We should like to see the ladies get
hold of the chap who wrote the follow

make mince meat of him? But then,
dear ladies, no one believes him; no,
indeed, not bit of III The idea OF
any lady wearing a ''patent heaverl''
Preposterous! We publish it merely
to let the girls know what mean, des-
picable men live in the world! OH
the wretch!
Cotton and horse hair have long
been used for the purpose of develop
ing the 'female form divine" but ar
ti6cial means of a more elaborate ma
ture are oftentimes employed. Ap-
paratus known as respirators-or
"patent heavers," as they are some
times called-are in vogue. These
consist of a pair of rubber bags, which
can be blown up Like life-preservers,
and, when filled with air, answer the
purpose of the natural breast, so far as
external purposes are concerned =
They vary in price from FIVE to ten dol
lars, and are manufactured to consid-
cradle extent in the Bowery.
To supply the deficiency of plump,
well-rounded arms, our fashionable
lady has her sleeves padded, lined with
cotton and wool, The padding is a
cheap process. costing from nothing up
to few dollars, and is much in vogue
for evening dresses dsy5 .
The italian women ofhigh rank, in
the olden time, painted the palms of
their hands, so as to produce delicate
effect. Our American ladies of the
present day not only paint the hand,
but powder it. They paint the veins
so as to produce a delicate effect
Cream paste is also applied to the
hands. Blue pencilling is done, and
various French preparations used
The nails are regularly trimmed,
cleaned, and colored with fine pow
der, applied with brush. To keep
the hand in proper trim costs about
fifty dollars year
Corsets, having so much to do with
the beauty of the female figure, are, of
course, largely used. When the lady's
waist is large, and she wishes to re-
duce the size, the whalebone of the
corsets is replaced by steel. Corsets
are often padded about the waist and
hips, so as to give those parts round
ed look. Corsets are of all qualities
and shapes, and range in price from
seventy-fve cents to thirty dollars.
The subjectof female limbs is very
delicate one, and we would pass it by,
were it not thatwe are pledged to give
a full and truthful account of how
woman is made up. False calves are
very much used in New York by ac-
tresses, women of pleasure, and women
of fashioa as well. They cost from
seven to ten dollars, and are warranted
to look in all respects like the natural

church panic. Here is the story:
The floor of the Congress stree,
Methodist church, in Troy, took fire
from a defective fue during the ser.
vices on Sunday afternoon, and a
rush was made for the doors. Wo-
men and children screamed, and
many men pushed and struggled in
the effort to escape. Some of the
congregation endeavored to quiet the
tumult, as it was evident that the
danger was not immediate, and some
one>struck up familiar tune, which
was taken up by others, and durine
the singing partial quiet was restored.
The fire was quickly extinguished.

poses.
With such gratifying figures before
them the people naturally inquire. what
became of all the money collected un-
der the administration of Andy John,
son, when the taxes were higher than
they are nows No one will pretend to
deny that Al run things in the inter
est of the Democratic party. But
where did the peoples money go?
President Grant has shown how rap
idly the debt can be extinguished by
an honest and economical administra-
ton of the peoples affairs. We do not
know that President Grant has any idea
of being candidate for the succession
in 1872, but one thing is sure, if he
continues in the good work he has
commenced, the people will feel that it
is no time to "swap horses" and COM
pei him to take the Office for a second
term. Honesty and economy have
been his watehwords from the begin
ming, and the gratifying result shows
his close adherence to them up to this
time. We predict, from what we know
Of his character, that he will persevere
on to the end in. the same line, even if
the people require him to take eight
years to do it in. 1t is with no little
satisfaction we give our readers from
month to month such gratifying figures,
for it is truly "GooD NEWS" to tax
burdened people. PATIENCE, yet lit,
tie while longer, friends, and the morn
ing will break in all the glory and ra-
dance ofa sunlight ofprosperity and
true advancement-based upon an hon
orable fidelity to the trusts imposed
upon you. Patience and courage in
the good work on your part gives en-
couragement to the President in the
glorious work he is trying to perform,
for your interest and that alone.

wonu Look Upon ,heIr own Work.

The members of Congress appointed
to investigate some contested election
cases in South Carolina and Louisiana
have refused to visit those States at all.
For some reason they decline to 60 to
the places where full, accurate and reli-
able information upon the matters be-
fore them may be had. Whether their
minds are already made up, we shall not
undertake to say. The Journal Of Com
merce remarks:
Radical Congressman are perfectly
willing to cross the continent, travel
through New England, voyage to San
Domingo or go to the uttermesS parts
of the earth at public expense, but they
will not visit the South. Nothing can
induce them to,explere the States lately
in rebellion and see with their own eyes
how little they know of the people and
the public sentiment down there"
When tho war was over few "loyai'
Congressman did visit the South, but it
was upon purely partisan mission. Sen
ator WILSON aud Judge KELLEY went
down there, preached discomfort to the
black masses, disorganized the labor
system by inducing the negroes to break
their contracts, melted a few very
bloody ard, for Radical purposes, very
opportune riots just on the eve OF i'm
portant elections, and returned bone

that abominable nuisance, the 'Loyal
League IL was KELLEY who made to the
blacks the most mischievous, iDtiamma-
tory ra6ble.roasing speeches that ever
fell from the lips Of any prominent man
in this coantry. But neither then, nor at
any subsequent time, did any Republican
leader undertake to find out the material
needs of the South. How to revive her
commerce, build up her waste places, fos-
ter her agricultural interests, and re-
store her dead prosperity questions of
.his sort have rot been deemed by Radi
cal Congressman, worthy of coll
.ide ratioa. Partisan interests die
tate their course in legislation and else
where. The great problem with them
is how to preserve the party that fat
tens them. Beyond this, the situation
has no problem of interest or merit.

