1~When foreigners come here to enjoy
American hospitality, snd then publish abusive
books about us, there is no particular occasion
to repeat what they say. The work lately
published by Miss Murray is an exception to
the mass Of foreign speculations on America;
although it contains many hard hits, 1t is in
main discriminating As to the frailty Of
American ladies, she says:
l am already tempted to contravert the
assertion Of American ladies, that their
generally delicate health is to be attributed
to climate. They may have severer win
a.. tiers and warmer summers than ours, but
these are accompanied by the advantages
of less damp and Of brighter sunshine. /
have not had an hour too warm for exer-
else during any part Of the day, for though
the sun is brighter, it does not always
beam SO furiously with us. The climate of
Massachusetts, seems to me charming one,
and I believe another generation will dis
cover its merits because entertain hopes
that the children now growing up will ac-
quire more hardy habits. The evil am
speaking Of cannot be rcmedied in a day !;
and l find American ladies are at this mo
ment so little informed with regard to nat
,iral productions, and so untitled for coun-
try pursuits, that their ignorance of these
matters is at once the evidence and cause
of their lack of physical strength"
OF ladies travelling alone she remarks:
yT'I have found out a reason why ladies
travelling alone must be extravagantly dres-
scd-without that precaution they meet
with 70 attention and little civility--deci-
dedly much less than in any other country.
So here it is not as women, but as ladies
they are to be cared for--and this in Dem
ocratic America"

HgB-At the festival of the Provincial
Grand Lodge, at Glasgow, Sir A. Alison
mentioned that during the assault on the
Redan, a small party Of soldiers led up to
one of the guns placed in recess were re.
eeivcd by body Of Russians, and the En-.
glish officer was about to be bayoneted
when, CHANGING to catch the hand of the
Russian officer, he had presence OF mind
enough to give him masonic grip. The
Russian in moment struck up the bayonet
of his soldier, led his newly found brother
to the rear, and treated him with all the
kindness of mason.

A REMARKABLE WATcH.-Att the French
Exposition there was watch which crea-
ted much interest and admiration. 1t tells
the name and day of the month, the equa-
ton OF the time; is repeater, striking the
minute as well as the hour; is thermometer
of toerable accuracy, and winds itself up
by the action of its own movement. The
price of this most ingenious piece of work
manship is thirty thousand francs.
