Heavy Shoes for the’ Ladles. Winter is coming, and we desire to say word or two to our lady readers about ■clothing the feet. When; the celebrated physician -Abernethy died, report' said, that beside -a will ofßome. interest to his heira, in a peculiary point of vie w, there was found emong his effects a sealed envelope, said to contain the secret of his great success m the healing art, and also a rule of living,the following of which will insure longevity. ■ -A. large price was paid for the sealed envelope. , It was found to contain only these- < words: “To insure * continued health and a ripe old age, keep, the head cool, the system open, and the feet warm.” ; :'V Dry feet are warm feet, generally, if ■the eystem is healthy. To keep the sys tem healthy,, the circulation must be good; The circulation is not good with out exercise, and exercise can, only be really , valuable when gotten up by walk ing. -.Riding in a carriage is not exercise at all; it is merely inhaling the air. This is very well ~as~ far" as itgoes, but the lungs are not in full play , without the individual is walking. Horseback exer cise is very good, and is an improvement on carriage riding, but it is not the kind cf health-creating play of the -muscles mature demands. It is action—action of the entire body—and walking 'only will will procure it. Now, the ladies of Eu rope, particularly those of England, un derstand this thing. They walk miles Ser day, and if any of our pale beauties esire to know how the English keep up their 'fine color, clear complexion and superb busts, we tell them that it i 3 out door exercise, walking , in the open air, filling the lungs with pure oxygen by the sun shines brigMly°amiuSe clear blue sky is above. This is the se cret of the rich blood of the English women, and their almost universally fine looks and matronly beauty at fifty, Tvhen at that age our American woman -are pale, sallow and wrinkled. To enjoy a walk thick soles are heeded. «tout, well fitting, calf skin high gaiters, neatly laced, will always “set ofl” a pretty foot, and improve a hotnely one. To guard that sensitive portion of the human frame (for the sole of the foot is keenly sensitive to the changes from heat to cold or dryness todampnessl.the boot sole should be thick, and as well made as human ingenuity can doit. Then even in moist weather, or in a rain storm, the foot Can be protected; that insured, all is well with the lady. Ladies, walk more; take long walks; ■get tired—no matter how tired—tired muscles, in any well woman eighteen to forty-eight only proven that they need to be used; flabby muscles prove that action is wanted, and such muscles also prove that the system lacks tone. They ■are like-a violin, with the keys loose; the strings are without vibration and the instrument is dead. Buy the best of calf half bqots, ladies: exercise in them till you are well enough to go out, well clad, in all weather. Wear no rubbers, if you can avoid'it. They are bad for the feet.. If you need to paddle in the slush and soft snowof spring, put on rubbers, for the feet must be kept warm -and dry, but use them as little as possi ble. Wear, when out of doors, soiled shoes; take all the open air exercise you can by walking, and you will be,in your old age, as fine iooking as you are now; and, moreover, the next generation will be as proud of you as the young fry of old England of their stately mothers. We have seen in Hyde Park, jLon.'on, on a fair day, hundreds of graV llmcthers, fresh and nearly hand some; and scores of mothers with mar riageable daughters, which, had we been in the marrying line, we should hardly haye known which to have popped the question to, so dazzling was the real beauty and youth of both. Odr American ladies can possess these charms and carry them into the age of three score, if they will walk more in the open air, and in hale daily the healthgiving properties which can be obtained in wearing out a I couple of pairs of tip top ten dollar gait- i ere per year. We hold that one ten dollar pair of walking shoes will save twenty doctors’ visits atfive dollars each. Take your choice, ladies. , Xost Arte. In regard to colors we are far behind "the ancients. None of the colors in the Egyptian paintings of thousands of . years ago are in the least faded; except the,-green* The Tyrian purple of the entombed city of Pompeii is as fresh to day as it was two thousand years ago. Same of the stueco, painted ages before the Christian era, broken up.and mixed, reverted to its original lustre.. And yet we pity the ignorance of the dark skinned children of the aneient Egypt. The colors upon the walls of Nero's festal vaults are as fresh as if painted yesterday. So is the cheek of the Egyp tian prince who was contemporaneous with Solomon, and Cleopatra, at whose feet, Caesar laid the riches of his empire. And in regard to metals. The edges of the statues of the obelisks of Egypt, and of the ancient walls of Borne, are as sharp as if but hewn yesterday. And the stones still remain so closely fitted • that their seams, laid with mortar, can