Venus, the embodiment of female beauty, was anciently represented as having arisen from the sea. This is another way of saying that cleanliness is necessary to beauty. A hand lelt unwashed for a iew days becomes ugly and repulsive. If one can conceive of a face left unwashed for a week, we must imagine very far from beautiful. A freshly washed face looks more Handsome than at any other time. But is in vain to wash the few square inches of skin we have in sight, if the vastly larger area we cover with our dress is left from day to day, and -week to week, uncleaned frpm its con stantly accumulating impurities. The health, and consequently the clearness and freshness of the skin, require that every square inch, nay every pore, should be in the best condition, and that cannot be if a single pore is left clogged with the impure matter which is continually passing from the sys tem. But the action of water upon the skin, es pecially cold water, seems to be more important even than its first office of cleansing it from impur ities. The rain bathes the lovely rose bush, washes it from the dust, but it also refreshes and enlivens every leaf and petal. So. a cold bath not only cleanses the skin from its impurities, but gives it tone, strength and smoothness, like a rose just washed by a shower. Bathing, in all countries where beauty has been esteemed, and health is the fountain of beauty, has been considered the first necessity of life. I have knowui ladies, jaded, diseased, miserable, and looking as badly as they felt, becomq fresh, rosy, bright, and healthy, after a few months of systematic bath ing—a thorough purification and renovation of the skin, with a consequent increase of vivacity, strength, grace of action and expression. This is such'a remarkable effect of the water cure, which consists mainly in a certain regular and prescribed series of bathings, that ladies w’ould resort to it lor the improvement of their looks it the recovery of their health were not a necessary, concomitant. * V : IHiss Bremer on Married Men. The Boston Atlas says that Benedicks should make the accomplished Swede their best bow, and give her a piece of plate, in token ol their thanks for the following hearty testimony in their favor as a class. Moreover, the# should all join fervently in the wish that her tinie may come soon, to enjoy what she appears so soulfully to appreciate, the value of a good married man. She 'says: “I confess, then, that I never find, and never have found, a man more loveable, more captivating, than when ho is a married man; that is to say, a good married man. A mail -is never so handsome, never so perfect, \h my eyes, us when he is married—as when he is a husband, and the father of a family— supporting in his manly arms wife and children'; and the whole domestic circle, which, in his en trance into the married"*state, closed around him, and constitute a part of his home and his world.— He is not merely ennobled by this position, but he is actually beautified by it. Then he appears to me as the crown of creation; and it is only such a man as this who is dangerous to me, and with whom lam inclined to fall in love. But then pro priety forbids it. * And Moses and all European legislators declare it to be sinful, and all married women would consider it a sacred duty, to stone me. Nevertheless I cannot prevent the thing. It is so and cannot be otherwise ; and my only hope of appeasing those who are excited against me is my further confession, that no love affects me so pleasantly; the contemplation of no happiness •makes so happy, as that between married people.— It seems to me that I, living unmarried, or mate less, have with that happiness little to do; hut it is so, and it always was so.” Reduction of Tolls on the Public WonKS. As was anticipated in the notice of the Harrisburg Keystone of the meeting between the Pennsylvania Canal Commissioners and the agents of the Trans portation Lines, the wishes of the latter were acce* ded to, and an additional reduction oi tolls granted by the board. In consequence the transporters have reduced the rate of freight, and are now car rying goods to Pittsburg at 75 cents per hundred.- The; Keystone adds: “ Whether they can carry at this low rate suc cessfully, anil whether the present low rates of . .tolls can be maintained, will of course depend on the increased amount of business which may lesnlt * from the reduction. There can be no doubt that . a.Jow rate of tolls and freight, calculated to bring a large amount of business, is the correct policy; ’-but there is a limit at which .even an increase of business ceases to be durable, unless accompanied by an increased compensation. The extremely low rates at which the New York lines are now carry ing, are not likely t(&be permanent; it is a spas^ 7 modic eflbct to draw the trade from .other routes, with the hope of retaining it hereafter upon more favorable terms; if our transporters and She Penn sylvania Railroad Company can defeat the present movement, there will be little fear of their being able to compete successfully with their rivals here, after. The completion of the Pennsylvania Rail road, and of the road to avoid the planes on the Portage Road, will so far diminish the time and expense of transportation, and increase the capacity of our public works and the facilities of the trans porters, as with the natural advantages possessed by the route through Pennsylvania, to give , that route a decided advantage over all others, and enable those who use it to compete successfully for the carrying trade of the great West” Opposed to Matrimony. [ Yankee scene .from the Drama of “ The N. Y. Firc~ men , or the Heiress of Bond Sheet f‘ “ Is your family opposed to matrimony?'’ “ Wal, no, I rather guess not seein’ as how my mother has had four, husbands, and stands a pretty smart chance of havin’ another.” “ Four Husbands! Is it possible?’