FEMALE Qccrp,rIoS.-Women in the mid
die rank are brought up with the idea that if
they engage in some occupations they shall lose
" their position in society" Suppose tito be so;
surely it is wiser to quit Il position We cannot
honestly maintain, than to live dependant upon
the bounty and caprice Of Others better to ll-
Dor with our hands than cat the bread of idcncSS
or submit to feel THAT we must not give utter
ence to our real opinions, or express an honest
Indignation ut being required To- act base uil-
worthy part. And in all cases, however situated,
every female ought to learn how all household
ai!arS are managed, were it only for the purpose
Of being able to direct others. There cannot be
any disgrace in learning how to make the bread
We eat, to cook our dinners, to mend our clothes.
or even to clean the house. Better to be found
buSily engaged in removing the dust from the
furniture than to let it accumulate there until
visitor leaves pal pablc traces where his hat or
arm have been laid upon the table.

Since the price of subscription has been reduced
from five 10 three dollars year, the circulation OF

to one. In many places ten are sold where there
was but one before, and through the year il has
been steadily increasing. Il IS now offered as
cheap as any ofthe Magazines, all things consider
ed Instead Of making new and prodigious pro-
late numbers, which we might extend TO number
ofpaages,
Those familiar with the Editors monthly Cos
sip with his readers have doubtless with ourselves
admired the perennial source of its pleasant wit
and joyousness. In this number The Gossip'
holds on its waylike some fair rvulet glancing and
dancing in the sunshine of May morning. We
used TO wonder how Mr.. Clark held out, expecting
he must certainly snow brown in the coming
numbers but this number gives no sign Of exhaus-
tion. ."--Nationl LateAigsacer, Washington.
