Mrs. DR.. WALKERS Bloomer dress ex

Mrs. DR.. WALKERS Bloomer dress ex-
cites the attention of Paris, where the
lady is at present; but another female
who carries "Bloomerism" to even q
greater extent than Doctor Walker,
has attracted no little ogling at the
Grand Hotel. She is very pretty and
dresses in the height of fashion-but it is
"man" fashion-with the jauntiest lit
tie hat, and the neatest fitting coat,
with a rose always in one of its button
holes, tight vest, showing fair devel-
opment of chest, and light paDtaloons,
with patent leather boots. This young
female, whose dress and presence have
Mortified some of the more staid of her
sex at the hotel, is an English girl.

total amount of the tax on tobacco
shipped from that city, if the tax had
been paid here, would amount to about
one million of dollars, from the lst of

much the larger portion of this tobacco
was shipped "in bond" and the districts
to which it was shipped collected the
tax and are credited with it.

The Norfolk Journal, Que of the most in
tensely southern papers, and withal one of
the best edited in Virginia, in abiding TO
the recent munifcent gilt of Mr.. Peabody to
the cause of education in the South, thus
takes occasion TO speak of New England
II is pleasant to read such testimony from
southern source, albeit it has been wrung
from the party uttering it by very profuse-
ness of kindness and benevolence:-
New England has been the worst abused
section OF our common country-nnd yet
she is not quite so bad as she has been occa-
sionally painted The children of the Pill
prims have certainly many redeeming quail
lies, which our dislike for the proverbial vani-
" and vain-gloriousness of the more Pharl-
saical of the race even cannot bin d us to,
and which weare ever ready TO acknowledge.
And while Massachusetts has some OF the
most narrow.minded and illiberal people
within her limits, she can also boast of tho
most liberal, and enlightened, and large
hearted Americans that the continent pro
duces. We have never been of those who
no d that nothing good can come out of cX
IRENE Yankeeland-nor have we ever beer
ashamed to choose from their works. ant
adopt that which is good; nor do we forge
or affect TO scorn the statesmen, and schol
ara, and poets, and literateurs, and men O
science and genius she has produced, and
still producing. We were, therefore, no
astonished that the Massachusetts Crmsu
should have been 80 impartial in his gran
scheme of charity, as TO include the impoV
erished South.

DENOMLNATIONALI IN SUNDAY
SCHOOLS.

The editor of the American Presbyterian,
in lengthy article on the subject of ode
nominationalism in Sunday Schools, says:
"What our church wants now is an apostle
of denominationalism to our Sunday schools;
one who, by voice or pen, shall kIndle in the
scholars minds q glow of interest in our
own church and in its own work, who shall
awaken a concern in their breasts for the
struggling home missionary, who is planting,
amid untold tolls and denials, church like
their own and their fathers; Sabbath
school with their own lessons and library
books; and who is striving to put up a
church edifice in some infant colony in the
west, or in some neglected neighborhood
nearer home. Why should not the ambition
of the school be awakened to sustain wholly
or in part, some such agent Of our own
body, one known to our committee, who will
do work within the limits, and under thu
supervision and for the strengthening of oul
own body, as well as the cause in general
All general work must assume denomna
tional form in time, if 1t is not utterly lost
can it be positive objection that 1t SHOULD
be New School Presbyterian from the star
