How to get into Good Society.
The Editor of the New York Mirror—ono of
the exclusives, we suppose—gives the following
hints on.
A New Feature lit Uprm Terdom.—There
was a large hall given at the private bouse of a
wealthy hatter last eveiling, to which, we learn,
some 800 iuvitplions wore cent out This is pro
bably a little larger number than has ever been
extended on any similar occasion, and nfiords
encouraging proof of the elasticity ol onr fashion
able circles, which tire capable of ••indefinite ex
pansion.” It is reported, with how moch truth we
dp not say, that certain diddiers; ambitious ofeo-
cialdistinction, have adopted: the following plan
of entering the magic circle nffusblonablt Parvenu-
dom. For instance: Mrs. Jones announces a ball,
and for weeks all Janonicadom is on tbe qui trice-
Mr. Shooks, a bachelor without associations, ex
cept those ofthe most humble character, is anxious
to attend—to seo' nml to be seen—among the
choice selections ot Mrs. Jones’s drawing room.
But how to get there is tbe problem.
A lackly thought strikes him—and that is, to
bribe Brown, vvbodirects the invitations,to address
one to him. It is done, and Snooks is a made man,
for one night, nt least. But the same Brown is
employed by nil the fathioivshV) hall givers ofthe
season; nnd a email done „ the shape of “bri
bery aud corruption”—say a hundred dollars—
will seenre Snooks an entree to all the tip-top soi
rees of the season.
And so he mingles as a sort of social, “dead head
among the parrenue* of Upperteniiiim, who, of
course, are not supposed to be acquainted with one
tenth of their guests j and who seldom penetrate
beyond the cut of tbe coat, or the altitude of the
shirt collar. This is indeed a great country ; aud
New York is the very paradise of Suookies.
onr minds to see the younger sister after the
elder. Accordingly, she followed in the same
path with slower step, and with a puiience that
equalled the other’s fortitude, t h„ V£ , sa ; ( j t ] Klt
was rergious, aud It was by leaning on those
Christian doctrines iu which she firmly believed
that she found support through her mast painful
journey. I witness, their efficacy in her latest
hour aud greatest trial, and must bear my testimo
ny. to the calm .triumph with which they brought
her through., She. died May 2S, 18 ill. What
more.Shall, I soy about them f I cannot and need
not say much more. . In externals, they were toe
unobtrusive ; a perfectly secluded life gave tnem
retiring manners and habits.”

’Yhc Writer of June Eyre nncl Iter Sisters.
A new edition of Wutbering Heights and Agnes
Grey, jnst published in London, has a biographi
cal account of the writers of those books, by tbe
author of Jane Eyre. It seems that the Bells are
three sisters, two of whom are now dead. The
snrviver describes their home as—
“ A village parsonage, among the hills, border
ing Yorkshire and Lancashire. The scenery of
these bills is not grand—it is not romantic) it is
scarcely striking. Long low moors, dark, with
heath, shut in little valleys, where a stream wa
ters, here and there, a fringe of stunted copse.
Mills and scattered cottages chase romance from
these valleys; it is only higher up. deep in among
tbe ridges of the moors, that imagination can find
rest for the sole of her foot; and even if she finds
it there, she must be a solitude-loving rsven—no
gentle dove, if she demand beauty to inspire
her, she must bring it inborn; these moors nre
too stern to yield any product so delicate. The
eye of tbe gazer must itself brim with a •• purple
light,” intense enough to perpetuate the brief
flower-flush of August on tne heather, or the rare
sunset smile of June; outof his heart most well
the freshness that in later spring and early sum
mer brightens tbe bracken, nurtures the moss, and
cherishes the atarry flowers that spangle for a few
weeks the pasture of tbe moor-sheep. Unless
that light and freshness nre innate and self-sus
tained, the drear prospect of a Yorkshire moor
will be found ns barren or poetic ns of agricultu
ral interest: where the love of wild nature is
strong, the locality will perhaps be clung to with
the mure passionate constancy, because from the
hill-lover’s self comes half its charm.”
Thus much of the scene; now as to the story
of the authorship of these singular books:
“ About five years agd, my two sisters and my
self. after a somewhat prolonged period of sepa
ration. found ourselves re-united and at home.
