Girls. Don,t no IL.

There is practice, quite prevalent among
young ladies of the present day, which we
are old-fashioned enough TO consider very
improper. We sllude TO their giving da-
guerreotypes of themselves to young men
who are merely acquaintance. We consider

astonished that any young girl should hold
herself so cheap as this. With an accepted
lover it is, of course, all right. Even 10 this
case the likeness should be returned il the
engagement should by any misunderstanding

PENNSYLVANIA Democracy.

The recent State Convention of the De.
mocracy of Pennsylvania adopt the follow
ing resolution. 1t must set hard upon the
stomachs of Southern Democrats
Resolved That the convictions of the Demo-
cratic party remain mistaken in the wisdom
and Justice of adequate protection for the
iron, coal. wool, and the other great staples
of the country, based on the necessities of a
reasonable revenue system for the general
government and that we approve of the
views of President Buchanan on the subject
OF specific Duties and desire our Representa-
tives in Congress 10 procure such moditca-
tions of the laws as the unwise legislation of
the Republican party readers necessary for
the prosperity OF the industrial interests of
Pennsylvania.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Despatches were
received yesterday at the Department of
State from Mr.. Dimitry. our Minister in Mica
regua, and from Mr.. Clark, our Minister in
Guatemala. The intelligence received from
MIR. Dimitry officially confirms the statement
heretofore made, of convention between
Great Britain and Nicaragua, by which the
Mosquito protectorate is fually abandoned
10y England. Our Minister did not, as has
been stated, attempt to prevent the negotia-
ton OF the treaty. Matters are progressing
In satisfactory manner. The rival Interests
and spectators are busy endeavoring to Sc
cure grant of the Transit route from the
Nlcaraguan government. Mr.. Dimitry was
still at hanagua, and was expected to leave
for Costa Rlca before long.
Mr.. Clark, our Minister at Guatemala, ow-
ing to the delicate state of his health, had
left for the United States. Matters were pro-
crossing tavorably, and every disposition was
manifested to treat our goveinmently fairly =.

THE THEATRE-There was what the theat-
rical critics call "a highly appreciative audi
ence" at the Gaiety last night to see the glOri-
Gus young BooTH as ''Sir Giles Overreach"
in MAssENGER's play of A Nea0 Way TO Fay
Old Debts-a play not particularly attractive
within itself, written as it was for an age
less refined than ours, but made more than
attractive by the genius of Mr.. BoorH. which
possesses ,be power to lift even the stupidity
of third-rate playwright into the realm OF
the sublime.
But TO see Mr.. BOOTH in his grandest efforts,
plays this evening. BY the mass! won't it
be glorious. Few of US there be who think
otherwise
