Across (lie Walnuts and the Mine."In after-dinner talk

Across t.'ie waluatBtnd the win©."—Tnitytm.

'•Wiii tilt re be any children, I won-ler, amongst us a generation or two

hence ? ' sighed Housewife the otherlight, upon the occasion of bis lastuvenile party for tho season ; and really,.vhen I looked about me, I could searcc-y 1'ecl astonished at his inquiry. The

room, indeed, was fulj of children in onesense, but in another there was not achild to be soeu. I t was an assemblageof little iceo and women. The dancingwas as s'ately as a minr.et; and eachduodecimo dame had a card io which toset down her engagements. I heard oneof them refuse a most gallant cavalier(in puco velvet and lace) her hand forthe Lancers. up;n tLegro;und that it hadbeen previously promised to (mother;and yet she did not d;ince that set.

"And why," said I, "my little lady,did you not dance with that gentleman ?1 BID suie he looked very good-natured."

"Good uature.d ?—yes," returned she,shrugging her small shouldeis; ' 'but howunfortunately plaiu !"

Thisyojng person was alout tightyears old.

Mrs. Housewife had empowered meto act ns one of the masters of the cere-monies,—she termed it "helping her tokeep ordtr"; but anj post of th,;it kindwould have been a perfect sinecuro"Romping : WHS as littlo likely to takeplace among these dccorou3 Liliputian'i,as scalping or tho actual cautery. Tholeast approach to it was regarded withineffiib.'o disdain. Even awkwardnesswas visited wi:h fctie ytmost severity ofremark by these small ladies.

'Tie h-iugs upon one so,1' was llie ver-dict pasFed on one young beau, who hudjust taken to "stickups," .and^Jbked likea clergyman in miniature.

Another was rejected by a sweet littlemaiden of eleven; upon the ground thathe had danced with her twice already.

"And are you so inconstant as alla t ? " ir quired I, deferentially."No," eaid ehe, frankly ; "1 like him

as well as any in the room. l?ut I dou'tlike being laughed at; and peoplo dolaugh if one dances more thau twicewith the same person."

She was actually afraid of "beingtalked about! "

I overheard twojittle female dots ofsix or seven making conversation. Theyhad got very friendly, and one expressedher hopo that they should see more ofone another. "My sister yonder" (point-ing to a damsel cf eleven) "is at homeevery Wednesday from three to seren.We should be so glad to see you."

Ins'.ead of tho indiscriminate rushwhich used to follow tho announcementof supper when we were young, thesedignified juveniles went down in couples,and talked thc same twaddle on the stairswhich their seniors use—inquiring se-dately of one another whether they hndbeen lately to the theater, or were go-ing out of town, At the repast itself,it was thought vulgar to admire : as forbursting into applause at the sight ofany gorg&DDa dainty, as youth was sure-ly wont to do,— to have given way tosuch an impulse would have been con-sidered barbaric On the other hand,depreciatory criticism was as freely ex-changed as among the most fashionablegrown-up society. I rofessor Puzzle-ton's son aud heir, aged seven, happenedto be my neighbor. Ho was prosecu-ting his attentions to a little goldco-haired fairy on the other side of him ina most characteristic manner. Havinginherited the faculty of analytical inves-tigation from his pareuF, he was takingthc gilt off the conjurer's tricks whichhad just been performed up st:iirs, andpreaching to his beloved object uponthe text of the hollowness of things ingeneral. Presently he took up a high-ly ornamented cracker, nnd in a louand distinct voice—the very echo of hisfather's lccturc-rocm tune—observed,

Thesa crackers were made at home."

I saw the color come into Mrs. Housewife's face when, on finding it did notexplode, hc added : "Ah, I thought so."

Another young gentleman of somewhatless tender ago, who, it seemed to me,had hud quite ns much champagne asv. as good for him, was ceaseless in hisimportunities for pert.

"Port wine, 1 say !' '—"Port wine,will you ':" were tho observations he ad-dressed to every waiter, with incrensingirritation.

