WHAT IA A WOMAN ?—Victor Hugo, who has been at an expense to popular ize himself as a poet with the female sex goes much further because he goes much deeper, titan the most malignant saint in the calende.r in his physiology of wo man. "A woman," observes the amia ble heir to the Provencial bards, "is simply a highly improved style of de mon." Alexander Dumas, the younger with whom pulmobary consumption is the only female religion, has uttered a great many ialpertinences concerning. women. "Heaven," he exclaims, "in its merciful providence, gave no beard to 'women, because it knew that they could not hold their tongues long enough to be shaved. "For the sake of women," observed the, same individual, "men dis honor themselves—kill themselves ; and in the midst of this universal carnage, the creature who brings it to pass has only one thought in her mind, which is to decide whether she shall dress herself so as to look like an umbrella or like a dinner-bell. CORNS CURED.—Hall's Journal of Health—good authority—gives UB this mode : The safest, the most accessible, and the most efficient cure of a corn on the toe, is to double a piece of thick, soft buckskin, cut a hole in it large enough to receive the corn, and bind it around the toe. If, in addition to this, the foot is soaked in warm water foi five or 'more minutes every morning and night, and a few drops of sweet oil or otheroily substance are patiently rubbed in on the end after the socking, the cora will almost infallibly become loose enough in a few days to be easily prick ed out with a finger nail ; this saves the necessity of paring the corn, which ope ration has sometimes been followed with painful and dangerous symptoms. If the corn becomes inconvenient again, repeat the process at once. or Keeping tools from rusting.—A mixture of three parts of lard and one of rosin, melted together, is one of the beet coatings for all steel or iron imple ments. The lard makes the rosin soft, while the latter is a sure preventative against resting. The mixture is good for plows, hoes, axes, indeed for all tools acd implements, as well as knives and forks packed away. I "So you are going to teach schoolrsaid a young,lady to her maid en , aunt.

MARIETTA, SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 3, 1865. Dan Ellis, From the advanced Sheets of a new work entitled "l'he Field, the Dungeon and the Escaper by Albert D. Richard son, Correspondent of the N. Y. Trib une, who was for twenty months coufin lid in seven different Rebel dungeons, and who at length escaped, we extract •the following graphic account of Dan Ellis, a famous Union Guide : For many months, even before leaving prison, we had been familiar with the name of Dan Ellis—a famous Union Guide, who since the beginning of the war, had done nothing but conduct loyal men to our lines. Ellis is a hero, and his life a romance. He had taken through, in all, more than four thousand persons. He had proba bly seen more adventure—in fights and races with the Rebels, in long journeys, sometimes bare-footed and through the snow, or swimming rivers full of floating ice—than any other man living. He had never lost but one man, who was swooped up through his own heed lessness. The party had traveled eight or ten days, living on nothing but parch ed corn. Dan insisted that a man could walk twenty-five miles a day through snow upon parched corn just as well as upon any other diet—if he only thought so. I feel bound to say that• I have tried it and don't think so. This person held the same opinion. He revolted against the perched corn diet, vowing that he would go to the first house and get an honest meal, if he was captured for it. He went to the house, obtained the meal, and was captured. After we had traveled fifty miles, ev erybody said to us, "If you can only find Dan Ellis, and do just as he tells you, you will be certain to get through." We did find Dao Ellis. On Sunday night, one hundred and thirty.four miles from our lines, greatly broken down, we reached a point on the road, waited for two hours, when along came Dan Ellis, with a party of seventy men—refugees, prisoners, rebel deserters, Union sol diers returning from their homes within the enemy's lines, and escaping prison ers. About thirty of them were mount ed and twenty armed. Like most men of action, Dan was a person of few words. When our story had been told 'him, he said to his com rades : "Boys, here are some gentlemen who have escaped from Salisbury, and who are most dead from the journey. They are our people. They have suffered in our cause. They are going to their homes in our lines. We can't ride and let these men walk. Get down off