HARPER'S MAGAZINE for September has a terrible attack upon the "future King of England," the Prince of "Wales, alleging that he is a profligate, a spendthrift, and an ignoramus and that his example, which would discredit any age, is sure to bring the monarchy into fatal disrepute, and to convince the people of England, now resolved upon the most liberal and radical reforms, that a king is as useless an appendage, in the face of these reforms and his own excesses, as he is proving to "be a costly one. The Prince of Walea should read the advice of the old English sovereign to his son, in the second scene and third aat of the first part of Shakspeare's Henry the iVtb."

BY HOWABD GLYNDON.
What is the meaning of the terms "half dress" and "fulldress," fashionably speakng?
When a woman's arms and shoulders are comfortably covered up, as in winter, or only modestly outlined beneath some thinner material, as in summer, fashionably speaking she is only half dressed. But when sne appears with but an%inch of blonde lace, showiog below the armhole of her dress, with nothing but a morsel of muslin, or silk, or velvet, likewise not over an inch wide, between the aforesaid arm-hole and ber shoulder, and with shoulders and bust overflowing and bursting out of her tight corsage in such way that beholders, unused to such spectacles, are filled with a nervous dread as to the consequences of some unwary movement—then Fashion says that this same woman is in "full dress.
Followirfg up this theory, Adam and Eve made their first appearance in Paradise in full drees! Their primitive style of "full dress' was well enough for them—the first created children of God, the Father, and the first foster children of Nature the 2*urse—to whom, being pure, all things were pure. But God and cuBtom having long since decreed that we should cover ourselves, there has arisen in all civilized countries a conflict of opinion as to how far this covering process shall be carried in the caeo of women. And it is noticeable that man, woman's natural guardian and protector, has always, when the question has been brought home to him, ranged himself among those whom Fashion would call the half dress advo cates—but who are, in reality, the cham pions of full and sufficient clothing for woman.
How, I want to remind Miss Seraphin Azareeyes—who, because she has round and graceful white arms and seductive shoulders, wants to let everybody else into the secret, and, therefore, goes about in dresses as low-necked and short-sleeved as an indulgent Fashion will allow (argu ing that it cannot be wrong because wornen, who are known to be good and pure women, still do it)—of a patent fact and I want her to map out her own infer ences from it: It is that men alwayB op poso such exposure in their own wives, sis ters and daughters, whenevdt they express an honest opinion on the subject. If you talk of this matter to young Foozlefuss of Fifth Avenue-dle-dom—who, in spite of his proclivities for fussy neck-ties and fast trotters, isn't such a Dad fellow after all—he will put on the air of one of the knowing ones about town, and say, with a laugh, "Well, if the women like to do it, we fellows have no objection. The more of it the better for us—it's jolly for the men I"
And then be goes hc&e and finds his sister dressed for a hop, and you ought to hear him scold at her! "Do pull up your dress on your shoul ders you shan't go out looking like that Put something over your neck Or: "I wish you.would go and take that thing off and put on something decent I'm not going to have my sister going out dressed like a woman of no repute for every brute to leer at I"
Severe fact—not very elegantly express sed—my dear Miss Seraphina but most men are not remarkable for choosing thei words when they havesomething uopleas ant to say.
This sarnie Foozlefuss, later in the eve ning, lounges into a crowded ball room filled with the fuIT dressed women ,of fashionable society, and bis attention iB attracted by a lonely young women whom, perhaps, he would not have no ticed if her dross were not so conspicuous for the shortness of its sleeves and the lownessof its corsage—though, it may be, the blush upon her face is a mute protest against her garb. Perhaps it is your own dear self, Mies Seraphina who knows? But, at any rate, the sight of the fair, soft arms and dimpled shoulders of this young woman pleases him. He can help that—he would not be a man if he could help being pleased. Besides, she does not belong to him, and be is not re sponsible for her, and lie is free to gaze and to admire, untrammelled by any of a husband's or a brother's regrets. He seeks her side, not with that sentiment of half respectful awe which we involun tarily feel for true womanhood in its first virginal bloom, and approached as becomes such shrinking virginity, but simply drawn towards ber by admiration of her physical attributes.