Now, in his ignorance of the tastes ofthe rising generation, their host hadprovided no port wine, and t l e indigha-tion of his very respectable butler at itsbeing demanded in this public mannerwas n charming spectacle. I saw himgrowing redder and redder with eachreiteration of the roquest, which henevertheless affected to ignore. Wlunthe ladies retired from the tnb'o, someof thc little gentlemen remained to dis-cuss matters of general intarest, withtheir little legs as wide apart as theywould go, and ihoir little thumbs in thenm-holcs of their waistc ats, ond amongothers was my bacchanalian friend, asimportunate as ever. "They have gotno port at this house; think of that!"hc cried.

Then Housewife, wishing to discover

ing port, as well perhaps as to removethis stigma from his character for hos-pitality, caused a bottlo of tho desiredliquor to bo brought.

"Now, why were you so anxious forthat wiue, my young friend ?" iuquiiedhe.

"Well, you see, I'vo had a deal ofdancing ; and though your 'Fizz' " (bywhich he meant champagne) "is wellenough, there's nothing like port wine topick a fellow up."

From subsequent inquiries, I discov-ered that this gentleman had but justarrived at his teens ; ho had seen, as thenovelists say, only thirteen summers !

Surely Housewife's remark upon theprobable extinction of tho genus mfansofficinulis—the common child as it needto be—was not without good grounds.

l a m bound to add, however, that therising generation are as sharp as needles ;perhaps tht-ir brain, forced into iimna-tuie nciivity, will soften at the periodwhen it was wont to become well season-ed aud mature; but at pieseut their in-tellgence is acuto. Dunrg the courseof that evenii'g, Professor Puzsdoton en-tertained us with one of the very bestconundrums that I ever heard in mylife It was one of that complicatedkind it is true, which excited the wrathof Sidney Smith, who deemed that a manshould bo hurried to execution withoutbeing permitted to explain tho relationof his "third'' to his "fourth ; " but it-was excellent for all that.

"In invfir-t Sjueorod sal :My third and lonrtta I ate."

Tho answer to which it like Columbus"segg problem, very easy when we havulearned what it is.

Insatiate.Our juveniles opplauded is exceeding-

ly, and quite appieciatod it; but whatwas still more curious, when the Pro-fessor added as a pendant to the above,

"UnA:r my first my second stood—I thiuk you'll own'thia (juito as good,"

there was quite a roar of juvenile voices,that had all guessed right.

Lot us hopo my grown-up roadershave been equally sagacious.

Tlie .Heeling of thc Authors.Mr. C , a gentleman who had just

publihed his first attempt at authorship,which met with remarkable susoc-'s, wi:3shortly after met by a seedy-looking in-dividual in the Queen's Hotel, Toronto.The latter extended his bund, and in atras^iu manner, exclaimed, "Allow me,sir, to welcome you to our ranks—thenoble ranks of i.uthorship."

Woman Movement.

BY A. D. MAYO,

A good many masculine philosophersnow-a-days declare that the world is pas-sing into a materialistic age, in whichGod will disappear, and the only relig-ion will bo the worship of a material mi-turo or a gleyified self. The world isadvancing in the knowledge aud con-quest of physical nature mere rapidlythan ever Defers ; but this is tho leastitem of its progress. The great charac-teristic of our day is the coming for-ward of woman to her rightful ond fiualiufluenco in huinaa affairs; aod thismeans the coming reign of truth and

I beauty aud love iu the world. The rea-son woman is thus advancing to herrightful place is, that the Christian re-

changc my carriago dress for a dinnerdress, and go out to dine, aud then Iusually attend one or moro parties du-ring the evening." Invitations areshowered upon these ladies to such anextent that it becomes necessary to reg-ister them and to ajipend to eaeh entrythe reply eeDt, whether an acceptance orregret. To trust one's memory for thekeeping of engagements would bo sim-ply impossible.

Mr. C collapsed.

brought civilization to a point where ma-teiiul force aud selfishness, and mero in-tellect, and will, can no longer do thework of the world. This age is thomost religious of all tho ages, and be-cause it is &o, woman is coming forwaidmore distinctly in human affairs.

