The “Women of America.” The female half of American society owes a debt -r-.f some sort, and a lieavy one, to the New York Express for the follow ing outburst in the shape, of a leHectinu drawn from the just concluded visit of the Piiuce of W ales and suite.—lx says : One thing is determined by the recent, visits to this country of Princes from the East and from the West ot the Old World. American women have worse manners than the men. it was the women who at Washington intruded upon diplomatic re ceptions, anil sat upon the mantles at the President’s mansion; it was the women who insisted upon going to a ball at Gcu. Cass’s house, so that the venerable ftec retaiv declared he dared lint give a dinner or a uialinue. It was the women who thrust their notes upon Tommy. So, also, it wac tiie woman who jostled and crowded upon the Piiuce at the bail at the Acade my, it was the women who got upon the seats in Trinity church to look at him, not withstanding the clergyman had fitst re quested them not to do so. These are wo men of all grades, not only such ns might ire supposed ignorant of good breeding, but •such at \Voulii ud invited to tiie balls of the Secretary of Oiate, or could gft access to the Academy of Music last Friday. They were alike in Washington and New i York : they have displayed this behavior I he! re now, at the crowded operatic inati- ; uees; they do so iu the omnibuses and in I the railway can*; whore they demand the | places of the men, and never dream of i thanking them, At the North and tiouth, i the East, and West, the rule is that Ameri- I can woiheti are rude—the contrary is the i e. I Country ?leetin Talk. An llliu>.is editor, who sometimes has an “attack of phonography,” recently at <eiide<i a country uieetiu’ when lie to *k down the different topics of conversation. “Vote for Lovejoy !’’ exclaimed a poli tical aspirant, iuoiguantly, “I’d as sioti vote tor Win.

Howto do up S/iirt Bosoms. —We often bear ladies express a desire to know bow the gloss is produced on new linen bosoms; &c., and in order to gratify them subjoin the following recipe:—Take two ounces of white gum arabic powder, put it in a pitch er and pour on a pint or more ol boiling water, according |o the strength you de sire ; let it stand all night and in tlie mor ning pour it carefully Iroin the dregs into a clean bottle and c.>rk it for use. A ta ble-spoonful oftliisguin water, stirred into pint of starch, will trife lawns, either white or colored u look ol newness to which noth ing else can restore them after they have been washed. . . How to preserve Health.— Medicine will never remedy bad habits. It is utteily futile to think of living in gluttony, intem perance and every excess, and keeping the body in health by medicine. Indul gence of the appetite, indiscriminate dosing and drugging have mined the health and destroyed the lives of more persons than famine or pestilence. If you w ill take advice, you will become regular in your habits, eat and drink • only wliolesoin things, sleep on a mattress, and retire and rise very regularly. Make a free use of water to purify'the skin, and when sick take, counsel of thebestphysicatryoii know and follow nature- .
