the winds as well as the waters t.i distribute; .'
. those' genial favors to ' western Earopti. Du
ring the past winter this was displayed in a
' remarkable' manner. For about four weeki
easterly winds had prevailed in Great Britain '
and Ireland, during which period the warmth ;
' of the Gulf Stream was preventedfrom being'
wafted to those coasts. The resalt.was, that
the most intense cold within the memory 'of',
• s
man was experienced. there; ice formed inl
large quantities on the sea -coast; and, as a
, world's wonder, the navigation of the rivers
l
Thames and Mersey was greatly,' obstructed,
and the port of Liverpool almost; ice bound
for some days. In Ireland, the effecti, of this i
' sever cold was such,
that thouSatcds upon ,
' thousands of semi] birds—larks, thrushes, &e s '.
&c.,—which do not s migrate, were ! found dead ;
',in t e
fieldsiand Oh ,the AhwayS. In Scot-
• land, the effects , of this severe cold were mores
1 wonderful' still. Hugh Miller—that eminent ;
geologist and keen observer—in the Edit,-
burgh Witness . says, "the present • intense
frost—coincident :at new moon with a stream
' tide—has killed many of the.ittoral shell-fish I
around our shores, andshey now lie by thou-'
!sands and tens of thousands along the beach.'
On the beach below Portobello; and for at'
least a Mile on the western side of the 601,1.
they are chiefly of two species', So/eas Siliqua,
'or the edible spout fish or razor-fish, and Mass
' tea stultornm, or the fool's cockle,
both of!
' them . molluses, which burrow hi the sand
above the low-water line of stream tides. The
i spout-fishes, when first thrown ashore, vere I
carried away by pail and basketsfull by the'
poorer people; and yet of their shells enough
remain in the space of halt a mile to load sity
eral carts ; but the fishes themselves, devoured '•
by myriads of birds, chiefly, gulls, have al.'
1 ready disappeared. It is probable that both
, species will be less connnon on our coasts than •
heretofore, for-years to come ;, and th ss eir whole

There arc many sayings which have been I
repeated so many, times, b . y so many; persons,
that they have-grown, perforce, into proverbs.
And yet they may be at the bottom little bet- I
ter than popular delusions. We have all I
heard that "beauty unadorned is adorned the
most, but, like ,many wise saws of the kind, in
i _prose and verse, it is only partially true. ~It';
is not.our province to analyze the sources of!
I the beautiful, hut we go m strengly for the 1
"fitness of things:" We are contented that a
Hindoo.wdman should wrap a sheet about her
' body and throw the ends of it over her head.
, We think she would lie spoiled by stays and a
bonnet. But stays and bonnets become white
women, and the' most beantiful Woman ceases
to become so if she be badly dressed. And i
the converse of this is generally,true. A well ;
I dressed woman, however little she may be fa-'
voted by nature, ceases . to be plain. It is dif
ficult indeed to limit the extent to which a
woman by due attention to dress may imiirtive
her natural attractions, or obviate the disad
vantages under which she was born.
I There are some .ladies who argue that the
love which in any way depends upon such ac-
I cidents as the handiwork of the milliner,
the
dress-maker, or the shoemaker, is of very little
worth. .They know that there are better
things than dress, and quilfities more estima
ble than skill in attiring and adorning one's
self. They are conscious of being good wives,
excellent mothers; good economists--perkaps
pious sisters and charitable neighbors; and
they argue that these are the ;essentials for
which they ought to be appreciated by their
husbands. - i
But a man s not .necessarily a
trifler because he thinks that hii wife's virtues
• I are none the worse for a setting of comely ap
;rarel. Wordsworth we, think it is, who ,
' greatest of the philosophic poets as he is) '
}speaks of "delight in little . things" with feel
-1 ings the very reverse of contempt. One of 'a
I wife's first duties is to appear attractive in the
eyes of her husband. It was doubtless the I
design of Heaven in giving twin a helpmate
to satisfy his natural crating after the beauti.;
I ful, the graceful, and the gentle. And the
woman who practically ignores this,, forgets
I one of the greatest objects of her creation.
i True, it may be argued that taste in dress
1 is scarcely less I natural gift; than' personal
ibeauty. And to some extent , we stduqat.—

a strange tragedy in Simian life. In the vo

slowly enwrapped a beautiful brown monkey,
while last cries and struggles denoteci that I
came too late, even had I been prepared to do
battle with the reptile, in the cause of op
pressed innocence. The monkeys !ia. evident
alarm, ran hither and thither, mobbing and
mewing and chattering; but not one advanced
near the spot, where presently their poor com
panion became almost quite hidden from their
view in the embrace of its destroyer.
Determined to watch the procesi of the of
I quietly sat down until gradually the
monkey had teen moulded as it were into a '
proper condition for deglutition, for I could
hear the bones crack as they broke beneath
the pressure to which they were subjected;, ,
and ere long as the serpent began ; to untwist
its folds, I could admire at leisure the inagnift
cente of its glittering scales, that i shone like
some richly variegated metallic substance. I
shuddered as I beheld its grand and awful
head—the prominent orbits of thel eyes—and
the eyes themselves large, and lundnons with
fiery light, The creature was a least twen
ty feel in length, and was apparently famished
br a long fast. Perfectly heedless of the
noise made by the monkeys, it- unwound its
coils till the victim, now an unrecognizable
mass, lay before it lubricated tital tit to
be'received into the destroyer's ;stomach.—
When the reptile had fairly commenced its re

and swell, I retired from the arena, of conflict,
and hall of banquet, desirous of hionmoning
my friend to aid me in capturing
the 'sated gi

there would be no difficulty itt making a prize
of the serpent; and he entered into my plans
most willingly.
Accompanied by a' stout hiscar, bearing a
strong • cudgel and a sharp knife, tbr slaughter
and skinning, we lost no time in rfmching the

SIfiNiNG THE PLEDGE.—Rev. , ;John Abott,
the sailor-preacher, relates the following good .
story of one of his converts to Ternperance:—
Mr. Johnson, at the close of
. a cold water
lectUre, intimated that he must sign the pledge
in his own way, which he did in these words: •
Johnson pledge myselrto drink
no more intoxicating liquor for one year." .
Some thought he would not stick three days, •
others allowed him a week, and a few gave
hiro two weeks but the landlord knew him
best, and said he was good stuff, but at the
end of the year Bill would .be a soaker.
I3efore tic year was quite gone, Mr. John
son iv:kg asked by Mr. •Abott, ,
"Bill ain't you going to renew the pledge?"
"Well I dent kuow Jack, but what I will;
I have done pretty well so far.; Will you let me

'THECA . LIFOIII4IA C . ONDOR.—The high moun
tains of California are frequented by a species
of condor, which, although somewhat inferior
in size to the condor of the Andes, is probably
the largest bird to be found- Within the con
fines ot. the Golden State. A full , grown Cal- .
'Vomit' condor measures upwards of thirteen
feet from , tip to tip of its, wings, and when.in
its' favorite element, the air, is as graceful and
majestic as any bird in the world. They make
their homes upon the ledges of lofty rocks,
or in the Old deserted nests: of hawks and
eagles, upon the upper branches of lofty trees.
Their eggs are each about twelve ounces in
weight, and are said to be excellent eating.—
The barrels of the wing-feathers of the condor
are about four inches long and three eighths
of an inch in diameter, and are used by the
inhabitants of Northern Mexico to keep gold
dust in. .
