Our readers will remember the spicy letter of “Nor’wester’’ to the Boston Post, referri to*Burling, the New York collector, wi went the rounds of the papers a few weeks ago. The following account of his modus operand? ssems te corroborate Nor weater’s statements : ' Ten years ago I was seated in my office at No. 12 Wall street. busily driving the quill, when I beard aquiet step behind, and then a mild voiee inquiring if I had the transeript of scertain jadgment against one J. @. O.—the projector of the great Peg-ghe-wah-wah Com- sany for selling Ladian medicines. I looked ap, aud saw & man whose twisted foot and pal- sied arms were quite familiar to me, but of whose name or calling I knew aothing. « Yes.” [ replied, ‘I have the transeript.”’ “Well, I want it,” he said; «I'm going to t it for the ereditor.”* ug to collect ft!’ T exclaimed, ‘‘#hy, the judgment is perfectly worthless. Hxecw- tions, and pre after judgment, and afl ordinary means of grace, have long ago been exhausted upon 0. He is helplessly insolvent, and is besides the most adroit scainp of a swindler I ever encountered.”’ + What's that to vor broke — the visitor, ina graff; strong voice, quite different from his fret tones. ‘Perhaps you don't know who lam. I'm Burling, the man about town. You a lawyer, and not know me! Sheriffs are good for nothing; constables a: fer noth- ing; executions and creditors’ bills are good for nothing. Give me the transcript—here’s the order for it—Ill make the money out of him.” L swiveled around my chair and stared at the man. “And will you be so good, Mr. Bur- ling.” I asked, ‘as to tell me what is your patent plan for superseding officers and writs. and for squeezing blood out of turnips, and cash out of the President of the Peg-ghe-wah- wab Company ?” “How I doit, you mean. Why I dun ’em at their houses, I dun ‘em in the street, I dun em at the theatre, dun ‘em in church, I eatch "em early in the morning and stick to em all day; follow ‘em up wherever they go; gotomeals and eat with ‘em: go to bed and sleep with “em: give ‘em no e night or day. canes nor week day: stick to "em like death to a dead nigger.

The Home Journal contains the following re- marks’by Mr. Willis, upon dress, hats, &c.: “There’ are several artistic points in which the dress of the many has very much improved. The collar of the coat is now ent asa seulptor would have it—so as not te interrupt the nata- tally-curved line from the ear to the turn of the shoulder. By making the arm-hole larger, too; the dislocated or joined-on appearance of the sleeve is remedied, while the greater full- ness of the sleeye itself liberatizes the general air of the garment. Trows-rs are improved by making the leg smaller as it approaches the iu- step, thus tapering it handsomely into the line of the well-made b oot. “But the greatest advantage of all is the present fashion of wearing waisteoat and trow- sere of the same material, thus giving to the advancing figure « continuity & eolor from head to loot. and adding to the height as well asthe harmony of the proportions. ‘The stripe down the onteide seam of the pantaloon is also an advantage to the height. In the wearing of the cravat, which is now a mere tic dcound a low-cut shirt collar, one of the finest points of masenjine beauty is preserved—the. shape of the throat and neck below that commencing- line of the beard which is so universally hand- some. The inereased attention to the shirt wristband adds to the look of cleanliness and elegance. “Hata are in quite a state of body knows what the fashion is. Sombreros of all descriptions prevail. But while the general appearance of the crowd is thus made vastly nore picturesqye, the individual pbysiognomy suffers proportionately, Grave men scarcely look sane in the “rowdy hats’ now so common; mercantile men Jook untrustworthy—religious men look abandoned—poets neglected—politi- cians reckless. Brady, the great photographer, should be berse td at work, collecting for poster- ity the ineredible auto-caricatures of men of standing and morals, as seen in their present day hat-wearings. Of suspended conscious re- spectability in the outer man it isa most curi- ous pereho logical era! ““ May we hope to be excused if we add to this generalizing record of fashion, a compar- ative remark which may possibly be consid- ered somewhat in favor of our own sex? The democratic principle seems to be equal- ly at work in the dresses for ladies—all classes “going it equally stag with most inconve- hjent cripoline, and ali bonnets equally despe- rafe in covering only the more sensuous phre- nology. But, while with vulgar men the ex- periment is nearly successful, with the similar class of women it is wholly unsuecessful. It Ttequires more than one look to tell whether your well-dressed male fellow-passenger on the deck of a steamboat is a gentleman or a snob, but at the very first glance you know whether a see alady or a chambermaid—albeit the ly and the chambermaid wear precisely the same fashions. Probably it requires nicer skill to appear a lady than to appear a gentleman. But we leave the subject at this difficult and dangerous point, for our readers to argue. be ae ore —__ HA! HA! BAY! ‘« Capital title,’’ said the Panjandrum. So we thought, as we broke through the rocky ledges which shut in the Saguenay, and steamed out in the broad, pissia waters, which Mr. Lossing says are called “Heskvewasha, which signifies smiling or laughing bay.”’ Our Panjandrum’s mouth, when he smiled, resembled « printer's brace, like this ——. And when he told a etory, the centre-point of the brace came down upon his ander lip like an admiration point.