your horses, and help them up ?" Down they came, and up we went; and then we pressed along at a terrible pace. * * * * * * To-day when we came on the hot track of eight guerillas, the Rebel-hunting in stinct waxed strong within Dan, arid tak ing eight of his own men, he started in fierce pursuit. Seven of the enemy es caped, but one was captured and brought to our camp a prisoner. Then Dan went to the nearest Union house, - to learn the news.; for every loy alF family in a range of many hundred miles knew and loved him. We, very weary, lay down to sleep in an old or ohard, with our saddles for pillows. Our reflections were pleasant. We were only seventy-nine miles from the Union lines. We progressed swimming ly, and'had even begun to regulate the domestic affairs of the border Before midnight some one shook my arm. f rubbed my eyes open and look ed up. There was Dan Ellis. "Boys, we must saddle up instantly:— We have walked right into a nest of reb els ; several hundred are within a few miles; eighty are in this immediate vi cinity. They are lying in ambush for Colonel Kirk and-his ineu.—lt is doubt. ful whether we can ever get out of this. We must divide into two parties. The footman must take to the mountains; we who are riding, 'and in much more dauger—as horses make more noise, and leave so many traces—must prase on at once, if weever hope to reach the Union lines." . Tha word was passed in low tones. Flinging our saddles upon our weary beiges, we were on our way almost in stantly. My place was near the middle of the calvacade. The man just before me was riding a white horse, which en abled me-to follow him with ease. We galloped along at Dan's usual pace, with the most sublime indifference to roads—up . and down rocky bills, across et!eaMS, through swamps, over fences-everywhere but pablii) thoroligh fares. ] suppose we had traveled three miles when Mr. Davis fell back from tbe front and said to me : "That young lady rides very well does BhB not r' "What young lady ?" "The young lady who is piloting U." I had thought Dan Ellie waa piloting in, and rode forward` to see 'about the young lady. There she was, surely enough, I could not scrutinize her face in the dark ness, but , it was said to be comely. I could see that her form was graceful, and the ease and firmness with which she eat on her horse would have been a lesson for a riding master. She resided at the Union house, where Dan had gone for news. The moment she learned his need, she volunteered to pilot him out of the neighborhood, where she was born and bred, and knew every acre. The only accessible horse (one belonging to a Rebel officer, but just then kept in her father's barn) *as brought platted saddled. She mounted, came out to our camp at midnight, and was now stealthily guiding us, avoiding farm-houses where the rebels were quar tered, going round their camps, evading their pickets. She led us for seven miles. Then, while we remained in the wood, she rode forward over the long bridge which 'spanned the Nolechucky River, to see if there were any guards upon it; went to the first Union house beyond to learn whether the roads were picketed ; came back and told us the coast was clear. Then she rode by our long line toward her home, We should have given her three rousing cheers, had it been safe to cheer. I hope the time is not far dis tant when her name may be made pub lic. Until the rebel guerrillas are driv en out from their hiding-places near her mountain home, it will not be prudent. Over iu Jersey, during the last Presidential canvass, a young lawyer, noted for the length of his neck, his tongue and his: bill,; was on the stump biowi g his horn for—Getting on hie eloquence, he spread himself and said..: •"I would that on the Bth day of nest November I might have the wings of a bird, and I would fly to every city and every village, to every town and every hamlet, to every mansion and every hut, and proclaim to every man, woman and child, that—is President of these Uni ted States." At this point a youngster in the crowd sang out : "Dry up, you old fool. You'd be shot for a goose before you dew a mile." Clergyman. Really, my good friends, it iq a pity that you who so late ly married too, shoUld quarrel as you do. You ought besides, to recollect, that you are but properly as one. Husband. One sir ! I wish, when you happen to be passing this way, you would just stop and listen for a moment under our windows ; you would imagine we are twenty. In the hearing of an Irish case for assault and battery, a counsel, while cross examining one of the witnesses, asked him what they had at the first place they stopped st ? "Pour glasses of ale."

