A CURE FOR HARD TINES. Sixty oil the
most fashionable ladies in New-HOrk have
formed society for the promotion Of Ameri-
can industry, by encouraging domestic man
ufactures. The members pied geG themselves
to wear nothing which is not made in Amer
lea, and the fire is spreading. Our good
friend, Charles Se.son. Esq, of he AStor
House, n. Y, writes to US under date Of the
2Sth uit., in which he says, last evening
there was large sOire3 given here; the idea
was, that nothing but American goods should
be worn on the occasion, and the effect was
delightful. American silks could MT be
found, but callcoes and muslin de lanes were
all the rage"
We would recommend ladies of Cincinnati
TO form a society of the same sort, aud re-
sc.ve to wear only American manufactured
goods; begin the New Year with this deter
mnution, make domestic fabrics fashionable
and we shall soon have good times. We
purchase twenty millions OF dollars worth oI
foreign silks every year, which at ten per
cent. is the interest upon tire, hundTed satt
lions Of dollars. Let there be reform.

1t soon became apparent that H. would be
no fault Of Harry, if he did not have Fanny
for q wife. Never was a man deeper in
love, nor did he make an effort to co lceal It,
Had Fanny been a foolish hut, she would
have played with his feelings, as vain girls
will when, secure of lever. But she was
| too frank, and good for this, and only hcsita-
I ted long enough to be certain Of the state OF
her own heart, wheR she made Harry happy
by accepting him
Two persons more fitted for each other, in
fact could not be. Though always merry,
because always happy, Fanny was amiable,
intelligent and tull OF sound sense. She had
read and thought great deal, especially for
one so young. Her heart ran ovsr with 'un.
written poetry Had Harry sought, for a
lifetime, he could not have found wife SO
cOmpanionablv, and 50 suited in every way
to him. ...
What talk the engagement made when
it came out! The naughty label, who,with-
out being half as capable of sincere love as
Fanny, had made up her mind to have Harry,
and whose vanity therefore, was piqued even
degraded herself so much as TO call the bride
elect can artfu and intriguing puss." 9th.
cr disappointed beauties had other hard names
for Fanny. But though wheE our heroine
first heard of these ISLANDERS, she shed few
tears. she soon dried her eyes, FOR, with lIar.
RVS love, nothing could make her long un.
happy.
It, was not until the young couple had sci
off on their wedding tour that Harry told his
wife what had first made him fail in love
with her.
Every other girl i visited that morning,
he said, 'was playing the fine lady; and that
while, as / well knew, their mothers were
often shaving in the kitchen. | reasoned that
the daughter who would neglect her duty to
parent, could scarcely be less selfish ia.
wards husband. Besides, it is a common
error with your sex, now -a-days, to suppose
that it is debasing to engage in domestic du-
ties To man of sense, dearest, woman
never looks more attractive than at such a
time. AS Wadswor!h writes"
''Iier modest motions, light and free,
And steps of virgin liberty;
A countenance in which there meet
Sweet records, promises sweet 't..
A creature not too BRIGHT anu good
For human natures daily iood
For transient sorrows, simple wies,
Praise blame love- kisses Tears ana smiles"
As he reci,ed these lines, with exquist
sensibiity, he put his arm around Fanny's
waist, and drew her towards him; and the
young wife, looking up into his face, witt
devoted affection, rested her head IN his bos
ON and shed happy tears.
And SO we leave them. ..

But hereest sweep of tempest blast
ON came the wiirfwfsd-steel CLEANS broke Z
Like Iirhtning through the rolling smoke;
The war was walked anew.
Three hundred cannon mouths roar'd loud,
And from their throats, with fash and cloud,
Their showers Of iron threw. ..
Beneath their fire, IN fun career,
Rushd on the ponderuus cuirassier.
The lancer couch'd his ruthless spear,
And, hurrying as TO havoonear,
The cohorts eagles few. ---
In one dark torrent, bread and strong,
Th' advancing onset roll'd along,
Forth-b arbinser'd by fierce acclaim,
That from the shroud Of smoke and fame,
Peal'd wildly the imperial name.
But on the British heart Were lost
The tsrrors Of the charging host;
For not an eve the storm thar viewd
Changed its proud glance OF fortitude;
Nor wss one forward foststep stay'd,
As droppd the dying and the dead.
Fast as their ranks the thunder tears,
Fast they renev'd each serned square
And on the wounded and the slain
Closed their diminished files again;
TIN from their line scarce spears lengths three,
Emerging from the smoke they see
HsImet, and plume, and panoply-
Then walked their fire al once,
Each musketeeT's revolving kaeu ~
As fast a regularly fell
As when they practise 20 display
Their discipline on festal day.
Then down went helm and lance
Down rent the eagle banners sent,
Down Keeling steeds and riders went,
COrslets were pierced, and pennous rent;
And TO augment the fray,
WhesPd full against their staggering tanks,
The English horsemsn's foaming RACKS
Forced their resistless way:
Then IO the musket knell succeeds
The clash Of swOrds-the neigh of stetds.
As plies the smith his changing trade,
Against the cuirass rang the blade;
And while amid their clsse array
The well served cannon rent their way,
And while amid their scattered band
Ragged the fierce rider's bloody brand
Recoil'd in common rout and fear
Lancer; the guard, and cuirassier,
