RETIREMENT OF HON. ]. r. GID
" DINGS.

:, A Washington correspondent of the
Tribune of the 22d inst. alludes to tie
many changes which will take place in
the next House of Representatives. Mr.
g., has sat twenty years in the House.
and is now historic charicter. We clip
a portion of the article.
Mr.. Giddings entered Congress in the
midst of the contest about the Right OF
Petition. He followed the lead of Adams
in his championship of this right. He
shared with him in the perils of the fight
and the glories of the triumph. He bore
distinguished part in the subsequent
conflicts over the Annexation of Taxes,
tie Oregon Joint Occupation, and the
Wilmot Proviso.
The country recollects the agitation
which sprung from the enfranchisement
of the negroes Of the brig Creole, by the
British authorities in Bermuda, when
driven into one of its ports by stress of
weather, while voyaging from Virginia
to New Orleans, with cargo of slaves.
In March, 1842, Mr.. Giddings offered,
in the House, nine resolutions touching
this case, and affirming that all attempts
to regain possession of, or to re.enslave
these negroes, were unauthorized by the
Constitution and laws of the United
States, and incompatible with our national
honor. On reading the resolutions,
wild storm broke out, raging nearly all
day, in the midst of which he withdrew
the obnoxious paper. Mr.. Bolts drafted,
and endeavored to offer resolution with
q wordy preamble) declaring that "tbis

WONAN'S LOOKS.

Appearances are very deceitful, and
it is really fact that every body cannot
tell all about woman's character by the
cut Of her physiognomy. A writer in
Dickens Household Words, who appears
TO have given good deal of thought to
the matter, discourseth, as follows:
knew a woman who might have been
the ancestress of all the rabbits in all the
hutches in England-a soft, downy look
ing, fair, placid woman, with long hair,
looking down, like ears, and an innocent
face of mingled limidity and surprise
She is a sweet-tempered thing, always
eating or sleeping--who breathes hard
when she goes up stairs, and who has as
few brains in working order as human
being can get on with. She is just a
human rabbit, and nothing more; and
she looks like one. We all know the
setter woman-the best of all the types
graceful, animated, we'll formed, firm
treap but light one, and who can turn
her hand to anything. The true setter
woman is always married, she is the
real woman of the world. Then there
is the Blenheim spaniel, who covers up
her face in her ringlets, and holds down
her head when she talks, and is shy and
timid. And there is the greyhound
woman, with lantern-jaws and braided
hair and large knuckles, generally rather
distorted. There is the CIT woman, too;
elegant, steal,hy, clever, caressing, who
walks without lions, and is great in the
way of endearment; no thumbs are so
supple as hers, no back bone so wonder
fully plant, no voice so sweet, no man.
ner so endearing; she extracts your Sc
crets from you before you know you have
spoken, half an hours conversation with
that graceful purring woman has reveal
ed to her every the most dangerous fact
it has been your life's study to hide
The cat woman is dangerous animal.
She has claws hiuden in that velvet paw,
and she can paw blood when she un-
sheaths them. Then there is COW faced
woman, generally of Phlegmatic temper
ament and melancholy disposition, given
to pious books and teetotalism. And
there is the lurcher woman, The strong
sirong-minded females, who
wear rough coats, with mems pockets
and large bone buttons, and whose bon-
nets to fling a special defiance to both
beauty aud fashion. have never seen
a true lion headed woman, excepting in
that black Egyptian figure sitting with
her hands on her two knees, and grinning
grimly on tine Museum werld, as Bubastis,
the lion headed goddess of the Nile. !

ETIQUETTE.

1st. Before you bow 10 lady in the
street, permit her to decide whether you
may do SO or not, by at least a look Of
recognition.
ed. When your companions bow to a
lady, you should do the same. When a
gentleman bows to lady in your COM
pany, always bow to him in return
Southern Journal.
Nothing is so lily understood in
America as those conventional laws Of
society, so well understood and practised
in Europe. Ladies complain that gen.
tleman pass them in the street unnoticd,
when, in fact, the fault arises from their
breach of politeness. 1t is their duty to
do the amiable first. for it is privilege
which ladies enjoy Of choosing their OWE
associates or acquaintances. No gen.
tleman likes to risk the cut in the street
by lady through premature salute.
So many ladies. it would seem, don't
know their trade of politeness. Meeting
ladies in the street, whom one has casu-
ally met in company, they seldom bow
unless he bows first; and when a gen.
tleman ever departs from the iule Of
good breeding, except, OCCASIONALLY, by
the way ofexperiment, his acquaintances
do not multiply. but he stands probably
charged with rudeness. A lady must be
civil to a gentleman into whose company
she may casually be placed; but gen.
tleman is not upon this to presume upon
an acquaintanceship the first time he af-
teruard meets her in the street. Ifit be
her will, she gives some token Of recog-
milton, when the gentleman may bow ;
otherwise he must pass on and consider
himself a stranger. No lady need hesi-
tate to bow to a gentleman, for ne will
promptly and politely answer, even if he
has forgotten his fair saluter; no one but
a brute can do otherwise: should he pass
on rudely, his character is declared, and
there is cheap riddance. Polit,ne or
good breeding is like law-the reason Of
things ADany AtIas.

ENTERPRIsING LEGISLATURE.

