The pines were dark on Kamoth hill,T h e i r sou; ; was soft ami low ;

T h e b lossoms in the swoet May wind\W-re. railing like the snow.

The blossoms drifted at our (feet,The orchard birds Bang elear;

The sweetest and the saddest dayIt seemed of all the year.

For, more to me than birds or (lowers,.M_\ playmate left her home,

And took with her the laughing spring,The music and the bloom.

She kissed the lips of k'lh ami kin,She laid her hands In mine ;

What more could ask the bashful boyWho fed her father's kine 1

She left us In the bloom of May ;The constant yearn told o'er

Their seasons with the .sweet -May morn,JJtit she came buck 110 more.

I walk with noiseless feet the roundOf uneventful years :

Still o'er and o'er I sow the springAud reap the autumn ears.

She lives where all the golden yearHer summer roses blow ;

The dusky children of the suuBefore her come and go.

There, haply with her jeweled bands,She smooths her silken gown —

No more llie homespun lap wherein1 shook the walnuts clown.

The wild grapes wait us by the brook,And brown nuts on the hill

And still the May-day flowers make sweetThe woods of Follymill.

The lilies blossom in the pond,The birds build in the tree,

The dark pines sing on Ramoth hillThe .slow song of the sea.

I wonder if she thinks of them,Ami how the old time seems—

If e'er the pines of Ramoth woodAre sounding in her dreams?

I see her face, I hear her voice,Does she renumber mine?

And what to her is now the boyWho fed her father's kine f

What cares she that the orioles buildFor other eye.s than ours?

That .other hands with nuts are tilled,And other laps with flowers ?

O, playmates iu the olden time !Our mossy seat is green ;

Its fringing violets blossom yet,The old trees o'er it lean.

The winds so sweet with birch aud fern,A sweeter memory blow :

And there in spring the fairies siugThe song of loug ago.

And still the pines of Kamoth wood.Are moaning like like the sea—

There is no more proliQc cause of ro-pining and discontent in life th,m isfound iu looking back upon by gonemistakes. The word "i i" is on all ourlips in accounting for the various evilswhich beset us, and wo are fond of per-suading ourselves and others that couldcertain crises have been decided differ-ently our wholo course in life wouldhave been one of iininingled success, in-stead of ihe partial failure that it so fre-quently appears. This melancholy re-view is not wholly erroneous. Nouecan tell how >yeightymay be the resultsof even trifling actious, tor how muchof the future is bound up in every daydecisions. Wo can nover calmly reviewour past life without being conscious ofhaving fallen far short of the ideal withwhich we started, and compared withwhich the icality feema indeed but aconfused medley of unfinished begin-nings.

The great error men make in this re-vision is in attributing their failures tocircumstances, instead of to character.—They see the mistakes which lio ou thesurface, but fail to trace them back tothe sources from which they spring.—Tho truth is that crises are the occa-sions for bringing out predominatingpuiuts of character. They are testj oftho naturo and qualities of tho man,father than causes of future tuccess orfailure. Chances are'lost and opportu-nities wasted ; advisers' i.l chosen, anddisastrous spi culations undertaken ; un-happy attachments funned ai.d ill-sortedmarriages contracted ; but ther»-is noth-ing properly accidental in these steps.They are to be regarded as tho resultsof unbalanced character as much ascauses of future misery. The disposi-tion, of mind that ltd to these eirorswould, under other circumstances, havehad to different, but not less lamentableresults.

We se this clearly in judging of oth-ers. We attribute their mischanceswithout compunctions to tho faults thatwo see in them, and Bomctimes even

Nestled among the trees at the foot)f u hill, in a little brown, one-story,wooden house, lived tho Widow Wood.iho li'v.ri ..II alone, save her little boy

—her only cbilu, Jounnj. ^>,. „_/band was a poor, hard-working man.A'hohad con'.rived to pay for their littleborne, having one cow, aud kept his lit-le garden iu good order, when he wasuddeiily removed by death. Johnny

ivas too young to remember his father,ud the neighbors lived at a distance,

and so he and his widoweu mother wereull in all to each other. The school-

ouse was far off, too, but as soon sis hisittle legs had got lung enough, Johnny

was found at school. Eurly iu themorning, washed and combed, he wouldkiss his mother for a loug day, with hisittle dinner-basket on bin arm, whilehe, charging bun to be "a good boy,"vould turn Lack to her lonely home, topin or weave, or to do something by

which to earn B"pittance towards theirupport. Sometimes she would go outo meet him towards night when ehohought it time for him to come home,

aud then hand in hand, little Johnny•vould tell bis joys aud sorrows, how theoys called him "a baby," and a "milk-op," because he stuutly defended bis

mother, and then Miss Pierson praisediim for getting his lessons so well, andailed him her "model little boy."

"I don't think they ought to laugh atua if we are poor, do you, mother r 1

'•Why uo, not if we do as well as wen.""They throw and pull mo round, they

do, because I am litile and not strong,can't fight them ; but 1 tell you what,

mother, I'll grow up, and '11 be a goodicholar, and be a doctor or a lawyer, audhen we will live in a big house, andou shall dress like a lady, aud I'll haveood clothes, and see if they will laughLy more V '

"Well, Johnny, you be a good boy,and learn to love your books, and I willdo all I can for you." The widow wiped

tear silently from her face, and feltthat this little confiding boy was dearerto her than all the wealth in the world.

So she silently toiled and denied her-self everything possible, and kept herboy at school. When ho bad learnedall they could teach him at the little redschool houso, she gent him to tho acade-my. He was the poorest boy in theschool, the poorest dretsed and fed.—People wondtred why Widow Woodshould "kill herself with work, just tokeep that great boy at school." Theysaid ''hething for bis mother."

But the widow kept silent and toiledon. At leugth the time came whenJuhnny was ready to go to college —Could she ever meet the expense '{ Shehad earned and saved something everyyear, by her loom, iu view of this possi-bility.

After he had entered college, she milk-ed aud drove her own cow to pasture, cuther own wood all winter, and one day inthe week, sometimes two, went out wash-ing. Soon it began to be whisperedaround that "the widow's boy was doingwell;" aud thou, "that ho was a finescholar ;" atid one day he graduated, thefirst scholar in hit class. Tho poor moth-er took his arm aft'T tho exercise of theday was over, and with tears and smilesw;lk'.(l with him through the streets, thehappiest mother in all that city.

A lew years after she saw him takinga commanding position in his profession—one of the most honored and (litting-uifhod men in our country. She didsee hi in iu hi- elegant house, surroundedby a great library, and a most giftedfamily of children, and she did iivc withand lean upon him ap upon a strongstaff; but I um uot sure that she was

mrike cruel mistakes in the investigation;but in reviewing our own course, seif-love draws a veil over our imperfections,and we persuade ourselves that unavoid-uble misiakesor uhfortunate circumstan-ces are the entire cause of all our mis-fortunes. This spirit of mind foon leadsus to implicate also friends and connec-tion?, and where blame is inevitable, tothrow it upon others, rather than to ac-cept our lull share. If a mistake iw ac-knowledged, the responsibility is shifted

ting defects too glaring lo be enure y'ig-nored, they are usually blamed upon adefective education, and tho guardiansof youth are made tho solu offendem.—It is true that no cireumst mces nre al-ways favorable ; no training perfectlyjudicious; no friends wholely wise;—yet he who is ever shifting the blame ofhis mischances upon these external caus-es, is the very man who has tho mostreason to trace them to his own inherentweakness or demerits. I t is questiona-ble whether the habit of looking muchat mistakes, even of our own, is a veryprofitable one. Certainly tho practiceof moaning over and bewailing them,and charging upon them all the evilsthat afflict us is most injurious to ourfuturo course, and the greatest hin-drance to any real improvement ofcharacter. Acting from impulse, andnot from reason, is one of the chief caus-es of these mis'akts, and ho who wouldavoid them in the future will submit allhis sudden impulses to the searchingand peuetrating ordeal of hisbe.-t reasonbefore acting upon them. Above all,the steady formation of virtuous babit3,the subjection of all action to principlerather than policy; tho stern and un-flinching adherence to right as far audas fast as it is discovered, are the bestsafeguards against mistakes in life. Ifthese are cultivated and observed, weshall look back upon past error?, not tobemoan them or to blame others forthem, but only as a means of avoidingthem in the future, by controlling theevil and developing the good poi:its ofour character.

