthly quarto, edited and published by
her at Seneca Falls:
| We have received several letters Of inquiry
about the style of hat is to be worn the coming
winter.
II is iitlo perplexiug to US to answer such
questions for we know very little about fashions
and wo do not wish to set ourself up as pat
tern for others. We are not aware that there
is any particular style for making the short
dress, or nc,c fashion for it. At least zoe have
none, but make ours just TO suit our own fancy
and comfort, and we hope others will do the
same. We believe our dress does not differ
materially from those worn by others, except
in the length of tho skirt and bodice; and in
our giving ourselves room to breathe freely,
and depending ON onr own muscles instead OF
whalebrncs for support. And this we consid
or all important, whether the skirt be long or
short. Another important consideration which
we urge upon our lady readers, is the cupport-
ing Of under skirts by elastic suspenders-(the
same as those worn by men, and worn in the
sans manner)--instead of letting them rest
upon the hips. They arc perfectly easy, and
far preferable to ''straps," We are happy to

extent. and they will be generally adopted
when their advantage becomes known.
Tho prctticst style of cloak for tho short
dress is full circle, or Spanish clook. The
sacquc looks well, and is very convenient, as it
leaves tho arms free.
Both bonnets and hats are worn. If hat,
the beaveris preferable, though they may be
made of silk or velvet. Those wishing beaver
hats can obtain them by sending an order to
]. n. Genin. halter, New York, giving the
measure of the head, and the description of the
hat wanted. We are not sure but they
may be obtained of any halter. The
trousers are mado mostly straight and plain,
or with "spring bottoms though some will pre-
fer them full and confined at the ankle
The large number Of ladies who attended
the meeting here on the 14th ult., dressed in
short skirts and trousers proved the falsity Of
the statement made by some of the papers
that this style had become extinct. The
number present on that occasion was by diff
ferent persons estimated as high as fifty. and
these camo from different sections of the
State. Lucy Stone, whom all so much ad-
mired we are happy to see, still adheres to
this STYLE of dress.

Lazy Bows.

A lazy boy makes a lazy man, just as sure
as q crooked twig makes crooked tree. Who
ever yet saw boy grow up in idleness that
did not make shifiless vagabond when he be-
came man, unless no had a fortune left him
to keep up appearancesi The greet mass Of
thieves, paupers and criminals that I'll or pom
| itentinries and alms-house, have come up to
what they are by being bronghtup in idleness.
Those who constitute the business portion Of
the community, those who make ouv great and
useful mem, wero trained up in their boyhood
to be industrious.
When boy is old enough to begin to play
in the street, then he is old enough to be taught
how to work. Ofcourse, we would not deprive
children of healthfdl, playful exercise, or tho
time they should spend in study, but teach
thcm to work Iittle by little as child is taught
at school. In this way he will acquire habits
of industry which will not forsake him when
he grows up. ..a ia -.
Many persons who arepoor let their children
grow Up TO fourteen or sixteen years Of age, or
till they can support them no olonger. before
they nut them to labor Such children, not
having any idea of what work is, and having
acquired habits of idlenoss, go forth to impose
upon tfeir employers with lazness. There is
a responsiveness in all labor set before them,
and to get itslone, no matter how is their on
ly aim. They a~e ambitious ut play but dull at
work. The consequence is, they do not stick
to one thing but short time; they rove about
the world, get into mischief, and finally find
their way to the prison or he alms-house.
With the habit of idleness, vice may gener-
ally, if not inveriably, be found, Where the
mind and hands are not occupied i'll some USE
full employment, an evil genius finds them
enough TO do. They are found in the street
till late in the evening. learning the vulgar
and profan habits of the elder in vice: they
may be seen hanging around groceries, BAR
rooms and stores, where crowds gather; but
they are seldom found engaged in study.
A lazy boy is not only a bad boy, but dis
grace to his parents, for It'll through their neg
lect that he became thus. No parents, how
ever poor, in these times of cheap books and
newspapers need let their children grow up in
idleness. If they cannot be kept at manuel
labor, lot their minds be kept at work. mako
them industrious scholars and they will be in
dustrious at any business they may undertake
in after life.
We know of many boys--young men old
enough to do business for themselves, who can
not read, and much less write their own names.
They, too, are lazy, for ignorance and laziness
are twin brothers Wo always feel sorry for
for such young men--their habits are for life,
the twig bent in childhood has grown dis
torted tree, and there is no remedy for it.
They must pass through life as they have liv-
ed--in laziness and ignorance. Think of 1t
young reader, and take heed that your habits
and character be not formed like theirs.