The following Bill was printed and
circulated in the Connecticut House oI
Representatives: The scientific terms
used are beyond our comprehension; but
we presume those interested in the noble
art referred to will understand them:
HOUSE BILL NO. 999.
GRMERAL ASSEMBLY, May Session, 1853,
An Act to encourage FAIR Play and
promote honesty among Shutters.
Be il enacted By the Senate and House Of
Representatives. tn General Assembly

ration termed "milking." or in any
other way calculated TO impose upon
the ansophistieated, he shall forfeit the
amount of his s'ante," and be debar-
red from the privilege of '.going 6st-
ter" for the Is hands next succeeding.

option of such losers.

A QUESTION.

lfyou ask TIE children what they burn
forlllghting, one will say TALON, another
oil, another can.phsns gas. The truth is
that all burn gas; and the main differ
ence is, that in some cases it is manufac-
tured for them, and sent to the house in
iron,PlPes; while in others they manufac-
ture it for themselves, in such ways that
it burns and gives light as fast as made.
If tallow, for instance, is heated to a
certain degree it turns to gas and then
burns. his pretty much so with oil, lard,
pine knots, anything used for the purpose.
These things are first turned to gas and
then burned, and whatever the gas is
made from, it is pretty much the same
substance as the gas used in cities and
large towns. If you would put tallow
into retort and heat it with the exclu-
sion of air, it would be converted to gas,
and might be sent round the city for light
ing, and the only objection to it would be
that it would be too expensive. But il
you heat small portion of it at time,
in the open air, and contrive to have an
other portion heating while that is burn
ing, and so on, you then have domestic
gas mandatory, to make gas and 10
burn it as fast as you make it. This is
done by putting iallow, beeswax, or sper-
macetti around wick, or by saturating
the wick with oil, and then setting the
wick on fire.
1t is not tallow, or other material OF
the candle, that burns, but the gas made
from it. The children can prove this by
a very simple experiment, one that they
can perform for themselves. Extinguish
burning candle. A stream OF smoke
and gas, will rise from the half extin-
guished wick. Touch that, at distance
of two or three inches, with the blaze of
another candle, you see it will take fire,
and the fire will follow the stream back
to the extinguished candle and reiight it.
There is another little experiment, max
ing water boil with ice, which will
amuse the children, and will instruct
them, if some one will explain the reason.
Fill an old oil flask, or any glass bottle
that is not worth much, (for you may
break it,) half full Of boiling water aud
cork it tightly. Let it stand on the ia
BILE till cooled considerably below the
boiling point. Then apply to the outside
snow, ice or very cold water, and it will
boil hummingly. The application of
heat would not make it boil, the applica-
ton Office or cold water will, can any
of the childrentell why.-Fdrnser's Mag.

shouted, "I'll shoot him! by Cd, I'll
shoot himl" The peril of Giddings was
imminent. Quick as thought, Mr.. Csus-
inc of Maryland, his hand on his pistol,
leaped into the aisle between Black and
Giddings to defend the latter; Kenneth
Rayner of North Carolina, also armed,
took position at the left hand of Gid
dings; Charles Hudson of Massachusetts
planted himself on his right; while Solo
mon Foot Of Vermont. now in the Senate,
stood Immediately behind him, to prevent
an assault from that quarter. And there,
surrounded by Causine and Rayner of
the South, and Hudson and Foot, of the
North, with Black, Dawson and other
armed and incensed men in front, stood
Giddings, his head towering above the
crowd, delivering his speech with great
valor and entire self possession, and never
from the beginning to the close of the
melee, losing the thread of his subject,
except when, as Black approached him,
he hurled at him the defiance, "CoME
ON! THE PEOPLE OF ONO DON'T SEND
CowARDs HERE !"
1t is understood that Mr.. Giddings
will spend his remaining days in prepar-
ing a work that shall depict the scenes
that have passed before his eye, and in
so many of which he has borne leading
part, during his Twenty Years in the
House of Representatives," He cannot
render higher service 10 the country.
nor make more valuable contribution to
the great cause. Let us hope that he
will not take for his model the heavy
volumes of Mr.. Benton on a similar
theme.

THE WAY IT'S DONE.

An "old line moralist" does not believe
in waltzing. Listen to him while he
shows how the thing is done.
A group ofsplendid ones is on the floor,
and lovingly mated. The gents encir
Gle their partners waists with one arm.
The ladies and gentlemen stand close,
face to face. The gents are very erect,
and lean little back. The ladies lean
little forward. (Music.) Now all
wheel, whirl, circle, and curl. Feet
and heels of gents 60 rip, rap, tipity tip.
Ladies' feet go tipPity tip, tipity tip
Then all 60 ripity, siPpity, clippity, tip
pity, bippity, skippity, hoppity, jumPPity,
bumPpity, thump. Ladies fly off by
centrifugal momentum. Gents pull Ia
dies hard and close. They reel. swing,
slide, sling, look tender, silly, look dizzy.
Feet fly, hoops fly, dresses fly, all fly
1t looks tuggity, pullity. squeezily, rud-
bity, rip. The men look like cross te-
tween steelyards and climber jack
beetles.
The maidens tuck down their chins
very low, or raise them exceeding high.
Some grin, some smile, some giggle,
some pout, some sneer, and all sweat
freely. The ladies' faces are brought
against those of the men, or into their
bosoms, breast against breasI, nose against
nose, and toes against toes. Now they
go it again, making sound like georgey,
porgey, derey, percy, ridley, pidey,
coachey, poachey. This dance is moi
much but the extras are glorious. II
men were women, there would be no
such dancing. But as they are only
men, the thing goes on by woman's love
of it.
A secular writer says: There is no
established standard of propriety about
the matter. If were lady, 1 might
object 10 these dances. but being a man
| do not. We certainly ought to be sat-
isfed if they are.
