A gentleman, who is himself the father of sew
eraI interesting daughters, has furnished the fol-
lowing good advice to young ladies to an exchange
for publication. Read it, young ladies, and do not
forget it:
"Trust not to uncertain riches, but prepare your
self for every emergency in life. Learn to work, and
not be dependent upon servants make your bread
sweep your floors and darn your own stockings. A
bove ALL do not esteem too lightly those honorable
young men who sustain themselves and their parents
by the sweat of their brow, while you for and
receive in your company those lazy idle popinjays
who lift finger to help themselves, SO long
they keep body ard soul together, and get suf-
cient to live in fashion.
Young women, remember this, and instead of
sounding the purses of your lovers, and examining
the cut Of their coats, look into their hearts and hab
its. Mark if they have trades and can depend upon
themselves if they have minds which will lead
them 10 look above butterfly existence. Talk not
of the beautiful white skin and soft delicate hand
the fine appearance of the young gentleman. Do not
let such foolish considerations enter your braiR.
