Social SYMPATHY READING PARTIES.
Mrs. Swisshelm says in her letters to
country girls, ut is very natural to like to
90 to parties, and it is very right
Now, every neighborhood in the country
town and villages get up a little party, to
meet once week, first at one neighbor's
house. and then another's. Let all dress
to lock aswell as possible, and those who
are hosts for the evening have some nice
refreshments. Let old and young come,
for an old peoples party, or young peo-
pies party, is too stiff, and when yuo meet
at your party, read. Let the lady in whose
house it is in, ask whomsoeyer she thinks
best, TO read or regularly by turns. Read
anything funny, on anything good you find
through the week Laugh at one anoih-
er's mistakes, and when any word occurs
that any one does not understand let him
or her ask about it. If no one knows it,
hunt for it in the dictionary; or let every
one write it down, take it home, and find
out the meaning before the next evenings
meeting.
Nothing is more agreeable than one Of
these reading parties. 1t accustoms all &c
reading aloud; and what is more pleasant
in country home, in long evenings, than
talking with the great and good of al
ages. We intend beginning these reading
parties in our neighborhood in week Of
two, and more fun is expected than yot
eau find in one of your stiff parties, whert
YOU have to sit like row Of cups and >au
GERS on dresser, looking at one another
IN mute despair, and afraid to move, fol-
fear You may get broke, or else play ''Deal

THE DULLNRss AT PHILADELPHIA

The well informed Philadelphia cores
poudent OF the New York Tribune, thus
sketches the notable events occurring IN
the Brotherly City, during the first weeks
OF summer:
Meantime, though money, according TO
the newspapers, continues abundant, busl-
ness is deploringIy stagnant. The ship.
ping interest is uncommonly depressed, and
business Of most kinds along the wharves
is not paying expenses. The great DRY
goods houses no longer exhibit the petli-
eric assortments of two years ago; and
cash, in spite Of its reputed abundance
commands huge discount from all regu-
lar prices, in The purchase OF merchandise
Some houses here, which for years past
have sold exclusively for cash, even now
are doing large and protitsbie trade
The revulsion caught them owing nothing
and with nothing owing to them; they
consequently suffered no loss except IN the
depreciation Of the stock they happened to
have on hand. But this was comparative
" small, because they had purchased so
low for cash that this depreciation was
quickly made good by the rapid and VIC
lent turns which occurred il the market a
round them. These houses stood Ike
rocks in the general breaking down Of all
credit. could mention Names and give
YOU even the amount of their annual sales,
but this would be personal and inviduous.
1t is remarked lie, however, and worthy TO
be noted, that nearly all of them began
with slender capitals, and that they have
rigidly adhered to cash, both in buying
and selling.
The peryading dullness is abont being
aggravated by the annual stampede to the
watering places and mountain retreats
All these have multiplied with the rail
roads, until good singing hot June al
most depopt lates us, so easily can thous
ands get away fom the city. Money,
however, is ralher too scarce among Il e
masses to Justify the Wholesale indulgence
Of former years. People still continue to
economics; bills are to be seen on houses
all over the city, showing that families have
either migrated to other places or have
turned in double or treble. Yet the faith
in future is so strong that capitalists are
investing money in new buildings to an
extent not anticipated four months ago,
the great study being to secure safety to
investments, even at moderate rate of in
terest. AS to stocks, they are sluggish
and improbable to the spectators, and
were it not for Reading Railroad, their &C.
cupation would be almost gone. Its vibra-
tions within ninety days have been terrific,
al least TO some, but quite as satisfactory
TO others. What will be the end of
Reading, it is probably not difficult to
say.

Preserving Gathered F5overs.-For the
benefit of our lady readers, we copy the
following recipe for preserving the beauty
of gathered flowers: Procure a fiat dish
Of porcelain, into which pour water; place
upon it vase of flowers, and over the
vase bell glass, with its rim in the water.
The air that surrounds the flowers, being
confined beneath the bell glass, is constant
ly moist with water, that rises into it in the
form of yapor. As fast as the water be-
comes condensed it runs down the side of
the bell-glass into the dish !; and if means
be taken to enclose the water ON the out
side of the bell-glass, so as to prevent its
evaporating into the air of the sitting room,
the atmosphere around the flowers is con-
tinually damp. The plan is designated the
"Hopean Apparatus" The experiment
may be tried on small scale by inverting
tumbler over rosebud in saucer of wa
ter.
