WET FEET.
J What a crowd of painful recollection*
1 are conjured up in the mind of a physician,
| of any age and experience* by the word*
irtf feet. The child which had been play
j ing about in the morning in all its infantile
loveliness and vivacity, is seized at night
with croup from wet ibet, arid in a day or
two is a corpse. The youthful form of
f male beauty, w huh a few months In*fore
gladened tlie eyes of every bohoMer, is
now wasting in slow, remediless decay.

ior f ishioa. But v,e mistake,—fashion,
| that despotic destroyer of comfort, and too
! often a sworn toe to health, will not allow
* the feet of a ludy fair to be incised in lea
ther. She must wear, forsooth, cloth
shoes with a thin leather sole, and even
| this latter is barely conceded. A cover
ing for the feet never originally intended
toTie seen beyond the chamber or the par
lour, is that now adopted for street parade
and travel; and they whose checks vve
would not that the winds of heaven should

themselves ns willing victims to all the
‘sufferings of the shivering ague, catarrh,
and pains rheumatic. Tel! them ot a wiser
course; argue vvnh some on their duties,
as mothers and as wives, to preserve their
health—w ith others, as daughters of beau
tv who arc risking by approaching disease
the loss of their loveliness, anti they will
reply, that they cannot wear those horrid
{large shoes—that leather docs not fit so

shoes are frightful. They do not reflect

sociate It with the ideas of su fie ring ami

admiration in a Grecian nymph, under !

it in these costumes thee were seen walk

any h'ggar is sure of receiving? W e have
g'l-'ed on lire finest productions of tl*'

I hearty with the admiration of a lover, and
the purposes of an artist, and wo do assure

Hu* how. conceding all t’.e beauty
claimed by its admirers to an exhibition of
' sui ill i in neat tight sh ws, can we re
ceive this as a substitute for clear com
plex,on, hnl'iant lustre of the eye, and the
mild smile of content, all lost by repeated
attacks of i cold, or the coining on ol
dyspepsia »nd sick headach, the conse
quences of wet and cold feet.

I It is idle to talk of females accustoming
themselves to having their feet chtlied, I
damp, or wet an hour or two in the sti cts

Mis. de I,** mixed much with the j
j ib tfiviaid > world last winter, accompanied ]
by her daiigbter Emily. Young arid Innd
some, the latter was the object of general
attention. Although without fortune, she!
j received many advantageous p ropes .Is fori
j i,er *,nnd—but ns h**r heart rem uned unaf ,
i tec ted, tsl i.* select**! (Vom tlic crowd of her
admirers Mr. de V*** as the one best smi
led to gratify her amour propr.; be was
about forty, rich and respected—iie adored
her ami would thus make her happy. Emi- I
I iv made a conlidente of her mother, who]
could not avoid expressing her surprise at,
the selection, IWr. <1e nad already
lost two wives—there was a disparity in'
! their ages, and she foil an invincible repug.
! nance, f.»r which she could not account, to
j the union. Emily thought so good an op
portunity < f securing a rich cstablislune.it
! might not again present—-her mother y ield
ed, and she was married to Mr. dc V#*.
.Some lime after, Emily’s brother urged her
to frankly confess to him, whether she had
realised the happiness which Hie had
anticipated (rum the union. “I have in
deed, said she, mv hushuid anticipate
iny every wish, end would render me fully
happy, but for a s ugular requ. st whi' h he
has made, and which as I cannot under
stand the object, troubles me, & 1 h ;vc to
r. :usc it. It must be very serie^s . id
Edward. Oh r.o, it is very .‘•illy, replied
bis sister—you would never imagine what.
Only think of a request to bind myself
| with lir.cn bandages—in a word to 1-e a
| living copy of an Egypt a in mummy.
So extraordinary a caprice, surprised
Edward lull as much it hud 1.1 ^ sister.
iiis curiosity was too strongly eveited
! to be spent in imaginings, and he urged bis
"istcr to yield, bul with the condition that
| he should, unknown to the husband be
'stationed during the operation m an ad
joining room.
Thus placed, his si^er iaf.micd her
husband that she determ.ned to y ield to his
request. Wild with joy at this infbrma
j tion, the husband found not words to ex
press his gratitude, yet promptly com
tr.enced his operation5. Edward listened
attentively. Profound silence reigned for
some minutes in the room, ins sister broke
it by saving in a trembling tone, ‘arid the
arms too?” He involuntarily trembled as
if they v. ere to be the last words of 1 us
sister. Yes my dear replied ttie husband
gaily, I be<» von—-bead and feet only,
free; just like a Mummy you know. All
was again quiet—<he silence lasted so long
as again to frighten Edward, arid lie wu»
I upon the point of entering the room, wlu-n
i his ^!s‘er commenced laug'nrg mo3t mi
* moderately—he felt assured and hslceed.
Emily stoji!>.v.l, •>, id nil was again silent
Again she laughed, and more immoderate*
!y than bel re, and again all was silent.
1 1 iiis torn » iik * rp|v>e, broken by loud and
immoderate laughter and succeeding th
laughter, was alarming— he knew n*>i
what t<* think 0‘- tt, and hurst iut * tV