I don't attempt to predict the meth-ods by which woman will fulfil her newobligation in the years to come. I don'tknow precisely what new things womanwill be oalled to do iu our Republic, orjust how she will do old things in newway?. I dou't believe any man. or allinoii, can tell her how to do her work, crjust what that work shall be. I don'tbelieve any special class of women ; thefashionable women, tho literary women,ihe domestic women, the married wom-en, the unmarried women, tho Women'sRights women know n great deal moreabout it than I do. But tho best wom-en in our country, and in all countries,now have a feeling that, in God's provi-dence, they are being culled to guideand bless the world as never before.—God will show tho women of this coun-try what He wishes them to do, and howto do it; will show them iu proportionas they live up to the highest woman-hood they can now comprehend. Itisn't necessary that any association ofsmart women should ecold Americanmen from the Atlantic to the Pacific,from thc Lakes to tho Gulf. Tho wis-est aud best men in America ara readyto welcomo American womanhood toany new position it really desires to as-sume and feels competent to fill. Wearo only waiting to know what tho bestwomen in American society want to do,aud wo shall not find out by being calledtyrants aud other unpleasant namesfrom tho public platform. We desireand expect to enter our New Jerusalemt'.irou^h tlii.s gate of pearl; but wewish to be sure we are entering theNow Jerusalem, and tlw gate ii onegenuine pearl; fur tnt*i has suffered agood deal in the past by following the

orders of women throu^i: gales ofshilling brii'S into cities of death. Wo-man can lead msn down to tho lowest

g pp p! hands in horror at the degeneracy of: tho ago. The youth of the UnitedStates go to perdition more frequentlyfrom neglect at homo, than from anyother cause. The mecbanio thinks hehas not time to look after tho habits ofhis children. He feeds them, clothes

! them, and sends them to school, and to1 thc Sunday school. Perhaps ho occa-sionally drops a word of reproof or ad-vice, in which he is joined by his wife,and they call that home training.

But what should bo douo ? Wo ven-ture to assert that if half tho parents inthe United States would give their at-tention, for the next ten years, to homeamusements for the childn n, amusementswhich should involve healthful, rationalenjoyment, the coming geneiation wouldbe stronger men ard womeu than thoseof any preceding generation. As apeople we know comparatively little ofthe philosophy of amusements. Parentsdiscuss politics and fashion, scandal andcrime, during their leisure moments athome, while the children sit by, longingfcr something to amuao them, somethingto make time pass more pleasantly andrrpidly. Tho latter are sent away todevise their own sport?, while futhersand mothers devote themselves to socialengagements, or personal ease. After atime tho boys find their amusementsaway from home, perhaps iu places ofquestionable repute ; and the girls sud-uei:ly assume the a:rs of young ladies,and devote themselves to late hours,receptions, senseless small talk, aud tobeaus noted moro for tbeir fascinatingmanners thau their good morals. Somatters go on quietly, until society isstartled by the announcement of unex-pected crime or awful ciisgraoe. Suchdramas are being enacted every week ofthe year. Would not parents bo repaidby devoting more timo to the amuse-ments of homo and less to business andsocial pleasure ?

Why Whltti«r Sever Harried.It seems strarge that a nature so go-

nial, so tender and true as that of JohnG. Whittier should go through life un-mated; and hence the inquiry cfteoarises among his admirers, "Why Whit-tier never married ?"

The answer is not dt finitely knownHe gives, as a reason, that the attach-ment between himself and his motherwas uncommon, and as she was an inva-lid, he hesitated about briuging a wifehome, least it might make trouble forher, although he had seen many ladiesho admired.

