The news ot the past week may be britfly summed up as "red hot." The Northern papers come filled with murders, suicides, and general debauchery; while, strange to say, the fire-eating Southerners seem to have subsided into a "law-abiding people," It we except the duel between the editor of the Raleigh Telegram and editor ot theTWrborSiufAjjai' which did not come off, and the doodle between a couple of civilians which did come off in Virginia all is serene 1 Paris is in (or un der) Thiers, and Europe settles down to quiet, and the watering places. Long Branch has along its sandy shores Grant and the gabbling garish crowd, and we are going to "Smiflle" so-long! t i Pipes. --Consider, in the first place, a meerschaum pipe in its native purity' of hue. It is a symbol ot one of the most uni versal, and, we might almost add, one of the most intellectual pleasures known to humanity. From a moral oint of view, it is suggestive of peace, of the calming of over-irritated nerves, and of general geod. will toward mankind. Tobacco supplies Ono of the few comfo ts by which men who iive by their hands solace themselves under incessant Osbips, while it equally gives relief to the excited brain of those who de pend upon intellectual labor. In all the Wide scale of human beings which inter venes between the red Indian and the Ger man philosopher, there is no rank for which tobacco does not soften the harsh edges of daily life. Next to the man who invented sleep, we should pay gratitude to the bene factor who discovered this method of en tering the confine of sleep during our akin2 noars; So great and universal a pfcasure 8nould surely have its outward . ns tQ Ten&n tue memory 0f past bapp ness. .Some of the highest faculties have been called'out in the effort to render mere attractive the instruments which minister to the more sensual and dangerous passion for intoxicating drinks. If it is" worth a man's while to ornament a drinking cup with the labor of months or years, why should not ah equal attention be bestowed upon pipes ? The meerschaum is to the ordinary xlay what the diamond is to agate, or cold to copper ; but it must be admitted, ;r r inAtrn frnm the snecimens exhibited in tobacconists' shops, that it has hitherto 11 nojuu.x r 1 , employed only a very inferior order of talent Yet the meerschaum has the special glory that, if skillfully handled, it is orna mented in the very process ot enjoyment. It would require no ordinary power of Ian- guage to point out the lovely gradation of colors through whicbthe virgin white of the primitive material gradually deepens through a delicate amber down to the rioiiPftt chestnut, and finally to the black- ness of midnight.

H -lfortht.th Jlan-ttilliner 4jf Pariah Arr)bassadors?; wives" . and court ladies used to go to take tea with the fellow, and dispute the honor ot filling his. cup or put ting sugar into it. I once went into his shop a sort of drawing-room hung round with dresses; I found him lolling on a chair, his legs crossed before the fir.e, ArounM him were a bevy of women, some pretty, some ugly, listening to his observations with the rapt attention of the disciples of a sage. He called them up before him like school girls, and, after inspecting them, praised or blamed their dresses. One, a pretty young girl, found favor in his eyes, and he told her that ha must dream and meditate several days over her, in order Vo fipd the inspiration to make a gown worthy Ot her, "Why do you wear these ugly gloves ?" he said to.another ; 'uever let me see yu in gloves of that color again." She was a very grand lady, but she slipped off her gloves, and put them in her pocket with a guilty look. When there was going to be a ball at court, ladies used to go down on their knees to him to make them beauti ful. For some time he declined to dress any longer the wife of a great imperial who had not been sufficiently dignitary humble toward him : she came to him in tears, but he was obdurate, and he only consented at last to make a cown for her on condition that she would put it on for the first time in his shop. The empress, who dealt with him, sent to tell him that if he did not abate his prices she would leave him. "You cannot," he replied, and, in fact, she could not, for she stood by him to the last. A morning dress by this artist, worth in reality about four pounds, cost trirty pauutU . oji a iwni ig L drfRfl t-ftwdry with flounces, ribbons, and bad lace, could not be bad under seventy pounda." There are about thirty shops in Paris whero, as at this man milliner's, the goods are not better than elsewhere, but where they cost about ten times their value. They-are patronized by foolg witQ more money than wits, and chiefly by foreign fools. The proprietor of one, of these establishments was complain ing to me the other day of what he was losing by the siege ; I told him that I sym pathized with him about as much as I should with a Greek brigand bewailiDg a falling off of wealthy strangers in the dis trict where he was in the habit of carrying on his commercial operations. Labouchere's Diary of a Berieged Resident in Paris. Europeans have always been led to sup- pose that, by the act of suttee, Hindoo wives declared their undying attachment to their husbands, but Dr. Cheever in his recent work on Indian medical jurisprudence, traces the custom to a very different origin. He brings forward authorities to show that the Bramins themselves invented the law as a means of self-protection against their wives. Betore its introduction tne wives were in the habit of avenging themselves on their husbands for neglect and cruelty by mixing poison with their food, ana at last things came to such a height that the least matrimonial quarrel resulted in the hus band's death. An easier remedy for the i evil might have been found in permitting the wife to eat out of the same dish as the husband, but this would have involved too wide a departure from the customs ot socie ty : and it must be admitted that there is a j peculiar refinement of cruelty in the expe- client adopted which would commend it self to the Asiatic mind. Of late years ihe law of suttee has been occasionally set at defiance, but the widow cannot altogether escape the consequences of her husband's I Ath HU familv degrade her. and nut I m - ' . j her to the most menial duties in the house. The sorrows of a young widow are HOl ended when she gets her husband under following a lady to ground, as will be seen by the extract from a letter written b 4 the Heme Journal: - "Do you know, girls, what it is to be a widow ? It is to be ten times more open to comment and criticism J. than any demoiselle could possibly be. It is to have men gaze as you pass, nrst at you, then at your black dress, and then at tout widow's cap, until your sensitive i-ueryca uunu uuw w 1 (ha lnflirtinn IF la tn have one ill-natured person sayi -i wonder . will wait before she marries fc', and another answers, Until she gets a good chance, I suppose.

And in the next breath : You will be sure to marry again, and your widow's cap is very becoming to you.' " . Miss Delia Roberts, a Kentucky school teacher, twenty-two years of age, hung herself ; last week, because of her love for" one of her boy pupils,- a lad not yet fourteen. On. the evening before her death she went to the boy s house, and calling him to the gte, said ; "Efed, you will never see me again. When you grow to be a man and marry, tell your Wife aBoui the woman old enough ft o bt your''mitiierwnb' died on your account." Thus saying, . she clasped the object oj her strange passion to her bosom, and was never seen alive again.' In a town in Ohio, not long ago, the women .went in bands of two and three with their knitting and sewing into the dramshops of the place and spent the whole day with their work, and talking politely upon various topics. Husbands and friends ' came in saw how things looked, and had not the courage to step to the bar and drink. . This was kept up for several days. and the result was every shep in the place was closed. ' Grace Greenwood is willing that 4 three classes oi women snouia be allowed to vote: oingie women who had property, married women who had minds, and such others as miSht desire. to.

The fashion of bonnet worn by draught hbrses to j protect them fj-dm sunstroke re- mains the same ?s, . last season. The moral of this, of course is not intended for woman kind, though it might not be altogether irrelevant to inform the sex that horses continue to wear their own hair, and are not indebted to foreign sources for their "switches." One cannot be in the fashion maa, wo man. olehild unless thev have something? oi a uiue color oWrrr-tHetr i.ajbmit set of studs will "save1' a man, and a blue bow a woman ; but some blue they must have; or be outside the charmed circle ot fashion.

Gentlemen's straw hats, with band bt blue ribbon, will be worn very generally at the sea-side and other resorts. ! A Word to Boys. Truth is one of the rarest virtues.
