THE CITY OF SOMEWHERE.
BY M. J. S. UPSHUR.
The beautiful City of Somewhere -
Is all ablaze of the sun.
Its thousand of thousand pinnacles
Aie of crystal every one.
And they gleam like inverted icicles
That the daylight shines upon.
Its pavements are pearl, and its gates are gold,
And Night never visits there;
And its gem-capp’d towers and jeweled domes
Tint all the surrounding air. '
H0 ”or the City of lomewhere,
Over the magic seal -
Bear on, Lifebark, upon perfumed tides.
The Rainbow land for Incl
In the beautiful City of Somewhere
Men never fade or grow old,
Heauty is beauty forever.
Hearts never fail or grow cold.
Kind words only are spoken—
Soothing, and loft and low
As the wind sighlngover onlian-harps,
Wherever the light winds blow
Over the City of somewhere;
Over the magic sea;
Bear on, merry bark, o’er the perfum’d tide,
Win that Rainbow-land for me!
In the beautiful City of Somewhere,
Song-birds are pluming their wings,
And the turquoise-tinted atmosphere
To its deepest concaverings,
And on its way to the deep-bass Sea
The tenor River sings.
No touch of olden Master.
No solemn and saintly choir, -
With hymn from dim cathedral aisle
Could rapture like this inspire—
Thls choral strain flom SomeWhere
Wafted over the sea,
Hol for the City of Somewhere—
JeWelcd and flowery land!

out those parts in graceful roundness and
symmetry, from the want of use have long
since dwindled away,leaving angular shoul-
ders, prOminent collar boneslflat and sunken

substitutes indeed, for the wise provisions of

This binding of fie arms to the side is
often productive of dusightly tumors in the

All surgeons are aware of this cause of their
very frequent occurrence, But we will leave
this portion of woman’s dress and hasten to
more important ones.
There is one relic of Barbarism yet ex-
isting among our American women—al-
though some of the most intelligent repudi-
' ate it—that really seems. to imply that
woman was sent into the world half made
up, to be improved in figure and proportion
by some French dress maker,—-We allude
to corsets_and tight-lacing. ~In what notion
of beauty this style of dress tOOk‘ its origin,
is not easy to discover. The angular pro-
icctions caused by a tightly drawn corset is
in direct opposition to the models of Gre-
cian or Roman beauty. In_ the flowing
robes of the Vesta, the Juno and' Diana,
every part is light and graceful. Nor can
we discover in the representation-of the
Muses any habilimcnts which, would lead
us to believe they wore corsets or stays, It
is said that the ladies-,3 do all their dressing
for the men—to look bgautiful and pleasing
in their sight.” This may be, but few men
of common sense appreciate their. efforts
when directed toward the production of
those wasp-like waists and boarded chests.
Scarcely a girl of fifteen yerrs is there in the
land who has not imbibed a disposition for
these death-dealing contrivanccs, and no
well-dressed lady of any age cab be found
whose chest is not laced and- bound up in
such a manner as is killing her by inches
every day she lives.
With man, who has but little restraint
from his clothing, it is found by experiment
that the capacity of the chest for the inflpir-

even now, a good many votes among some
civilized folks. . _ .

The New England vigor, so manifest in

in industrial enterprises. Carriage making,
