Some other paper informed the public not long ago, that a man in a brown surtout was yesterday brought before the police court on a charge of having stolen a small oxâ€"boxâ€"from a lady’s work-bag. The stolen property was found in his waistcoat pocket. A rat â€"-raftâ€"says another paper. descend- ing the river came in contact with a steamboat; and, so serious was the injury to the boat, that great excr- tions were necessary to save it. An English paper once statedthat the Russian General Baekinofl’ltowsky was found dead with a long wordâ€"sword â€"in his mouth. it was, perhaps, the same paper that, i:. giving a descripv tion of a battle betuecn the Poles and Russians, said that the conflict was dreadful, and the enemy was repulsed with great laughterâ€"slaughter.

Mr. and Mrs. Y. Were rich and childless. This little creature, ragged ALJ uneducated, was more WL‘lCOIIH.‘ In them than a fortune. She was instantly wnshed and dressed, and teachers had for her.

I In “ Harper” for August is an acknow- ‘,letlgeinent that “American gentlemen are generally ill-bred,” and that our ~‘ country- llllall is too often known abroad by his high l pretensions and low breeding.” This is wiy candid and very true; but in the cur- rent (September) number he drops down on the ladies. He says that “to be seen of men is the highest ambition of our beauties, and they take care to spre; (1 their plumage before every eye ;”-â€"th \I “ our women, [cunning as they may be in most arts, want the alt of pleasingâ€"â€"that they not only have lit not, but seem unwilling to acquire It”â€" ‘that ‘- they never give a smile of acknow- l ledgement, or utter a simple thank-you for l favors in stages, omnibusses or steamâ€"boats” «and he adds, “ If what Livy says of wo- man be true, that she is more amiable abroad than at home, we should fear that American husbands have not a Very pleasant time of it at their own firesides.” a toilet, and meets Her Majesty and England‘s aristocracy at a banquet in St. George's Hall; finds his pillow and “ lirud nature’s sweet restorer.” at Cambridge House Piccadilly. when far into the “ small hours” of another day.

Afterwards (I quote from the Court organ) “entertains a distinguished circle at dinner, and a distinct party late in the evening," verifying what good Bishop Clark, of R.

Where does she flaunt her charms so freely? Where does her eye look with a steadier gaze on man ; \Vhere does her voice sound louder, and her laugh ring more sonorously? There is nothing, in fact which our woman are so deficient as re- Serve. There is a publicity of hearing about them which reminds one more of the hotel than of home. You see that they are veterans in courage, however young in years, and can stand steadily the fire of a hundred eyes.

If courage to face ' an enemy was all that was required, there would be no difliculty, we should think, in recruit- ing an army of bold-eyed Amazons among our beauties, ready to return look for look with the most formidable gallants that were ever marshalled tor mischief.” And again :â€" Whatever may be the cause, there is no doubt of the fact, that our female youth are more in the public eye, have a holder face, a looser (argue, and a freer air, than used to be considered consistant with the character of young gentlewomen.” Think, he says, of the consaquenccs to fe- male virluc of such freedom 9! will on the part of young girls withlmers.
