The popularity of shirring remaios un- | |changed, and every part of a dress that |can be gathered is drawn up into ianum- ierable gaugings and fine puffs. | White stockings are totally out of fashion, and ladies who dislike high- jcoloured or bright striped hose wear those of pale silver grey, mastic, pale i lilae, or black. | Short princess dresses are worn upon ‘the street, but are so covered with in- ‘uumerable shirrings, sashes, and other drapings as to quite disguise the original ‘shape of this simple dress. | New shoes of silk velvet for evening wear are laced up the front with slender \cords of gold or silver, and the toes are covered with embroidery worked in silver or gold threads. The last extravagance in French hose ,is a new stocking of cream white lace in ,open work designs to be worm over lavother one of spun silk tinted a fresh color. The lace stockings cost $25 a | pair. It is the young girl growing into womanhood whom fashion most injures, says a writer in the Sanitary Record, | By the tight steeled and boned stays, by \the heavy dragging draperies, the organs of the body are forced out of their natural positions, and they and the mus- cles are never properly developed. Cir- | culation is impeded, healthy exercise | rendered almost impossible, and injuries done and malformations produced which are felt throughout the whole of the woman’s after life—and not during her own life only, but entailed upon her children after her. —_——~. <4 oe Wise Words. An effort for the happiness of others lifts us above ourselves.—Mrs. L. M. Child. Itis not only arrogant, but it is profli- gate, for a man to disregard the world’s opinion of himsetf.— Cicero. Do what thou canst unknown; and be not vain of what ought rather to be felt than seen.— William Penn. Opinion is the main thing which does good or harm in the world. It is our false opinions of things which ruin us.— Antonius. True politeness is perfect ease and freedom. It simply consists of treating others just as you love to be treated yourself.— Chesterfield. The greater part of men have no opinion, still fewer an opinion of their own, well reflected and founded upon reason.— Seume. An ostentatious man will rather relate a blunder or an absurdity he has com- mitted, than be debarred from talking of his own dear person.— Addison. Let the ground of all religious actions be obedieuce ; examine not why it is com- manded, but observe it because it is com- manded. True obedience neither pro- crastinates nor questious.— Quarles. Politeness is to goodness what words are to thought. It tells not only on the manners, but on the mind and heart; it renders the feelings, the opinions, the words moderate and gentle.—Joubret. A modern writer has well said: ‘* There is a dignity in every attempt to provide for the future. It indicates self-denial, and imparts strength to the character. It produces a well-regulated mind. It fosters temperance. It is based on forethought. It makes pru- dence the dominating characteristic. It gives the mastery over self-indulgence. Above all, it secures comfort, drives away care, and dispels vexations and auxietics which otherwise might prey with severity upon us.—Jns, Age. Stein aaa Mr. Goldwin Smith writes to the Times as follows on the subject of the Land League :—‘‘ Your correspondent in the United States reports, no doubt with perfect truth, that the native Americans are holding aloot from the Land League and dynamite movemeuts. Depend upon it, the feeling of the native American towards the Old Country is now upviver- sally and entirely kind. Even at the’ time when it was less kind it seem- ed to be not so much ordinary enn:ity as wounded affection. You have nothing to fear from that quarter. As to dynamite, it is utterly repugnant to a bigh moral civilization. The Americans wish to see justice done to Ireland, but they must know that the British. Parliament is try- ing to do it. This is what a correspondent of Win- nipeg says: ‘* We want female immigra- tion. Itis to bad that a fellow should have to toil in the fields all day, then come home at night aud do his washing cooking aud mendiag, when there are so many excellent girls all over the Eastern Previuce who could do this work nicely. The sinking of Lake Ontario threatens Toront> and other harbors. The cause is not well understood, opinions or sta/ements of our correspondents, _ Clear, Straightforward State- ment. } To the Editor of the Heaminer. Sik,—I lately observed a communication in the Patriot accusing the Commissioner of Public Works and the Supervisor of Roads of partiality and carelessness respect- ing Brudenell wharf and three bridges in this end of the district, namely Montague | Bridge, Victoria Cross Bridge, and Keith’s | Bridge. Until then I thought the public was satisfied with them, as I never heard any complaint against either. Neither did 1 expect they were without