Among his early acquaintances was aMiss Mury Smith, of Kentucky, after-wards Mrs. Thomas. It is not knownlow far tho acquaintance progressed butirobably to no great length. His eldestistcr was much opposed to the intima-3y, and, as he expressed himself, 'Sheook it out of me.' He wrote a poemibout that time, entitled ''Memories,"which tells its own story. He met withMrs. Thomas since the war. Her threesons had been in the rebel army, andsho was very strong iu her Southern feelngs ; hence they have but littlo iu com-

mon.Then thero was a Mrs. Elizabeth

Lloyd Howell, of Philadelphia, to whombefore ho beoame famous, hc offered himself, and was rejected. Sho made her-self quite well known by writing a po-em entitled "Milton on hia Blindness.''This production was so finely writtenthat it was immediately seized upen byEtigiish critics, as one of Milton's un-discovered poems, and was incorporatedin tho Oxford edition of his works, whenit becamo knoMii that an American la-dy was its author. Mrs. Howard is nowa widow, and, it is said, feels quite fa-vorably disposed toward Whittier, butho is human, and remembers that sheonce rejected him. She was very beau-tiful—ueither a blonde nor brunette,but that tint between which is some-times so charming.

Ladles in Ivashin^ton.A lady correspondent of tl e Spring

The ladies whose houses arc open onWednesday are not privileged to over-look those who call on them, and conse-quently their labors are almost unremit-ting. Said one of these to mo not longago, "I order the carriage fcr twelveo'clock every day, no matter what theweather may be, and beg^n ma kingcalls. That hour is a littlo early to ox-pect pcrnens to bo ready to see me, stillI am obliged to go then, and I go on ur- j a "til it is so late that I am almost asham-1 °ed to go to any one's hou«e, and yet Icanuot get through my list."

Prom the Chicago Post.An Outsider's Views of Michigan.

We doubt « bother any portion of theNorthwest is at this timo "marching on:

in full force more magnificently than theState of Michigan. And by this wemean that the 1'eninsular State is notonly rapidly developing its natural re-sources and augmenting its materialwealth, but that its people are devotinguo less attention to moral and intellec-tual advancement than to interests moreof the earth earthy. The State Univer-sity of Michigan is celebrated througliout tho couutry, und, indeed, throughoutChristendom, as a fountain of sciencenid classical learning, and as an institu-tion also tot exclusively devoted to theexamination of foseiliferons rocks ofages which it would tire the wings oftlie strongest imagination to fly to.Theie aro several other institutions ofluaruing of high merit and extensive re-pute. If the State may almost be saidto be pre-eminent as respects its insti-tutions of classical and scientific learn-ing, it is not surpassed iu respeot to itsextensive and efficient system of populareducation, whose advantages about threehuodred thousand children annually en-joy. The charitable aud penal institu-tions of the State aro scarcely less cele-brated than its University.

The growth of Michigan IIJS beensingular. The population, according tothe different enumerations of the peopleby the United States is shown by thefollowing table :1810 4,7021820.,...lv-:ii 31,039

212,267897,654

1S00 749,113The population will be, according to

the census of tho present year, it is pre-sumed, iu excess of one million souls.Tha ratio of increase for the twentyyears from 1S'2O to 1840 was greaterthau that of any other State. From1830 IO 1840 it WHS five hund*ed andseventy per cent. Afterward, as com-pared with other Northwestern States,the growth was less rapid. And thiswas altogether natural. The position cfMichigan as to the lakes gave the Statepeculiar advantages before the railwayera. That vary position became isolatedas to railways upon the inauguration ofthe new era. The great through linosof that immense railway system of whichChicago is the geographical aud commer-cial center, passed by Michigan, so toany, or those of tbe'ui which eutered theState had their routes near the southernlimit. The result was, of course, \heemptyiug out of commerce and immigra-tion into Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Wis-consin and other States more ihuu intoMiohigao, whoso growth, neverthelesscontinued, steady and healthy. An'dnow that it has a railway system of its-own, penetrating most parts of the State,connecting it with the extensive systemreferred to, it i< in tho midst of ao eraof remarkable progress.

