On PETTIcoATs.-Elhu Burritt has been making
calculations about women's petticoats-quee
business for a learned blacksmith, and says that
more than 0,00O tons of steel are put into crino-
line in Christendom annually Upon this the
Boston Traveller remarks Such is the magnit-
ude of crinoline considered from business point
of view and no wonder that the article takes up
much room in the world Twenty million
pounds of iron worked up yearly into petticoats
and carried about by the delicate creatures 1t
must be far greater burden than their sins
But they get along very well with it, and thrive
under its weight. Iron, according to Scion, is the
most potent of all things, conquerng even gold S
owners and ladies find it a very useful. article
in making their conquests. Just it rules the
court, the campfire grove and is potential every
where, from castle to cottage; in every this
is the Age of Iron even women acknowledging
the rule of the government of metals, a rule that
literally encircles them Those who would abo..-
ish the hoop must see that they have great inter
est to contend against, and that all good conser-
natives are bound to oppose them.

o. Fancy sweet Fancy ! thou angel of light,
Thou once vert my solace, my joy, my delight J;
followed thy footsteps whereer thou dldst
lead
How delightful those wand 'rings-how pleasant
indeed.
Thy pathway was strown with the sweetest OF
flowers,
And often we rested meath green, shady bowers !;
By bright, sparkling fountains we oft fingered
And poured forth our souls in the measures OF
song
Till Nature, enraptured, seemed hushed in re-
pose
To list to the songs from our hearts that arose I;
And then singing birds caught up the refrain,
And echoed it far over valley and plain
Till the whole vast creation with harmony
thrill'd,
And our souls with the sweetest of raptures were
filled.
Stern Reality comes and her presence has
child
Each delightful emotion that once my soul
thrill'd;
At the touch of her hand Fancy folds her light
Shrinks away in alright from the woes that she
brings;
And croucbng in caverns SO deep in the brain
That Hopes fond caresses are lavished in vain
To WOO the bright fairy, to soar once again,
nd relieve the poor soul from its burden OF pain.
That cold touch, so real, she cannot forget
Her bright sun of glory forever has set !
If at times she peeps forth from her dark cho-
sen lair,
She only sinks back with q deeper despair;
For colder, more gloomy Reality seems,
Till dream now no more youths once bright,
happy dreams.

OUR CANADIAN CoUsISs.-An utterly errone-
Gus impression prevails in this country, says the
Syracuse Journal, in regard to the state of pub
lie opinion in the Canadas. 1t is generally be-
lieved that we have very few friends on the other
side of our Northern boundary line and that
even those few would not shed many tears at the
dsmemberment of the foremost power on this
Continent. The real state Of the case is altogether
otherwise. The number of those who synpathsc
with the traitors of the South is far less in the
British Provinces than in our own free States
The eminent men of the Coones-the principal
statesmen-are nearly all favorable TO the re-es-
adjustment of the American Union and abolition
of African bondage

FRENCH JoKE-The last joke at the expense
of the French Society for the Protection of Ami

before the President Of the society, and claims
the first prize. He is asked to describe the
act of humanity which he founds his claim.
" saved the life of wolf, replies the country
man I" might easily have killed him with this
,bludgeou," and he swings his weapon in the
air to the intense discontinue of the President.
" But where was this WOLF" inquiries the latter

A WAR BLAST
Didn't it blow last night,
Didn't the rain pour down
Didn't the pavements get well washed,
Throughout the filthy town?
o, my, oh
Didn't it blow, and rain, and snow
Didn't it, though?
We'll it did!
Didn't the women run
Didn't they scream with fright!
Didn't the shutters slap and bang
Through all the livelong night
O, my, oh

Didn't it, though
RI bet you'

Didn't the price of butter 60
To fifty cents ?-alas

Didn't it blow, and rain, and snow
Didn't it, though?

And things won't be so high

Didn't it blow, and rain, and snow
Didn't it, though?