Packing the Ears.Dr. Hall says "picking the ears" is a

most mischievous practice ! in attempt-ing to do this with hard substances, anunlucky motion has mauy a time piorcedthe drum; Nothing shiiiper nor harderthan the end of the little finger, with thenail pared, ought ever to be introducedinto the ear, unless by a physician.

Persons are often seen endeavoring toremove the wax of the ear with thehead of a pin ; this ought never to bedone ; first, because it not anly endan-gers the rupture of the ear by beingpushed too far in, but if not so far itmay grate against the drum, excite in-flamatiun and an ulcer which will finallyeat all the parts away, especially of ascrofulous constitution; second, hardsubstances have often-slipped in andcaused the necessity of painful opera-tiers to fish ( r cut cut ; third, the waxis manufactured by nature to guard theentrauce from du«t, insects, and uninod-itied cold air, and when it has e ubserv-ed its purpose it becomes dry, sculy,light and in this condition is easily push-ed outside by tew formation of waxwithin.

Occasionally wax tray harden andmay interfere with the heating; but,when this It t\ e case, it is the part ofwisdom to consult a physician and lethim decide what is tho remedy ; if onecannot be had, tho only safe plan is tolet fall into the ear three or four dropsof tepid water, night anil morning ; thesaliva is better still, fur it is softer andmore penetrating, but glycerine is farpreferable to either ; it u one of theblandest fluids iu Nature, and very rap-idly penetrates the hardened wax, coolsthe parts, and restores them to a health-ful condition. If in a week there is nota decided improvement in the hearing,medical advico ought to bo had at once,as next to the eye, the ear is the mostdelicate organ of tho body.

From the Chicago Specimen.Stick a PJsi There.

I t is undeniablo that the greatestcurs-e resting upon the printers andjournalists of the country to-day, is theacquired thirst for strong drink. Fromthe highest to the lowest rank of theprofession, glaring examples can befound of those who havo been led awayuntil they have so far lost their manhoodas to be unable longer to control theirappetites, and who alternate between fitsof bacchanal revelry at.d times of sobrie-ty when the recollection of their vvenkness produces a mental ngony whiclt imes them to the verge of insanity nnsuicide. Following iu their footstepsthe young men—the mere boys, even—are coming torword to rehearse the feart'ul tragedy of disappointed hope*, blasted affections, and good nurnts dishonored. At the present rate of progress ii:that direction, in a short time it will betrue, as ofteu esserted, that a soberpriuter is an exception to tha geaeralru'e. Before us, as wo write, lies anobituary notice of one of the mostbrilliant nun connected with the Amer-can press, which rends thus:

"The closing years in the life of a manso gifted were pas-ed beneath an ever-deepening cloud of error and misfortunothat all but obscured the good he haddone, wrecking tho body while parahiz-ing tho once brilliant intellect, whichelse might uow. in its full ripeness, havegiven tho world in ample fruition therich fruits of its early promise."

Only a few years ago, a young man,a Chicago printer, whom we have knownfrom boyhood, stood before us, talkingof his own weakness (he was then recov-ering from the effects of fl three days'debauch,) aud pledging himself to a re-newed effort to break loose from thetoils which were fa6t gathering aroundhiin. (Said he : " ' W i n e and Women'is very pretty talk aud very poetical ;but 'Wantons and Whisky' tell a goodeight more truth !" Our poor friend,yvheq we last heard of liini, was a hope-less inebriate iu a Western city ; andwe expect to hear that he, one of thenoblest aud most generous of men in hisimpulses, has goue to a dishonoredgrave,

I t can hardly bo expected what wesay hero will save any of the older mem-bers of the craft, who have already goneso far as to be helpless ; but we hope toimpress upon the younger men, whosehabits are now forming, and who are

one and all,declared ihat the thing wasthe b e t of tho k:nd ever heard of, butdetermined that ;\e would pay thorn backfor it one of these days, aud we will."

Absurd Names tjr

Fow more ridiculous practices prevailthan the one that gives foreign and inap-propriate Dunes to the money of ourcountry. One may travel for daya andweeks in some of tlio States and hardiyhear tho words dollar, dime, or cent.IIo pays four shillings fora dinner anda eixpenoo for an apple. The livery-man charges twenty shilliugs for the usoof a horse, while tho boys vend mo'assescandy for a penny a stick. We haveoue proverb about "being penny-wiseand pound-foolish," another in whichallusion is made to a "nimble sixpence,'and still another in which the virtues oan "honest penny'1 are prized. Foreigners, as a class, use American names formoney much more generally than do ourold settlers.

I t is rather hard to give a reason forthis practice of calling things by wrongnames. If there is anything in h i hour forefathers showed wisdom superiorto that of tho rulers of other countries,it was in the adoption of a circulatingmedium so easily reckoned that themerest child could understand and com-pute it. The substitution of dollars,dimes, and cents, for pounds, shillings,and pence was as great an improvementin its way as was the adoption of oursimple form of government in the placeof tbe complicated system of the BritishEmpire. But it is a little surprisingthat after the lupee of nearly a centurywo still hear tho words shilling andpenny almost as freely used as they wereby our ancestors in the days of George

"Merrimao Print?, enly a shilling

sooo to assume control of the affairs ofthe country, the fact that there is nodanger to great as that attending themwhen they first begin dallying with thetempter. I t is indisputable that theman who indulges, even moderately, inardent spirits cai>not be trusted at alltimes ai,d in all places, even to care forhis own interests, let alone the interestsof others committed to his charge. Thohabit of indulgence is one which steadilyi i K ' i e : i b d o s i lgrows upon one, until atlast the fetters are so strong that nowhen "the prime of manhood" is reachcd, a time when one's powers should bedeveloped for the fullest usefulness tohimself and others, the habitual drinkerfinds himself stranded, broken down, andcompelled for the sake of mere subsis-tence, to submit to the drudgery of theproft ssion, being a hewer of wood and acarrier of water to one his inferior•ia natural qualifications, but who, bykeeping his head clear and his nervessteady, has been enabled to seize theriolden opportunities which, at oue timeor another, are presented to every man,and so has been borne on to wealth andpower.

Young man stick a pin right here : Ifyou have auy respect for yourself, anyregard for the feeling of those who arebound to you by the ties of kindred oraffection', any aspiration for tho futuroin this world or tho next, any prido inyou criift, any love for your country,any hopes for that Humanity of whichyou are a part^em", never taste of strongdrink.

"We are after tho Indians hot blast,and I tell you, the man who picks thesefellows up for dogaus finds himselfwofully deceived. A part of our troophad been on trail of a small band ofSioux, and they had dodged us, andbeat us, until we determined to havethem, and it appeared, so suddenly, too,that there was no chance for them toescape. Each man seated himselfsquarely in bis saddle, aud with revolverin band we dashed en. There squateach identical Sioux ou his pony just asthough we were miles away, and asstoically indifferent as though they didn'tcare a continental. As we, at fullgallop drew near, the officer in commandfelt that w? were ridflrg into some trap,but it was too late to sound a retreat,and on we went.

