Courtesy to Women.
The ssSlrday Review says:

"Ihdt women do not receive
the same amount of attention
in England as they do in the
United States, is true. There
it is a positive cultus, exagger-
ated as cults generally are by
fashion, superstition, or caprice.
It's exaggeration is fatal to its
beauty. When male courtesy
ceases to provoke gratitude or
reciprocity, it ceases to perform
its intended functions. When
| attentions are extorted as a
right, their favor and spirit are
gone. When two gaunt wo-
men take up a position OF
blockade by the chairs of two
inoffensive men, and one
, drawls out, II wonder how
|. long we're to be kept standing,
and the other drawls in reply"
| II don't know what's become
of mems gallantry," the imme-
: diate capitulation of the be-
r sieger is a trioute to female
! pertinacity. not to sentimental
I tenderness. Yet it was from O

There is nothing purer than
honesty; nothing sweeter than
charity; nothing warmer than
love; nothing brighter than
virtue, and nothing more stead
fast than faith.

Thoughts for Takers.

There are proper times for
talking, as well as themes for
it. Men should take care not
to talk much when their mouths
are full, OF when their heads
are empty. In the former case,
they nauseate in the latter
one they bore. Unless a man
has something sensible to say,
he certainly had better be con-
tented without saying it. A
good listener is as hard to find
as a good talker, and yet tho
knack of listening is easy of
attainment. IF one only can
contrive to look as though one
listens, one may often get the
credit of doing so.
| When a company Of takers
are laundering away, their
thunder ought to be attended
by a brilliant flash of silence on
the part of some good listeners.
Conversation, when all talk is
noise, is not conversation.
When ladies talk together, their
, tongues move all at once, and
! no one ever stops to listen.
} This is why, among them
3 selves, ladies talk such utter
0 nonsense. But ladies can talk
}. sense when they have men of
e sense to talk 10, for then they
P take the trouble to say some
thing worth answering. Ii
u every one keeps talking, no
i body is, therefore any wiser for
q their saying it.
Remember, when you talk,
: that, very often listening pleas
es more than talking. BY lis
70 tening to q man, you pay him
20 a great compliment, for you
de,icately indicate that what
he he says is worth your hearing
n Moreover, though, by listening
ae you may hear Unpleasant
IT. things, the occupation offer
ch saves you from the chance o
en- saying them. In short, thougl
ey it may seem anomalous TO sa,
ry it, one of the greatest charm
as of talking is to hold one
Ell tongue well. The man wh
of holds his tongue in course G
DIV conversation will often Civ
lu- more pleasure than the ma
IN who merely uses it.

What a charming picture is
presented to the aGmiring eye
ofthe virtuous and philanthropy
ic, the lover of the beautiful and
the good! There is the hus-
band and father In the prime of
life, unbending his mind from
the toll and pursuit of business,
reading some favorite volume
to the wife of his bosom, or
playing with the delightful
prattler on his knee. While
the mother, with a countenance
radiant with smiles, plies the
needle for the accommodation
and wants of her household. as
she listens, and perhaps rocks
the cradle with her busy foot,
! or softly administers a gentle
word of rebuke when the little
ones become too noisy.

and useful services, whenever
the power and opportunity ec-
cur, love would be a hollow
pretence. Yet what noble
mind would not be offended If
he were thought to value the
services for the sake of the

SPRING FAsHIoNs.-New Orleans enjoys the
reputation of possessing taste in the way female
dress In lecture delivered q few evenings ago by DR.
Miburn in Odd Fellows Hall, what he in Paris
he said he might readily take city for part that
celebrated metropolis such the beauty ladies'
and moro especially the elegant and recherche style
which they dressed. he had seen London, New York
Vienna-but there was that je sais qao-a certain
something that distinguished ladies' hey
had elsewhere. Had the Doctor besides
ding grand Boulevard Canal assembled 20 &c. over
Zimmerman's, he would penetrate the cause and find
msterial for rousing lecture, to be styled What
Blind Man Saw in New Orleans" This is the famed
temple of fashion, which Mrs. Doherty pre-
sides with taste exquisite that all our fashionabIes
resort to 1t for inspiration Hence issue those magnf.
cent toilets that show reapendenty at opera
the drawing room and the promenade. Mrs. D. has
at the present unsurpassed stock of
able goods, comprising the finest fabrics and ready
made suits, which have been selected made mp un
der her personal supervision. The bridal trousseau
would change the heart Of the most
lor. Indeed the race would become extinct. Thus ad-
ding another to the many obligations which this com.
munity owe to Mrs Dougherty.

CHURCHES FOR THE MAssEs.-Protes-
tants are greatly at a loss how to catch the
ears of the Indifferent millions who never
attend preaching. The Rev. c. G. Trues-
dell, in an article published in the Arl Re-
cie,o for March, gives his views thus:
Recently, both in this country and in
Europe, the question has been agitated,
Chow can we reach the masses with the
Gospel How attract the poor to the place
OF worship I" A great deal of sentimental
twaddle has been INDUCED in in reference
to this knotty question. There is nothing
easier or palmer to my mind. If you want
to attract the masses to church-build
churches for the masses; not poor churches
but large, convenient, and beautiful, and
then invite them, and make them welcome
when they come, and if a little of the Mas
ter's plan should be adopted, viz "Go af-
ter them and nrge them to come in" it
would be found wonderfully remuueratiye,
Some tell us that the poor will not come
to fine churches because their manners and
clothes contrast unfavorably with others,
and they will not go to plain buildings and
free services appointed especially for them,
because it is an acknowledgment Of their
poverty. In answer to this, it is enough to
inquire, who furnish the immense congre-
cations that fill all day long, and freauent-
ly for many working days together as we'll
as Sundays, those magnificent and costly
cathedrals to be found now in almost every
city of any Importance, which, for beauty
and expense, are an honor to the people
who provide them, and shame and re-
proach to those who profess to have q bet
ter faith. The difference is simply in this:
Romanism comtempIates the poor, and she
reaches them because she intends to and tries
to. Romanism builds her immense and
elegant cathedrals for the poor, and she at
tracts and holds them it, mainly. There
is no monopoly of choice pews in Roman
and jewelry and equipage, to insult the
time and place of worship, and to humili-
ate and shame the poor-there is no suob-
ocracy in Romanism, that smells of petro-
leum or shoddy-hence all are EQUALS as
members of one family in their fathers
house, and they attend the services because
they love the place and its associations.
