OVER DREssING.-Thc over dressing of
American ladies' in the streets, at hotels, and
iu the churches, isa asubect of general remark
among travellers from abroad, as well as sem
sible people at home; though to little purpose,
it would seem, as at no period has the love Of
display been more conspicuous in our country.
American women are slaves to dress it is
the bane of their life, aya, and ofthe male vic
TINS, too, whose lives are connected with
theirs. Travelling trunks, almost as large as
a small house, must be carried about, filled
with all sorts Of fincry, for summer jaunt to
watering places, and for winter visit to q
city. The father or husband yainly remon-
stratcs; founced dresses and crinoline must
have ample space, and there must be a varie-
ty, too, in the costumes. Heaven save the
ladies, how they dress p may we well exclaim.
Why will they not become more practical p
Does the most fastidious critic of female beau
ty admire young lady in full toilette more
than in simple dresss II beautiful, there is
no need of ornament; if plain, she should APP
pear without pretension. We have known
ladies' who have travelled through the conti-
nent Of Europe with only small trunk to
contain their wardrobe, and they found a
wonderful relief in not having "too much to
wear. r."-Homc Journal.

Life Everywhere.


Under this caption deeply interesting and
instructive article makes its appearance in
the CornhiU Magazine How mysterious
What lessons it teaches Of creative skill and
proyidential superintendence! But read the
article: gs.sr. sF y, -4..tf4
Life everywhere The air is crowed with
birds-beautiful, tender, intelligent birds, to
whom life is song and thrilling anxiety
the anxiety of love-. The air is swarming
with insects-those little animated miracles.
The waters are peoplcd with innumerablc
forms--from the animalcule, so small that
one hundred and fifty millions of them would
not weigh a grain, to the whale, SO large that
it seems an island as it sleeps upon the waves.
The bed of the sea is alive with polypes,
carps, star-fishes, and with shell-animalcules.
The rugged face Of the rock is SCARED by the
silent borings Sof, soft creatures, and black
ened with countless muscles, barnacles, and
limpcts. - ~ 4.. a..rrB ia .raF.
Life everywhere on the earth, in the earth,
crawling, creeping, burrowing, boring, leap
ing, running. If the sequestered coolness Of
the wood tempt us to saunter into its check
cred shade, we are saluted by the numerous
din Of insects, the twitscr of birds, the scramb-
my VI SquIIclS, iile StlTllcu uSIl Oh unseen
beasts, all telling how populous is this SEEM
ing solitude. five pause before tree, or
shrub, or plant, our cursory and half abstract
ed glance detects colony of various inhabi-
tants. We pluck flower, and in its bosom
VIC see many charming insect busy in its
appointed labor. We pick up fallen leaf,
and If nothing is visible on it, there is proba-
bly, the trace of am insect larya hid
den in its tissue, and awaiting their develop
ment. The drop of dew upon this leaf will
probably contain its insects, under the micro
scope. The, same microscope reveals that
bloodrain suddenly appearing upon bread,
aud awakening supersritious tcrrors, is moth
ing but collection of minute animals Hon.
as prodigosa i; and that the vast tracts of
snow which are Redeemed in single night,
owe their color to the marvellous rapidity in
production of minute plant (proidccus nj
ciis). The very mold which covers our
cheese, our bread, our jam, or our ink, and
disfgures our walls, is nothing but a colIec-
ton of plants. The many -colored fire which
sparkles on the surface of a summer sea at
night, as the vessel plows her way, or which
drips from the oars in lines of jeweled light,
is produced by millions OF minute animals.

Clergymen are proverbially good eaters;
but when you come across large portly
preacher, you can just bet your boots that no
can eat his weight in broiled chicken. Tho
point is illustrated by the following "A cor
pulent clergyman rose at public dinner TO-
return thanks, which no did by laying his
hand on his stomach, and saying: ~
"We thank the for these blessings, 50
,bountifully spread, and for our capacity to
enjoy them"

Daniel Webster: s3

of law is quite full, and that there are more
lawyers than are needed. Do you think
there is any chance for me r. ..,.gs,s,:. !,
There is Away room up stairs" was the
reply, and as true as twas ingenious. Only
a few persons reach the high places, and
these are always IN good demand. aThere

First-class farmers and mechanics, as well
as physicians, lawyers, etc. always find plenty
Of room, plenty Of work, and good pay
Whatever " calling you choose, and it matters
little il it be an honest one, resolve to go into
an upper story but do not try to jump there
by a single leap, or you may fall disabled
