Of all th;. charms dear woman wears, Of all her many trapa and snaves, For real effect there's naught compares With a truly pretty bonnet; For when or wherever you chance to meet One that is pei fccrlv modrst and neat. You may depend 'tin a proof complete That the head has more in than on it. No matter whether she's pretty or not. How much or how little money she's got, Whether she live in mansion or cot, 'Tia a fact, depend upon it; The Woman to make a man happy through life, To make a model mother and wife, Is one who, scorning this milliner strife. Wears a plain j^ud tasteful bonnet. Now, a bonnet of genuine beauty and grace. Worn on the bead in its proper place, Shadowing faintly the wearer's face, " Is a thing for a song or a sonnet." But one of these gay and gaudy things, Made up of rainbows and butterfly wings, A mixta, e of flowers, ribbons .lllti Btrines 18 dreadful, depend Ujjuii it. A vulgar mass of " fuss ond feather," A nttle of everything thrown together, As if by a touch of windy weather,, A wretched conglomeration— A sort of e cup to Catch a hair, Leaving the bead to "go it bare." A striking example of -'Nothing to wear," Is this bonnet abomination. It makes a woman look brazen and bold, As^trt lier in catching nothing but cold, Is bad on the young, absurd on the old, And deforms what it ought to deck . For look at her face, no bonnet is there; See at the sido it Imngs by a hair; View it behind, and you will declare That the creature has broken her neck. No matter where you may chance to be, No matter how many women you see, A promiscuous crowd or a certain she, You may fully depend upon it That a gem of the very rarest kind, A thing most difficult to find, A pet for wliich we long have pined, Is a perfect " love of a bonnet." an23 A.

During the second day'a sitting, several interesting papers were read and discussed. That of the moat interesting to our section is thus reported : "The grape culture iu Missouri" by Professor S. Gf. Swallow, State Geologist of the State of Mis: souri, was the next paper read. Prof. Swallow- said lhat although not strictly scientific, bis subject was the result of deep acrentilic research. He alluded to the many difficulties that the cultivators of the grape have had to contend with in this conntry, and gave a full and succint statement of the vine from its first introduction into the state up to the present time. From the time of the landing of Noah up to the present dates, he said, the cultiire cf the grape ite pastime of Solomon ; in India, in Arabia, and in fact almoEt throughout the world, it was now grown to a greater or less extent. The various soils adapted to the growth ofthe grape was then explained—some soils were too dry, others too moist. The soil should be warm, dry, and have plenty of lime and kindred alkalies. The Profes? sor remarked, that the soils on the banks of the Rhine, the Ohio and the Missouri, were almost similar, and hence the wines from these localities were similar to the taste. Soda, potash, lime and magnesia were necessary to the successful growth of the vine, end he went on to prove hy statistical tables the truth of thin theory. In some portions of India, he said, while the thermometer would range in the vicinity of 140 degrees at noon, and at night the cold was so intense as to make camp fires necessary, the grape flourished—and these sudden changes, too, occurred at the very time the grape was ripening. Dr. Jackson, of Boston, followed in a few remarks on the subject, urging that all soils, to pro dnce grapes in perfection, should be deeply im- pregmited with phosphoric acid. He remarked that the grape culture had been sadly neglected iu this country, and be was pleased to see so lively an interest being awakened on the subject. The people of Massachusetts were now engaged in the manufacture of native wine, and hy the most sim pie process imaginable. The pure juice of the grape was put away, with a small quantity of loaf sugar in each vessel containing it ; the sugar soon produced the alcohol necessary to ripen it, and hence a pure article almost free from intoxicating influencec was produced with the least trouble imaginable. Dr. Jackson put several questions to Prof. Swallow, in reply to which, regarding phosphoric acid the Professor said, the lands of his State contained on an average 900 per cent., which was quite suili- Oient ior wi ftuwv&iui ^univalion or me soil. The Rt. Rev. Dr. Lynch gave quite an interesting account of the culture of the grape in North and South Carolina. He contended that a wine made from the pure juice of the grape, would soon drive from the community the miserable and poi- soiuons whisky and brandy now so abundant. He remarked, that a more genera! culture of the vine could not but prove a blessing to the people of the entire country. The Allitntlc TtHgraph. At last accountB, the whole ot the Atlantic submarine telegraph cable, had been coiled away on board the Niagara and Agamemnon, the two imera which are to perform the work of laying it, with the exception of an additional length of one hundred miles of wire which it had been determined to manufacture, and which was in rap'd course of construction. Great efforts to Insure success to lbe undertaking have been made. No precaution lias been neglected, no suggestion (and these, it is said, have been sent in by thousaudsl that was worth attention has been ignored, and all that skill and science can do has been accomplished. The length of cable wilh which the attempt was made last year was rather under than over 2400 miles, which was so near the quantity actually required that the first Ions ot 300 u.iles defeated the whole project ior the time beiu Now the length of the cable on board both vessels iu ptmimvtj ooia ,„[[„„, exemsmrJ or n_e shore ends, which amount to about thirty miles more. The two points to he connected are 1950 statute miles apart, so that 1100 miles, or 40 per cent., is allowed for accidents and slack iu paying out, This immense cable weighs one tun per mile, and is equally divided between tho two steamers. The share assigned to the Niagara