Ne- Just then a small English person, with the regular whisker of Albion, broke out into a conversation with one of the Canadian Hahi- tants: + Mosshew, esq’ vous avez tei; en cet riviere ict, helkchose de bon poisson pour, aw bon pour, dem it! arez ici, any fish.’ porsson. pour, am, #w, to catch prise. what do you cail it? aw, now, is there any fishing in this river?”’ Habitant.—“+ Not a beet.” «Now, then, Panjandrum. tell us a gtory.”” “TI will,”’ and the Panjandrum looks over his shoul at the English person. —~— “Wherl wae at old Harvard, a classinate of mine was & tremendous fellow in Greek and Latin. He had the distinguished position among his fellow-students as being the we linguist in Cambridge. One day he suid to me confidentially, —.— —he said to me confiden- tintly, «I want you to understand that I don’t care anything for the dead langunges, but I do want to learn modern languages, and expe- cially French, so that I can spenk it flippant- ly? ? “We intended to say flr vently?”’ said the “T think he did.” replied the Panjandrum. ——~ —Cozzens’ Wine Press. A Le@au Axecpore.—Elisha Williams, for- merly of Columbia county, was somewhat noted for bis eluquence and power of moving a jury On one oecasion he made a plea w h produced e marked effect byth apou the jury and upon the Court. His legal opponent was a mere pettifogcer, but shrewd. and, as it happened on the oceasion, succeeded in laying ont the emi- nent connseller. When Mr iltiams had closed his eloquent appeal, the pettifugger rose aod said “Gentlemen of the Jury and your Honor I should despairof the triumph of my client.in this case. after the eloquent appeal of the learned counse?, but for the fact that common Jaw is commen sense.

The painter was aunoyed, aad determined to put an end to the persecution. As the train passed under tbe tamnel of St. Cloud, the three travellers were wray in complete darkness. Vernet raised the back of his to bis mouth and kissed it twice violently On emerging from the obscurity, he found that the ladica bad withdrawn their atfention from him and were accusing each other of having been kissed by a man in the dark. Presently they ar- rived at Paris; and Vernet. on leaving them, said : ** Ladies, E shall be all my life vy the inqtiry: Which of t! two ladies was it that kissed me?” ‘Sinele copies(in wrappers) can be presare Postmas agents joneae communion of Seeane ee ___ EDUCATIONAL 18S YOUNG'S SEMINARY, EDUCATIONAL, _ JONZAGA COLLEGE, 10; x | LSS ee No. 846 lirn, weanisr, | GON EP Staecr, Bkrwenx 9rmanxviorn. | E TS at he atory and basement GULAR THROUGH LINE TO CALIFOR- lish mad Freweh, Wil Seas foranetruction in Bone espe wil be resumed on the first Monday of oa Bird 4 ofee sg py Ripert RX pas eerie sad 5th of September. au 27- rinediguia Tres, AWM.
