more females this coast Of the situations which
await them; but many girls who the letter have in

Wedding Toilets in l77O.

Brides and bridegrooms of 1871 NAV
be amused by the description OF the
toilet OF a couple on their wedding day
one hundred years ago. To begin with
the lady, her locks were strained upward
In an immense cushion, that sat like an
incubus upon her head, and plastered
over with pOmatum, and then sprinkled
over with white powder. The height of
tins tower was somewhat over n foot.
One single white rosebud lay on its top,
like an eagle on hay stack. Over her
neck and on her bosom was folded a lace
handkerchief, fastened in front with a
bosom-pin, rather larger than copper
cent, containing her grandfrther's nina.
t'lre, set in virgin gold. She was braced
up In a satin dress, the sleeves as tight
as the natural skin on her arm, with a
waist formed by bodice, worn outside,
whence the skirt flowed off and was
fastened at the top by an ample loop.
Shoes OF white kid, with peaked toes,
and heels OF two or three inches eleva.
ton, inclosed her feet and glittered with
spangles as her little pedal members
peeped curiously out. Now for the
swain. His hair WIS sleeked back and
plentifully behoured, while his queue
projected like the handle to O skillet.
His coat was sky blue silk lined with
yellow, his long vest of satin embroider-
ed with gold lace, his breeches OF the
same material, and tied at the knee with
pink ribbons. White silk stockings and
pumps with laces and ties of the same
hue completed the habiliments Of his
neither limbs. Lace ruffles, clustered
around the wrist, and portensious frill
worked in correspondence, and bearing
the miniature OF his beloved, finished his
truly genteel appearance.

Good Advice.

STURGEON sententiously expresses q
number of thoughts worth remembering,
in the following appropriate sentences,
which he publishes as "advice gratis y
When you see man with great deal
of religion displayed in his shop window,
you may depend upon it he keeps very
small stock of it within.
Do not choose your friend by his
looks handsome shoes often pinch the
feet.
By no means put yourself in another
persons power if you put your thumb
between two grinders, they are very apt
to bite.
Drink nothing without seeing it sign
nothing without reading it; and make
sure that it means no more than it says.
Don't go to law unless you have moth
ing to lose; lawyers houses are built on
fools heads.
Put no dependence on the label Of q
bag, and count the money after your
own kin.
In any business never wade in the wa.
ter where you cannot see the bottom.
Keep clear Of man who does not val
ue his own character.

The Coal Trade In New York.

It is difficult to write upon the coal
question at present with any degree of
certainty, as what may seem probable
to-day is altogether contradicted by the
events of the morrow. There have been
many rumors prevailing here during the
past few days as to resumption, some
parties fixing it as early as next week,
while Others put it off until the first
of May; but upon a thorough canvass OF
the trade, We have come to the conclu-
sion that there does not yet appear a
much better prospect OF solution OF
our troubles than there was three weeks
ago. Those who predict otherwise, we
think, have but their wishes to base the
idea upon, as they lack any degree OF
certainty. There may be some regions
or districts that will resume, and some
few collieries have started, but the gen.
eral question at issue has not been set
tied, and we think it will be some time
before it is. The few that are working,
have been magnifed by the ideas ofsome
dealers, until We might imagine the whole
country was working. Quite demand
has existed here for coal, and all the
yards appear to want more or less, as
they do not buy in any quantity, but are
constantly in the market for supplies
this has had the tendency to keep prices
more steady than they would have been,
had the dealers made large purchases,
and then want nothing for two or three
weeks at time. There was lull in the
market last week, but We have got brave
ly over it now for time again. Rates
are stiffer, and in some instances have
advanced. The Legislature have done
nothing, and we fancy they could do
nothing, but make recommendation,
which the parties at issue could act upon
or not, Just as they might see fit; thus
the only object that has been gained by
the investigation, has been the delay and
consumption OF the stocks Of coal, with
no production, and the way thus paved
to good market for the balance of the
year. Anthracite coal, by the cargo, at
New York, may be quoted at about 50. 25
for broken and egg $40 for stove $3.50
for chestnut; with good demand for
all sizes, the buyers taking any quality.
Retail-A good business is doing at
prices ranging from $3.50 to S11 for
stove coal, and about 81 per ton off these
rates for broken, egg, and chestnut.
Retailers have small stocks, and are buy
ing but sparingly. Foreign gas and
camel coal in good demand range from
SO to SIC, as to quality. Retail, S1S to
S24.-Coal Journal.

A Story Of Daniel Webster,

Among the many stories lold of Dan.
iel Webster, the following is illustrative
of his carelessness in money matters. A
young New Englander, printer by
trade, attempted to seek his fortune in
South America, and for this purpose
embarked with printing press and
types for Buenos Ayres. He had not
taken the precaution to effect any insu-
rance. nor to arrange for the acceptance
of any home draft in case Of necessity.
The vessel was wrecked on the passage
aud his property lost. He was on shore
without any considerable funds, and his
means were soon exhausted. There was
no English printing office in which he
could find employment, and he had no
acquaintance with the language of the
country or with any resident there. BE
soon formed slight acquaintance with
a man speaking English, who suggested
to him the drawing for his immediate re-
lief upon some friend in New York or
Boston. He honestly told his adviser
that he had no authority for so doing.
The suggestion was then made that some
body might be willing to accept for the
honor OF the drawer-and If he would
make draft for 500 upon some person
whose name might be known at Buenos
Ayres, there might be possibility, with
his aid, OF getting the money.
Thinking it almost case of life and
death, and hoping to be in funds from
his earnings before the draft could be
sent to this country and be returned pro-
tested, as he expected, in the ordinary
and then the only course Of transmission
by sailing vessels, the young man gladly
availed himself of the suggestion. The
question then was, what name he should
propose as the one upon whom to draw.
He named by turns several "sohd men
Of Boston, not one seemed to be known
or to meet with favor. He happened to
think of Daniel Webster, whom he knew
only by his worldwide reputation. The
broker to whom the negotiation was pro-
posed, at once caught at the name, and
was satisfied with it. The draft was ac-
cordingly made, and the money raised
at the customary discount.
The young man remained abroad for
a year or two, and was tolerable success
ful. Not a word was heard of any pro-
tested draft, and on his return to Boston
he called with the money 20 repay Mr..
Webster, and to make the best apology
he could for the liberty he had taken.
To his surprise, Mr.. Webster said that he
knew nothing about the matter. On his
insisting that the draft must have been
accepted and paid, Mr.. Webster so far
Welded to his wishes as to suggest his
calling again, and that in the meantime
he would set his clerk to making some
examination. 1t turned out on second
call, that the draft had been found can
celled, and, as the clerk said, was dis
covered among many other loose papers
in one of the office desks. Mr.. Webster
was then paid the hundred dollars, but
declined any remuneration which was
urged upon bin in the way OF interest,
on his strictly accommodation loan.
In other matters than that of money,
Mr.. Webster's memory was very good,
and, indeed, quite tenacious. A recol-
lection OF minute incidents, as well as
OF names and faces, was characteristic OF
b;n,
