She is herself a character. She has creased the plains twice—first in 1849, during which her husband ,per ishod—and is the first Amerieandady who returned to the east by the way of the Isthmus of Panama, She is a genuine heroine—a fine specimen of stout hearted western womanhood— and ter adventures in the wilds of the unpeopled west have been numerous and exciting. If the good people cif Mariposa have missed a lady from their neighborhood, they are. hereby apprised that she is comfortably locut ted at the boarding house of Mrs. Nes-, bit, on the corner of Montgomery And Sutter streets, and will not return to the mountains until Holmes of the Gazette, ceases to harrow„ the ..hearts of Mariposa' mothers by calling their little babies "brats." Well, while the train of which this lady was a member was encamped at a point on the Humboldt, where the Lessen trail intersects the Cursor track of travel, she visited the lent of family, consisting of an elderly con. pie and one child—.a daughter of four teen or fifteen years.—The old lady was sitting on a pile of blankout; an der the canvas, encouraging a most deterthined attack of the "sulks," while the masculine head qf alTaire had 'hatted himself on his wooden tongue, and was sucking his pipe akleieurely as though he expected to rem•tin there forever. A single glance developed the fact.that there was a difficulty in that little train of one wagon and three persona, and that it had attain. ed a point of quiet desperation be• yond the reach of peaceful adjustment. Three days before they had pitched their tent at the forks of the road and thp.si,e4Mlo, - - , 44 - regiee upon the route by Witielno. r atter California. ;here they had remained.• The husband ex pressed t preference for the Carson rod d—the wife for the Lesson—and neither would yield. The wife decla red she would remain there all winter; the husband ,said ho should be pleased to lengthen the sojourn through the summer.following. • • On the morning of the fourth day the wife broke a sullen silence of thir ty six hours by proposing a division of the property, which consisted of two yoke of cattle,-ene wagon, camp fur niture, a small quantity of provisions and $l2 in silver. The proposal . was accepted. and forth With the "plunder" was diVided, leaving the wagon to the old man, and the daughter to the mo• :ther. The latter exchanged with • a neighboring train the cattle belonging to her, for a pony and peek saddle. and piling the daughter and her wit-- lion of the divided spoils upon the an imal, she resolutely started aeresk the desert by the Leseen 'trail while the old man silently yoked the cattle and took the other route. ,Singralar as this may seem, it is nevertheless trne. It is among the many occurrences of life stranger than fiction. Of &sorsa both parties reached California in safety. We say "of cOurse,"for it is scarcely possible that any obstacle, death ineluded, could bare seriously interfered with the progress of stub i bormiese so sublime.

TWO years ago she went to San Francisco, and the daughter, whose education had not been ne leeted, was•married to one of the most substantial citizens. - And what has become of the old man ? The wife bad not seen or heard of him since they parted on the Hum boldt. They bad lived happily togeth er at. man and wife for years. and she sometimes reproached herself for the wilfulness that seprrated theni after so - long a pilgrimage together thro' this rough life. But ho was not dead. We cannot trace Lis course in Califor nia. however. All that we kilo* of him is, that fortune had not smiled upon him. and that for years he had toiled Without hope. Filially, feeling searcely able to longer wield the pick and shovel, he visited Sun Francisco in the hope of obtaining employment better adapted to hiSwasted strength. For th*ect months ho remained bile after arriving here, and then for the want of occupation became the hum file retailer of peanuts and oranges with his entire stock of traffic in a has• get upon his arm. 'I bis was about six months ago. ,A few weeks • since, in passing the open door of a cottage in the southern part of the city. he oh served a lady in the hall and stopped to offer his merchandise. As he step ped upon the threshold, the lady ap preached and the old man raised his eyes and dropped the basket, and no wonder either— for she was hie wife—• his •old woman ?" She , recognized him, and throwing up her arms in a mitzement; exc•lainted : "Great God ! John is that you? "All that is left of me," replied the old man. With ex tended arms they approached. Sud denly the old lady's countenance chum• god, and she stepped hack. "John," said she, with a look which might have been construed into earnestness. "how did you find the Carson road! Miserable Sulty—miserable," replied the old man, "full of' sand and alkali !' "Then I Was right, Jobb ?" she con tinued. inquiringly, "You were, Su ky," -he replied. "That's enough ?" said she, throwing her • arms around tlie•old man's neck; "that's enough John;" and the old couple, strangely sundered, were again united. Both are living with their daughter on Sec ond street.