The other day (says the Pall AMall Gazetle) a Jearned Judge, charged with adjusting the more serious differences that arise between married couples, delivered a long disquisition on the marked change that has taken place of late in the habits and manners of young persons of the softer sex. Ladies, in his opinion, are gradually sssuming a freedom of action and demeanor from which a little while 2go they would have ehrunk with wholesome aversion. Unfortu- nately, however, he indicated no remedy for thie state of things, although few persous arc better qualified to offer advice upon 4 subject so closcly connected with domestic happiness. Tiad hie the requisite leisure be might employ it with advantage in the compilation of work similar to one which, it scems, enjoys high favor among the Chinese. Itis koown as the “Nuu Shun: o, Tustruction to Women,” and hasJate- 1y been brought home to us in a French transla- tion. In this popular vade-mecum the whole duty of women is set forth with all the minuteness of detail dear to the natives of the Celestial Em- pire. At the beginning, young ladics are can- tioned how needful it is for them to observe the duties of politeness, to implicitly regard the- injunctions of their parents, never to act from caprice, and to learn to make due distinction between pereous of diffcrent positious. Young girls are, moreover, enjoined always to preserve 2 scemly demeanor, not to look round while Salking, invariably to retire when male visitors make their appearance, and, above all, not to n-Eud the latter too curiously. They are pro- hibited from going to the pagoda, counseled . always to be provided with & lantern when un- avoidably out at night, and enjoined to rise in the morning at cock-crow. Hilarity is evidently not considered becoming, giggling young ladies being but little esteemed !;y ihe Cbinese. Neither is garrulity approved of, zossips creat- ing, we are assured, not._only mischiel among others, bt ample annoyance for themselves. Reading and conversation are treated of at Jength, “If,” says our mentor to his disciples, « yon do not read the books of saintsand sages, how will you know the rites, the dutics, the four virtaes, and the three obediences”— namely, of the young girl toward her parents, of the wife toward her husband, and the widow toward the ecldest of her sous? And hecites the example of Isoun, who threw herself asrainst the sword that threatened her husband; ©of the mother of Ao, who, being too poor to bay books, taught her son to rcad by tracing Jetters on the sand; and of other worthy ex- amples. “ Women,” he observes, ‘should %now how to keep accounts in order to be ca- pable of managing a household,” a clreum- stance well understood out of China. And ‘women, he insists, “shonld study books of filial piety and morality in preference to ama- w b -New v pootryy shonld not store their memorics Wwith songs and anecdotes, nor listen to relations of romances”; in other words, should eschew Mudie litera- ture. He is evidently sensible of the difficultics of the task he sceks to impose, for he observes that * effort upon effort must be made to follow these injunctions.” “The merit of a woman,” remarks this Celestial Solomon, * consists, ‘above all, in being reserved, and not meddling toomuchin other people’s business. A man +hould not spealk of his home affairs,nor a woman of outside matters.” *There are circumstan- ccs,™ he admits, #under which 2 woman ought to speak”’; but headvises her to do so “with softness and moderation, and never to let bad or angry words escape her.” The Chinese golden rule, that o speak little is a fine ac- complishment,” will be unwelcome to European or transatiantic belles with a reputation for brilliant small-talk; but, in_these days of lath and g\uk‘: villas, the wisdom of the recom- mendation that “if a visitor is in the drawing- yoom the mistress of the house should be care- ful not to spesk tooloudin the Litchen,” will be very generally recopnized. "Our Chinese nientor expresses himsclf briefly but to the poiut on matter relating to the toflette, and English husbands will certainly approve of his maxims: Study simplicity and peatness. If you are painted and dressed in high-colored garments, men will stare at you. Do not use rouge and powder every dnj‘. Be not too fond of gold, sil cr,sflrls, and jade—all { expensive artickes. Be carcful of your embroidered and silk attire, and do not wear , excepting when necessary.” A careful woman will dress usually in cotton stufls, but we are Rot so sure that she “ought not to throw them aside even when they become soiled.” She nizht wash them at least. Parental respect is strongly inculcated. *The brother an@ sister, though of different sexcs, owe the same respect to their parents; they shonld bebave toward them, both morning and evening, in an wmiable manner, ask them if Ihey are warm or cold, bring them their food, and supply them with new “shocs when neces- sary; they must obey their orders and endure their anger without replying.” A young lady, when grown up and married, is enjoined not io foryret the benefits she has received from ber parents. “Once or twice a year she ought to sk her husband’s leave to go and sce them.” Nothing is said, however, on the subject of re- turn visits on the psart of the mother-inlaw. Ample directious are ‘havior toward her husband and the members of his family. “From the remotest antiquity to the prescat time the rule in marriage is that the busband commands and the wife obeys. In all matters it is the husband who will decide, and it is the duty of the wife to conform to his decision.” Not only is the wifc to obey her busband, but she is to be even more atteéntive and respectful to his parents than to- wards her own. ¢She must inquire after their bealth night and morning, helg them to go in and out, always meet them with a smiling coun- obey their orders, briuvg them food and drink at appointed times, and jayfally offer to ‘wash their clothes, caps, and sashes. She must furnish them with new shoes, new clothes. and pew blankets, fulfill all their wishes without delay, and make every cffort to satisfy them. Your new parents,” she is told, ‘“have the rizht to scold you if you are in the wrong,” and, un- der such circumstances, she is only at liberty to reproach hel and not to utter a single word oainst them. Younger sisters residing with their married brothers are enjoined neither to hate nor deceive their sisters-in-law, and, if the latter have faults, they are to conceal and not divalge them, For it is remarked that * voung girls are too fond of telling everything, tBercby causing serious misunderstandings.” The section devoted to *‘ woman's work ™ may possibly find favor in the eyes of the advocates of woman’s rights. Chinese women are en- joined to rise early, since *‘as spring is the ‘most favorable season for the work of the year, 60 is the dawn for that of the day.” They are, moreover, bidden to take care of "the hemp and the mulberry trees; to spin with zeal silk and cotton for their own use; to learn to cut out and make their own garments, and not to have recourse to assistance elsewhere; to wash them when they get soiled, in order not to become an object of repugnance to others; while such tenance, mother-iu-law lasts for three years. iven as to the bride’s be-. Jeisure time as they can find is to be devoted to makiag shoes for their husbands aud children, their fathers and mothers- law, Mr. Buck- imaster and_other professors of the school of - cookery will be pleared to learn that in Ching the care of the kitchen is regarded as oue of first of the wife's duties. Morning and even- in she has to prepare the necessary dishes of fish, meat, soup, and vegetables, taking care that they are ncither too salt nor oo sour, und {nat the cups and plates are always clean. Whena guest srrives tea and hot water are to be at once served, the one for internal, the oth- er for extcrnal, use. The wife is enjoined always to fall in with her husband’s wishes- When it is & quetion of pressing a visitor to stay to dinner. On such occasions the eatables ‘aad drinkables are to be the best the house can afford, although we arc assured that it is of lit~ tle moment what is offered if it is only offered with politeness. And no doubtitis truc that tthe husband of a woman who knows how to receive a visitor is certain of being well received elscwhere.” A concluding section of the work relates to the libations and offerings accorded Lo the dead. Mourning for a busband und fora fumg or ur- has to wear ing this time the wife germents unbemmed at the bottom, and of 2 sad color. To laugh in the presence of funcreal hangings exposes the offend- er to universal contempt. ¢ In spring and au- tumn offerings Lave to be made to the dead, and this established rule is_not to be lightly disregarded.” *The porcelain utensils re- served for this purpose must be of the best quality and scrupulously clean.” The wife is requirced to prepare all with her own bands, “letting her zeal testify the sincerity of her sentiments.” Conjugal fidelity is expected of her, not only during Ter husband’slifetime, but after his decease. She is adjured to emulate the virtuous beroines of antiquity—the wife of Ventehiang, who cut off an ear to distigur her- self; the spouse of Waug-f, who cut off her arm’ to escape & seducer; the lady of Koung- Kiang, who ““took an oath s tough as a boat of cypress-wood ;5 and the widow Soung, whe re- fused to quit herhusband’s tomnb. ly, she is told “not to imitate faithless women who transgress thelr dutics, but to keep her heart, Lard a5 stone and iron, always pure.” £ FEMININE EXTRAVAGANCE. Marde T. Courcelles writes from Paris to the Cincinnati Enquirer: “During the Empire ladies whose only literafure was their toilet, whose only domestic care was what was going on at “the Tuileries,” looked to the Empress a5 the model for fashion, and copied her To- day there is no model, unless some queen of the demi-monde exhibits herself in some outre cos- tume, and all copy her. The ladies have a new way of wearing their veils. They tie them on the back of the hat with a large orament, the shape of a shell, theu tic them around the neck and fasten them on the left side. The effect is odd and copspicuous. It originated at the raves, where one of the fair but frail sisterhood get the example. It requires a great quantity of tulle to carry out the effect of this eccentric yet contagious mode. . - . Imagine a Thcle undergarmeni of a lady costing €30 for plain silk and $30 for cmbroidery, and even with this costly necessity a modest woman woula scareely dare present herself to her husband. 1 could scarcely believe there were wives who indulged in such luxuries, but my doubts were soon turned into strong con- Victions. I was at the house of the Countess Je, & cliarmiug Jady of wealth and position, who in a friendly way admitted me to the pri- vacy of her dressing-room. When shecompleted her bath the first garment she put on wus an Oriental bath-wrapper which cost $100. I ex- pressed so much curiosity at her extravagance that she said: *¢ Wait and see how much I'm worth when dressed,” and, as 2 matter of course, 1 took note of her personal adornment as she dressed, and gige it as a mere cpitome of how thueh money may be spent in luxuries. Her chemise was pale blue silk, richly cmbroidered in white silk, all haad-work and I'mnlr;;b Valenciennces lace, cost. Linen drawers, lace, cost.