There are at this timo about fifteenhundred miles of railway in operationin Michigan, and about one thousandmoro in process of construction. TheUpper Peninsula is not so well adaptedto agriculture as the main body of theState, but the former is exceedingly richin mineral deposi's, and is likely to be-come in rtspect to wealth gathered there-from, the mest valuablo portion of ourrepublic. The capital invested in thecopper mines of Michigan alone is notless than sixty million dollars, par valueof stocks; perhaps it is more. Theyield of iron ore was G57.000 tons,worth $5,290,315, or an increase of near-ly 100 per cent, over the yield of 1868.The capital invested in the GranlRaj ids gypsum beds is, wo believe,8400 00(7. Yet last year's product was277,350 tons, worth more than a milliondol'arn. Tho lumber trade of last yearembraced -1,000,000 feet in excess ofthat of the year btfere, and is set downin dollars at thirty-four millions. Thesalt deposits aro of great value, butworks for the production of this primearticle of commerce are yet in their in-fancy. The Saginaw Valley Salt Workslast year produced about two millionbushels, and considerable quantitieswere elsewhere manufactured.

in addition to the great riches of thoforests and mineral deposits of Michi-gan, there is a mint of wealth in the"peaoh regiou" of the Stato. This is abelt of from six to twelve miles wide alongthe eastern thoro of Lake Michigan, notall of which, by any means, is yet incultivation. The product last year em-braced 751,030 baskets of peaches ; 141,-740 bushels of apples ; 15,754 baskets ofpears; 1,100 pounds of grapes; largequantities of plums and cherries, andberries beyond computation. I t is theparadise of fruit for the Northwest, and,what is more, a paradiso that grows bet-tei^nud bigger every year.

But, not to dwell further upon statis-tics which may be dry reading, it is cer-tain ihat Miol igan is &t this time movingon to the full development of her vastand vaiied resources tit a most gratify-ing rate. The staple productions ofag-"riculture, the luscious products cf thenoble orchards of the State, an; in-creasing with each passing year.

Ring Log.In a Washington letter Donn PUtt

writes :For the first time in the history of

the United States we have a Presidentwho draws bis salary witli healthy regu-larity, and is io every word the King Logof tho fable. We had been so longtroubled with the King Stork and hiseternal aud infernal policy that to havea President who knows nothing, and didnot pretend to know anything, was re-freshing. But, since King Log hasturned all tho powers of the administra-tion over to seven gentlemen, and thesenot the wisest in the land, aud we findourselves possessed of seven differentpolicies, some of them conflicting, thachange is not so refreshing.

For a time here tho all-absorbingquestions were, who runs the administra-tion, who is Grant's confidential adviser?The conundrum dried out for lack ofinterost, for it was discovered that Granthad nothing to do with the administra-tion. The king smoked and said noth-ing, and the government run itself.

On investigation I found this to bethe fact: We have seven Presidents ;Fish controls the Stato Departmentwithout reference to any one ; Boutwellis lord of the treasury; Cox conductsthe interior, and Belknap the War De-partment, and so throughout. ThePresident is a solemn, silent, smokingfigure head, w ih abundance of time toput on a white choker and swallow-tai',and attend every eutei tainment to whichany one may invite him.

For the first time, I say, in our his-tory, we make an approach to the bureau-ocracy of France, under thc monarchy.Such a government means routine athome, and drilling abroad. In ourforeign affairs wo have no policy, and, athome, his serene highness fires anothercigar, at;d Fays : "Better move on with-out change" for another year, althoughthe people nru burdened to death withheavy taxation and bard times. Wehave had a year of this sort of thing,with the grim prospect ol having, inanother, tho Democratic party intervene;and, when it does, our excellent Presi-dent will quietly swim over, and smoke:ileiit'y ou the other sido.

Judging Himself.

The Detroit Free Fret* revives tbofollowing good siory :

Whittemore's plea that he sold cadet-ships in order to provide moro bounti-fully for charity, has a parallel in the oldstory of the miller, who, when his con-science had long been burdened over histoll stealings would summon the othermillers around him, open a court of trial,take the place of judge himself, andwould theu procoed to make a legal in-vestigation into the doiDgs of the assem-bled crowd, kepping his own case for thelist. He would put on a very stern anddignified air, tclliug them that he wasthe Lord, and coinmeoco :

"Hans Schmidt, shtand oop.""Hans, vat is peen your pishness in

''Vul, Han.0, you shall go ofter mit tegotes, already yet."

