We have already published statements
concerning late speech of the Emperor Of
Brazil, in which he has taken the initiative
upon the subject of the abolition of slavery.
1t may now be added that the Brazilian Go
vernment has presented to the Chambers a
bill for the emancipation of all slaves belong
ing to the crown. The bill provides also
that convict slaves are to become free after
seven years Imprisonment, their ownersrc-
ceiving indemnity from the treasury. The
whole scheme, VIC are told, meets with strong
opposition. The population of Brazil in
1856 was 7,677 800 Of which 100000

Tho Shakers at Hancock, near Pittsfeld,
in Massachusetts, have had an unusual SEN
sation in the elopoment Of their leading
business man, Ira Lawson, with one Of the
fairest of the demure Shakefesscs. The
clipping couple are about 35 years ofase,
and have been brought up in the community
from childhood Having shaken of their
allegiance to the rules of the commualty,
these devoted Shakers fastened to Albany,
where they were duly married. Of course
Brother Ira has rendered himself liable to
be disciplined by the society, but he has
rather the best of his brethren, as ne has 5
been allowed to keep the bank account OF
the family in his own name, and neither tie
law of the State nor che bank knows the
Shakers as body. .- -.

The BUENos AYREs PEsTLENcE-A
correspondent writes the London THINGS, TN
der date of June 1st:
I left Buenos Ayres on the 18th Of April,
and from the beginning Of the plague until
that date had sad experience of every phase
and detail of the calamity. I am, therefore,
enabled to speak with accuracy on the sub
ject.
The population IF Bucnos Ayres is about
(from various causes it is difficult to take q
census there) 100000. The germ Of diseases
was imported from Paraguay and Corrientes
early in January. Up to the end of March
the whole number Of deaths was 10000
The inhabitants who had the means removed
to the country districts, which, without ex-
ception were, and continue to be, free from
the disorder, and the accommodations in the
little towns of Flores, Belgrano, &c, were
comfortable and decent in every respect, and
| there was an abundance of every cfass OF
food, &c.
There is no mystery as 10 the cause OF this
fatal malady in acity populated as stated
above, and ontirBiy without tile most ordina-
ry sanitary arrangcments-no roads, no
drainage, almost no pure water, no baths,
and system of cesspools which probably
have no parallel in the history of civilization.
The climate is, perhaps, the finest in the
world, and its beauty lulled the people into
a carel less security, until the filth and the
crowds of the city were ripe and ready to re-
ccive and propagate the insidious disease
The Indians and natives were the chief suf-
fcrers. These pcople:live in 6lty and lnea-
gre way; hate soap and water, and do not
know what ventilation means. ii,
The malady is now gradually declining,
and doubtless will die during the cold months,
from June to October. Meantime the author
tiles arc taking active measures to make up
for their previous neglect, and the wants in
dicated above will soon be supplied.

If young women waste their time
in trivial amusements, in the prime
season for enjoyment, which is be-
tween the ages of sixteen and twen-
IS, they will hereafter regret bitterly
the loss, when they come to feel
themselves inferior in knowledge to
almost every one they converse with
and, above all, if they should ever
be mothers, when they feel their in
ability to direct and assist the pur-
suits of their childhood, they will
then find ignorance a severe morti-
! 1ication and a real evil. Let it ami
mate their industry, and let not q
modest opinion of their capaci tiles
be a Encouragement to their en-
deaEors after knowledge. A moder
ate understanding, With diligent and
well directed application, will go
much farther than a more ieTely
genius, if ATTENDED with that i'm
patience and inattention which too
often attend quick parts. 1t is not
for want Of capacity that so many
women are such triding and insipld
companions, so Unqualified for the
friendship and conversation of SEN
sible man, for the task of instructing
or governing a family; it is often the
neglect of exercising the talents
they really have, and from emitting
TO cultivate a taste for intellectual
improvement. By this neglect, they
lose the sineerest ofpleasures, which
would remain when almost every
other forsook them, Of which neither
fortune nor age could deprive them,
and which would be a comfort and
resource in almost every possible
situation in life.

The Lifstima of a Norel.

The London correspondent Of the
Newark advertiser writes:
It is probably rather under thar
over the mark to say that the new
English novels of each month, on an
average throughout the year, would
I'LL shelf two yards long, and that
the novels Of the last ten years would
if piled one on top Of the other, form
column far above st. PauTs Cross.
The spirit and energy Of readers
would soon be crushed under this
enormous mass were it not for a Sc
we're and merciful literary law which
saves their brains from a fatal con-
cussion of books, just as q natural
law saves the chalets of a Swiss vii
lage from the glacier which never
ceases to advance toward it. For
each novel born novel dies; a new
one rises into fame, an old runs into
oblivion. livery well-written novel
were considered standard literature,
standard literature would soon be-
come 80 intolerable O burden that
men would be driven to do without
it altogether. Happily time inter
poses in our favor with q statute Of
limitations.
To know something of the novel
of the month, or at most Of the year,
is all that is necessary, and the rule
Of this reading is that, with q very
exceptions, the fact OF a book hav-
ing passed the age of twelve months
Is sufficient to Danish it from polite
society. He who quotes the novel
of last year is q pedant; he who
quotes the novel of the year before
has the dry and musty mind Of an
antiquary. Even the professed
novel-reader lives in the present, and
is as u1mindful of what once deligh-
ted him as a bee Of last years flow
ers; while it is merely expected of
ordinary folks that they should besuf-
foiently acquainted with dozen or
two of the freshest and most fashion
able of the debutants of the ibgaries
and advertising sheets to be able to
season the small talk of society with
the scandals which can generally
find its nutriment in their pages.
