not enough that she was placed in the garden of
Eden for W. We were blind for many thou

made her fetch our wood, cook our food, and
play the menial. In our days Of chivalry we
taught her to be pretty Amazon. to dress our
wounds, to bind her scarf about our helmet, to
receive fantastic and insinccre adoration.-
Then, as If there were never to be an end to our
nonsense, we fancicd that she was an Arcadian
shcpherdess, or lovely woodnymph, with con.
fused ideas Of virtue. Then she taps us on the
paints and wears her hair four stories high. That
was the conrtly age. But BY andb she wearicd

more sense then little by little she began to
assert herself, and the better we treated her the
more she asserted, until at last We cried out like

created 7" But it was not monster-it was
on'y a ,roman Great in her weakness, noble

The house Of the celebrated, bold hearted
and out-spoken Parson Brownlow, is the
only one in Knoxville over which the Stars
and Stripes are floating. A few days ago
two armed sccessiOnsts went at 6 O'Clock
in the morning to haul down the stars and
stripes. Miss Brownlow, brilliant young
lady Of twenty three, saw them on the
piazza, and stepped out and demanded their
business. They replied that they had
come to "take down them d-n stars ard
stripes" She instantly drewa revolv-
er from her side, said, "Go on! I'm good
for one of you, and think for bo,h!'
"By the looks of that girls eye, she'll
shoot" one remarked. Il think we'd bet
ter not try it; we'll go back and get more
men, said the other. -...
GO and get more men, said the noble la
dy; get more men and come and take it
down if you dare!
They returned with company Of nine.
ty armed men, and demanded that the flag
should be hauled down. But on discover
ing that the house was filled with gallant
men armed to the teeth. who would rather
die as dearly as possible than see their
country's flag dishonorcd, the sccessionists
retired.

THE FAsHroNs.-Paris fashions tell us that
crinoline having taken new lease of existence,
dounces have come back into favor One deep
dounce, edged with two or three tiny ones, the
latter edged with piping of the color most con-
spicuous in the embroidered pattern, is much in
vogue; Or :he dress may be aounccd half way
up with flowers of about three inches in wi;:th,
or to the waist if preferred. The bottom of the
skirt is generally good deal trimmed. For the
street, short pclisses of silk, Or light cloth, are
still the rage, especially for young people
Nantes, very large and ample, are much in

Hcw TO TAKE CARE OF THE HATr.-As tG
men, we say, when the hair begins to fall
out, the best plan is to have it cut short;
give it good brushing with moderately
stiff brush, while the hair is dry; then
wash it well with warm soap suds then
rub into the scalp, about the roots Of the
hair, a little bay rum, brandy or camphoT
water. Do these things twice month thu
brushing Of the scalp may be probably
done twice a week. Damp the hair with
water every time the toilet is made. Moth
ing ever made is better for the hair than
pure soft water, If the scalp is kept clean
in tfe way we have named. The use Of
oils, or pomatums, or grease Of any kind n
ruinous to the hair Of man or woman. VIZ
consider it filthy practice, almost univer-
sal though it be-, for it gathers dust and
dirt, and soils whatever it touches. Moth.
ing but pure soft water should ever BE- al
lowed on the heads of children. 1t is 4
different practice that roLs our women Of
their most beautiful ornament long before
their prime; the hair of our daughters
should be kept within two inches until thciv

No SHuFrIING.-At ball one evening, .

ty coquette for the next dance, but gallant
captain coming along persuaded the lady to
abandon her previous engagement in favor
Of himself. The plain yeoman overhearing
all that had passed, with a frigid inditFor-
encc, moved toward a card table, and sat
down to play game Of whist. The cap
tain, in few minutes aftcrward, stepped
up to the lady to excuse himself, as he was
engaged to another, that he had forgotten.
The coquette, m"ch chagrinned, approached
the whist-table, in hopes to secure her first
partner, and said:

The pleasantest things in the world arc
pleasant thoughts, and the greatest art in
life is to have as many Of them as possible:
DR.. Parr had high opinion of his own
skill at whist, and could not even patientl !,
tolerate the want Of it in his partner. Be.
ing engaged at party in which he was un
equally matched, he was asked by lady
how the fortune Of the game turned, when
he replied, pretty well, madam, consider.
ing that have three adversarics."
My little boy, riding home with me one
evening, brmful of enthusiasm and fun.
having evidently ''made good day of it,
broke ont in this wise: "Oh! pa, pa there
is such a nice little girl comes to school
little Katy F.. Oh! ohI she's such a
nice little girl! l Ike little Katy p"
(and looking me full in the face, with a
voice slightly lowered. and an earnest mo-
ton Of the head), I'D marry her, pa, If

A good joke is told of one of the new re-
cruits at Fort Warren. A Colonel lately
visited the fort, and on his appearing before
the sentinel, was challenged.
"Who comes there:"
inspector General, was the reply.
Don't care cuss whether you are res
pcctablc gentleman or not-can't come in
here" The Colonel explain ID and was ad-
mitted.
Aunt Dnah, negro woman, soon after
having experienced religion, at recent re-
vival, stole a goose, to make merry with
her consort from II ncighboring plantation.
OF course she was whipped for tho good Of
others as well as of herself Soon after
these circumstances, a communion was to
take place in the ncighborhood, and Dinah
prepared to go. Her mistress remonstrat-
ted with her, and mentioned the goose af-
fair as sufficient reason for her not to offer
herself on such a holy occasion; to which
she replied, "Lor, missus, I amt gwine to
turn my back to my Dressed massa for an