And so iu succession all were triedand immediately sentenced to go overto tho goats.

Last of all the miller invariably triedhimself in the following rtyte :

"Yacob Miller, shtand oop :"" Yacob, vat vas your pishntss in dat

What Takes Mm to Prison.A visitor to the Charlestown, Massa-

chusetts, State Prison, makes this re-cord :

Each of us had reworked, that if webad not knowu that we were iu prison,we should never have suspected the fact•TOin the appearance of the men. They

ere, on the whole, quite as respectableooking men as you will find, on thererage, ia any large manufacturing es-ablishment in the country.

" Warden," I asked, " how do you ac-ount for these men being here? Arehey really worsa than the average ofnen, or what is it that brings themere V" I think that they average quite as

well as the ordinary range cf men," eaidhe warden. " Eight out every tenome here, direclty or indirectly, byquor. When they are sober they are,

n general, as good men as you will find,don't give a guess when I say eight out

f ten. I have examined every case in-ividually, and know it, from the state-ments of the prisoners aud records of theourts."

' And what cause do you think," Isked, " leads men into these habits of

drinking?""The great cause is, not learning a

rade," said the warden. " Young fel-o*s are getting the notion that it is not

genteel to learn trades ; they idle awayheir time find get into saloons, and ac-

quire the habit cf drinking. Theu theyo to gambling places, and when theyose they are deperate. There aro had

characters who push men on into crime,and keep out of it themselves—the keep-ers of gambling saloons, and similarplaces—who waUh theso victims, and,

hen they aro desperate from their loss-es, suggest some burglary or roblery.They are easily led to do anything.Then they get caught nnd como here."

THE miSS—TBE CWKTI BOWKIn the Aiuae of l»«t week, we briefly

announced that, at a special Benson ofthe ttoard cf Supervisors, tho Count;Superintendent! of tbe Poor had bec-u au-thorized to expend not to exceed SM.OOOin erecting and famishing an additionalwing or building at the Couuly House,which it is uudersteod is for the uccom- jmodation of the iasane »f the county. IThe experiment—for tuch wo aro couii-dent it Is and will prove—has hten in-duced by the improvement in tbe actionand coudition of the insane innmtessince the completion of the building nowoccupied by them.

If rbo experiment is to bo confined tothe oare of the hopehstly insane, a classwhich caa not, at proeeut, for want ufmeans and room bo accommodated »udprovided for at the State Asylum, it iswell, for humanity* requires, that suchunfortunates be provided with somethingbetter thau the bare and forbidding cellsusually assigned to them at CountyHouses. But if the Supervisors and theSuperintendents contemplate providingfor tho curable or supposed curable, forpatients who ouglu to bs under medical

treatment, then wo advise a pause be-fore the debt ia contracted.

For one we do not bcliieve that theinsane o? tho State can Le properlytreated and cared for in County Asylums.Their care and- treatment—if restorationis looked for—involves a larger outlayin building* and purroundings, ami in the

employment of skilled i intendouis.physicians, and attendants, t l m anycounty in the State, not even exceptingWayne, will be willing—if able—tomake. And iu cddi/ion, classifica;ion '.sabsolutely necessary, classification whLhcan not—involving as it docs both RFSO-ciation aud separation—bo successfully

I t is better then—if we aro right—for Was-htenaw County to pay for keep-ing her insane al Katamtzoo thau to at-tempt to provide for them at home.And if tfie Ka!a:nazoo Asylum ia notlargo enough it in tho duty of the Staleto make liberal appropriations that its