" I think the distance between us andthe Sioux and their ponies was justtwelve feet, before a single rt-dskin hadmoved a muscle; from tbe shoulders ofeach identical Siuux camo the fiery redblanket hi wore, und up aud down itwas shaken vigorously in the very facesof our horses. We had boasted a greatdeal over those horses, and they woulddo anything we wanted them to—thatis to say, they would drive through aprairie fire, alongside a bull buffalo,through, a prairie 'Jog village, and overdead Indians, but I tell you, you oughtto have seen them, to a horse, turn tailand run from those blankets. We weregetting along so nicely, and each troop-er was so eager to inako a dead surething of his redskin, that wo let thehorses havo their own way, and we re-pented of it. Just as frightened as theycould be, they paid no attention to curb,and nway they went in every direction.

"Troopers! were sprawling on theground and others were clinging tohorses' manes, with both feet not onlyout of the stirrups, but pointing up inthe air It was the worst stampede Iever saw, and I have looked at 'some' inmy dny. If the Sioux had followed up,they might have made a few scalps, butthey seemed so well pleased will) tho re-sult of the trick that those who were un-

horscd near them say they disappearedas if tbey had gone down through theearth. When our troop assembled, we,

yard,1'is seen iu the windows of half ofour dry goods stores. Peony collectionsare taken up in Sabbath schools, and

oys are bribed by sixpence to go toed early when there is company at theouse. New Eugland can hardlv be

said to have adopted the new currencyyet. The Boston man still pnys a chil-ling for a plate of oyster.-, and gives fourpence ha'penny for a glass of soda In acountry store in Yankee Ian), "twentyshillings," "three and sixpence," "nine-pence," and "one and threepence" areused to designate the prices of goods,much r,s they were in tho days of JohnHancock.

The continued use of the words shil-lings and pence, when we have no coinor scrip of corresponding value, is themore remarkable when we find ourCunadian neighbors adopting our deci-mal currency, and inducing the Homegovernment to supply them with a coin-age corresponding with it. I t strikesoue as being a little peculiar, after ridingon the Grand Trunk Railway in Canada,and hearing dime and cent as the priceof a pic or cako, that when he passes theline and comes into "the States" he hearsarticles.

Goodrich—dear old Peter Parley, ofthe little folks—tells us in that valuablevolume, the Recollections of a Lifetime,in alluding to the distinctions betweenthe Federalists and Democrats, in thedays of the Hartford Convention, thatthe former always used pounds, shillings,and pence iu speaking of tho value ofthings; while the latter employed forthe same purpose the words dollar, dimeand cent. Shilling was a word thatsavored of the aristocrutic; while dollarwas a plobcian expression. I t was gen-toel to say that a thing cost a penny,but low aud vulgar to say it was worth acent.

Perhaps similar motives may havehad something to do in keepiug up thisfoolish custom; but whatever may bethe reason for having onco adopted it,there is certaiuly no cause for longerusing words that have a different -significance in different parts of tho countryai:d sometimes in the same State, andwhich never expressed the value whichis conveyed by the same words whenused in Englaud. Our shilling ig ordi-narily 12>o cents or 16% cents, while theEnglish shilling is equivalent to about23 cents of our money. National pride,if nothing else, should induce us to cor-rect so fuolish an abuBe of words. Letparcuta and teachors call the attentionof the young to the impropriety ot ttuscustom, and especially let merchants seta right example in helping the reform.There is no more propriety in ciitling acent coined in our mint a peuny, thaniu calling a member ol our Congress alord.

A Witty English Lawyer.Sergeant Davy was tho originator of

one expression that has been attributedto many a clever lawyer in this as iu theold oountry. Lord Mansfield was notattached to religious holidays. l ie ovenordered tho doors of his court to bethrown open on Asb-Wcdnesday. Thisdisregard of Lent was by no meauspleasing to many. But emboldened bysuccess, it is eaiil the Chief-Justice pro-ceeded to suggest butiuess on Good-Friday. He announced this very eccen-tric intention in court probably onThursday. But Sergeant Davy uponthis addressed tho peer on the instant,aud told him that if it were so, his lord-ship would be tho first judge that haddone it since Pontius Pilate. Thatanecdote is, therefore, at least one hun-dred and ten years old. In humor,Davy was quite a match for the ChiefJustice, who was by no means skilled iuthe higher principles of law. He oueday broke out against the sergeant withthis gibe : "If this bo law, sir, I mustburn all my books, I t-ee." ''Yourlordship had better rend them first," re-joined Davy-. He once had a very largebrief with a fee of two guineas only atthe back of it. llin client asked him ifIn; Lad read his brief. He pointed withhis finger to the brief, ar.d said: "Asfar as that I've read, und for tho life ofme I cau road ho farther," He wasengaged aft tbe old Botley, ami a verystrong case having been nude out,Judge Gould asked who was concernedfor tbe prisoner J upon which SergeantDavy said : "My lord, I am ponoernedfor him, and very much concerned afterwhat I have heard."

Once when he was called to accountfor taking silver from his client, and sodisgracing the profession, ho replied, " I

I ld

gold ; but I took evory farthing tha fel-low had in tho world, and I hope youdon't call that di-'p'riiciug the profession.This anacdote has since been appropria-ted by many a good in'an, but it'sDavy's.

It once fell to his lot to questionman closely who offered himself as bail,"Sir," said tl;e sergeant, "how do youmake out that you are worth £3,000 ?Tho gentleman stated tho particulars ofhis property up to £2,940. "That's allvery good, but you want £G0 moi o tobo worth £3,000." For that sum," re-plied the gentleman, not at all dfocoD-eoi tod, ' ' t have a note of hand of oneMr. Serjeant Davy, aud I hope he willhave the honesty soon to settle it." Thelaughter at this extended to tho bench,the sergeant looked abashed, and LordMansfield observed in bit usual urbanetono : "Well brother Davy, I think wemay accept the bail."—"Old EnglishLawyers" in Harpers Magazine.

Picture of a Florida Town.Cory O'Lanus gives tho following

pen-and ink eketch of iho chief city ofFlorida:

Jacksonville, which is the most con-siderable city in Florida, and is growingto bo a big place.

The soil ii loose, white sand, exaotlylike our favorite summer resort, andwith no grass to be seen, but trees grow-ing out of it in tropical luxuriance. Thesidewalks over the greater portion oftho city are planked, but the roadwaysare left in their native state, which isnot conducive to fast driving. Camelswould be useful down here, though themules seem to wade through the sandvery comfortably, light loads being the

gracingtook silver

profebecause

, p ,I could not get

order.

Like most general names, this title of'Land of Flowers," given to Florida, is

a delusion. Except the magnolia andthe orange blossoms you rarely pee aflower. I have seen just oue rosebushin Jacksonville. The garden flowerscommon with us will not grow iu theoose sand, only the deep rooted vegeta-

tion that strikes tho more solid s'ratum.•an be cultivated. Occasionally yousee a garden where the soil has evident-ly been prepared, where flowers aregrowing. But for every flower garden(•ou find in Jacksonville; you will fitden in Charleston, to make the compan-ion with a Southern city.

