THE BAILY "Let our just Censures Attend the True Event." BY J. A. SELBY. COLUMBIA, S. C., WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL 17, 1872. VOL. VIII-NO. 24. . Dolly Vardo?. Every now and then a whim seizes the public nudL-takes possession of people's ?enses, though why or wherefore it would be hard to say; but when once it has got a fair hold it has to be humored % until it is worn out or supplanted by some othor novelty. ? At tho present mo? ment the name which predominates everywhere, whioh is advertised in the papers, posted on walle in bills in large type, stuck up in the windows of dry goods stores, and heard in everybody's month, is that of Dolly Varden, the sprightly, coquettish heroine of Diakons' historical novel "Barnaby Budge." But the novel was written thirty years ago, and there seems to be no apparent reason why the London locksmith's pret? ty daughter should all of a sudden start out into popnlarity greater than she en? joyed when she was first introduced to the world. She was then mado the sub? ject of many a picture, and the celebrated artist Maclise, at' the suggestion and under the guidance of his friend Dickens, painted what may be called a portrait ot her, if there can be such a thing as the portrait of an imaginary oharaoter. It wus, however, a realization on canvas of the conoeption of the author, and it has given to her tho bodily form and the costume by whioh she will henceforth be identified. Just as wo form but one conception now of Uncle Toby and the widow Wad man, or of Sir Boger de Goverly and tho Spectator, or of Mr. Pickwick and Sam Weller, in consequence of our familiari? ty with the celebrated pictures and illus? trations in whioh they are represented, so will our notion of Dolly Varden bo limited to that of the artist, combined with the description whioh Dickens bas given her. In this she appears ia a "cherry-colored" hood and clonk and a hat trimmed with oherry-colored ribbon, &o. But, graceful and attractive as she is, there is nothing in common between her and the young ladies of the present day, who have their own peculiar graco and attractiveness. She lived and flou? rished while our war of independence was going on, and in which ber lover lost an arm. To find nny one who would resomblo her, we should have to go back to our great-grand-mother's time; and herein is a partial mystery of the Dolly Varden furore. Some one-in all proba? bility an enterprising dressmaker started the notion that one of tbe most striking novelties in the way of costume for ladies would be a revival of the anti? quated flowered chintz overskirt worn by English Indies io the middle of the last century, and it has been as successful a hit as any that has been made for nome time. Accordingly, the low-bodied dress, with skirts well looped up, sleeves tight to the elbow,, and then suddenly assum? ing the dimensions of sacks, leaving thc portion of the arm below the elbow bate! is to be the costume of the season, a home, it is to be hoped, for it would Boarcely do for walking or riding in with' ont some modification. And patterns ol every hue and every variety of sprig and flower are displayed in the store windows, to the no little anxiety of paterfamilias, who begins to wonder what sort of ap pearanco his women folk are going to as sumo when they step forth out of tin hands of the modiste, with their stravi hats looped up on one side, a la Dolly, and their flowered skirts looped up ot both sides, displaying the scarlet o; brown under-gnrment, in which om great-graud-mothers delighted, am whioh they wore short so as to displa; the open clocks of their red stocking and the shining silver buokles of then high-heeled shoos. And along with Dolly Varden bats am dresses come Dolly Varden jewelry am knick-knacks. It was an ingenious ide; to revive all this iu the name of Dicken: popular heroine, but it might as wei have been done iu tho name of Clarisa Harlowe, or Sophia Western, or Eveline or Olivia Primrose, or any other hero ino of tho period, for they all dressei in tho same costume as Dolly Vardo did. So far, indeed, as looped skirt are concerned, they have been in vogue more or less, for n century and a hal! and at this very time are fashionable i walking dresses. The Dolly Varde overskirt is not so much a novelty i itself; the attraction of it is to be found one may supposo, in the flowered pa tern of the material of which it is madi Our fashionable belles have scarcely ri covered from tho "Grecian bend;" an the luxuriance of their present Pompi door overdresses makes tho transition I tho tight bodice, low bosom and bat arms of Dolly Varden rather snddei Very young ladieB will doubtless expei to double their attractions-if such thing be possible-in their Dolly Vardi costume. And ladies of moro mutin ago who rotain their youthful appou ance, ns many do, may also appear 1 advantage in it-ai home. I Philadelphia Ledger. A SritiNa FEVER.-Abont this lin look out for tho cry of "reform." will come from all kinds of people. Yt will be surprised that those whose who livelihood has boon gained, nod who fortunes have grown hugo from tl practico of jobbery, bribery and corm tion, should now profess a longing f a return to honesty, purity and econ my. Wheo you remember that tho fi brings with it tho goneral election y< will coaso to wonder. Tho reform fov is very prevalent biennially, and al wa Bets ia about this time. It rages un the second Tuesday in October, when subsides, and there is seldom any reta of it for tho next eighteen monti: Even in the spring previous to t! election it is not dangerous and may 1 allayed by a pill culled "a ring nomin tion," nnd may bo much mitigated by sop called "a promise of a faithing." [Beaufort Republican. ------<f. ?