Etiquette.
The following rules Of etiquette are laid
down by a Southern journal
LIST. Before you bow to lady in the
street permit her to decide whether you
may do SO or not by at least look of re-
cognition.
Sd. When your companions bow to a
lady, you should do the same. When a
gentleman bows to lady in your company
always bow to him in return.
In giving them publicity the Albany
-dtlas and Argus makes the following time
ly and truthful comments:
Nothing is so lily understood in Ameri-
ca as these conventional laws of society, so
well understood and practiced in Europe
Ladies complain that gentlemen pass them
in the street unnoticed, when, in fact, the
fault arises from their breach of politeness
1t is their duty to do the amiable first, for
1t is privilege which ladies enjoy of choos-
ing their own associates or acquaintance.
No gentleman likes to risk the '.cut," in
the street by alady through premature
salute. The many ladies', it would seem,
don't know their trade of politeness.-
Meeting ladies in the street, whom one has
Usually met in company, they seldom bow
unless he bows first; and when gentle
man ever departs from the rule Of good
breeding, except, occasionally by way of
experiment, his acquaintance do not null
tiply, but he stands probably charged with
rudencss. A lady must he civil to gen.
tleman into whose company she may casu-
ally be placed; but gentleman is not up
on this to presume upon an acquaintance
ship the first time he afterwards meets her
in the street If it be her WILL she gives
some token Of recognition, when the gem
man may bow; otherwise he must pass on
and consider himself a stranger No lady
need hesitate to bow to gentleman, for he
will promptly and politely answer, even if
he has forgotten his fair salutor; no one
but brute can do otherwise; should he
pass on rudely, his character is declared,
and there is cheap radiance. Politeness
or good breeding is like law---thc treason

Woman. "
Some miserable devil whose ill-luck pre-
vented success in hunting a wife, thus vents
his spleen against those lovely creatures
whom it is the pride of every real man to
honor:
at is precisely because have no i'll to
say of them that | complain. 1t is because
pretty woman is pretticr than the finest
animal, and more delightful than the most
charming flower Because it has become q
variety, as well as a commonplace, to say
they are whittier than lilies, sweeter than
roses, &c. Because, even were he hero
one could pass his life at their feet Because
even heroes do so. Therefore curse them,
execrate them, and assert that they are
equal to a pestilence; that esteem them,
in aword, the most dangerous and, perhaps,
the sole enemy Of man.
understand ME: it is not their gall and
vinegar, their poison and venom; it is their
honey and their perfume, on the contrary :;
it is the odor of their most exquisite quail
ties; it is the involuntary tenderness of their
chastest looks; it is the inyincible charm
with which they are environed, which JUS

"Do you think that, if all women were
fools or harpes, monsters of evil or of ugli-
ness, that would take arms against them
No. There are hyenas in the world. We
shut them up in cages, or drive them into
the depths of their forests. Man is always
strong enough to conquer that which is bad !;
but woman, well-educated good honest,
clever and pretty, is a syren-all but the
fishes tail. Listen not to her; look not at
her; fly from her; shut your eyes and stop
your ears, saying to yourself the best of them
is the worst, and the most beautiful the
most to be feared. For, over your resolu-
tons; before your defences, passes girl
of fifteen, with the look Of an angel, and
beneath that look ingenious, which does
not seek you, which has no knowledge or
thought Of you in it, your fortress and reso-
lutions fall. You quit your solitude or your
labor, your glory or your duty. With sup
plant hands and beating heart, upon your
knees you follow this perpetually attractive
danger. Human nature would not stumble,
the world would not so often turn awry, if
it did not find upon its path this diamond

BY cLARRHcs MELVIN.
Somebody's hear: is gay,
And somebody's heart is sad;
For lights shine out across the way,
And a door with Grape Is clad
Sadness and gladness alike
Are dwelling side by side;
Perhaps the death Of an early one,
And the browning OF bride. .
Bright eyes are aled with might,
Pale faces bend in prayer,
And hearts beside the household hearth
n Are crushed by cold despair
All. sorrow and hope and JOY
Are parted by thinnest wal!s--
But on the hearts Of the thoughtlsss ones
No shadow Of sorrow falls!
No thoughts Of the funeral train
Come to tho festive throng;
No hope that the past will come again
To the anguished hearts belong;
The futures sunny sea
To lovers of joy and mirth--
But the past alone to those who weep
For the parted tiea of earth.
Somebody's heart is gay,
And somebody's heart Is sad
For the lights are bright across tho way,
And door with Grape is clad
Badness and gladness alike
Enclose every hand
A wealth Of smiles and food Of tears
With hope and sorrow allied.
LOVE.
Why should blush to own lore,
IT'S love that rules the realms above!
Why should blush to say to all,
That virtue holds my heart in thrall,
IL 1t weakness thus to dwell
On passion that dare not tell
Such weakness I would ever prove
IT'S painful, though tits sweet to love.
