Fast Young Men in England-Their Shame-
fnI Disregard Of the PrOprieties Of Life.

r 1nl Dlsregard OF the PfOpr1et1eS oil Iltes
We have heard some remarkable stories
of the fast style Of living among certain
class in our large cities, but they are good
ways behind England yet in unblushing i'm
morality, if that respectable journal, the
London Morning Post, is good authority.
The Post accuses "the fine young English
gentlemen of permitting, practicing and
fostering lax system of demeanor in pub
Lie, which is capable of producing very
serious results on society," The speci6ea-
tion is that they are becoming much more
emulous of making the acquaintance and
frequenting the society, even IN public, OF
CERTAIN persons-riding with them in the
parks, and scarcely avoiding the recognition
of their more respectable friends-descend-
ing from their mothers box at the opera, to
exchange persifaage with notorious indivi1-
usls-rising from their chairs in Rotten
Row by the side Of Lais and Aspasia to chat
with Lady Helen or Miss Fanny over the
rail-in short, emitting no opportunity of
admitting, even in the presence of their
nearest and dearest, an intimacy which none
but the most shameless would exhibit in
such presence, and priding themselves, as
it were, on that being the style they prefer,
the tone that has the sweetest attractions for
them. The Post asks; "Can they possibly
be blind 10 the evil of all this-can they not
perceive that they must reflect back upon
which they acquire from such infamous
sources; and would they really wish their
sisters and cousins 10 adopt such hue2 We
fear such hue is already not slow Of adop-
tion. We continually hear the remark, that
none but the fast girls get on, and we know
that nothing is more common now than for
the fast girls to be perfectly oonversant
with the names, nieknames--eVen the per-
sonal habits and pursuits Of their rivals
The POst says that the only remedy rests
with the heads of society themselves for
fashion has weapons more powerful than
elOquenee, or even satire, and If half-a-dozen
leading ladies were to decline the acquaint-
ance of these fast young gentlemen, at the
same time openly aVOWing their reasons for
their conduct, and showing that they con-
slider il pollution TO be included in the at
fractions youehsafed TO those whom they
unfortunately can not misunderstood, there
would soon be more manly decency of de-
meanoT and pnrer tone Of sentiment char
acterizing the lives Of the rising generation.
Such things as now occur were not done
even under the dissolute sway of the Regent;
they certainly should not be done in the re-
spectacle reign of Victoria.

JThe oosaha MaodEsus con- htainsthis pathetic poem,
n ore worthy ofthe gifted singer than her recent sf
iusions have teeD II describes the selfsacrihee az
aolEerino Of one foroodto battle against cause he
cherished in his breast.-ED PnEsslI
In the ranks Of the Austrian you found him
He Died with his face to you all
Yet bury him here where around hin
You honor your braYest that AL.
Venitlan, fair.featured and slender,
He lies shot 10 death in his youth,
With smile on bis lips, er-tender
For any mere soldiers dead mouth.
No stranger, and yet not traitori
Though alien the cloth on his breast,
Underneath IL how seldom greater
Young heart, has shot sent TO rest
By your enemy tortured and eoaded
TO march with them, stand In their file,
His musket (see y never was loaded
He facing your guns with that smile.
As orphsns ysarn on to their mothers,
He yearned to our patriot bands
" Let me die for our ltaiyi pfolherst,
II not in your ranks, by your hands.
"Aim straight, fire steadily; spare me
A bail in the body, which may
Deliver my heart here, and tear me
This badge of the Austrian away"
So thought he, so died he this morning.
What then many others have died.
Ay-bnt easy for men TO die scorning
The death stroke, who fought side by side.
One tri-color floating above them;
Struck down by triumphant acclaims
Of an Italy rescued to love them
And blazon the brass with their names.
But he-without witness or honor,
Mixed, shamed in his country's regard,
With the tyTants who marched In upon her
Died faithful and passive twas hard.
Twas sublime. In a cruel restriction
Cut of from the guerdon of sons,
With his most flial obedience, conviction,
His soul kissed the lips Of her guns.
That moves you? nay grudge not to show II
While digging grave for him here.
The others who died, says your poet,
Have glory. let him have tear.

hundred miles by sixty, containing about
half a million of inhabitants, poor in the

subsistence upon chestnuts when all other
sources of living fail. The district was, in
point Of fact, the original nucleus of the
kingdom of Sardinia, and as far back as the
year A. D. 1000, it was governed by its own
rulers, who annexed Piedmont in the be-.
ginning of the fifteenth century, as they had