--? There aro only thirty-one convict murderers in tho Michigan State priso but then it's not much of a year f murderers out there. How TO Do IT.-The following ob? servations on diet, habit, etc., will bo found quite valuable as any: Quinino should not be eaten after a hearty meal of India rubber; tho spermaceti con? tained in the former will unite with tho oxalic acid of the latter, aud wagon grease will be evolved with disastrous re? sults. Defore taking a bath the entire body should be oarefuliy washed. Then lay on a coating of tar and get into the water. It can't touch you any? where. It is not so fashionable as it was to chop ii cord of wood beforo breakfast; none but very old men, who cling to tho tradition of youth liko a lean leach to a stuffed frog, ever do it, and they com? monly perish at it. Getting out of bed in a perspiration is to bo avoided always lie in bed as long as you can find any excuso for it. Nothing is moro in? jurious than tho ordinary method of going up stairs; it causes tho alkali in tho blood to settlo in the corns, produc? ing Arianism and straugulation. Tho proper way is to lie on your stomach and go up feet first. Never sleep with your eyes shut; it is a degenerato habit. Bathing, aB intimated above, is conduct? ed on a wrong principle. It is proba? ble that the custom might bo advan? tageously abolished altogether. Bath? houses and bathing-rooms in dwellings are a thing of recent growth. Our grand? fathers seldom or never bathed; and it is conoeeded that they lived to be seve? ral hundred years old. Potatoes should always bo eaten with skins on ; skins contain bicarbonate of mucilage, which is just what tho liver requires. When tho custom of giving the skins to the poor originated, ecience was almost wholly unknown. There aro moro things it would be well to know, but a strict compliance with the rules already given will enable you to live as long as you will wish to. Further instructions would not prolong your misery. I Exchange. TUE COLOII QUESTION.-Tho color question is agitating the Free Masons in New Jersey. Two years ago application was made to the Grand Lodge of the State for a charter for a new lodge in Newark, to be called Alpha Lodge. It having been reported that the new lodge intended to initiate colored mon, the ap? plicants were questioned on that point, and declared the report false. A charter was granted to the new lodge, on receiv? ing which proposals for membership from a dozen colored men were enter? tained. This created great excitement among the white Masons throughout the State, and on the night when the candi? dates were to be balloted for, the Grand Marshal of the State appeared by order of the Grand Master, and demanded the charter of the lodge. He received it, and Alpha Lodge was formally suspend? ed. The matter came up at the last ses? sion of the Grand Lodge of New Jersey, aud, after a sharp discussion, tho char? ter of Alpha Lodge was restored by a veto of 112 to 103. Alpha Lodge then elected the colored candidates, and bo? gan to give them their degrees. This action aroused the white Masons to new elTbrts. Trenton Lodge, No. 5, imme? diately petitioned tho Grand Master to call a special communication of the Grand Lodge to reconsider its action, and a united effort wus made to again cecino tho revocation of tho charter of Alpha Lodge. The effort has failed. Grund Master Paine has refused to con? vene the Grand Lodge. Meanwhile Alpha Lodge had given its colored breth? ren the degree of fellow craft, and on Monday last two black men were raised, through the aid and assistance of their white brethren, to tho sublime degree of Muster Masou. Everybody baa heurd of Moigan. the man who was murdered, exported, spi? rited away, smothered, maimed, and in all possible ways maltreated by the Free Masons. Everybody, too, has heard of how travelers in Egypt, Malta and India have found him alive and well at each of those places, now living as au humble dervish, now as a knight, and now as a lonely hermit. Everybody will therefore he surprised-or not-to hear tho San Francisco Examiner say that Mr. H., a lawyer of San Francisco, told his sou long ugo that Morgan was not killed, but was put on board of a British man of-war. From this son tho Examiner IISB learned that iu 18-18 he, tho eou of Mr. H., went to Iloburtowu, in Van I) ie man's Land, and there mot au old frieud with whom he couvorsed about Morgan. Tho old friend laughed aud said, "Morgan is living here; I will introduce you lo him." And so ho took him to tho office of the Hobartown Advertiser, where ho met the veritablo Morgan, who told him that ho could not return to America, evon if ho would. Ile could not get a permit, and oven could he do so ho would bo killed on tho passage So tho recreant MaBon is yet ulive and well. A clergyman on exchange found a note in tho Biblo to tho effect that Brother A. requested the prayers of the church, that tho loss of his wifo might be blessed to him, &o. Tho preacher prayed most fervently. To his amazement and morti? fication bo fouud that tho note hud lain in tho pulpit a year, wbilo the bereaved gentleman was on this Sabbath sitting with a new wife iu tho congregation.
