The London Comic Almanac has somelex

and what he may not do, as follows. ' Those
who make it the apex of their ambition to
doe the genteel thing " alWays, , and who
are shocked at nothing so much as being
thought ".vulgar " in any sense, will, of
course, make these hints the subject of pro
found study :
" He may carry a brace of partridges, but
not a leg of ,mutton. k liemay be seen in the
omnibus, at the opera, but not on the box
'O en omnibus. He may be seen in a stall
inside the theatre, but not at a stall outside
of one. He may dust another person'a jack;
et; but must not, brush his own.
‘g He may kill a man in a dugl, but he
mustn't eat peas with his
_knife. He may
thrash a coal-heaver, but he mustn't ask
twice for soup. He may pay, his debts of
honor, but need not trouble himself about his
tradesmen's bills. He may drive a horse as
a jockey, but he mustn't exert himself in the
least as to , getting his living. He must
never forget what he owes to_ himself as a
gentlemin, but he need not mind what he
owes, as a gentleman, to his tailor. He may
do anything, or anybody, in- fact, wfio is
within the range of a gentleman—go through
the losolvent Debtors' Court, or turn billiard
maker ; but he must never, on any account,
carry a brown paper parcel, or appear io the

THE ENGLISH WOHAN;OF FASHION.
Lord Jeffrey in writing toa female' friend
in America, describes, vetyl happily, a first
class specimen of an English woman of fash
ion." 4 , Great quietness; simplicity and del
icacy of manners, with a certain\tloity. and
sell-possesion that puts vulgarity out of coun
tenance and keeps presumption in awe ; a
singularly sweet, soft and rather low voice,
with remarkable elqance and ease of dic
tion.; piTfect iaste in Wit,. and manners,
and conversation, but no \ loquacity, and
rather languid spirits ; a sort of indolent dis
dain of display and accomplishments ; an air
of great good nature and kindness, with but
too often .some heanlesness, duplicity and
ambition. 'these are some of the traits, and
such, I think . , as would strike an American.
You would think her rather cold and spirit
less, but she would predominate over you in
the long run ; and, indeed, is a very bewitch

than any . other;in the world ; but not better
nor happier' anti / am speaking of the very

ROGUES. AND LEARNING.
There is enough truth in these -remarks to
makeilieni readable.
We sometimes meet with persons 0. whose
sots are ct_ot bigger than the point of a,mus
quito's preboscis, , and whose only.,object i s
to drake and save money, who tell 'us that
Aearnin makes risen rogues,; that-it makes
them pi . * and lazy ; aiTtl that therefore,
they resole:to some dishonest means 'to -sig n
'eomplieh their living, rather than work. Ts
this MO? It is-well for every one who has
a wish , for human prosperity to inquire.--
For, it - true, let us make haste to pull down
our schoof,houses, burn our books, step every
printing [Hiss, and demolish every pulpit.—
or all .these unite in spreading the light of
knowlidge ! But let us examine facts'. Let
us look at history; the mirrors which reflect
a - true picture. We will here see that, in all
countries„ where the Mass of the people are
comparatively well educated, they are more
honest and eirtuoue than those of ignorant
states. Indeed. so powerful is each - lion as
a means of , national improvement,lhat, to ,
borrow thtlanguage 'of a late writer who has I
made an extended survey of the reLhtive state
of instruction and Social I% . elfare, in the-lead
ing nations of the world, if the different
countries of Ihe world be arranged according
to the stafr of education, they will a?so be
found to be arranged, with few exceptions, ac
cording to wealth, morals and general happi
ness." ,
The above =argument is frequently made
use of, but its absurdity is fasEibecoming too
Conspicuous, to deceive much longer. That
roguery follows Education, is a lie upon all
history and every days experience. That
" Indolenee " should be promoted, can be
proven very rarely. That a kind of Mush
room aristocracy, a species of contemptible
pride; sometimes is unduly' cultivated, or
improperly guarded against, by the tutors of
youth, may be true. This is no legitimate
fruit of EducatiOn,lbut a•kind of excrescence,
which, while it does but little harm, had bet
ter he lopped off, by proper tuition. But,
away with these trifling objections, and learn
to appreciate the truthful sentiment of the
poet in the following lines: .
CUltufe'S Hand
Sc.iltered Verdure ci7er the land ;
And smiles and fragrance wiles serene,
Where barren wild usurped the scene,
And such is Man; a soil that breeds,
On sweetest flowers, on wildest weeds,
Flowers lovely as the morning light,
Weeds deadly as an aromite
Just as the heart is trained to bear .
The poisonous weed, or flowers fair_
FRUITS OF EARLY RISING
The preface to the last volume of Rev.
Mr. Barnes' " Notes," which has just ap
peared, mentions a fact which is worthy of
being reinembered by those who are accus
tomed to excuse themselves from the perfor
mance of any great and useful work for the
" want of time." Dr. Barnes has published
in all sixteen volumes of biblical " Notes,"
during the composition of which he has had
the charge of a large congregation in Phila
delphia and yet he has not suffered his au
thorial labors to infringe upon his duties of
the pastoral office. Those sixteen volumes,
he informs us, " have all been written before
nine o'clock in the morning, and are the
fruits of early-rising,_between four and' five
o'clock." From the first he has made it an
invariable rule to cease writing at precisely
nine . o'clock ; and now he finds his formida
ble task accomplished, and has the-satisfac
tion of knowing that he has been permitted
to send , „fortli 250,00( 1 volumes of commen
tary on the New Testament,and that probably
a greater number has been published abroad.
All this has been accomplished in hours
which the majority of men waste in' bgd, in'
idleness, or getting ready for the , labors of
the day.—Neiv England Farmer.-

