Beinff at a parly divert hv an uMcrly lmlv of
irond fortune nmi uni knowing many r.f tin
company, as I wns a Htran^er in th« town of
, 1 was more of a spectator lhan un
actor. — At leuptli I saw enter tlic room an
nouur.ot) ns Miss , n tall, thin
figure, lipnrinjjevident marks of having boon
once extremely oh’uant, with a faro whom sor
row and disappointment seemed to vie with
humble timidity. This htdv excited tny com
passion from the moment I beheld her; I felt
certain that errief dwelt in her hrenst. An ani
mated conversation was ^oin^ on around her
a* 1 she sot down, once or twico site attempted
to join in it. hut with a half-averted glance
a tone so fearful and undecided flint no one
attended to her remarks She seemed to snv
within herself, why should I speak ? Can any
mortal fee! an interest in what 1 say ? A half
suppressed sipli, ami an adjustment of her dress,
nrisint; from nervousness, and not from vnni
ty, forslie had ceased to feel if, closed the
scene, for she said no more that evening, than
to answer in monosyluhles to the questions that
were oeensionally asked hy the mistress of the
house. Yet even in the lone of those simple
monosylables, I could discover n feeling and
perhaps n sensitive mind. To a close observer
of human nature in nil its wonderful varieties,
m tone a word a plane®, will betray the se
cret though uneonscioue feeling of the heart.
Music whs proposed, find it was the whim of the
moment to revive old songs. A young lady
whose voice was melody itself, sung, with both
feeling and good taste,
“ Oh, Nanny, will thou gang with me
All eyes were turned on tin; young musician,
hut mine still dwelt on the countenancn of Miss
. It assumed, 1 thought, a more and
morn melancholy cast. A few drops from eyes
that had onco been bright and lovely, fell on n
dress wlms' faded colors showed hut foocvidei t
signs of n slender purse. No one hut myself
perceived the little hy-sceuc, and I was careful
that even my observations should not lie dis
covered by the object of them.
I returned home more melancholy than from
a tragedy or the reading of a sad story of dis
appointed allcclions. l’or l had seen leal sor

hut in real life, huniatt tile as it is, many a pin
ing disappointment and many a hitter pang
from the overthro w of our hopes, have human
beings, and especially women, to hear in silence
and neglect. Are there then no objects of com
passion beyond the beggars who importune us
at our carriage door r Are there no wants
hut those of bread ? Yes, the want of a friend
to sympathize in our sorrow—the want of one
heart to heat in unison with our own, anil in
the loss of happiness—the want of energy to
rise above our misfortunes ami despise them,
will bring us sooner into onr cold graves, than
the most abject poverty and pinching hunger
A woman, a poor weak woman, without
strength of mind, whose heart is capable til
tenderness ai d love what is she when age has
destroyed her charms for one sex, and poverty
has rendered her useless to the other ? Sad
ness becomes her portion and damps her power
of adding her little mite to the ngreeableness
of the passing hour. »She becomes more and
more spiritless and dejected, whose lot in life
Providence has detsined to he less unfortunate.
The rising generation treat her with contemp
tuous neglect ; unable, from her slender frame
ami unstrung nerves, to assist or encourage
their amusement, she takes no interest in them,
and from their unconsciousness of sorrow and
its destructive effects, they have no compas
sion for her. She is to them silent and inani
mate, they ridicule and despise her. Of those
who have known her in the days whefi pleas
ure and light-heartedness were not merely a
name, many are no more; many are far away.
&. if one half kind and half eustninged friend,
whose heart is almost indifferent to Iter suffer
ings, he with her in the last sad hour, und sh< d
one tear as she closes her eyes in this work! for
ever, it is more than she has for many years
dared to hope. Is this a picture of human
woe? It is a true tale. Let then a little
our charity be bestowed on such eullerers. L
us not insult their mi&fortunes nor add to them
the pang ot coldness ami neglect; hut tet us he
companions to the compnuiotilcss, and give
from cheerfulness to the broken hearted, us read-
ly as we givohrend to the hungry. It is u bet
icr gift, a gift to the heart, that is ever bestowed,
but with more true charity in it than iu the
poor beggarly elements.
WOMAN — by MRS. H. j. HALE.
1 believe that in the original conformation of
soul there exists ns much dissimilarity among
women as men; and the reason that tho origin
al capacity is not more distinctly developed and
displayed, is wholly to be ntlriluied to thoHitua-
tion of the female sex. There is for them hut
oar pursuit. Of what use is it for us to deny
the lud, that it is in the marriage cstahlisment
only, woman seeks her happiness, ^•expects
her importance, when all history and our own
obserx ntion, confirm it to he the truth ? It is not
so with men : they have more than one medium
w hereby to seek for fortune, fume and happi
ness. and that ip, in my opinion, the sole reason
of their superiority of mind over us. How do
I wish women to !>»• sensible of this, and endeav
or to find or make an employment consistent
with propiifty—lliut must never he relinquished
which would give to iheir minds strength and
dignity ; that strength and dignity which is ac
quired from exertion or self independence.—
15ut while women imagine they are gaining im
portance, and are flattered with those cornpli
moms on their intellectual progress, which the
gentlemen sometimes deign to bestow, they
seem perfectly unconscious that they have
nuitlc one step of advancement in the scale of
society, or at least they are only engaged in the
same occupations, namely, that of canvassing
fashions and superintending household affairs,
that occupied the sex a thousand years ago. 1
i!o not say that women have not more learning,
that they do not read more ; hut pray tell me
w but difference this has created in their pur
suits ? except to make them leas useful—be
cause they now, many of them, think that to
woik with their hands” is disgraceful for lu
dim, and yet there is no employment provided,
which they can exercise their talents uml
Icai uing ndvaulagcouly — or, iudeed, at all. I
would raise them from this supinencFs. 1
would base ibcin seek some cmloymoiit, have

