FEMALE EMrLoYMEsr.-The editor of the
New York Mirror is strongly in favor Of wo-
men performing more of mans work. lie
says the millinery business ought to, be mo-
nopolsed by women. The shops where shoes
are sold for females, ought to have females
employed in them to do the fitting. tbs re-
voting often to see grown men lingering
around ones wifes, daughters, or sisters an
cles, fitting on. boots and shoes, and discourse
ing about the excellence Of the foot" or
"beauty of the shape" SC. Indeed, ladies
ought to insist upon being attended by wo-
men in such places, and thc'stores which en-
ploy them ought to have the preference in
custom.

IA Here we ars, gsptle render. BE moi
aaarAed at our eize: for remember that oil
shings had o beginning. and, by nature, that
beginning was small. As t.e poet says
~L1ge streams from little f,uotains fow,
Tall oaks from Little accrns srow."
This We design to be our aim As success
shal creHn.our efforts, ss We have no doubt
af it. we shall increase in size without adding
one farthing to the price. Remember this !
When the " Evening Star" shall grow to the
size Of tho full moon and its brightness shall
increase, it will still be within the means Of
every citizen to be enlivened by its rays.

PUSeTUALIfT.-Washington was minute
man. An accurate clock in the entry at NJ.
Vernon controlled tho movements of the fam
ily. At his dinner-parties he allowed five
minutes for difference Of watches, and then
waited for no one. If members Of Congress
came at late hour, his simple apology was
" Gentlemen we IRE too puuctual for YOU"
or, =" Gentlemen have q cook who never asks
whether the company has come, but whether
the hour has come" Nobody erer Uaitcd for
General Washington. He was always five
minutes before the time; andeif the parties
he had engaged to meet were not present at
the season appointed, he considered the en-
gagement cancelled, and would leave the
place and refuse to return.
