UsORul Accomplishments of Females

A sensible writer makes the following
comparisons between the useful and the
SNOWY accomplishments of females. A
prudent man in choosing companion for
life will prefer a good housekeeper,
To be an accomplished ncedlewoman
is far more praiseworthy than an elegant
dancer-to be able to cook well is Of far
greater commendation than to be termed
the Belle of the Ball" To be a good
washer and ironer is of more value in the
eyes of a true man than all the sickly SEN
timentality that may be cleaned from the
perusal of Bulwer, James,. or any Of the
fashionable novelists of the present day
10 be a good practical economist confers
more lasting honor and pleasure on a wo.
man, than to be mistress of all the taste
and skill so often foolishIy displayed in
embroidery, crochet, and fancy knitting

off" at New Orleans for five dollars a
side. 1t continued, according to the Adj
yertiser, for thirteen hours. the rivals
being Frenchman and Kenluckian.
The byslanders and judges were talked
to sleep, and when they walked up in the
morning they found the Frenchman dead
and the Kentuckian whispering in his
ear.

An EPITAPH.-r rhe editor of the Bur
ington Recorder bears witness that he
recently discovered in hourishing city
on the line Of the New Jersey Railroad,
a grave-ya d in which stood tombstone,
on which was inscribed by weeping
friends the following touching and sim.
pie, yet exqusitrly Poetit ePjlaPh;-" LIZ
WAS A GOOD EGG"
The Recorder at once proceeded tC
gld gold by composing the following ad'
dition:
"Trcad lightly Ger this nest, VIC beg,
Or else, perhaps, you'll smash the egg"
We have no doubt as TO the fax o.
the tombstone case alluded to. Why
should we, says the Philadelphia BuIIe'
tin, when in another part Of New Jersey
there are in row, five tombStones bear
ing the following inscriptions:
"He waS a Brick"
"He vas Perfect Horse"
He maS Whole Team"
"He ,oaS Some Pumpkins"
"He wIs One of EN-"
Well He Was"