Bed. The difference between a man and a woman in dispobition, finds no plainer illustration than that afforded at the mo ment when either of them retires to bed. The young girl tripe to her chamber, and with the cautious timidity yeculiar to her, first locks the doors, and arrang es the window codeine, so that by no possible chance a passer-by or belated nocturnal wanderer "from the pavement can catch a glimpse of her budding beau ty when en dishabille. This task com pleted, she turns ou the gas to its full head, and institutes a general search throughout the apartment, that she may be sure that it does not contain a "hor rible burglar," or "desperate ruffian, in big whiskers and crisp black hair." Carefully, with her delicate little fingers, she lifts the- bed valance, where even Tom Thumb couldn't squeeze his dimin utive corporation, and takes a diminu tive peep into the half emptied trunks, not forgetting to glance nervously un der the sofa, the space 'between which and the floor is not soffieient to contain the ghost of Calvin Edson ;' mach less an ordinary robber. Having ascertained that she is really alone, she leisurely proceeds to divest her fair form of "the skill and linen con ventionalities of society," First, she relieves her glossy hair from its thral dom of pins and combs, and "does it up" more completely. Then off comes the little collar, and the light vapory cloud of lace she calls her undersleeves, which all the day have been clasped around her white, plump arms by a couple of In dia robber strips. Next, the "love of a spring silk" dress is unfastened in front. Then sundry waist strings and button straps are loosed, and lo ! what a col lapse, like that of Lowe's big balloon. She stands like'Satern in the centre of rings. There they lie upon the soft car pet, partly-covered by the linen under fixings, with no more expression in them than there is in the bare floor beneath the carpet. 'Sits she 'now on the edge of the snowy bed, and begins the unlac ing of gaiters and the disrobing of those fair, swelling limbs of her stockings. The pretty little foot is carefully perch ed upon the knee—down drops the gait er, off comeirthe elastic, and her thumb inserted at the top , of her stockings, pubes it down—down over the heel, and the cotton rests besides the pranel la. So with the'other foot, only involv ing a slight change of her position. There is a smile that peeps out from behind the blushes of her meet face now as standing before the glass she places upon her , head the night-cap, and with a quick twist of her fingers ties the be. witching bow. Then the night gown is thrown over the frilled chemise, conceal ing the heaving bosom, and the should ers in the folds. Then the counterpane and sheets are throWn back, the gas is turned down—very, very low—and the little form pressee the yielding conch, and the angel goes ,off into the world of dreams. Now, in the room directly over her is the great brute - of a brother. He comes into it, shuts the door with a slam, turns the key with a snap, growls at a chair which happens to be in his way, pulls off his boots and throws them in a corner, jerks his socks from his feet, drops his pantaloons on the floor and lets them lay there ; gets off his coat and vest by a quick, vindictive sort of twist of his arms and body, unpins and unbuttons his collar. throws it carelessly with the tie at, rather than on the table ; travels to the window in his shirt extremity, to let down the curtains, as if he didn't care a cuss whether the entire popula tion of the street beheld his anatomy or not ; then puts out the light and boon- VOL. XL-NO, 43. Wit and Humor. A superintendent of a mission school, being annoyed by the noise, final ly, in appealing to the boys, raising his hand said, "Now let's see if we can't hear a pin drop." All was silence, when a little fellow in the back part of the room, cocking his ear and placing him self in an attitude of breathless atten tion, spoke out. "Let her drop 1" The question is decided. Even an unmarried woman may "wear breeches" with impuniti. The police-man who arrested kiss Harman, in New York, for sporting "male continuations," has bein dismissed the force, the Chief de ciding 'that a woman has as much right to wear a pair of pants as an overcoat, which every woman wears.

"Ne one should indulge in such horrid anticipations," as the hen-pecked husband said when the parson told him that he would"be joined to his wife in another world, never to separate from her. "Parson," said he, "I beg you won't mention that circumstance again." The ladies of Harrisburg propose to hold a meeting next week, for the purpose of adopting a change of dress, on account of the recent disgrace brought upon the present fashion by the rebel Jeff.
