Elocution.

1t is q remarkable and lamentable
fact, that among all the clergymen Of
this city-and there are a great many Of
them-there are not more than two real
ly good readers, and not half a dozen
who can read respectfully. The great
majority preach and read in a dreary
professional monotone, either sepulchral
like the official voice of an undertaken,
or unctuous and quavering, like that Of
q Chadbsnd. They are not only ignor-
ant of elocution ; they are even ignor-
ant of what elocution is. Some Of them
despise it as something 'artificial," If
not absolutely sinful. The pastor Of
Calvary church seems to think that
there can be no such thing as elocution-
AIRY art, that is o unnatural, mon
strous, e~xecrable." He also has a no.
ton that the orator and the actor ought
not to employ "a style of words and
speech never tolerated in real life"-an
idea too crude, n would suppose, to
be seriously entertained by any intelli-
gent person at the present day. The
great difficulty is, that every man who
is in the habit of speaking or reading
aloud, and who feels what he tutors,
.imagines that he gives moro or less o
ing and affecting expression to what
he feels. This is an illusion which
it is very difficult to get rid of, and
grows stronger and more incurable with
years. Earnest men, of an enthusiastic
temperament, arc especially liable to it.
They get into q habit of speaking emo
tionally-or as they call it, naturally"
Thus they learn to love the sound Of
their own voices, and become absolutely
deaf to imperfsctions and blemishss
which cultivated ears cannot listen to
without pain. Some Of them fall into
sing-song some into solemn monotone;
some into false and unnatural infec-
tons; and in most cases this wretched
~elocution is accompanied by the most
awkward or eccentric g~esticulation. OF
course there is no cure for this, without
consciousness Of the defect; and the
only way to open the eyes Of such
speakers to their faults, is by compare
son with others whom such fault do not
exist. Gould the clergy Of this city
meet half 9 dozen of rhally good anna
teur readers, such as are to be found in
their own congregations, and then take
up a few such pieces as "Shsmus
"The 0cculation Of Orion"
"Hsmlet's Soliloquy," together with
extracts from WHITFIELD, BEEoHER,
WEBSTER, and CLAY, a laymar and o
clergyman reading the same piece al
ternately, we think the preachers might
be brought to realize that there is some.
thing in the art of %elocution well
worthy Of serious study.-S. +. DrG-

INVENTORY OF FEMALE CHARNs.-It Is
not supposed for a moment that ladies
of the present day resort to artificial
means of increasing that native lowell
moss which, "when unadorned is adorn-
ed the most" Their great grandmoth-
ers, however, thought differently; and
so numerous had female falsifcations
become, a century ago, that it was deem
ed necessary to introduce an Act into
the English Parliament in l779, which
provided as follows: "All women, of
whatever age, rank, profession or de-
gree, whether they may be maids or
widows, that shall, from and after this
Act, impose upon and betray into mat
rimony any of His Majesty's male sub
jects by paints, scents, cosmetic
washes, artificial teeth, false hair, Span
ish wool, iron stays, hoops, high-heeled
shoes, or bolstered hips, shall incur the
p~enalty of the law now in force against
witchcraft and misdemeanors, and the
marriage, upon conviction shall stand
null and void"

The GRIZZLY LEDaE.|ohnny Moore
informed US yesterday that the workmen
who are engaged in sinking a shaft IN
the O'Reilly Ledge struck, after running
a drift some tsenty-,ix feet from the
bottom Of the ninety feet shaft, lately
sunk, an immense volume of hot water
which drove them all out of the work.
This is thought, taken in connection
with other encouraging indications, to
DO one Of the best Of signs Of the prox-
unity Of q real assure vein. Experienced
miners 20 regard it, and foretell the
speedy exhaustion Of the volume of hot
water. 1t now fills the entire shaft. So
soon as there are appearances Of q SUBJ
sidence Of this deluge, pumps will be set
at work, the mine drained, and drifting
resumed. We cannot avoid thinking
that the "o'Reilly Ledge" will turn out
something truly handsome before many
months.-Cdrson Appeal, 10th.

TEE P~ittsburg Methodist Conference,
which met lately at Massilon, Ohio,
adopted unanimously the following res,
olutions:
First-That we heartily and emphati-
cslly endorse the action of the Thirty
ninth Congress on the question of recon
struction, and approve the measures
adopted for the final settlement of that
question.
Second-That believing Christianity
to be tho basis and bulwark of civil lib
erty, we hail with joy, as among the
suspicious signs of the times, the Con-
gressional temperance and prayer meet
ings.
Third-That, as righteousness eIslt-
eth q nation, and sin is a reproach to
any people, we will not cease to pray
for our rulers, and will give our infu-
ence and suffrage to elevate to offices Of
trust and profit, men of ~unbending moral

THE RELIEF COMMITTEES.
A. the Southern Relief Meeting, hel

At the Southern Relief Meeting, held
in Virginia city the other evening, sub
committees were appointed to wait upon
our people, all over Storey county, and
collect substantial aid in behalf of the
suffering and starving people Of the
Southern States. Owing to tho horrible
murder of one Of our w%ell-known and
greatly respected citizens, evening be-
fore last, the committees have not yet
started out, but will do so tomorrow
when, We hope, a liberal response will
be made BY all u people, not only in
large but also in small sums-eaeh man
and woman giving according to their
means-the aggregate of which will
sum up to q creditable amount, to be
sent to our fellow-countrymen. in the
South a. q heart-otfsring for their relief
in the misfortunes which surround
them. As Storey county has heretofore
taken the lead in all good public de-
monstrations and benevolent works, so
in this instance will the outside counties
respond proportionate in liberality and
munifcence. At least twenty or twenty
FIVE thousand dollars in gold should be
sent forward as Nevada's offering; and
it can be done, as easy as not. What
over 10 done, let it be done promptly,
and with as little delay as possible all
over the State. The suffering in the
Southern States has never been e1-
aggerated in any Of the publications
that have been made upon the subject.
As q general rule, what has appeared
in the newspapers has fallen far short
Of what has been made known to our
citizens through private letters. The
statements in some Of these letters, COM
ing generally from doctors, clergymen,
lawyers, merchants and prominent citi-
zens, all confirm the sad story that there
is q widespread condition of privation,
amounting in many places to starvation
in the States Of South Carolina,
Georgia and Alabama especially.
It is a ommon thing, when
people are reduced to scanty fare in the
way Of food, to represent such people as
starving, when sometimes it is a mere
p~rivation of Injuries or comforts but
in the case of many of these Southern
districts it is not q mere reduction to
plain food, but it is the absence of a
sufficient quantity to keep some Of the
people from perishing Of hunger; and
men, women and children, both white
and black are perishing from hunger in
all three of the States above named.
This subject is one, therefore, that ap-
peals not only to our generosity and
beneyolence, but to the first instincts OF
our humanity. It is a deplorable thing
to contemplate, that, with all the COM
forts and abundance We have in the
Northern and Western States, large
numbers Of our people should be dying
from hunger in the Southern States.