.So with fruits. We are worse off iuJacksonvil e for fruits and vegetablesthan you are in Brooklyn. I was goiiigto luxuriate on strawberries and cream,on green peas and other summer dain-ties. No strawberries have I seen yet;we have peas at the table, but they arecanned and Came from the North. Evensalad is scarce, and radishes phenomenal.We have oranges, and that is all, andthey are dearer in the streets of Jack-sonville, within Bight of the trees ouwhich they grow, than they are ia NewYork.

pasturage lieVe,' coasequi'iniyT'VjxmiruJtr.Everybody uses condensed milk. I haveseen two or three cows here, most de-jected looking animals they were, modelsfor Pharaoh's lean kino.' Fresh milkfor drinking purposes is served at the ho-tels, but it is a very thin and suspiciousHuid. The butter is all imported. Yououldn't get a pound of butter out of a

Florida cow iu seven yearn.

The only animals that flourish hereare pigs. The pigs are one of the fea-ture* of Jacksonville. They are aboutas numerous as its population, and areheld in such esteem that they have thefreedom of the streets, in return forwhich they do scavenger duty for thecity. These pigs interested trio; liko thepopulation thoy are of mixed colors. Inever before saw such a porcige varietyof colors. There are black pigs, redpigs; brown pi/rs, yellow pigs, black audwhite pigs, and speckled of every pat-tern, and a few white pigs.

Jacksonville has a business street,which is lined on either side with stores,and is quite a lively little thoroughfare.Some of the shops remind you of East-ern cities you read about, in having nofront, but being entirely epen to tbestreet.

The Wonderi of Compound Interest.But few people have anything like an

adequate sense of the vest cumulativepower of compound interest. Somemathematically inclined person recontlypublished in a New York paper thoamount of a cent supposed to bo put outat compound interest at tho birth ofChrist and continued at interest up to1870. The amount thu» stated was ex-pressed be forty-fivo oonsecutire figures,which, however, even at that, seems tobe far from the mark. Profeaaor Klinger, of the Hanuuin Commercial Schoolof this city, has gone to tho trouble ofmaking tho calculation, and finds thoamount thus : $2,008,785,409,721,770,-2 8 0,5 17,330,007,361,941,519.902,773,-447.38—or nearly, thrco times theamount given by the New York paper.It is supposed that the New York math-ematician discarded some of the deci-mals in tho beginning of his computa-tion, for it is evident that even the bil-lionth part of a cent must produce anenormous sum at compound interest during 1S70 years, if in that time a centwould produce an amount incom-prehensible by the human mind, andwhich tho mathematicians say wouldexceed the value ofse»en quadrillions ofglobes of pure gold, each of tbe >ize ofour earth, and rating the gold attwenty dollars anounoe!

The amount of a cent at s:mple inter-est for the same time, 1870 years, wouldbe but §1.12.

Long and Short DressesTko Now York Fost is admitting to

iU columns the opinions of lady corres^pondents in regard to long and shortdresses for street wear. As a generalthi^-g tbo absurdity of tho-long trains isadmitted, and their use rebelled against.while their advocates, if any exist, aresilent. Nevertheless, the prodigious ap-peodage* are making their appoarancaon tbe street and in tbe theatres andoonccrt rooms, and the Post relates aninstance occurring not long siuco wheroa lady in hor carriage, returning fromtho opora, completely enveloped her ea*cort in tho immense folds of her dfesg.A "Country Girl'1 writes asking thather city cousins do something desperaterather than ba trampled on by fashionand havo their dresses trampled on byman and beast; fight against tho newstyle, and Dever lay aside the short dres-8-s until thoy reach tho very "lastditch." "Mary" will not wear longdresses even if she has got large feet,and thinks that the comfort, conven-ience aud usefulness of short dresses willprevent their being given up without astruggle. l lA Brooklyn woman" inti-matts that it is distjracoful that Ameri-enii women, who abroad aro admitted tobe superior to foreign women in mostpoint*, should of their own frao will ac-kuowledge themselves inferior, and th: tou a point so dear to every woman'sheart as taste in dress. Why, at least,to such an extent as to 6acrifico a cus-tom so truly admirable aud convenient ?Suu therefore asks the country-womento pause and consider before they addan iola to tho length of their new springdresses.

And now comes in a bachelor, whocalls hmjsolf a "Celibate Philosopher,"with several suggestions which savOfmuch of doubt whether any woman willdo what she knows to be best, whenfnshion tells hei- to act otherwise. Hethinks that if one-half of them are sens-ible enough to adhere to tbe presentfashion, they will be no more odd andconspicuous than tho other Laif whos-.veep the street in flowing traiU. Thenhe putt; iu a clinching argument by sug-gesting- that short dresses are ii!;solut«lyessential to woman's rights, because if

h l f of them are not wise and braverenough to resist tLo despotism of thoavaricious aud silly of their own ses,they can never become great; ftateswo-rnen or throw off the yoke of the tyrantman.

Tho Wabash Republican publishes the'following letter from General Grant'sfather, which it says, is in answer to a'note written him by one of the citizensof that place, and which it is kindlypermitted to give to tho world. Thaletter bears the 6£r marks of GrantSenior and as a revelation of familyhistory it will be interesting, and cer-tainly its simplicity and frankness are-very commendable. If there has beenauy doubt heretofore in regard to thepolitical status of Geucral Grant thisictter will remove these doubts in a>manner just as clear as it is satisfactory.Mr. GraDt, J . K., says :

COVIXGTON, March 31, 1870,Bear Sir: I nover vofed the Demo-

cratic ticket in my life, The General,while in the army, professed neutralityund never gave but two votes in his life.While iu the army, about 1848, he votedfor a Whig for Congress from his native'district. l i e gave for his reason forvoting that tho Whig was a mattof the most brilliant order of tal-ent; the other of a lower order. The'Whig was elected. His second vote'was for James Buchanan, in 1856, froMpurely personal reasons. He has oftensaid since that any man who would vote1

for James Buchanan ought to be dis-franchised, and if the Government wouldnot disfranchise him be would do it him-self, and I believe he has never votedsinoe, unless he voted in 18G8. I be-lieve he was never a Democrat, but whilein Missouri, in the immediate vicinity ofthe "Dents," he may havo had somesympathy in that direction.

An Infernal Suggestion.In a certain large city thete wero two

pretty sisters who had married, one aneminent lawyer, tho other a distinguish'ed literary mau. Literary man dies, andleaves younger sister a widow. Someyears roll away, and the widow laysaside her weeds.

Now, then, it happens that a ccr-.niuauthor and critic has occasion, on abroiling day iu bummor, to call On theeminent lawyer, husband of the eldersister. Ho finds tho lawyer pleadingand sweltering iu a crowded court, seeshim suffering dreadfully from the heat,pities him, rejoices that he himself i., nota lawyer, and goes for a cool saunterunder the sheltering trees of a fashiona-ble park and garden.

Among the ice-eating, fanning crowdthore, he meets tho younger of our twosisters, and for a moment he thinks he isspeaking to the elder.

"Oh, Mr. ," auswered tho lady,"how dreadfully hot it is here I"

"Yes, Madame," replies our lucklesscritic, "it is hot here ; but I can assureyou the heat of this place isn't a circum-stance when compared with the heat ofthe place where your poor dour husbandis suffering today !"

A horror-stricken expression comesover tho facn of the lady ; she rise* fromhor chuir und flounces iudignautly away.