He iB naturally inclined to undervalue even where be admires, and his manner at first verges on familiarity and flippantness, When be knows her better he sees that her girl-of-the-period costume has' been the cause of his niiejudging her, for she is a modest woman—although a modest woman masquerading in a dress which cannot be called so. Let those who will reconcile the discrepancy. I leave it to them.
He becomes ber lover in the course of time and, some day when they are talk ing over some coming festivity, and she, woman-like, is telling him what she is going to wear, be finds courage to whisper: "Oh, don't let any one see your shoulders to-nigh,t!"
That is the man's verdictl And it is so because he loves her and, if he did not love and respect her, never would be give her such counsel. It is a true and safe test! If he did not love her he might possibly say, if consulted in the matter— "Certainly wear a low-necked dress to-night you have beautiful arms and shoulders, and we gentlemen like to see womanly beauty exposed to the best sd vantage 1"
I don't say that he would certainly make such HQ answer but, in accordance with his first expressed opinion on subject, it would be tho only honest one that he could make.
How would any good young woman reconcile such an answor as tbat from a man whose good opinion Bhe valued? I •don't believe she would be pleased. I think in ber inmost heart she would be pained. But I don't think any man, whose tastes and feelings are not perverted, would so counsel his prospective wife. Because he loves her he oaturally wants those lovely shoulders to be veiled from all but himself and if she loves him she will be jealous of all such unnecessary displays in future. She will be careful not to outrage alike the unerring instinct of a man's honorable affection and her own womanly conscience.
I have here partially illustrated a remark which has been often made, namely: that the sight of a pair of white arms, and still whiter shoulders, artistically displayed, have driven many a man to matrimony which otherwise would never have proposed and some people may think that uiy illustration is a strong argument in favor of the very mode of dress which I have set myself to decry. Now, if any woman gets an idea from what I have said that she will increase her chances in the matrimonial mtrket by exposing as touch of her person as fashionable impropriety—otherwise miscalled fashionable propriety—allows, I beg of her to analyse the remark which I have just quoted, and to come to a distinct understanding of jest how much and how little It means. And then if she be a woman with a heart, soul and concience, she will surely be deterred from
I trying so dangerous and humiliating an
experiment. It nMJ§ns, neither love, nor SYMPATHY, HOT nor tenderness—it means, simply, ation of her physical attractions. And, I say, God protect the woman whom any man marries solely from such an impulse! Before a month is over she will know why I make this prayer for her.
We have enough of divorce cases in our courts to illustrate my warning.— More than cases enough of women who die early from brutal, or cruel, or indifferent treatment, or drag out miserable lives
Whenever the morals of society are in a more than usually lax condition the fashions of the day in woman's dress indicate the fact—just as- protigacy or intemperance leave their imprint upon the individual sinner.
It is quite useless to remind me that those illustrious women, the mothers and wives of our land's earliest heroes, dressed according to this fashion a fashion which is in itself indecorous, and has never at any period bfeen able to maintain more than an uncertain ground among good and refined people, even when aided by the powerful encouragement given it bv being unwittingly sanctioned by pure women. In those days our country was scarcely outof leading-strings to England. We dressed as ibey dressed at tbe Court ofthe reigning George, across the water It
was
then too early in the day with us
for a dress reform movement but now it
is
different-now we have no such excuse. How can we consistently assert that we are one of the leading people of the earth, if we cannot venture to modify foreign fashions to suit the tastes and the principles ofthegreat mass of our people! American woman are celebrated every, where for the dash and elegance of their
style of
dress but I would much rather
bave them lauded for the more womanly qualities of modesty and simplicity IDI attire which are not at all incompatible with a refined taste, but are rather the
0ffSomegp°eople
argue that in this matter
of dress custom and habit are every thin* They cite tbe fashions of bar baric countries, where women appear in a nude or aemi-nude state, and maintain that national morality is not the worse for it. I reply that if you will have, the luxuries of civilized life you have its drawbacks.
Civilization fosters the gpwth of the passions in its very repression olthem.Therefore, different customs, different at tire and stronger
restraints must be
adopted as civilization culminates. I want to present to all impartial ipen and women another test by which to try this question.
