! Woman's Beauty. IN 1a

There is great deal said about our beau
ty,a great deal done to make ,ls beautiful.
How? In spirit Not at ell. TO be ply
sically beautiful is our aim. For this we
done the costly bonnet, the dainty boot,
friz our hair. paint our faces. To this
end we devote our lives, sacrifice health,
mind, heart, and strength.
From the cradle we are taught that we
must be beautiful. We are shut up in the
house, away from the glad sunlight and
pure air to protect our fair compilations :;
dressed in corsetsan6 crinolines to improve
our forms; gathered and thinly hoscd in
the dead of winter. that our feet might be
petite and attractive. Our brothers run,
laugh loud whistle, get tanned, wear stout
boots and warm clothes--but we dont--it
isn't "lady-like," They grow strong in
the gymnasium or at the woodpile, while
we crochet, practice the last song, behave
with propriety, and sometimes make
cake" They go to college, grow indie
pendent, go out into the woald, make their
mark, while we, who are attractive, get
married, and we, who are not, teach school
make dresses and fade out. Some of US
live in the country In that case, we milk
cows, make butter and cheese, and help
send our brothers to school, learn how to
cook, and get husband.
Sometimes we are ambitious to acquire
strength OF mind to study and investigate
for ourselves. Twenty-three of Us request
ed admittance to Wabash College, Ind,
but were refused because we were women.
At Oberlin they have "Gentleman's
Course" and Ladies' Course" because
we have nothing to doin life but get mar
ried, while our brothers, you know, must
bellawyers, doctors, ministers. etc. o. q
. Two or three of us make speeches, but
our brothers and the church members say
that we unsex ourselves; that we are try
ing to be men !; that we are disappearing
God for making us women. saF
The majority of men admire us for our
physical beauty alone, and then wonder
why we aim at nothing else.
l know a young lady, living in the
vicinity Of q college, who has not single

A Blank Of F orty Years 8

A Chautauqua On. Y.) paper tells the
following story baTg9aT al noteajdng
About forty yearsiago young lady,
eighteen years of age, full of life and
beauty, and resident of this county,
from some unknown, or, at least, ungovern-
able cause, became suddenly insane. 90 For
some time she remained beneath the
roof of her parents, and received the uni
ted efforts Of her relatives and friends.
But to no avail. The mental faculties
were too surely broken. A short time af-
ter she became an inmate of our county
poor house at DeWitville, where she re-
mained until few days since, a curiosity
to strangers, and wholly lost to herself.
We remember, three years since, while on
a visit to the county buildings at that
place, noting the very strange appearance
of "CrazY Ann" There was something
peculiar about her arrangement, SO much
so, that we have often called to mind, in
cidents Of her conversation and peculiar
manners But few days since i"Crazy
Ann" resumed her proper cognomen, and
is again sane. What sleep Forty
years of blank existance, and now a
stranger to herself She resumes life
where she left it when young and beauti-
full, and companion of the gay and NTH
full. Now she is old, feeble and gray, in
the enjoyment only of the fact that she is
again rational, and busily engaged in max
ing her own acquaintance. H8a

Arrival of the Grand Piano

The grand piano made for the White
House by the celebrated Schumacher
Pianoforte Manufacturing Company, of
Philadelphia, arrived here yesterday
morning, and was placed in the Crimson
Room. The piano is of the full concert
grand, in magnificent rosewood case
with pearl mouldings, exquisitely finished;
white enamelled plate beautifully ,orna-
mented; keys of the purest ivory; makers
name inlaid with gold. The tone is rich
and powerful, with great depth and sweet
ness, and the instrument is worthy the
fame of the manufacturer. 1t has been
the custom to refurnish the White House
every four years, and it is alwaysa matter
of great competition between the leading
piano manufacturers of the country to
secure the favor of the occupants of the
mansion. The Messrs Chickering, of
Boston, were successful for many years,
but on the accession of President Lincoln
his wife made choice of Philadelphia
piano, which was also made by Messrs.
Schumacher & Co. This instrument is
eight years old, but very fine, and will be
removed to the wareooms of the firm in
Philadelphia. Our Quaker City friends
can congratulate themselves upon their
luck in being thus favored for now the
Il third Administration. Miss Nellie Grant
was delighted with the new. instrument
when she tried it yesterday, and General
Badeau, who is said to be a connoisseur
pronounced it Incompatible

spend hundred thousand and "toddle

that we may be the "most elegantly dress
ed lady at Saratoga" or 'the most beauti-
| full lady at Niagara " We are SO frail and
delicate that we must be cared for, and
protected, and. of course, we never marry
unless fortune is offered us.
Our beauty lifts us up and drags US
down. 1t lifts us up by securing wealthy
and influential husbandA-it drags us down
by this rule, s'the greater the beauty, the
greater the prize, the greater the snare"
We cannot protect ourselves, for various
reasons. First, we are weak. Secondly,
we know nothing but to please and be ad
mired. Thirdly, we treat all men alike
Fourthly, it degrades US to entertain the
slightest suspicion of evil. One of US
started from st. Louis alone, a few months
since; she was bewildered by different
trains, and inquired which she shouldtake
for Indianapolis; she was told, and enter
ed the car designated, when she found
herself locked into an empty car with him

heard by policeman and she was saved.

The Two French Queens of

BY JAMES PARTON.

Eighteen years ago the President of
the Republic of France betrayed the coun-
try which had trusted him, stole its hber-
ties in the night, laid robber hands upon
its treasury, dishonored its noblest citizens
by carting them to jail in prison vans,
murdered in cold blood several hundreds
of innocent menand women in the streets
of Paris, and transported hundreds more
to hot, unhealthy region of tropics This
was the Andersonville of usurpation. It
transcribed all that had ever been done
in that kline, looming to the extreme Of
dastardly meanness the extreme of auda-
.cious cruelty, and being totally devoid of
palliation or excuse, except that invented
by the head liar of the gang who pertetrat-
ed it, The man in whose name the deed
was done appears to have furnished moth

little courage was shown, being supplied

Half happy and half frightened.
