MARIETTA, PA., SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1862.
Dressing with Taste
It is strange that, with all . the time
American women bestow upon dress, so
few know how to prepare a simple toi
lette with taste. To be well dressed
means, with most, to wear rich material,
made up in gorgeous style, and with all
the usual accessories of lace and jewel
ry, to add to the masmificence of the
general effect. - Never was a greater
mistake. To be well dressed is only to
have attire suited to time, place, and
circumstances, made in a becoming man
ner. This attire may be'a shilling cali
co or a rich silk, and yet in either, it is
adapted to the conditions we have men
tioned, a woman may be said to be well
dressed, -
Where household duties have to be
performed, and the care of children de
volves partly upon the mistress of the
house, a neat print dress fitted graceful
ly to the figure, is much better for morn
ing wear than the faded remains of a
more prdtentious costume. Nothing
looks more forlorn than to see a would
be lady, performing household offices, of
not the most refined character, in an old
torn or dirty silk dress, or a soiled and
draggled open wrapper.
One of the secrets of dressing well is
to dress appropriately, another to be
careful of the details, the, minutia cf the
toilette. Thorough personal cleanliness,
glossy well-byeshed hair, neat shoes and
stockings, are fully as essential to a good
personal appearance as the materiel and
fashion of the dress. Indeed, a lady,
who is particular in these miner mat
ters, can hardly eier be said to be ill
dressed. As this delicate refinement
will not only excuse faults, but naturally
show itself in the good taste which will
guide her selection, no matter how small
the coat may be.
Some persons have :an extreme horror
of being '!caught," Ca they call it, in a
morning dress. Why they should be so
sensitive on this point, it is difficult to
say. If it is clean, and adopted to the
work in which they are engaged, there
is no shame in wearing, and, above all,
if ought to be 'remembered that no at
tire is good enough for the family, which
is not good enough for mere acquaintan
ces who may Chance to favor you with
their society. It is much better to be
caught in a plain morning dress, than to
be caught very much oversdressed, as
some unlucky individuals are, at a small
evening party. In one case there is re
al cause for mortification, in the other
there is none.
Mothers should carefully impress this
lesson upon their daughters. Many a
young lady has lost an eligible match
through the discovery that the belle•of
the evening was the slattern of .the
morning, -and that she paid more atten
tion to the number of her flounces thin
the cleanliness of her person, more care
on the brilliance of her head-dress than
the condition of her hair.
DICNITV TAKEN DOWN.—Happening
in conversation a friend the other day
and, naturally, talking about the treat
ment Union soldiers reeeived from la
dies(?) of secesion proclivities, my friend
told me that, in Alexandria, the secess
ionists teach their children to throw
stones at and spit upon the Union
soldiers, and to call them by ol)probriolis
titles, which instructions the young re
bels generally carry out to the letter.
Among other things, I was ,told of a
very good joke which occurred there a
few days since. It appears the ladies(?)
are in the habit of, in various ways show
ing their contempt for the soldiers ; and
while one of them was passing a hospit
al on King street, showing them, by her
manoeuvres, that she despiSed them, she
held her dress somewhat higher than
monesty demands. Soldier, sitting with
some others outside the hospital, ex
claimed, "Whew ! what a dirty pair of
stockings I" which caused Miss She-cesh
to drop her crinoline instantly. .
Guess they had better see that they
have clean hose before they flirt their
dignity at Union
.soldiers.
Er The authorship of the popular
slangphrase : "I don't see has been
attributed to Lard Nelson. At the
battle of Copenhagen, Nelson, who was
-determined to continue the fight, but
whose attention had been called to a
signal of the commanding officer to cease
Hostilities, placed his hand over his good
eye, and pretending to look with his
blind one, said : don't see it."
• 0 - We have heard of ninny things -
on
which topers cOntrivo - to get drunk., but
of nothing so strange as that in the case
of James Quigley, who, as_reported, was
convicted •of having. got drunk: on the
testimony of two police offfeers. _They
must have had very strong breaths.-
le' We-find a very interesting letter
in The Press, from St. Petersburg, from
which we make the following extracts :
" By-invitation Mr. Cameron, our min
ister visited one of the country palaces
on last Subday (June 29th) and was in
troduced to the Empress. Mr. 13ayard
Taylor and Mr. Clay accompanied him,
and they were Met by-several of the im
perial carriages at the depot, and pro
ceeded to one of the palaces built by the
great Catharine. It is over 1,200 feet
in front, and -is surrounded by about
6,000 acres of park— such a park as those
who have not crossed the A_tlantic have
never been privileged to see
When the diplomatic party reached
the portals they were met by the usual
retinue of servants, or " gentlemen is
livery," wearing 'red coats and white
trowsers, eMbroidered with gold lace.
The Empress is a strict member of
the 'Greek Church; and when our minis
ter arrived was at worship: About
twelve o'clock they, were announced and
introduced by the master-of-ceremonies,
Count —. The Empress was 'attired
in a black silk robe, and in herdress dis
played not a single ornament, for the
mere ornament's sake. She spoke to
Mr. Cameron cordially and quietly in
English, marked with the German ac
cent, and very much, I am told, like
many of our Pennsylvanians of - German
descent in Lancaster, Burks, and Le
high. Her Majesty had but.one attend
ant—a lady dressed, like herself, in sim
ple black.
During the conversation the minister
asked the Empress to send the heir-ap.
parent to America, and described the
visit of the Prince of Wales, urging also
that the sympathy our people had re
ceived froth the Emperor in the begin
ning of the rebellion had made all.otie
papers. his' friends. Ile promised her,
too, such a reception as no one had met
with in America since the visit of La
fayette. She did not seetn'to think she
could.trust - the heir-apparent, bat said
that when her younger, son; whom she
has devoted to the navy, is old enough,
he should visit us. ,The Prince is ap
proaching his 2 Oth year, is very intelli
gent and manly in appearance, more so
than the English heir-apparent.
A ' Dutchman had two pigs—a
large one and a small one. The small
est being .the eldest, he was trying to
explain it to a customer, and did it in
this wise: "The little pig is the pig
gest.". crow, assuming
to correct him, said : •' You will excuse
him, his no speak as good English as me
—he no means to little pig is to piggest
but to youngest little pig he . i3 to