Every Art Academy of any celebrity must have living nude models to draw from. When the scholars of the Boy a I Academy in London meet together, and the model on the platform betore them is a living woman, either partially draped or entirely nude, the occasion understood by all to
devo of
A"™"
feeling as if the wom»n were a porpse, or as if they were going into tb^ianctuary to pray to God. The figure before them is to the eyes no longer a woman It is an art abstraction—a marble statue—a thing with which they have no sympathy and no affinity-in short, anything but a awrnan. And they? They roust forget that they are men. They are the high priests of Art-antomatons-what you will-but their relations to the being before them are entirely changed for the space of time that the lesson lasts.
But when young and beautiful women go, only half draped—and I am not, exaggerating, since the present style of dress allows a lavish display of anklesas well as of neck and shoulders in ball dress-notto sit or stand on a platform to be gazed at from afar byeyesthatare coldly and passion lessly critical, and that only in behalf of Art-but into a crowded ball room, under a full glare of light, where men's, eyes have full lipense, and men's imaginations not only have full play, but are in every conceivable way stimulatad—to be stared at, and criticised and jostled, and taken around the waist by any man who chooses to ask them to waltz—1 say that when they go so dressed, to such places under Buch circum stances, as women, to meet men as men the subject begins to have a grave bear ing upon national morality.
The old Pagans—whose customs- tbi free mode of exposing womau scantily robed at nocturnal festivities is a remnant -frankly acknowledged the purposes for which they met together.. It was for the glorification and satisfaction of mans animal nature. It was for purposes of gluttony and riotous revelry^ and debauch. But we, of this age, being Chris tians, at least in name, aspire professed ly to something higher and more enno bling, even in our festivities. We get together, nominally for the purpose of enjoying ourselves in a rational and re» fined way, and not to indulge in a heathenish saturnalia. Then let us cast away this mode of attire—which was first adopted in women as the garb and insigna of grosser pastimes—aB unfitting a code ofpune morals, which alone is the one and only (hing on which a republican nation can depend for continued salva tion and prosperity.
Young girls and riper "matrons need not go about robed like religous fanatics but let those to whom a high-necked and long-sleeved party dress would be a grievous affliction content themselves with showing a modest rim of shoulder above their bodices. And let them not forget that well turned white armB can be Been and appreciated without of necessity being exposed cleiar up to the arm-pits. No fair young girl ever lost anything in the estimation of men, whose opinion is worth having, by appearing with neck, shoulders and arms chastely veiled in delicate lace or muslin, instead of exposing them to
the promiscuous geze of a public asst bly. We hoard away the jewel that we prize the most we draw a curtain before the picture that we dote upon we hide our most sacred feelhrgS in our hearts we veil the shrine of tbe temple wo hedge tbe lily about lest its whiteness should be soiled we want to cover up from other eyes the things that are the fairest, the dearest, and the most sacred to us.
Ob, woman tbe most sacred thing, the fairest and dearest that man bas in this world, is yourself. And I hold that man's instinctive protest is the best guide in this matter.
And the feeling of tbe father, the broth er, the lover and the husband, when his nature is unperverted, is that tie arms that caress and enfold him, the bosom, which is tbe dearest home his head can bave on earth, should be as sacrol as was the holy of holies in the days of old Jewish rites.
A woman's body is the temple of her soul, and her soul's outward symbol. What we want to keep pure, holy and undefiled, we do hot expose to be a common bait for all the eyes of all the world, pure and impure, to gloat upon.
The way in which men, as a body, act and express themselves, when brought face to face with this dress reform question, is inconsistant, unjust, and ungenerous to women, and unworthy to themselves as gentlemen they tbiuk because a woman is not their sister, or wife, or sweetheart, that it is no concern of theirs how she demeans herself in this matter of drees.. On the contrary, they seem eager to help push her into a false position by hypocritical compliments, and phrases of hollow admiration, which are as false and bitter as Dead Sea fruit, iT she will but stop to analyze the feelings from which they spring, the motives which prompted them. Too much familiarity breeds contempt. No one knows this better than the man »ho watches over the dress and deportment of his vifa or sister with the stern jealousy of as Oriental, while at the same lime he blandly encourages the wives and daughters, and sisters of other men in every species of license.