fault, any more than other men. But one thing, I believe they will compare favorably with their pre- decessors. From the little I know of Mr. Campbell [ think he would be the last man to be partial, and as for Mr. Munn, I don’t know, if he resigned to-morrow, where we could get a more suitable person. But it is iin possible to please everybody and it seems |** Mechanic” is net pleased. It seems his machinery has get rusty for want of em- ployment—no loss to the public-—and .when he tried to operate it, it went wild ‘and out of gear. Atany rate he lost con- itrel over his tongue ; otherwise he would ‘not make the statement he has done. If \** Mechanic” had taken a little time to find out the truth respecting the bridges, ‘he might have a different story to tell, and ithe parties he accused he would leave alone |when he knew they were doing the best they could. The writer has not the smal!- est interest in this matter, any more than putting it in its true light before the pub- licabout Montague Bridge. A few weeks ago I acceidentally happened to be there the day of sale to cover the bridge with ‘new plank. The Supervisor stated that ‘the plank should be good and sound, square edged, well spiked with such spikes; butts to be broken all throngh. He thought the railing might do until next spring. The covering must be on the bridge one month after the party taking it were notified. The sale was accepted by the Commissioner of Public Works. Bridge looked after until the covering was on. About the bridge at McLean’s at Vic- toria: a few weeks ago a plank broke in the covering. The Supervisor was notified and the bridge repaired immediately; and before and since the bridge is in as good {order as it-was since it was built, About Keith’s bridge: it is under con- tract to cover it with new plank a consider- able time ago. If not covered it soon will be. About the horse getting hurt: I made enquiry; nobody heard of such horse, nor none can find him. About the wharf ; I know nothing about it, but is like the bridges, it need not trouble anbody. In the face of the above statement, and I defy any man to contradict it, what could these men do more than they have done What could be in ‘‘Mechanic’s” heart when he penned his communication? It couid not be the fear of God, nor good will to his fellow men. Yours, ete., One Wao Cares For no Parry. Montague Bridge, Nov. 1881, NEWS NOTES. Sheep cheese is very popular in Austria, and an enterprising Austrian has started a sheep dairy near Chattanooga with 1,000 head. The New York Sun thinks Secretary Biaine is something of a humorist, because he refers to the modest dimensions of the U. 8. Navy as having been determined on so as not to alarm other nations. Belgium promises to become the great in- dustrial teacher of Europe. Many for- eigners are now attending her schools. She has fifty technical schoois, thirty-two indus- trial schools, and a higher commercial school—all receiving funds annually from the State. It is intimated by a member of Parlia- ment that at the approaching session of the Dominion Parliament a move will be made in the direction of Canadian independence, on the ground that it is desirable that we should elect our own Chief Magistrate or President. The proposition is that his salary shali not exceed $20,000 a year. A Madrid despatch states that 300 Demo- crats, who lateiy rallied to the dynasty, dined together on Sunday. They drank toasts to the alliance of democracy with thonarchy under the sgis of liberty. Moret and General Pendergast T. Gordon, the newly appointed Governor of Cuba, the latter being chairman, eulogized the King, and was loudly applauded. The London Hconomist says that while the advantages of New Zealand are, in point of climate and soil, incontestably superior to these of Canada, yet, as the former owes to England a debt involving an annual payment of $18.50 per head, while Canada has to pay but $12.70 per head annually to England, the verdict of the London Stock Exchange in putting Canada four per cents ten per cent. higher than New Zealand fours is sound. The Economist considers Canada’s power of borrowing far from exhausted, Says the Montreal ‘* Witness”: ‘‘ We have to thank the Government for undertaking the costs of the appeal of the test case by which the validity of the Scott Act is to be finally settled before the Privy Council. In acting thus the Government must have the ap- proval of all the people, whether faver. able or unfavcrab'e to the Act, as it is greatly to the public interest that so im- p-riant a matter should be finally settled; and it would have been, as we had occasion to point out, a little strange if a question not Only inve' ving an importeut law but seriously affecting the very constitution of the country nad been decided on a case between a tavern- keeper and a policeman,” eu ; & ' <i ig cul iin Mls” i tas lin Bad Ce Ria ne ibe:
