People who complain of the extravagance of our day in womon's dress, often talk of the economy of our grandmothers. Let them look at this bill of lady's wardrobe in 1719, given in Oodey's Lady's Book. "A smock of cambric hoi land 2 2; a mar-sellles quilted petticoat 3 6s; a hoop-petticoat Covered with tabb, 2 15s; aFroncb silk quilt-d petticoat 10; a mantua and petticoat of French broctde, 78; a French point rules and tucker, 80; necklace, 1 5s; English stays, Covered with tabb, 3; a Flanders lace handkerchief, 10; an Italian fan C; a black silk a la mode hood, 15s a black lace ditto, 5 6s; French embroidered and bosom knot, 2 2s; pocbets of Marseilles quilting, 1 5s muff, hi, ssble tippet, 15; lining of Italian lute- s'ring, 6; Turkey handkerchief,- 6 6s; bat Of Leghorn, 1 10s; beaver hat for the forest, with feather, 3; a riding suit, with Parisian erUbroidery, 47 10s; tbrco drcases for the masquerade, two from Venice, 36; one from Parts, of green vclvot set with pearls and rubies, 123 13s;. Besides these wera shoes, stockings, gloves, pomatums, patches, powder, Ac. The beau' of 1727 is represented as dressed in a fine linen shirt, the ruffles and bosom of mcchlin lace, a small wig with an enormous queuo or tail, his coat well garnished with lace, black velvet breeches, red heels to bis shoes, and gold clasps to his stockings; bis hat beneath his arm, a sword by his side, and himself well scented." A lesson for the Girls. An intelligent gentleman of fortune, says the Bangor Whig, visited a country village in Maine, not far from Bangor, and was hospitably entertained by a gentleman having three daughters;two of whom in rich dresses enter tained the distinguished stranger in the parlor, whilo one kept herself in the kitchen, assisting her mother in preparing food and setting the table for tea, and after supper, iu doing the work until it was completed, when she also joined her sisters in the parlor the remainder of the evening. Next morning the same daughter was again early in the kitchen while the other two were in the parlor. The gentleman, like Franklin, possessed a dis criminating mind was a close observer of the habits of young ladies watched an opportunity, and whispered something in the ear of the industrious one, then left for a timo. but revisited the family, and in about one year tho young lady of the kitchen was conveyed to Boston, the wife of the same gentleman visitor, where the now resides at an elegant mansion. Tbegenlleman, whose for tune she shares, she won by a judicious de portment aud vrell directed industry. So much for an industrious young lady. A Beautiful Idea. Awar among the Allcghanies is a spring, so small thata single ox, in a summer's day, could drain it dry. It steals its unobtrusive war amone the hills, till it spreads out into the beautiful Ohio. Thence it stretches away a thousand miles, leaving on its banks mere than a hundred villages and cities, and many thousand cultivated farms, and bearing on its bosom more than a thousand steamboats. Then joining the Mississippi,it stretches away and away some twelve hundred miles more till it falls into the great emblora of eternity. It is one of the great tritutaries of the ocean, which, obedient only to God, shall roll and roar till lbs angel, with one foot on the sea tnd tho other on the land, shall lift up his hand to heaven and Swear that time shall be no longer. So with moral influence. It is a rivulet a river an ocean, boundless tnd fathomless as eternity. Do Good. Thousands of men breathe, move and live; pass off the stage of life, and are heard of no more. Why?. They do not a particle of good in the world, and none wero blessed by thein, noft could point to them as tho not instrument of their wholo . redemption; a word they spoke Could be recalled, and no they perished ;thtir light went out in darkness, and they wero not remembered more than the insect of yesterday. Will you thus live and die, oh, man immortal? Lire for something. Do good, and leave behind yon t monument of virtue that the storm of time can never destroy. Write youf namo in kind noss, love and mercy, on lha hearts of thousands you come in contact with year by year; you never will be forgotUfi. . No; your deeds, will be legible on the hearts yon leavo behind, is tbt stars on the brow of evening.- Good deedi will thin u the stars of Heaven. Dr. Chalmert. ......

Lively times in a Wisconsin Coun cil-A Catholic Priest dentranffe tfiem as Heretic. A correspondent writing from ShulUbarg, Wisconsin, has the IrtloWing: During the session of the County Board of Supervisors far this county, at the November term, there were somt rich scenes, one of which claims our serious attention. Some o f the lobby members got up t resolution to ap propriate one hundred dollars for RotaSn Catb, olic purposes, which was rejected by one ma jority. At the evening session of the same day,the Catholic priest eime before the board and remarked! "I suppose thti reason why yon refuse . to grant tht appropriation is, that it Is to benefit the Catholics) but 1 am rejoiced that such things cannot always be; for there is a crisis coming, and sooner than people art aware of. lanterrfombas bird about its full tuny, and others art about to rule ifl this country, and then neither you.nor any sect of biso heretics will dart to refuse ns an appropriation for Such purposes." , Soma of the members of tbt Board explain ed the If masons lor voting as they did on the question.

Extract MOM THE WEW-YEAR'S ADDRESS OF Tll CAB- men ur inc. mi. vebnox ucruBLlCAM. Our election passed off with the usual amount Of political gas, and political strife, But when it was orer, and tbey came to the "count," . . this life; It was found that the Democracy bad departed Ohio came down like a thousand of brick, On the Administration and all of it a tools. Voted Jimmy Buchanan a miserable stick, And showed him the Buckeyes were far off from fools. In old Knox we gave Helroick a rousing majority, Between five and six hundred if I recoiled right, And the poor, deluded, Democratic minority, Have gone ap Salt Kivor in a miserable plight; Poor Burns rent his linen right off from bis back, And rived some no doubt, (there was nobody hurt,) And cursed the Republicans, Yellow and Black, For the loss of hit scat, and the loss of his shirt. The next thing in order was a grand celebra tion, To honor the triumph of nY'lit over wrong, And our city has not seen such a huge demon stratioo, Since eighteen hundred and cver-so-lonjr; It commenced with an old fashioned torch light procession, In which every one joined with a hearty good will, Without regard to their calling, their trado, or profession, Including the Devil who could'nt keep still. This over, the crowd was ably addressed, By several Republicans, true haartod men, And more than one democra. that night c in frssed He never would vote for a Loco again Mt. Vernon's ahead, in one thing at least, Of any town neur us north, south, west, or cast, Our new Uniou School House on Mulberry : street, In central Ohio cannot be beat. And now il the Hen coup which stands on the square, Wis down, and a Market House built to compareWith our Court House, and SchoolHouse, we'd then havo u trio Of fine Public Buildings unsurpassed in Ohio. Our Knox County Fair which was held in Sep tember, Wasone which Mt. Vernon will ever remember; In every respect it excelled all the rest, The crowd was the largest, the show was the best, 1 The fine horses, ani stock of all kinds would comparo Very favorably with those at tho Ohio State Fair. . Last month tho Banner man published a call, Inviting the one, and all, To assemble in mass convention, For the laudable purpose of finding the reason Why we pay such enormous taxes this season, And discover some means of prevention; The inefficiency of Republican administration, In our county, too, needed investigation; And no doubt 'twas his intention The call for this meeting should meet the eye Of none but the genuine Democracy, For be never called attention, To the notice editorially, of course supposing, He would catch the Black Republicans dosing, And then by circumvention, He, and a few brother Buccaneers, Would have a nice time without any fears Of Republican intervention. Pass strong resolutions declaring, of course, Our county officers rascals, if nothing worse, And express their apprehension, That the publio confidence was being abased, And the county funds not rightly used, all, Make speeches accordingly, and then to cap it Lay In a supply of political capital. At length came theiday the novelists say, And the LoCoa Were all In high glee, Their plans were all made, the Wires were all laid; And everything Worked to a T; To the Court House they go, slipping up two tytwo.. But why thii dismay and surprise? What wild glances they cast, they all atahd . aghast. At the tight which there meets their eyes; A Republican force, a majority of court , Is there ill ready for action, And on every face, with becoming grace, . Sits a stmleirf aelfsitisfaction; in it, They saw in a minute, they had put their foot Cut now was no time fur retreating, So a President was elected, not the One they expected, ' Who at once tailed to order the meeting. The Democratic resolutions were voted down. At soon as they showed their fates, nd despite the Buccaneers eurst itid frown, Others voted up in their place ; The LocoeotnRtittew waa served the nine way, And mother appointed lb' look into the mat- And see what becomes of the taxes we pay; In regard to tht first ont I've nothing to say, Bat I know we can lily on three fifths of the lit. ter; ' ' '-Several speeches wcrt made and 'he mtellhg adjonrned, But the fire of revenge in Leckoy's Ltart turned; Tho next week he "cam out" in two columns of trash, v. ...

When thoy gol in, Garrick ordered the coachman to drivo on; but the driver answered that he would as soon as bo got his compliment of four passen-gors. A caprice immediately seized Girrick. lie determined to give lit brother player a specimen of bis art Whilo the eoachtnan wis attentively looking out for passengers, Gurrick slipped out at the door, went round the coach, and, by his wonderful ' command of countenance, palmed himself upon the coachman as a stronger. This he did twice and wamsdbit-ted into the coach each time as a fresh passen. per, to tht tfalonisPrtltnf and" admiration o1 Preville. Garrick whipped out a-third time. and addressed himself to tho coachman, who said in a surly 'one, that he had "already get his complement,'' and would have driven ofF without him, had not Preville called out tha'. as the stranger appeared to be a very little man, they would accommodate- the fentleruan, an I miko room for him. Tub Wbuoe-Tailed Laqlk . This is tho flcrcost of .the family, and is frequently to be met with in Australia. James Backhouse gives an instance ol a woman huvitig buen chased by one of these birds for some distance, and obligod to run to a house for sholter. Ho was told by the wifo of a settler, 'that she one day was struck w ith the aet'ion of a horse in an enclosure, galloping rapidly kick- wards and forwards, chased by two eagle.-. The horso at length fell, when one'uf the birds pounced on its head; she their called for the assistance of somo men. who drove away the ferocious birds.

Tho jury retired, but returned in a few mo ments, and, with tears in their eyes, proclaimed the man notguilty. An old acquaint ance stepped up to tho prisoner and said. "Jem, the danger is past: and now honor bright, didn't you steal that horse?" To which Jem replied: "Wei', Tom, I'vt til along thought I took that horse; but since I've heard tht Governor's speech, I don't be lioio I did !" A BabdarisM. The term AVi KringJe is a horribly barbarous imitation of a German barbarism, into which an English ear has led many of our newspaper editors and writer's. Chriit-iindlein or Chrisl-khidchea, is the German proper fof Christ- Child, or infant Christ. Many Germans havo corrupted it into Chritt. kintle particularly in Pennsylvania. This is bad enotmh, but to corrupt it still more, and remove, it utterly away from all semblance to tbt original, is too bad. "Kris Jfinglt," as a nam for tht Babe of Bethlehem, is nei ther Enirlisli nor bad ' German, but a mere jargon or gibberish of the vilest kind--and whon the facts are known, sounds like rib aldry.