USEARNED MoNEY.-IIowever common may
DO the desire OF sndden wealth, yet it may be
safely affirmed that money is never SO much en-
joycd. or SO pleasantly and judicously spont
as when hardly earned. The exerton used
In obtaining it, is beneficial, alike to the health
and spirits. II affords pleasure in the contem-
plation. as tho result of effort and industry,
of thing which unearned money can never
mpart: and tho naturel alienation of labor
and relaxation tends to preserve the body in
health, and keeps the mind from the injurious
extremes of other parsimony or prodigality.
Unearned money on tho contrary, as il is OBJ
tained without any effort spent without q
thought There is no healthful activity used
in obtaining it; no putting forth of those cncr-
gies, the use of which tends so much to ele-
vate and purify; no skill or perseverance call
cd into action; and it is seldom that it is pos
sessed to any great extent without injoring
the possessor. 1t induces distance for labor
and activity; itlulls to ignoble rest in the lap
,,f circumstances; it allures 10 float along with
steam. instead ofthcrhealtnfull labor OF steam
ing the tide cf difficulty; and he bad need be
sometiug moro than mortal who can possess
much of this unearned money without being
in his moral nature somewhat parlysed and de-
based. Naturally rampant as are the weeds
of sloth and sensuaGty in tho human heart,
that condition in-life in which there is not on
ly work to be done. but pork that must be
done, will be tho safest and best. Money sell
dom makes men better, either physically or
morally, and often makes them worse. Sell
dom does man become more healthy in his
body as money increases; seldom does his
wind become moro powerful as hiss purse be-
comes heavier; not always does his heart beat
more benevolently as his wealth accumulates.
But if money, even when laudably gained by
wholesome exertion and enterprise, be of
doubtful or injurious effect upon its posscssor,
doubly hazardous and painfulmust be the pos
session of that money mhich is unearned and
untoiled for, and which only leaves the dispo-
sal Of time at the mercy of idle drcaminess or
ingenious mischief. and enriches the growth
of those rank weeds Of tho heart which are
most successfully checked by wholesale exer-
tions and occupations.

was still desirous of giving the party an affec-
tomato reception! Consequently, he sum-

(some fifteen lusty Irish women.) and agreed
to give them three dollars each ifthey would

Important to Millers and Flour Dealers.

We notice i'm the New York Economist
(Which we must stop TO say is n commercial
iournel, of the highest order, and of great util-
ity. )that the Corn Exchange, which was estab-
ished in New York in May last. have under
cons deration a proposition relative to the
appointment Of inspectors of -four, which we
think will add materially TO the Improvement
in the manufacture of good flour. The cor
rect Inspection of flour is Of considerable inn
portance to the buyer. Until tho adoption OF
the new Constitution Of New York. the In
spectors were appointed by the Governor and
Senate. The chief inspector of tho city OF
New York was highly remunerative Office.
and he appointed subordnates to perform the
duties All -four underwent legal inspection.
When the Office was abolished, the inspectors
formed themselves into an association, and
have since been recognized BY tho dealers in
-four. As any dealer in -four has as perfect
right to inspect as this association, there was
no responsibility attached to them. Instan-
ces are known Of great complaints being made
IN England of the brands affixed to certain
parcels of flour representing them to be what
they really wero not. The subject has been
brought to tho attention of tho members of
the Exchange, at regular meeting, and a
committee has been appointed to consider the
expediency of having the -four Inspector
appointed by that body for term of years.
and not subject to removal except of want of
attention or malpractice. Should tho propo-
sticn 90 into operation, there can be little
doubt but that IL would raise the standard of
tho inspection in the city of New York to a
matter of Importance.
The same board have also appointed COM
mittee to consider on the system of measuring
grain in the city of New York.
