SIMPLICITY OF DRrss.-LovlIness never
appears to SO good an advantage as when
set off with simplicity of dress. No artist
ever decks his angels with towering feath-
els and gaudy jewelry, and our dear hui.
man angels, if they would make good their
title to that name, should carefully aviod or
naments, which properly belong to Indian
squaws, and African princes. These tin.
sslries may serve to give effect upon the
ballroom floor, but in daily life there is no
substitute for the charm Of simplicity. A
vulgar taste is not to be disguised by gold
or diamonds. The absence Of true taste
and refinement of delicacy, can not be COM
pensated, for by the possession Of the most
princely fortune. Mind measures gold, but
gold cannot measure mind. A modest wo-
man will dress modestly, and really refined
and intellectual woman will bear the marks
Of careful selection and faultless taste.

Gev. WISE AND THE PREsIpEHr.-In
one Of our Southern exchanges we find a
long letter from Gov. Wise on the political
ssues of the day, the cream of which at the
conclusion is summed up in the following
paragraph:
The President bids high. To flibustsrs
he offers Cuba and the Isthmus and North
Mexico; to the West Pacific Railroad TO
tbs North protection to iron and coarse
woolens; and to the great commercial centres
the power Of Capitalization by the obvious
uses Of a bankrupt act to State banks. Yes
terdsy Biddle was monster, and to-day q
few Wall street bankers can expand and
contract upon US more like q vice that he
did; and what would they not do if they
could force the poor provinces when they
please into bankruptcy? have written
this right on, and you may do what you
please with it. Yours truly,
seasse HENRY A. WISE.

War AN EpIroR MIGHT HAVE BEEN
Holland the editor of the Springfield
MASS Republican, has been up to Yer
mount where he came from, and he thus
sketches what he should have been, if he
had not left home and become an editor:
"Your correspondent would have grown
stalwart and strong with horny hands and q
face as black IS the ace of spades. He
would have taught school winters, worked
on farm summers, and gone out haying
fifteen days in July, and taken for pay the
iron work and running gear of a wugOn.-
AT two and twenty, or whereabouts, he
would have begun to pay, attentions to a
girl with father worth two thousand dollars,
and spit curl on her ferehead-a girl who
always went to singing school, and set IN
the seats ind sung without opening her
mouth-a pretty girl anyway. Well after
seeing her home from singing two or three
years, taking her to Fourth Of July cels-
bratiOn, and getting about hundred dollars
together, he would marry her ard settle
down. Years would pass away, and that
girl with the spit curl would have eleven
children-just as sure as you live--seven
boys and four girls. We should have had
time in bringing them up, but they would
soon be able to do the milking and help their
mother wash days, and l, getting independ-
ent at last and feeling little stiff in the
Joints, would be elected q member of the
Legislature, having been an assessor and
school committee for years. In the evening
ofmy days, with my pipe in my mouth,
thirteen barrels of cider in the cellar, and
newspaper in my hands, should sit and
look over the markets, through a pair of
gold mounted spectacles, wonder why such
a strange silly piece as this should be
published"
