DefOrming the Feet.

The process of deforming the foot of
an American child is usually about as
follows: As soon as the victim is able
to walk, pair of straight-soled shoes,
rather narrower than the feet, is provi-
ded for it. In the course of few
weeks, the shoes, being worn the one
habitually on the right and the other
on the left foot, begin to take the shape
of the respective feet. This is no sooner
observed by the careful mother than
she exclaims: "Why, Johnny, you're
wearing your new shoes all out of shape;
you must change, and wear them on the
other feet" And if Johnny forgets,
finding the change by no means con-
ducive to comfort, he is whipped, to
aid his memory. 1t will readily be un-
derstood how we'll adapted these shoes,
now conformed to the natural curves OF
the feet, are to straighten out the curves
of the opposite feet. By this simple
means, repeated as often as the feet be.
gin to assert their independence, and
| persistently carried out, it often happens
that by the time child is six years old,
its great toe will be seriously DETECTED
from the rectilinear position, which
it ought to occupy, and the curve Of
the sole partially Strengthened. Fortu
nately both lasts and ready made shoes
can be obtained which approximate
quite closely to the natural shape of the
foot: and not only can the foot of tht
child be preserved perfect as it grow
up by using such lasts and shoes, but
foot which is already somewhat distort
ed may even be coaxed back more o
less nearly to its original shape-zA

B9-Every young man has a fortune
in the fact of his youth. The energy
of youth is unblunted by defeat or worn
by hope deferred. With age one be-
comes more conservative and looks at
as impossible what a younger person
would endeavor to accomplish, in many
cases with success. The effort, even if
there be failure, is a grand success.
Self confidence or self conceit, if you
wish to call it so, is grand thing. A
Young mans fortune is not to be found
in inherited wealth or social position.
Every man is the arbiter of his own
fortune. Gracious manners of business
habits are good things to cultivate, but
are not all. Will-power is the young
mans fortune. 1t is the essence of the
man. A young man with only little
will power is a foregone failure. II
should be cultivated. Genius is the
gift of God and should not cause pride
but an honest pursuit of duties is al
exhibition of will-power and some
thing to be proud of. Well-directed
educated will-power is what youni
man needs.

Changes in New Orleans Negroes.
NeW Orleans Correspondence NeO York Sun.

New Orleans Correspondence Neso York Sun.
1t used to be a favorite fable here
that the cross between the white and
negro became sterile in the third or
fourth generation. There is scarcely a
book written on the subject of slavery
by Southerner that does not contain
this utterly false and unfounded asser-
ton. On the other hand, no attention
has ever been called to the fact that
persons apparently white reproduce the
llneaments and peculiarities of their
distant African ancestors. Their lives
in New Orleans family which is we'll
known to be of colored descent, but the
daughters are perfect blondes. Some
eight or ten years ago one of these girls
married very respectable young white
man of this city. They have but one
child-now little girl of 7. 1t is
startling to see that child. 1t has a
muddy white complexion; the features
of the original African are wonderfully
nrodnced, including the fat nose. bio
And yet it is only one-sixty fourth
colored, and has to count back two
centuries to find negro ancestor. At
the same time that very small proper
ton of the lighter grades of colored
people are thus insensibly and slowly
melting away into the whites, the ma
jority of them are being swallowed up
in the great mass of negroes. Before
the war the free negroes and slaves kept
far apart; among the former, as among
the whites, there were grades of society
based largely on the proportions of
white blood in the veins. The cream
colored did not know the saddlehued,
and the latter looked down on the ma
hoganies. Freedom has altogether
swept away these distinctions, and it is
impossible to now tell the former slave
from the free man of color. The
former slaves made better politicians
than the free men of color. They rose,
acquired wealth, for politics was then
synonymous with wealth, and when they
married, sought, like Fred Douglass, to
get wives as nearly white as possible.
The girls of the octoroon class found
themselves in great demand as spouSeS
for these nOuveaux rzcheS, and were
thus married off and ceased to be seen
at balls, or to become the places of
white men. There is not prominent
colored politician in louisiana whose
wife is not several shades lighter than
he is, and the higher his rank and
wealth the whittier is the wife. This new
development completely changed the
position occupied by the mixed class of
the population, and with this change
came the disappearance of the former
octoroon balls. Freedom has killed
miscegenation. The white and black
races are drifting further apart every
day, and the mixed are growing fewer.
One third of the negroes of New Or
leans in 1868 were of mixed blood.
There is less danger to-day of the crea-
ton of a mixed breed in the South,
such as exists in Mexico and South
America now, than in the days OF
| slavery.

Good Breeding.
Boston BUDGET.

DNo'N'' NNNJNN'
There would be fewer broken friend
ships, fewer unhappy unions and family
quarrels, were it not so much the Gus
tom among intimate friends and rela-
tions to neglect the small courtesieS of
life to show less and less mutual defer
ence as they grow more and more ia
miliar. 1t is the foundation of misery
in marriage, and many serious and
lifelong estrangement has begun, not
from want of affection so much as from
lack of that delicate and instructive ap-
probation of the feelings of others,
which makes a person shrink from say
ing up pleasant things and finding fault
unless absolutely obliged; and in any
case avoid wounding the offenders
sense of dignity or stirring up within
him feelings of opposition and animos-
ity, for although many persons profess
to be above taking ofense at honest
censure, and even seem to court criti-
cism, yet it must be very carefully ad
ministered not to be unpalatable. Very
kind and generous actions are often so
uncouthly performed as to cause the
recipient more pain than pleasure, while
a reproof or denial may be so sweetened
by courtesy as to do away with any
sense of modification. or disappoint-
ment. True good breeding is always
inclined to form a favorable judgment
and to give others credit of being &C
tuated by worthy motives; it does not
wish or seem to know more about peo-
pie than they themselves desire should
be known, but is always prepared when
necessary, to take an interest in the af-
fairs of others, while self is not suffered
to obtrude unduly. A show of respect
never fails to beget respect. The
stronger an individual, the more i'm
pressive is his gentlenesS, the wiser he
is, the more gratifying and compliment
tary his Difference; and in a world
where there is so much unavoidable dis
comfort and unhappiness, it is surely
every ones duty to cultivate those
gracious manners under whose magic
influence the restless and dissatisfied
grow more content with their surround
ings, by which the difident are encour-
aged, the invalid is aroused and inter
ested, the young are inspired with self
respect, the old are kept bright and
hopeful; which, in short, beam sunshine
everywhere, and increase a thousand
fold the aggregate of human happiness.

Young men who have no special work
to do seldom amount to much. Idleness
will ruin the most promising young man.
1t does not matter much in what work a
young man may engage if he is always
busy. The honor is not in the vocation
but in the man. The young man who
determines upon ONE special line of
work and then devotes his time and en-
ergy to that work will not make a failure
of life. The world is waiting for men of
action. We have no sympathy for the
young man who spends his time loafng
and talking about hard times. No use
to complain. The world will permit no
man to starve who always does the best
his circumstances will permit.
