Fashion.

Putnam is out against the follies Of fashion
able society in New York. These are paint
ed vigorously. Aye, both the follies and Vi
ces are told. Yet iu plain English and with
startling downrigbtness.
But it is slledged, that the new Review
stops halfway. 1t does not give the remedy.
1t may evoke the enqury-"what am to do
but it does not answer it. So the Tribune
points at few corrections Of the errors so
powerfully portrayed by the Review. 1t
says:---
l. "Our "best society" is empty, false, un-
worthy, because it has no aims beyon luxu-
ry, Incidence, ard the avoidance of RESPONSE
bility and care" Its views of life are wrong,
This wrong neither the Seminary nor the press,
nor scarcely the Pull pit seek to eradicate.-
The basis OF reform must rest on this idea
that no human being has moral right to lead
an idle selfish, pleasure-seehing lif. A chris
tain and hero looking in the best society "
would be deemed a quiz or lunatc, because
il has no earnest purpose no worthy aim,-
Give il this earnest purpose, and this worthy
aim. and Good Society" so called would van
ish like the morning mist.
2. "Our best society is glaringly vulgar and
barbarous." Ii ministers chiefly to the gros-
ser apetitcs. Feasring and drinking, and at
late hours, are all and all with it. 1t is n
fruitful source of disease, debility and prema-
ture death"

Worth knowing.

Some Of the papers of late have had par.
.agraph recommending the use of wheat -four
in the case Of scalds or burns. A gentleman
at Dayton saw it, and the other day, az he
writes, tested it to his satisfaction. He says:
"Whle at the supper table, little child,
which was seated in the mothers lap, sudden
y grasped hold Of a hot cup full of tea, se-
verely scalding its left hand and arm i'm
mediately brought pan of flour and plunged
the arm into it, covering entirely the parts
scalded, with the -four. The effect was truly
remarkable-the pain was gone instantly. 1
then bandaged the arm loosely applying plen-
lty Of flour next to the skin--and the next
morning there was not the least sign that tho
arm had been scalded-neither did the child
suf,r the least pain after the application Of
the four"
Reader, do you bear this little fact in mind
if a similar occasion offers

The Board Of Public works and the
\ Sandnsky Bay.

AS we have heretofore stated, the mana
gers of the Junction Rail Road Company, fol
the purpose of evading the plain provisions o
their charter, got up a rail road company un
der the general rail road law, called the Por
Clinton Rail Road Company, in the name o
which, they presented to the acting commits
sionor Of the Board of Public Works, plan Of
rail road bridge to be constructed across the
Sandnsky Bay. This application being en-
irely ex parte, accompanied by such state
meuts as might be expected from that source,
an approval was entered upon the journal oi
the Board AS soon as the citizens of Ere
mont ascertained what had been done, they
applied to the Board for reconsideration and
recession of the order The matter was set
for hearing on the 18th inst, when The case
was fully argued on behalf Of the citizens of
Fremont, by Messrs. Pugh and Hayes, and by
Mr.. Bucher for the Port Clinton Rail Road
Company, or rather the Junction Rail Road
Company, disguised under the name of the
Port Clinton Company The Board Of Pub
lie Works, when they came to understand the
matter. unanimously rescinded the order. not
by mere majority vote, as the Register
would have it. Thus ends the first chapter.
The next will come off on the l1th of March
next, when the citizens will apply to Judge
Starkweather at Cleveland, for an injunction
against the junction and Port Clinton Rail
Road Companies, and others, attempting to
obstruct the navigation of the Sandusky Bay.
We shall then see whether an arm Of Lake
Erie, from one and quarter to four miles
wide, and 10 miles in length, and navigable
for sail vessels, can be obstructed and mar
rowed down to q few feet, to accommodate
rail road spectators, and without any author
ity Of law. If Rail Road Companies are to be
permitted to disregard their charters and ride
over and swallow up all other interests with
impunity, the sooner it is known the better.

The London correspondent Of the Boston
Post, who has seen Mademosellc Monligo
gives what that paper says is true descriP-
ton Of her personal appearance, as follows, in
which he certainly represents her in much
more favorable light than some other accounts
have done:
To those who remember the duchess Of Te-
ba as she appeared during her visits to the
great exhibition of 1851, it will not be incom-
prchensble how the Emperor Of France has
consented that she should share his throne.
She is certainly one Of the most beautiful wo-
men Of her time. Below the medium height
Of ladies Of the United States, she possesses,
nevertheless. that perfect symmetry Of person
which makes her appear taller than she real
ly lis. Her feet and ancles are Of perfect mould ;
her carriage is graceful; her head finely set
upon her shoulders, and her face intellectual
and eminenty beautiful. She has the black
hair. pencilled brows, and lustrous dark eye OF
the Spanish women, with the clear, brilliant
complexion Of a more northern latitude; and
her neck and breast would furnish model
for the sculptor Her mind is said to be fine
ly cultivated. and her powers of conversation
fitted to second her personal attractions. That
she has great self respect is eyinced by her
whole course since the incllnations oil Louis
Napoleon were first apparent to her She has
never been seen in public. in his company; has,
apparently. discouraged his attentions; was

! In the pleasant and romantic village o
c, in which the lot of the writer of The
following veracious anecdo,e was cast for some
months, there resides, or did reside, person
who delighted in the name Of Joe Harvey
If Joe had any faulls, they were drukenness
and laEness but more particularly the latter,
as his total disinclnation TO any exception fire.
quently restrained him from procuring those
beverages which delighted his soul
During fine weather, Joe was to be seen
either hanging about the village tavern, or
sleeping under some tree around which he
would diuinally revolve to protect himself
from the rays Of the sun as il travelled across
the heaven. In winter he would take refuge
in the poor house, and cause the county to
have to support its most reckless inhabitant
until the return Of spring made his loafy
couches again available.
Upon one occasion having partsken freely

minutes in heavy sleep Now it happened
that the spirit Of mischief, after lowering

Of the liveliest of the lively. The Major see
ing Joe snoring Sub tsga,ias .tagi." proposed
to his friends that they should take and bury
him, as he was of no further use to himself,
his family, or any one else-but ON the CON
trary, tax to every one.
The suggestion was Immediately adopted,
and as Immediately acted on. To go TO the
underakcr's procure a coffin, and put in 1t the
unconscious body of their victim, was but the
work Of an Instant; and then, as newspapers
say, the mournful cortege proceeded
On the way, they were met by neishbor-
ing wealthy farmer, who asked whom they
were about buryng.
Joe Harvey" said the Major.
"Why, is old Joe dead at last?"
"No, he's not dead but we are going to
bury him, to put him out Of the way before
winter sets in"
"Oh," said the farmer don't do that, let
him 60 little longer, and will give him corn
enough to keep him until spring"
Al these words the sleeping form was seen
to move, and the languid, maudline features
of old Joe emerged slowly from the level of
the coffin. His half-peeled eyes revealed two
blood shot balls which seemed to fall loosely
in the direction of his noble interceder then
mastering all his energy, in a tone scarcely
above whisper, he enqured:

"No," was the dead lesponse.

lapsed into bis coffin, "tote along the eOrpse.i"
