A, WOMAN or GOOD u rTAsrB.-Tho
following very happy and equally true
sketch is from the London Quarterly.
''You see this lady turning a. cold
eye to the assurance Of ehopmen, and
the recommendation Of millinera.S Shot:
cares not how original q pattern may
be ifit bo ugly, or how recent shape
if it b, awkward. Whatever law
fashion dictates, she follows one of
her own, and is never behind It. She
wears very beautiful things, which
people generally supposed to be fetch
cd from Paris, or. at least made byga
French 1nilincr, but which as often arc
bought at the nearest town, and mado
up BY her own maid. Not that her
costume is always rich or new-on
tho contrary she wears very many
a cheap dross, but it always pretty,
and many on old one but it is always
good. She deals in no gaudy confu-
sion Of colors, nor does she affect .
studied sobriety but she either re-
ircshes you with a spirited contrast, or
composcs you with . judicious har-
mony. - ..! - -. 4u..a s.
Not . scrap Of tiasel 3. / or Or 4 taru1,mpery
appears upon her.. She puts no faith
in velvet bands or gilt buttons or
twisted cordings. Sho is quite aware
however, that the garnish IL rs import:
ant as the dress /; all her inner Dor.
ders and heading are delicate and
fresh, and should anything peep out,
which it - not intended should DO
seen it is quito as much 80 as that
(which is. After all there is no great
art either in her fashions or her ma
|terials. The secret simply, consists
in preserving the three grand unitics
of dress-hcr own station, her own
ago and her own points. And no
woman can dress well who does not.
After this, we need not say, that who
ever is attracted by costume will not
be disappointed in tho wearcr. She
may not DO handsome, nor accomplish
led---but We will answer for her being
oven tempered, we'll informed thor
oughly sensible and . complete lady.

GARIBALDI,

The Steele has tho following observa-
tions on Garribaldi's extraordinary
career within the last few months:
A man, accompanied by few VOL
unteers, sails from the. environs of
Genoa in the night of the 9th of May,
on board of vessel which is not even
his own property. He goes to iber-
ate several millions Of oppressed peo-
pie, and to overthrow powerful mon
archy; he is stigmatizcd as brigand,
and all the penalties inflicted on pi.
rates are invoked on his devoted head;
the cry is raised that both he and his
followers might be hanged from the
yard arm of, their vessel. On the 7th
of September, this man has almest ao-
complished the task he has underta-
ken; the monarchy he has 9assailed is
dc tacto overthrown. A nation is de-
livcred. Now which are tho wise
councellors2 Those who advise SOW
creigns to make concessions to the
spirit Of the age, or the aattorers who
promise them protected reign if they
will but resist all progress? The an
swcr is easy now. The King Of Ma
pies is a fugitive. Another dynasty
has fallen, though surrounded by sol.
diers, and we'll provided by cannon
and gold; another hope of the counter
revolutionists has fallen away. But
tho men bent on tho ruin OF princes
still persist in giving the same pernic-
ious counsels. ''The King of Naples
has fallen," say they, stbut General de
Lamoriciere still remains; he will fight,
he will, he is ready, and tho revolu-
ton will be overcome" Wretched
counsellors! They arc not yet salts
fed with their work; they want more
catastrophies. Nevertheless, how ca
sy the dynasty Of Naples might have
ESCAPED destruction! Warnings were
not wanting. -Four years ago, during
the Conferences Of Paris, did not Eu-
rope, by the voice Of her diplomatists,
unanimously declare to the King OF
Naples that he was counting destruct-
ion by his bad government, that he
was gathering around him all the elc-
mcnts ofrevolution? Was he not in a
manner implored to adopt different
policy? Was he not daily ifnormed OF
the abyss that lay before him?
The general success of the Italian
leader is thus summed up:--Fivo mar.
yelous stages-Alarsala, Palermo, Mi.
lazzo, Reggie and Naples-pcrformed
in the short space of three months,
have been all that Garibaldi required,
supported as he is by the national son.
timent, to overthrow q monarchy
deemed ilnmovable; which, not YET
four years since, dofed France and
England; which in the face of tho ma
val preparations Of the two creates:
Powers in the world, had determined
