Dressing with Taste.

1t is strange that, with all the time Amer.
ican women bestow upon dress, so few know
how TO prepare simple toilet with taste. To
be well.dressed means, With most, to wear
rich material, made up in gorgeous style, and
with all the usual accessories Of lace and Jew.
elry, to add to the magnifcence Of the
general effect. Never was a greater mistake,
To be well-dressed is only to have attire suit
ed to time. place and circumstances, made in
a becoming manner. This attire may be q
shilling calico or a rich silk, and vet in eth.
er, if it is adapted to the conditions we have
mentioned, women may be said to be well
dressed. Where household duties have to be
performed, and the care of children deyolyes
partly upon the mistress of the house, neat
dress fitted gracefully to the figure is much
better for morning wear than the faded re-
mains Of more lretentious costume. Moth.
ing looks more forlorn than to see a would
be lady performing household Offices. of not
the most refined character, in an ldtorn dir.
ty silk dress, or a soiled and draggled open
wrapper. One of the secrets of dressing well
is to dress appropriately another, to be care.
ful of the details, the wirutia of the toilet
Thorough personal cleanliness, glossy, well
brushed hair, neat shoes and stockings, are
as essential to good personal appearance as
the material and fashion of the dress. In
deed, lady who is particular in these mi
nor matters can hardly be said to be illdress,
ed, as this delicate refinement will not only
excuse faults, but naturally show itselfin the
good taste which will guide her selection, no
matter how small the cost may be- Some
persons have an extreme horror Of being
caught as they call it, in morning dress
Why they should be SO sensitive on this point
it is difficult to say If ii is clean, and adapt
ed to the work in which they are engaged,
there is no shame in wearing it, and. above
all, il ought to be remembered that no attire
is not good enough for mere acquaintance
who may chance to favor you with society.
1t is much better to be caught in plain
morning dress than to be caught very much
overdressed, as some unlucky individuals
are, at small evening party. In one case
there is real cause for modification, in the
other there is none.
Mothers should carefully impress this les
son upon their daughters. Many young
lady has lost an eligible match through the
discovery that the belle of the evening was
the slattern of the morning, and that she paid
more attention to number Of her founces than
the cleanliness of her person, more care on
the brilliancy of her head dress, than the con.
dition of her hair.

ANOTHER DEAD SEA-A recent writer gives
the following very interesting description Of
Mono Lake:
Mono Lake is more literally a dead sea-
than the sea of Sodom. According to DR..
Clark, that "sea swarms with fishes, and
shells abound on its shoresD Mono Lake
has neither. Fhe extreme length and breadth
of the Dead Sea are seventy-five by sixteen
miles, giving a superficial area of six hun
dred square miles. Whereas, Mono Lake
contains six hundred and seventy-five square
miles. The river Jordan and Arnon, and
the brook Kidron, besides many rivulets,
empty into the Dead Sea. Into Mono Lake.
McLane's river falls from the south, and
three large brooks or creeks fall into it from
the west. bssides numerous riyulets and
springs all around its borders But this lake
not only responds to the Greek epithet monos
as being alone, solitary, desert d, forsak-
en-" but it also answers to the same adiec-
tive as explained in the Spanish as being
pretty, nice, neat" The lake takes as
many shapes as the points differ from which
you view it. From the west side, about ten
miles from its northern limit it appears like
beautiful crescent. its horns curving deli
cately around you on the right and left. From
the north it appears to be nearly circular,
like the full moon the islands in its waters
strikingly representing the clouded spots on
that planet. From the east it appears to have
no particular shape, but it stretches off ir-
regularly among the mountains. There is
little or no echo around this lake ard indeed
it is difficult to understand person talking
at a iittle distance. A dreamy, spell-like
spirit seems to peryada the atmosphere. The
smooth, CLASSY surface of the waters; the
upheaved, disrupted, volcanic mountains sur
rounding the lake, looking down, as it we're,
into this abyss of their election; the illusion
of vision. and the whitened shores, thickly
columned in many places with vascular lava
which looks like monuments erected to the
mighty dead y all conspire to imPress the
trayed by the pencil of an Omnipotent hand.

The PECULIAR INsTITUTIoN.-On large
plantation, near Lake Providence, there
lives a wealthy Southerner named Gervey
Hood. He lives in state bordering, as he
thinks, on connubial bliss, with quadroon,
for whom he paid 81 500 in New Orleans.--
Two intelligent looking black-eyed, black
haired girls, one Of them about nineteen
years of age, the other about sixteen, are the
fruits of this - union" By the laws Il the
State, in snch cases, the children tszks .,deir
status from their mother, SO that the two
girls are at once Mr.. Hoods daughters and
his slaves and be boasts that if this aboli-
tion war was not in progress, he could get
50, 900 piece for them. Mr.. Hood is looked
upon as the true type of Southern gentle.
man. His wealth is so great that his moral
short t-eommings are entirely overlooked, and
he is received into the best society of the pa
rish as one worthy of acceptance:
