This is an age of womlfcrs rare, - Os vice and folly tpo ; Os notions that tb me seem queer, Os sights strange to the view. And yet of ail the silly things, Os this moat silly ago, Are those strange robes that Fashion flings O’er fop and fool and sage. - There’s one who sports a Shanghai coat, That liftngs below his knees ; With wlflskerslike a.Billy Goat, A fit re ort for (fens. > He struts;anil sw'ells with Moated pride, And thiuka “ note, who but me And acts ns though the world beside, Contained no Ape but he. And here’s another meets the view, Os rather doubtful gender; He wears* shawl, as ladies do, * ’ Around his -waist so slender. . What species of the race is he? Pray tell me if you ean ! “c Sure, sneli a looking thing can’t be One huudreth part a man. * ‘ And there’s t,he parson richly dressed In latest rut ami feather; With silk and satiu colored vest And boots of patent leather. His dickey is eo etifl'arni^high, (Without one inote or speck,) - He fears to turn his venal eye, Lest he should break his neck. ~ On Sunday morn ho struts the aisle Os God’s pure house of prayer; But thinks more of some fair one’s smile, Than yon poor mourner’s tear. N He reads a lengthy sermon o’er, In cold and measured tone. Preached by hi.in e saint in days of yore. Which now he calls his own. And there’s the maul, so blithe and gay, With nicely padded breast-; — T \\ ho thinks the men who gaze, will say, ‘iSee what a gloriouß cheat!” From herstnall waist a hoop hanga down, Even to her little feet; And thus equipped, Bhe gads the town, A most egregious cheat. Others agaiu, whose snowy breasts In native fullness sw ell, 8o fearful that no eve may’ rest, Where those sweet hillocks dwell, Must wear tiVir dresses hanging low Ailown their shoulders hare, flint every man who looks may kuuvv There is no cotton there. And there’s a little, artful girl, } o .So innocent v\ ithnl, She, too, must enter Fashion’s whirl. And danse nt rout uml ball. With arm around her mother pressed, Bhe cries a |id pleads and begs, _™ That as big sister slu.w her breast, Bbe ought to allow her legs. And thus it is ; feul Fashion's reign Has cursed this broad, green earth ; Nor modesty” he deemed again, The gem of female worth. V 1 1 ere ean the Christian's hope now rust. While Fashion pleads and begs, - For maidens to expose their hreiisls, And little gil ls their legs t |ilisall;uuous. ’ MANNERS OF THE CHINESE. “In Paying ca/ts, you tnkc off your lint, he keeps his cap oi>; you advance and offer a hearty shake rif the hand to your friend, hut* 1 lie, as he advances towards the host, closes lijs two lists, and shakes his own hands. ? ** At dinners (when you can afford It,) you commence with fish and soup, etc., and end with a dessert of wines and fruit; but lie just tnrns the tables, begiuing with fruits, wines, and ‘ biscuits, arid winding up with fish and soup. v At weddings, English ladies wear white ; Chineso Indies cannot wear white, hut other colors. Instead of young, blooming bride maids, trimmed in white, yuu may see old matrons rigged in black, attendant on tbc anxious bride-f and, for a honeymoon, the Inidc dispenses with a flight about the coun try to this And that spot and satisfies herself with being caged up for the first month in her husbands house; and there is no need of any announcement when she may be ‘at home.’ “At funerals, black is not worn,but white; and the dead are shrouded not in white, but in the gayest dresses. .- “ In amusements, it is not uncommon to see adults flying kites, and little urchins squatted on the ground, looking on ; and shuttle-cocks are battledor.ed gcnernly, not by the hand, but the heel. “ In books, the name, when writen outside, is inscribed on the bottom edge. Th© be ginning of the book is what you count the eud. The running title is on the edge of each leaf. The paging is near the bottom, not at the top corner. MarginJl notes are writteu at the ton, not at tlie foot of the page; and in reading, you proceed from right to left, reading each column from top to bottom. - “ Miscellaneous. —The surname annouced does not follow the Christain name, but pre cedes it. In the fond mother bolds up her lovely babe to her nose to smell it, as she would arose. ,In moonlight, no matter how bright, you bear yonr lighted lantnrii about with you. The seaman, in naming the points of the compass, says, ‘ East, west south north - ’ In launching a vessel, aliic is sent into the water side ways. ‘The horseman should njouut his horse on its right side!— The scholar, in reciting his lesson, - ’ does not face his master, but .turns his back upon him. In parties, do not wear light pumps, but as tbick-aold shoes as you can gat; and, for blacking they must, be w hitened with white lead, and only the edges of the sole.” THOMASVILLE, GEORGIA, NOVEMJJKIt 10, 1857. “ 56 BIBLE TWANG, Once upon a time an elderly Scotch wo man gave her grflndson tbe newspaper, tell ing him to rend aloud. The only reading the boy had been much in the way of hear ing was at the parish kirk, .and he began to read in the exact toq,e in which he liaa so of ten heard the minister read. The good lady was shocked at the boy’s profanity, and giv ing him a box on tbe ear, exclaimed, “What! dost tfiou read the newspaper-with the Bible twang?” Jilany a minister lias a twang or tone for the pulpit that lie never uses in con vefsation. If a, lawyer at the bar was to ad dress the jury nr the preaching ton?,’ lie would make them laugh when he wished them to weep. Preaching should be m the ordinary tone, such as used between man and man ; but many preachers pitch on a key so variant from their natural voice tht they would not be recognized unless tbey could be seen.