And another very important feature is durability. A Plow completed will lost a man from two to five years, accord ing to tho soil he cultivates, and will only cost about Three Dollars to put it up.

Terms Oasb.. jan3—twly Archbishop Hughes among the Ladies —A Pructical Speech. Bishop Hughes distributed tho pre miums at the Mount St. Vincent Acad, emy of the Visitation, .near New York on .Tuesday last, and at the conclusion of tho exercises, addressed the; young ladies as follows: ' “My Dear Children and Young La dies:—I have witnessed many anniver saries in which you received the testi monials of merit to wbioh you were en titled, but I do hot remember any occa sion whioh excelled the exercises of to day. But I will not enlarge upon this) there are probably a great many in this, audience better able to appreciate the merits of your performance than I am. We have the honor of having many dis tinguished persons present with us to day—not Btrangers, but friends. Only one thing has troubled us during thq exercises—your speeches made us sod— but this was fo be expected from the na ture of the occasion, when friends - and schoolmates were about to take leave of each other. But the chief thing that has troubled me isthedilemmain which one of the speakers placed the Sisters of Charity, by quoting a remark from me. True it is that they have, none to overlook them upon this hallowed 5 round but angels; unless, indeed,' our erBey friends on the other side of the river may look down upon them,— [Laughter.] But the dilemma in which they are placed is thiB; if tho term an gel can be applied to those good spirits that look down on the Sisters from above, why cannot the aame term be' applied to the young ladies I see before me? Here, then, are the Sisters be tween two sets of angels; the one over looking them from above, and the other looking up'to them for guidance and instruction. [Laughter.] Isn’t that a dangerous position to place the Sisters in ? May not this double compliment from earth and Heaven make them vain ? [Renewed laughter in which the Sisters heartily joined.] But to return ; although it is of-the utmost importance, young ladies, that you should have a good education, should be accomplished, cultivated, graceful and refined, yet there are other things that cannot be lost sight of. Be; fore another year rolls around I propose to arrange with the Sisters for a new branch of Btudy in the Academy. That branoh of stuiy is what the French call the science of cuisine. It is the acienoe of keeping house, and that we all know commences with the kitchen. Every young lady, I don’t care if she be a. queen’s daughter, ought to understand that department of life. Even though she may not have to practice it, though she may be able to hire her eook, yet she should understand it herself, fbr it may happen some duy that the cook will dismiss her. [Great Laughter.] What a predicament she would he in then. Well, what I was going to saj was that the Sisters should arrange it so that all the girl? over thirteen years of age should be. Enabled to ' spend' a portion of thb time in the kitchen,- and become acquainted with cooking aud housekeeping* Here will be a new bureau of education. [Laughter.] We shall then have the. theory and some practice too. . “Another point and I will close. At the ei>d of another year,.if living, „and my purse is long enough, 1 aip going to give a gold medal of not less than $50' in value, to the young lady who will write the best essay, not exceeding five pages in length, upon this great heto sci ence that I have spoken of.” [Laughter and applause.] Second Choice ot all Parties The “Louisville Journal” of recent date says: It is an advantage to our candidates, Bell and Everett, and certainly .a most important one, that they are, to all prac tical purposes, the second choice ot. all other parties. The fact, we believe,. is unquestionable. No one can doubt that the friends of Douglas and . Johnson would, under existing circumstances, rather see Bell- and Everett elected than cither Breck inridge and Lane or Lincoln and Ham lin. Nor can any one doubt that the friends of Lincoln and Hamlin would prefer Bell and Everett to either Breok- lnridge and Lane or Douglas and Jo] The’Speech 'of the Season. The Memphis Enfiinr ] panes Hie following high encomium upon the re cent speech of Mr. Hill, at Macon, which; our reader will recollect,, we characterised as the gretest political effort of the times: ' , • : , Wo invite especial attention to the speech of Mr. B. H. Hill, of Georgia, whioh appeared in our daily issue of yesterday morning, and will be found in our tri-weekly columns of to-day.— Whether we regard the value of its facts, the clearness and force with which- it sets them forth the cohclusivemress oi. its argument, or all combined, we do not lresitate to express the opinion that without disparagement to others, it has not yet been, .and-willjnot be, equalled, much less, surpassed by any speeoh of the canvass. It seems to ps to -embrace every essential* point and principle now in issue between the' several par ties, which, fpr weal or woe to our com mon country, has to be decided by the ue*t Presiaattlal election. And the vital ehoraoter of th'e issue thus made up, is presented a manner so plain, simple'apd direct, that no one who-can; fial to understand it, while the course of duty is urged upon the conscience and common sense of every patriot with a force of argument which we hoid to be absolutely irresistible. Let _ every. Constitutional Union man read it, ana find there, as hp will, the concentrated strength of every position' of his party, os : well as the substance of every rea son whioh maybe needed to susfgin |t. : Lot evpry Douglas, Breokinridge and Lincoln, man read it. and answer he can. . . ^ .

Parents’who ■connive' at such : an exhibition by allowing.their children to : run at large,- into bad company, are not; only responsible [or the yiolated decen cy of tho community, but will bo held auswerable to a higher power, and their iunishment will be inflicted' in the ffi gure worthlessness and degradation; of- their sons, i The Good Book tells us that, “those who sow to the wind shall read to thewhirlwind,” and on this au thority we cannot help thinking that some, parents in. this city are sure to be visited with a desolating hurricane of; sorrow in the future lives of their off spring. No sensible , being-can deny that permitting young and impressible boys, to roam about tho] streets,; with every temptation to vice and;dissipa- tipn, is but a poor way to .give them » right character; " ■’ *ar*“Le Foiled'for]-July says of Paris fashion^: “By-degrees flounces appear to be yegatheiing the position whichTor a time they had partially lost.
