A PROPER FAsHloN.--Tbe Mage
zine of the Beau Monde," says
there is not much change " in gen.
tlemens pants, this month. This is
well. A gentleman who cannot get
along without change in his pants.
and keep good seat in the dead-head
omnibus, to the shows, and concerts !;
is no gentleman. A gentleman-so
to speak should be able to navigate,
with his own inherant motive powers
without extraneous aid. He should
study hydraulics, and the Newtonian
philosophy. It is vulgar to have
" change low minds only deal in it.
As ancient Pistol would say Base is
the slave that pays Acting upon
this established principle in modern
philosophy the true gentleman should
scorn to wear any change about him.
He should buy his goods at the best
establishment ia town, and after they
are rolled up in the brown paper par
cel-should leave The door without
even wink at the astonished clerk
who has perhaps, to charge himself
with them. He should drink at the
best bar, and grumble about the quail
ity Of the liquor, leaving the counter
with self-sufficient air, wiping his
rose tinted lips with an unpaid for
cambric--he should say: "That's
for me, Luke make mark of it,
Thisis becoming the gravity ofthe mod
ern gentleman, and be- who has not
the moral courage. to do this, should
not undertake the character. 'Cbange.n
why the very word is Plebian and vul-
gar. A gentleman, should never have
in his breeches less than a " fifty"
and that-to be full passport ought
to be counterGt.

MONEY AND CoRN.-The precise
period of the invention Of money is
unknown but from the necessity and
obviousness of the thing, it is supposed
to have taken place at very early
period Of the world. Coins are evil
IDENTIFY not of equal antiquity. In ef-
feet the very commodities themselves
we're the first moneys, j. e., were cur
rent for one another by way Of ex.
change. That purchases we're thus
made in the time of the Trojan war,
we learn from Homer:
Each, in exchange, proportional treasure gave;
Some brass, or iron, some an OK, or slave.
For Liomeds brass arms, of mean device,
For which nine oxen paid "a vulgar price,
He gave his own, of gold divinely wrought,
hundred ievees the shining purchase brought"
Hence it may be inferred that at the
period allnded to, namely, about 1854
years B. c., the trade of the countries
was carried ON by exchange in gross
brass, oxen, slaves, etc. Money was
FIRST made Of gol9 and silver at Argos
in Greece. SO B. G. The first coin
ing Of silver took place at Rome, 269,
and Of gold 206 years B. G.

is loud in Southern education, because
he is one of the "bluest'' of them all.
As the accomplished head of all the
Public Education in Louisiana, he is a
rare model. This onerous department

well under his management, that his
services have not been asked for in
the office since the Democracy honor
