Dr. Child's faith in the laws of caloric (laws
which govern the most of our well-being, from
the service of the trade-winds to the ventilation
of our buildings), have failed him if the flames
bad prevailed and stopped the declamation of his
text? In these days, whew the forces of nature
are left to their own impetus, we do not expect
the salvation of individual Shildracks and Abed
negos. We rely more on the good of the great
est number and the gain to a cause from an oc
casional martyr, .coupled with the strict bully
ing of most Nebuchadnezzars by ' the Eng
lish or Weeldnktort governments. The
Latin or Anglo-Saxon mind, with its faculty for
pollee, statistics ; averages, and. Mr. Buckle's
theory, has slightly changed the note struck by
the Seven-times-heated 'children. It strives to
cetzpenpate, by its taste for th&ordering of vast
Masses, linn loss of the paternal Eastern des
pothms with. their constant craving for interven
tion and miracle. The bright infancy of the
'eworld tuts passed. This chilly Latin or Gothic
mind contemplates with unmoved serenity, the
"---maysfly torn by the sparrow, the sparrow
pierced by the shrike,"
it sees with nothing but a shrug the late-hatched
. swallows perishing because the migratory was a
little stronger than the parental, instinct with
their mothers. At the same time, unlike the ex
cellent Dr. Clailde- this- modern - mind refuses to
kindle itself over the fish-haivk,who so unerringly
pinnies its prey, because it is unable completely
to forget the less-amusing fish that gasps within
'its teak. It tries, not to measnre,but to compre
hend the plan of Nature, and consider
the secret meaning in. her deeds, ,although,
indeed, it finds that out of - fifty seeds
she oft( n brings but one to bear. Left to itself,
this calculating modern spirit makes bad work
arcong, the tender enthusiasms of men like Dr.
Child. Coming round again, it detects, with •
him, numberless happy coincidences, protecting
instincts, end what not, which go far to keep up
the serenity of Eden in this active natural world
around us. Still, it never believes but that the
beast of prey possessed, even 11?. the
balmy Ebades of Eden, its incisive todth,
its contracted duodenum, its sharp sense, and its
instinct for hypocrisy. Here is where stand the
greatestsmariber of the men of science of today.
We believe, however,that there is a higher stand
point yet to attain, and that the philosophy of
the future, leaving under it alike the amiable
partizanship of our Dr. Childs, and the merely
intellectual speculations of our Darwins, will re
turn upon itself in one of those vast spirals
.whieb thought is said to pursue, and repose on
ground where nature and revelation will meet.
The charming observations so predfily ar
ranged by Dr. Child will be of real assistance to
those who wish to study out this subject a little
further than he has done. The volume is a use- •

to "exercise a living power by bringing us into

human nature and human life, and by showing

fresh mind intent to reconcile the
bearings of our oriental faith upon our

that ono of the foremost anti most htimanc

is excellent.
The Girl tot the Period.
Time was when the stereotyped phrase, "a
fair 3 hung English girl," meant the Mehl of
womanhood; to us, at least, of home birth
and biteding. It meant a creature generous,
• capable and modest: something franker than
a Frenchwoman, more to be trusted than an
Italian ' —as brave as an American, but more
refined, as domestic as a German and more
ce41:111. it meant a girl who 'could bp
d alone if needle, because of the lunge
it*itYand dignity of her nature, but who
wAluiither bold in bearing nor masculine in
vidiali,a; girl who, when she married; would
iiieslier husband's friend and companion, but

