' The bill to provide a mansion for the Governor of the State, was taken up aa the special order of the hour. (Provision of the bill heretofore pub lished.) Mr. Swaim thought that the old mansion could not be repaired. He advocated the report of the commit tee. Mr. Cooper thought the hardness of the times ought to be takes into con sideration. The property sought to be sold was valuable, and if it was for ced into market would not bring anything- like its value. He thought $1000 would cover the cost of repairing the old mansion. Mr. Cobb said be was favor of old Nrth Carolina, but was in favor of a new house for the Governor. The question recurred upon the bill on its second reading and passed.

Fashion kills mere- women than toil and sorrow. Obedience to fashion is a greater transgreision of the laws of woman s nature a greater injury to her physical and mental constitution lhan poverty and. neglect. The slave woman at her taste will livo and prpw old, will see; two or three generations of her mistresses fade and pass away. Washer woman. with scarce a ray of hope to cheer her in her toil, will live to see here fashionable sisters die all around her. The kitchen maid is hearty and strong when her lady has to be nursed like a sick baby. It is a sad truth that the fashion-pampered women' are almost worthless for all the ends of human life. They have still less power .of .mora.will, and quite as little of physical energy. They live for no great purpose in life; they ac complish no worthy ends. They are only doll-forms in the hands of milli ners and servants, to be dressed and' fed to order. - They serve, aobody and they save nobody.
