CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL.
JlLsctllar.ii.
Mas. Swisshelm on Dancing. —The follow
ing remarks from the pen of Mrs. Swisshelm
contain enough truth to justify their re-pub
lication and suggest enough more to awaken
profitable reflection. Mrs. S. says some very
sensible things : ♦
“One curious fact we have observed with
regard to dancing. This is, the more deeply
a church or individual professor is steeped in
the spirit of money grabbing, intemperance or
Sabbath-breaking, the greater is their abhor
rence of dancing. This appears to be a kind of
convenient scapegoat on which the sins of the
congregation are laid, that they may be borne
into the wilderness. Show us a rich deacon’s
wife who will haggle with a widow to get
washing done for twelve and a half cents a
dozen, and then pay her in trade, or give her
two dimes and four coppers for twenty-five
cents, and we will show you one who will
take a spasm < ver the iniquities of a cotillion.
We never knew the rule to fail, and have
watched its workings for so long that when
ever any one begins a lecture on dancing, we
suspect him or her of being a worshipper of
mammon. Old Christian in his longjourney
danced for joy, but the man with the muck
rake was to busy. Nothing appears better
calculated to contend with the hard, money
loving spirit of our age than music and dan
cing. It tends to melt the hard crust which
the dust of ledgers forms around the hearts of
our people, and there is noplace to which we
should go with a subscription paper for a
charitable object with more hope ot success,
than a social party where all were dancing
to the music of two good violins and a trom
bone.”
Labor. —l see the man who scorns honest
labor. Who clothes him with fine linnen,
and bids him fare sumptuously every day ?
On his back is the fieece of the peasant's
sheep, sheared by the peasant’s strong hand,
whitened in the clear flow of the mountain
stream, and spun by hands, if not as white,
more true and stainless than the queen’s !
Not a rag of all that curiously wrought col
lored end fashioned gear, which defends him
from the keen freat, the scorch of summer
and givis him grace in the eye of beauty—
not a single rag is there, but rises up in judg
ment and gives him back scorn for scorn.
Fool and drone ! He has mistaken the true
altitude of man—the heart beat of the great
univeise itself. Annul that labor which he
scorns, and he stands amid these elements
of nature nude as he was born. The polished
hide which has felt the busy touch of many
hands, over which eyes have tired and hearts
grown faint, crumbles from his shiftless feet
the bright lair cloth in its thousand forms
vanishes from his shrinking limbs—and the
great inheritance of brick and mortar, and
broad fruitful lands, sprung ftorn the brain of
genius and hand of toil, and bequeathed to
that miserable belier of humanity by hard
honest thrift, fly back into their wilderness
being, and the proud fool-occup/knt stands
possessionless and alone ! Who now will
minister to his wants, who kindle even on the
redest cabin hearth a fire to stay the p tiless
finger of the storm ? All charhable nature
moulds not herself into palaces and ingots,
and slaves rise not at thc{ beck of imperious
will. Ah, thou man who scorned honest
labor, look around and see that There is yet
some dignity and beauty in toll. That she i
has compassed some ocean*, bridged rivers,
delved >n mines, and lounded empires and
practical religions in defiance of thy taunt.
Her giant will is busied with loftier thought ;
than scorning thee as thou deservest ! Let
her reproof and thy scourge be that thou art j
contemned by God and man. By God, who j
scorned not to build for himself a universe, /
and clothe himself shout with angles and ho
vering glories—by man, proud of his power to
exalt the image and imitate the e amples of
God.— Carlos D. Stuart .
Experiments in Navigation.— Mr. Wat
son, a gentleman of fortune, residing in Man
chester, England, has lately patented apl-n
for a revolving sail ship, a model of which has
been exhibited on the Mersey. The promi
nent feature of the invention consists in the
introduction of a set of sixteen revolving
sails, similar in 6hape to the fans of a wind
mill. These sails are elevated cna wheel and
attached to a spindle. As soon as the wind
touches the sails, they instantly set the spiu
dle in motion, when, by a simple piece of ma
chinery, a couple of paddles are propelled.
The objects attained by the contrivances are,
increased speed and the advantage of sailing
against a head wind. Os another invention
in which submerged paddles are used, the
discoveiy being due to Mr. Vint, of Colches
ter, an account has previously been given.
Both are claimed to be entirely successful.
American Ribbons. —Within the present
year the manufacture of silk ribbons has been
commenced at West Newton, Mass., being
the first experiment of the kind, on a large
scale, ever made in this country. At first four
loomß were put in operation, each loom weav
ing twelve pieces of ribbon at the same time.
The business having proved quite profitable,
six more looms are to be added. Steam pow
er is used to propel the machinery. The rib
bons which have been made, have proved, for
color and beauty, equal to any which are im
ported. The ladies who have examined them,
say that they are preferable to those import'
ed, for the reason that the colors are more du
rable, and the fabric mere firm.