--.S7an Franefßen Hooped Skirts--Are tney Healthful ? There are few subjects about which mare stupidly ill natured remarks have been made by thoughtless people, than that simple device for woman's com fort—the hooped skirt. We always thought . fitvorably of hoops from early association with that glorious race of women, our revolutionary grandmo thers, when we listened to the descrip tion of one of those stately niinnots given in honor of the inauguration of Washington, as President of the Uni ted States. hoops wore invariably worn on all occasions of ceremony ; 'tie true we had no omnibuses or rail road ears in which women of bad 'wee. cling. and, often worse temper could display these accomplishments, by mistaking the vehicle for their own private carriage. should any hurried or wearied pedeStrian seek a seat, be aide them ; nor was it. then customary to go to marketer shepping in an eve ning or hall dress. Even on grand on eatintr, the train was looped up on one or both sides, beranse the wearer had the good sense to see that an a partment was of limited space ; and a man conk' not annihilate himself for her convenionee; hut the-hoops were ample, and grandly did they become the wearers; for they ton were grand and ample women. We have seen the costly brocades and the high heeled slippers; but:the hocps long since went into the oven or great Pritoklin or Ten Plate warmed the parlor or cooled the dinner in those primitive and anti. shoddy days. The hoops were made of snhetantial hickory; and we have often trapped rabbits on the very spot where some of them grew. The ladies were usually content • with three circle's, so disposed that they gave the most elegant and artis tie disposition of the rich and heavy fabrics, which, unlike most of the more. ern material, would almost stand alone without either the wearer or the hoops. In these days, when most, of the wearers were no strangers to a horse's 1 1 back, and the broom or bread tray, these cunningly devised little springy eirclets•that now give such an exquis ite and Venus like curve to the tourn oar as it sweeps .downward and falls into the grand and loop like folds of the • skirt, were entirely 'unknown.— You may completely clothe a barrel with the stoutest hickory without im pairing its excellence; .but we should be loth to waltz with a partner thus arrayed, even if our ardor in the dance would permit goy) ignpre the contact —VERskvaitte-. of the lower circles with our tibia and fibula, or (breathe it softly) our shins. Truth to speak - hoVieevei, dear la dies, the smaller circlei were quite unnecessary; for woni'eu' in these 'pH mitive days had a fairer chanee for life and beauty. Muscle and : superb out line were not considered Vulgar, nor did she of the, acuminated elbows, and epitomized bust and lipii have u Coed jutor in the crotchet needleand the vinegar bottle, neither malicious ridi cule of a young mimeo, whom nature had. formed as women ought to be formed, with the - vital organs, breasts and pelvis, adapted to the grand end and object of her creationthe crown• ing glory of her sex— a family of heal thy children. We consider the modern hooped skirt one of' the most admirably artist ic and health•saring. devices of our time. and no sensible person can fail to appreciate its benefit to the young girl or woman; we will giro our reasons t'or this opinion ; or course they will he entirely professional, fur we are no man tnilliner. It is conceded by all correct °beery. ere, 1111(1 fully recognized by our unat( • mists and gymnastic teachers, that the muscles of the thorax and its rip- pendages. the arms and abdomen, are not used more than one-fourth Iltt much by our modern women, as they are compelled to use those of the legs; nearly all the movements which our unfortunate young people ato permit ted to perform by the inexorable fiat of Japorlcadom, are what may be called passive ; her bands muat be rev; erently and lovingly f ,Ided aeroesher chest, in order that. their 'whiteness may not suffer by permitting the least motion; the lungs, of course, must be kept quiet, not only because she isnot allowed to walk fast 'enough to require , much air, but because the position'of the arms and the weight of the fore arm and hand resting on the lower , ribs, will not. allow the elevation, so , that the air flan 'enter the lower part of the lungs at all ; at best, but a sixth part of thoselifegiving organs are used, and only their upper part fully inflated ; now, If the hooped skirt be hooked to the 'jacket ,infour places, at least; and not left to rest upon the hips, the reader will perceive that, the baekbone and all the. Mileclos whiCh enclose and, steady both_ the great cav ities'of the body, and keep them ele gantly erect upon the hips, must carry both the hoops and the skirt; then these may be muds both light and el egant, or heavy end grand, as‘the sea son may require; while drawers of Material adapted to our severe winters may be artistically adjusted, and stipported, by suspenders, as complete ly to, protect ,and clothe the lirrhs, without.the necessity of the skirts so girding the body by drawn cords to keep them and the drawers in place, as not only seriously to cripple all the viscera, but, to interrupt the healthful action of the muscles of the abdoinen, • and worse than this, to compress alt the veins that carry back the Woo I from the lower limbs to tl.o heart for purification, and often, as we have seen, to render the integument below this girdle of many cords, very per cepithly dropsical: Every lady; ifshe will use her eyes, can see this fOr her- Self, the -.horrid 'marks" that they cause, she often laments. Now, read er, if the lungs are only used one sixth part, the muscles of the body scarcely at all, and the venous blood from the