THE MODEL YOUNG WOMEN.

l. The model young women take care of
their health, by proper observance of the laws
of health in all ways, but especially with re-
gard to diet, dress and exercise. Her diet is
simple and spariug. Her dress is so con-
strncted as to keep her person warm-espe-
eially in the lower extremities and not to
impede locomotion. She exercises frequently
in the open air, thus bringing the flush of
health to her cheek, Eelllliss l.ss!.s and lifs
blood, unhindered by light lacing, to every
part of the system.
2. She is modest. Nodesty is "synony-
nous with chastity and purity of manners" !"
There is such thing as aaeeting modesty some
times seen among womei but whenever this
is witnessed, it is the sure evidence that the
genuine article is missing, for it is always un-
affected and natural Unaffected modesty
is the sweetest charm Of femaleexcefience, the
richest gem in the diadem of their honor
Modesty is natural to women, and may be pre-
served by cutiVating only the sweetest and
purest thoughts.
0. She has good taste. Taste IS
nice perception, or the power of perceiving
and relishing excellence in human performan-
ces it is the faculty Of discerning beauty, or
der, congruity, proportion, symmetry, or what
ever constitutes excellence" 1t is not alto
gether natural, nor is it entirely acquired, but
it may be highly cultivated. Good taste viii
manifest itselfi the dress and conversation
and general appearance; and will regulate al
her intercourse with others, especially will
those of the opposite sex. 1t will abash thu
vulgar and impure, and encourage ant
strengthen the good. Modesty and good tast'
will build around the possessor a strong towe
of defense.
4. She is intelligent. She acquires intel
ligence 10 oil suitable ways, especially by oh
servetion, reading, aud conversation. Sh
looks upon the world around her as a grea
volume of facts wrought out by the Almight
Arti6cer, and proper for her to study; and
the tiny leahet or granite boulder, she sees th
work of God and endeavors to understand i
She reads good books carefully, and tries t
make the facts and ideas contained tharei
her own. Her conversation is with. the goo
and in it she is getting or giving truth. 81

How to Form one Regiment.

I.
The Richmond papers boast that the Rebel
army is growing in numbers and in strength
but if the following paragraph, which the
Nashville Union copies from the montgomery
(Als.)I Advertiser of the 9Th instant, be true,
we may easily see now much foundation there
is for such boasting:
"a friend banded US a copy of the Mont
gomery Advertiser of the 5th, from which we
learn that the Sd, 18th, 2Ist; 22a, 26th, 9th,
28th, and, 3lst Louisiana Regiments have
been consolidated into one, to be known as the
22d."
When it takes eight old regiments to make
one new one, we know how the thing goes.

The IRISH EMIGRATION TO THE UNITED
STATEs.-The Cork Examiner gives remark
able description of the emigrants who are
still leaving that port in large numbers for the
United States. 1t says there are among them
some old people and young children but the
bulk are stalwart young men, full Of health
and vigor, and young women gaudily dressed,
but their bad taste cannot conceal the beau
ty, the activity, the bounding health for which
the Irish peasant girl has been so remarkable.
Among them all there is scarcely one to be
seen poorly attired. The goods of-each party
show that small farmers household has been
broken up. Their conduct is remarkably
steady. Though hundreds have sometimes to
wait at Queenstown for the steamer, there is
very little drunkenness among them, and sell
dom Spree though they are noisy enough
sometimes. The Examiner thinks that few
of the emigrants are recruits; there is none OF
the swagger which so commonly betrays the
aspirant for glory and bounty. 1t is true the
passage is paid in many cases with American
money, but it is with the money Of their rela-
tives to whom they are going. The Exam
iner denies that Federal recruiting is in any
important degree the stimulus to Irish emf
grafton, and adds 1T arises out of the condi-
tion of the country and the dazzling, if not per-
fectIy trustworthy prospect held out by the
labor market Of the Northern States

Fruit Prospaets.

