THE WAY TO SPOIL GIRLS.

If .,v narept wishes recipe how to spoil
d.nebters i can be easily and readily given, and
can be proved by the experience OF hundreds to De
certain and eficacious.
l. BE always telling her, from earliest childhood
what beautiful creature she Is 1t Is capltal
way of initiating the vanity OF little girl to De
constantly exclaiming, CHOW pretty! Chluren
understand fattery, even when IN the nurse arms
and the evil is done the character In Its earliest
formation.
2. Begin as soon as she can waddle around, to
rio her up in fashionable clothes and rich dresses
Put hoop upon her at once, with all the artlhclal
adornments of fouEces and feathers and flowers
and curls Fondness for dress will thus become a
prominent characteristic and Will usurp the whole
attention of the young immortal, and be long
step towards spelling her.
3. Let her visit so much that she finds no
happiness at home, and therefore will not be apt
to stay there and learn home duties. 1t is capital
thing for spoiled daughter to seek all her hap
pness in visiting and change of place and associates
She will thus grow as useless modern fashionable
parents delight that they should be.
t. Let her reading consist OF novels OF the
nauseatingly sentimental kind She will be spolled
sooner than if she perused history or science Her
heart will be occupied by fictitious scenes and
faelinos her mind filled with unrealities; and her
aims placed on fashion and dress and romantic
attachments.
s. Be careful that her education gives her a
smattering of all the accomplishments, without the
slightest knowledge of the things really useful IN
life Your daughter won't be spoiled so long as
she has real desire to be useful III the world, and
aims at its accomplishment. If her mind and time
are occupied in modern accomplishments, there
will be no thought of the necessity and virtue OF
| being of some real use to somebody pervadlng her
heart, and she will be soon ready as spoiled
daughter.
g. AS a consequence, keep her in profound
ignorance of all the useful arts of housekeeping
impress upon her mind that it is vulgar to do any
thing for herself, to learn how anything is done
in the house A spoiled daughter should never
be taught the mysteries Of the kitchen-such
things lady always leaves to the servants 1t
would be 'vulgar" for her to know how to dress
trout or shad to bake, to wash, to iron, to sweep
to wiring the neck of live chicken, pluck it and
prepare it for breakfast, or to do anything that
! servants are hired to do. As mistress OF a house
it is her duty to sit velvet sofa all day, in the
midst of a pyramid of silks and founccs, reading
the last flash novel, while her domestics are
performing the labors Of the house.
Tocomplete the happiness ofyour &poiIeddonghtc'
marry her to a bearded youth with soft hands,
who knows as little how to money as she does
to save it. Her happiness will be finished for hel
life tme.-HorDord Courant.

THE CROPs.-The wheat, corn, and oat crops
in Orange, Alamance, Guilford, Davidson and
Forsyth are looking well, and the promise at pres
ent is good yield The wheat is al in full head.
We saw some fields that were ripe, and some wheat
that had been cut and shocked.
We learn that the crop of tobacco in the Caswell
and Rockingham country has been considerably in
crcased-in Caswell, it is thought, at least one
third on last years crop. The late fine season was
highly beneficial to the crops of all kinds, and
especially opportune for the tobacco planters,
who were enabled to set out their plants with the
best prospect of a good stand.-Raleigh Standard

DEPLoRABLE CONDITION OF TIE Pixies PEAK
EMIGRANTs.-The regular correspondent of the
Democrat, writing from Denver City on the 9th
ultimo, recounts the most deplOrable condition OF
affairs on the Plans.-Many of the emigrants are
diving from starvation, while the others subsist
ing on pFckly pears and wild onions, found along
the road.
The stage agent reports picking up man named
Blue who was reduced to skeleton from starvation.
On recovering he gave most lamentable account
of his adventures He started in company with
two of his brothers for the mines. One Of them
died on the road, and the remaining two SO
far bordering a state Of starvation, that thy
ate his body.-Another died, and he in turn
nearly devoured by the survivor.
A man named Gibbs had reached the mines IN
starving condition, and expressed the opinion that
his party, nine in number, had all persisted. Many
graves were seen along the route Much property
has been destroyed or abandoned on the road.
The writer of the letter before referred to says
the number of departures from the mines is about
equal to the arrivals. About FIVE hundred of the
returning emigrants reached St. Joseph Saturday
all of whom confirm the previous accounts of the
sufferings and privations on the Plains.

JENNY LIND.-It is said that the large fortune
which Jenny Lind had acquired is now s1uander-
ed. and that she has recommended her profess
sional career with a view of replenishing her ex-
hausted finances. As the illustrious Barnum is
also financially annhilated, perhaps it might prove
of mutual advantage for the two to unite in another
American campaign. There is plenty of money
in this country, which its owners eager to
lavish upon foreign nightingales, and Barnum,
the ng-headed and hungry 6nancier, would know
how to smite the rock of public eredulity, and
make the golden tide come out in cataract. Let
Jenny, by all means, try another American cam
paign, with Barnum-Napoleon of Humbugs-as

ii my duty to report to you
Mr Joseph Irby, young man of wealth and
standing i'll the up-country, committed suicide on
Sunday morning, at the residence of his brother
in Marlboro District, about seven miles from Ben
nettsvic. The poor unfortunate was laborlng
under fit of insanity. He at first attempted to
shoot himself, and with that intent discharged
both barrels ola double-barreled gun, but through
the interference ola person present, who knocked
aside the muzzle as the discharges took place, he
escaped with but slight wounds Fooled in this
attempt, he ran into room, and, seeing himself
followed by the same person, violently threatened
the life of any who further interfcrcd with him.
His presorvcr deeming him safe for few minutes,
ran for assistance, but before his return the poor
maniac had cut his throat with razor and leaped
from the window, and then hid himself under the
floor Of the house, where he was found dead.
Mr.. Irby young man, unmarried, OF noble
sentiments and great generosity Of heart, and much
beloved by large circle of relatives and friends