ad the pick of *cation in this fair young
English girl of out's, and envied no othermen
their own. We admired the languid grace
and subtle fire of the South; the docility and
affeetionateness of the East seemed
to us sweet and simple and restful;
the vivacious . sparkle of the trim and
sprightly Parislenne was a pleasant
little excitement when we met with it in
its .own domain; bat our allegiance never
wandered from our brown-haired girls at
home, and our hearts were less vagrant than
qur fancies. This was in the old time, and
when English girls were content to be what
God and nature had: made them. Of late
years we have changed the pattern, and have
given to the world a race of women as ut
terly unlike the old insular ideal as if we had
created another nation altogether. The girl
of the period, and the fair young English girl
of the past, have nothing in common save an
cestry and their mother-tongue; and even of
this last the modern version makes almost a
new language through the copious additions
it has received from the current slang of the
day.
The girl of the period is a creature who
dyes her hair and paints her face, as the first
articles of her personal religion; whose sole
idea of life is plenty of fun and luxury; and
whose dress is the object of such thought and
intellect as she possesses. Her main en
deavor in this is to outvie her neighbors in
the extravagance of fashion. No matter
whether, as in the time of crinolines, she
sacrificed decency, or, as now, in the time of
trains, she sacrifices cleanliness; no matter
either, whether she makes herself a nuisance
and an inconvenience to everyone she
meets. The girl of the period has done
away with such moral raffishness as consi
deration for others, or regard for counsel and
rebuke. It was all very well in old-fashioned
times, when fathers and mothers had some
authority and were treated with respect, to
be, tutored and made to obey, but she is far
too fast and flourishing to be stopped in mid
career by these-slow old-morals; _ands as-she
• dresses to please herself, she does not care if
-he displeases everyone •else. Nothing is
-too extraordinary and - nothing too
exaggerated for her vitiated taste;
and things which in • them ielves
would be useful reforms if let alone become
monstrosities worse than. those which they
have displaced so soon as she begins to ma
nipulate and i.nprove. If a sensible fashion
lifts the worn out of the mud, she stases hers
midway to her knee. If the absurd structure
of wile and buckram, once called a bonnet,
is modified to something that shall protect, the
wearer's face without putting out the eyes of
her coin 1:idol - I, she cuts' hers down to four
'straws and a rosebud, or a tag of lace and a
bunch of glass heads.
•If there is a reaction against an excess of
Rowland's Macassar. and hair shiny and
toicky with grease is 'thought less nice than
if left clean and healthily crisp, she dries and
frizzes and sticks hers out on end like certain
savages in Africa, or lets it wander down her,
back like Madge Wildfire's, and thinks her
self all the more beautiful the nearer she ap
proaches in look to a maniac or a ncgress.
.Widte purity of taste she has lost also that far
more precious purity and delicacy of percep
tion which sometimes means more than ap
pears on the surface. What the della-monde
does in ha frantic efforts to excite
attention, she also does iu imita
tion. If' some fashionable df.vergon
cli'e, en evidence is reported to haVe come
out with her dress below her shoulder-blades,
and a gold strap for all the sleeve thought
necessary, the eirl of the period follows suit
next day ; and then wonders that men some
times intsteke her for her prototype, or that
mothers of girls not quite so far gone as her
self refuse her as a companion for their daugh
ters. She has blunted the fine edges or rei2t.
ing so much that she cannot understand why
the should be condemned for an imitation of
form which dues nut include imitation of
fact ; she cannot be made to see that modesty
of,appearsnce and virtue ought to be insepar
able, and that no good girl can afibrd to ap
pear bad, under penalty of receiving the coa
terniit awarded to the bad. . .
This imitation •of the ilrmi-riiouric in
dress leads to something in manner and feel-
Mg, not quite so pronounced, perhaps, but
far too like to be honorable to herself or satis
factory to her friends.. It leads to slang, bold
talk, and fastness ; to the love of pleasure
and inciffereuce to duty ; to the desire of
meaty klore either love or happiness ; to
uselessness at home, dissatisfaction with the
monotony of ordinary lite, and horror of all
useful wink; in a word, to the worst forms
of luxury an i selfishness, to the most fatal
elkets arising from want of high principle
and absence of tender feeling.
The girl of the period envies the queens of
the demimonde far more than she abhors
them.. .she sees them gorgeously attired and
sumptuously uppoiuted,'and she knows them
to be flattered, j: led, and courted with a cer
tain disdainful admiration of which she catches
only the mind' ation while she ignores the dis
dain. They have all for which her soul
is hungering, and she never stops
to reflect at what a price they have
bought their gains, and what tear
ful moral penalties they pay fbr their sun
tams pleasures. She sees only the coarse
gilding on the base token, and shuts her eyes
to the hideous figure in the midst, and the
foul legend written round the edge. It is
this envy of the pleasures, and indifference to
the sins, of these women of the demi-monde
which is doing such infinite mischief to the
modern girl. They brush too closely by each
other, if not in actual deeds, yet in aims and
feelings; for the luxury which is bought by
vice with the one is the thing of all in life
most passionntely desired by the other,though
she is not yet prepared to pay quite the same
price. Unfortunately.she has already paid too
that once gave her distinctive
national character. No one can say of the
modern Engl;sll girl that she is tender,
loving, roiritig or domestic. The old fault
so oh en tbund by kern-sighted Frenchwomen,
flint she was so fatally romanesque, so
prone to Famine° appearances and social ad
yuntogea for love, will never be set down to
the girl of the period. Love indeed is the
last thing she thinks of, and the least of the
dangers besetting her. Love in a cottage,
that seductive dream which used to vex the
heart and disturb the calculations of prudent
mothers, is now a myth of past ages. The
legal barter, of herself for so much money,
representing se much dash, so much luxury
and pleasure,—that is her idea of marriage;
the only idea worth entertaining.
For all seriousness of' thought respecting
the duties or the consequences "Of marriage,
she has not a trace. If children come, they
find but a stepmother's cold welcome from
her; and if her husband thinks that he has
married anything that is to belong to hitri—a

