The following is from the Pacific Med
;cal and Surgical Journal: " 1t is worthy
of note that, while malignant hatred
of Chinese, individually, is fomented
under cover of hostility to their imml-
grafton, our females have fallen IN love
with Chinese costumes and customs; IN
some respects, and accepted them as
models. The pictures Of Chinese la
dies, to which one has been accustomed
for many years, bear close resemb-
lance to the American belle of the
present day. The repulsive hump, the
crippled feet and the mincing gait OF
our women, if they do not fortify the
Darwinian theory of the origin of the
species from monkeys, at least give the
appearance Of retrograding monkey
ward The dress, uncouth and deform-
ing as it is, would not of itself deserve
notice; but the high heels, crippling
the feet and distorting the limbs, are
an outrage on grace, on anatomy, en-
titling the authors, could they be de-
tected, to criminal responsibility. A
convention of corn doctors, in the in
terest of their trade, could not devise a
better scheme for good times. Women
whose pedals are soliditied may escape
with corns, of which we hope and pray
they may have full and tender crop.
But that whole generation of little
girls should have their toes jammed
into the points of their boots, to do the
work of heels, and that their legs
should be thrown out of the natural
balance and the plant bones bent into
semi-circles, is sacrifice to fashion
which would disgrace a nation Of Hot
tentots. Should the wicked custom
hold few years, there will not be a
decent foot or an aesthetic leg in our fe-
male population, except among washer
women and the like. And all this is a
trife compared with the mischief done
to the pelvis, spine and chest by the
constrained attitude which the abnor-
NAL elevation of the heel must of ne
cessity induce. Fashion is, at best, a
cruel tyrant; but the whole history of
her capricious rule does not exhibit a
grosser violation of natural laws and a
more objectionable assault on the
beauty and health of woman than the
invention of high-heeled boots.'

q The proposition has not come,
then p he said.
Estella's head dropped lower.
II fancied you were engaged to this
young Ernest"
Estella sobbed again.
"I care nothing for Ernest, nor he for
me. We are mere acquaintance"
Harry caught her hand.
''Is this girlish evasion ?" he asked
almost sternly, g or the truth p
Harry Bolton looked into the tear
flushed face, and took the other little
hand.
Estella," he said, "do you guess
why was leaving America ?''
She shook her head.
"Because could not see the girl [
love married to another. Am too old
to love, Estella ?"
80, no."
"Too old to be loved2"
"Why, you are not old, at all"
Estella, can you love me ~
She made no reply. Harrvfdnaw her
closer to him and repeated the ques-
ton; then the answer came in the low
est, faintest whisper,
81 love you better than my life; it
would kill me to part with you."
Harry Bolton won his treasure.
A week after he sailed to Europe; but
not alone. 1t was his wedding trip,
and Estella, his young and lovely bride,
was with him.

Foreign Items.

