fashion calls for change, and change we
must cave. Away goes your furniture to
the ca6inet-maker. The manufacturer is
benefited, and your pocket is the sufferer.
Fashion sits well on sone-on others
awkwardly. 1t is most unfortunate when
one of the latter class takes up the idea that
he is fitted for fashionable life. His neigh
Dor, who is man Of the world, does this
and that, and he fancies he must do SO like
wise, for he has burning desire to be with
In the pale. In his attempt to make fool
of himself, is laughed at, and feels deeply
mortified. His vanity prompts him to make
renewed efforts, and sometimes he imagines
he is making rapid advances in fashion,
By his folly he has lost the respect of his for
mer friends, and his new made fashionable
acquaintances countenance him only SO far
az it suits their ends. His position is a most
enenviable enc. By one class hated with
contempt-by the other despised. He sees
his mistake when too late, and would give
worlds to enjoy his former respectable sta
ton in life; but this happiness is denied
him. and he goes through life with none to
love, and few to sYmpathize with him.
There is too little independence in regard
to fashion. We suffer It to take by far to
deep hold upon US, and to influence ms too
much in our thoughts and actions. The vo-
taries of fashion themselves will tell you
there is no heart in it, and much too often
but little real happiness. Let Us maintain
respectable position in society, by cor
rect course of life, and not fear to do what
we consider proper, because it is unfashion-
able. In fine, let us act independent of
fashion, and not allow it to influence us to
our disadvantage. Let US aim more to OBJ
tain the comforts and quiet and social life,
apart from fashion, and we will most un-
doubtedly enjoy that peace of mind which
fashion, with all its allurements cannot give.

of the kings poetry, and forgot to return it.
This, was, we believe, merely one of the
Oversights which men setting upon journey
often commit. That Voltaire could have
meditated plagiarism is quite Incredible
He would not, we are confident, for the half
of Frederick's kingdom, have consented
to father Frederick's verses. The hing,
however, who rated his own writings much
above their real value, and who was inclined
to see all Voltaire's actions in theif worst
light, was engaged to think that his favorite
compositions were in the hands of an enemy
as thievish as daw and as mischieyous as
monkey. In the anger excited by this
thought, he lost sight of reason ahd decency,
and determined on committing an outrage at
once odious and ridiculous.
Voltaire had reached Frankfort His
neice, Madame Denis, came thither to meet
him. He conceived himself secure from the
powet of his late master, when he was ar.
rested by order of the Prussian RESIDENT
But the Prussian agent had been instructed
not to let Voltaire escape without some gross
ndignity. He was confined twelve days in
a wretched hovel. Sentinels, with fixed
bayonets, kept guard over him. His niece
was dragged through the mire by the soldiers.
Sixteen hundred dollars had been extorted
from him by his itisoleht jailors.
When at length the illustrious prisoner
was set at liberty, the prospect was bat
dreary. He was an exile, both from the
country of his birth, and the country of his
adoption.
He took refuge on the beautiful shores of
Lake Leman. There, loosed from every tie
which had hitherto restrained him, and hav-
ing little to fear or hope from courts or
churches, he began his long war against all
that, whether for good or evil, had authority
over the mind of man. What Burke said of
the Constituent Assembly was eminently
true of this its Great Forerunner. He
could not build--he could not pull down.
he was the very Virtruvius of ruin. He had
bequeathed to us not single doctrine to be
called by his name--not a single addition
to the stock of our positive knowledge. But
no human teacher ever left behind him so
vast and terrible wreck of truths and false
hoods--of things noble and things base-of
things useful and things pernicious. From
the time when his sojourn beneath the Alps
commenced, the dramatist, the wit, the his
torianj was merged in more important char
actef He was now the patriarch, the foun-
der of sect, the chief of a conspiracy, the
prince of wide intellectual commonwealth.
He often enjoyed pleasure dear to the
better part of his nature, the pleasure of vim
dicating innocence which had no other help
er-of repairing cruel wrongs-of punishing
tyranny in high places. He had also the
satisfaction, not less acceptable to his raw
enous vanity, of hearing terrified Capuchin
call him the Anti-Christ. But whether en-
ployed in works of benevolence or in works
of mischief, he never forgot Potsdam and
Frankfort and he listened anxiously to
every murmur which indicated that tempest
was gathering in Europe, and that his ven-
geance was at hand

ssBe not the first by whom the new is tried
Nor yet the last to lay the old aside"
How few are there nowadays Of those
who are easy in circumstances, that live and
act independently of fashion. With few
and rare exceptions. all bend the knee and
bow in submission before the tyrant. The
good old times of our ancestors, when man
studied comfort, without so much regard to
fashion, have passed away. Man is no lon-
ger free. He is under the dominion Of fash
ion, and fashion not unfrequently makes him
cut ridiculous figure. Fashion declares
how the cut of your coat should be, shapes
your hat, teaches you how to walk, speak,
eat laugh and hundred other things, to omit
any of them would be sufficient for your con-
demnation in the fashionable world. The
coat you wear is d very good ohe-true, you
have had it a year, and it may be a little
thread bare; but it keeps the color we'll and
you like it. When you put it on in the

you feel familiar with it, and to part with it
would be like taking leave of an old and

aside. You would faiu Keep it longer, but
fashion positively prohibits it, and bids your