Female Beauty.— Powers, in a letter to a
friend, says, with a satirical humor, of his fa
vorite work, “Eve is an old fashioned body,
and not so well formed and attractive aB her
grand daughters, at least some of them, She
wears be' hair in a natural and most primitive
manner, drawn back from the temples, and
hanging loose behind, thus exposing those
very ugly features in woman. Her waist is
quite too large for our modern notions of
beauty, and her feet, ihey are so very broad
and large ! And did ever one see such long
toes! they have never been wedged into form
by the nice and pretty little shoes worn by
her lovely descendants. But Eve is very stiff
and unyielding in her disposition; she will
not allow her waist to be reduced by banda
ging, because she is far more comfortable aa
she is, and beside she has some regard for her
health, which might suffer from such restraints
upon her lungs, heart, liver, &0., &c. I could
never prevail upon her to wear modern shoes,
for she dreads corns, which, she says, are nei
ther convenient nor ornamental. But some
allowance ought to be made for these crude
notions of hers, foui ded ss they are in the
prejudices and absurdities of primitive days.
Taking all these things into consideration, I
think it best that she should not be exhibited,
as it might subject me to censure, and severe
criticisms, and, these too, without pecuniary
award."

Witchcraft if Women.
I want to tell you a secret. The way to
make yourself pleasing to others is to show
that you care for them; The whole world ia
like the Miller at Mansfield, “who cares for
nobody—no not he, —because nobody cared
for him.” And the whole world will serve
you 60, if you give them the same cause.
Let every one therefore, see that you do
care for them, by showing them what
Sterne so happily calls, “the small, sweet
courtesies in which there is no parade, whose
voice is so still to tease, and which manifest
themselves by tender and Affectionate looks,
and little acts and attention—giving others
the preference in every little enjoyment at the
table, in the field walking, sitting or standing.
This is the spirit that gives to your time of
life, and to your sex their sweetest charms.
It constitutes the sum total of all the witch
craft of woman. Let the world see that
your first C3re is for yourself, and you
will read the solitude of the upas tree around
you, in the same way. by the emanation of a
poison which kills all the juice of affection in
itsneighborhoo J. Such a girl may be admir
ed for her understanding ar.d accomplishment,
but she will never be beloved. The seed of
•ove can never grow but under the warm
and gentle influence of kind feelings
and affectionate manners. Vivacity goes a
great way in yi ung persons. It calls atten
tion to hir who di plays if; and if it then be
found associated with a generous sensibility;
its execution is iiresistabla. On the contrary,
if it be found in alliance with a cold, haughty,
selfish heart, it produces no further effect
except an adverse one. Attend to this my
daughter. It flows.from a heart tha*. feels for
you all a parent can feel, and not without
the hope which constitutes the parent’s high
est happiness. May God protect and bless
you.— William IVerl to his daughter.
Game Fowls vs. the Large Breeds
Mr Editor :—I have heard and read much that
has been said concerning the different breeds
of fowls, some saying that the large foreign
varieties consume no more food than our com
mon, barn door fowls. I would say, two
years ago I had twelve Game fowls, one male
and eleven female; 1 then purchased three
Cochin China and three Chittagong fowls, and
every morning I gave one quart of corn to
my twelve English Game fowls, and the same
quantity to the other six; the result was that
the six fowls ate their’s up clean, when the
Game fowls would leave about a gill. I gave
three quarts of corn daily to the eighteen fowls,
one pint to each lot atmoon. I wish to be un
derstood. that I kept the two large breeds sep
arate, calling the six fowls one lot; the reader
will see that I put the Game fowls on a level
i w 'th the barn door fowls for consuming food.
! Fifteen years ago, I kept the common fowls,
and have kept the Game fowls for 20 years,
and I never saw any difference in the expense
for food of the two last named breeds. My
Game hens lay 30 to 35 eggs at a litter, and as
many litters arf the large breeds do, and all the
difference that I can see is that they, lay 45 to
50 eggs a litter, bull contend theQfright to lay
two eggs a day to pay the extnTexpense of
keeping; and as to the quality of their flesh, they
are far inferior to the Game (owl; my fowls
have proved good layers, good sitters, and care
ful mothers —Boston Cultivator.
New Use for Ice. —The Scientific men of
France are at present speculating on a recent
instance of a young man brought to life,
after being frozen up eleven months ori
the Alps. It has given rise to a levived
belief in the theory that life can be sus
pended at pleasure, and criminals are a
bout to be demanded of the Government
to be frozen on experiment.. The reader will
already have inferred what a relief this offers
to such unhappy ladies as find themselves not
contemporary with the Leurts they sigh to
win. They have on to be icc’d till overtaken.
We should ndd> however, that the above is
by no mesnss a joke, 'lhe blood of a living
man was infused into the veins of the frozen
youth, and he moved and spoke. The expe
riment was afterwards tried on a hare, frozen
for the purpose, with complete success.
The Home Journal suggests the idea of put
ting the discovery into practical use, that—is
put out SSOO at interest, have yourself pack
ed in ice, and stay frozen, with suspended
life, till it amounts to a fortune.
State Liabilities—ln reply to a resolution
adopted by the Senate, requesting the committee
on Finance to report the amount due and out
standing against the State on account of
Bonds issued on account of the State Road
and Central Bank—amount due for iron and
other expenditures to be assumed by the State
—on account of the deficiency of assets of the
Central Bank, also to the creditors of the
Bank of Darien, and all other liabilites of the
State, Air. Bethune, chairman of that cotu
niitte, made a full report ill answer thereto, to
the Senate on Wednesday last.
The report after having given various details
on the different items, concludes as follows, as
the result of the investigation of the oouiniitee,
to wit:
