Emile de GIrardIn,s Country Seat.

EmlIe O6 OlfHrulu'B SehLs
A Paris letter in the London Times gives
a glowing description of the rural retreat
selected by Emile de Girardin, on the pic
Picturesque lake of Enghien. The writer says;
Each room is arranged with so much taste
that it may be called beautiful picture.
The principal ones command view of the
lake. The house is separated by an extern
siVe lawn of velvet smOothnesS, interspersed
with parterres of flowers and clumps Of
trees and shrubs artisticslly arranged. The
rear of the house seems to be embosomed in
the plantations of park, where the Vegeta-
ton is equal in vigor to the great cultivation
that has caused it to be 80, and which is
we'll concealed under an air salvage, now the
prevailing mode in landscape gardening.
This villa shows in every thing that elabo-
rate art which gives as its highest result ex
treme simplicity, and is about the best ex-
preston of the tastes and habits of its in
mates. Damascus never produced finer roses
than the grounds of Villa Delphine, and the
queen of flowers in every possible variety o.
species and arrangement perfumed the all
between it and the lake. Everything inthe
internal or external decorations bespeak
theeHquisitely delicate taste Of swell-edu

EXCEEDING SooRNFUL.-A young lawyer
from this city recently went to North Easton,
Washington County, to prosecute a lady Of
that town, milliner, for debt. He succeeded
in obtaining Judgment and execution,
which he undertook to collect himself The
fair milliner was stubborn and resistant, and
barricaded the entrance to her premises but
the aforementioned lawyer wears heavy
boots when travelling, and their application
to the door speedily procured him admission.
He gathered up every thing visible about the
premises subject TO execution, and was leav-
ing with the officer in his company, when
the milliner asked him;
"sir, have you got every thing you can
take by lawP
ayes, I haye,P said young Blackstone.

linen, evidently intended for nursery use

The Claddagh Fishermen.

The condition Of this primitive and peace
able race is at this moment so deporable as
to demand the aid and sympathy of the public
as well as Of the government These men
with their fellows for centuries. They belong
ed, from generation to generation, to the great
deep. Their habits were as simple as their
lives were innocent. To them the teemng wa
ters around Galway Bay were the richest and
most remunerative of diggins. They provided
themselves amply with the good things of life,
and equally the ichthyophagists around from
their piscatory labors. In the revolutions of
Europe, and the rise and fall of dynasties, they
took neither part nor interest. There was
neither marrying nor giving in marriage, out
side their present limits. They ished, ate and
died, within circunlscribed circle of usefulness
and simplicity. They knew nothing Of :" pro-
gress,' until with them it became progress
from bad to worse and at last they found
themselves isolated, behind the course of events
stopping the way, and gradually being sub
merged in the depths of pauperism One Of
the main causes was the gradual decadence of
the supply of fish in the Galway waters, and
this increasing deficiency, it is alleged, sprung
from the injudicious practice of " thrawlug'
within prohibited boundaries. BY this course
it is asserted that the spawn has been carried
away from the grounds in myriads, and the
minute fish brought into our markets and sold
for manure at mere nominal price. The
Claddagh men cow reap the fruits of this des-
destructive policy, Here are willing hearts
and stout hands, men Of frames who know not
what fear is, simple sailors who trust in God,
and work in all winds and weathers-but there
is no reward for their industry, and they have
forfeited their lives in vain on the changing
and treacherous waters of the surrounding
ocean. The Claddagh race of fishermen, we
have said, form an ancient community Their
character has been uniformly gentle and prim-
itvely pure. 1t would be too bad that they
should be doomed to extinguishment by death
of pauperism, and after Drawing the battle and
the breeze for generations, that they should
perish at last under workhouse regime. If
they had boats and gear, they would earn a
profitable subsistence, and be a source of wealth
to the community. viii the government save
them under that consideration

BE JusT AND FEAR NoT.-Heaven help the
man who supposes he can dodge ''enemies" by
trying to please everybody If such an indi-
vidual ever succeeded we should be glad to know
it. Not that we believe in a man going
through the world trying to find beams to
knock his head against; disputing every mans
opinions fighting and elbowing and crowd
ing all who differ with him. That again is
another extreme. Other people have right
to their opinions-so have you, don't fall into
the error of supposing they will respect you
less for maintaining it--or respect you more
for turning your coat every day to match the
color Of theirs. Wear your own colors, spite
Of winds and weather, storms and sunshine. 1t
costs the vascillatiDg and irresolute ten times
the trouble 70 wind and shuttle and twist, that
it does honest, manly independence TO stand
its ground.

What do you mean?' at length inquired

"What do you mean?" at length inquired
he.
" 1t is simply this, father the loom is mine, =

have invented it, and taken patent right and
have already been offered ten thousand dol
lars for the patent right in two adjoining States.
Don't you remember that clap-trap that six
years ago you crushed under your foot ?"
Yes answered the old man, his eyes bent
to the floor, and over whose mind new light
seemed breaking
Well continued Samuel "that was almost
a patent, though of course, l have made much
Improvement on it, and there is room for
more"
"And that is what you were studying,
when you used to stand and watch me weave,
and fambling about my loom so much ?" said
Mrs. Winthrop.
"And that was why you could not under
stand my mathematical problems" added Mr.
Winthrop, as he started from his chair, and
eOOh thO yOutu tIC lcdlllutl, INV
son, forgive me for the harshness which l have
used towards you. l have been blinded, and
now see how | misunderstood you. While l
thought you were idle and careless, you were
solving Philosophical problem, l could never
comprehend. Forgive me, Samuel meant
well enough, but lacked discrimination and
judgment"
OF course, the old man had long before
been forgiven for his harshness, and his mind
was open to new lesson in human nature
1t was simply this: Different minds have diff
ferent capacities, and no mind can be driven to
love that for which it has no taste. First
seek to understand the natural abilities and
disposition of children, and then in the man
agement of their education for after life, gov
ern yourselves accordingly. George Comde,
the greatest moral philosopher of his day,
could hardly reckon in simple addition, and
Colburn, the mathematician, could not write
out commonplace address.

Come an hear dis song tomorrow;
Look away! &c.

WOMEN CouRrING MES-A most extraor-
binary custom prevails among the Wires, a
powerful tribe, occupying an extensive district
in Cabul, among the mountains, between Per-
sia and India, 1t is, in fact, female preroga-
tive that has no parallel among any other
people upon the earth, and reverses what we
are in the habit of considering the natural
order of things-the women choose their hus-
bands, and not the husbands their wives If
woman be pleased with man, she sends the
drummer of the camp to pin handkerchief to
his cap with the pin she used to fasten her
hair. The drummer watches his opportunity,
and does this in public, naming the woman,
aud the man is obliged to marry if he can pay
the price to her father.
