A9 the 8uaiu all his splendor was peeping over tho eastern hills, a newly married matt exclaimed, *• (be glory of the world is rising!” His wife, who happened to be getting op at that moment, taking the compliment to her* self, simpered out, ** What would you say, my dear, if I had my silk gown on ?” There never was a wiser maxim than that of Franklin. ** Nothing is cheap which we do not want.” Yet how perfectly insane many people are on the subject of buying cheap things. “Do tell mo why you hnve bought that cast of door plater” asked the husband of one ofthose notable bargainers; .‘‘Dear mo.” replied my wife, “you know it is always my plan to lay up things against time of need ;• who knows but you tnay die, and I marry a man with the aarne name as that ou iho door plate.” An anecdote is related, which well illus trates the eager haste with which the vota ries of fashion follow those who are considered as eulitlcd to take the lead. A few years since, when queues were universally worn, the present King, then Prince Regent, ap peared one morning in 8t. James’s Pork, with his queue turned up under his hat. He was noticed by all the exquisites, who, sup posing his queue was cut oif. immediately re paired lo the barbers to follow his example, and such a cropping of tails never before took place in one day iu London. The next morning, to their great mortification and chagrin; the Prince appeared as usual, with his queue at full length, laugbiog iu his sleeve, no doubt, nt the number of tailless monkeys which had been duped by aping him. A bull lias been promulged at Rome against Jews, heretics, pa^aus. sorcerers, .Vc- At first, this was said to be a mere formality, complied with on the accession of every uow Pope, without any idea of carrying it into execution. According to letters, however, from Bologna, of 12th inst.. all Jews are (0 be expelled, in fact, from the Rmnau Slates, by order uf Cardinal Albani, Secretary of State. “Talking of storms,” said nn honest Irish man, the other day to a friend of ours 5 “at Wilmington,, last summer, we had the hen viost I ever saw in my file, considering the size oftho town.” As a feat almost unprecedented, we may mention that a youug man in respectable life, on Monday last, swam from this port to the haven of Barton. He started from the Pa tent Slip Yard, near the West Pior,at 12 o’ clock at noon, aud arrived at Burton 4 min utes before two. The distance is between six and seven miles. A bout accompanied him at &6hort distance, lo bo ready in the event of accident, and he returned in the evening, apparently little fatigued with this extraor- diouty exertion.—Hull Advertiser. Eloquence ok silence’—IIow eloquent is silenco ! Acquiescence, contradiction, de ference, disdain, embarrassment, and awe. may nil be expressed by saying nothing. It may be necessary to illustrate this apparent paradox by a few examples. Do you seek an assurance of jour mistress’ a (lection ? Tho fair ouc, whose timidity shrinks from an avowal of her tender sentiments, confirm’) her lover’s fondest hopes by complnccut and asseuting silent. Should you hear nn asser tion, which you may deem false made by some one, of whose veracity politeness may Withhold you from openly declaring jour doubt ? You denote & ditfi)rene& of opinion by remaining silonce. Are you receiving a reprimand from a superior ? You mark your respect by anattcntivenndeubmissiveailenco. A re you compelled to listen to the frivolous conversation of a coccamb ? You signify your despicablo opinion of him by treating hia loquacity with contemptuous silence.-r Aro you, in the course of any negotiation, n- bountto enter on a discussion painful to your own feelings, nnd to those who aro con* cernced in it ? The subject is almost iuvar i&bly prefaced by an awkward silence. Arc you witnbss to some miraculous display of supernatural power, the dread and astonish ment with which you are impressed imposes an Involuntary silence. Silence lias also its utility and advantages. And, 1st, what an incalculable portion of domestic etrifo and diisention might bavo been prevontol ; how ofieu might the quarrel, which, by mu tual aggravation, has perhaps terminated in bloodshed, have been ckcck^j in its com* monoement by a woll timed end judicious si lonce : those persons only who have experi enced are aware of the benefioial effects of that forbearanco which, to tho exasperating throat,tho