From the CfnefnnaU Commercial (Radical-)

t* Proposition I* Conrjnw Prejudice byIt has been supposed irM, the fifteenth

sraeiidineDt pot the cap-st^no, ns Mr.Sumner ,.ouKl say, tn the great fabricof !"-inan liberty^ and thnf OongreMwouid oonfino ha legislation to suchmeasures-A6 timo and experienco prorcdto be neoes'iry to secure to the coloredpeoplo of the United States all theircivil and political rights. I t was wiibthis understanding that sereral of theoldest anti-slavery societies dissolvedtheir organizations. Tlu-y felt that theirmission had baen accomplished, and thatthe negro must take his chance with therest of us, und trust to timo for a mod-ification ol prejudico agaiost race, oolorand previous conditiou. To the endthat we might get the negro out of pol-itics, and have leisure for the «tudjr auddiscission of other questions of thegreatest national import.-nice, wo havelabored to secure in the Gonsti'.ul ionBiich guarantees ns w^uld entitle thenegroes in law and in fact to all tlio priv-ilegos and immuniiics whioh attach toequality of political ami civil rights.

The great MasssicLusetts npostlo ofHuman liberty doea not regard the workas iiccomplished. All the old Aboli-tionists nny fold thtir hands and retireif they like, but the zealous Senator in-sists upon keeping the negro in the frontpolitioal rank. He hns dedicated hisenergies, his education, his eloquence tothe African, and now insists upon thepassage of a law by Congress which, iusubstarce, provides that the blacksshall uot be excluded from any hotel,from tho rooms or tables thereof, norfrom railroad cars, steamboats, theaters,schools, churches and juries,- that theyeball have, in all respects, the samerights and privileges as is now accordedby i:iw to the whito man.

We im-e to fay, touching this, thatthe great negro enthusiast will do wellnot to push this matter. Negroes arenot now excluded from railroad cars,steamboats, theaters or churches. Theyhave places assigned them in each, findif the accommodations aro as good asthose furnished to white people for thosome money, they ought not to complain,though they are in separata apartmentsand places. As for schools, where theStates provide for them separately, as isdone in many of them, and doubthsseoou will be in them all, the substantialend will havo been gained. Iu all thesethings there ave social as we'll as civilriglns to be considered. While a whiteman may be cheerfully willing to accordto one of another raco and color all therights of citizenship, he may, withoutjust cause of offense, select his own com-pany, and prefor not to mix indiscrimi-nately with negroes, even while conced-ing that they may be just as good, or agreat deal better than himself.

' Moreover we doubt whether Congresscan cons.'ivjtionally piss such a law asMr. Suniner proposes, giving the four-teenth and fifteenth anicles the broadestinterpretation. I t is for the States toregulate their donvstio matters. Con-gress can do no more, at least than pro-vide that the negruea shall havo the rightto travel ly public conveyance, lodgingin publio house8,Jadmission to churchesand theaters, eU:., but i: can not dictateby law what the r.ccommodation shallbe, or imperiously throw open all pub-lic doors for their egress and entrance.Any such law will be treated with tbocontempt it deserves, an<J will do moreto produce reaction of feeling to theprejudico of the negro and tho partythat makes such pretensions for him thanany measure that could be adopted.

Let tho negro alono ; let the whiteman j>lnr.e : let us havo less law makincrprivate The American peoplo are notunreasonable. If the. negroes developcapacity aud qualifications fitting themfor important trusts, and entitling themto social consideration, they will ulti-mately enjoy both ; but auy attempt toforce the popular will by making race>prejudice a penal dense, will not bene-fit tho negroes, or hasten the resultwhich Mr. Sumner is ambitious to real-ize. At least, let ua have a breathingspell after the great contest for the fif-teenth amendment.

The Late Bishop Kingsley—The .Wanner ofHis Deatli.

A letter just received from Dr. Ban-ister, the companion of the late BishopKiugsley, gives the following particu-lars of bis sudden death. Dr. JJanirter writes : Not the least complaint ofpoor health or bad feelings did I bearuntil about 9 o'clock in tho morning,April 6, Borne rheumatic pain, as heoalled it, then seized his left side. Hispain increased some and he laid himselfOB the bed. Soon he spoke of it as se-vere and as going to the aim and fingersends. I asked what I should do. Hesaid , 'nothing that he could think of.'I aeked if he had any relieving medicinefor such a case. He arose, unlockedhis satchel, took out a vial labeled 'PainKeliever,' applied it to his side andarm. He also poured a littlu in a glassand drank it off. lie was not alarmed,and I was not. I supposed it wouldpass away after a while. Soon I noticedhim perspiring, and he complained ofcold feet. I ordered hot water to bebrought in for him to bathe his feet —Perhaps his feet remained ten minutesin the water. He spoko of feeling re-lief, but, fhortly, in a low tone, ho Paidhe felt bad again. Adjusting his feet,as I supposed, to lie down again, I turn-ed from him a moment, and when I sawhim the next moment, he was staggeringand sinking to Lhe floor. 1 flew to raisehim. In consternation I called for help.Before it came his eyes opened, seemingglassy and strange, yet 1 hoped he wascoming out of a fainting fit merely, andthought nothing of his being dead. Weraised him on the bud ; he ganped beav-ijy ; still I E '.spected not tho cause.—The tlootor, who had been sent for, thenentered the room, examined his pulseand heart, aud,pronounced the inactionof both. He gasped onco more and wasgono. A post morttm examination show-ed that he died of heart disease." Theletter farther states that he was buriedki the ProUatant '•emetery at Beirut.

The Reduced Canal Tolls.In our commercial department will be

found a table giving the new rates o'tolls on the principal articles of Canalfreight, (is established for 1870, and alsoshowing the'ralfis ou the fame under theschedule of 18G9. It will be seen thatthe avorago reduction is about 50 percent. I t is stated that the good workthus inaugurated "will not stop untilthe New York trunk canals are compara-tively free, and their capacity sufficientto float vessels of 600 tons burthen."

The effect of this measure is shown bycomparing the average freight rates be-tween Chicago nnd New York duringthe month of Maj fora series of years.The Buffalo Commercial states that lastyear the average by lake and canal was19 7-10 cents per bushel ; in the prece-ding year the average was the same ; in18G7 the average of 17 7-10 cents wasthe lowest rate ever had; in 1866 therato was 26 1-10, the highest since1860; in 1865 it was i!2 cents: in 1864,26 3-10 cents; in 18C3, 23 3-10 cents;in 1S62..20 3-10 cents; and in 1861,21 cents." At the reduced rate of tolls,if the carrier is allowed the same average, over lolln, that he received lastyear, the aggregate cost of transportinga bushel of wheat from Chicago to NewYork, will bo 16 7-10 ceuts, or 3 oentslower thau last year. On a cargo r.f25,000 bushels :his difference amountsto the snug sum of 8750. Add to thatamount the difference in the elevatingrates at Buffalo, bctweeu this year undlast, and a snving has becu effected inthe cost of moving a cargo of the dimen-sions referred to, from Chicago to NewYork, of §1,000, equivalent to a profit ofno mean proportioi s.

Our Buffalo coteinpor ry makes a verytimely suggestion to all parties ennneeted with the transportation of produce,that on them, largely, uow rests the suc-cess of tho policy thus inauguratfd bythe authorities of that Siite. It hasbeen charged by tht< enemies of lowtolls that any reduction made by theState in the rates of tolls would be immediately taken advantage of, by increasing the f:tight charges. I t mattersnot to the shipper whether bis moneygoes to the State as tolls or to the boat-men as freight; the effect is oue and thesame to him. If carriers will bo mod-erate in their demands, the bulk of East-ward bound produce will reach the sea-board by Canal ns surely as water fiudsits level. The present year will togreat extent decide the future of ourgreat State works. The merit* of thetwo systems—rail and water—will bethoroughly tested. The advantago olspeed possessed by the former will bemore than counter-balanced by thecheapness of the latter.

If, in oo-operation with this move-ment, steps could now be taken for se-curing a system of through barges, fromour Western Canals to New York Citywithout breaking bulk, the question 0rail competition On heavy freights woulcsoon be decided. .But as . i t . .is. .uun\lnow being made on the water lines.—Toledo Gommerciid.