Cr The Postmaster of Paris, Illihois
has kept a memorandum of the different
ways of spelling the name of that office
upon letters received there within a few
mouths past, with the full owing result :
Parris, Parus, Paris, Pairia, Perris,
Parros, Pawris, Pairass, Pearice; Pea-

' Well, what next ?" said Mrs.'Par
tington, as she interrupted Ike, who was
reading the war news—"the piekets-were.
driven in five miles ? Bless my poor
soul, but that will make a strong fence•
I suppose they had to be driven id deep,
to keep the Sessionaders from digging
out under them."
A rogue asked charity on pretence
of being dumb. A lady having, asked
him, with equal simplicity and hu
manity, how/ long he 11.(1 been dumb,
he was thrown off his guard, and,' an
swered, " From birth; madam." " Poor
fellow l" said the lady, and gave him half
a crown
Cr." Loolk, here, you boy, you're an

munching candy with an infinite gusto
at the theatre the other evening. "No,

Cr "Have you ground -all the tools
right sharp . , as I told you this morning
when I went away ?" said'a carpenter
to a rather green lad whom he had taken
as an- apprentice. "All, but the hand
saw, sir," replied the lad sharply; "I ,
couldn't quite get all the gaps out of
that.
'Er " Will you have some catsup ?"
asked a . gentleinan of Aunt Prieilla, at
a dinner-table. " Dear me, no,", she re- .
pred,'with a shudder : " fond of cats

