''SMAIL SWEET CoURrEsIEs OF ILFE"-We
commend the following worthy the attention
Of the faircr part of our readers:
Ertroct .from It letter of the late H'm H'rt fa
his Daughter.
II want to tell you a secret The way to
make yourself pleasing to others, is TO show
that you care for them The whole world is
like te miller at Mansfield, who cared for
.nobody-no, not he-because nobody cared for
him And the whole world will serye. yonzso.
- gnu Eirc Them fssc same cnnse. Let screry~
oac, therefore, see that you do care for them.
by showing them whet Sterne SO happily calls
the small sweet courtesies oflife-those cou--
teses in which there is no parade whose voice
is too still to tease, and which manifest them-
selves by tender and affectionate looks and
little kind acts Of attention-giving others the
preference in every little enjoy at the table,
in the field, walking, sitting standing This
is the spirit that gives to your time Of life, and
to your sex its sweetest charms. Itconstitutes
the sum total of all the witchcraft Of woman.
Let the world see that your first care is for
yourself, and yon spread the solitude Of the
Upas tree around you, in the same way, by the
emanation of poison which kills all the juices
of affection in its neighborhood. Such girl
may be admired for her understanding and ac-
complishments, but she will never be beloved.
The seeds of love can never grow but under
the warm and genial influence of kind feelings
and affectionate manners. Vivacity goes q
great way i'm young persons 1t calls attention
to her who displays it, and if it then be found
associated with generous sensblity, it's exe-
cution is irresistible.
On the contrary, if it be found in alliance
with a cold, naughty, selfish heart, it produces
no further effect, except an adverse one.. At
tend to this my daughter. 1t flows from o
heart that feels for you all the anxiety that
parent feel and not without this hope
which constitutes the parents highest happi-
ness. May God protect and bless you:
Your afectionate father, WM. WRIT.
F.. PAcK1Se EGGs TO K KEEp-One of the best
ways of packing eggs to keep long, is to pack
them in charcoal dust, in boxes the longest
diameter perpendicular, set them in a cool dry
place and turn the boxes over as often US once
in two days Try it, but do not set the boxes
where they will be forgotten and the turning
neglected Where this attention would be too
great an Inconvenience, it will be found to an
swer an excellent purpose to pack the eggs in
large earthen jars crooks, and to fill them
via, l;rnc-water made by pouring water upon
quick-iime and letting it stand 4 day or two
covered; it may be decanted without great care
to pour it off clear. The lime deposits from
the solution upon and in the pores Of the she'll
aud keeps the eggs perfectly sweet for long
time, even though the yolk settles down upon
one side against the she'll
A READING PEoPLE.-Y Yesterday morning
counted, in the cabins of one of the Brook
lyn ferry boats, nintysix gentlemen, Gall in fact
who there,) and out of that number
seventy-two had papers reading. Now, we
will venture the assertion the same proportion
of reading travellers, men who were determined
to read as they ran, cannot be counted on any
like occasion the world over. We have had
| an opportunity to know little Of the character
| of the English aud French in their daily busi-
| ness railroad and steamer excursions, and never
| witnessed anything like the sight. But it might
have been produced partly by the cheapness
| ofour papers, yet we are the greatest newspaper
readers the globe; no doubt of that.
| AN Honest FLAG.-An old Californian ar
| rived in San Francisco, the other day, fresh
from the Mines and dropped in at Republican
Club Meeting. patriotic individual had the
hoor and among other good things said, eve
go i'll for free speech, free soil, and Fremont
'.-n your free monte" said the miner,
getting up in disgust, "thats what broke me
the last time was in San Francisco" He
soon brought up at Democratic Club, and
looked in to see what the row. Over tho
presidents chair banner, with inscrip-
ton painted on it, "Euck and Brcek" read the
green one. We'll that's honest, anyhow
said he. "If that flag had been hung up when
l was here last, never would have bucked
agin the tiger in the world."-Irue Californian.