=====
WomiKl do not always know—the very young ooee especially—that a certain dash and fratdenl In the style of dress encourages familiarity in the manners of mefc toward them. They too often follow blindly after the reigning mode, without questioning its meaning, or the effect It will have upon men's opinions of them. They feel strong because they go in droves, and in droves thoy dare to indulge in a style of dress for which any one woman would be ignominiously hooted" out of society, ir she dared to appear in it alone, aqd upon any occasion for which it is not sanctioned by fashion.
If men would but give up their a bom* inable two-jided policy on this question, and act toward every reputable woman, whom they find masquerading in a disreputable attire^ Just as they would under like circumstances toward their own wives, daughters or sisters, as far as is consistent with surroundings and circumstances, this mode of dress would soon bedrivento its rightful home—the haunts of the profligate and the lost woman.
For my own dear countrywomen I bave one wish, which has moved me to speak as I have spoken. Plain words io say, but words which must be speken, nevertheless, and which are hotter spoken sooner or later. It is that they should be known all over the world as the most modest of women in dress and deportment, even as they are now distinguished for wit, elegance, patriotism and innate purity" of character. Let ths women of other countries belie themselves if they will, by a mode of attire which is in direct opposition to tbe dictates of their natural modesty, but let ours set a bright example in this respect to tbe world, aQd then, indeed, tbe nations shall rise up and proclaim tbe American women blessed Packard's Monthly3.
Tale ofthe Michigan SoldierA correspondent ofthe Boston Traveller, meeting with one of his old army comrades, now living at Beaufort, South Carolina, got the following tale: "I had as nice a home as any one," said he "until the war broke out. From my mother's little farm I could see Detroit, and had often made my mother promise that when I was twenty-one she would consent to let me live there. I bad one sister, a tall, slender girl who used to think me an oracle of wisdom. I was rather wild and unruly, as nearly all boys are who have no fathers livng, and I ran away from home once twice and tried to get employ ment in the city. Each time failed, and after that I told my mother and sister whenever I was going awey from tbe house. It happened one day, when they were calling for men in 1862 I was in the city, with our market-wag on, having told my mother that*I should be home at five o'clock. That morning was the last time I ever saw them. While I was in this city I enlisted, on a sudden impulse, and sending the wagon home by a boy I started with the company that night for Washington. Why I enlisted so suddenly, or took it into my head to leave my mother and sister without say ing good by, I do not know. It was the only action I ever took without any motive at all. I shall never forget my mother's first letter. She did not blame me—It could not be helped. She only wished that I bad bid my sister good by, for my sudden departure had almost bro ken her heart. The next letter came fringed, with black, and told me my sister was dead—died thas suddenly, I bad no doubt, because I did not bid her good by, Oh I how I cried and wished her back,
A year passed on and my mother's let ters began to be cheerful again and she hoped that tbe years would pass quickly, and ber boy come to care for her as he had done. How often I sat in my tent writing and crying, thinking of my dear pother. Often I was ashamed of raypelf. A man of twenty-two crying! But I am sot ashamed of it now. At last we were ordered into this expedition, and came down here with DuPont. I receiv ed a letter from mother here, saying that she was iu good boalth, and had but little care except for her dear boy, who she hoped would some day say 'good morning,' to make up for leaving her without saying 'good by.' It was the last letter I ever received from ber. By some egregi ous blunder the adjutant of our regiment reported me dead at Port Royal Ferry and the Detroit papers published tbe official report. The hired m$n who did the work on the farm has since told me that my mother bad put on her glasses and taken up tbe paper, as she always did after supper, and bad been reading for fifteen or twenty minutes, when she sud den ly exclaimed, 'Can* it be? my poor boy!' and fell over side*wise on the floor, and in a few moments was dead. 'I went home once, and this lady who is now my wife, was training the vines to grow over my mother's window, but the bouse, was cold and cheerless, and 1 bave never been back."

DEAR SIR:—It is with much pleasure that I say to you that I consider the PLANTATION BITTEHB of untold value. In the fall of 186? I was taken with Chills and Fever, with the most severe pains in my chest and head. It was with great difficulty that I could breathe My lungs were greatly distressed, and there was severe pain in my right side, by spells, could hardly get up from my bed. I called the Doctor, who attended me all win ter without tbe I&aet benefit. About the first of August I commenced using your PLANTATION BITTERS—a wine-glass full three times a day—and have used it most of the time since, andl am now well and strong, able to do all my own work and the care of a larn family.
