Plaim Talk for tie Lulies-The West
crn Editors are certainly very free speaking
individuals, and their rhetoric, like the
bowie knives Of some Of them, is sharp
and to the point. One of them speaking Of
low ncckcd dresses and short sleeves,
says:
"The prevailing fashion among the la
dies, which transposes an angel into a
model artist, is universally detcstcd by every
gentleman whose good opinion a lady
should desire. 1t blunts the finer feelings
of both sexes, and is disadvantage to the
wearcr. A round, plump, white arm is
beautiful and may be admired with all pro-
priety; but an arm shaped like three
cornered file with red elbows, is not beautiful,
and in competition with a Spanish garrote
would stand no chance of being elected to
ones neck. An alabaster base half con-
cealed by n coqnetish collar is the most
bewitching sight in the world; but large
expanse Of bony shoulders, painted like a
patent ham, with its contiguous unprotected
territory, has about as many attractions as
newly painted Windsor chair.

Ep Master B., a remarkably smart stu
dent at Harvards, is another gentleman by
instinct" lie once said to his mother:
"Isay, mama, where's Bill Z" -
"My son, don't let me hear you say Bill
again. Yoa should say William" 20.
Well, mother, where's William r.
ain the yard, feeding the ducks"
80, yes, I see him now. But, mother
what makes ducks have such broad, fiat
Williams r.
"Go out with your brother, directly, YOU

Sad Story.-Tbe Troy, N. Y, papers tell
a sad story. A young lady Of that city
was engaged to be married to gentleman
from Long Island, and the wedding day
was appointed, but on account of the death
of brother the ceremony was postponed.
Again the wedding day was appointed,
when the death of sister occasioned an
other postponement. For third time a
day was appointed, and before it arrived the
intended bridegroom fell before the ''insa.
tiate archer" leaving the thrice stricken
mourner desolate indeed.
