HARRIET MARTINEAU ON MODERN
DRESS.

Dothe petticoats of our time serve as any
thing but mask to the human form-a
perversion of human proportions2 A wo-
man on sofa looks like a child popping
up from haycock A girl in the dance
looks like the Dutch tumbler that was q
favorite toy in my infancy. The fit is so
the reverse of accurate as to be like a silly
hoax-a masquerade without wit; while, at
the same time, it is an easy fit The pro-
digious weight of the modern petticoat, and
the difficulty of gettingit all into the waist
band, creates necessity for compressing
and loading the waist in way most inju-
rious to health Under rational method
of dress the waist should suffer neither
weight nor pressure nothing more than
the girdle which brings the garment into
form and folds. AS to the convenience of
the hooped skirt, only ask the women
themselves, who are always in danger from
fire, or wind, or water, Or carriage-wheels,
or rails, or pals, or nails, or, in short,
everything they encounter. Ask the hus-
bands, fathers, or brothers, and hear how
they like being cut with the steel frame
when they enter a gate with lady, or be-
ing driven into corner of the pew at
church, or to the outside of the coach, for
want of rooom. AS for the children, how
many have been swept off pathways, or
toot-brldges, or steamboat decks bv the
pltiless crinoline, or hoops of some uncon.
scious walking balloon! More children
have been killed, however, by the exten.
sion of the absurd petticoat fashion to them
For many months past, it has been rare
thing to see child under the tunic age
duly clothed. The petticoats are merely
for show; and the actual clothing, from the
waist downwards, is nothing more than
thin cotton drawers and socks, leaving a
bare space between. For older boys there
is great Improvement in dress-the tunic
and loose trousers are being preferable in
every way to the stiff, mannish, tailed coat
and tight trousers of half century ago.
But the younger children are at present
scarcely clothed at all, below the arms
and the blue legs Of childhood are pain
ful sight, whether in begger boy or cit
izen's son.

We have received pamphlet copy of that re-
markable production of DIR. Cheever's-" The
True History of Deacon Giles's Distillery," which
is now being republished and illustrated by Thos
Hamilton, at 48 Beekman st., New York. It is a
scathing article, abounding in the fire and hammer
of unfinching truth. 1t was written originally
for a paper called the " Salem Landmark" pub
ished at Salem, Mass, where DR.. Cheever, then
young man, was engaged in the ministry. 1t pro-
duced great sensation at the time, and the whole
rum-fraternity were in arms about it. Cheever
was arraigned before a court of justice. The re-
production of the article at this time is called for
and is eminently opportune, when, on either
hand, the helish floods of Intemperance are surg
ing back upon communities once reclaimed from
their devastating flow-Ttrte american Erie, Pa.)
No work on Temperance ever had such wide
circulation this; and the exigeney of the times
seemed to call for its republication. 1t purports

TEACHING A DEACON.

A gentleman who resides in the town o1
Elmore, Meqlango County, is, as he de
scribes himself, very onsartaln in politics
and besides that, is the most OnSartaiz
practical joker we have heard Of of late
Here is one of his jokes:
The gentleman was in his store on Sun
day morning, preparing for the duties o.
the day, when the deacon entered Ar
unfortunate pack Of cards was lying on the
counter, and the deacon, as in duty bound
demonstrated with the joker on his villain
Gus practice. The latter admitted that il
was an idle waste Of time, and taking the
cards in his hand, moralized on the subject
just as well and warmly as the deacon
At the same time he allowed few cards
to fall here and there on the counter, they
lying very much in the shape of tricks
and looking as if the two had been "taking
a hand"
At this iuncture another member of the
church came in, (the post-office was in the
store) and all at once the joker placed his
finger on couple of cards on the counter
exclaiming:
"Now, deacon, / tell you this won't do
The Queen always takes Jack, and ten
the nine, and SO down, and if you don't at.
tend you will never learn the game. That
Jack is good card, but my Queen takes
it, besides one on count for game"
"Why, neighbor," exclaimed the horri.
fed deacon, "what on earth do you mean
by all that 7"
Exactly what say," was the reply
"the Queen takes the Jack and its mine
you might have trumped with it and saved
it long ago; now this Jack with low and
game puts me out.
AT this moment the gentleman from Ne
quango county turned round, pretended
for the first moment to notice the brother
deacon who had entered, looked confused
dropped the cards and vanished
Of course the deacon was caught playing
cards on Sunday. He was cited to appea
before the church for his backsliding, ant
as the evidence was complete, would hav,
been convicted and severely punished, il
spite Of all his protestations of ignorance
had not our acquaintance Of the town o
Elmore made his appearance in the nick o
time, as witness in favor of the deacon
told a round unvarnished tale, and pro
cured for him an acquittal.
1t is said to this day the deacon has al
increasing horror of cards, and though h,
feels a conviction that the "Queen will
take the Jack" )" and the Jack can take th'
deacon, yet he has an utter aversion II

sr An Irishman employed about a
store in Boston was one day surprised and
delighted by the entrance of an old ac-
quaintance. After ten minutes jollif-
cation the visitor left, when Pats employ
er said to him:
$50, Pat, you knew that chap in the old
country, did you?"
"Och, an sure did |; an it's lucky day

he'd ha' been general hisselfif he'd not

"But what was he after in your pockets?
l thought saw him putting his fingers
there very slyly."
Clapping his hands in his pockets, Pat
ascertained that both watch and pocket
book were missing.
"Murther p he cried. gesticulating like a
whale with dozen harpoons in his side;

A winter sunshine, still and bright,

When calmly he went forth to die.
Internal passions festered Aere
Where peaceful nature looked so fair;
And fercely, in the morning sun,
Flashed glittering bayonet and gun.

When last he looked on earth and sky
But one small child, with timed air,
Was gazing on bis silver hair.
As that dark brow to his upturned
The tender heart within him yearned;
And, fondly STOPPING DER her face,
He kissed her, for her injured race.
Ihe little ono, she knew not why,
That kind old man went forth to die;
Nor why, mid all that pomp and stir,
He stopped to give kiss to her.
But Jesus smiled that sight to see,
And said, "He did it unto me Z
The golden harps then sweetly rung,
And tbic fI,a en,r, ~ c....alz
'Who loves the poor. doth love the Lord
Earth cannot dim thy bright reward,
We hover DER yon gallows high,
And wait to bear thee to the sky"
