EXTRAVAGANCE In MALE ATTIRE.

We called at :. large importing house
in Broadway, not long ago, which an
nounces itself as dealing solely in men S
under wear, and amazing were our dis
coveries. We came suddenly upon a
large room, which we at first mistook for
parte,re of tropical flowers in full bloom,
but which. on examination proved to be
the sample room for mems neckties.
Such patterns, such styles, such colors,
we had never imagined to be possible in
enthusiastically colors There was
one collection of such flaming, glowing,
blazing, burning red, that we involuntari-
ly asked the proprietor if the insurance
companies didn't rate them as extra
hazardous, on account of fire. We
hardly felt safe, and longed for a fire
engine to come and play on those neck
ties, and put them out.
The prices of some of the specimens of
mems under wear" which we saw in
that vast establishment ran up to a fright
full figure, especially those of the we'd
ding gear. We will set down list of
some of the articles, at what we were told
wers the usual retail prices for them in
Broadway shODS.

Total Wedding Under Ware,

Total Wedding Under Ware, 1856
We were told that the price of men S
fancy pocket handkerchiefs, like that of
fancy horses, is limited by nothing but
fancy. A handkerchief can be made as
costly, by the use Of fine lace and en-
broidery, as the folly of snobs may desire.
Why man should desire to wear gor-
geous suspenders at his wedding it is diff
feult to imagine, unless it be that he may
have the felicity of hanging them over
chair at night, for the purpose of daz-
zhng the eyes and exciting the admira-
ton of his intellectual bride The rest
OF the extravaganza under wear is doubt
less put On that the bridegroom may
show to advantage in a bridal chamber
war dance, or tandango, or other exhila-
rating gymnastics, preliminary to his
settling down to the sober realities of do
nestle life.
In addition to all this absurd extrava-
gance for mems under WEAR there is
much more of similarly wasteful sort.
There are meerschaums, and tobacco, and
jewelry, and beverages, and lover wear"
and canes, and card cases, and all manner
OF follies, which entail domestic Dispute
tudes, and lead to home discomforts,
which it is vain to expect that servant
girls or servant men can remedy.-OLIvER
DYER, IN Rackards Monthly, for Man.

The interesting fact is noted, that
through long period, James Harper, of
New York, who died recently from being
thrown out of his carriage, had been ac-
customed in his family devotions to pray
for dehverance from sudden death
His family noticed that for week or two
before his departure he had omitted that
petition. Mr.. Harper had also stated to
= devout friend, with whom he coaversed
. few days before the casualty which ter
minated his career, that some morning
the announcement would be seen in the
paper, Died, suddenly, James Harper"
but he added, ''all viii be well, l am
ready"

MILE.
The Story of Beautiful Young Wild.
OW who Advertised for Husband.

from the New Haven Palladium
In the latter part of February there ap-
peared in one of the New York papers
the following: 57..
"a young widow, l9 years of age, of
high standing in society, and having a
large fortune in her own right, wishes to
correspond with thoroughly educated
young man of equal standing IN society,
with view to matrimony. Photographs
exchanged. The reason for resorting to
this method to obtain husband wife be
satisfactorily explained Address Mile
Stanton, Station D, New York city. f"
Among the persons who answered this
advertisement was dashing young gentle
man who does not live more than league
from this city. His letter was very brief,
but sufficiently ample in language to give
the young widow Of nineteen an idea of
what sort of fellow he was. The young
gentleman Whose name is withheld at
special request enclosed his 'picter, and
as it was a very correct prsentment of a
rather handsome man, it seemed to make a
quick impression on the heart of his fair
correspondent. A few days later the young
gentleman received an answer to his letter.
This, like his own, was brief, and read as
follows

Side Walks.

/
! We again call the attention of the Council
to the deplorable condition Of the side walks,
| even in the business portion of the town.
There is very little, if any, first rate side
walks. Most Of it is several years old, and
large share of it presents cvidcnce-appar>
ens-of being nearly Old enough to vote
There is hardly an inch Of good walk on
Broadway, from the northeast corner Of the
public square, where it commences, to the
Methodist Church, where il erds. The walk
ought to be extended over, or through, that
sink hole just north of Aliens block. There
ought to be a street crossing at the north
cast corner Of the public square, There ought
to be walk run the length of the stl Get north
Of the public square, from Broadway to Pages
Hall, with street crossings There ought to be
a crossing at the north west corner and south
west corner Of the public square. The side
walk a ong by Wallaces Furniture Rooms.
ought to be graded, levelled and extended in
to continuous and harmonious whole. The
side walk on the east side of Broadway
through the business portion of the town.
from Aliens Block at east to Mr.. Cannon's
residence, should be taken up and relaid
with new and tro inch material. Hardly any
one can now pass its length, especially at
night. WI thout painful consciousness Of its
utter insecurity, not to say dangerous charac-
ter. There is no earthly reason that we
ever heard suggested, or that We could con-
ceive Of, 10 account for the extravagant in.
activity of the corporation in respect of the
side walks and street crossings.
We have heretofore forborne to say inre.
gard to this matter what 50 many of the good
people of Toledo think about this thing, and
what, too. we have been persistcntly urged by
good men here TO say. But the autumn sea-
son approaches and nothing comparati' ely has
been done. Much ought to be done, yet and
if the sidewalks and streets of Toledo are to
rendered passabie and traversable on foot
during the coming winter and spring some
thing ought to be done right away. No time
is 10 lie lost.
Do you desire to have it said that your town
is running down, is falling TO pieces? If SO
the surest way to accomplish this end, is to let
the side walks and streets get into the state of
disrepar and insecurity they have now fall
en- into and permit them to r. man so.
Arc not he individuals, composing the coun-
Gil. men of enterprise men who take pride in
the growth and prosper.tj Of tie town where
in they make there homes? Do they desire
. the streets of the town to retire into such n
state of insecurity and disrclair that they shall
be bycword and a icproach. The facts are
that Toledo deserves and must have, better
sides walks, more side walks, better and
more stree; crossings, We need these be.
