T) Applelon A Company have puliinu(i, In
small volume, the "Wit and Wisdom of Don
Wne a collection of the best things
aid by the Knight of La Manoha, or uttered
,y Cervantes, in hia wonderful work. The
Spanish language is very rich in proverbs, and
f the originals, which make up the Spanish
collection, it is amazing how many of them
are to be found in these pages. We eopy from
the Tolume in question a number of extracts,
among which are some of the most familiar
proverbs of our language
A knight-errant without a mistress waa a
tree without either fruit or leaves, and a body
without a soul.
Majesty well becomes beauty, and excessive
laughter proceeding from slight cause is folly.
Keep your mouth shut, and your eyes open.
The brave man carves out his own fortune.
"The devil lurks behind the cross."
"There cannot be too much of a good thing."
"What is lost to-day may be won to
morrow." "A saint may sometimes suffer for a sinner."
"Many go out for wool ad return shorn."
Matters of war are most subject to continual
change.
Every man that is aggrieved is allowed to
defend himself, by all laws, human and divine.
Truth is the mother of history, the rival of
time, the depository of great actions, witness
of the past, example and adviser of the pre
sent, and oracle of future ages. ,
Evil to him who evil seeks.
Everybody has not discretion to take things
j the right handle.
He loves thee well who makes thee weep.
Shut one door and anothor will soon open.
Be brief in thy discourse, for what is prolix
cannot be pleasing.
Never stand begging for that which you
have the power to take.
A snatch from behind a bush is better thau
the prayer of good men.
Customs come not altogether, neither were
they all invented at once.
Who sings in grief procures relief.
One should not talk of halters in the lions 3
of the haneed.
Who is there in the world that can boast o
having fathomed and thoroughly penetrate I
the Intricate and ever-chancing nature 01 a
'woman T
Would to God I could find a plaoe to serve
s a private tomb for this wearisome burde i
tf life, which I bear so much against my in
clination I This very spot will yield me what
I ask, if I can trust the solitary appearance of
these mountains. Alas I now much more
agreeable is the company of these rocks and
thickets, which give me opportunities of com
plainingj to Heaven, than that of faithless
nan I since Nature hath not created one of
. whom I oould reasonably expect advice in dif
ficulty, comfort in affliction, or remedy in
distress. -
U memory, thou mortal enemy or my re
pose I wherefore now recall to me the incom
parable beauty of that adored enemy of mine ?
Were it not better; thou cruel faculty I to
represent to my imagination her conduct at
that period that, moved by so flagrant an
injury, I may strive, If not to avenge it, at
least to end this' life of pain?
A sparrow in the hand is worth more than
a Custard on the wing.
There is no jewel in the world so valuable
as a cbeste and virtuous woman. The honor
of froman consists in the good opinion of the
world; and since that of your wife is eminently
good, why should you have it questioned i
Woman, my friend, is an imperfect creature;
and, instead of laying stumbling blocks iu her
way, we should clear the path before her, that
see may readily attain that virtue which is
Ux lier. iaiurausis uiiorin us mat
the ermine is a little creature with extremely
white fur, and that when the hunters are in
puruiA of it, they spread with mire all the
then drive it, knowing that it will submit to
be taken rather than defile itself. The vir
tuous and mpdest woman is an ermine, and
her character whiter than snow; and in order
to preserve it, a very different method must
he taken from that which is used with the
ermine.
The reputation of a woman may also hi
compared to a mirror of crystal, shining and
bright, but liable to be sullied by every breath
that comes near it. The virtuous woman
must be treated like a relic adored but not
handled; she should be guarded and prized,
like a fine flower garden, the beauty and
fragrance of which the owner allows others
to enjoy only at a distance, and through iron
rails.
i.
Woman is formed of brittle ware,
Then, wherefore rashly seek to know
"What force, unbroken, sua will be r,
And strike, perhaps, some fatal blow?
II.
Though easily to fragments tore,
"Twere equally absurd and vaiu,
To daub In pieces on the floor.
What never can be joined again,
in.
This maxim, then, by facts assured.
Should henceforth be espoused by all;
Where'er a Danae lies immured.
The tempting shower of gold will fall.
The common adage that delays are dangerous
acts as spurs upon the resolution.
There are more tricks in the town than are
dreamt of.
Bounty will not stay where niggards bear
the sway.
Fortune turns faster than a mill-wheel, and
those who were yesterday at top, may find
themselves at bottom to-day.
