A merchant of Berlin having fallen in love witn i»n opnra singer a tew days ago, purchased two dresses, and sent them to her to make her choice, saying ho would call to know her decision, fclhortly, however, before the hour he had intended to sot out on his errand, tins merchant received from his beloved a billet dovx to the following effeot.—"Of the dresses you have sent I like one quite as well as the other. 1 will, iv fact, keep both, 30 that you have no need to call."

A late Lndy Lonsdale, a sister of Sir Charles Stuart, was unfortunate in her mar rug''. Very early after thnir union she nnde a discovery of her husband's in fidelity ; bat she bore it with great temper aud forbearance, and conducted herself through life with admirable discretion and propriety. On ono occasion (which would have sorely tried the temper of most wives)

her conduct was truly praiseworthy. Gointf t Into iv aliop to purchase some lace, Lady Lon-dalo imiuii-'-d the price of a, sploudid point clonk ,\vh<eh lay on the counter. " The price of this, ma'am," siuu the shop man to whom Lady L. was uuknown, "is a hundred guineas j but it has just b^cu bespoke by Lord Luusuale for Mrs G —■" (his lordship'? mistress.) "Then show me one at fifty," said Lady Lonsdale, "that will do fur hii wife."

To Wivss.— You will not be likely to make a man talk by telling him that heought to t*lk, or scolding him becaus, he does not do so. Makn it ;> pleasure for him to talk with you. Exercise good senses good tem per, and tact in drawing him put on topics of interest to himself. Be patient under his mooda of silence. Be deserving the com panionship of a seusible man. Avoid talk in"1 of persons, or insignificant details con cerning yourself or your work. Have something interesting or valuable to say. The etory of your child's prattle may b« full of interest. The number of pies you have made, and the rooms you have swept, may not be worth repeating, Cultivate the graces of character, cp°ech, and tones of voice, and you may fina that the man who was glad to escape from the lni-^'ou". complaining, exacting --'"""' S n™ re luctantly from '• ■■' wll° knows when to 1 | :":?«ii™i to be silent, "who oponeth iier mouth with wisdom, and in whose tongue ia tho luv of kindness."

Lady Gakdesihc—Make your beds early iv the morning; aew buttons on your husband's ahirta; do not rake up any Sjrievancc-i; protect the youne and tender branches of your family ; plant a smile of good tempor ia your face; and carefully root out all angry feelings, and expect a good crop of happiness,

The Prettiest Woman in Paris.

A Paris correspondent writes aa follows : — The pn ttieet woman in Paris has returned to Puris. Anybody who has ever scon the fair and famous Mdrne. Bernadaki, the celebrated Russian beauty, will know at once whom I moan without any further description. I saw her in her box at tho opera the othor night, looking the very typ^ of perfect, if soullois, loveliness. In features »he resembles greatly the por traits of Mdmc. llecamier. The eyes are of a deep, lovely blue, the nose aquiline, tho mouth small and shaped like Cupid's bow, The exquisitely-shaped head is set to perfection on the white rounded throat, ana the shoulders, in mould and in colour ing, would put to shame tho most artistic form that ever was sculptured in marble If her face were only expressive, it would be divine. In her euperb toilet of white satin the other night she was simply dazzling. Sho doc» not altogether under stand how to set off her marvellous beauty. •She breaks the lines of her exquisite lorm by woariug great masses of flowers on he. corsage, and sho mars the outline of her abapoly head by similar additions to her coiffure. It is said that she will be next season ono of the queens of Parisian society. Somo encumberment which had we'ghed on her husband's estates will bo removed, and he will come into the possession of vast wealth, which, joined to bis wife's personal charms, will fully suflico to secure the potition of tbe pair in the beau monde. I hope that some of tho great portrait painters of the day will, during the coming seaaoD, immortaliuo on canvas tbe face and form of this llesu-and-blood Venus.

Latest Fashion Notes.

The following paragraphs contain the sub'tanoo of the article on May fashions in " Lo Follet " :— Charming fancy woollens are among the most fashionablo walking dre?Bes ; large flowers arc disappearing; fine lines, with nciw-liko edges, en ncie, in dark colours on light grounds, large checks of two or more shades of tho fame colour, crossed by fins groups of linoa in contrasting colours, are the styles adopted by the leading eouturicres. Polonaises and priocesse tunics, pointed bodice, with panier scarves, and jaquettes. draped with plain bright colours in surah or Mtoen, and profusely trimmed with, lace, and worn over skirts of flowered Batcens. either trimmed with the same or plain, and edged with a wide ruche of plain sateen or surah bordered with lace, will be very fashionably worn. For loss drossy costumes, the checked and plaid zephyrs, ginghams, and many other varieties of washing materials, such as Oriental pattern sateens, flowered cambric", Linons, and cretonnes will be em ployed, These are made in more simple facons, white cambric or muslin embroidery bi'itw one of the favourite garnitures. Broad ribbon Rashes, and satin or corded waist-bolts, oftqn accompany the bodices of theee dicsso*, which are difficult to fit closely to the figure. Narrow kiltines of plaiu colour, uudor wider flounces, kilted or gathered, are very effective for such coutumoa, Carriage and visiting dresses are very olcaotly made ; silks and satins, broches, brocadnf, velvet failles, foulards, surahs, pop lius. and many other silken fabrics, are worn, while mousoeline de lame, voile, gauze, and grenadlueare among the favourite materials of a thinner class. Short silks and satins, or striped ones, are elegantly worn; also a combination of the two styles, such as maroon, myrtle greon, bronze, &c., stripes, on grounds of soft changing colours.

A very becoming and stylish little bodice Is just introduced, that can be worn with almost any dress, and be slipped on in a moment, to improve the toilette. It is a

pointed bodico. without any basque on the hip's low on the shoulders, either tquare or ■i la vicree, and without sleeves; it is made of velvet, aatin, faille, or some silken material thick enough to lit well. Many are mane edged everywhere with velvet, embroidered with beads; otheis are quite unlrlmmed; there are bows on the shoulders, and sometimes on the hips. Ihe mantles for spring and summer wear are decidedly shorter than those of the winter , the prevailing characteristic is then being much shorter at the back than the front, as illustrated by one of the very newest, named the "Contessa." Tho material of this may be broche, SiciHenne, grenadine broche, or velvet gauze; either of the latter could be lined with silk or satin. The fronts are mantlet shape, long, and forming a point when ioiued in the centre, the sleeves form a long peplum point at the side, and are fitted to tho shoulder by a seam shaped .o the upper part of an armholu ; the back is much shorter, and has a centre seam, carry ing it to the waist.

CHOICE EXTRACTS.

GOOD taste is the flower of good sense. Those who can command themselves command others. The true eye tor talent presupposes the true reverence for it. The soul -without imagination in what an observatory would be without a telescope. Sonio think that a tender conscience is a weak one ; but it is a sign of their weak ness who think so. To restore a commonplace truth to its first uncommon lustre, you need only translato it into action.— Coleridge. ■' He thaJ reapact* himself la safe from othorB; He wears a coat o£ mall that none nan plnron. ' -Longfellow Great men should think of opportunity, and not of time. Time is the excuse of feebled and puzzled spirit?. Life ii too short to nurse one's misery. Hurry, then, across ,the lowland, that you may linger longer on the mount"'- *' A firm faith b>. d '.a y, r\ t c s 0 c r t 3 I 5 I , , r I subject; and it you ua»e him, you had better talk sillily upon a subject of other people's choosing than upon one of your own. He that will give himself to all manner of ways to get money may bo rich ; so he that lets fly all he knows or thinks may by chance become satirically witty. Honesty sometimes keeps a man from growing rich, and civility from being witty. , Little good comes by disputing. Pride is generally at the bottom of it, and not charity or the lore of truth; and it is seldom managed with decency or candour enough to produce any good effect. Let fall a wonl in season, and wait in patience till the ruin drops on it. Men talk in raptures of youth and beauty, wit and sprightliness, bat after seven years of union not one of them is to be compared to good family management, which la seen at every meal, and felt every hour in the husband's purso. If falsehood bad, like truth, but one faoe only, we should be upon better term?, for we should then take the contrary to what the liar gays for certain truth, but the reverse of truth hath a hundred figures, and a field indefinite without bound or limit. —Montaigne. The object of all religions is alike. All men seek the object of their love, and all tho world is love's dwelling. Why talk of' a mosque or a church f He alone is a true Hindu whose heart is jnst, and he alone is a true Mnhommedan whose liftl Is true.— "NanacShah, Hindu." A person whose mind has been actively employed all the day in the counting room, upon the bench, or in the study, needs in order to restore the balance, bodily exer tion joined with complete mental relaxation. In other words, his exercise ought to be agreeable and entertaining. Work every hour, paid or unpaid; see only that thou work, and thou cantt aot escape thy reward. Whether thy work b« fine or coarse, planting corn or writing epics, so only it be honest work, done to thine own approbation it shall earn a reward to the sensos as well aa to the thought. No matter how often defeated, you are born to victory. The reward of a thine well done is to have done it. Manhood begin* when we have in any way made truce with necessity^; begins, at all events, when we have surrendered to necessity, as the most part only do, but begins joyf nlly and hopefully when we have reconciled ourselves to necessity, and thus, in reality, triumphed over it, and felt that in necessity we are free.—Carlyle. TnE Mind.—Nothing so adds to the treasures of the mind and increases its power as its own thinking. Learn to think lor yourself. It is all very well to hear and to reap the wisdom of others ; but one should not let this take tho place of one's own thought. Many persons are like cisterns ; they are pood to holil the thoughts of others; but, when the timo comes that they arc forced to rely on themselves, they have no power to do so. The outside supply is cut off, and the cistern runs dry. But, if one, like a liver, is constantly fed by one's own springs, then, as the learning of others comes to him, it unites with his own waters, aud the stream widens and deepens.

