bred and well-mannered, in short, is to
keep down the ego upon every occasion;
to control every expression of strong
feeling; to be of noiseless bearing and
gentle speech; to abstain from all that
may hurt the feelings or prejudices OF
others; to make small sacrifices without
seeming to make them in word, to re-
member that in society one lives for
others and not for oneself. f.,r
But politeness is not robe Of state,
to be worn only on occasions of cere-
mony. In no place do the laws of eti-
quette bear more gratifying results than
in the home circle, where, stripped of
their mere formality, tempered with love,
and fostered by all kindly impulses, they
improve the character and bear their
choicest fruits. A true gentlewoman will
show as much courtesy, and observe all
the little duties of politeness as unfail- :
ingly, toward her parents, husband and
family, as toward the greatest strangers.
A true gentleman will never forget that
if he is bound to exercise courtesy and
kindness in his intercourse with the
world, he is doubly bound to do so in bis
intercourse with those who depend upon
him for advice, protection and example" "

Etiauette--1he Laws of Good Society.

81 An entertaining Anonyma of England
who calls herself the Countess of 80 =,
has Just issued history and manual OF
etiquette, called, with impressive lacon-
ism, GOOD Society," Routledge has
strained himself to put forth the work
with all the luxuries of print and binding

of its proverbs has become already cele-
brated--that you shouldn't sing Rake

Prince of Timbuctoo or Haytien Am
bassador in the company. The Countess
Of Asterisks begins with an obliging his.
tory Of Etiquette. We extract the pas
sage which tells us how William the Con.
querer made love to his Queen:
"That the code of etiquette between
lord and lady, squire and dame, was not
very refined may readily be conceived.
Take, for example, the strange, barbaric
wooing, and the still stranger winning, Of
the beautiful and graceful Matilda OF
Flanders by William the Conqueror.
The lady, we are told, was at first disin-
clined to entertain him as lover. She
preferred another. but this noble suitor
would take no refusal. He resolved to
win the lady. Having so resolved, how
ever, what course did he pursue2 Did
he compass her with sweet observ-
ancesT Did he hstter, persuade, en-
treat? Nothing of the kind. The old
chronicler who hands the story down to
us, relates that Duke William, infuriated
by the lady's refusal, coupled as it was
with an allusion to his illegitimste birth,
made his wsy into her fathers palace,
seized the fair Matilda by her long
tresses, dragged her by these gentle
means about the chamber, struck her
repeatedly, aud ended by finging her
upon the floor at his feet
"And this vigorous manner of wooing,
strange to say, produced the desired
effect. Matilda accepted him at once;
and, on being questioned by her father
as to her sudden change of opinion, said
pleasantly: 81 did not know the Duke
so well then as do now, for he must be
o man of great courage and high daring
who could venture to come and beat me
in my fathers own palace.

by great outward freedom. Kisses, not
upon the cheek but on the lips, we're or

abetb, q young uncrowned girl, was sur

Lord High Admiral, the wooing consisted
principally of hiding, pursuing, scream

A letter from Salt Lake shows how
Brigham Young manages to possess him
self of so much of the choice land of the
Territory: Some Of the best land in the
Cache Valley is known as the Church
Farm, and Brigham was anxious to own
it, although he had already, by various
devices, pre-empted hundred times as
much land as the law allows. Accord :
ingly, he caused q tract five miles long
and four miles wide to be fenced in, and
secured the services of four " brethren,
who respectively put up shanties on four
sections; in these they resided the
required time, when the shanties were
taken by four other men TO other sec
tious, etc. They thea conveyed their
titles to Brigham Young and received
their wages.

SEAsoNABLE HINT-The work of
Spring cleaning will soon commence,
and withdrawing pals and brushes
will be at premium. Every neat and
careful housewife will soon be opera
ting to put things to rights, and in
identifying her premises. To those in
terested in this matter we would say
that very superior whitewash paint
can be made by taking two quarts of
skinned milk, eight ounces of freshly
slaked lime, six ounces of linseed oil,
two ounces of white burgundy pitch,
and three pounds Of Spanish white.
The lime must be Stacked in water an d
'exposed to the air mixed in about one
fourth the milk. The oil lin which the
pitch has been previously dissolved)
must be added little at time. Then
add the rest of the milk, and afterwards
the Spanish white. Color it to suit (if
you do not prefer white paint with
Spanish brown to make red pink !;
with finely pulverized clay, to make a
stone color with yellow ochre or
chrome to make yellow color, and so
on.

The long expected order re- assigning
the commanders of military depart
ments is out. The most significant
changes are the transfer of Gen. Geo.
Ell. Thomas to the Pacific coast, and OF
Gen. Halleck, thence, to the Division
of the South. 1t is understood, as the
meaning of this, that Gen. Halleck
must either give up bushes or give up
the army, and the expectation is that
he will stick to his business, His res
ignation is therefore thought likely to
follow the reception of this order, and
the present arrangement for the South
is consequently regarded as temporary.
Meanwhile the new General of the
Army pays the highest compliment he
can to the new Lieutenant General by
giving his own late place to him. Gen.
Towards appointment to the immedi-
ate command in Louisiana has elements
of fitness in the large number of blacks
there, the troubles that have arisen
from their conflicts with the whites,
and the undoubted influence of the
late head of the Freedmen's Bureau
over them.

Irregular spring opening" of the new
fashions week or two ago which, of
course, created the regular excitement
among the fairer and better part of Gre
alton. The bonnets-it is stated upon
high authority to be very small,
without crowns, and some styles are
high in front. In fact, the present
ityle is only new and revised edition
Of the fashion. Bonnets are to be elab-
,rately trimmed, to correspond with
the present style Of costume, trimmed
with laces and flowers ribbon is spar
ingly used. Roses in all colors and
shades, from the richest to the most
delicate tints, will be more in vogue
than any other flowers. Some of the
flowers are very large, one covering the
entire top of the bonnet, from which
falls vine of half-opened roses and
buds, with green leaves. not at the
sides, as last season, but straight down.
Lace Is much used in sashes or wells,
falling at the back.
1t will be gratifying to the ladies, as
well (perhaps) as to husbands and faith
ers, to know that although the size of
the bonnet for this season is not enlar-
ged, the cost is increased. A new style
is proposed that the bonnet shall be a
narrow ribbon tied around the head.
and profusely and tastefully decorated
with flowers, iewelry and lace. 1t will
not differ materially from the styles re-
ceived from Europe.

Snow EYES. Ellis, in speaking OF
the Esquimaux, says Their snow
eyes, as they very properly call them,
are proof of their sagacity. These
are little pieces of wood, bone, or ivory
formed to cover the eyes, and tied on
behind the head They have two sits
of the exact length of the eyes from
snow-bhndness, very dangerous and
powerful malady, caused by the action
of the light reflected from the snow.
The use of these eyes considerably
strengthens the sight, and the Esqui
maux are SO accustomed to them, thai
when they have mind to view distant
objects, they commonly use them in
stead of spy-glasses.