Vaatlei bill's Last Effort at Railroad Consoiidation.

In the World of May 0, a sketch wasgives of Commodore Vanderbilt's plansfor consolidating, under his general supel visiou and control, the New YorkContral, Lake Shore, Ivock Island, thNorthwestern and St. Paul Roads. Thifgrand project for controlling abou5,000 miles of railroad under one masterhead is to be effected on an amount 0capital so small that it will astouish tinpublic. The scheme is one which illustrates strikingly the power and value oa "master intellect."

The Now York Central Company isabout to lease the Lake Shore road aseven or e^ght per cent per annum forninety-nine yeuis, or a perpetual leaseBefore this is done, tho Lako Shorestock will be watered about twenty percent., thereby increasing the share capital to about $42,000,000, or perhapseven more. Harlem, which is ownciimostly by the Commodore, has beenearning about 20 per cent, per annumfor several years. The earnings for thecurrent year will be about tweuty-fourper cent, per annum, and when theMadison avenue line is running, theywill exoeed that. The earnings of Har-lem will therefore warrant an increaseof the capital stock equal to three hun-dred, and on this basis Harlem will beleased to tho New York Central Com-pany at eight per cent, per annum.

Similar arrangements will be madewith the Rock Island, Northwesternand St. Paul Koads. When these areejected Commodore Vanderbilt then, byholding only $23,060,000 of New YorkCentral stock, possesses the absolutelegal control of about five thousand milesof railroad, forming trunk lines fromNew York City to Chicago, Omaha andSt. Paul, thus forming a direct connection with the existing Pacific railroadsto San Francisco, and with the projectedNorthern Pacific Road to Puget'sSound.

l.UMiO.HD AID—KE-AIMll'.TIEXT VKDEUGO.We uro disappointed ia not being able

,o give our readers this week tlie Jeci.--on ia the Salem Railroad case, involv-ng, as is supposed, the constitutionality

of municipal aid to railroads. Insteadof announcing its decision on Fiidayast, the Supreme Court directed n rc-

argument lo be had on Tuesday next.May 24th, to which day it adjourned.Argument is specially requested uponthe following points, and of the main que^ -tion with reference to them :

1st. Did the proceedings which were hadcreate a contract, or auy relation or obligalion in the nature o( a contract, bct.veenthe township and the Railroad Company ?[f so, vvlim vnis its precise character? Ifuot, what Is the sucitlcground upon whichtlie Company is entitled to the mandamusprayed ?

2U. Could the Legislature, without thevote of the electors, compel the townshipto do what the act authorized It to do withreference to the issue of bonds and the levy-ng of taxes to pay them f or lias the town-

ship any original or Inherent power evertlie subject or question, except such as the

ature baa seen lit to allow it ?3d. When the minority of the tax-pay-

ers of the township are compelled by a vote>f the electors to pay the taxes in (jucstion,s it by any power existing in the township

as a separate organization or by the sover-eign legislative power of the State?

4th. Can the Legislature delegate to thetownship the power to determine for itself,as a local Legislature or administrativebody, by a majority of the electors, whatenterprises of a public nature arc so far ofa local benefit or advantage to the town-ship as to justify township aid, enteringinto contracts to secure such benefit and tofurnish such aid, uml the imposition of tax-es to meet the obligations thus incurred?

5th. If bonds arc issued by the town-ship and given to the Company to encour-age the building of ft road which in theopinion of a majority would not be other-

M constructed, aud no arrangement ismade binding the Company to repay thebonds or money or any part of them, is thisto be treated as a donation, or as a consid-eration which the township Is allowed to

ive i'or the benefits which in the opinionof the majority Will fully compensate themlor the outlay '>.

6th. Is there any proper rule of apor-jntnont of taxes provided for by the act,

and what Is the rule? Is the whole rail-road, or only that portion of it within thetownship, to be taken as the object forwhich the tax is voted?

7th. Do sections 8 and 9 of Article XIV.of the Constitution prohibit the Legiihi-ture from granting aid to railroads as pro-vided by t he Act ? How docs this prohi-bition differ In this respect from those inthe Federal Constitution upon the Statesin respect to laws impairing the obligationof contracts, against entering into treatieskeeping troops and ships of war in time o:peace. So., or from the prohibition iu ouiown Constitution against the invasion oreligious liberty ?

8th. What is the extent of the term " internal improvements," in section 9, ArticleXIV. of our State Constitution '{

Tlie imporianco of the question callsfor the most careful and lull investigation, and this the Court is evidently determined to give, despite the clamor ioan immediate decision. I t is probablethat the decision will promptly follow are-argument.

We shall not " steal the thunder " othe distinguished lawyers engaged in thcase, nor get up a sensation article wittho view of influencing tlie Court, buwill bide our time with patience.

— Tho case was argued on the firs

the Detroit aud Howell Railroad Company, which prays the issue of a mandamus to compel the officers of tho towof Salem to deliver certain bonds claimeito havo been voted in aid of its roadand by Hon. H. J . BlUKSS, of this cityaud Hon. G. V. N. LOTIIROP, of Detroitfor the township officers and against tbissuing of the mandamus. It is supposethat the Court will ignore mere techncall ties aud decide tlio Constitutionaquestions involved—the right of a township or city to aid railroad corporationeither by donation or loan. The matter is so important that the Court wilbe justified in so doing, even though imight evade the Constitutional points indeciding the ense.

TUB Supreme Court decision repo/tebelow has both a local and general interest, and will do much towards checking the frauds being perpetrated by socalled patent right dealers, who Eelworthless patents to unsophisticatecfarmers with a speculative turn of mindtaking notes with certain liberal conditions attached, and then detaching tinconditions under which the note mighnever become payable, and immediatelyselling to a third party:

Orrin A. Wait vs. Norman G. Pomeroy.Error to Washtenaw Circuit. Opinion byCAMI'BELI., C. J.

Tha only question raised in this case waswhether the destruction of a memorandumwritten under a promossory note and qualifyincr it vitiates the note in the hands of abonn fule holder having no knowledge othe: alteration.

lidd: That the note and memorandumconstituted J>ut one contract and were inlaw a single instrument. There are somecases which have held particular memoran-da immaterial. But no case has been fonndwhich holds that if material it can be dis-regarded. The eases were fully examinedby the court and shown to sustain theirviews. It'the memorandum formed a partof the original contract, it was a materialalteration to detach it and leave the noteas though it had been absolute. And it isa principle well settled that such an altera-tion voids the entire obligation. A bonafide holder is allowed to receive the genu-ine contract discharged of any equities at-taching to the contract itself, as betweenthe original parties, but he cannot get acontract where none was made.

Judgment affirmed.

M R S . MCPAKLAND-RICHARDSON having

published a defense, in which shs datesher ill-treatment and abuse by her hus-band almost back to the time of hermarriage, MCFAULAND retorts by givingto the press her letters running throughall those years down even to 1866, inwhich he is addressed always in themost affectionate terms.

It is now said the Ways and Means Com-mittee favor retaining the 5 per cent, in-come tax, but will increase the exemptionto $1,500 or $2,000. This is not what thepeople want, but it is better than nothing.—Detroit Tribune.

Not being "what the people want" isthe more reason that it is likely to bowhat they will get. Congress is lookingnot after the interests of tho people, butafter the interests of party, and rings,and treasury leeches, and dependents,and hangers on, not forgetting tho man-ufacturers. Hence the income tax is tobe perpetuated, the tariff is not to berevised and improved, and political re-construction is to be kept an open ques-tion, forever. "What the people want"they will never get until they rise in theirmight and eject the corrupt and gorgedbarnacles from office.