not be penetrated with the edge of a penknife. And their surface is exeed ingly hard, so hard that when the Erench artists engraved two lines upon the obelisk brought from Egypt, they - destroyed, in the tedious task, many of the best tools which can be manufac tured. And yet these monuments are traced all over with the inscriptions ; placed upon them in olden time. This, with other facts of a striking character, prove that they were far more skilled in metals than we are. Quite recently it is recorded that when an American vessel, was on the shores of Africa, a son of that benighted region made from an iron hoop a knife superior to any on board of the vessel, and another made a sword of Damascus excellence from a piece of iron. . Fiction is very old; Scott had his counterpart two thousand years.ago. A story is told of a warrior who had not time to wait for. the proper forging of his weapon, but seized it red -hot, rode for ward, but found to his Surprise that the cool air had tempered his iron into an* excellent steel weapon. The tempering of steel, therefore, which was hew to us a century since, was old 1 two thousand years ago. - : Ventilatiffh is deemed a very modern art., But this is not the fact, for aper tures, unquestionably made for the pur- 1 pose of ventilation, are found in the pyramid tombs of Egypt. Yes, thou sands of yeam ago the barbarous Pagans wentso far to ventilate their tombs,while ■we yet scarcely know how to ventilate our houses. THE DAIEY EV^ffTNGEUfctETm-PflrLADffliPßlA, SATUitPA*. ' ; . .:‘- r t. ". . 1 * The Davenport lowa Disaster—Three Per . sons Burned to Death. The following details-of a fire which occurred in Davenport, lowa, on the “orning of the s '9th instant, and by. which three persons lost tbeir lives,.and a fourth was fatally burned, are gath ered from thv’GazeUe of that eity. : , A family named Miller, Consisting of husband and wife/ five children and the mother of Mrs. Miller, Mrs.- Julia Ann Cahill, resided just outside the city limits, in a small orie-and-a-half story frame . house.'- Aijout four o’clock, on the morning above named, the 'family were aroused from their slumbers by a discovery of fire in the rloft where Mrs. Cahill and three of the children were sleeping. Mr. Miller tried to put out the fire by buckets of water, but his efforts were fruitless, anc. he was compelled to leave the house in ' his night dress. Mrs. Miller pre viously escaped with her two youngest children who slept with her in the lower part of the house. Going to the end of the house, where there was- a window, Miller saw Mrs. Cahill and the children surrounded by flame. Instantly the window was dashed out by theoldest boy, Richard, aged 12 years, who threw himself out, falling, terribly burned and bruised, upon the frozen ground. The morning was intensely cold, and there was quite a breeze blowing, and 1 in a few minutes the flames had spread to every portion of the.building. Mrs. Miller took up her three children, the oldest boy, who had thrown himself out of the window, her little daughter and the baby, and started with them to the residence of Mr. McLaughlin, her sister’s husband, who lived nearly a quarter of a mile distant and who were their nearest'neighbors, carrying her three children -nearly the entire dis tance. Arousing the family, they ren dered her all the ‘ assistance and relief possible. Mr. Miller remained at the house, endeavoring to rescue the other children and their: grandmother, but without avail. The neighbors arrived only in time to see the floor of the upper story fall through, carrying with it the Temains of the three persons who had fallen helpless near the upper window. The members of the family who escaped were badly frostbitten, none of them having had time to dress. A messenger was dispatched for a physician, and all that could be, was done to relieve the physical suffering of the dis tressed family.. The eldest boy, Richard, was found terribly burned, and cannot survive; he was conscious,but insensible of pain from the nature of his severe in juries. He told the doctor that he was awakened by the stifling smoke, that he called his grandmotherand the children, and then jumped out of the window. The last he saw of them, the grandmother was getting the children in her arms. Mrs. Cahill,-who perished-in the, burn-, ing building, was-70yearsUof age..-'Her . grandchildren, .James, aged 8, and Ed ward, aged 6 years, also shared the same fate. Besides the loss of life and the grief consequent thereupon, the family have lost all their worldly goods, not even having saved clothing enough to cover them. The neighbors, however, were kindly caring for them. Ijimiqbation to Louisiana.— Tho Ope lousas Sentinel of the Bth claims that the tide is rising in that parish. It is not the <ide water, but the tide of immigration. Men who have been over Texas looking for nemes, have come back by way of St. Landry, and evince a determination to buy and settle there. It thinks SL Landry will -ioon recover its before-the-war numbers, and ere long be far more populous and prosperous.
