THE MODERN YOUNG LADY.

Hagar sends Us the following portrait Of
a modern young lady. We trust that there
are few originals for this pen-plcture:
'Tis ten o'clock q. m. Slowly she rises
from her couch, the while yawning Tor be-
ing compelled to rise So "horrid early -
Languidly she gains her feet, and oh! what
vision Of human perfection appears before
Us. Skinny, bony, siekly, hipless, thlghless,
tormless, hairless, teethless. What radI-
ant BELLE what an ideal beauty. what an IN
spiration for an aspiring poet! what model
for sculptor. what, tempting bait Tor
some hopeless bach! The ceremony Of en-
robing commences. In goes the dentists nat
uralization efforts; next the witching eurls
are fastened to her "classically moulded
head"
Then the womanly proportions are pro-
perly adjusted; hoops, bustles, &C., follow
in succession; then a profuse quantity Of
whtewasb together with permanent rose
tinge," is applied 70 her sallow complexion,
and lastly the killing wrapper j. arranged
On her symmetrical and matchless FORM
The modern young lady is complete. But
this il not ALL The modern young lady u
accomplished She il talented. She can
entertain an army Of masculines She j.
we'll yersed in literary topics; praises Mil
ton because she knows it is safe; never speaks
Of Byron; thinks he is immodest. Knows
there is number in Greek called dual,
tense called aorist, and grammatical verb
called tuptoo. She converses ia French;
can make killing eyes, and say 'Je pense =
to-" She can thump immoderately on the
piano; can scream up to + fiat pure head
voice; can carry her chest-notes down TO X.
She sings any quantity of those sweet lit
tie things Of Madame Stockhausen' )" but
ALWAYS has an awful cold" She Launches
into the world Of fashion," considers her
self quite belle; falls in love with pair
Of moustaches; thinks said moustaches the
Sweetest she ever saw" moustacbes j. fiat
tered by her smiles; thinks her vastly enter
tanning, and asks PAS" consent and the
twain are made one MoustacheS rejoices
in the effgy Of his painted squaw, and mod
ern young ladies find too late that It takes
fool to win fool.