^ “0, yes. You 6ee, my mother’s christened name was Mehitable Sheet, an’ dad s name w’as Jacob Press; an’ when they got married the printers said it w’as puttin’ the sheets to press. When I was born they said I was the first edition. An’ you see mother used to be the tarnalist critter for evenin’ meetings. She used to go out pretty late every night, and dad was afraid I’d get in the same habit, •so he used to put me to bed at early candle lighr, cover me over with a pillar an’ put me to sleep with a hoot jack. Wal, dad had to get up every night to let mother in ; if he didn’t get down and open the door pretty darned quick when she cum, he’d ketch particular thunder, so dad used to sleep w’ith bis head out of the w’inder, so’s to wake up quick, an’ one night he got his head a little too far out an’he slipped out altogether; and down dad cum, caflumux right on the pavement, an’ smashed into ten thousand pieces.” “ What! was he kilted by the fall? “ Wal no, not exactly by the fall. I rather kind er sorter guess as how .it was the sudden fetch up on the pavement that killed - him. But mam she cum hum, an’ found him lyin’ thar, and she had him swept up together, an’ putin a coffin an’ had a hole dug in the burying ground, an’ had put in an’ buried, up, an’ had oak plank put up to his head and had it white washed all over for a tombstone.” “ So your mother was left a poor lone widow.” “Wal, yes, but she didn’t mind that much jit wasn’t long before she married Hide because he was just dad’6 size, and she wanted him to wear out dad’s old clothes. Wal, the way old Hide used to hide me was a ’ caution to my hide. Hide had a ieetle the toughest hide of any hide except a bull’s hide, and the way Hide used to hide away liquor in his hide was a caution even' to a bulls hide. Wal, one cold day, old Hide got his hide so tarnal full o’ whiskey that he pitched head first into a snow bank where he stuck an’ friz to death. So mam had him pulled out, an’ laid out, an’ then had another hole • dug in the buryin’ ground, an’ had him buried, an’ than she had another white oak plank put up at his head an’ whitewashed all over an’—” . “So your mother was again a widow.” “ 0, yes, but I guess she didn’t lay awake nights long, to think about it, for in about three weeks she married John Strong—an’ he was the strongest headed cuss you ever did see. He‘ went a fish in’ the other day, an’ got drowned, and he was so tar nal strong headed, I’ll be. darned to darnation if he didn't float right again the currenf, and they found hirn three mjles up stream, an’ it took three yoke o’ cattle to haul him out. Wal, mam had him buried along side o’ tu.ther t\yo, an’ had a white oak. plank put up at his head, an’ white washed all over nice, an’ so there’s three on’ em, all in a row—” “ And your mother was a widow for the third time.” a “Yes, but mam didn’t seem to mind it a tarnal sight. The next feller she married was Jacob Hayse, and-the way mam d&es make him haze is a caution, now I tell ye. If he does any a leetle out o’ the way, mam makes him take "a bucket and whitebrush and go right , up to the burying ground, and whitewash the three oak planks, jest to let him know what he may come to when she’s planted him in the same row ; an’ got married to the fifth husband. So you see my family arn’t a ’tarnal sight opposed to a dose of matrimony.” The Island of Cuba. The late accounts of a revolution in this Island have rendered it quite an object of public interest in this country. It would, therefore, seem desira ble that *the resources and position ol the Island should be properly understood. It is'situated be tween 23 deg. 12 min. and 19 deg. 43 min. N. lat. Its length is 770 English miles —its breadth varies 25 to 90 miles, and it measures on its surface, about 4000 English square mifiis. Of 24 millions acres comprising the surface ol the island, only two millions are under cultivation. Its position is admirable, being within a few days sail of the At lantic ports of the United States, and two and a half days by steam from New Orleans. The eastern part is very mountainous, and some ol the peaks, are from 7000 to $OOO feet above the level of the sea. The valleys in the eastern department are exceedingly picturesque and fruitful. The princi pal agricultural productions are, the sugar cane coffee, molasses, honey, rum, tobacco, wax, rice, cocoa, cotton, together "with all kinds of tropical fruits, sweet potatoes, yams, arrowroot, cocoa, In dian corn, castor oil, and different kinds ol woods, such as cedar, mahogany, lancewood, and other hard wood used by turners, etc. In 1841, the number of sugar estates on the island amounted to i,235, upon which were'employed, 138,701 per sons. Wax is produced to the amount of about SOOjOOO pounds, and honey to the amount of two million gallons. Cattle to the number of about 900,00 head are owned in the island, and there are about 200,000 horses, and 50,000 mules. In minerals, the island is very rich; of copper mines no less than 114 mines have been discovered in the island, 47 in the Eastern Department, 18 in the Cential and 45 in Western. The mine at Cobre, worked by an English company, has ship ped from 27, to 43,000 tons per annum. Coal, •iron, silver, and amianthus have been discovered.— The revenue of the island, is about $12,000,000. — The population is about 1,200,000. Cuba was discovered by Columbus on the 27th of October,, 1492, when the island bad an Indian population of about 200,000. Only a few half breeds now re main in the Eastern Department. In 1519, Ha- 1 . vanawas founded. The English took it in 1762, and gave it up again in 17G3, in exchange for other possession and advantages. The late advices indicaf£ that the fires of liberty have been lighted in the fruitful vales of this queen of the Antilles, —not by* a band of adventurers from the United States, but by the hands ot her -own citizens who alone can render its glories per manent, and who seem now aware that “ those who would be' free themselves must strike the blo'w.” Couetino Scene. —Jonathan, do you love boiled beef and dumplins?

It is made en tirely of Iron, both Frame and Gearing. The Jour nals are Cast-Steel—its weight is 600 lbs.’ On trial : it has proved itself capable of performing from 50 to 100 per cent, more work than other Powers with the same labor of the team. It is warranted to hold 8 horses. I have also completed a combined THRESHER AND CLEANER, which is capable of Threshing and Cleaning from 300 to 500 bushels of wheat per day, with from 6 to 8 Horses, and an equal number of hands. 4 horses can thresh with it from 100 to 200 bushels per day of wheat, and. 400 to 500 of oats. It is very convenient for those who follow Threshing, and for two or more farmers to own in company; it is more convenient to move than any machine in use. The Machine stands on the wag on while threshing—the Power is loaded on the same wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient to move it; it will save enough labor in threaliing 2000 bushels to pay its extra cost. It will thresh in the field or by a stack as conveniently as in a barn. The cylinder and concave can readily be adjusted so as to thresh with equal facility both tough and dry grain.
