A SKCjUM, TO THIS SOKti AND A MORAL FOR LOVERS! Don’t woo then alone with caresses, Nor efft-r bright jewels and rings, They may do very well for a season, But at last they are trifling things. Don’t swear by your heart you adore them, Nor offer yonr hand oo your kuoes, If the soul is sincere in devotion The simplest lip-language will please. But pray don’t go wild with affection, It may do very well for a time ; It may cause them to pass a sweet evening, Or give them a subjeet for rhyme; But there are other things too to be thought of, When a lad to bis sweetheart goes wooing, Far kisses alone won’t support you— There’s work for the hands to be doing ! Has French society become better during the reigu of its savior ? Let Louis Veullot be the judge. Here are a few extracts from his recently published book, Les Odeurs de Paris, Speaking of theatrical exhibitions, he writes: “What is dieadfinty shocking is the means nsed to attract the public. The bait is a naked woman. Ido not speak • of the horror of the soul at such a sight, but airaply of tire horror of the eye. The spectacle is more awful than unmannerly. The declasses exhibited on the stage, wot ooly have horrid ugly faces, but their figures are atrociously deformed ; some are bow-legged, others crooked, and every one of them are impudent and clumsy, not knowing how to walk or bow to stand. Oh, dreadful deforma tions of the moulting crane.” “Fancy you are i» the drawing-room of a pro vincial actress beginning to decline—a smoking lamp, stained silks, and tinsels scattered upon the dingy furniture, twenty rancid cosmetics—there is the ■Cfcnerf, The lady dresses herself while speaking with her friends; she dyes aud paints; she stuffs herself; she hangs glossy hair upon her scanty, greasy curls; she plants teeth into her gums; she cries at every gray hair left on her domb; she laughs; she drinks brandy ; she mends her court mantle ; she narrates her past victories; she is ready. The curtain rises ; she plays Celiraene. Do you not feel dismayed, disgusted, terrified ? Do you not run away to avoid that breath, that paint, that hoarseness ?” The Negro at Howe—Two Hun dred Men and Brethren Secrifickd to the Genii. — A letter trom Lagos, on the coast of Africa, says: “The frigate Zenoble, carrying the flag of Rear Ad miral Viscount Flenfiot de Langie, commanding the French naval squadron on the West coast of Africa, bus just visited St. Paul de Loande, the chief place of the Portuguese establishment of Southern Guinea. The day after tire arrival of the frigate at Lagos, an Eng lish steamer brought news from I)ulio mey. The King was preparing to go to war with the Ashantces, and to propiti ate fortune had ordered two hundred men to be sacrificed to the Genii. This 5s the third time within a vesr that he has indulged fn this horribfe barbarity The total number of deaths in the rity ot liOrfisvHhf, during the month ot December lust, was only bne hundred and thirty six, certainly a very small mortality in a city of I2f», 00(1 inhabitants, Os those nearly one half were children under five years of age.
