KISSING A QUEEN.-There is now on

KISSING A QUEEN.-There is now on
exhibition in our print shops an excel
lent picture Of Franklin at the Court OF
France; not however, critically true to
history, if my memory serves me right.
In this print Franklin stands, as he oug't.
in the foreground, he being the soul Of
the subject; his plain attire contrasts well
with brilliant court, embroidered from
head to foot, and bedizenrd with diamond
and hair powder. Franklin, l under
stand, was dressed in second rate home
spun. yarn stockings, substantial shoes,
! aud his hair of its native color; not at all
conscious of any inferiority, however, but
with that self possession which is the dis
tinguishing trait of well-bred people eve
rywhere. His native dignity was his
sole decoration. AS stranger, he mus,
have observed the common practice III
/, France, of kissing, even in the streets
and other places, when friends meet after
long or short absence, without regard
to sex. This kissing, however, is more
than our shaking hands. and is performed
by placing one cheek to another-once,
twice, or more, according to the intima
cy and feelings. 1t may be called cheek
by.jowling. Franklin may not have OBJ
served minutely the modns of this prac
tice, but have thought that kiss was a
kiss; or not thought at about it.
1t is said that he was reminded by one
of the dignitaries of the court that when
he was presented he must kiss the Queen,
who. it was said. was very kissabie o.
man. The Queen approached famiiarly
and very near-probably impeIled by
curiosity to see this handsome savage
Franklin. remembering his lesson, with
out reluctance put it into practice, in the
only way he had eve, beer taught to kiss,
and gave the Queen mighty Yankee
bdss on the lips, to the great amaze
ment and horriGcaton of the old maids,
| but to the great amusement of all others.
especially the King, who was delighted
with this savage simplicity and it is
said that he cried out-'Encore bis, da
cappo,' or DO it again. How many
more things were said or done it is not
my business now to relate or vouch for
Therefore [ only object to- the print for
not being truly historical, and especially
for not having chosen one of the most re-
markable of Franklin's court feats.
Some Of the wags of Paris had not the
most implicit faith in Franklin's simplici-
ty, and said he knew more than he pre-
tended to.

A SENSIBLE GIRL.-Some years since,
young lady, remarkable for her matur-
ity and good sense, the daughter of dis.
tinguished lawyer, and member of Com
gress from Worcester county, was placed
at young ladies' boarding school in the
neighborhood of Boston. Her unaffected
manner and sprightliness won the afec-
tions of many of the young ladies, who
were full of their kind Offices, until one
day they inquired the occupations of their
fathers. Our young friend perceiving
the drift of their inquiries, gave them to
understand that her father was a shoe
m ker when many of them were struck
with horror at her vulgar origin, and a
change took place in their conduct to-
wards hel. She, however, though fully
understanding them. remained quiet AT
t-r awhile. the t'ither of the young lady
vi tied the thool AS he was a good
looking man, and as they observed the

such deftrence and respect, the scholar.
were led to enquire of their iust,uctress
who he was and what was hi. business :;
and on b-ing told that he was the father
of Miss H., and that he was member of
Congress, they were filed with amaze
ment, and mm diately made an attempt
TO renew their attentions as formerly but
1t vas too late. She looked upon their
conduct with such contempt that they
were obliged to keep at respectable
ri tlSfa xyb IL
kindly. without regard to her fathers sup
posed occupation, were ever afterwards
her favortes.

Full LENGTH PAINTING PREyENrE,

FULL LENGTH PAINTING PREVENTED.
The new invention of steel frames ft r
ladies "jupons " to rest upon, is ofsuch
great weight for the hips that it is not
likely to become gene al; yet for those
who are liable to faint, it has a certain
advantage. There is no possibility Of
falling. Here is a case in point, taken
from Paris paper :-"At one of the
most elegant balls of the season in Rue
st. Honore, there was a great alarm
among the guests, occa.ioned by the fall
ing of chandelier in the reception room.
Fortunately no one was Immediately un-
der 1t, at the moment, but there was some
screaming with the. surprise of the crash,
and general laugh followed the discove-
ry that no one was hurt. But, an instant
af'er' an exclamation drew all eyes to a
corner OF the apartment, and there stood
the stont Baroness de -. her head fall
len back and her hands hanging ncrveIess
at her sides but otherwise appar emily on
her feet. The steel petticoat sustained
ter as complete as the semi punkin sus-
tains the candle on the hnsking- floor
She had fainted-but only in lust"

/ Shall Sleep.


