FRIDAY MORNING Sept. 14, 1866 Dress Welu.— The California Golden Era exhibits the possession of sound sense when it declares that, to dress well is a duty which every man and woman owes society. Each person constitutes a part of a whole which may be beau tiful or not, as the different parts choose to make it. Beauty is one of the luxu ries which the rich and poorpnjoy alike. Beauty feeds one sense, as perfunn does another, as a delightful atmosphere feeds a third, as music feeds a fourth. Every One who contributes to the genera; store is a public benefactor. Each one furnishes something which all the rest may properly admire. This thought probably does not prompt a majority of the handsome toilettes we see in the streets, hut the fact remains, neverthe less. That pretty woman who spends three hours over her morning toilette, who comes out at last most becomingly arrayed, has not probably been sup ported in her labor by any desire to con tribute to the happiness of the human family. Yet she cannot help giving pleasure to all well-regulated minds who see her, whether she desires to do so or not. The vanity which causes her to study out a toilette in harmony with her person serves the world more than it serves her. It is in this way that pretty, vain womeu, who are inclined to be idle, are made useful. The beauty which they create does not appear to them as it appears to those who behold them. They have a consciousness that they look pretty, but they cannot see themselves. It is doubtful, also, if women take as much pleasure in each other's beauty as they ought. Men are the chief gainers by the feminine desire to be beautiful. A feast for the eye is continually offered them, and at best they can make hut a poor return. Yet men continually com plain of women’s fondness for dress, as if they were not beuefitted by the results attained. Suppose, for argument’s sake, that women should become indifferent to their personal appearance—what would become of meti ? What would become of men’s tastes ? What would become of society ? And what would become of business? Who would support those handsome jewelry, millinery and dry goods stores which give such an effect to the streets ? Where would we find cus tomers for the goods wo manufacture, and what would become of the people who make comfortable livings by manu facturing the goods that rich people buy 7 In fact, the train of casualties that would follow the lo3S of woman’s natural desire to make herself as pretty as she possibly can, is fearful to contem plate. Our factories would stop. Trade would languish. Ships would lie idle at our wharves and sailors roam penniless in our streets. Churches would be very poorly attended. Theatres would de generate into melodeons. Ball-rooms would be frequented only by very young persons of both sexes who are very fond of dancing. The love of the beautiful, which grows with years, would not he served. It is some consolation to know that this condition of things is not likely to come to pass. Ladies, we confidently believe, will continue to bestow considerable atten tion upon dress to tlie last moment of recorded time. We hope they will. We do not wish to survive the period ot woman’s love of dress, which is one form of her love of the beautiful. It is true her extravagance is sometimes annoying, but who ever yet struck a happy medium and kept it for ever? Men certainly do not. Men commence with a social glass and end in the gut ter. Men do a thousand things more senseless and injurious than woman’s adornment of her person. We repeat, it is every one’s duty to dress well. But dressing up to the fashion, or a little beyond it, is not always dressing well. Let women consult their own correct tastes more and fashion less, and they will dress better and be less subject to reproach. Let them study new effects, if they have time, hut let those effects be womanly. The cry against dress is simply a cry against the abuse of dress. No man who has a spark of soul or au idea above the commonest wants of nature, but takes a degree of pleasure in beholding a well-dressed woman. Snuff & Tobacco. P. HANSBERGER & CO.