PRESIDENT ThlerS has but an 1mper-
feet knowledge of the English language.
He employs two clerks who translate,
every morning, to him the most impor-
tant articles from the English, German
and italian press.
INToxIcAT1oN is punished in Russia in
an original manner. The guilty parties
have to do one days street-sweeping to
expiate the offense. Frequently no.
blemen are thus seen, broom in HAND,
in the streets of st. Petersburg and
Moscow.
A MOVEMENT is now on foot among the
leading theatrical managers OF Ger
many to induce Charlotte Cushman,
Edwin Booth and other theatrical stars
of the United States to visit Germany
and give performances at the promi-
nent theaters of that country.
THE Column of the Place Vendome,
in Paris, pulled down by the commun-
lists, is to be restored, and the expense,
it is said, will not be more than sixty
thousand dollars. The destruction of
the monument was not so complete as
was supposed. 1t seems that of two
hundred and seventyfou bronze plates
which covered the trunk of the column,
ten at the most require slight repairs.
The small statue of Victory which Me-
poleon held in his hand, few bars of
the balustrade and some pieces of the
capital have disappeared. But this is
all, and even the old stone work at least
a third can be used over again. M. Gar
nier pleads strongly for the replacing OF
the statue of Napoleon on the top of
the column. Without this, he says, the
whole monuments ridiculous, and could
only be compared to the column of Ira
ian. at Rome, with the statue of st. Peter
on it's summit.
A FAIRY land on the roof of a royal
palace. is the last creation of the young
and enterprising King of Bavaria, who,
besides being an enthusiastic musician,
seems to have rare taste for the beau
tiful in nature. He has recently graft
fed this desire by the creation of a
garden, which is described as miracle
of beauty, on the roof of his palace.
In the cold north one wanders among
splendid palms. Luxurious vines send
their tendrils of rich green trailing
around the framework that supports
the immense glass roof and ingeniously
conceals it from the eye. Through the
rich, green foliage is seen the brilliant
surface of lake, on which float swans
and various aquatic birds among the
broad-leaved and rankly- growing water
plants. There lies little boat, into
which you may step and rock on the
clear, limpid surface of the flood, and
see fishes in the depths, and put your
hand into it and convince yourself that
it is cool, sparkling water, and not a
mere illusion. In astonishment you
wander farther, and perceive in the
distance broad, blue sea, and beyond
it mountains whose snowy peaks, OF
greater nights than the German Alps,
rise into the deep blue sky from the
base of the waters. All near you is so
real that you would not be surprised to
see steamer plowing the waves. This
time, however, you are fairly cheated ;
for the view owes its existence to the
ingenuity of the machinist and the
magic art of the painter.

Americans and American Fashions in
London.

Americans are at a premium every
where abroad just now (ssys magazine
critic), in London more than anywhere
else American soda-water, American
tramways, hotels "on the American
principle" American wares, and wares
recommend to American purchasers, are
advertised on all sides; on the Fourth of
July grand American tete' was held
at Cremorne Gardens, with a special
illumination, and the announcement
that "all the Americans in London will
present; in society, American girls are
decidedly " the fashion," There is ma
terial in this for very serious article to
be addressed to my country-folk, but
this is not my present intention. What
ever there is to be said on the subject,
their beauty and charms are securing
them triumph which they are not
called upon to forego. Yet, like all tri-
umphs, it is over enemies. The univer-
sal sentiment in London society regard
ing stranger is the memorable one
recorded by Punch during some agrarian
or mining troubles in the Midland
counties: "There's a stranger; 'eave
'arf brick at him" People who lack
the charity which begins at home, whose
whole social existence is struggle to
maintain his or her own place against all
comers, be they nephews, cousins, nieces,
brothers, or sisters, cannot abound In
any larger charity. The brder of the
day is selfshness, not in it's most refined, !
but in its cOarSest forms. 4rf

The Past.
By JOHN G. WHITTIER.

Sees not the spectre of misspent time?
a And, through the shade
Of funeral cypress, planted thick behind
Hears no reproachful whisper on the wind
From his loved dead? -.
Who bears no trace of passion s evil force2
Whoshu thy sting, 0 terrible remorse?
e-s& Wh0.does not cast
On the thronged pages of his memory's book,
At times a sad and half-reluctant look.
Regretful of the past?
Alas! the evil which we fain would shun,
We do, and leave the wished for good undone;
s-4 Our strength to-day
Is but to-morrow's weakness prone to fall;
Poor, blind, improbable servants all
Are we always. ~ .~.- ~ya~--es 80
Yet who, thus looking backward o'er his. years
Feels not his eyelids wetwith grateful tears 1--'
IF he hath been
Permitted. weak and sinful as ne was.
To cheer and aid in some ennobling cause
His fellow-man? re Fsa
If he hath hidden the outcast or let in
ray of sunshine to the cell of sim j i'f5
If he hath lent
Strength to the weak, and, in an hour of need.
Over the suffering. mindless of his creed
Or home hath bent-
He has not lived in vain. And while he gives

With thankful heart .-.
He gazes backward. and with hope before. 8

A Valuable Invention.

