THE NEW AND SUPERIOR STEAMSHIP When I say that the street dress of the ma jority of respectable women of New York to day is dusgneting, I but feebly express my emotions. I say the respectable women, and yet, save to those who know them to be such, their appearance leaves a wide margin for doubt. The clown at the circus wears not a more stunning or parti-colored costume; in fact, his has the advantage of being suffi ciently “taut”—to use a nautical phrase—not to interfere with locomotion; while theirs— what with disgusting humps upon their backs, and big rosettes upon their sides and shoul ders, and loops, and folds, and buttons, and tassels, and clasps and bows upon their skirts, and striped satin petticoats, all too short to hide often clumsy ankles—and more colors heaped upon one poor little fashion- ridden body than ever were gathered in one rainbow—.and all this worn without regard to temperature, or time or place—I say this presents a spectacle which is too dishearten ing eVen to be comical. One cannot smile at the young girls who are, cine day—Heaven help them!—to be wives and mothers. Wives and mothers! I say to myself, as I see the throat and neck with only the protection of a gold locket between itself and the cold autumnal winds. Wives and mothers?. -I say, as I see them ruining their feet and throwing their ankles out of shape, in the vain endeavor to walk on heels like corks, fastened far into the middle of the sole of their boots; and those boots so high npon the calf of the leg, and so tightly buttoned across it, that circulation is stopped, and vio lent headaches follow. Wives and mothers! I say, as I see the heating and burdensome panier tackled on the most delicate portion of a woman’s frame, to make still sorer con firmed invalidism.

If I seem to speak harshly it is because I feel earnestly on this subject—I-had-hoped that the women of 1868 would have been worthy of the day in which they live. I had hoped that all their time would not have been spent in keeping up with the chameleon changes of fashions too ugly, too absurd for toleration. It is because I- want to be something, to do something higher and nobler than a peacock might aim at, that I turn heart-sick away from these infmitessimal fripperies that nar row the soul and purse, and leave nothing in their wake, but emptiness. Nor is it necessary, in avoiding “all tins, that a woman should look “strong-minded,” as the bugbear-phrase Sign of the Golden Sheep.
