Captain Lizard, of her AIsjesty's ship
Hector, by direction of the Admiralty,
at once sent a midshipman on board to
offer Mr.. Bennett the facilities of her
Majesty's dockyard at Portsmouth for
repairing any damages the yacht might
have sustained. But this offer was
gratefully declined, since no repairs are
needed. And thus the winners of the
blue riband of the ocean Derby, enjoyed
their Christmas dinner in merrie Eng

Brocaded dresses are usually cut in the
prI'sceSSe form, and are fastened the en-
tire length of the front, with either
large jet or gimp buttons. They are
made with longer trains than any other
material, and are rarely ornamented
with any trimming whatever. When
these brocadeS are made into low
dressese, berthe, measuring barely
two inches in depth, is added round the
shoulders, and is finished of round the
edge either with white bugle fringe or
narrow white lace. The newest

empress-blue velvet and bordersd with
grebe; another made OF white cashmere
and trimmed with swans-down, and a
third of pale blue satin, edged with err
mine. Instead of the old-fashioned
hood, ladies now wear a small arrange
ment OF white lace on their heads,
which is rather a head-dress than a
hood. The lace is gathered in below
the chignon, and in front describes a
point on the forehead. It proves most
becoming TO the wearer, bus is not of
the slightest use, in keeping the cold
winds from the face and head; conse-
quently, from the door of the opera
house to that of the carriage, those who
are susceptible to sudden changes of
atmosphere are compelled to have re-
course to the more comfortable, if not
SO jaunty, hood. But coquettish French
women appear no longer to care to
walk down the well-lighted, handsome
staircase of the opera-house with their
heads enveloped in the uugraceful
warm coverings called hoods; so ever
since the more tasteful headgear, made
either OF rich point d'Angleterre, or of
yaparous tulle, has come into fashion,
woolen hoods have been put aside.

IHE STREAM OF LIFE.-Life bears us
on like the stream of a mighty river.
Our boat at the first glides swiftly
down the narrow channel, through the
playful murmurings of thelit brook,
and winding along its grassy borders,
the trees shed their blossoms over our
young heads, and the flowers on the
brink seem to offer themselves to our
hands we are in hope, and We grasp
eagerly at the beauties around US; but
the stream hurries US on, and still our
hands are empty.
Our course in youth and manhood is
along wider and deeper flood, and
amid objects more striking and mag
nificent. We are animated by the
moving picture OfeDjoyment now pass
ing before us; we are excited by short
lived success, or depressed and render
ed miserable by shOrt-liveddisappo
ments. But our energy and in6epend-
ence are both in vain. The stream
bears us on, and our joys and griefs
are left behind us; we may be ship
wrecked, but we cannot anchor; our
voyage may be hastened, but we can
not be delayed; whether rough or
smooth, the river hastens towards its
home. The roaring of the waves is be-
meath our keel, and land lessons from
our eyes; the floods are lifted up
around us and we take our last leave of
earth and its inhabitants, and of our
future voyage there is no witness but

THE RACE Won.


Under every inch of canvas, with even
her stay-sail set, and with her racing
flag and Yacht Club ensign proudly
hoating on thestiff breeze, the Henrietta
dashed by the Needles, and Messrs.
Jerome and Knapp, the judges for the
FIeetUtHg and FeStd, decided that all
the conditions of the race had been
strictly complied with, down went the
racing flag and the private signal of Mr..
Bennett took its place. As the yacht
turned up the channel to Cowes the
land shut out the wind and like one
who has finished long and toilsome
task, the brave little yacht slackened
her speed and floated leisurely along.
Her blue lights and rockets announced
hersarrivaI here, after having crossed
the Atlantic to the Isle of Wight in the
unprecedented time of thirteen days,
twenty-five hours and forty-six min
utes meantime, and that without hav-
ing carried away any of her light sails
or spars, or even so much as a shred of
canvas or strand of rope.

PILOT on BOARD.

Running close in to the bold coast we
sighted the Eddystone, Start Point, and
Portland Hill, and at forty minutes
past twelve P. NJ. on Christmas Day
took on board Cowes pilot. A heartier
cheer never rent the air than that which
greeted the pilots announcement that
no other American yacht had passed
up the channel. The race seemed won,
aud a sudden blaze of sunshine lit up
the chalk cliffs of Old England in sill
very gloryi it was like an illumination
of welcome.

To prevent steers from jumping fences

disposition to jump is IS clfectually dcs,
troyed as SIMPSONS power was by the
loss of his locks. The animal will not

grown again. Of this we are informed
by Samuel Thorne, the great breeder of

oxen. 1t was of great value to him, and
he hopes it will be tried by others.

1t may be asked, how is the planter to
find time to consummatc such system
Of improvement as suggest? Who can
carry ont the extensive scheme OF mar
ling, manufacturing manure, subsoiiing
and draining? | answer at once, that
time and labor must both be found for
these things, whatever else may be omit
ted; and that hands must, without hesita-
ton, be taken for these purposes, tl0m
tile crop If q planter works but foar
hands let him give up one, wholly and
solely to them. If he works one hundred
hands, let them appropriate twenty-five.
If he can make as much with three-fonrths
of his force as all can gather in season, of
which have not shadow Of doubt, since
it is estimated, that in time, one half
would do it, he will be doing an infinite
ly better business than he does now. Let
him then devote one.fourih of his labor
to the improvement of his soil. His crop
may be diminished for the first year; in
deed. the effect may be to decrease it for
several years, until his system gets fairly
into operation. Bat in the end, he will
be directly paid for these losses in great.
ly increased crops, and doubly and treby
paid, in the permanently enhanced value
of his lands.
But this view is Immediately connected
with the other great question which | pro-
nose to consider. How are our crops 10
be diyersifede If to make manure we
pen cur hogs and cattle, they must bo