lower limbadirevented from returning at the full rate t,f five sixths of the speed intended • by nature, when you are walking even at the snail's pace you are allowed to, what must be the result on the nutrithin of the muscles of these limbs? for you know they act and grow by blood alone ; depend on . it, although you may make them drop sical and deceptive in size, they will not help you to dance us well, or to go up and down sutirs. And tide brinks us to another great evil. If we will sacrifice so much to brown stone froets and tho fancied no-. ,cessity cif fashionable streets,; must live in houses furnace warmed and eighteen feet by five stories high, for pity a sake, lot us so distribute the load of dress our climate requires as to allow every part of the' body to he used to carry it up stairs'; let the jack et or the shoulder strips give the chest its share of the work'; is a word, let our wives and daughters shoulder.their loads, if they would have their days prolonged in the land. if the ladies will pardon us, we will venture a hint, on, ,the dimensions of the skirt. „Its most excellent end is to insure the unrestricted , use of the limbs in walking ; it, must, therefore; be of sufficient dmituiter to alloW a full step and the necessary ; space for the under clothing; if it restricts the.stop•ill ,the least degree, it is too small ;• no We rose ebouhl be' a short r,7 ~.,.......,... . ~....„ .. step; the longer the step the more breadth required, the greater,develop ment of the thorax and•lungs; 'quick and energetic walkingovith the shoal. -fere thrown 'back, Will 4;19 as much for the growth ,of the vital organs as sing. ing; woman must:dress warmly, keep her feet dry, walk more, and eat mor9 ar she will never fulfill Oie great ob ject of her creation. , ' .

All who are acquainted with. the text books now in use in our schools, know that'in their arrangement they farm--.- as they ought to do,—a continued chain; each day's lesson- composes a link, and each preceding recitation prepares the pupil to better understand the lessons that 'To lose a sin gle dayovill break a, link of this chain and will increase the difficulty in pre paring the lessons for the following day. Noris . this'all; 'the pupil will soon lose his interest in his etudies, and will finally become discouraged, and neglect theni *itagether. "Bdu eation," says a late writer, "Is baser,- flatly progreisive, Consisting oft& se. flisarof regular processes, the latter al cfpyit depending upon the 'earlier-7' This being essentially true, it must fol- low that if previous principles are lost tie latter will be less clearly under stood; and if the absence be repeated very often; the pupil will Soon find himself surrounded by difficultioli from which it is impossible to , extricate him self, If parents would view this mat ter in its proper light, and estimate the loss their children Sustain Crete regularity, wo are "sure that they w'lti ondeaver to send to schobi more rept tarty. We will now notice the second evil arising from irregularity, viz: Ite in fluence upon the school.. _Did the e vile of irreivilarity - extend no ftirthir than we have described, the claims 'of the subject could not be urged` so strongly; but the whole school suffers thereby. Tbe classes become disar ranged, and, as a consequence, lose whatever interest they may have had in their (Undies.. A" scholar that Is it.. regnlar in attendance, cannot fail to become a "dead weight," and conse quently an incembranoe to - his , class, and a groat hindrance to their ad vancement. But the , pupils are not the sufferers alone; the teacher bears his part; it increases his labor,. for, it becomes necessary for hint to , repeat the explanations and / illustratiOna Of principles for the benefit , of the pupil that was absent; thus needlessly con- Burning his time. We have thns far endeavored to set . „ forth some of the evils arising front ir. regular attendance at school; and we havadwelt longer upon this part of the subject than we should, hoping to set forth these evils as fully as posii• ble, that those who have assisted in bringing them into the schoole, may take heed and reform. We will now offer a few suggestions to teachers, which we think would remedy those evils. We have already, intimated, that we consider. tho parent responsible, to a considerable degree, for irregular at tendance of his children at school. And we certainly do hint no injustice, when we charge him with being en tirely responsible; for, whoever may cause - the irregularity, whether it be parent or pupil, it is certain that the parent has the power, and should ro• me.iy the evil. We world, therefore, recommend, when irregularity °Acura, that the, teacher go,ami talkprivately with the parent upon the subject; and if it has arisen through , ir4iffer ence, ho should present, the .evils; Ping from it, and - if properly ; done, we think he must be an unreasonable Bee rent, indeed, who would not.ondeavor to xpform at once., ; If, upon the ,oth• 'er hand, thepnpil has been 'playing truant, and has , thris been . 099eivilig both parent and ,teso, 1 10 1 ; tbobs me* • ing would bring the.matter ; ligbt atonee- IB4Ridaso s Pr.74t.a 44 0 7.4 w with.a parent, ifqonduoteil ina, priop or.spirit,Opecially on dip yaplt of ,the pp r her, 440mq faPA. to hAyek ,ippt influence upon the children. ,Xfilaeb.' era would practipo. it rotor", ,t,hey j wonid ge,vorn, their i schools.witki 'kyiti 4481641- ty.
