Fashion and Women.

The laws of fashion are as inexorable
as the laws of the Bible, and unlike the
latter, in keeping Of them there is title re
ward 1t is hard service and small pay
An exchange gives the following view Of
the matter:
"Pashon kills more women than toll
and sorrow. Obedience to fashion is
transgression to the laws of womans ma
ture, is a greater injury to her physical
and mental constitution than the hard
ships Of poverty and neglect The slave
woman will live and grow old, and see two
or three generations Of her mistresses fade
and pass away. The washerwoman, with
scarcely q ray Of hope to cheer her in her
tolls, will live to sec her fashionable sis

ancholv truth that fashion pampered wo-
men are almost worthless for all the great
en- Is of human life. They have but little
force of human character; they have still
less power of moral will and quite as little
physical energy. They live for no great
purpose through life; they accomplish no
worthy ends. They are do l-forms in the
hands of miliner. and servants, to be fed
and dressed to order They clothe no
body; they feed nobody; they instruct
nobody; they bless nobody and they save
nobody. They write no books, they set
no rich example of virtue and woman life
If they rear children, servants and nurses

birth And when reared, what are they :?
What do they ever amount to, but weaker
scions of the stock Who ever heard OF
a fashionable womans chi d exhibiting
any virtue or power of mind for which i
became eminent? Read the biographies
of our great and good men and women
Not one of lem had fashionable mother.
They nearly all sprung from strong mind
ed women, who had about as much to do
with fashion as the changing clouds.

their allegiance to the Government.
The present high prices are very far

body who is only tolerably conversant with
history is very well aware; and the fuc-
tuations in the price of gold, notwithstand-

they again received stunning blow, and
