every dinner.
More than all other condiments, although
tits sprinkled thinner,
Just so little woman is, if love will let
you win her,
There's not joy in all the world you will
not fad within her.
And as within the little rose you find the
sweetest dyes,
And in little grain of gold much price and
value lies.
AS from little balsam much odor doth
arise.
So in little woman, there's a taste of
Paradise.
The skylark and the nightingale. though
small and light of wing,
Yet MARBLE sweeter in the grove than all
the birds that sing;
And so a little woman, though a very little
thing.
Is sweeter far than sugar. and flowers that
bloom III spring.

ANOTHER SERIOUS CHARGE.-Such is
the rage for red flannel petticoats abroad,
says the New York Evening Post" that
DR.. CHARLES MACKAY has felt called up
ON to ro5uke it in little song, entitled the
FED Pctticoat and the White" 1t is need
less to say that the poetical doctor expresses
a decided preference for the white. The
handkerchief mania is also prevailing vio-
lemtiy, in consequence of which every lady
is forced to carry two-one for use in the
pocket, and Tie other for display in the
hand, They are edged with lace. Price
so francs, or $1,000 dozen. To carry
the more expensive article, boxes of pearls
haze been expressly invented. These are
worth from $50 to SIS. From these fig
urcs it will be seen that it will soon cost as
much ia keep a woman in handkerchiefs,
as it does to keep the rest of the family in
boots, buttons, and house-rent

Z Col. BENTON In WAsHINGTON.-Colo-
mel Benton appears on the avenue almost
every afternoon between four and five O.
clock. He sits as erect upon his beautiful
jet black horse as he did twenty years ago.
His literary labors seem to have invigora-
ted him physically and mentally. He con-
tinues to work industriously, as be says,
because idleness is so tiresome. The re-
markable powers of his memory are not
impaired at all by his great age. The i'm
petuosity of his character still bursts forth
when subject interesting to him is intro
duced.
