OCCUPATIONS OF WOMEN IN FRANCE.-The
great social problem which at present is en-
sgaging the benevolent of our country-bow
shall we find employment for those of our
female population whose condition places
them above menial seryice?-h has long and
successfully been solved in France. 1t is
considered there that when lady goes to
purchase dress or pair of gloves, trink-
.et for herself or toy for her chilpren, she
will prefer being served by one of her own
sex, rather than broad-shouldered speci-
men of the other. So long as the soil de-
mands cultivators, the country soldiers and
mechanics, merchants and artisans, such as
only the brain and strength of manhood can
supply, it is thought an ungalant and I'M
seemly invasion of the rights of the weak,
that any employment for which they are Pc
,cniary qualified should be taken away from
them.
Woman, who finds both her virtue, COM
fort and delight in labor, is permitted in
consequence to exercise it. She often acts
as ticket dispenser, at railway stations, as
bookkeeper at hotels and as attendant on the
heaped tables of the reading room. The
matchmaker consigns to her delicate touch
the finer parts of his mechanism, and the
jeweEler the setting of his mosteostly gems
the wood engraver expects bis most delicate
and tasteful cuts from her; and the picture
dealer invites her TO plant her easel in the
Louvre or Luxembourg, to reproduce, as she
we'll can, the masterpiece OF ancient or mod
ern art. Nor is the maliet of IA sculptor con-
sidered to disgrace the hand of princess,
one of the modest statues of modern times,
representing Joan of Arc claspng the
secrated sword, being the production of
daughter of the late Citizen King. The in
-dividual and social advantages which the
honor that is thus paid to l;rbor brings are
incalculable. Pride is never permitted to
interfere with usefulness and many female
who would have been debarred, AS with us,
by its pernicious influence from the honora-
bic employment of her powers. and been
tempted TO seek Il refuge from poverty in Il
life of shame, is enabled, by the wiser and
more mercful arrangements which obtain in
France, tossecure virtuous and comfortable
independence.
This recognition Of female usefulness. aud
respect paid to its exercise, is attained by
other important results 70 the welfare and
arrangements of society. No well-conduc-
ted young woman is condemned to the cheer
lessness of old maidish life. A young fe-
male, trained to the idea that she has po-
sition in society to fill. and work to do, is
regarded by the other sex, who have marri
age in prospect, not in the light of an ex-
pensve incumbrance, but as a lelp and gain;
and it will depend on herself alone. it, at a
comparatively early age. she does not oh
tain the opportunity of being happy wife.

house?" said an elderly maiden lady to a
young woman recentry married.
"Yes," was the reply.
"Going 70 have a girl, suppose" was

FROM THE SANDWICH IsLANDs.-A dvices
from Honolulu are to the 2Sth ult. The pa.

We learn from Kawaihae that a woman
up at Waimea, Hawaii, was lately delivered
of child which was bern with two heads,
two mouths, two noses, four eyes and two
feet that the mother died of fright at be-
holding her offspring, and the child died
shortly after.
Much complaint is made by whaleshp
masters on account of the scarcity and high

cause that has led to the scarcity, is the new

FIVE months cruise in the Arctic Ocean. DR.
s. P. Ford and Mr.. j. Widdefed take pas
sage in her. and it is their intention to cruise
along both shores, from Bhering Straits as
far north as it is possible to go, taking sound
ipgs and making surveys of the coast line, as
we'll as sketches of the scenery. The Doctor
also purposes obtaining specimens of all the
arctic apimals and birds o5tainable, with the
view of collecting and preserving them for
the benefit of natural history.
A Chinese aoolie was recently hanged at
Honolulu for an attempt at murder. Before
going on to the scaffold he declared that the
person whose life he had sought would not
live long that he would be killed by some
of his fraternity, who would thus revenge bis
death.
Two churches have just been finished at
Waimea, Hawaii, at cost Of $4,000 and it
is contemplated to bnild nine more. This is
what Mr., Lyons, missionary there, says.
The estimated expense of these eleven church

The FLTeHr.-The following account of the
flight of the whites after their defeat by the
Indians at Pyramid Lake, is given in the
statement of Captain Mcdonald, Joseph Bald
win and others:
On our flight we came to several deep
cahons the Indians firing on us, while our
men were perfectly helpless, and quite a num-
Der of our people thus got killed We at
tempted to rally the men at several of these
points to protect the wounded and those on
foot, or broken down; but they would not
stop, and fled in wild excitement. The In
diaus followed us about Is miles, when dark
ness set in. All who were well mounted got
out of danger; the others crawled into bushes
to hide themselves.
Young Baldwin and Chilean lay hid in
the bushes-the Indians passing by them all
night, sometimes within 20 or 80 steps from
their hiding place-but did not discover
them. They kept quiet and motioness till
midnight, when they got up, hunted for the
trail and suddenly found themselves to be
within half mile of the Indian camp. They
then made for the mountains east, wandering
about all night. They had eaten nothing
since Saturday morning, and lived on grass
on Sunday. In the afternoon they found two
horses, and made for Virginia, where they
arrived on Monday, at IL o'clock, completely
worn out.

OIL ExPLosIoN- explosion of an oil
cask took place on board the whaleship
Ocean, while she was cruising off the Cali

cumstapces The cask had been nearly filled
with boiling hot oil, when some water was
accidentally spilled or poured into the eask
This was soon followed by a terrific explo
sion, and noise as loul as thai of cannon.
1t is supposed that the water, on coming in
contact with the oil, generated steam, which
resulted in the explosion A number of per-
sons were standing about the deck, several
of whom were more or less stunned.

European who will enroll himself under the

cepted the terms, and whatever may be the
