AFrzAzAEoEs.-Upon the subject Of
dress and appearances the N. z. Times
thus remarks: ~
ga coat that has the marks of use
upon it is Recommendation to people Of
sense, and hat with too smooth nap
and TOO high lustre is derogstory
circumstance. The best coats in Broad
way are on the backs of penniless fops,
broken down merchants, clerks on pitt
fulsalaries, and men that don't pay up.
The heaviest gold chains dangle from
the fobs of gamblers and gentlemen of
very limited means; costly ornaments on
ladies Indicate to eyes that are well
open, the fact of silly lover or husband
cramped for funds. And when pref
tywoman goes by in suit of plain and
neat apparel, it is the presumption that
she has fair expectations and a husband
who can show balance in his favor
For women are like books-too much
gliding makes men suspicious that the
binding is the most important point.

BARNUM's BABY SHow.-This atrocious and
revolving humbug appears to hang fire.
Barnum seems to have exhausted his whole
magazine of impositions upon the public, ex-
cept this, and this threatens to be a dead
failure. We venture to say that, no matter
what premiums he may offer, he will fail to
bring forward any decent and sensible white
woman to exhibit her offspring among the
Feejee mermaids, stuffed monkeys, dogs and
monsters Of Barnum's museum. 1t is time that
all such expedients as Barnum's false pretences
to get the odd quarters of the poor country
people were stopped. This baby show should
be indicted and suppressed. as publ: nui-