TWELVE WAYS OF CO3IMITTING SUICIDE.
1. Wearing thin shoes and. cotton
stockings upon damp nights and in cool
rainy weather: Wearing insufficient
clothing, and especially upon the Moths
and extremities. .
2. Leading a life of.enfeebling stupid
laziness, and.keeping the mind in an un
natural state of excitement reading ro
mances. Going to theatres, parties and
balls, in all sorts of weather, in the thin
nest possible dress. Dancing till in a
complete perspiration, and then going
home without sufficient over-garments
through the cold damp air.
3. Sleeping on feather beds in seven
by-nine bed-rooms, without ventilation at
the top of the windows, and - especially
with two or more persons in.the same
small unventilated bed-room.
4. Surfeiting on hot and very stimula
ting dinners: Eating in . a hurry, wit:fl
out half masticating your food, and .eat
ing heartily before going to bed every.
night, when the mind and body :are ex
hausted by the toils of the day and ex
citement of the evening. ,
5. Beginning in childhood on tea and
coffee, and going . from one step to an
other through chewing and smoking. to
bane°, and drinking-intoxicated liquors ;
by personal abuse, and physical and men
tal excessess of every description. - -
G. Marrying, in haste, and 'getting au
uncongenial companion, and living the
remainder elite 'in' mental 'dissatisfac
tion, cultivating ;jealousies and domestic
broils, and being always in a mental fer
ment.
7. Keeping children quiet by giving
them paregoric and cordial's, by -teach
ing them to suck candy, and by supply
ing them with raisins, nuts and rich cake.
When they are sick, by giving mercn
ry, tartar - emetic' and arsenic, under the
mistaken notion that they are medicines
and net'irritant poisons.
8. AlloWing the loNe of gain to
ab
sorb our minds, so as to leave no time
to attend to our health.. Vollowinz en
uuliehlthy occupation-because money can
be made by,it.
9. Tempting the appetite with bitters
and niceties when the stomach says No,
and by forcing food when, nature does
not demand and even rejects IL Ger
mandnizing -between Meals.
10. Contriving to keep in a; continual
Worry about something :or nothing.—:'
Giving way to fits of anger.
11, Being irregular in' all our habits ,
of-sleeping and eating and going to bed
at midnight and getting up at noon.—
Eating too much, to many kinds of food
and that Which is too highly seasoned.
12. Neglecting to take proper care, of
ourselie.S; • and net applying early for
medical advice when disease - first ap
pears.. - Taking celebrated quack medi
cines to a degree of making a drug-shop
of the body.
Glp - IA.N DEAD-110USES.—In_ many of
the towns of Germany, there is at the en
'treuce of the cemetry a building . called,
the Dead-]louse, where, at the request
of families, bodies may be deposited for
a few days before interment. By this
plan, the danger of burying ali've is pre
vented. That at Frankfort is the best
constructed place of the kind the
whole of the. Germanic Confederation.—
It consists of a central room, which
looks,, by as many windows, into twelve
smaller rooms. In each of them is an
iron. bedstead, on which the open coffin
is laid. Over. the head of the corpse
is sispended a small .cord, to, the end.
of Which are attached by wires, ten
brass thimbles; and• these are I.lace'd
on the ten fingers. of the body. Should
the slightest movement be made., a bell
would be rung and alarm a person sta
tioned by relays in the .central room
night and day, and who "is forced, by
a piece of ni. , chanisna to keep con
stantly awake. Since 1833, no instance
has ever occurred of the bell being
rung. Medicines, baths and other. re
medies, are always,,Lept in_readiness,
but never have been used ; and let du
ring that Wile thousands of bodies have
bad the thimbles placed on their fingers.
"Come hone, thy son," said a parent
•
to one who had been,allsent from ho - me
for Some time,- "come home, and: your
mother will kill the. fatted calf for you."
"Tell her not to do lt, father," replied
the-offspring, "foe have lived :on veal:

DEAD TO TILE LAW.—SOIIIO years ago a

counterfeiting by the Photographic pro

the counterfeiting photographer must,
remove the.red before be photographs
the rest of the bill, aild the -red must.
thou be printed in. -The colors formerly
used could all be readily removed, but it
was suggested by an eminent chemist
that the sesquioxide of chromium would
befound as permanent as tineblack ear
bow ink. This pigment has accordingly
been adopted, and hence the great quan
tity of green observable in modern bank'
notes, especially in the United States
Treasury notes.
The sesquiexide .of chromium resists
the action of all acids, except -boiling
nitric acid and that destroys the texture
of the bill. The only way-in which it
can be removed is by saponifying the
oil, which is employed as a medium to
attach it to the, paper and, as the same
medium is used for the carbon ink, if One

A. lisaomn,--Two hundred or more
loyal men, who had been 'compelled' to
hide themselves in the mountains ; thirty
or forty Miles' south of Decanter, Alaba
ma, were greatly relieved from their un
pleasant situatiOn and marched to Hunts
ville, under the' protection of an expe
dition sent to their aid by Cl. Straight,
of an Indiana regiment. When. the ex
pedition reached their \ section, not a
man of them was to be 'found at hom . e.
Their wives and daughters, however, ou
being apprized of the mission of the ; ,
Federal troops, put themselves at-once , =
on the move to conimnnicate..with . ths3
refugees. Col. Straight, in,hib • repiirt,
