Os the women, with their witchery of man ner, it is not easy, or rather it is not possible, lor a stranger to speak with impartiality, inas much as our self-love is naturally enlisted in favor of those who. in every look, tone and gesture, have apparently no other end in view than the pleasure of pleasing us. With re gard, however, to their physical charms, as distinguished from the adventitious accom plishments of education, it is difficult even for a willing pen to exaggerate. Indepedently offeeling or motion, their sparkling eyes and glossy hair are in themselves sufficient to neg ative the idea of tameness and insipidity ; while their sylph-like forms evolve fresh graces at every step, and their eloquent features eclipse j their own inherent comeliness by the higher ! beauty of expression. Though doubtless ful- j ly conscious of their attractions, yet the wo men of California, to their credit be it spoken do not -before their mirrors count the time.” | , being on the contrary, by far the more indua-1 trious half of the population. In California J such a thing as a white servant is absolutely j unknown inasmuch as neither man nor wo-; man will barter freedom in a country where I provisions are actually a drug and clothes al- j most a superfluity; and accordingly in the ab sence of intelligent assistance, the first ladies i of the province more particularly when treat-1 ■ ed. as they too seldom are by native husbands l i with kindnessand consideration, discharge all ■ j the lighter duties of their households with j cheerfulness and pride. Nor does their plain I and simple dress savor much of the labor of the toilet. They wear a gown sufficiently - short to display their neatly’ turned foot anil i ankle in their white (torkings and black shoes j while perversely enough they bandage their heads in a handkerchief so as to conceal their j hair except a single loop on either cheek; ! round their shoulders moreover they twist or! swathe a shawl throwing over all, when they ■ walk or go to mass the • beautiful and myste rious mantilla.” The men are generally tall and handsome, while t[ieir dress is far more showy and elabo- | rate than that of the women. Hound a hrond brimmed hat is tied a parti-colored cord or, handkerchief; a shirt which is usually of the , finest linen displays on the breast a profusion of lace and embroidery; and over the shirt is | thrown a cotton or silk jacket of the gayest hues with frogs on the back and a regiment of hutlons on the breast and culls. To come next to the nether man—the pantaloons are ! split on the outer side from the hip to the foot with a row of buttons on either edge of the 1 openi ig which is laced together nearly down j to the knee; round the waist is a silken belt i which to say nothing of its value as an orna- j meat serves the utilitarian purpose of bracing up the inexpressibles; and underneath through the gaps aforesaid, there peer out n pair of full linen drawers and a boot of untanned i deer-skin the boot un the right leg invaria bly forming the scabbard lor that constant | companion, the knife. But our dashing friend - to he appreciated by the reader must be pla ced on horseback the quudrti|>ed being gene rally as gay as his master. The saddle which is encumbered with trappings rises both he- : lore and behind while at either side there , . swings a wooden shovel by way of stirrup.— j Thus uncomfortably deposited on his easy I chair and pair of foot stools the human half] of the centaur propels the whole machine by inenns of enormous spurs with rowels to match, setting min at defiance from head to foot, with- 1 1 out the help of any of your patent water-proofs ; To say nothing of the broad-brimmed hat. i his legs are protected by a pair of goat-skins. ! which nre attached to the suddle-bow, and ti ed round the waist while his body is covered jby a blanket of about eight feet by five, with ’ a hole in the centre for the head. This hlank ;et or scraps appears to he the vanity of the ! men what the bed is that of the women. It ; varies iri price from five dollars to a hundred sixty dollars being the ordinary rate for a fine ! one; it is made of cloth of the most showy co lors sometimes trimmed wilh velvet, and em broidered with gold. With such painted ami gild ed horsemen, anything like industry is of course oui of the question; and accordingly they spend their time from morning to night ]in billiard-playing and horse raring nggravn ’ ting the evils of idleness by ruinously