PENALTIES The penalty of buy
ing cheap clothes is the same as that
Of going to law-the certainty Of los
ing your suit and having to pay for it..
The penalty Of marrying is moth
cr-in-law.
The penalty of remaining single is
having no one who "cares button"
for you, as is abundantly proved by
the state Of your shirts.
The penalty Of thin shoes is cold.
The penalty Of stopping in haris is
being shot.
The penalty of tight boots is corns,
The penalty of having a haunch OF
venison sent to you is inviting doz-
en- friends to come and eat it.
The psno'ty popularity is envy.
The penalty of baby is sleepless
nights.
The penalty of interfering between
man and wife is abuse, frequently ac-
companied with blows from both.

TnE ENGLISH WOMEN OF FASH
IoN-Lord Jeifry, in writing to fe-
male friend in America, describes very
happily, 'first-class specimen of an
English women of Fashion, Great
quietness, simplicity, and delicacy OF
manners, with a certain dignity and
self-possession that puts vulgarity out
of countenance, and keeps prcsump-
ton in awe; singularly sweet, soft,
and rather low voic', with remarka-
BILE elc lcgance and ease of diction; 8
perfect taste in wit, manners, and con-
versation, but no loquacity. and'rath-
er languid spirits sort of indolent
disdain of display and accomplish
ments; an air of great good nature and
kindness, with but too often some heart,
lessncss, duplicity and ambition; these
are some of the traits, and such, |
think, as would most strike an Ameri-
can. You would think her rather cold
and spiriiless; but she would predom-
mate over you in the long run; and
indeed is very bewitching and dan
gerous creature, more seductive and
graceful than any other in the world
tut not better nor happier and am
speaking even of the very best and
most perfect Home Joaraal

BATTLE OF w WATElL9O.--ln this
great battle the French had 256 guns
on Tie field, the English 1856, and the
Prussians l0i--making a total Of 506,
The noiso of these pieces exceeded ev-
erytEing of the kind the old soldiers
had ever heard, and made the very
earth to shake for miles around the
field. After the action, the gunners
could hear nothing that was said to
them. The guide pointed out spot
where, during the heat of the fighting,
one Of the powder tumbrils exploded,
threw the artillerymen into the air,and
shook the horses to pieces. The ech-
oes of the cannonade of the awful bat
tie are said TO have been heard on the
Southern borders of the British coast.
Upwards of 10000 men fell in the
strife; 10000 on the side of the allies,
and 10000 on the side Of the French.
The losses of this day put Europe in
mourning. England and Franch wept
like mothers together. A victor, who
passed over the field on the following
day, states, that as he approached it,
the first thing that struck him at dis
tancc, was the quantity of hats and
caps strewel over the ground. 1t APP
peared as if it had been covered with
crows. The field itself seemed flood
ed with blood. The number Of dead
horses and men baflled computation.
The peasantry employed in burying
the dead generally stripped the bodies
first, and thereby gained vast booty
The track over which the guard NOV
ed, and over which they fled, was still
covered with their spoil, and marked
by the traces of horses, the wheels of
cannon, and the deeper furrows of
bombs and shells. A thousand French
lay dead on the spot, and the quanti-
ty of holsters, standard-holders, bri-
dies, straps and girths, denoted fear
full conflict Of cavalry. The ground
seemed quite cut to pieces with the
struggling of the horses feet. The
well-known caps of the grenadiers Of
the French guard lay yet in consider a.
bic numbers, with the rags of their
uniforms,and pieces of tartan and black
ostrich feathers; the plaids and plumes
of Scotland.
