GIFTED FROM THE DIARY OF A.
TRAVELLER OF THE INDIEs-Last
eve, as the great red sun of tho
Orient cast its last keen, sweeping
glances DER its fair dominions, we
sailed up the bright dancing waters
of the bay OF Pleasure" called in
the native tongue 'Ching-ar-ora,"
a literal translation of which is,
bay of Pleasure;" and it is fairly
named, for more delightful val
ley than that which bounds and
bushes the gentle, gurgliDg waves
Of the Chingarora was ne'er seen
by the broad eye of the sun. The
gentle ascent which extends far
north of the Bay is all blushing
with rosy fruit, while the great
fields to the south, at first glance.
seem q slightly undulating sea;
but in looking more carefully you
discover this seeming expanse of
water to be a broad field of luxur-
liant tobacco, (called the Chingar-
ora.) gently waving in the balmy
breeze. The natives are a tall,
naughty, noble-looking race, and
never without the inevitable pipe,
from which issues huge columns OF
rich smoke; and as one peers wise
ly at you, and puffs, as he peers,
you are somewhat comically and
forcibly reminded that
ale who smokes thinks like philosopher"

Advice for Young Ladies, Gratis

The Cincinnati Commercial de-
votesa column editorial to consid-
Grafton of the fact, that large num-
bers of young men, in all our Am
erican cities, are deferred from en-
gaging in matrimonial alliances by
a consciousness of inability to sup
port a wife and family in the rul-
ing style of extravagance, and clos
es its article thus:
"Let marriageable ladies, there
fore, if they do not aspire to pre-
petual single blessedness, emanci-
pate themselves from the slavery
of Fashion, and thereby reduce their
bill of costs in the matrimonial
suit, and swell the ranks of their
suitors. We DO not want our beau
ties dress in sackcloth, but we
would have them cherish the whole
some truth that it is themselvs-
their refined accomplishments, soft
ening infunces-which charm and
attract the sterner sex toward
them. The expensive elegance and
grogeous magnnifcence of their
dress and surrounding may excite
a momentary admiration, and en-
hance the euchanmcnt which their
presence exerts. But these cost
" luxurios will surely awaken
heartless calculations of dollars and
cents, and enable filthy lucre, to
drive away hosts Of devotees from
the shrine of love"