THE Senate, on the 12th, passed thearmy bill, reducing the troops in serviceto 30,000, say after July 1st, 1871, nndmaking other material amendments. Amost important amendment, offered byMr. TRUMBULL, prohibiting any officer oneither tho active or rotired list fromjolding any oivil office, was adoptedafter a hard fight, by a vote of 34 to 21.If the bill shall go through the House,SICKLES will have to come home fromSpain or resign his commission—pity

couldn't do both, and BADKAU, POR-

TER, DENT, el al., leave the White Houseor tako off their epaulettes.

THIS is this way the soldiers in theFr#rjch nrmy are to be served for votingagainst the plebiscitum : "An oppositionvote puts a black mark against his name,stops promotion, and is surely followedby punishment." Anclh«r evidence lhatZACK CHANDLER exposed to LOUIB NA-

POLEON how the "soldier vote" was ma-nipulated in 1864. We don't yet read,however, that the French Governmentwent as far as did our Government,—arrest and imprison officers who, actingur.der tho appointment of their State re-ceived Democratic votes. Wo aro yotone ahead of these plthi$cilurn fellows.—Th<lj must take another lesson.

IN the Judiciary election in NewYork, on Tu«sday, the Democracyswept tho State, the majority beingolaimed as high as 70,000. The samewas the result iu the New York Cityelection.

— The Kadicftls—of course—acoountfor their defeat by charging fraud ofthe grossest kind upon tho DemocracyAs

"No, rojjue'er tolt the halter draw,With good opinion of the law,"

These honest Radicals don't think itpossible that Providence would permitthem to bo honestly beaten.

IN THE House, on Monday, tho ruieswere suspended to allow Mr. BINUHAM

to report a. bill for the enforcement ofthe XVth amendment, and despito therequest for tune for discussion, it waspassed by a vote of 131 to 41. Puttingbills through in that way is an outragoupon the rights of tho minority, aud dis-graceful to a legislative body.

— If tho bill is of the same characteras one discussed the same day in theSenate, it will furnish a capital modelfor Louis NAPOLEON when he has an-other plehiscilum to submit, or for theCzar of all the Ilussias.

AT A recent Woman's Suffrage Con-vention, in Near York, a Mrs. HAZLITT,

of Michigan, was one of the bright andshining lights, and is credited with thebrilliant and profound declaration that"but few wives married their husbandsbecauso they loved them." Now, who isMrs. HAZLITT, aud is her "poor, dearhusband' unfortunate enough to be un-loved ? We wait an answer in breath-less suspense.

From the Bulletin.The Boston Wool Market.

Iu the wool market there has been moreBusiness doing For the past neck, than loralongjtime past. The transactions haveueen quite large in the Aggregate, but com-prise many odd lots, which deulen wettanxious to close out, and a very large pro-portion of pulled wool. Domestic fleecesof tUe medium and extra grades has beennearly all picked up, and but very few de-sirabie lots now remain 011 tUe market.

Buyers and sellers seem to have come toan understanding, as to the necessity ofhaving a (ftear Held for tlie reception of tin-new clip. In this respect, as well as In thematter of winding up the campaign at alow ranee of prices, their interests areunited, and tliey are not slow to recognizethe lact. Besides, manufacturer.-! just nownued a good stock of old wool to bridgeover, so that they shall not be compelled toenter upon the consumption o!' the new clipat once, In its raw and unseasoned condi-tion. Hence, with prices made to suit theexigencies of the occasion, buyers havelately oun\o in and supplied themselves lib-erally, and at the same time have put deal-ers in a condition to take hold of the newclip by releasing their business eapltal.The former have not nm any risk by so do-ing, siuec wool has been bought aud sold,during the last week or ten days, at priceswhich can hardly fail to yield the manufac-turer a lair profit on his products, even, atthe current low rates at which woolen goodsare selling. The new clip will have toopen at very low rates, Jn order to Insureany margin whatever to buyers and ship-pers, ami enable it to pass readily into con-sumption. That it will thus open, and thatthere will be less competition than usualbetween Eastern agents nnct country ope-rators, stems to be a foregone conclusion.The clip, moreover, Is likely to be largerthan last year, and! there remains an openand unsettled question iu regard to thenatter of reducing the tariff. A fevv scatering lots o-f new wool ai'e being received,

mostly taken from sheep'fatted for summerslaughter. Spring clip California wool iscoming forward, nnd is in much- better con-lltlon than the crop of last year. Sa!«« oflomestic for the week have been large andbot up about 1,075,000 lbs at a range of

MEETING OF PUBI.ISUEUS AND—A call has been issued for a meeting ofthe publishers, editors and printers of theSaginaw Valley and vicinity, for the pur-pose of forming an Association to promotethe interests of the fraternity. The meet-ing will be held at the Bancroft House, attwo o'clock, on the 9th of June next. Ageneral attendance of all interested Is de-sired.—Haginawian.

Not having seen the "cal l" referred toIn the above Item, we do not know but thatit assigns good and sufficient reasons forthe move. But as at present advised, itseems to us that the craft in the SaginawValley would do better to be present Mtmasse at the meeting of the State Publish-er's Association at Kalamazoo, •c'ri the 14thof June, curoll themselves on its list ofmembers, and aid in making it the power itmay and should be. Two Associations canhardly be supported in the State, one maybe made thriving and prosperous and com-mand a more general respect for the frater-nity. We hope that at the meeting on the9th this view will be taken into considera-tion, &nfi that the Publishers and Editorsthere present, and of the whole Valley, willresolve to be at Kalamazoo on the 14th ofJune.

We find the following buBiuess-likocard in a late number of the Detroit Tribunt:

With a change of names it would be ap-plicable to this city.

Mayor HARRLVAN requests us to callthe attention of our citizens to the neces-sity ol thoroughly cleaning up streets,lanes and alleys. This is de.sira.blfi bothbecause warm weather is upon us, aud thehealth of our citizens will be promoted bybating all nuisances, and that we may have)ii our best rig in which to welcome tlic uuicrous summer visitors sur,e to come, cs-

about Coinmeuceuient time.

The last number of the ChroRicle gives& somewhat detailed statement of tlie re-ceipts and expenses on account of the lateteurse of lectures before the Students' Lec-ture Association. Condensing the facts,we may state the gross receipts at $3,201,-85; expenses, $3,078,11; net profits $128,74-A.N.VA DICKINSON was the "trump card" and<!reiv the fullest house with the largest rc-ctlpts, but the most money was made onMrs. E.

«he being satisfied wiik a smaller per cent.«f the receipts. The two compare, in ordernamed; receipts, $373,31, $317.25; expen8es, $272.50, $149.10. Of the other lectur-ers, T u n netted the Association, $37;TmoR, $57.50; Maj. POWEI,L, $30.70;KATE FIELD, $48 25 ; OOLLTKR, $13.50 and

the Quintette Club, two performances,$70.40. The Association lost: on Prof.SKBI.YE, 1189.45; OH Jnetin MCCARTHY,

•81.50; and on PrjKsnoN—becaaee of theHtra heavy expenses—$59.95. These fls-«res show the course not a very profitable<me, aud indicate that next year's lecturers•mist moderate their demands. I t is fairto say, however, that the members cf theAssociation, some 000 in number, were onthe half-price Uet.

