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." VOL. XV.—NO. 149 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.