The I~on Age has an account of new
instru ment for indicating the velocity
Of flowing liquids and for measuring
the speed Of ships, called the rhysime-
ter, which has been invented in Eng
land. The capacity to, measure the
speed of ships is highly important ap-
plication of the Instrument. The
apparatus heretofore used lin connec-
ton with the halfminute glass; for that
purpose, the well. known" log" attached
to the log-line and dropped over the
stern of the vessel, is very inaccurate
method of measurement, as heavy sea
sometimes throws it after the ship,
while head sea may carry it in the op-
posite direction. The glass also meas
ures the halfminute with difficulty in
dry and damp weather and the line is
liable to change its length. Even the
best substitutes for the log are said to
be not always reliable. By the new in
vention the indicator may be in the
captains cabin 1t is said to resemble
in size and appearance a barometer. In
it column of mercury indicates con-
tinually the speed of the ship. The
full effect of the velocity is impaired to
the mercury without any applicable
loss by friction or otherwise, SO that the
indicators must always be absolutely
Correct. The instrument may be made
self-registeripg, showing on a dial the
total number Of knots. the ship has run,
and marking on a'sheet of paper the
precise speed attained at all periods OF
the voyage. The practical value OF
such an invention is obvious.

Farewell to paper. pen and ink;
I drop the weary quill,
To pass a week without drink
At Aganippe's rill.
NY Muse-if Robinson should call.
Or Jones or Smith or Brown
Be kind enough to tell them all.
The bard is out of town.
My Muse, I leave my second floor,
In confidence to you.
And paste a paper on the door
With just word or two.
So people trotting up the stairs.
And people trotting down,
May read notice which declares
The bard is out of town.
Then let my printers devil knock.
And ring the rusty bell;
And let my tailor try the lock.
That guards my lonely cell:
Go, printer, let some other play
The cynic or the clown,
60. Snip, return some other day !
The bard is out of town.
It pains me to desert my Muse,
And leave her here alone.
Twill vex her very much to lose
A genius like my own.
She rarely lets me have my way
But let her smile or frown,
For just a week, beg to say.
The bard is out of town.

NATIONAL THANKSGIVING.

WASHINGTON, D. c., October 2S, 1871. ! e e

PROCLAMATION.
A bounteous season has again enabled the
husbandmen to garner the fruit of success
full toll. Industry has been generally we'll
rewarded. We are at peace with all nations !;
tranquility with few exceptions prevails at.
home. Within the past year we have in the
main been free from ills which elsewhere
have affected our kind. If some Of us have
had calamities, there should be occasion for
sympathy with the sufferers, resignation on
their part to the will of the Most High, and
rejoicing by the many who. have been more
favored. Therefore recommend that Thurs
day, the SOth day of Novem ber next, the
people meet in their respective places of
worship, there to make the usual acknowl-
edgements to Almighty God for the blessings
He has conferred upon them, in their merci-
full exemption from evils, and invoke His
protection and kindness for their less fortu-
nate brethren whom, in His wisdom, he has
deemed it best to chastise. In witness
whereof, l have hereunto set my hand and
caused the seal of State to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this twen-
ty-eighth day of October, in the year of our
Lord, one thousand eight hundred and sew
enty-one, and of the Independence of the
United States the ninety-sixth.

TEE STRAsBURG CLOCK This ingeni-
GUS piece of theological mechanism is in
excellent condition, and attracts as
much attention as ever. At mid day
molly crowd of some two hundred peo-
pie fills that transept of the cathedral
which contains this curious work, the
assemblage including peasants in quaint
costumes; priests, schoolboys. and a.
great proportion of English and Ameri-
can tourists. At II o'clock the usual
performance begins by procession OF
the twelve Apostles marching before
Christ, who raises has hands, bestowing
blessing on each Apostle as he passes
by. At the same time'a skeleton in the
lower compartment strikes the hour
with human bone on metallic disc.
The cock on the summit of the clock
rufies his feathers, stretches out his
neck and gives good, sonorous crow,
repeating his efforts three separate
times. The noon display is thus ter
minated, but many of the spectators
leave with an evident expression OF dis.
appointment, as if they had expected
to see the whole front OF the clock In
motion, and display Of fireworks for
finale.