Resident in a remote district, where education
had made little progress, and where, consequent
ly, there was uo inducement to seek social inter
course beyond bur own domestic circle, we were
wholly dependent on ourselves, and each other,
on books nnd study, for the enjoyments and occu
pations of life. * * * One day, in the autumn
of 1845. 1 accidentally lighted on a MS volume of
verBe iu my sister Emily's hand-whiting. Of
course, I was not snrprised, knowing that she
could nnd did write verses. I looked it over, aud
something more than surprise seized me—-a deep
enarirtinu *!:* * tbeso »,n,wii mammon effusions,
nor nt all like the poetry women generally write.
* * Meantime, my young sister quietly pro
duced some of her own composition, intimating
that since Emily’s tiad-given me pleasure, T might
like to look at hers. I could uot but be a partial
jnJge. yet I thought that these verses too had a
sweet sincere pathos of their own. We had very
early cherished the dream of one day becoming
authors. This dream, never relinquished even
when distance divided and absorbing tasks occu
pied ns, now suddenly acquired streuhlll,and con
sistency; it took the character of a resolve. We
agreed to arrange a small selection of our poems,
and, if possible, get them printed. Averse to
personal publicity, we veiled our own name un
der those of Currer. Ellis, and Acton Bell; tbe
ambiguous choice being dictated by a sort of con
scientious scruple at assuming Christian names
positively masculine, while we did not like to de
clare ourselves women, became—without at that
time suspecting that onr mode of writing nnd
tbinkiug was not w-bat is called “ feminine”—
we had a vague impression that nuthnresses are
liable to be looked oil vi-ith prejudice; we had no
ticed how critics sometimes use for tlieir chas-
tisemrnt tho weapon of personality, and for their
reward, a flattery, which is not true praise. The
bringing out of onr little book was hard work.
* * III success failed to crush us : the mere ef
fort to succeed had given a wonderful zest to ex
istence; it most he pursued. We each set to
work on a prose tale; Ellis Bell produced

Who are IHc Friends oftlic Union 1
We mean, who ere the friends of the Union
which was formed by the sagesaud patriots of 791
not any sort of n Union which Abolitionists may
devise, andaubmissionistsgloryfy, notsuchn Union
as that.which connects down trodden Ireland to
Great Britain—uot a Union like that of previntes
to a splendid government, which rules and ruin-
at the discretion ofan unscrupulous majority, un
restrained hy writtencouslitutious—but the Union,
with checks and balances,of independent sovereign
Slates, formed on tbe principles of equal burdens
and equal benefits. . .This is the sort of a Union
which oiirforcfartbers forme nd we wish l«> con
sider for a moment, who ire ir, t-d friends. Let
us briefly submit undeniable facts to the condiil
render. ' , *
The admission of California, “undef all the cir
cumstances of its application (as declared by sen
ators Footo and Davis and our Representative)
was the Wilmot Proviso in another form.” Now,
they counot be the friends ofthe Union, who, bq
far Irqm resisting, exhort tame submission to a
measure so violative of the Constitution which is
the written agreement Upon which the Stales be
came united. , ...
Again: Congress at tho Inst sesrion, passed a
law to abolish the slave trade iu the District of Co
lumbia. _ Tbo bill emancipates n slave, if his own
er brings him iu the District, nnd keeps hint there,
to remove him for sale elsewhere. This is a dan
gerous precedent for interfering with tho institu
tion of slavery; is an, offensive discrimination
against the holders of this kind of property; and
it is a gross exercise of power not conferred by tbo
Constitution. Hence he is not a friend of the U-
niou on tile tertiis of that instrument, who sanc
tions and applauds this odious enactment.
Again: Many of the ablest jurists ofthe conn-
try, North aud South, and the entire North, con
tend Rial tlie .Mexican laws, prohibiting slavery in
tne conquered territories ere still in force; hut,
notwithstanding this, the, r-nti slavery majority,
who control the Governmec, refused to repeal
those laws, and thus virtually prohibited Southern
meu from settling iu the territories with their slave
property, and detyed ilia equality of right wh.iyh
they should ,claim from n Government that was
established “to promote,justice.” Now, there ore
n party in the South, who not only acquisce,. in.
buteven torture their ingenuity to invent arguments
for this wautott disregard of the rights of the slave
holder. Is jt not the veriest absurdity to claim
this party as frieudsnf a Constitutional Union.
