TnE complimentary benefit to Mrs. Duftield
k,t night, was very fiattering testimonial to
that lady of the high estimation in which she is
held by our citizens, and must have been very
s.atiiying indeed to her feeling Coming among
Us an entire stranger, she has won her way, by
her talent and womanly actions, to the esteem
and respect of all. The house was better filled
than ever before, the boxes presenting galaxy
Of beauty and fashion. The play, Macbeth,
was decided success as a whole, and the two
leading characters we're probably never better
PLAYED in the Western country. The piece was
enthusiastically appIauded during its perform
ancc, and its Close Mrs. Dufield, in answer TO
tie loudly expressed desire of the audience, APP
rcarea before the curtain, and her
appreciation of the good wishes of her friends,

Modern Homes

There is nothing that indicates
the social progress of civilized mrn
more CLEARLY than the superiority Of
the nlodern over the ancient homo.
Contrast the neat, comfortable tene-
ments of the present day, with their
carpeted rooms, handsome fre-places,
easy chairs, soft, sleep-seducing beds
and pillows with the accommodations
Of even mobiles and princes two or
three Centuries ago! Even as late as
TIE reiga Of Queen Elizabeth, the
greater part of the houses in England
were constructed Of rude basket
work Of willows, daubed over with clay
The floors were Of earth, and the
queens bed chamber had no carpet
except rashes. Very few houses had
any chimneys; stools without backs
were chiefly used as seats; and the
beds (so-clIled) were Of straw, to
which the more luxurious added logs
of wood for pillows. Nice lodgings,
truly! We really feel for the priya-
tons of our ancestors, and tlrning
lazily over on nice feather bed yes
teraay morning. We could not help
wondering how the deuce they stood
il Then, only think Of the wretches
using their fingers FOR forAs-the met
al articls being unknowa prior TO the
17th centurys What a blessing 1t is
to I've in an era when comfort and
luxury have been reduced to science. |
If rents and living are high, and the
taxes upwards Of considerable, think
of the qaid pro gao, thou grumbler,
aud thank thu stars that thy lot was
not cast III that chimneyless, carpet
less, soflless. bedless, forkless age, !
yclspt the age eff chivalry. IFs do.