—New York Observer. BLNGULAB, VERY. Tlie Bt. Louis Intelligencer, of the 7tli inst., (tbe day before that on which the citi zens of St. Louis were appalled by the ter rible shock of an earthquake,) had an article, in which, speaking of the money pauic, }t said: Will no growling earthquake give this great globe a shaking,that shall awaken men to a feeling of greater insecurity as to their lives tliau now afflicts them in regard to their money ? When the above extract was written we fancy the writer had little idea that his invo cation would be so quickly answered. As may be expected, the very singular coinci dence lias attracted mach attention, and been v the theme of universal conversation in St. v N Louis. ’ HOW PROPHETIC. - ■■■ o The following is an extract from a speech made by President. Buchanan, when in Con gress, on the Independent Treasury Bill : “ Tlie evils of the redundant paper circu lation arc manifest to every eye. It alter nately raises and sinks the Value of every man’s property. It makes a beggar of the man to-morrow who indulged in dreams of wealth to-day. It converts the business of Society into a mere lottery whilst those who distribute tlie prizes are irresponsible to the people. When the collapse comes— as come it must—it casts laborers out of employment, crushes manufactures and mer chants, and ruins thousands of honest and citizens.” AN EDITORIAL FIGHT AND SINGULAR DEATH. Out in Decat.ur, Illinois, a few weeks ago a young lawyer named T. A. Green, imag ined himself a poet, and sent his verses to Mr. Davis, editor of the Decatur Gazette, for publication. Mr. Davis criticised the poetry severely, and a coniroversy sprung up which resulted fn a challenge to the field from lawyer Green. As the challenge was more ridiculous than the poetry, the editor so treated it, when Mr. Green undertook the task of thrashing Mr. Davis in bis sanctum, and didn’t come off first best. Both gentle man were arrested for’ a disturbance of the peace,and Mr. Sheppard, (a gentleman who accompanied. Green to the Gazette office by request, withont knowing the object of the visit and witnessed the melee,) was called upon as a witness. Being a nervous man, the excitement of the occasion over came him, and after giving in his testimony, he fell down and immediately expired. The affair has caused a great deal of excimeut in DcdUur. SOMETHING NEW. ‘* %> . Among the curious things at Ihe State Agricultural Fair, rnay be seen cotton st el oil, cotton seed cake, and cotton seed meal. These arc tbe product of'Ootton seed, which has heretofore been considered worthless, in consequence of tlie supposed impossibility of hulling it but which by an ingenous invention, the property of the Union oil Company ol Providence, has at last been accomplished. The oil is found to be very rich and valuable for burning, manufacturing, and tbe general uses of otbeihaiils. The cake when ground to mi-si is used for feeding cows, in the same’ manner as linseed meal, for which purpose it is far preferable, as it does not give a paint// taste, and largely increases the quantity and richness of the milk.— Boston Trans. A POINTED BLOtf. • An invalid sent for a physician, and after detaining him for some time with a descrip tion of his pains, etc., he the* summed them up :. “ No, doctor, you have humbugged me long enough with your good for-nothing pills and worthless syrups; they don’t touch the real difficulty. 1 wish you to strike the cause of my ailment if it is in your power to reach it.” “It shall be done ’* said 1 the doctor; and, lifting bis-cane, he demolishsd a decan ter of gin that stood upon the sideboard. A CHANCE FOB AN In passing down one of our back streets, a few days ago, „wo ovcrbeaad a colloquy between a couple of darkies, and were just in time to hear the following s “ Now, look’er yer, Charlie, Jim moat be an lioncst nigger, and then agin lie moutent, but cf I was a chicken, and knowed dat lie was abont de yard, I tell yer wot, nigger I’d roost high, I wdnld.” We were satisfied on the point of Jim’s honesty, and, therefore pursued our pnward coni sc.—jl labile Advertiser.

Henry Ward Beeeher, dresoed in very common clothes, was studying human nature as exhibited in the high ways and bye-Wnys of New York. Lithe course of, bis philosophic peregrinations,'lie went into a mock auction shop. He stood awhile on on entering, and re4i*pted,lro.w any one emdd be so lost to all sense of truth aud honeßty as the auctioneer in question, endeavoring to palm off’ his worthless trash to tbe inexpe rienced in city ways, as good and valuable, and finally the auctioneer called out; “ Mr. Beecher, why don't you feidf” He was greatly astonished, as wo can well imagine, nt finding himself known in this place, and ns he had supposed, in hi* purposely careless dress. He immediately left, and started for the rosidenco of one of tbe members of tbe church in the neighborhood, and requested him, as an a?t of kindness, to go down aud enquire of that person who had sold himself to satan for the love of gain, bow it was that he knew him in his disguise. The neighbor kindly consented,and on enteriug the “ i’eter Funk” shop he addressed the auctioneer : “ How is it that you know Henry Ward Beecher so well as to be able to recognize him in bis disgoisftT” *• llow do I know him ? / have been a prominent member of his congregation for the Inst fvc years, and own the fj'lh pete from the J/Ant.” % J A ‘CH AT A DEER HUNT. A city buck of the Broadway order went in theoonntrv, and they invited film to In deer hunt. He had seen the antlers of’a deer, and bad a lively notion of venison, but knew -about as little of tbe live auimala afi he did about the gun they gave him. They placed him where the deer was to pass, and told him to fire as soon as he%aw him. He stood and trembled. Boon be tbe bay ihg of the hounds, and before long there was a Cracking of hushes, aud a magnificent deer rushed ?>y with immense antlers and tail erect. The city buck stood still and trembled. The huntsmen came up, and ask ed him why lie did not shoot? Hfs lips trembled, * I saw nothing bat the devil ge by with an arm chair on his head, aud bis handkerchief sticking out behind.

My bclnv-sd breetherlng, the tett says “they shftli gnaw a file.” It don't say they may bht they shall: Aittftibtf fhtfßS'f rrtdt'fli one kind of file.