Worth has some lady clients who spend $12,000 a year for dress alone. . AMARRIAGE IN THE SURF. Last winter (says the Provideuce Journal) an elderly Baltimore gentleman, proud of his wealth, discovered that his daughter had dared to love a young man far below her in the esti- mation of socicty. A week later the Baltimore mansion was closed for the scason, and the names of father and dauchter soon afterap- peared on the register of one of the hotels at Narragansett Pier. There was with them a com- ‘panion, outwardly treated 2s an equal, but in reality a paid spy over the young lady’s actions and correspondence. But before 2 fortnight had elapsed the young lover at Baltimore re- ceived one morning a big envelope containing a dainty Jittle note which filled _him with joy un- speakable. Ile had a friend who was a clergy- man, and before the sun had _set that night the two had a long, earnest conference, which re- sulted next morning in the departurc of the twain for Narragausett Pier. . The old géntleman was forbidden by his phy- sician to bathe in the surf, and the spy bated the sea as the devil is said to have hated holy water. The young lady enjoyed her bath ex- ceedingly, and, as the most infatuated lover is apt to be temporarily disenchanted by the ap- Pcanmce of his ideal ina bathiog dress, the father and the spy concluded that no possible harm could cometo the ““dear child” in the water, and so the spy only sat upon the bank and_watched. The lover and the minister reached Providence in due time and specdily won a young lawyer over to their cause. The lover then went “to the Pier, and, keeping out of the way of the spy, suddenly appeared before the hflm:f‘ girl in_the water. A few miuutes sufficed for him to proposc that they be married the next duy in the water, and the lady &)mmnuy consented. Back flew the coraptured lover to Providence, legal formali- ties were quictly arranged, the lawyer invited a confidential fricnd as witness, and the next day, when the water was full of people, a party of five might havebeen scen a little apart from the other bathers. The marriage ceremony had to be suspended every few seconds on account of the breakers. Thenthe foam leaped to claim the first kiss from the lips of the bride, but the rest of the little company relinquished their privilege on account of the attention such a proceeding might attract.

A young min went to make a party-call ona young lady of his acquaintance. According to the custom of most young ladies, this particular one delayed her appearance in the parlor, and proceeded to make her excuscs for keeping the visitor waiting. The latter was considerably surprised to hear a voice from the hall exclaim, “You know you lie, Sallie” The pet parrot went on hali-rations for several days after- wards. . Mrs. McGill sat in the parlor talking to the minister. “ What I do love,” said she, *is to see the children enjoy themsclves.” And yet when, 2 moment after, a base-ball came singing into the room, scattering the remains of a_ 50- cent glass, do yousuppose she leaned out of the window and cried: * Here's your ball, darling: e never mind the old gla She iled out the front door like a cyclone, and bunged the head of the boy who owned the ball against the railroad until he thought the Fourth of July had arrived several months ahead of time. According toa London paper, tight dresses are nowhere to be secn in such perfoction as at Jord’s cricket-ground during one of the public- school matches. At the Eton and Harrow #match, he says, many ladies were rash enough to recline on the greensward, and thelr frantic efforts to rise from their recumbent position were a source of great amusement to the by- standers. A certain Duchess behaved with thie atest, sclf-possession under these somewhat humiliating circumstances. Fuding she could nobrise in’ the ordinary way, she fung herselt onall fours, aod, by throwing her weight, al- ternately to right and left