4 DISGUSTING FASHION.

We copy the following from the
Henderson tKy.) Reporter. How a
fashion so disgusting and indecent in
appearance should ever become pOpu-
lar surpasses our understanding. IL
even has Judgement in Morristown.
The Oemarks Of the reaorter are we'll
timed, sound aud sensible:
+" \ lady OF Hend rson remarked la
our presence that she considered the
fashion which some men have adopted,
aud some ltdies permit, reversing the
:" me-hOnOred " custom of escOTting
ladies, a disgusting innovation. For
merly a gentleman offered lady his
arm aud she took it gracefully, and
thus linked they walked anywhere
without eliciting comment or remark
10 the discredit of the latter. Now,
we occasionally see the aim Of the es-
cOrt thrust through that Of the lady,
and his hand clasping her wrist. The
lady to whom we have reference above,
denounced the new custom, aud her
husband (whO has four daughters) said
IL a man were 10 undertake such
thing with one Of his daughters, and
she did not resent it as an insult, lie
would do so at once. Our opinion was
asked. IJ is no new question with us.
We have had occasion 10 utter our SER
tiEents OF the subject before, and
these sentiments have only beeu
strengthened By reflection. We think
iJ eyinces on the part of a gentleman,
a want of proper respect for a lady,
for him u seize her arm as though ne
claimed and held il by sort of pre-
emption right. He does not show
proper respect for the feelings Of deli
cacy aud refinement Of the lady, and
while he may nor land very often does
ao,) intend familiarity that will
cause remarks, inuendos and Ieflec-
tions that would deeply wound her
rsensibilities were She TO hear them,
yet, his act causes these remarks to be
made, and they are never to the credit
OF the lady. A lady will soTnetimes
permit this fsmilisrity either thought
lessly or from an unwillingness to
wound the feelings of a gentleman by
refusing. she ought 70 remember that,
il he is a true gentleman, he viii read
ny understand and Appreciate the del
ieacy Of feeling that prompts her re-
tusal, and respect her the more for it.
IL he is not gentleman tue. sooner
she gets rid of him the better for her.
We doubt IL even an engaged couple
can walk in this way, without eliciIing
remarks rejecting upon the lady, but
certainly no lady should permit anyu
gentleman TO thus escort her day or
night, anywhere, unless she has made
" her mind TO marry him and she is
willing for everybody 10 know ir.
Gentlemen ought TO respect ladies suf-
ficIently, 20 90 any length 10. protect
their reputations and their feelings,
and IL they will reflect a moment and
recall TO mind what they have heard,
and even perhaps said, about this new
custom, they viii abandon il with any
lady for whom they entertain tile
highest respect that is woman's due
Thank God We see very little OF thi.
disgusting fashion in Henderson, and
we hope the ladies will, for 'hcir ow
sake, drive it entirely ogt Of practice

MODERN POLITICIANS.

IL Is fact much to be regretted that
many of our modern politicians want
% find out what the people think, and
how they feel, on current questions Of
State aud Federal policy, before they
announce their positions. Many men
spend much time and thought in try
ing 70 ascertain the feelings of the
masses toward certain measures, and
20 suggest others that will add 10 their
personal popularity, espOusing aud de-
claring themselves the champion Of
every popular measure, and the OPP
poser Of every Unpopular one, regard
less Of ! light or wroIg- II isa shame
10 our modern leadership for men who
should and are naturally expected 70
understand Tie NisdQnl and the worth
OF every pabiic- measure, 70 quietly
stand by and await the formation of
public sentiment, and as soon as &c IS
thought that a line OF policy win
prove popular with the people, to es-
pOuse &C.. It Is also equally reprehen-
sible for men TO spouse and agitste
measures that are impelitic only be-
cause Jhcy'rossib1y add something to
the personal er1o.Imert OF the agita-
ton. Abuses have erept into State and
National high places, aud they ought
% b. exposed ana corrected The peO-
pie under a designing leadership have
become very much demoralized. and
they often cast their votes for unwor-
Thy aspiranis. What Is very much
nceled in modern politics are men who
are possessed OF sufficient amount
Of moral courage to.boldly and defiant
ly stand mp before the people and de-
fend tru;h and right, regardless Of
consequences Our leaders are pre-
sImei 10 study and understand the
merits ef public measures; and the
people are not, and the people natur-
ally look 10 the leaders for Information
on public Issues. The people are the
sOyereigns and the leaders are their
teachers. The people cast the ballots,
the leaders instruct them how to vote
Hence, the importance Of having an
honest, upright leadership.
Such a leadership we need 20 cham

We desire to call the attention of
the Farmers and Dealers to this
Shelter, which is just such an article
as every farmer should have.
1t combines shelter and separator
in one, discharging cobs, husks, &c,
from one opening and the corn,
nice and clean from another, into
sack, box or barrel. 1t is easily
operated byrone man or boy WHO
can shell and sack from eight to
twelve bushels per hour. 1t win
nub the corn for bread or seed and
leaves it as nice for planting as if
shelled by hand.
We offer no certificates or opinion
of others in regard TO this shelter,
but put it entirely upon its own
merits, inviting the closest examina-
ton; which cannot fail to satisfy any
one Of its superiority over all other
shelters. Every Shelter fully war
ranted for five years. County

While in Albany last week attending

for breach Of etiquette. bad left
my hotel and was on my way to the
courthouse. when noticed that one ol
my fingers WAS In deep mourning,
whereupon / drew my knife from my
pocket and proceeded 10 remove the
obnoxious matter. On the opposite
side Of the street, and coming toward
me, were four young-I wish / could
say adies-women, walking in couples
with al Intervening distance Of perhaps
thirty or forty yards One Of those be-
hind called TO one in froht and told her
to hurry and got her nails cleaned, and
to DO careful and clean them good and
TO clean them hereafter before she left
home. And jus: AZ passed them she
said /: ~ wonder IL he tumbled ~ There
were at least City persons heard the
remarks Of the young iooman, and,
while | was not injured by what she
said, nay not even annoyed, it left the
impression with nae that the young wo-
men were either courtesans or that it is
only question of time when they
would be, for they are treAding the
path that ends only in life of shame.
No Lady would have used the language
she used under any circumstances, least
Of all on the streets, in the presence OF,
and 70, an entire stranger. i do not
write this for the purpose Of gratifying
petty malice, nor do wish 70 cast
any reflections on the ladies Of Albany,
but il is time she citizens Of your place
had their attention calle1 ~ the beha-
vior Of such women, and that they be
required u conduc, themselves decently
while on the streets. Justice to your
ladies requires that strangers should be
treated courteously and that any wo-
men who are allowed TO perambulate
your streets, use slang phrases and
"csu" entire strsngery, are not calcu-
lated to give the place a good name
abroad. It may lie possible that the
young women l speak Of belonged to
the school east Of the courthouse, and
that they were only having, as they
thought, little innocent fun At my ex-
psnse, and that they did not know they
were using expressions seldom heard
from woman's lips outside Of house
Of prostitution, and never from the
lip. Of a LADY. II such bc the case,
will they allow mo To suggest, in spir-
il Of friendliness, that hereafter they
conduct themselves as ladies, remJmber-
ing that there is but one construction
men put on such behavior, and, that is
a construction which will mantle the
cheek of modesty with the blush Of
shame. Very young ladies are some
times thoughtless, but they should new
or. doe so when tkoughtlessness would
have = tendency to smirch their reputa-
ton. If what have written will be
the means Of causing one of oregon'a y
beautiful daughters to think before she
speaks I am well repaid for my trouble.
