: GiRLs.-There are two kinds Of girls.
One. is the kind that appears best abroad,
the girls that are good for parties, rides,
visits, balls, etc.. and whose chief delight
is in such things. The other is the kind
that appears best ut home, the girls that
are useful and cheerful in the dining-room,
the sick room, and all the precincts of
home They differ widely in character
One is often torment ut home, the other
a blessing. One is moth consuming ev-
erything about her the other is a sun
beam, inspiring light and gladness all
around her pathway. The right education,
will modify both a little, and unto both
good qualities ip one.

TIM MEssAoE.-The Chicago papers
contain the Message of the President.
We received it too late for this week. A
hurried reading of it gives us the impress
sion that Andy johnson is about as able a
man ms ever handled the mace. We like
it. He tells Congress good many truths
and advises them that he will not be run
over. Next week our paper will con-
tain liberal extracts from it, with such
comments and condensations as time will
permit. His reference to the elevation Of
the African race, to the exclusion of the
southern states, to palpable violations Of
the Constitution, and his hints to Con-
gress that he cant stand much more of its
insolence to the Magistrate who represents
the "whole people" suit US. Per contra,
this discussion does not suit the RAIDS at all.