l have examined (says NJ. B. Bateham, o
Columbus) the fruit trees of various kinds il
quite a number of localities around the city
and am happy to say the prospects are moi
quite as unfavorable as represented in the
Journal of this morning.
Apples are considerably injured, especially
the early varieties, but enough have escaped
to afford an average crop, and it is not likely
the buds will be injured after this time.
Peaches are badly injured all the fruit buds,
and most of the small branches being killed
but do not think many of the trees will die
from the effects of the winter unless they we're
very old or previously diseased. They were
as badly injured in 1856, and many persons
thought them killed, but most of them recov-
cred the following summer The trees need
to be pruned generally, as soon as the buds
have started, cutting back all the limbs to
healthy bark and buds. The dark color of the
wood under the bark need not cause apprehen-
sion.
Cherries, of the sweet or heart varieties are
much injured-the fruit buds all killed-but
these are not much grown here. The MorellO,
or tart kinds, are less damaged perhaps half
the buds killed. ....
PIums and pears are damaged considerably,
but some kinds seem but little injured, and
but few trees will be likely to die, if the dead
branches are cut away after the leaves start,
so as to show where to cut.
Grapes are very little, if at ALL injured,
especially where trained against buildings or
fences. They should be Immediately trimmed,
if not already done, as the vines will bleed
badly if cut after warm weather sets in.
Currants, gooseberries and strawberries are
not generally injured. Raspberries of the
Antwerp, or foreign kinds, are killed where
not protected; but the Black Cap and other
native sorts have escaped, as far as have OBJ
served them.
Roses of the finer kinds are badly damaged
by the winter, but if the tops are cut off down
to the ground, or as far as dark color, they
will shoot again, and be none the worse for
the decapitation.

Plenty ofCotton.

1t is stated in carefully prepared article
in the Manchester (Engand) Examiner that
the quantity of cotton likely to flow into the
British markets the coming year, will be q
100000 bales, or fully equal TO the imports oI
the year 1857, the largest year but one on
the list.
This is the result Of the stimulation of high
prices in all the cotton growing districts out
side of North America.
The sooner therefore the rebellion is put
down, the better for the leading agriculture
interests Of the Southern States, and one o
the greatest interests of the whole country.

RIoULTURAL
Tree Planting.

Tree Planting. .-..
The season of the year is now approaching
when those, in town and country, who wish
to set out fruit trees should make arrange
ments to have it attended to. There Is no
more economical way of identifying ones pre-
mises-and we may also say Of adding. to their
value-than By. planting trees that afford
shade and yield fine fruit. How much, the
value Of farm is Increased, to say nothing
Of the comfort, by this means. Compare the
farm house that sits embosomed in refreshing
shade and fragrant shrubberyi and the one
that stands bare and exposed to the full glare
of the MONDAY sun. We need not tell our
readers that everybody prefers the former to
the latter. And then how to have a few
shade trees scattered about the pasture.felds,
beneath which the lowing herd can recline
when the sun is too warm for them to crop
the herbage. Cattle thus protected are kept
in better condition than those which are con
stantly exposed to the heat of the day. Who
does not want fne orchard on their farm or
few choice fruit trees around his dwellings
In the old world much more attention is paid
to tree planting than here. In some coun-
tries of Europe, the authorities of the towns
cause beautiful trees to be planted along both
sides of the public, highway, and traveller
may journey for miles beneath the most deli-s
cious shade. Then, again, almost every town
has its shaddy square, and each city its extern
sive parks. How good an example for the
people of this country to follow. .--'4 geo

ment, that we feel justified in urging it upon
the attention of all who have the care Of or
chards. Ordinary soft soap from soapboiler
may usually be applied full strength, without
fear of injury; but it is safer to reduce one
half, with water. .s
Potash dissolved in water, Is also good
One pound of potash to four gallons Of water
for old trees, is as strong as it is safe to apply
This will kill the ''scales, moss, and all worms
and insects with which il comes in contact
For young trees it is better weaker solution

This was done. A suit was commenced,