Fiction is always the better the nearer it
resembles truth, and agreeable in proportion
to the probability it bears and the doubtful
credit which it inspires. Wherefore, all such
fables ought to be suited to the understanding
of those who read them, and written so, as
that by softening impossibilities, smoothing
what is rough, aud keeping the mind In sus
pense, they may surprise, agreeably perplex,
and entertain, creating equal admiration and
delight; and these never can be excited by
authors who forsake probability and imitation,
in which the perfection of writing conHiata.
With God nothing is impossible.
Mountains produce learned men, and phi

No padlocks, bolts, or bars can secure a

tiornples of conscience afford no peace.
You have reckoned without your host,

T) krtorATION AT FONTAINEBLEAD. Among the
resto Xns arthe palace of Fontainebleau is
above the celebrated gallery of Diana one of
the most beautiful curiosities which Henry IV
2m" noted In this most Interesting of palaces.
Louis XV had his gallery cut up in to apar t
ments, but in 1860 Napoleon O'de'dd it
should he restored to its original condition,
which consists chiefly in a gallery of he same
size as that of Diana, and ornamented with
topographical views of fifteen royal residences
ol that epoch.
The Income 'i ax in England.
Pie TAX PRODUCTIVE! IN rBOTORTION TO TnB
DIMINUTION OP RATH.
The following Article from the London limna
is instructive and ti)triesiur:
"A pape r lntd before to Houe ot Commons
ust beicre tde clone of the so-sion, on tun
motion of Mr. Mollatt, conunurs np 10 mo am
ol April, lH(i, tlie annual starts irs of the
Income tax. This Is rot the least Intrrrstlng ot
the purliamentiirv return, though It mmt bo
allowed mat it oiton eufitresTs mure iuiuin
thnn it answers. In the first place, it Hll'ords us
some conception of the distribution of wealm
In the country. It ftppnars that tlio total
amount of hicone cliiirscrt with tax In the
vear endu e; with April, 1RGG, was nearly one
hundred and fifteen millions. or this sum
murlv a ntinrtcr. or more than twenty-
seven-millions, wag furnished by incomes of
less than X3G0 n jcar. Moreover, since
all returns below 200 a jear are subject to an
bntemt'Dt of 00 in aHP8Miient, the real amount
ol meh modest incomes Is considerably larger
than thc.e lieures would represent. At the
other end of the scale a total sum of thirty-three
millions is ftirnlthed by incomes above 10,000
a vear. But the latter sum, nealu, cannot bo
tiikcn ns representing the whole amount ol these
lurpe incomes, as the contributions to the reve
nue by great landholders or prcat lundhoklers
are to be loin d in other schedules ttrnn ir and
K. Tuk'mV, however, the divisions laid down
in the letuin, the larL'ost rum total, or eighteen
millions, ih returned by pcr.-ons who enjoy income-
ol between 10,000 tml 50.000 a year.
Untihev are closely pressed by the incomes
under 200 a j cur, which nmouiit to s.'vetitcen
millions. The amount r.ext in niHSMitude is
cnntiihutcd by the krtnnate po.-sessors of morn
than 0,000 a ear. 'i'liey furnish thirteen mil
lions cl income for taxation, nnd it may be
noticed that since they are just one huudred
and thiity-lhroe in number, they appear to
enjoy an' average income ot 100,000 a your
eueli. .. :!
"It we advance by hundreds from 200 a year
up to 1000, we tind that the number ot persons
in eucli proun mid the amount returned by t hem
rnp dly duuiui&h, until from being ten millions
for the proup between 200 und 300, it is only
oi.e million lor the group between 1)00 and
1000. The amount continues at a million for
every extra hundred a your up to 2000. From
2000 a jear to 3000, every additional 100 a
lurniehes only hull' a million, and the propor
tionate return diminishes until, we reach 5000
a year. It appears, in short, that the great re
sources of the iueoine tax lie iu the small in
comes nndcr 500 a year aud in the large in
comes above 6000. If we look only to the num
ber of persons who pay the tax, the smaller
class ai, of course, vastly th more important;
but the degree by which they preponderate is,
perhaps, scarcely realized. Out of 347,110 tax
payers, no lets than 222,78(1 arc taxed on incomes
ol lees than 200 a year, 313,180 on incomes of
less than 600, while the lucomes below 1000 a
year include 332,477. Schedule E, which in
cludes incomes teceived from public offices,
furnishes a taxable amount of twenty millions,
aud includes 115,000 persons. There is a similar
hut more rapid diminution in the amounts con
tributed by the higher grades of salary, and, of
course, there are none of those enormous in
comes which we have noticed in the higher
ranks ot Schedule D.