convention met some low fellows of thebaser snrt undertook to disturb it bynoise and interruption, such as the anti-• lavery meetings bad to encounter tenyears ago. Mr. Garrison was interrupt-ed in this way, and rebuked the disturb-ance in his sharpest manner; and bothhe and Mrs. Livermoregave their atten-tion tothe Free Press and the other slan-derers of spotless women in a way thattheir hearers will not soon forget. Theresult was hearty applause from a largeaudience, and the pressing invitation ofthe best people in Burlington to holdanother convention in that city, wherethe champions of woman suffrage shouldhave fair play and open opposition, in-ttead of sneaking abuse and mob law."We hope, for the sake of Vermont man-ners, that the Burlington insults wereexceptional, and the work of a city rab-ble. But Mrs. Campbell reports thatin the country town of North Fairfax,where she was holding a meeting, theopposition burnt cayenne pepper on thestove and rosorted to other offensivemeasures to disperse the audience. Tbeslanders of Montpelier Democrats andtho Burlington Republicans seem tohave had their legitimate effects, and aspirit is at work in Vermont which morenearly resembles the brutality of Phila-delphia medical students than the court-esy that New England nieu aro accus-tomed to show toward women. Suchpersecution only increases tho numberof converts to the woman suffrsgeparty, and so defeats tho object of itspromoters, while it leaves a stain on thefame of Vermont that none of us can

look at without pain-Columbus Dispatch to the Cincinnati Qaz»tte.

Intl.Woman Suffrage Wonrrn.T?ho following memorial signed by

141 women of Lorain County, was readin the Mouse to-day, and was listenedto with profound attention by everymember present:

We acknowledge no inferiority tomen. We claim to have no less abilityto perform tho duties which God-hasimposed upon us, than they have to per-form those imposed upon them.

We believe that God has wisely andwell adapted each sex to the proper per-formance of the duties of each.

We believe our trusts to be as im-portant and sacred as any that exist onearth.

• Wo feel that our present duties fill upthe whole measure of our timo aud abil-ities ; and that they are such that noneliut ourselves can perform.

Their importance requires us to pro-teet against all efforts to compel ua toassume those obligations which can notb'e separated from suffrage ; but whichcannot be performed by us without thesacrifice of the highest interests af ourfamilies and' of society.

I t is our fathers, brothers, husbandsand sone, who represent us at the ballotbox. Our fathers and brothers love us.Our husbands are our choice, and onewith us. Our socs are what WE makethem.

We are content that they representus in the corn field, the battlefield, andHt the ballot-box, and we represent themin the school room, at the fireside, andat the cradle ; believing our representa-tion, even at the ballot-box, to be thusmore full and impartial than it couldpossibly be, were all women allowed tovote.

We do, therefore, respectfully protestngainst any legislation to establish "Wo-man's Suffrage" in our land, or in anypart of it.

NATURALIZATION.—There seems to be adetermination in Cong rets to extend thetime of residence iu this country before aforeigner can he naturalized, and also tothrow other great embarrassments In theway.

We trvst every person entitled to become acitizen under tlie present laics Kill immediately doso. Citizenship Is a great privilegeand should not be lust by neglect or imlifference.— ElizabetltUwn Qf. Y.) Pfitt.

The above paragraph is equally applicable to this section. The bill pend-ing in Congress is designci not only tocompel naturalization iu the UnitedStates Courts—at a great inconvenienceto the applicant—but to prevent foreign-born residents voting on what is gener-ally known as "first papers." Those,therefore, who have declared their intentions to beeoraa citizens, if the requisitetime has since elapsed, should losotime in getting their "full papers," thatis, thoir certificates of naturalizationThere are hundreds of suoh in Washte-naw County, and we don't know but wemight with safety say thousands. Fortheir information, wo would cay that tlieCircuit Court will bo in cession in thiscity, on Tuesday, April 5th, when thoseinterested would do well to be presentand be made citizens.

There aro two other classes of foreign-born residents who should make a flankmovement on Congress and save themselves money and trouble,—that is ilthey have a dosire to become citizens.Thoso who served iu the army duringthe late war and were honorably discharged, and those who came into theUnited States before they were eighteenyears old and havo resided here* fiveyears, may bo ndmitted to citizenshipwithout having first made declaration oftheir intentions.

— Township committees would dowell to call the attention of persons in-terested to these facts. I t is ttlso desir-able—as the act of Congress when pass-ed will probably recognize previous dec-laratioQs of intention in Stato Courts—for all whe have uot done so to visit theoffice of our friend liomsoN. the CountyClerk, and file such declaration immedi-ately. As the law now stands they mustdo so before the 7th day of May next ifthey wish to vote next November.