Hardly a week passes in ftliieh some•citizen or stranger does not visit our officelolook through a Jackson, Adrian, GrandRapids, Saginaw, Coldwater or KalamazooPaper, with the object of finding the card«f seme physician, attorney, justice of theWee, banker or hotel, etc., with whom a•uslness correspondence is wanted. Nowlf»ny one at either of the places namedshould rater a newspaper office and cullfor the An-STO they would conclude thatAmi Arbor had little law or justice, withBaO banker or hotel, ami that it was^ i b l ealthy place. The cards of very

rofessional men ate to be touud'« owcol-nmns, and they lose the business*nd our city the reputation they should aid"Hiving it in consequence. A word to the•hrewd—ought to be enough.

Tho Committee appointed by theCommon Council to consider the petition*!king that the saloons in this city be clos** °n Sunday—as they should be—canvassec•llccity last week—011 Thursday and Fri*y—and a large number of the salooi^Wr signed a pledge to close thei

s of business as desired by the petition^ e are advised that every saloon

d Wy aoon in

ird Ward was accordingly closed onunday last, but that such was not thtathe other Wards. And we alst said that some of the signers of th

v wlgc to close kept open nearly all th°5f and evening and exhausted thel

*ocks. It seems to us that these salooi««l>ers ought to be satisfied with vlolatin;l « btate | a w s six days in the week.

What a .Ilkliigan OratrcssSays.The Cleveland Leader says :Mrs. Adela Huzlelt, of Michigan, is in

a fair way, if she keeps on, lo got intodifficulties. At tlie receut Suffrage Con-ention in New York elie brought alllearts to a momentary Bteod-StUl byvowing that "husbands would be thun-

der-struck if they new how few of theirwives married them through genuine af-cction." Hero then is richness. Has

the world lived so many centuries iu Uie'aith that the lovo of a woman was thesurest and loveliest thiug that we have»ny knowledge of, only to be told atast from a woman suffrage platform that

the dear creatures have only been slum-ming all this loveliores, and that theyare mercenary, ambitious and stony-hearted like the rest of us ? Atter all,however, we niU3t thank MTB. Hazlett.There is nothing like knowing preciselywhere we stand in this matter. Thoughshe confided this startling piece of infor-mation not in the spirit of a sweet, sister-ly philosopher, but rather as a decisiveblow at the vanity of confiding husbands,it is all the same. Tbe fact is tho mainthing, no matter how we are enabled toreach it. We Bhall await with someinterest tho end of this controversy.Thus far, no ODO has had the hardihoodto contradict tho gentle sister fromMichigan. It remains for tho ladies toimpeach her testimony. For tho risinggeneration of prospective husbands tbedebate will have a Dear, not to say per-sonal interest. The defense now Las thofloor.

Bonn PlaU's jlotes OH John CnvodeJohn COVIMIO is one of tho stock

of the lower body of tho National Leg-iakture, as- Drake is of tbo Sonate.Covode resembles an army mule in hiscarriage, bray, propensity to pull in thearmy team, and occasionally to kick upBis heels for recreation. He is cunning,without pride or concern for persnuuldignity or honor, rich by siratcgetio ap-proaelio?, acd politics is as much a busi-ness with liini as broe'dmg stock or keep-ing shop. He has no abstract idea ofpower, or fame, or anything whioh im-;igi",:itivc 1 eople suppose would be aptto maJJe a man wish to sit in tha Con-gress of the United States ; for ho be-longs to a ruibdo'.vn commonwealth•where iho highest ideal of the nation isthat it is a sort of Indian'* stew pot,whore all the States eit round fishingout Benofits and savory morsels withtheir fingers, and John Covode grew updirty and coarse on purpose to qualifyhim^olf for this.£onera.l grab. He can£iii bis arm down lower, hook out morefnt and unctuous pieces, and digest themupon a more omnivorous and cast ironstomach than Spotted Tail, or Hole-in-the-Day, or auy other well-bred savagefamiliarly known to the Indian asentsiu the lower story of the Patent OfficeBuilding. When you oome to- states-manship as a fine art, Covodo's proposi-tion is that it consist?, in a personalsense, of putting as little into the pot aspossible, making the DUmorator smalland tho donominatof almighty. l iewould have thrown iu, had be been one©f Mr. Maobcth's witches, the smallestmite of "blaspheming Jew" and hookedout the whole "maw and gulp" of theshark. He holds his seat in tho pres-ent Conqress by tho tenure of partisaninjustice, having been beaten in themost manifest, manner by Mr. Henry J .i^uster, but given tho scat by a partisancommittee ; and yet this grotesque oldrasoal quotes rare scripture and assumesat times more honesty thau the incor-ruptible Stantou. He rominds me ofArtemns Ward's saying of a certain mantilnt "he had but one tooth, and yet thisgifted being plays on the bass drum."

Raising and Storing Cabbages.Last year tho writer succeoded in

reismg cabbages of a size and perfection(surpassing those erf a series of years pre-vious. Tho method adopted is aa fol-lows : As early in the spring ss theitato of the ground would alljw, thoplat designed for cabbage was plowed,and sowed with ruta baga turnip seed.These came up, and by the time the eea-6on for transplanting cabbages camearouDd, covered tho ground with a densegrowth of vegetation. This was thenepaded umJorr-and holes were dug forreceiving the plants. Into these holesmanure was thrown find also into each aruta baga that by chance had remainedover noosed in the cellar, and for whichthere secsied to be. at that late period,no other use. Although the soil waslight aud not well suited to eabbagee,theresuH was that the plants grew fine-ly and formed dense close heads in thefall, of a size as large as could be de-sired. The unusual growth of tho cab-bages isattiibuted to the decay aud de-composition of the vegetable matter of-the turnips, which being of a like naturewith the f'crmer, afforded to them justthe material needed to make them thrive.

Having succeeded in raising fine cab-bages, the question arose how to pre-serve them through the winter in a cel-lar so dry that all previous attempts hadfailed, a few weuks having sufficed toshrink aud render worthless all thatwere stored in it. As an experiment,some long, narrow boxes were placed intbe cellar, and iu these the cabbages astaken from the ground were fet, aud soilfrom the ground were set, and soil fromthe garden was then placed about thoirroots, upon which water was afterwardsprinkled. The experiment had provedft success; after a period of threemonths siuce they were stored, somo maybe seen nearly aa green and fresh aswhen taken from the grouud.

•A. neighbor has succeeded iu keepinghis cabbages as well, by digging a trenchin the bottom of his cellar, iuto whichthe cabbages uero put, and the earthsprinkled about their roots.— Wathing-Un Star,

To JIake Screws Hold.Where screws are driven into soft

wood, subjected to a considerable strain,they are very likely to work loose ; aidmany limes it is very difficult to makethem hold. In such eases we have al-ways found the use of glue profitable.—Preparo Iko glue tluok; immerso a stick-about half the size of tho screw, andput it into the hole; then immerse thescrew, and drive it home as quickly aspossible. When there is some articleof furniture to bo repaired, and no glueis to bo had handily, insert the stick,then fill the rest of the cavity with pul-verized rosin, then heat the ecrew suf-ficient to melt the rosin as it i? drivenrn. Chairs, tables, lounges, etc., arecontinu-lly getting out of order in eve-ry house; and the time to repair thebreak is wbra first noticed. If neglect-ed, the matter grows still worse, and fi-nally resulls in tho laying by of tho fur-niture as worthless. Where screws aredriven into wood for temporary purpos-es they can be removed much easier bydipping them in oil before inserting •—"When buying screws, notico what youare getting ; for there aro poor aa wellas good kinds. See that Iho heads arecouud and well cut ; that there aro noflaws in the body or thread part, andthat they have good gimlet points. Ascrew of one make will drive into oakas easy as btilers into pine, and endurehaving twioo the forco brought ngainstil.— Ohio farmer.