The AlabanIn Question.

What has become of the Alabama
question The topic which a few
months ago was in the mouth of every
body, and about which the croakers
and alarmists were fully persuaded the
people of England and America would
speedily be cutting the throats OF each
other, has slipped out of sight SO quietly
and so suddenly that noue knew 1T was
going until it was gone. So dead is it that
we doubt if SUMNER, or any other char-
latan, could so far galyaniz, i. as to
mako it again useful far Advertising
purposes. Some think the loyal folks
are holding it in reserve as valuable
political "isshoo," when the negro shsll
have been played out, but as the negr
seems likely to kill Radicalism before
Radicalism gets rid of the negro, we
question if rsserving and nourishing
the Alabama business will prove sue,
cessful political map9uvre.

An Amelia WhIauer.

At one of our Methodist churches, a
night or two since. after a season of
prayer, the ,parson diversified the exeI-
cises with au exhortation, in the course
of which he waxed eloquent, and drew
tears from the eyes of some of the mem-
bers by the earnestness Of his remarks.
Finally he cutmiDated with the Sen
tence: "Methinks i hear an angel whis-
per-" The preacher would have proba-
bly, communicated to the audience the
subject of the angels whisper, but at
this moment a strong lunged jackass in
the immediate neghborhood opened out
with musical hee-baw, the rising snd
falling infection of>which might have
been heard within a radius of ten
squares. The congregation snickerGd
audibly, and the ghost of smile played
over the amiable eounteDance of the
preacher. All seemed to unite in the
opinion that, for a whisper, it was
little too loud.-Corydon Democrat.

about week ago with a stock of cana

Sunday night Mr.. STUDIES store was
broken into, and one hundred and
eighty one small cages broken open,

took four nightingales and as many
mocking birds. On opening the store
Mr.. Stude found in common handket-
chief thrush just alive, and four or
five birds dead on the floor, beaides o
tailless robin painting with fright in a
cage. While the thieves were at work
inside, two confederates sat on the step

were making inside. Mr.. Stude has a

Health OF School Children.

The Medical College of Middlesex,
Massachusetts,, having for long time
considered the influence of public
schools OH the health of children, au.
thorized the publication of the follow
ing facts as the opinion of its men,
bers:
l. No child shall be allowed to attend
school before the beginning of his sixth
year.
=. The duration of daily attendance
including the time given to recess and
physical exercises-should not exceed
four and a half hours for the primary
school; five ard half for other schools.
3. There should be no study required
out Of school-unless at High School /;
and this should not exceed one hour.
4. Recess-time should be devoted to
play outside of the school. l.room-un less
during stormy weather-and Is this
time rightfully belongs to the pupils,
they shonld not be deprived of it except
for serious otfenses; and those who are
not deprived Of it should not be all lowed
to spend it in study; no child should
ever DO confined to the school-room
during an entire session, and in primary
schools there should be more than one
recess in each session.
5. Physical exercise should be used in
school to prevent nervous and muscular
fatigue and to relieve moaotony, but
not as muscular training. 1t should be
practiced by both teacher and children
in every hour not broken by recess, and
should be timed by music. In primary
schools every halfhour should be broken
by exercise, recess or singing.
6. Ventilation should be amply pro-
vided for by other means than by open
windows, though these should be used
in addition to special means during re-
cess and exercise time.
I. Lessons should be scrupulously ap-
portioned to the average capacity of
the pupils; and in primary schools the
slate should be used more and the book
less; and the instruction be given as
much as possible on the principle of
"obiect teaching

Mtssissippi.

The Mississippi "Loysl Leaguers" are
calling loudly on Senator WILSON to
come into their State and save. the negro
vote to the Radical ticket. 1t seems
the black brother is getting rather OBJ
streperous on their hands, and they fear
his perversity will carry him to such a
length that he will vote for DENT.
Something must be done and that right
speedily, and so in their extremity they
invoke the Massachusetts, Senator to
come to the rescue. Their consterna-
tion is rendered more amusing by their
explanation, that they haven't any doubt
of ALcoRN's election, even if DENT
should get a good share of black votes,
but they deem it important for future
elections to keep the colored voters
united and within the fold of the Re-
publican party"
We are heartily glad these Radical
people are getting surfeit of negro
suffrage. They never would have
dreamed of giving the ballot to the
black, had they not supposed they
could control his vote for all time to
come. So supposing, they forced the
measure through, against the better
judgment of the whole country and over
the protest Of the people of the South.
They now realize that the negro is as
likely to ke controlled by one party as
another, and when he is controlled by
Democrats he is that much strength
they never would have had but for the
'1oyal" policy of epfranchising him. By
the time two or three more elections
have been bad in the South, the Radi-
calls will have learned fine lesson on
the subject of placing the ballot in i'm
proper hands, merely because they think
| they can control those who WELD it.

The Tahiti Messenger, the official

Coolie ship. The vessel was becalned
off Byron Island, when a revolt occurred.
About 300 Kanakas were aboard, who
were on deck at the time receiving pre-
sentj. The captain and several others
were killed Instantly. The mate and q
portion of the crew escaped below, and
were besieged by the natives.
Partly armed, they resolved below to
blow the upper deck of, and powder
was disposed accordingly. The explo-
sion blew or frightened all tho Kanakas
from the vessel, and the shock was like
an earthquake. The sailors rushed on
deck and found the sea completely COW

the island. The list of killed, was0D.