finally succeeded in gaining ber perpendicular. . AN AUCTION OF SULTANAS. (Transtated from Lo Stamboud, July 124 least 60 5ays ; the New York: World.] Yesterday in the Palace of the Waters, the Sultan, Murad V., was pleased to give an exhi- Dbition of his desire and ability to grapple suc- cessfully with the financial problem—one which even in America has provoked discussion by the Jeenest and least qualificd minds. It has hitherto been the practice for the incoming: Sultan toassume the wives as well 25 the honors of his predecessors, and, as the death-rateamong the ladies of the harem is very low, there naturally remains on the shelves,—that is to say, the divans of the Seraglio,—even after the most. liberal allowance for bow-stringings and elope- ments, 2 very considerable proportion of old stock. On taking stock of the harem, the pres- ent Sultan discovered that he was—or might be —loved, honored, and obeyed by 17 sultanas, 355 assistant-sultanas, and 629 deputy-assistant~ sultanas. Murad V. isa man of simple tastes, und hitherto has lived in the most frugal man- ner with the wives of his bosom, of whom there ure four; hence he contemplated with some reluctance the prospect of such domestic felicity. R «0 my soul! O mylamb!” said the Khislar- Aga, Achmet Pasha, as he presented the inven- tory to the new Caliph of the Faithful; “ the Suitan’s wives are besutiful as the roses of Gu- listan, and numerous as the hairs of his head. Khed geree bhlak! 1ts & big. thing.” & True, O my father, but too much honey is 10 longer sweet, and some wives will pull “ont more than one hair. Truly, Allah s great ! « JJe is that,” replied the pious servant. « Besides,” continued the Sultan, “ the rose of Gulistan has thorns, and may not the 1,004 wives of the Sultan have mothers-in-law " k! Buki™ rteplicd the Khislar-Aga; « though the mother-in-law’s tongue be long, the Bosphorus is deep.” The Sultan nevertheless felt it incumbent ap- on hiroself in the interest of economy to_reduce Lis domestic establishment. His first idea was to have them valued and rafficd off among the English holders of Turkish bonds, but the im- possibility of this project was speedily pointed out by Earl Derby in 2 dispatch from which the following Is an extract: Yon will therefore paint out to H. I M.'s Gov- ernment the impossibility of I. M.’s Government entertaining for a moment its propesition, 30 strong is the prejudice in Great Britian against open polygamy, not to dwell u the fact that he arrangement proposcd _would make more in- tolerable rather than ameliorate the condition of those of H. M. 's subjects who have invested in the obligations of the Sublime Porte. For if, through the failure of the Porte to mcet those obligations, the British bondholder is unable to support the wife he has, how will his position be bettered if e be given an additional wife, and st the saoe time the amount of his capital 18 reduced? You will assore the Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs, (Signed) DrrsY. Finally, Midhat ‘Pasha conceived the motable project of selling adraft from the Imperial harem. It isa well-kmown fact that whenever slaves from the harem are offered for sale there is un active competition for them among wel- to-do Turks. Widows arealways sattractive: how much more, then, the widow of a Sultan Tt was estimated thatby disposing of 786 su- urfluous wives, not only would the Sultan be isembarrassed’ materially, and the annual ex- penses of the Empire dfminished, but a very considerable sum of moncy would be poured into its coffers. The following advertisement, therefore, was inserted inall the city papers, and cried aloud in the mosques: NASIR ED DEEN, Auctioneer. By Nasin Ep DEsx & Co. SUNDAY, July 11, at 12:30 o’clock P.

The total consignment embraces 786 head, and is one of the largest and _most varied ever thrown on the market. Among the lots are: Veuve Achmet I11-, vintage 1811. Rose Gulistan, 1859 (very rare).

