ITALIAN AND AMERICAN WOMEN.
There is no country in the world where
woman is worshipped mid allowed to have her
own way as in America, mid yet there is no
country where site is so ungrateful for the place
and power she occupies. Huve you never in
Broadway, when the omnibus was full, stepped
out iujo the ruin lo let a lady take your place,
whiefc she most unhesitatingly did, aud with an
rndtfbrencc in her manner as if she considered
it the merest trifle in the world you had done 1
How cold and heartless bar “Thank ye,” if
she gave one! Dickens makes the same re
marks with regnrd to stage coaches; so does
Hamilton. Now do such a fuvor foran Italian
lady, and you would be rewarded with oue of
tlie sweetest smiles that ever brightened a hu
man countenance. I do not go on the princi
ple that a man must always expect a reward
for his good deeds; yet, when I hove h id my
kindest offices as a stranger received as if I was
almost suspected of making improper advances.
I have felt there was Itttle pleasure in being civil
The “Grnz'a, signore,” and smile with which
an Italian rewards the commonest civility,
would make tho plainest woman appear hand
some in the eyes of a foreigner.
They also become more easily animated, till
they mttke'it all sunlight around them. They
never tiro you with the monotonous aspect, but
yield in tone and look to the passing thought,
whether it be sad or mirthful; and then they
are so free from formality, and so sensitively
careful of your feelings. I shall never forgot
one of the first acquaintances I mada in Italy.
1 was at the Marquis of *3 one evetiidg,
conversing with 'Sbme gentlemen, when the
Marquis came up and said “Come, let mo in
troduce you to a beautiful lady;” indeed she
was tbe most beautiful Italian woman I have
ever seen. I declined, saying I did not under
stand the Italian language well enough to con
verse with so brilliant a creature. “ For you
know,” said I, “one wauts to say very clever
things iu such-a Case, and a blunder would be
crucifying.” “ Pooh, pooh,”- said lie, “ come
along;” and tatting me by the shoulders, led
me along, and forced me down into a chair by
her side saying, “Now talk.”" If she bad beeu
half as much -disconcerted as I was, I should
have blundered beyond redemption; but the
good tiutured laugh with which she regarded
the Marquis’s performance entirely restored my
confidence, and 1' stumbled along in the Italian
for half an hour, without her giving the least
indication, by look or word, that 1 did not speak
it With perfect propriety.
The same oa.ivete «f manner extends itself
everywhere. If you meet a beautiful peasant
girl, and bow to her, instead of resenting it as
au -insult, she shows a most brilliant set of
teeth, and laughs iu the most peifect good hu
mor. As I was once coming down from Mount
Vesuvius I passed an Italian lady with her
husband, who by their iuteddants, I took for
"ergons of distinction. I had an immense stick
m my hand, with which I had descended into
the crater. As I rode slowly by, she turned to
me in the pleasantest manner, and said, “Ha
un gran’ bastonc, signore.” [Voh have got a
large cane, sir.] 1 certainly did not respect
hoc the less for her “forwardness,” [civility,]
but, on the contrary, - felt l would have -gone
any length to have served her.—[Headleys
Letters from Italy.
A GAMESTER’S CLOSE OF LIFE.
The Churoh of England Quarterly Review
points a moral deduced from the life of a noto
rious gambler, knotyu in England as “Riley of
Bath,”- to all persons who are or may be indu
ced to engage in this imlavfful’and dishonora
ble profession. #iley was both accomplisited
and gifted, and he, for u time, lived a life of tbe
most gorgeous luxury aud extravagance. He
x?as 11(6 companion of’ sovereigns ; he squan
dered money with a profusion amounting to in
sanity, and won it by a good fortune that seem
ed connected with the supernatural. Nor was
he free from generous and daring sentiments.
He, on ohe occasion, risked an entire colossal
fortune on li>e hazard of the die against a Rus
sian estate, the slaves on' which he was desi
rous of restoring to freedom. Ho succeeded iu
his attempt, and accomplished his desiie. Sub
sequently he ra:i a brief course of dazzling
splendor; tie lived in palaces, continued to
play, became unlucky, and found fortune,
wealth and friends desert him. At length, the
once possessor of millions was seen wandering
through the streets of London, naked, fimishcd
and pennyless ; anil finally, he who had f asted
emperors a->d fit’ed sumptuously every day,
died of absolute starvation iu oue of the mis
erable alleys of th? great metropolis.
MALEBRANCHE.
Tire greatest mathematician of his Jay—
dreamt one night that lie had a leg of mutton
grown to his nose. Some philosophers, who
called the following morning to see him, found
him in the greatest distress of mind, being per
suaded ho find that terrible leg of mutton ap
pended to his proboscis. Every argument of
bis friends, every remedy of the faculty, failed to
remove the hallucination from the great philos
opher's mind; and his case was given up ae
hoiiL-less. However, one day a young surgeon
was introduced to Malebranehe, and .lie idM
him ihut his medical brethren, not knowingJit
cure for his disease, had endeavored to peisuade
him that he had a nose like those of his neigh
bors, but that l>e acknowledged the fact of the
presence of the leg of mutton. If however,
Malebranehe would submit to an operation, ho
would--stake his life on his success. Mule-
brnnchc joyfully accepted the proposal, and
the next day appeared the enterprising onera-
tdr, accompanied by assistants} carrying knives,
scalpels, saws; tenucula, ligatures, ami all tho
paraphernalia of the healing art; JMaVbrancho
was secured on- (he 'operaiing stool, and, after
employing every imaginable instrument, tho
operator skinned the go o< it father’s nose,- and
*Hon vi]Upo7 ntr rZ sn ImrH llmt- * r--* ----1-
him close his eyes. “Victory” cried tho sur
geon, “ I have got it off!” and lo and behold,
thcro»it‘was-indeed, before the delighted pa
tient’s eyes the very, moment he opeued them.