heavy ■ bets. In a word the Californians are a happy , l ople possessing the means of physical plea sure to the full, and knowing no higher kind ‘ of enjoyment. Their happiness certainly is not such as an Englishman can covet though perhaps a Cal ilbmiun may with reason disparage much of what passes under the name of England the accumulating of wealth for its own sakr flic humoring of the raprires of fashion ami the embittering even of the luxuries of life by blen ; ded feelings of envy and pride. But whatev er may be the merits or demerits of California i happiness the good folks thrive upon it. They live long warding off the marks of age for a 1 period unusual even i t some less trying cli mates; and with regard to the women, this is the most remarkable, inasmuch as they arc subjected to the wearing effect of curly wed lock sometimes inarryi ig at thirteen und sel dom remaining single after sixteen. In the matter of good looks I Kith sexes merely give nature luir play scouting m well the cares as the toils of life. 1 ’ —Sole Hook of t!ir George Simpson. KJ* “ Ma “ said a little girl to her mother, “do the men want to get married ns much as the women do?” i TmL*'. >hat arc you talking about?” “ Why, ma, the women who come here are always talking about getting married; the men don’t do so.” The Ancient Me.leans, or Aztecs. HUMAN SACRIFICES. AND CANNIBALISM. Human sacrifice, were adopted by the Az tecs early in the 14th century, about 200 years before the Conquest. Rare at first, they be came more frequent with the wider extent of their empire; till at length almost every lesti v.il was closed with this cruel abomination. T'lit-m: religions rercmouii s were generally ar ranged in such a manner as to allbrd a type of the most prominent cireuinstances in the char acter or history of the Deity who was the ob ject of them. A slight example will suffice. One of the most important festivals was that in honor, of the god Tozcatlipoca whose rank was inferior to that of the Supreme Being. He was called “the soul of the world.” and supposed to have been its creator. He was depicted as a handsome man. endowed with perpetual youth. A year before the intended sacrifice a captive distinguished for his per sonal beauty, and without a blemish on his body was selected to represent this deity. Certain tutors took charge ofhim and i.nsruct ed him liow to perform liis new part with be coming grace and dignity. He was arrayed in a splendid dress, regaled with incense and with a profusion of sweet-scented flowers of | which tfie ancient Mexicans were ns food as the.ic descendants of the | resent day. When he went abroad, he wis attended by a train of i the royal pages and as he halted in’ the streets 1 to plav some favorite melody, the crowd pros trated themselves before him and did him homage as the representative of their good deity. In this way he led an easy luxuriant life till within a month of his sacrifice. Four beautiful girls bearing the names of the four pri icipal goddesses were then selected to share the honors of his bed ; and with them he continued to live in idle dalliance, feasted nt the banquets of the principal nobles, who paid him all the honors of a deity. At length the filial day of sacrifice arrived. The term of his short-lived glories was at an end. He was stripped of liis gaudy apparel, and hid adieu to the fair partners oi his revel ries. One of the royal barges transported him across tlie lake to a temple which rose on its margin about a league trom the city. Hith er the inhabitants of the rapitol flocked to wit ness the consummation of the ceremony. As the sad procession wound up the sides of the pyramid the unhappy victim threw away liis j gay chaplets of flowers, anil broke in pieces the musical instruments with which he had solaced the hours of captivity. On the summit he was received by six priests whose long and matted locks flowed disorderly over their sable robes, covered with hieroglyphic- crolls of mystic import. They led him to the sacrificial stone, a huge block of jasper, with its upper surlivce somewhat convex. On this the prisoner was stretched. Five priests secured his head and his limbs, while the sixth, clad in a scarlet mantle, em blematical of liis bloody office, dexterously o pened the breast of the wretched victim with a sharp razor of itztli. a volcanic substance, hard as flint and inserting his hand into the wound, tore out the palpitating heart! The minister of death first holding this