FARMER'S WEATHER-OME ER.
Comprising General Indications .and Local pre
dictionf respecting the Changes of Weather,
gathered during travels in Europe and Amer
ica.
BY A RURALIST.
" A rainbovi in the morning,
Is the Shepherd's warping,
But a rainbow et night,
Is the Shepherd's delight "
A rainbow in lair weather denotes foul—
if foul, fair weather will follow. A double
rainbow indicates much rain.
A predominance of the purple color on the
rainbow, snows, wind and rain—dark red,,
tempest—light red, wind—yellow, dry wea-.
Cher—green, rain—blue denotes that the air
is cleating.
If the Aurora Bt;realis appears after seve
ral warm days, it is generally succeeded by a
cloudiness of the air. It the Aurora Bore
alis has been considerable, either an increased
degree of cold is 'lmmediately produced, or
bodiesof ektuds are immediately formed.
ilia a very wet season the sky is tinged with
- a sea green color,- near the bottom, 'where it
ought to be blue, it shows that rain will
speedily follow, and increase ; when it is of
a deep dead blue, it is overcharged, and the
weather will be showery.
When the sun appears White at the setting
or goes down into a bank of clouds which
lie in the horizon, they indicate the approach
or continuance of bad weather.
When it, rains with.aa east wind, it will
probably continue twenty-four hours.
The harvest rains, when of long
.continu
ance, generally begih with the wind blowing
easterly-which
easterly—which gradually veers round to the
south—and the rains do not cease' until the
wind has got to the.mest, or a little south
west.. • -
While rain is falling, if any small space
of the sky is visible, it is almost a certain
sign that the rain will speedily cease.
If the clouds that move with the wind be
come stationary *hen they arrive at the part
of the horizon Ih t i is opposite the wind,
— st
and appear to mulate, they announce a
speedy fall of rain: e •
A frequent chadge of wind with an agita
tion of the clouds, denotes a sudden storm.
A fresh breeze generally springs up before
sunset, patticularly in the summer.
The weather usually clears up at noon—
but if it 'rains at midnight, it seldom clears
up till sunset.
The winds which begin to blow in the
daytime are much stronger and endure long
er than those which 'begin to blow only in
the night.
A hollow, or whistling wind denotes rain.
if the wind follow the course oftthe sun,
fair weather will 11511oiv.
Weather, either good or bad, which takes
place in the night time, is not generally . of
long duration—and for the most part, wind
is more uncommon in the night thin ID the
day time. Fine weather in the night with
scattered clouds does not last.
Violent winds prevail more in the vicinity
of mountains than is open plains.
A Venitian author says, " A sudden storm
from the north does not last three days."
If it thunders in December, moderate and
fine wea ther
s may be expected.
• If it thunders, at 'intervals, in the Spring
season, before the trees have acquired leaves,
cold weather is still 'to be expected.
Thunder in the morning denotes , wind at
noon—in the evening rain and tempest.
If in summer there be no thunder the en
suing fall and winter will be sickly.

HOW INDHO IS PREPARED.
The Indigo is shrub-like plant. two or ,
three fete high, , with delicate, blots green
leaves, which, at the harvest time, about the
month of August,' are cut off Close to the
stem, tied into bundles, and laid it green
wooden tubs. Planks are then laid on them.
and great stones Ito cause a pressure, and
then water .is_ poured ovet them, and sifter a
day or twi:Ohe 'limos begins to ferment. - -.
In this proceis of fermentation lies the prin;
cipal difficulty, an everything depends on
allowing it to con inue just the proper time.
When the Ovate has acquiretlti dark greea
color, it-is-poured IT into other tubs, mixed
with . limp,- and sti red with Wooden shovels
till a blue deposit separates. itself from the
1.:„
water, which is thin' allowed tO run- off.—
The remainingsubstanco, the indigo, is then
put Into linen bags through which the cools.
ture filters, and as i soon as the indigo is dry
and hard, it is broken into pieces and packed
up. Indigo' is cultivated in the East Indies
to a considerable ei l tent. -\