It is Due the operator had brought the leg of
mutton under his cloak ; bat* Malehrancho
was radically cured. ’■ '' "■ i ,; •’ '
The wild cattle of Texas—We find tjie fol*
lowing article, in lelation to the wild etude of
Texas, in a rece.it : number of thfc Houston
Tib graph: “ ><•
••The *©ulers who have recenly opened farm*
near the sources of tbe Sair Gabriel and Brushy,
find tho country wall -"Stocked with a singular
breed of wild cattle: Largo dioves of these
cattle are found n<A only on the S*n Gabriel,
Leona, and other tributaries of Little River,
but alio on the San Saba, the-Lland, and many
tributaries of the Upper-Colorado, far tboYo
the settlements. They differ in form, color,
and habits from nil the varieties of domestic
cuttle m Texas. They arp invariably of it daik
brown coltfr, with a slight tinge of dusky yellow
on the tip of the nose and the belly. Their
horns are remarkably lafg-’, and stand out
straight from the head. Although these cattle
are generally much larger than domestic cattle,
they are more fl.-et and nimble, and when pui-
»ued, often oust rip horses ihal’easily outrun
the buffalo; they seldom venture far out into tl.®
prairies, but are generally found in or near th®
forests that skirt the stream* 'in that seciiAnV
Their meat is of an excellent flavor, and :*
preferred by Hie settlers to the meat of the do
mestic cilttle. It is iaid that their fat is so hard
and compact tbfft it will not melt in (he hottest
days of summer; and the candles formed with
it are far superior to those that are-formed
with tho tallow of other cattle! • Some persona
have supposed that it is possible these catilo
are a distinct race, indigenous to America, and
the immense skeletons of a species of foss 1 ox
with straight horns, that are often found in tho
beds of the Brazos and Colorado, would seem
to strelighten this opinion. - Bnt as those cattle
are now found only in the viciuity of the' old
Mission; it is much -more -probable that they
are the descendants of the cattle introduced Ly
the early Spanish adventurers. Jtissaidihat
a species of wild cattle, differing from all tho
domestic breeds of-the Eastern continent, is
found in the S.uulwich islands; but it is well as
certained that this breed is derived-from tho
domestic cattle th’at were left on these islands
by Vancouver. These cattle ure so wdd that
they can only he caught alive by entrapping
tlicht in disguised pits. The celebrated botan
ist, Douglas, while on a' tour in cnc of those
islands, fell into one of these pits, and was gored
to death by a wild bull. who had been thus en
trapped. Severaf attempts have been made by
the settlers on the San Gabtiel to dcmeslicate
the cattle in tliat section, but they have thus
far been unsuccessful. As they are far superior
to the domestic cattle of the country, not only
in size, strength^ and agility, but also in tho
flavor of their meat and the density of-their fat,
they might, if once domesticated, beeome a
valuable acquisition to -the agricultulists of this
country.” •’ ' *-
A musical Bed.—The last ro*clty from
Germany is a musical bed which receives the
weary body and immediately “ laps it in Ely
sium.” It is an inven'ion of a mechanic in
Bohemia, and is so constructed that by-means
of hidden mechanism; -pressure upon thd'bod
causes • soft and gentle air of Aobei- to bo
playeJ which continues long ertongh to lull tho
most wakeful to sleep; At'tho head is a Clock,
the hand of which being placed at the hour the
sleeper wishes to rise, when the time arrives
the bed plays a march of Sponioni, with drums
and cymbals, and in short, with noise enough
to wake the seven sleepers. This unique b. d
becomes, therefore tie plus ultra for the wake
ful as well as the sluggish.
Diamond Mines in Brazil.-The greatest dia
mond in the world, probably* is that of'Sincura,
in the province of Bahia, Brazil. It was discov
ered about a year ago by a slave, who in
*20 days had collected 700 carats of diuraonds,
and had carried them a : Considerable distanco
to sell them. Being arrested, he obstinately
refused to tell where he got them, and wda
released.
They followed him several days, and at last
(bund ‘him gathering diamonds at‘the mine.
•The price of diamonds found at this mine,
varies from 670 to 1840 francs each. During
the mouths of May and June last, two English
packets took away from this mine 5,500,000
fiancs worth uf diamonds. Since then, it has
produced about 1450 carnts'per day. It ha*
beeu open only about a year, and has yielded
diiimouds to tbe amount of-mo re than 20,300,--
000 francs, which have all' gone to England,
France, Holland and Rio Janeiro. All the
lapidaties of Europe would not cut one half
the diamonds obtained from this mine; so that
a depreciation in value may he expected.^-
Beforc the discovery of this mine, all Brazil
scarcely produced, iu a whole year, as many
diamonds as ir produces now in a single month.
Stays— Lady Mary Wortley Montague says:
“One of the highest entertainments in Turkey,
is having you go to their baths. When I was
introduc' d to ouS, the lady of the house can e
to undress mo-“Another high compliment they
pay t0 3tra«jgers. ' After she had slipped off my
guWu sud saw my stays, she was much struc.k
at the sight of th<-m, and cried out to the other
ladies in tho bath: Come-hither, and see how
cruelly the poor English ladies are used by
their husbands; yon need not bu.tst, indeed, of
the superior liberties allowed' you, when they
lock you up thus in a box!”
The laying down of the wires underground
from tho electric telegraph of the Paris and
Rouen Railroad by the Ministry of the interior
is now completed. The minister luts already
made use of ibis mode of cominuoicaiinn, ami
the service is placed at the disposal uf all the
departments of the government wauling to send