toward the sun. an object of worship-tcoughout Annhu ttc. cast it at the feet of the deity, to whom the temple was devoted, while the multitudes below prostrated themselves in humble adora tion. The tragic story of this prisoner was expounded by the priests as the type of hu man destiny, brilliant in its commencement, too often closing in sorrow and disaster. Such was the form of human sacrifices usu ally practised by the Aztecs. It was the same that often met the indignant eyes of the Europeans in their progress through the coun try, and from the dreadful doom from which they themselves were not exempted. There were indeed some occasions when prelimina ry tortures, of the most exquisite kind—with which it is unnecessary to shock the reader— were inflicted, hut they always terminated with the bloody ceremony before described. It should be rein irked, however, that such tortures were not the spontaneous suggestions of cruelty, ns with the North American Indi ans; but were all rigorously prescribed in the Aztec ritual, and doubtless were often inflict ed with the same compunctious visitings which n devout familiar of the Holy Office might at times experience in executing its stern decrees. Women, as well us men. were some tim< s re served for sacrifice. On some occasions par ticularly in the Hensons of drought, nt (I e fes tival of the insatiable Tlailoe the god of min, children, for the most part infants, were otf r ed up. As they were home along in open lit ters dressed in their festal robes, and decked with the fresh blossoms of spring, they moved the hardest heart to pity, though their cries were drowned in the wild chant ofthe priests, who read in their tears a favorable augury for their petition. These innocent victims were generally bought by the priests, of parents who were poor but who stifled the voice of nature, probably less nt the suggestions of poverty than of a wretched superstition. The most loathsome part of tile story —the manner in which the body of the sacrificed captive was disposed of—remains yet to be told. It was delivered to the warrior who had taken him in battle, and by him, alter being dressed, was served up in an entertainment to his friends! This was not the coarse repast offainislieJciUinibals, but a banquet teeming with the delicious beverages and delicate vi ands, prepared with art and attended by both sexes, who. as we shall see hereafter, con ducted themselves with all the decorum of civilized life. Surely, never were refinement and the extreme of barbarism brought so close ly in contact with each other. Human sacrifices have been practised by many nations, not excepting the most polish ed nations of antiquity, but never by any on a scale to he compared with those of Anabo lic. The amount of victims immolated on its accursed ultars would stagger the faith of the most scrupulous believer. Scarcely any au thor pretends to estimate the yearly sacrifices throughout the empire Ht less than twenty thousand, and some carry the number as high us fifty thousand. On great occasions, ns the coronation of a king or the consecration of a temple, the num ber becomes still inorr appalling. At the ded ication of the great temple of Huitsilopotehli, in 11 Hi, the prisoners, who for some years hud been reserved lor the purpose, were drawn from all quarters of the capital. They were ranged in .files, forming a procession nearly two miles long. The ceremony consumed sev eral days, and seventy thousand captives nre said to have perished at the shrine of this ter rible deity! But who can believe that so nu merous u body would have suffered themselves to be led unresistingly like slice|to the slaugh ter? Or how could their remains, too great tor consumption in the ordinary whv, be dis posed of, without breeding a pestilence in the Capitol? Yet the event was of recent date, and is unequivocally attested by the best in formed historians. One fact may he consider ed certain; it was customary to preserve the skulls of the sacrificed in buildings appropria ted to the purpose. The companions of Cortes counted one hundred and sixty-eight thousand in one of the edifices. Without attempting a precise calculation, therefore, it is safe to con clude that thousands were yearly offered up, in the different cities es Anahuac on the bloody altars of Mexican divinities.— Prescott's ‘ Con quest of Mexico.” Who Nmells !ow f Oaa fish-woman’* stall ia/conl of Boylston market last season a few live lobsters’ were exposed for sale.