It, then, the submission leaders, who thus see
with approbating the Constitution stabbed in its
most vital parts to gratify the fiendish demands.of
the Abolitionists, declare that such iniquitous, pro
ceedings are proper, and denounce those as “trai
tors” who do not pursue a similar reprehcnsiijlo
course—if this recreant party are not friends of the
Union—we have, described the Union formed, by
our Revolutionary sires—who are its friends f . The
answer is plain: Its friends are they who demand
the observance of the Constitution—who would not
see that sacred instrument misconstrued and tram
pled upon;and who, when it bad been violated;
would hasten to repair its injuries aud avert -tho
evils which must result from its desecration.—Mis-

and Currer Bell also wrote a narrative iu one
volume. These MSS were perseveringly obtru
ded upon various publishers for the space of a
year and n half; usually, their late was an igno
minious and abrupt dismissal. At last, ' Wulher-
ing Heights ’ and ‘ Agnes Grey ’ were accepted,
ou terms some what impoverishing to the two au
thors.'*
The MSS of a one volumo tale by Currer Bell,
had been thought by Messrs. Smith & Elder so
full of promise, that its writer was asked for a
lunger Story in a more saleable form.
“I was then just completing'Jane Eyre,’at
which Iliad been working while the one volume
tale was plodding its weqry round ill Loudon ; io
three weeks I seut it off; friendly sod skillful
hands took it in. This was iu the commencement
of September, 1840; it came out before the close
of October following, while * Wutbering Heigtlis ’
and ‘Agnes Grey.’ tny sisters ’ works, winch had
olreaJy been in the press for months still lingered
under a different management. They appeared
at lust. Critics Tailed to do them justice.”
The narrative may be best concluded in the
writer’s own words:
Neither Ellis uor Acton allowed herself fora
moment to sink undet want of euconragement;
energy uerved the one, and endurance upheld tbe
other. They were both prepared to try again t I
would fain think that hope nod the sense of power
was yet strong within them. _ But a greet change
approached ; affliction came in that sbap'o which
to anticipate is dread ; to look back on grief. In
the very beat and burden of theday, the laborers
failed over tlieir work. Mt sister Emily first de
clined. Tbe details of her illness nre deep-brand
ed in tny memory, but to dwell on them, either iu
thought or narrative, is uot in my power. Never
in all her life bud she lingered Over any task that
lay before her, mid she did not Huger uow. She
sank rapidly. She made baste to leave ns. Yet,
while physically she perished, mentally she grew
stronger than we had yet known her. Day by
day, when I saw with what a front she met suf
fering. 1 looked on her with nn anguish of wonder
and love. I have seen nothing like.it! but,^ in
deed, I have never seen her parallel in anything.
Stronger Hum man, simpler than a child, her na-
ture Stood alone. Tho awful poiut was, that,
while full of truth for others, ou herself she hud
no pity; the spirit was inexorable to the flesh;
from the trembling hand, tbo unnerved limbs, the
faded eyes,tlie s.-ime service was executed as they
had reudered in health. To stand by and witness
this, and not dare to remonstrate, was n pain no
words enu render. Two crnel months of hope
nnd fear passed painfully by, and the day earnest
last when the terrors and pains of death were to
be undergone by this treasure, which had grown
dearer aud dearer to our hearts as it wasted before
our eyes. Towards the decline of that day we
had nothing of Emily but her mortal remains ns
consumption left them. Sho died December 19,
1848. We thought this enough; but wo were ut
terly and presumptuously wrong. She was not
buried era Anno fell ill. She had not boon com
mitted to the grave u fort
distinct intimation: that it was uteebsary to prepare
The Lndiea of Cuiliz.
