ally to The American standard soci II inAu-
ence, which is naturally and properly admin
iste red by women, will become less aud less
effective; but as longas aristocratic candidates
enjoy an advantage the competition for Office
and for power, there will be room in
a narrower and contracting sphere for COM
petent successors to Lady Palmerston. The
minor diplomacy of ordinary intercourse is
most skifully managed by women, and it is
their proper function to make up quarrels or
rather to avoid them. The most virtuous of
ministers will prefer an acquaintance to q
stranger, and friend TO private enemy.
and the man whose wife has the best judg-
ment and temper is likely to have the small
est number of unpleasant collisions. The
mistress of house which is frequented by
the most eminent members of society has a
cheap bribe always at her disposal. Even if
some Roland the just with ribbons in his
shoes, rejects her overtures, he probably
prides himself on his patriotic self-denal
Yet il is necessary that the model wife
should, if possible teach her minister not to
thwart her well-meant efforts by defects of
manner or of temper. The chief ornament
of Lady Palmerston's drawing was Lord
Palmerston himself, who according to his
well-informed eulogist. always shook the hand
of guest with special air of gadness, even
when he was unacquainted with his face and
his name. The hattering recognition which
lmpucu no personal kuOWleuge seems TO nave
been regarded as satisfactory by the sternest
Liberals and it would have been unwise to
throw away so easy and convenient an instru-
ment of popularity. Lord Melbourne, who
was incomparably superior to Lord Palmer
ston in refinement, in cultivation, and in the
speculative qualities of intellect, was, not
withstanding his equally genial disposition
far less widely popular His wit, his ori-
ginal way of thinking and his natural
sincerity would perhaps have been
more readily appreciated OF tolerated
if an adroit wife had supplied the common
place requisites of social intercourse. Lord
Palmerston threw all his powers into practi-
cal business, and in his hours of recreation
he was content with the level of any company
in which he found himself. 1t was a satisfac-
ton to an ordinary member of Parliament
to find that formidable minister was in pri-
vate life apparently little more than his
equal. Lady Palmerston made the most of
highly favorable opportunities, enforcing by
example the moral that tact is one of the
most useful Of qualities, and that, more than
any other virtue, it is certain to be appre-
ciated

India Cotton.

The cotton commissioner of the Berars and
Central Provinces of India has issued his re-
port of exports to Bombay for the past sea-
son. He estimates the amount at 273,00O
bales, compared with 900, 600 in 1868, and
27G, 600 in 1861. Last year the heavy mon
soon caused much cotton to remain in store
till late in the autumn. This year, owing to
high prices and the continued dry weather,
almost all that has been grown has been sent
to the coast Khangaon and Oomrawuttee
have now earned such reputation for the
staple that the produce of remote districts in
the Nizams and Scindiah's territory is
brought thither in order to try and pass under
the good name of the favored markets.
Presses are generally resorted to. The
Great Indian Peninsular Railway affords
every facility for transport and delivery to
the consignee, and the result IS thaI carriage
by road has almost ceased.
The branch line now under construction TO
Khangaon, and the probability that Oomra-
wuttee will shortly be connected with the
main system, will add still more to the I'M
portance of these places, while the completion
of the railway from Kundwa to Jubbuipore
will increase the area of cotton cultlyaIlon III

CROQUET.

A painter must that poet be,
And lay with brightest hues his pallet,
Who'd be the bard of Croquet'rie
And sing the joy of hoop and mallet.
Given level lawn in June,
And six or eight enthusiastic,
Who never miss their hoops or spoon,
And are on buffers most sarcastic;
Given the girl whom you adore
And given, too, that she's your side on
Given a game not too soon DER,
And meier q bore the lawn espied on:
Given a claret cup as cool
AS ample Wenham ice can make it,
Given a code whose every rule
Is so defined that none can break it'll
Given q very fragrant weed
Given she doesn't mind your smoking;
Given the players take no heed,
And most disereetly keep nom joking;
Given all these-and proclaim,
Be Fortune friendly or capricious-
Whether You win or lose the game
You'll find that Croquet is delicious.
