Mr.. ORR's ADDREss.-A crowded and
brilliant auditory filled the Institute Hall
last night to listen Ito Mr.. Orr's address.
lie spoke an hour and quarter, and du-
ring the entire time was listened to with
fixed attention. His leading topic was the
necessity to the wealth and prosperity of
society of Il proper distribution of labor
and capital. He showed how disregard
to this necessity in South Carolina had i'm
paired her progress, and thrown her chief
city, Charleston, in the rear Of the other cit
les Of the Union: that Agriculture had alb
sorbcd all other pursuits to its own injury.
He reviewed, in sensible manner, the pres
cnt condition of Manufactures, Mechanic
Arts, and Agriculture, and upon each was
made suggestions of value and pressing in
terest 1t would be injustice TO Mr.. Orr to
attempt an analysis OF his truly admirable
addresses, as it is to be published by the
Institute Charleston Mercury.

MISCELLANY.

Nor1oNs OF BEAurY.-The Japanese
women gild their teeth, the Indians paint
them red, whilst in Guzurat the pearl Of the
teeth to be beautiful must be dyed black.
The ladies Of Arabia stain their fingers and
toes red, their eyebrows black, and their
lips blue. In Persia, they paint black
streak round the eyes, and ornament their
faces with various figures. In Greenland
the women color their faces with blue and
yellow, whilst tho Hottcntot women paint
in compartments of red and black IIindoo
females, when desirous Of appearing particu-
larly lovely, smear themselves with a mix
turo of saffron, turmeric and grease. In
ancient Persia an aquiline nose was often
thought worthy of the crown but the Su-
matran mother carefully flattcns the nose
of her daughther. An African beauty must
have small eyes, thick lips, and a large flat
nose.