REMARKAULC TALE OF MURDERS
There lived in Lyons, in a rospertatdo alnliun nf
life, n innn nanirul Peter Claudius Chnvallior, wIiohii

obtained lor him lli** esteem of tho citizeriH It was
his nativo |»l«co, although ho had heon long absent
and hu was married to the hist nf four wives, whom
ho had choson from among the mliubitanlM, nnd with
whom he had uniformly hv< d in contentment ami
peace One clay a child was stolen in a neighbooi-
ing village hy n gonlocly dressed man, who had enti
ced the little victim with bon ions and caresses, till
he caught him up iu his arms, nud fled with the prize
A hot pursuit immediately’ commenced, nnd after
great difficulty, the criminal wna apprehended ; when
to the astonishment of all Lyons, lie was discovered
to he Peter Claudius Cliovnllier, “ aous-chef* in tlm
“ bureau des finances” of the prefecture of tho
Rhone —Tho sensation which this circumstance ex
cited was at first that of simple surprise ; hut the ex
planation ho gave of his motives for the ciitno caus
ed tho inhabitants of Lyons to turn their eyes at (mist
in doubt upon ihe prisoner. He said ho had inland
ed to consolo himself for the loss of n child of his
own, hy adopting tho ono lie had stolen. Till this
moment neither his \% ifo nor tin* public had ever heard
of tho loss of his child, which they supposed to hu
li\ ing iu health with its nurse nt Villeurbuuues. llow
did this bereavement happen, und why was it con
cealed ? He said lie find been to Villetirhuaaes to
bring it home, hut fatigued, intoxicated, unacquaint
ed with tho country, nnd overtaken by the. night, he
hud wandered out of his way among thicket* and
proeipiccs, and lost the child, whom he was afraid to
look for in theduik. These circumstances of his ,
journey were physical impossibilities. He could not
havo bocn fatigued by so ordinary a walk, nor intoxi
eatod after spending only twelve sous in refreshments,
nor overtaken hy tho night in so short a time, nor
led out of a straight toad hotdored by thick hedges,
nor lost among thickets and procipiees in a level
country, where there was not u thicket nor precipice
i to ho seen. There seemed to ho something so extra*
ordinary and mysterious in this affair, that ul last peo
ple naturally turned an enquiring and suspiciout
look at the whnlo conduct of tho prisoner Hurmisrs
oven began to get afloat that lie had no right to tho
name hy which ho was known nt Lvons It was ane
woll known in the city : and even if its possessor had
heon absent from boyhood, there surely might have
been some

