The weekly hawk-eye. [volume] (Burlington, Iowa) 1858-1860, 1859-01-04

ITO WEAR on THH STREET. This was,
once upon time, the climax OF recommend
ations Tor eay silk or gorgeous satin, or q
highly decorated robe OF any sort 1t was
the boasted destiny Of the proudest fabric
offered for feminine wear. Even vet, so large
is the floating population OF New \ ork, it is
not very uncommon to see ladies absolutely
dressed for the promenade Dresses Of
rich texture, and colored LOUNGES, here aud
there sweep the sidewalk; brocade and MORE
antique occasionally meet the eye in the cars
and stages, and thirty dollar bonncts are
faunted in the faces of passers by This is
now and then seen, though Broadway is
by no means the tulip bed it was wont to
be. But every season marks dImiuution
OF this absurd custom and now it cannot
fail to be observed, that our ladies of indis-
putable ton aid fashion rear only the plain
est dresses IN the promenade Neither a
stylish silk nor q gay bonnet is suitable for
a walk, and the parading Of such articles in
the street at once stamps tie awearer las not
much Of anybody. \. Express.

Makes . wash-eloth Of my collar
Scrnba the Garnet ON his kneea. +

Makes wash eloth Of my collar
Scrubs the carpet on his knees;
Hides mr. Arthrr-s;eals my Cooley
Feeds the fashion plates with chees;
: Hugs the picture dogs and kittens,
Tears the cuts that fail to please;
Gets the chess men,-spoils the work-box,
Trails the cotton spools for carts;
Still to show him books and pictures
Coaxes US with various arts,
And with ceaseless wiles and mischief,
Steals his way to all our hearts.
Oh, we love, We love him dearly,
We may seek through oil the land,
And not find baby Charlie
Half SO sweet as Charlie Rand.

i III ExoLIsRNAx's OPrNrox or A0RlcuL-
TUnn IN AMErkcA-fF From the speech of |
lord Napier, British Minister, at the U. $.
agricultural exhibition ct Richmond, Va l.
l cannot deny myself the pleasure Of express
sing to you the interest which, % mere
virtuoso In rural matters, have taken in
the external aspect of American husbandry.
In some respect the prospect il indeed often
unsatisfactory to the British eye. In the
new parts Cf the country the primitive
graces Of the landscape are ruthlessly viola
ted, while the artificial trimness to which
we are accustomed has not begun. We
mourn over the b:ackened and girdled giants
Of the forest, each Of which would be the
sylvan honor Of an English homestead-our
fastidious taste complains that the furrow is
not straight, that the wheat is not clean, that
the swamp is not drained, that the sward
bristles with obnoxious stumps, then there
is general absence of rooted green crops,
and we discover deficiency of sheep. In
the regions which have been longest under
the pillow, the vital forces of the soil seem to
have been frequently oyertaxed; the more
valuable cereals are abandoned, ana here

STORY concomitants Of the first epoch of til

ing On the other hand, | remark that in
many portions of the Union, there are exten-
sive tracts which would be considered opu-

and mangold wortzel, the English traveller is
gratifed by the spectacle of Indian corn, to-
bacco and the vine, and further South, by

all mag vincent and lucrative productions

breed of horses equals that of the mother
country, except, think for the purposes of
heavy draft; and the various races of cattle,
replenished by importation ofthe best breeds
of England, will be propagated Without de-
generecy, and will prove formidable rivals
to the parent stock.
In a country, where human labor is exor-
bitantly expensive, the greatest ingenuity is
exercised in the improvement Of tools and the
invention Of mechanical aids of substitutes,
and in this respect the triumphs of Ameri-
can contriyance are not only profitable at
home, bat are recognized and adopted by
foreign nations. Much gentlemen, has been
accomplished, and the future will furnish
still higher results. If we regard the dis
semination Of intelligence, the diffusion Of
taste tor rural pursuits, the increased APP
plcatlon of capital, the scientific inspection
! of soils, the discriminating use of manures
the development of the home market and
the general establishment of competitive eY-
hibitions. we may safely affirm that Ameri-
can agriculture has entered upon a period
which will not only be reparative where the
past was exhaustive, but will gradually car
ry the land in every quarter to high pitch
of productveness and beauty