Yes, I shall sleep, some sunny day,
When blossoms in the winds are dancing
And children at their cheerful play,
Heed not ihe mournful crowd advancing;
Up through the long and busy street,
They'll bear me to my last retreat.
Or else-it matter not-msy rave
The storm and sleet and wintry weather,
Above The bleak and new made grave,
Where care and lie down together;
Enough that shall know it not,
Beneath, in that dark, narrow spot.
Oh, sweet repose Oh, slunber blest
Oh, night of peace mo storm, no sorrow,
No heavy stirring in my rest,
To meet another weary morrow;
shall not note nor night nor dawn
But still, with folden hands, sleep on.
Then weep not, friends, what time ye lay
The cold, moist earth above my ashes;
Think what a rest awaits my clay,
And smooth the mound with fearless lashes
Glad that the wasted form within,
Has done at length with care and sin.
Think that with him the strife is Ger
Lifes stormy, struggling battle ended;
Hope that his soul had gained that shore,
To which, though weak, his footsteps tended
Breathe the dear hope above his sod,
And leave him TO his rsst-and God.

MIDs OF EGYPT ERECTED ?-This ques.-
ton has been much controverted. One
opinion is, that the Pyramids were the
granaries Of Joseph which may be COM
putcd by the smallness of the rooms, and
The time required in building. The Ara
bians generally think they were built by
King Sanrid, before the Deluge. as re-
fuge for himself and the public records
from the Flood. Josephus, the Jewish
historian, who wrote A. D. II, ascribes
them to his countrymen during their cap
tivity in Egypt. Shaw and Bryant be-
lieved them to be temples, ard the stone-
chest tank for holding water for purif-
catiol'. Pauw, contemporary with Shaw
and Bryant, considers the Great Pyramid
as the tomb Of Osiris. Others suppose
the Pyramids to have been associated
with worship; in conjunction with which
it may be mentioned, that in the Sand
wich Islands, Ellis, the missionary, saw
solid pyramidal structure, in front Of

tars fixed. But the greater number Of

Better would it have been for the poor
outcast, could she have summoned cour-
age to return to her parents and confess
all, and receive their sympathy; but she
could not go to them now, disgraced as
she was, and form link in the family
| chain Of affection, which would be forev-
err malred by the stain resting on her
life.
To her storm-lashed soul tho world
was dark, and phantoms of dispair rose
| up and crowded over her memory, until
she shrunk with deadly fear from the
night with its bright stars. and uttered
one prayer for her guilty soul-cast one
look upon the shining water-a faint cry
escaped from her lips-one splash-the
waters separated, and then closed over
the betrayed aud broken-hearted girl,
whose soul went up to stand before its

Not on her shall fall the curse of Heav-
en-, but on him who smiles at her ruin as
theme of manly triumph.
Morning came, and the pale, dripping
form was laid upon the sunny slope of
the green bank. Curious eyes gazed
upon her. Some pitied, and some with
rude jests passed on their way. But
amid the throng, there stood one being
silently witnessing the wreck his own
hand had made. and in that hours agony
| the betrayed was avenged. No longer
could he pass through the crowd light
hearted and free. A weight was upon
his soul. a mark upon his brow. Though
men saw it NOT, the whisperinss ef an
avenging spirit b'ealhed. its curse into
his ear. In the solemn stiffness of ght.
and in the nooutide's glare it was ever
with him. There is no escape from pun
i>hment for crime. and if men but paus-