malicioussnuor,or the unjustly im puted culpability, shall answer nevor a word. Sdiy, There are not wanting instances where the reputation, the fortune, (he happiness,nay the life ofthe fellow crunluro, might be pre served by a charitable silence, either by tbo suppression of «omo condemning circumstan ces, or by rofusing to unite iu the'defainalory nirc^tiou. 3d!y, To aiif one .who iean.x* jous to pass fur a person of deep refleuiion * and superior understanding, I would recom mend to say but little; silence being consid ered bv many people as a certain indication. of wisdom; nnd I must myself confess I should prefer the man who thinks much without speaking, to him who speaks much without thinking. Not thut I would be supposed to b« an advocate for habitual taciturnity. No Jt.‘ can better appreciate the delight derived "inn intcllentual intercourse.. Notwithstan ding which, I see daily cause to ndmjre Iho ' ruth and justice of that apothegm which saya —“Of much speaking cometh repentuuce,but in silence is safety.”—Lond. Mag. After a long silence, Lady Morgan has once more come before the public, not as a romancer or an historian,but,ns best became "tie of tho fair sex, with The Book of the Boudoir, a little work filled wjih the spirit, and calculatedTor the meridian of that de lightful ternplo of woman’s fascination and unresisted supremacy. It is diecunive, like her Ladyship’s imagination. Original anec dotes, piquant observations, souvenirsdupat* se, sentiment, sallies of wit, thoughtfulness, levity, gloom, joy—all topics, all countries, and almost, all passions, are inndn to contri bute a leaf,sometimes a flower,to the wreath sho has wove. Among such a variety it is difficult to make a choice, but we take tha following anecdote, applying to a well known Viiionary,for its characteristic singularity.— London Courier. “ One of the most benevolent, amiable, and sanguine of all philanthropists called oo ine, with a countenance full of some new scheme of beneficence and utility. It was Mr. Owen, of New LanaYk, whose visits are always welcome in Kildare street, though so ‘ few and far between.’ “ As soon as we had sunk into our arm chairs, and put our (cet on tho fender, and before we hod got on the usual topics of par allelograms and perfectibility, New Lanark aud a new social system, he began, “ ‘My dear Lady Morgan, you are to havs a party to-night.* “ * To be sure, my dear Mr. Ownn, and one mado expressly for yourself. You are my lion ; I hope you don’t mean to jilt me.* ** * By iio moans ; but I have brought you better linn than 1 could prove. 1 “ ‘ I doubt that; hut who is he ? where is he ?’ In my pocket., You dou’l say «o ; is it alive ? ’ • II- ra it is,* said Mr. Owen, smiling ; aud drawing forth u little parcel, he enfolded nnd held up a canvass tunic, or chonnse, trimmed with red tape. “ * 1 want j’ou,’ ho added, * to assist me in bringing into fashion this true costume of oq- luro’s dictation, the only oue that uuq euouid wear.* *• * But woman, my dear Mr. Owen ?* •* 4 Or woman either iny dear Lady.* “ * Consider Mr. Owen, the cliumte!* •• • Your face clues not either from it.* “ * But then again, the decencies ?’ “ 1 The decencies, as you call them, I.adjr M , are conventional—iliev were thought ot'some years ago, when yon were all dres sed in the udhccive draperies of antiquity, liku that beautiful group on jour chinmej- pieco. You seo there the children of Niubo who wore no more voluminous garments than my tunic that lovely child, for instance, which Niubo is endeavoring lo save from the shafts of Apollo. And yet none of your fine gentlemen and Indies uie schnoked by tho definition of forms, which have ever been tile inspiration of art. 1 assure you 1 havo already got several ladies to try thu tuaic- *«n—’ 'Oh ! Mr. Owen ! ! !’ k On ilieir litllo boys. Lady Morgan ; and if I could only induce you to try it.—’ “ ‘Me. my dear Mr. Owen ! You surley canuot suppose—’ “ ‘1 don’t a*kyou to wear it, Lady M all I beg for the present, is, that you will give il n trial, by showing it off at your par ly to night—recommend it, puff it off!’ “ Quillcpuur le peur, I promised to do 60, to the utmost of my appraising abilities ; aod so we suspended the litllo chemise from .the centre of my bookcase, uuder a bust of tho Apollo. “ ‘There i’said Mr. Owen, looking rap turously at the little model dreea of future perfectibility,‘thereit is worthily placed!
