coURTING.


This Is rather a delicate subject, we know:
but then we dare say, subject bearing this
head will be read by the ladies, as quick as
anything on which their eyes can rest And
it is for their benefit that we are now writing.
There issomething in the idea of courtiner which
causes an indescribable thrill We have lust
read the following account of how the ladies do
up these things in Rome and which NAV offer
them some useful hints:
A Roman lady who takes a liking to a
foreigner, does not cast. her eyes down when
he looks at her, but fixes them upon him lonp
and with evident pleasure may, she gazes at
him alone, whenever she meets him in coinpa
ny, at church, at the theatre, or in her walks.
She will say, without ceremony to friend of
the young man, Tell that gentleman I ike
him If the man of her choice feels the Ike
sentiment and asks, Are you fond of me pr.
She replies with the utmost frankness. sYes
my dear
There, that is coming to point at once. and
not going round about with bushes and SIM
perng, and finally get out sno,' when YES is
attended. What is the use of making such =
stamme1ing and suffering about it when ON.
is oYerjoyed with pleasurea
The ladies at Rome do not seem Ia. be at an
troubled with any undue restraints Of. delicac,-
and modesty. They say what they think. ana
act accordingly. On the contrary, our Amer.
ladies are so modest and bassfftil that tl,ev
let allthe good opportunities slip through Their
fingers, while they are bltlshing behind a fan,
They would not for the world let 4 voIinf, MAJ,
suppose they cared any thing. about him f,o,ss
they might be dying with love. Now We tI,;Sl,
ut best to split the difference. The Rorna,, Il

too slow Our advice IS that YOU take for ve,,,
platform the compromise and unite the two,
Medium ground is generally safe. But donf

e The Gatpay Packet Of Saturday the 2sthult gives
the suboined remarkable statement in reference to
the progress ofemigration from that quarter -

in the fact that those who compose it are not broken

Iert OWE NO Man ASYrH1s Keep out
Of debt. Avoid it as you would war, pestiience
and famine. Shun it as you would the devil.
Hate it with perfect hatred Abhor it with
an entire and absolute adherence. Dig pota-
toes, break stones, peddIe in TN ware, do any
thing that ishonest and useful, rather than run
in debt. As you value comfort, quiet, indepen-
dence, keep out of debt AS you value diges-
ton, healthy appetite, placid temper,
smooth pillow, sweet sleep, pleasant dreams,
and happy wakings, keep out of debt. Debt is
the hardest of all task-makers, the most cruel
of all oppressors 1t is an incubus on the heart.
It spreads cloud over the whole sfirInarnent of
mans being 1t eclipses the sun, it blots out
the stars, it dins and defaces the beautiful blue
sky. It breaks up the harmony Of nature, and
turns to dissonance al the voices Of its melody.
1t furtcws the forehead with premature win
kes, it plucks the eye of its light. It drags ali
noblehess and Kindness out of the port and bear
ing Of man. It takes the soul out of his.
laugh and all stateliness and freedom from his.
walk Come not under its accused domains.
Pass by it as you would pass by a leper, or one
smitten by the plague. Touch 1t not. Taste
not of its fruit for it shall turn to bitterness
and ashes on your lips. Finally, Isay 10 each
and to all, but especially to young men, keep
out of debt