and Ed war*: r uud his unfortunate sister
: stretched on the iloor, cold r.nd rinniin tte.
Her husband ii 1 bound her, that lie might
' f C'ly tit'lk Wr fct. Another fit of laugh
ing. and K njv would have followed ihe
two other’ ivtM of kir. de V. The best
attendance h>a b;:t recalled her to ex

To day 1 am a htindred years old. IIow
h!i>sfnl are the f clings of boyhood! My
senses arc acute as the tree with the shrink
ing leaf. Mv hhiod bounds tlircmgh my
veins as tiie river pours through the valley,
rejoicing in its strength Life lies before
me liken other plain fShirut—vast, un
occupied, inviting—I will till it with
achievements and |dca -are! In about sixty
years it xv.ll be time tor me to thin!; ol
marrying; my kinswoman Zdlah xvill by
that tune have emerged from girlhood; she
ulrcud) sixes promise, I hear, of comh
ness a.id discretion. Twenty years lienee
J will pay a \i-it to her father, that I may
vcc how >bo grows; meanwhile, 1 xwil build j
a city to receive her when si a* becomes my

antelope found my father's tent, or, climb
ing the dark cellars. nestled liko a bird
among the thick IxMigns—and now I am a
man iir authority, as well as in the prime j
of life. I lead o il my trained servants lo i

nc lii the vary tree where, naan infant, my
mother laid me to sleep. .lazed, my j
youngest horn, a k voly babe of thirty sum

My beard ii become m h»tc as tho blossoms
of the al.nond tree. I am constrained to

less bright than formerly; the flowers smell

tomb of tho rock; Milcah is gone to the

price at tho conned and in the field,* all is
changed, i'he long future is become tlio

THE A r RICAN tfOLONV IN
CANADA.
In Juno l.ist, tlic trustees of Cincinnati
township bv public notice, ordered Hie
black and mulatto persons to give security
for tlieir go<v| behavior, or to leave tho
township. Thin disruption of persons in
that tmvnshtp amounted to about 2*100,
.Many of them wore intelligent and wealthy
persons. 'Hie giving of seeurity was in
dignantly rejected, and a public meeting of
the people of color wits called. T hey
organized themselvee—-and after various
propositions relative to a place to locate
themselves, they decided upon going to
Canada. Two of tlieir officers took stage
and went to view the country. They have
purchased one hundred mid twenty-four
thousand acres of excellent land, nnd h.ivo
I a million of acres at tlieir refusal. \N e are
informed that they now have eleven hun
dred persons m their colony—600 of w hich
were from Cincinnati, and <100 from other
places. In ths Spring, the balance of (lie
2000 expect to go there—and m range*
meets are m iking in other places, for an
extensive enng 'uti’on.
Tho President of the society is prepar
ing f»r an immediate journey to England,
to have an interview with the King Tho
pro!) ibihty is that they will receive u grant
of a million of acres, from the crown.