is not all iu on** coil, but is divided into several lots which are distributed on the various decks, but of course ostly amidships. The heavy shore ends for both countries will go in the accompanying frigates. Last year the cable was coiled in one1 vast mass of 1250 miles long in the Agamemnon, and thia immeuse weight btowed amidships destroyed her equilibrium to a most uncomfortable degree, while the pressure of the mass on so small a surface strained her timbers. To obviate this disadvantage, the cable, though still coiled in the hold, is distributed so as to obviate too great a concentration of pressure. All the vessels ofthe squadron would leave PI j- mouth about the 25th of May, ou their experimental trip, which was expected to occupy from six to days. During this about one hundred miles of condemned cable will he used in ascertaining the efficiency of various buoys, laying down aud underrunuing the wire, &c, and wheu all doubts and theories are solved, the fleet will return lo Queenstown, to make final preparations lo start for lhe graud attempt about the 10th of June. About that period there ie a month of almost uninterrupted calm in the Atlautic, but boisterous weather, even if it does occur, it is thought is not likely to affect the progress of submerging afler as once fairly commenced, for the paying out machine is said *o be so sufficiently self-acting as to almost compensate in its action for any sudden in tlie stern ofthe vessel to the pitch of the sea. The squadron will miike all speed to the centre of the space to be traversed by the cable, where the splice betweeu the two halves will be made without loss of time. To overcome the difficulty caused by the two portions of lhe cable having their "lay " or twist of the outside spiral wires turning in different directions, and forming right and left hand screws, the splice will be secured to iodu of iron loaded with a weight in the centre ; in fact, an apparatus of the same kind as that by which railway carriages are coupled together. By this means the tendency of the different spirals to untwist each other will be overcome. There is 1500 fathoms ot water where the joint must be made. As soon as the cable has well nettled to the bottom the Niagara will steer for the New World, and the Agamemnon will return to the Old, wilh as much speed as the safety ot the undertaking will permit; so that the cable will be either laid or lost withiu fifteen days from the lime of starting. The depths to which the Niag ara will have to sink her portion vary quickly and irregularly from 1500 to 2500 fathoms, from 13 to about 3i miles ; and thie is the case also with the Agamemnou's portion of tbe distance. But ou the American side the water shoals easily and gradually towards Newfoundland, whereas on the British portion of tlie ocean lhe Agamemnon will have to surmount a tremendous ridge, whieh commences at about fifteen degrees^ west longitude, aud iu the course of a few miles the water suddenly shoals from 1750 fathoms to 550. Up this vast rocky precipice—ajmost as steep as the side of Mont Blanc—the cable must be laid with extreme care. To provide against dangerous weather, each vessel is provided with reels of strong wire rope, which can be attached to buoys, made in the manner of ordinary fishing lloats, c-ipable of sustaining a weight of several tons. Provided with this apparatus, tbe cable may be cut without hesitation, il ever the weather rope and buoy) allowed to rest almost upon ilit* bed of the ocean, to be hauled up as soon as the storm is over. UUnntt<r nt Sen—The Steamer Commodom The steamer Commodore sailed from San Fran-' cisto for Victoria with passengers for Fr»aer river mines. .She bad about 'iSOpasficngers, a crew *nd' officers amounting to 40, and about 80O torn of fieight. She left on Thursday, July 8, kt 4, p. m,- The first day out everything went along well, al-' though with a short sga and' a head wind. On Saturday tha wind increased—Sunday it blew % gale' the ship creaking and groaning, and laboring heavily. At midnight it was blowing very heavily,' with a high sea running, her gunwale under water and ship unmanageable.' We take the following Irom the account given by the S. F. Herald: Monday.—The ship lying in the trodgh'of tha' sea, helpless. Impossible to get headway on her.' Captain gave orders to throw dcckload overboard. The ship altogether unmanageable, and lying in1 the trough of the sea with lhe gunwale under the water. Orders given to man the pumps i water within a foot of th" «•■<"*; VP»r*j-aetaneu m l>«il j passengers quiet and calm, working at pumpa and bailing like heroes. Mr. Bernstein, one of the' passengers by the Commodore, and also one of those saved from the wreck of the Central America, describes the condition of tho Commodore at this juncture as being exactly similar to that of the Central America. At fi *.m. orders were given to shoot and throw overboard the horses, of which there were twenty on board. This scene it de-' scribed as being most pitiful. As one horse was led out, his owner stepped np to Capt. Staples and with tears iu his eyes staled that it was all he owned in the world, and was the dependence of himself and family. Capt. Staples ordered tht horBe to be led back, saying that if he could manage lo save the ship the horse should be saved also. At II a.m., one of the pumps gave out and the leak increased; the engine hardly moved ; tho steampipe was cracked and the boilers displaced, moving from'side lo side with the rolls of the ship. At 3 p M. a squall was observed coming up, whicli Capt. Staples dcterminiid to take advantage of, if =ible, and get bis ship before the wind. Iu half hour from that time the Commodore ans^erefl- her helm, and went round flying belcre the wind like a race horse. Ouly persona who bave been in similar circumstances can appreciate the feel-' iug of intense'relief experienced by all on board1 at this time. There seemed to be no longer any le, the seas foamed and roared in their wake without boarding, and rne' passengers fervently congratulated each other on their almost miraculous escape.