Sale positively without Terms—Cash: 22 per chases above £1,000 T. The above announcement, coupled with the private notification by the Chief of Police that all large capitalists would do well to be on hand and buy freely, succeeded in drawing to the Palace of the Waters yesterday s large con- course of buyers, Pipes, coffee, and sweetmeats were distributed among them, and attendants sprinkled them with costly perfumes, -after which the auctioneer mounted the rostram and announced the conditions of the sale, and busi- ness began. ‘The first few lots dis;]msed of were slaves, for whom the bidding was languid. When lot 13 was reached, 2 stylish Georgian gir], rising 19, pure white; except a small sallow Star in her forchead, the bidding was active, Achmet Pasha finally securing her for 1,100 liras. He was heartily congratulated on his purchase, and offered a considerable advance On the price paid by anumber of bidders who were too late to take an active part in the com- petition. Lot 10, a well-made, but rather under-sized Syrian, with unexceptionable action, fell to an American, Barnoum Pasba, whose agent stated that there was “millions in it,"—a sort of Western hyperbole which was very good-humor- cdol&) reccived. Price 850 liras, worth at lcast 1,000 Lots 3536, a stylish and well-bred Persian, from Erzeroum, with her danghter by her side, were the next to command attention. A purchaser—** How old is she " Nasir ed Deen— Thirty-three, next grass.” The purchaser—* May my soul be my sacri- fice, but she’ll never see 45 again! Examine her mouth.” The Khislar-Aga signed to one of the attend- ant cunuchs, who was standing behind the pur- chaser with bis scimitar drawn, to put up bis_ weapon, then said mildly: O iy son, of a verity God is great, and the Franks (whom God confound!) are full of learn- ing. Behold, it would profit thee not to exam- ine the mouth of the woman, for her teeth are plugged—yea, full of gold as the hills of Kirsch- razd. O, my lamb, behold the certificate of & ental surizeon; further, it is not profitable for thee to inquire. Says the poet, Firdusi: *Sword- Dlades are sharp, and the neck of the questioner is amaller than the executioner’s thumb.’ And now dost thou not believe that the woman is of the age I have said?” ¢ Mashallah!" said the purchaser; “is she not? Yea, she and her daughter are of an age.” And he bought them at & price that was gen- erally considered excessive. ¢« Hamid Khan,” said theauctioneer, with the license of his calling, to a young man attired in rich but sober vestments, after balf a dozen handsome young almehs had been disposed of, Why hast thou not opened thy mouth to bid, while there have passed before thee maidens as beautiful as those houris whom Allah kecps in Paradise for believers who fall in battle? " ““ The fect of o girl are light, so0 is her head,” sententiously remarked the young man. “ Things are not now as they were in the days of our fathers. Bismillah, now the maiden is like a wasp at her waist and just below like a camel; and she knows no more how to hoss the slaves or to cook the pilaff. For me I will none but a wife of the good old sort,” concluded this representative of Young Turkey. * Keerect,” replied the auctioneer, clapping 1is hands as a signal to his slaves; ' trot out lozu‘l,l'lh Hcrc"s a \\;il: of t"llxle ood old sort for you,” be continued, as there was ed toothless and decrepit old ha— Daraded & reserve. ‘cent discount on all pur- (NOTE—The Official Cénsor has orderedl thy editor of Le Stzmboul to cancel ‘\'ha‘:.rhcr:md all‘E ready written and substitute the following:) —*‘a woman beautiful as the houris of Para- Slsc, Wltdh eyes lik:isns}:rs,_ a cheek like the ‘ose, and a voice ra z Tose o g as the song of the ‘We have great pleasure in complying with his req\xcsr,i and regret t:nt. l&row h the inadvert- ence of a compositor, the above place.—Ed.

On the whole the sale was very successtul, the 785 Jots realizing 219,473 Turkish pounds, or an average of somewhat more than £279 T. each, or, say, §1,400 in gold.

An aceldent occurred at Augustine, Det., oie day last week, which called forth an exhibition of nerve certaiuly remarkoble. A Wiliington ex- change thus describes the accident: A man by the name of Neil Kelly, an employe of Jessup & Moore's paper-mills, was clcaning a_etack of chilled calender rolls, ure for calenderinz and giving compactness o the paper. The rolls are Tun so vlose together that light cannot be scen be- iween thom. While Kelly wus wiping the mois- tare from the rolls, preparatory to stopping work for the duy, hu stepped upon something which cauged him 10 elip, and to avoid falling he put ont his right band, the index finger of which came directly between the revolving rolls and was im- mediately drawn slowly in, crashing the finger and flatteninz it ont as thin as a piece of paper. Ina few minutes his whole hand and arm would be passing between the rolle, Sceing and fully com- prehending the danger, and knowing that no onc Was in the mill bat himself, he detcrmined upon plom that required great necve to exccute. Selzing is right wrist by the discngaged hand, he propped imseif with his feet firraly against the base of the machine, and pulled with all his might nntil the finger parted at the second joint, pulling the main leader from the arm as far up os the elbow. _After thus frecing himself, he stopped the machinery, closed the mill. and went home. A physician was summoned. whio amputated the stump close to the ‘fand, and dressed the wound, Kelly showinz the same power of endurance during the operation that e had previonsly cxhibited.