There is nothing boisterous or ttnfeniinine Cli
the part of Cadiz’s daughters, their loveliness,
though wanting that subdued tone. We deem es
sential to polished manners, is graceful and. becom
ing in its flights; it is the overflew of spirits
which, like tbe beautiful wild flower of their own
land, are stirred by the .lightest breath of air, and;
like them.'give forth *'pleasant rustle when agi
tated. At tbe same time, tbe traveller, ir lie ijmv-
indulged iu exaggerated notions of Spanish beauty,
will here be taught in what itcousists. Probably
his first impression will be one of disappointment;
nnd even he who has dra wu. hi his imagination, a
less glowing picture of its charms, wifi find the
reality fall short of bis ideal sketch. If ho lias
kept out of the pure red and white, and the eye
of a heavenly hide that mark tbe henntv of a north
ern sky, he has judged rightly; but after supply
ing their place with the pale r.r dusky, cheek f>f it
southern clime, nnd its eye, which, whether it be
wild or gentle, flashing or languid, is always dark;
he will need to use his pencil with cantjon. Ill
truth, the Spanish dame, as regards regularity, of
of feature, and those charms which form tieauty
of countenance, must yield tbe palm to tbe dames
of other nations; her attractions centre to her
dark glossy hair and in those eloquent eyes, that
unite with an over varying play of expression in
making her wobdrously fascinating. In beauty
of form, however, she reigns alone ; nothing could
be more symmetrical or more exquisitely rounded,
than the shapes of the Cnzitarian belles, ns they
glided or floated—anything but walked—through
the mazes of the gay crowd on thb promenade;
indeed, the Andalusian grace is proverbial.,iu
Spain; and the traveller most confess that iie has
stood upon Andalusian alatneda. What it is can
hardly be described by words; it is beyond the
power of language to describe those slow alia
surpassingly graceful movements which accom
pany every step of tbe Andaluzo ; her every atti
tude is so flowing, and nt the same lime so unfor
ced that she seems upborne hy some invisible
power that render her independent to the classi
cally-moulded foot she pressed so lightly oil the
ground.— Cities and Wilis of Andelusia.
The Or oat Fair.
Tbe London-Times solemnly, and seasonably
too, we think, cadis upon the cnizens of London Id
set their houses in order for the reception of visitor*
to tbe Fair. The number out of tho Kingdom, it
supposes, may reach one million. T,en thousand
are to be there from Vienna alone ; and of the
twenty eight millions'composing tbe British Realm;
Loud, u excepted, one million will no doubt be pit
band. The Times thinks that self-iutercst will taka
care of the feeding and sleeping, nnd it warns
strangers in advance of long bills and extra foes.
It is anxious, however, thnl something.should lie
done on the occasion creditable fp the nation.
Like Caleb Balderstouo iu \Yaltor Scott’s tale, it is
concerned for the honor of the fimily, and would
gladly see the dirt scoured off the walls before tho
arrival of guests. To others it leaves the eating,
and sleeping, and washing arrangements; but
there are some points connected with the “sights
of London,” it says. “ which nre disgracefo' to iij
as a nation, and sadly cu'colated to lowcrsts iu tho
opinion of our foreign visitors.”
The Times in good spirit invokes o kind recep:
tion fqg strangers, ami has the following bit at the
petty exactions of keepers of 8t. Paul* and West
minster Abbey, and their bands of ihlpbrtuuato
vergers:
“The Dean nnd Chapter of Wes'miuster con-
duct their busiucss at present exactly after tho
fashion of Madame Toasaud. At the establish
ment of this lady. after the first demand is satis
fied. should the visitor be anxious to inspect the
Chamber of Horrors, where are to be seen • Murid
.Manning and George Frederick Manning, taken
from life at their trial,’ ‘George Bloomfield Rush,
with models of Stanfield Hall and Potash Farm,'
&c.. He mnst be prepared with his” extra sixpense.
So at Westminster Abbey you are permitted to
gaze your fill at certain tombs not included its the
tariff, but should,the visitor wish to extern! hi»
walk round the more curious portion of the Ab
bey, tbe Dean and Chapter meet him, Tassaud-
wise, to exact the extra fee. If the cnatron of
exacting lees for admission to any part ol West
minster Abbey or St. Paul’s be continued during
the ensuing spring, it will boa scandal to the Dean
and Chapter of either cathedral, aind a disgrace
to the whole nation. These dignitaries can sure
ly sparefroin tlieir revenues the beggni :y »um nec-
essary to pay the few vergers who may ho requir
ed for the maintenance ol order.”