happy--the sooner he wakes from his haft. ,

whatever cost of shocked self-love or pained
modesty it may be, it cannot be too plainly
told , to the•modern English girl that the net
result of her present manner of life is to as
similate her as nearly as possible to a class of
women whom we must not call by their proper
—or improper—name. And we are willing to
believe that she has still some modesty of soul
left hidden under all this effrontery of
fashion, and that, if she could be made to see
herself as she appears to the eyes of men, she.
would mend her ways before too late.
It is terribly significant of the present state
of Wags when men are free to write as-they
do of the women of their own nation. Every
word of censure flung against them is two
edged, and wounds those who condemn as
much as those who are condemned; for surely
it need hardly be said that mon hold
nothing so dear as the honor of their
women, and that no ono living
would willingly lower the repute of his
mother or his sisters. It is only when
these have placed themselves beyond the pale
of masculine respect that such things could
be written as are written noW; when they
become again what they were once they will
gather round them the love and homage and
chivalrous devotion which were then an Eng
lishwoman's naturalinheritance: -The marvel; -
in the present fashion of life among women, is
howbt holds its ground in spite of the disap
probation of men. It used to be an old-time
notion that the sexes were made for each •
other, and it was only natural for them to
please each other, and to set themselves out
for that end. But the girl of the period does
not please men. She pleases them as little as
she elevates them; and how little she does
that, the class of women she has taken as her
model of itself testifies. All men whose
opinion worth having prefer the simple and
genuine girl of the past, with her tender little
ways and pretty bashful modesties, to this
loud and rampant modernization, with her
false red hair and painted skin, talking slang
as glibly as a man, and by preference leading
the conversation to doubtful subjects. She
thinks she is piquante and exciting
when she thus makes herself the bad copy
of a worse original; and she will not see that
though men laugh with her they do not re
spect her; though they flirt with her they do
not marry her; she will not belieVe that she
is not the kind of thing they want, and that
she is acting against nature and her own in
terest when she disregards their advice and
offends their taste. We do not see .how she
makes out her account, viewing her lift: from
any side; but all we can do is to wait pa
tiently until the national madnesi has passed,
and our women have come back again to
the old English ideal,once the most beautiful,
the most modest, and most essentially wo
manly in the world.—AS'atu,rday Review.
In all countries there are records of the
excessive fondness of great men for oysters.
Cervantes was an oyster lover, and he
satirized the oyster-dealers -- of Spain. Ifll - ds
XI., careful lest scholarship should become
deficient in France, feasted the learned
doctors of Narbonne once a ,year on oysters;
and another Louis invested his coot with
an older of nobility as a reward for his
oyster cooking. Napoleon was also an
oyster-lover; so was Rousseau; and Turgot
used to eat a hundred or two just to whet
his appetite for breakfast. Invitations to
a dish of oysters were common in the lite
rary and artistic circles of Paris at the
latter end of tLe last century. The Ency
clopedists were particularly fond of oysters.
Helvetius, Diderot, tht Abbe Raynal, Vol
taire, and others were confirmed oystermen.
Before the revolution the violent politicians
were in the habit of constantly frequently the
Parisian oyster shops; and Danton, Robe
spierre and others were kind of the oyster in
their days of innocence. The great Napo
leon, on the eve of his battles, used to 'par
take of the bivalve; and Cambaceres was
famous for his shellfish banquets. Even at
thin day the consumption of oysters in
Paris is enormous. According to recent
statistics, the quantity eaten there is one mil-'
lion a day.
Among the. English celebrities, Alexander
Pope was an oyster eater of taste; so was
Dean Swift, who was fond of lobsters as well.
Thomson, of "The Seasons," who knew all
good things, knew how good a thing an oys
ter - was. The learned Dr. Richard Bently
could never pass an oyster-shop without
having a few ; and there have been hundreds
of subsequent Englishmen who, without
coming up to Bently in other respects, have
resembled him in this. The other Scottish
philosophers, too, of the last century—flume,
Dugald' Stewart, Cullen, &c.—used fre
quently to indulge in the " whis
ker° pandores " of the day and generation.
"Oyster-plays," as they were called, were fre
quently held in the quaint aryl dingy taverns
of the old town of Edinburgh. These Edin
burgh oyster taverns of the old time were
usually situated under ground in the cellar
floor; and even in the course of long winter
evenings the carriages of the quality folks
would be found rattling up and setting down
fashionable ladies, to partake of oysters and
porter, plenteously but rudely served, What
oysters have been to the intellect of Edin
burgh in later times, who needs to be told that
has heard of Christopher North and read the
"Nodes Ambrosianie?"
A MONG the few foreign pictures which will
figure in the coming exhibition of the
Academy of Design will be two portraits by
Cahanel, the distinguished French artist to
whom was awarded one of the eight grand
nit dais df honor at the Paris Exposition.
There his life size full length . portrait of the
Emperor was ,a prominent attraction in the
section of the Beaux Arts.
.The pictures arc
life size heads of the inventor of the reaper,
Dr. B. IL McCormick, and of his wife. The
one of Mr. , McCorinick is a striking likeness,
painted with great care and skilfully modelled.
The artist has introduced the red ribbon of
the Legion of Honor given by the Emperor
to Mr. McCormick in recognition of his great
invention. The portrait of the lady is a pic
ture of great refinement, simple and Classical
In treatment, with: the character delicately
rendered, doing justice to the fair original,
and singularly like the bust of this lady