TTITCHENS'S BLOOD RESTORER rx — FOX CLEANSING, PURIFYING, AMD INVIGORATING THE BL<>OD. Seven Years' Tont in Auckland. PTIHIS Medicine differs from ordinary pro. JL prietary preparations, inasmuch as it was the product of years of study and investigation by an eminent physician of the Army Medical Steffi with whom Mr Kitchens served daring the New Zealand War, as Assistant Dispenser to the Im perial Forces. e On its introduction to the public as a specific for the cure of Rheumatism, Kheumatic wont, Scrofula, Skin Diseases, Blood Impurities, and General Debility, i. quickly attained great oelebrity, and soon was sought after from every part of New Zealand. Its curatire and depurative properties have been fatly testified by the numerous testimonials received by the proprietor from patients who had long snfiered from the above distressing maladies, who had ap plied in vain to physicians for relief, and in whose cases, Turkish Baths, Hot Springs, and otno: popular remedies had been re sorte* to without effect. This celabrated medicine is compounded from products of the vegetable kingdom, is palatable and easily taken, mild, but effec tual, iii its action upon the animal econ omy. It is, in sooth, a veritable Blood K£3T6riib, cleansing it, and thereby restor *.?*'& diminished vitality. It presents, un- UiUestionably, a purer, safer, better, and Snore reliable alterative medicine than any that has hitherto been available to the people, MORK TESTIMONY I Not a SURPRISING CURE To thosa who know what H itchens' Blood Resto r er HAS DON*. In the Auckland isveNlHO STAR of the 27th April la9t, - appeared the following local, which explains itself :— The brig Bella Mary, from Melbouroe in ballast, bound for Kaipara, put into har bour yesterday morning to obtain medical aid for Captain Owens, master of the vessel, who has been very unwell during the latter part of the voyage. Oaptain Owens, who has followed the seafaring profession for many year.', and had never until leaving Melbourne on Apiil 10th last, suffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in the back. Since then he has been swung up in a hammock in the cabin quite helpless. The vessel was off Kaipara at noon on Thursday last, but the weather beiDg thick and foggy, it waa deemed advisable to come on to Auck land for medical assistance. The barque arrived early yesterday morning, and Dr Moore having been sent for, visited Capt. Owens, and gave instructions to the mate «l fly vessel regarding; treatment. The invalid is ib<i..u, t — _ opTCiuß vi rheumatism of a severe nature, and the (lector considers it advisable to effect a partial recovery before attempting the re moval of his patient to more suitable quarters on shore. Capt. Ovrc>ns is well known in Auckland, and many residents will be sorry to learn of his affliction." Referring to above, Oaptain Owen hai this day (Ist December), stated: " After being treated for about five weeks by two medical men successively, with very little alteration in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat easier through the effect of the galvanic battery, I felt a gradual sinking that told me the dread end was not far off, and one of my visiting friends suggested that I should try what Hitchen's Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked about far and wide. Without much faith in it, I consented to try it, but did not notice any good effect until I had taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my strength was coming back to me.' I then ceased to take the medicine, and allowed nature to take its course, but finding my appetite going, I stimulated it by small doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be invigorated; and now, after a treatment of six months,! am able to re sume charge of my_ vessel, and am only waiting her arrival in port tv do so. I can easily walk four miles a day without the slightest inconvenience, I consider my friend's suggestion saved ray life, and that it is a dnty that I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitchens's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumat ism." W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to shew original manuscripts of the several pub lished testimonials anent the Remedy,with scores of others not yet published. L. D. MaTBAN & Co.