"It has always been a remarkable feature in
this tax that it becomes more productive In pro
portion to the diminution ot its rate. This Is
due to two cause, which it is difficult to disen
tangle. In the first place thcro can be no doubt
that the returns of Income become more accu
rate and more numerous as the burden of the
impost is lessened. Conscience is notoriously
elastic on this point, and it resumes its natural
vigor in proportion us the pressure on it is
relieved, but beyond a doubt, also, the in
crease in the return of the tax represents an
Increase in the general well-beinij of the com
munity, and this is especially the case in the
time over which the present return extends.
"The amount of income charged with tax
increased, in 1800, by more than nine millions,
and the number of persons who made returns
increased by 15,000. It is remarkable that
theie is an increase of no less than 20 in the
small class of incomes above 50.000. The
number increased from 107 to 133, or by about
a quarter. In proportion, this is by far the
largest increase throughout tho list. It is.
p, ,nup, cijiiuiij uuiub ium me only ainnnu
tion is in the number of incomes assessed under
100 a year, and there is a very small increase
in the large class between 100 and 200."
The Opening of the Amazon.
Last Saturday, the 7th of September, was the
Bruzillun Fourth of July, the anniversary of the
Independence of Brazil; and on that day, this
Lear, according to a proclamation issued last
December, the Amazon, the great river, or Kins
of Waters, as the Indian name Para signifies,
was thrown open from the Atluntlo to tho
boundaries of Peru. Henceforth all nations
nay freely use this great high way of commerce,
which gives steamboat navigation from tlio
Atlantic const to within ninety leagues of
Lima. Feiu hnsalso by treaty with lirn.il, and
by a former treaty Willi the United Hialex,
granted the free navigation of her Amazonian
waters. Muvigution thus extends acroHS the
couilr.ent. The Moroua, a sea-going Peruvian
steamer, built by the Penus of Lonelon, as
cei dtd, in October, 1801, from the mouth of tlio
river to within ninety leagues of the city of
Lima.
The valley of the Amazon is a vast and fer
tile wilderness, with here and there a town on
the borders ol the great river. The most im
portant and productive parts of Venezuela,
New Uiantidn, Kcnador, Peru, aud Bolivia, as
well as of Brazil, are drained by its waters. Its
valley has an area equal to the whole United
States, without the Pacilio States, and yet the
population of the Auiuzou valley is at present
no greater than that of the single city of
Brooklyn.
But new measures in regard to grants of
lauds and emigrants have just been proposed
In the Brazilian Parliament, which, if carried
out, cannot fall to Induce emigration to tbls
equatorial valley where the mercury never
rises as high as in Philadelphia, and where yet
the rich aud useful staples, coil'ee, sugar, eottou,
rice, India lubber, etc. etc., repay the Indus
tilous laborer a thousand fold.
Meantime, wo hope to see Americans pre
paring to tuke their share or the trade of the
Amazon, which can be developed, under the
liberal system which took effect last Saturday ,
to an important and lucrative commeroe.
Tl e Boudoir of Mad'tle Duthe.
An amateur named Double, whose especial
insanity has been u passion for things which
belong to the seventeenth century one of those
people who have peculiar admiration for the
curicsities of one or another aee h;is recently
gained a priceless piize without much cost.
It is known that the Count d'Artois, brother
of Louis XVlIf. "had a friendship,'' as it is said,
lor Mad'lle Duthe. This gentleman, who after
wards was kin? (Charles X) was very generous
to ladies, ard gave to Maii'lle Duthe a chutming
home, luxuriously furnished, nnd decorated by
the nret artists, near tho end of the Buo
Chaussee d'Antin. This house, at one time, was
owned by a relation ot Mr. DouMp, who was
enamored with its gems ot art, and had an eye
especially single- to the beauty of an exquisite
boudoir dceorated by Spandonck. But lluuss- .
man, tbe great stTeet opener, has reverence
neither for chapel nor boudoir; ;so in the en
ticement of ibo square iu front of the church
a V"se8 ot tlie coiner of the Rue tt. Lazare
