ST. AUGUSTINE Palmetto BRAID.-Pa;metto
leaves--paImetto braid-these terms, says tho
Hartford 1Tmes are more frequently met with
in newspaper letters, and paragraphs about
Florida than they used TO bo. The fact is ow-
ing to the increasing knowledge in Northern
markets, concerning the pretty hats and bou-
nets made at st. Augustine. The palmetto
braid has been used in that quaint old town
for Rone years in the fabrication of ladies' and
children's hats and bonnets. Beginning, we
think, with AIRS. 0ffvora and one or two Ia
dies who lost their worldly possessions in the
war, this business was only designed for o
small local affair, to reach the casual winter
visitors to the antique little cOquina- built
city, and furnish o Subsistence to tue makers,
Ornameuted with the pretty, coarse seeded
wild grasses of Fiorida-what the natives there
call grass-these hats are graceful and pretty;
aud they are winning recognition in regions
far from Sc; Augustine; An order from Bali-
more, for 5000 worth, lately surprised the
st. Augustine ladies; another order followed
from New Yerk; aud now comes $l5 900 or
der from Paris The good ladies living In the
Spanish looking houses on the little sandy
street where these chip and grass bats or
ginated, evidently builded better than they
knew.

BRIDGET."-In this country the name Bird
get has come to be almost synonymous with
servant girl" and we suppose it is fer this
reason that some women arc ashamed to bear
so glorious a name. The more shame for theml
The patron saint of the most Catholic country
in the world! The Virgin :. in whose honor
churches were built from the shores of the
Baltic to the Mediterranean Sea; from Cologne
to Seville" 1t is, of course, only to the living
God that churches and affairs are built, but they
are put under the protection and guardianship
of some saint, like the mercyseat in the old law,
between two cherubim. Although foreigner
to Ireland-we understand that there are no
less than eighteen parishes in Ireland called
Kildare, in honor of the "Cell of the Oak, +"
where st. Bridget first erected her altar. We
understand, too, that the RcbFSdes, which at
tracted DR.. johnson from London, are so called
from the glorious Irish Virgin, the Mary Of
Erin" as she was called in tho ages of faith,
before we were enlightened by the public
schools! The poor and the lowly of ireland, it
is true, have nnmed their children without
number after this glorious saint. Bat see what
she has done toward their protection. Find us
in the whole history of the world an equal
number of women forced to earn their daily
bread among strangers, thrown constantly in
temptation of MI kind, where so few have fall
on, as the Bridgets of Ireland. Although so
numerous, how many fallen women bear that
namef Less, perhaps, than any other name
they can wear the homelv garment, and live
on common fare the can bear the contumely
of the world, but they cannot stoop to dis
saint nothing to do with all this7 We have
heard of o few so aristoWatic al to be ashamed
of q name which, as we have said, became al
most Synonymous with working woman"
With such the saint has nothing to do. There
are more people,it must be remembered who
are ashamed to own the name of Jesus! 1t is
glorious nams, name without dishonor,
without reproach, and we are astonished that
any woman-especially any Irish woman
should feel otherwise than proud to bear it,

RuBIEs.--Is is not little remarkable,
and We might pbiioDophize for seme time
about it, that while the diamond 10 made

que charcoal, the ruby, the next in value
and beauty, is nearly made up of alumina,

phosed, by some hidden and miraculous
way, into the transparently clear, red
colored, and almost living gem! Imagina.
ton itself fails to fisd theory to account
can invent q theory to fit it. II is q some
what curious condolences that the ruby, as
we'll as the diamond and other precious
stones, are so often found associated with
gold; where they are, there gold is almost
sure to be present. Nature produces these
her riches, together, and it afterwards is
the province of art to keep them together,
and to exhibit them as one object. How
much remains to be ne'before this artis-
tic feat ia we'll performed for, az things
are, the beauty Of the stone is as often as
not spoiled in the cutting aud fitting! We
are incllncd to think that NO colored stone
should be cut at oil. Rubies, for instance,
always look richer by their being simply
polished or cut on cabGch0B, or tali0w-top-
ped. It 10 the marvellous depth aud purity
and intensity Of color, az seen in the ruby,
like colored stones, that make up the beau
ty and value Of them, and not, as in the

The War Office have presented to the
House of Commons o curious return of the
sum which has accrued from the imposi-
ton of fines from Drunkenness in the army
since the introduction Of that penalty in
July, 1869, and staten ent of the various
modes and amounts in which that sum has
been disposed of. In an army circular is
sued In 1870, it was announced by the Sec
rotary of state that the general fund which
had been formed since the previous year
from the fines Inflicted upon soldiers for
the crime of drunkenness should be appro-
priated to the purpose of granting gratu-
tiles to weli-conducted soldiers on discharge
from Ahe army. The scale of gratuities was
apportioned according to the soldiers rank
(private or corporal), his period of service
first or second), his good conduct badges,
and the lapse of time previous to his dis
charge since he was recorded as guilty of
drunkenness; the gratuity, however, not
exceeding Go, except insthe case of q SOL
dier who had been sober for ten consecu-
tive years of service. BY these arrange
ments, the sober men are rewarded for
their good conduct, not directly by the
State, but by their drunken comrades,
whose private vices become public benefits.
The penalty is Ingenious and mercifui, and
calculated, perhaps, to impress military
drunkard's imagination quite as forcibly
as q more severe infection. Tue figures
of the returns are somewhat eccentric. In
the year 1cOS ~ inc OrunkaFO6 PAID not
less than 9l3,262 las. Sd yet out of that
considerable sum only Egg 0s. lid, were
disbnrsed by way of rewards for sobriety

Criminal Statistics Of tho Ninth Census.

From tho report OF superintendent walker,
tho Now York World gets the statistics of crime
for 1870, and comments thereon as follows:
There were in prison in the united Ststes
on juno /, 1870, total Of 80 ,90l parsons, thus
distribut ed: t,.
Total prisoners SssJL
Natlvo whites.
Negroes. S!So
Total population .sSo 900 ~
Native white population iSS
Negro population. 4esOoos
Foreign born popuiation 1857 KID
This shows that assuming all In prison to
be crimiuals) there is at least one criminal in
every 1172 of our whole population. ono in
every 1744 Of our native white population, one
in every 637 of our foreign born population,
and one in every Cos of our negro popul ation.
As measure of absolute numbers these figures
arc worth nothing, but they give rs relative
quantities very accurately. This result 10
rather damaging to the theories of that class
of humanitafians who have been holding up
the Innocent, inoffensive darkey fer an example
and guide-post to the ferocous and uucoatFotb-
able foreigner. It shows that the pepitentia-
ries recruit among our colored brethren in
preference to all other classes in the commu-
nifty.
A comparison between the returns for Mas
sachusetts and the returns for Georgia gives
another set of results which must be immense