Slick, in his Fables, says few things resem ble each other more in natur’ than an old cun nin’ lawyer and a spider. He weaves his web in a corner, with no light behind to show the thread of his net. but in a shade like, and there he waits in his office to receive his visitors. A buzzin’ thoughtless fly. thinkin’ of nothin’ but his beautiful wings and well-made legs, and rather near-sighted withal comes stumblin’ heud over heels into the net. “ I beg your pardon ” says the fly. “ I real ly didn’t see this net work of yours; the weath er is foggy and the streets so confounded dark they ought to bum gas here all day. I’m a fraid I’ve done mischief.” “ Not at all ” says the spider, bowing. “I guess it’s alt my fault: I reckon I had ought to have hung a lampout; but pray don’t move, or you may do damage. Allow me to assist you.’’ And then he ties up one leg and then the other, and furls up both his wings and has him fast as Gibmhvr. ■ Now.” says the spider, -my good friend, (a phrase a feller alwavs uses when he’s agtf in’ to be tricky ) I’m afrecd you’ve hurt your self a considerable sum; I must bleed you.” Bleed me!” says the fly. excuse me; I’m obliged to you; I dont require it. ‘ Oh yes you do my dear friend,” and he gets ready for the operation. • If you dare do that says the fly. •’ I’ll knock you down, you scoundrel; and I’m a man that what 1 lay dawn I stand on.” You had better get up first, my good friend,” says the spider laugin’; “ you must be hied—you must pay all damage ; and bleeds him and bleeds him till he gasps for breath, and feels faintin’ cornin’ on. “ Let me go my good feFler.” says poor fly, “and I will pay you liberally.” “ Pay!” says the spider. “ You miserable unr.ircumcised wretch; you have nothing left to pay with; take that!” and he gives him the last dig, and lie is a gone coon—bled to death. Youth nud Old Aire. How henutiful and how touching the con trast! The shattered oak and the twining vine are the apt emblems. The one indicative of youth, freshness, and beauty—the other of age. decay, and the perils of existence. The rosy girl and the decripid grandmother—the one joyous as a bird, and bounding away like a winged creature —the other with a thin fal tering voice, and steps that totter onward to the grave. We have the two groat points of existence belore us—the beginning and the end—the morning and the evening—the “rosy dawn.” and the “dusky twilight.” How sunny are the visions of childhood ! how buoyant its ex pectations ! How green and glorious the fan cied paths beyond! Like fairy landscape, whose choicest charms live only to the eye of a distant observer; so with the radiant pict ures which youth sketekes upon the imagined pages of coming time. How few will bear the test of reality—the closer, keener glance of I steady observation! It is well that youth looks through an enchanted glass—that it sees i iq the distance the green hill tops and bright flowers, and not the pitfalls and thorny paths that chequer the ways of existence. And old age, must it look back for hope and joy? Oh. no! Even to the dullest, the dimest vision, there is to the Christian spirit a golden clime beyond; anew existence and new joys—and where the ashes and the fee bleness of age shnll give place to immortality, and all its holy and heavenly attributes. The Flowers and the Collin. Last week I was at a funeral. Two rooms were filled with friends, who had come to at tend the burial of a little girl. Her body lav in a coffin, on a marble table, in the middle of tlit* parlor. Her sweet lips were closed, and her pale hands, folded over her bosom, were as eold ns the marble. By the side of the coffin was a silver cup, such as children use. and in it was a bunch of fresh Hewers. I dare say it was Emily’s cup. Whenever her father and mother look at it, they will always think of their child, who used to drink out of it. It made me sorrowful to see those sweet flow ers by the side of a corpse. They were beau tiful but they were sad. Emily was like tliese flowers. She grew up, and was as promising and ns lovely as they. Now she is cut down and withered. In a few hours the flowers will be dead also. But here is the difference. The flowers will never bloom again. They are gone forever. That little body will live again. Christ takes care of it in the grave. I saw it put in the deep dark, cold vi.alt. Christ was buried in the same way in the sepulchre. But he rose again, and that is a sign that Emily will rise again, too. As surely as Jesus rose, so surely will he raise this dear little one. When these flowers die all is over with them. All their gay colors, all their sweet perfumes are lost. But all is not over with Emily. Her soul is not lost. It is with Christ. It is lietter to be with him, than with ns. The soul shall be joined to the body nt the resur rection. Then soul and body will be happy together to all eternity. This is what I thought on looking at the silver cup and flow ers. beside the coffin. — Youth's Penny Gazette. Revolctionary Anecdote. —Mr. 8., a merchant of Providence, R.

On one occasion, when she had just shipped a cargo of sugar, taken from a very rich prize, in rolling it into the yard, one ofthe hogsheads stove and a quan tity of sugar fell out. A poor woman in the neighborhood seeing the disaster, ran and fill ed her apron. Mr. B. from the loft of his store called out— "W'liat arc you doing there?” “Privateering, sir!” answered the poor wo man looking up. The retort was so forcible, that the mer chant immediately made her a present ofthe entire hogshead.
