SIMPLICITY OF THE ENGLISH

inherent dignity and solidity, which might
be copied to advantage in this country.
They seem TO have rooted aversion to
anything like display on ordinary occa-
sions, and find in simplicity a peculiar
charu.. American ladies' are sadly def
cicnt in good taste in dress. Many of
them are never satisfied unless burdcDed
with costly silks and wclry, for an out
door costume; and foreigners are Uniform

great cities. A recent visitor in England
alludes to the habits in respect to dress
aud furniture which obtain in the first

A FEMALE SAILOR.

Fifteen years ago. fair and ardent girl

New York state became fractious under a
parental discipline that accorded i'll with
her irrepressablc nature. Her maternal
protector undertook to bring her to reason
by the aid of that prcsentiment Of leather
which little boys regard as capable of
communicating rather more temporary
warmth to the system than an ordinary
cooking stove. The maiden bore the at

elope from the scene Of her sufferings. -
Going to Boston, she there purchased and
donned a complete outfit OF masculine at

five years: and rhHn the vessel rear pearei

Two WAYS There are two WAYS If
dealing with our fellow men, both Of which
may hc considered honest One is to
give your nrighb"r his due. but not
cert more. In shovcli,g the Stow fro;n

showed any from before his bonse Stop
exactly at the line: and give him to lnI.r-
stand that he must shovel his own suow.
Pursue the same policy in everything. aud
let him know that be has neghbor who
will not suffer his ri ghrs to be- trampled
N. The result III natural You stir up
the saline spirit i'll him. He looks out fer
his privileges as carefully as you do fer
yours: and yuu suon find that you have
got one Of the least accommodating one
Of the meanest and most obstinate neigh
bors in the world: while he cutcrtains pre-
ciscly the same opinion Of you.
The other way is to deal not exactly.
but generously. Always be willing to pa y
all the things you purchase is worth; aud
show less anxiety, when buyin from the
poor. to pay too much than about par
ing too little. Sloyel the snow from b.
fore both houses when convenient, and
cont look as if you expected some grace
full return for the favor Feel that it is o
pleasure 20 accommodate your neighbors
III all things possible; and that, in mat
ters Of slight misunderstanding. it is al
ways better magnanlmou>ly to surrender
your rights than to indulge in a parry
quarrel. You will soon find that also IN
this case you will fnd similar spirit in
those you deal with: and that instead Of
jeal"usies aud complaints Of each other.
which are the Curse of neighborhoo1.
you and your friends will initiate each
other in doing kind.
Or. i. this d"es result. you will still be
the gamer. You will gain a noble and
serene spirit Of liberation, which will be
worth more to you than all the trih"s there
may be dispute about. Your charity and
generosity will be rrfrcted back upon
