tains of embroidered lace, covered Avith
golden tapestry of Oriental magnificence ;
Avith mirrors of mammoth size reflecting your
form and features from a score of glistening
embrasures. Along the hall, at convenient
distances, are ranged circular tables of pol

numbers of thoughtful, anxious, dark-visage d

Avuuld naturally suppose this to be a theatre
for jest, drollery, and song, or bacchanalian
revelings, or pugilistic encounters. Far
from it. On the contrary, all is hushed,

You are oppressed AA ith the fearful stillness

A laugh, a joke, or even a curse would be a

HOAV A SENATOR BROKE THE BANK.

Crinoline.
The New York Sunday Times has the fol
lowing on Hoops, and is responsible for poetry
and all. If any of our fair readers take excep
tion, the Juuior must face the music, and tak.
the blame.
Open war appears to lKtve been declared,
both in some quarters of Europe and of Ameri
ca, against the latest of feminine embellishments
the hoop popularity termed crinoline. In
Paris, the court itselt, the centre of the mode,
has entered the lists against it, and decreed a
new fashion. The novelty consists in a retreat,

rather
trailing drapery just such a costume
i nt pi- Iovps and a sculDtor idolises, but a
as a
sren-
uine woman detests with unaffected earnestness.
Few females, it must be confessed, look wed m
close-fitting garbs, and fewer still, off the stage,
can manage long trains of silk or satin, or even
lighter material, with grace and dexterity. It
requires rare symmetry of form in the one case,
and much experience in the other. Uat, the
the fiat has gone forth ! The Empress Eugenie
has decreed the change, and there is no appeal.
With us, the . church, in Ohio, appears to
lead off iu this crusade against the "patent ex
panders," The United Brethren Church, in
that state, have decided the wearers of
hoops to be unworthy of a seat at the comuiup.-ion-table,
and it is intimated that certain other
religious denominations propose to follow the
example. The fashion just adopted by Eugenie
wou'.d probably not invite so cordially their
condemnation. It much resembles that present
ed us iu pictures illustrative of womanhood in
Biblical history, and therein may be calculated
to win favor in the eyes of those who entertain
but a poor opinion of modern taste and modern
improvements. The hoop itself, however, is an
innovation borrowed from the time when, as
Iireval sang in 1717
" Qfteen Kate of Antrian Hood, demure and wise,
Swelled the stiff circle to a larger size ;
Fence. 1 thehugb petticoat with ribs of whale.
And armed our mothers iu the circling mail ;"'
and the substitution, now, of trains and narrow
robes is but another retrogression to a some
what singular period Verily, "old things shall
become new," and we are destined to witness
the marvellous metamorphosis.
Hoops on barrels, kegs and pails,
Hoops oil boxes, tubs, and bales,
Ar-i article s indispensable ;
But hoops as they puff out woman's dress,
Making the iromait so much Uas,
Aif things most uud f nsible.
Hoops, when their sturdy c'asp ocnlines
Iii brown old Clicks the richest wines,
Are objects of admiration ;
But hoops as part of woman's baggage.
Are like the whoops of a painted savage
A vile abomination.
Hoops make useful, pretty toys
For active little girls and boys ;
But hoops on woman gen lie.
Are thin rs to sneer at and to scoff.
And like the whoop of a whooping-cough,
Neither useful nor ornamental.
For while dear woman bones her skirts,
And with a skeleton Haunts and tiii ts,
She has so much to carry,
Man liuds it hard with her to talk.
And harder still to sit or walk,
But hardest of a l to marry.
For when a smitten wretch has seen,
Among the lost in crinoline,
The one his heart holds dearer,
Oh! what a chill to ardent passion,
To feel that through this hollow fashion
He never can be nearer !
That instead of timidly drawing m ar,
And pouring into the thrilling ear
The flood of his soul's devotion.
He must stand and bellow in thunder tones,
Across a half acre of skirts and bones,
As if hailing a ship on the ocean !
And if by chance the maid of his choice
Should faintly hear her lover's voice,
Ami smile her condescension;
Why he captures a mass of hoops and rings,
Skeletons, bones, and other things'
Too horrible to mention.
Thus lovely woman hoops too felly.
And drives poor man to melancholy
By her great frigid zones ;
Then let her hear a warning voice. ,
Between her hoops antl hopes make choice,
And give the dogs her bones.

The recent attempt hy some ingenious para-
! graphist to bestow upon ashingtou lrvnnr,
! the honors that have hitherto attached to John
Howard Payne, as the author of the song that
is sung and loved wherever the English htn
ruae is snoken, has renewed attention to the
dramatist, whose name, with this song, will en
dure as long as there is a heart to cherish the
memories of home.

father's and his friends' consent,, he appeared
on the 24th of February, 1S0D, at the old Park
Theatre, in New York, as " Young Nerval."

was twice appointed U. S. Consul at Tunis, and
died there in 1852.
Payne wrote many pieces for the stage while

have suffered. The operatic play, -Clan,
