But there is a lower class of character and- life in Sydney as Well as 'a higher. There are ‘slums’ and dens of infamy and crime, wllcre the grcgs 'ofx' 'human'vcorruption and soothe", ferment,";and break out in terrible violence. " There are more than‘ five hundred publicliouses ' in Sydney and its immediate- neigh- borhood, and some of them are as dark and cellar-like as any that can be found in our own Wapping, or that could have been-found in- St. Giles’s. u bile others are as gay and garish as our own street-corner gin- palaces. Drunkenness and gambling are of gigantic strength in Sydney, and destroy their victims with fear-. ful rapidity. The ‘ great socialevil,’ too, is apparent in the streets, both day and night ; and that though Wo- - man’s household service 1here has large remuneration. Thirty to thirtyufive pounds a.year is a com- mon wage for servant-maids; and then there are holidays required, and various conditions imposed, which are provokineg embarrassing to mistresses of household-Sp ln- deed, throughout colonial society there is a freedom of speech and manner surpassing what exists in the old countiy. Labourers and servants of all classes speak and act wrth greater independence; boys in the streets shOut their ridicule upon ‘ new chums,’ as newly-arrived persons are called; andhliltlechil-L dren. though not soipreciocious asin the United States, nevertheless, are ready to assert their j-‘rightsJâ€"e; Money is more plentiful; and though expenses may be greater, so as to reduce materially real profit, yet; the handling of heaps of gold and silver gives conscious importance. YOUNG Gianaâ€"To our thinking there is no more exquisite creature on the earth, than a girl from twelve to fifteen years of age. There is a period in the summer’s morning, known only to early risers, which combines all the tenderness of‘the‘ dawn, with nearly all the splendor of the day. There is at least full promise, of the dazling noon; but yet the'dew drop glistens on the half opened flower, and yet the birds. sing with rapture their awakening? song.‘ SO too, in the morning of‘ a. irl’s life there is a time like this, when the rising glory of woman-' hood sparkles from tlieISporisof an- infant, and the-elegance of a-‘queen- ly grace adorns t-hc-gambols-of babyâ€" hood. Unimpeded yet by the sweep-' iog raiment" to ‘which she foolishly aspires, she glides among her gros- ser play fellows like a royal yacht among the fleet of coal barges. Un‘ cOnSciOtiSitess'(alas, how soon to do. part!) has all the effect of the high- est breeding; freedom gives her elegance, Ianl health adorns her with beauty. Indeed, it seems to be the peculiar providence of her sex to redeem this part of life frOin ' opprobrium.--Good Words. AN OLD Man’s ADVICEâ€"â€"I am now an old man. I have lived near a century.
