Ere in the Northern gale,
The Summer tresses of the trees are gone,
The woods of Autumn, all around our vale,
Have put their glory on.

Somebody in the Times has cast bad
odor upon the operatic matinees by intimat-
ing that, on two or three occasions of late,
the best sofas have been occupied by ladies
OF unascertained virtue, and argues there
from that parents and guardians should keep
sharp lookout for sisters and daughters
who are in the habit of going to these en-
tertainments unattended by gentlemen. The
argument is taken up and continued by
writer's of anonymous communications in the
newspapers over the signitures of "a Moth.
er," "a Father" etc.-but, though all of
these agree in reprobating the intrusion of
La 1ravlata among them, the puzzle is to
abate the nuisance without abafing the mat
'nees along with them. The fashionable
churches sometimes suffer in this same way.
When the pews of Grace Church were
brought to the hammer, some years ago, the
most eligible oue in the sacred edifce, right
in front of the chancel, was taken by the
proprietor Of notorious house of ill-repute,
and who, Sunday after Sunday, took care
not only to be present herself, but to bring
with her number of people of like charac.
ter. A deal of scandal, Of course, was the
result. Parents and guardians became un-
easy-but, so long as Mrs. Brown and her
friends conducted themselves with the same
rroprety as the other miserable sinners un-
der the same roof, there was no way of foust-
ing them. Nevertheless, after a while the
evil spirits were successfully exercised, but
it was only by paying Mrs. B. handsome
bonus for the pew. From that day to this,
every applicant for pew at Grace Church
has to furnish the sexton satisfactory proof
that he or she is of good moral character.
Now, then, the question is, if the church
thus suffer, what can be expected of the

A Race of Two Hundred Miles.

The London Antheneum gives an account
of race which took place in England on
the 23d of August, l773. At 9 o'clock in
the morning of that day, Monday, two
gentlemen appeared at the corner of Port
land street and Oxford street. Both were
admirably mounted-one of them, Captain
Mulcaster, on the mare of q friend, Captain
Hay; the other, Mr.. Walker, rode his own
horse. They started thence on a race to
York-2O0 miles-without changing steeds.
1t was such race as Arabs ride, proving
the strength and endurance, as well as the
speed, of the horses. The first ninety miles
were accomplished in six hours. The two
gentlemen's jockeys passed the end of Don.

Tuesday morning, amid such cheering as