Meoling the Governor as ono whom he ha.t
never seen before, lie endeavoured 10 give ilie
impression that they had always been strangers
to each other. To his now ruler lie spoke as
if he had no remembrance of his person or
name, nnd played his part so well, that the for
mer was almost convinced that the youthful
quarrel had escaped Ills recollection. Know
ing, however, tho duration of a Russian resent
metit, the Governor prudently resolved to bo
upon his gunrd. Still every thing continued to
proceed smoothly, ami the smiles and civilities
of the Count couliuueii to he lavished upon bin
old enemy and nothing occurred to awaken
suspicion or to cloud their mutual courtesies.-
At length the Count appointed a day for giving
a greal/efe at his castle. This castle was shu
nted on a rough and dibictllt tract of country,
protected hy mountainous de files, yet hut a few
miles distant from the head quarters of the
Governor. To this castle his excelloncy wus
invited to attend tho feast, which was to ho
adorned with all the splendors nud magnifi
cence of the Russian noblesse. He accepted
the invitation, hut ullcr ho had done so, vvnsvi-
sited by certain doubts ns to tho sincerity of
bis host, notwithstanding the complete obli
vion to which a period of tweonty years hud.
apparently consigned tho resentment of tho
Count. He tool, the precaution therefore to
order a body of dragoons, twenty of whom
should he provided with stirrup leathers or
leathern thongs, to follow him privately, and
when the clock should strike nine, to close
round the castle, while tho subaltern ollie.er in
command proceeded to report himself to him,
wherever he might he. To this officer the or
ders were strict. No mailer when, bow, or
about what the Governor might bo engaged,
when the clock struck nine the officer must
in his presence nnd ready to receive his com
mands. After giving these orders the Gover
nor repaired to the fete. Hu was received
with groat politeness and greeted with every
demonstration of respect. The hubs wero
decked with oriental magnificence. Barbaric
pearl ttltd geld were literally showered upon
the splendid draperies of the ample halls, nnd
the dresses of the ladies glittered with jewelry.
Rich music formed a concert of horns (on which
each performer is taught to sound only n single
note, so that there must hu as tunny performers
ns there are notes in the gamut, itt order to
play a single tune, and an immense number to
compose u hand) was pouring forth its inspiring
harmony. I’lutnes were nodding, bright eyes
wore glancing, generous wines wero sparkling,
every tiling was in accordance with festivity
und joy. Htill the Governor observed that of
all the guests, whether ladies or noblemen, not
ono was present who was not connected by
Idood or marrlnge with tho lord of the custlo.
lie gave himself up tu tho fascination of the
scene, however, emoyed the splendid arrange

Their usefulness, generally speaking, consists

hut it is till subservient to the grand end. In

and ’the ricoich, sysling ; or, in other words,

vants, und vainly attempting to mend bad ones.
If in easy or high life, an equal portion of time
is thrown away iu making ihemsolveB huttcrlly

liis homo hud boon consecrated by the presence of
tlireo wives successively, and lighted up hy the smiles
of a young and beautiful mistress. It was to this
period that the attention of tho inquirers wus now
directed. Theso ladies had ull died of tho some dia
csso—inflamotion in tho abdomen ; and tho majority
nt that critical period in the life of a female, when
nature prolongs tho duration of the human race by
tho performance of a mirnclo in the humnn economy.
The 9yni|itons and circumstances of the disease had

The Count proclaimed his hulled, retuirjfcil
hitu of their ancient quarrel, and proceeded
with tlie assistance of his kinsman to strip tho
hack of his enemy, uud to inllict a severe tla-
gellntion upon his naked body.
After gratifying their malignity with this in
fliction, the Count und iiis kinsmen directed
their guest to return to the dancing room and
display his disgrace to the company by dancing-
till supper time. The Governor who had not
from the first betrayed the slightest expression
of hu tiering walked with a firm step, and a

FEMALE DRESS.
Tho following little conversation on the all
important subject off**malo dress, from the new
novel of Flirtation, should he listened to with
attention !»y our fa^hionalilo fair ones:—“Re
ally,’ cried Lady Glossington, 4 it is u vastly
handsome tlresss, a magnificent dress—there
now, don’t stoop ; hold up your hem! whatever
you do, a lady never looks sb well as when she
maintains an upright posilition of the head ;
remember first to turn your chin over one
shoulder, then over tho other, drawing yourself
well up At the same time, and stepping back a
pace or two thus: while nt the same time, you
piny oil’ your fan thus:’ and Lady (ilassington
showed her receipt lor practising tho graces.—
‘Vastly well, my Lady Glassiuglou, vastly
well, nobody has a liner carriage than you.—
Emily, you cannot do better than take a leaf
out of her ladyship’s hook on the graces.* 4 I
think,’ said Lord Hullamont, 4 that ladies dis
figure themselves very much by all their mil
linery contrivances ; and if they would only
adopt some sort of dress more analogous to the
human form, and keep to that, they would look
much handsomer. The less of contrivance,
and quirks, and puffings, and plaiting*, and
gimpiugs, and little ins and outs, tho better.-
Something large, flowing, of tine mateiiul il you
will, only none oi'your contrivances. Look Jess
at milliners’shops, and more at pictures; hut
nothing can ever look well, so long us women
paint their faces.”
“The late Dutchess of Gordon having sent a
card to Mr. I*itt to meet a party at dinner on
Thursday, at 0 o’clock iu the evening, received
a note in reply, alleging his sorrow nt not be
ing ahe to avail himself of her Grace’s invita

of Lincoln nt the same hour.’
