The Girls Of the Period.

The Boston Investigator says: We boast of
our system of education; we have female high
schools, female colleges, female medical
schools, and female heavens; our girls are
refined, learned and wise; they can sing,
dance, play pianos, paint, talk French and
Italian, and all the soft languages write poe
try, and love like Venuses. They are ready
to be courted at ten years, and can be taken
from school and married at fifteen, and di-
vorced at twenty. They make splendid shows
on bridal tours, can coquette and firt at the
watering places, and shine like angels at win
ter parties. But heaven be kind to the poor
wretch that marries in the fashionable circles.
What are they at washing floors? Oh! we
forgot-nobody has bare floors now; how vul-
gar it would be What are they at making
bread and boiling beef? Why, how thought
less we are, to be sure-they will board or
have servants. What are they at mending old
clothes? But, there we are again-the fash
ions change SO often that nobody has old
clothes but the rag-men and paper-makers
now.
What are they at washing babies faces and
pinning up their trousers? And here is our
intolerable stupidity once more-having chill
dren is left to the Irish What lady thinks of
having children about her now? or, if she is
SO unfortunate, don't she put them to wet
nurses to begin with, and boarding schools
afterward? We repeat, We have come to q
point where young men hesitate and grow old
before they can decide whether they can
marry and afterwards keep clear of bank
ruptcy and crime. What is the consequence?
There are more persons leading single
life. Are there more leading virtuous life
It is time for mothers to know that the ex-
travagance they encourage is destructive OF
the virtue of their children that all the foolish
expenditures are, instead of answering that
end, tending to destroy the institution of mar
riage altogether.

Platform Of the White People Of Louisiana

We, the white people of Louisiana, embra-
eng the Democratic party, the Conservative
party, the White Mans party, the Liberal
party, the Reform party, and all others op.
posed to the Kellogg usurpation, do solemnly
resolve and declare that the government now
existing in Louisiana originated in and has
been maintained by force and fraud in oppO-
aition to the will of large majority of the
voters Of the State, in opposition to the prin-
oiples of the Constitution of the United States
and in violation Of every principle Of justice
and liberty.
That the dominant faction of the Radical
party in this State has, by false and fraudulent
representations, infamed the passions and
preiudices Of the negroes, as race, against
the whites, and has thereby made it neces-
aary for the white people to unite and act to-
eether in self-defense, and for the preserva-
Ion of white civilization.
That the rights of all men, under the Con-
skitution and laws Of the land, must be re-
spected and preserved inviolate, irrespective
q race, color, or previous condition but we
deny that Congress can constltutionaliy enact
hvs to force the two races into social union
O. equality.
That the white people of Louisiana have
No desire to deprive the colored people of
any rights to which they are entitled. but We
ere convinced that reform is imperatively de-
nanded, and can he effected only by electing
% Office white men Of known capacity and IN
Segrity; and we believe that large numbers OF
eoiored citizens will vote with Us, to secure .
government which must be beneficial alike to
both races.
That we disclaim earnestly any intention
q carrying, or attempting to carry, the
approaching election by violence, and that
charges to this effect emanating from our
Radical enemies are without foundation. and
aEe falsely made for the purpose Of obtaining
Tie aid Of the military forces Of the United
States in order to overawe the people, Per.
Retuate the existing usurpation, and subvert
he true principles Of the Government ).
That v p. Kellogg Is mere usurper, and
- denod1ce him as such that his govern
ment is arbitrary, unjust and oppressive, and
mat It can maintain itself only through Fed
cfal Interference that the election and regis
ration laws under which this election is beng
conducted were intended to perpetuate the

Correspondence Of the Sacramento Record.l
We are gliding through the canon of the
Truckee River at night, nine out of ten OF
the passengers are doing, when suddenly the
door opens, and in with the cold comes the
queerest specimen of humanity I ever saw.
One side Of the slouched hat is pinned up,
and by the lamplight discloses a face that is
young and not unhandsome, pair of honest
blue eyes, and good forehead The beard is
unshorn, however, the hair unkempt, and
every ineament of the countenance betrAys
unmistakable verdancy. It requires no par
ticular knowledge of character to decide that
the fellow is q green Missourian, fresh from
the primitive precincts of Pike county. One
leg of the corduroy pants is stuffed into the
top Of an old cowhide boot. These, and the
wooden shirt, and the dilapidated vest and
coat, render his costume decidedly seedy. As
if totally oblivious of the situation and sur
roundings, he begins humming in low, mu-
steal voice

Immigration.
To the Editors Of the Dispatch:

TO the EdatOTS CJ inc DtSPotch'
Before the Legislature votes the public
money to any Of the various immigration
schemes, which are always as plentiful as
blackberries at this season of the year, ask
them to consider the followiu points:
1. Who are the most active promoters OF
plans for opening the State treasury under
the specious pretence Of advancing immigra-
ton? Are they not as q rule individuals
who, whether citizens or settlers, have some
cake to grlnd"I
2. Is it not fact that all the seaboard
States north of us are finding out that unless
immigration is of the right sort it is curse
rather than blessing? A correspondent of
the Albany Erentng Journal Indignantly
protests against " Keeping up Boards Of I'M
n.iqration at the public expense to add to
our already heavy load of pauper la6or:"
New York State would in fact be totally
unable to bear the burdens imposed By i'm
ported paupers were it not that the trade
and commerce of the whole Union is centred
there, making that State the richest OF all.
3. Are not Government Bureaus Of Emf
grafton viewed with hearty distrust in
Eurspe? Has not Joseph Arch denounced
them in England? Is it not the OPINION OF
a majority of those Of our settlers whose eX-
DeTieDCe entities lueI Nicno W "S'S III th"h
money expended in Stale agencies will be
wasted?
I believe that it will be found that Fir-
gini needs capital, not labor; and to obtain
capital we do not need State officials, but
rather to secure for those capitalists who
have already located here such returns as
may lead them to induce others to "go and
do likewise.' Yours, obedienily,
February 1G, 1874. A SETTLER.
