Though the pure consciousness of wor-
thy actions, abstracted from the personal
views of popular applause, be an evident,
ample reward to the philanthropist, yet the
desire for fame and distinction among the
sons Of earth vas undoubtedly implanted in
human nature as an additional incentive to
exert our faculties in yirtuous excellence.

that she. far more than he. and too often in

Let him be grateful Tor this, that almost
every great soul that has led forward, or
lifted up the race, has been furnished for
each noble deed and inspired with each pa
triotio and holy inspiration, by the retiring
fortitude Of some Spartan or more than Spar
tan-some Christian mother. Moses, q e
deliverer of his people, drawn out of the
Nile by the kings daughter, some has him

mans better instincts always outwIt the ty-
rannical diplomacy of man. Let him care

achieves enterprise on public theatres, it is
the nerve and sensibility ofwoman that arms
the mind and inhames the soul in secret
"a man discovered America, buta woman

trains the man. Every effectual person,

Licentious Fashions.

It is q remarkable fact, says a writer,
that the most over-dressed epochs of civil
ization have been the most licentious The
question forces itself upon the mind of the
observing man as he passes along the prin-
cipal prOmenades, says the New York
Times, "Is not this an epoch of the over
dressed. aud is il not lcentious?" Modes
ty has given way to meretFieious display,
and pride of appearance has degenerated
into conspicuous formalities which once
were confined to che courtesan. The stran-
ger would not believe that our money is
less than par value. or that the industrious
are without employment. The prevailing
weakness is display. from the matron and
maid to the commonest servant. If the
costly and rare goods cannot be had there
is a profusion of the imitation. which, to
the uneducated eye, affords equal satislae-
ton. How all this show is maintained is a
question for the leisure of moralists and
economists. LiceuIiousDess has to do some
of it. no doubt. Ifso, is there limit be-
ycnd which it may not GO?
Well we beg lesve to ask, what is the
remedy? We have become worried with
the incessant growing at the puerile stu
pidities and the destructive fooleries of the
fashionable What is the use of frettiug
about It? If there is remedy. out with
it. adopt it, and be done with it.
IL is pleasant for journals of pecunious
to pander to morbid passion for
md of platitades as We are all the
Gearing and reading about the gentli-
ty s5f our large cities. but what does il all
amount to if there be no help for it? We
gave ths other day an account ofa Women s
Convention at Stuttgart. Germany, for the
purpose of adopting such styles Of dress as
are most convenient, and holding on to
them as long as the material viii last-but
we venture to say that niOe-tenths of the la
dies who are interested In that movement
are toe impecunious to afford the richness
and the eternal changes prescribed by that
French demon, known as the Goddess of
Fashion.
Is there a remedy, or is there not? II
not, we might as we'll hush up aud let the
thing run its round of splendid and fatal
dissipation. AS the dead flies make the hon
ey stink, so does the putridity of rotten Iv
ers. hearts and lungs produced by this gen.
teel and exclusively respectable life, cause

ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL.-At festival party
of old and young, the question was asked,
which season of life IS most happy? After
being freely discussed by the guests, it
was referred for answer to the host. upon
whom was the burden Of four score years.
He asked if we had noticed grove Of trees
before the dwelling. and said, when
the spring comes. and IN the soft air the
buds are breaking on the trees. and covered
with blossoms, think how beautiful is
spring And when summer comes. and
covers the trees with its heavy foliage. and
singing birds are all among the branches,
think how beautiful is summer When au-
tumn loads them with golden fruit and their
gorgeous tipt Of frost. think how beauti-
ful is autumn And when it is sere win
ter, through the leshess branches. as l new