The Ladies' Chrktian I'nlon.The second annual re-union cf the Ladies'

Christian Union of this city, was held hithe ltd lire-worn oftlie I'resbyteriim Churchon Friday evening last, on which occasiontli" members of the Union nud invitedguests made o goodly uiuubex The exer-

of the occasion consisted in brief re-marks by RBV. W.

The result of tlie two years experiencgiven mainly to assisting the poor confirmsus iu the previously held opinion, thaintemperance and improvidence are the mailcauses of all our pauperism and povertyThe first is a gigantic evil against whlclwe bruised our heads without nit'ectinx iin the least.,, yet we propose to continue doing it battle, trusting that tlie conthnuidropping of water will wear away thstone. This evil furnishes us with plentyof work to do. Broken-hearted, dlscomaged wives to comfort; starving childreitn Feed ; nigged families to clothe aud instruct; aged mothers to protest. Iu man)instances this mother has beeu that broken-hearted wife's only comforter through manylong years of trial. She has divided withher until there is no more to ttivida, andnow age and infirmity forbid further tollfor child or grand-child, yet she has uohome that is vsorlliy. olths name. Perhapsthe experience of life—an early widowhood,destitution, the struggle to maintain herchildren and bring them up respectubly,and after nil failure,—has taught her tlieweakness of all human effort unaided bythe Divine, and she has. learned to trust iiiGoti M»t In t>n' midst of the cu.rsts andbroils of a drunken son's home, or around adaughter's hearth Whose husband love.-, tolook upon the wine when it is red, she findsnu. peace, and only waits until she is calledup higher where no drunkard can come.

Yon arc all familiar with the oilier classI meution-ed — improvident people — whosometimes work and sometimes do not.They ouly work when starvation is at thedoor. Here we find the man working stead-ily at low wages, but never accumulating,whose wife is an inellieient, unambitious,aimless woman, satislied when the presentemergency is met, .whether by charity orotherwise. Again we find the father of alarge family lazily losing all his opportu-nities lor acquiring, spending liis time andstrength at worse than nothing, while themother is a hard laboring woman, givingher Hie for her children, having a misera-ble house for a home, patched rags for herchildren's garments, charity's gifts for herscanty provision, and perchance an agedmother dependent upon her for a home.But It is a home without comfort that shefurnishes her, and we find tbe aged Infirmwoman, who has doue her share of workand who can but partially support herselsuffering with the young who ought to 1:made to work or allowed to starve.

These two classes of aged women, respecable In character, many ot them worthChristians, furnished by these two largclasses in the community—the Intemperaiand the improvident—tax largely our benevolence and our sympathy. There is sii

Bat it is no fancy sketch we haventwn. Wo can tajce you to the homes ofliese women,five or f « how we It we as-ited, and show you hosy they live, andvill »aji our piolwe is no fanciful one. Itjiiiy be that they would not accept such alome as we propose to furnish. It may behat love for the companionship of childrenvouId be stronger than a deailre tor theirwn comfort, it may be that they have

The rules and regulations of such a-Ioiue would of coarse be such us to pro-tect it against imposition Irouu the design-ng. It should be conducted by Christian

and beuevolent women, Whose province isto labor for the elevation of their own sex,and to bring all, if possible, to the level olthe gospel. It would be designed to- belie-lit and provide for a class who can not beso well provided for In any other, way. Itdoes not seem to us to, be a mere theory,that looks beautiful upon paper, but wouldbe impracticable in the execution which wepresent. It would be practicable to rent ahouse, securing tho rent by annual dona-tions, furnished in the plainest style, fromfunds, contributed for that purpose, thatwould, accommodate a famliy of eight ortwice eight persons. An executive com-coininitte could obtain by contributionsfrom our country friends vegetables, fruits,Hour and meat sufficient to meet the wantsof such a family.

The inmates of si:ch a home couldearn enough to supply their own wardrobe,in addition to what eonld be easily obtain-ed from friends. True, we may not be ableto see the end from the beginning, but allexperience and obsi rvatiou have tliught usthat -when as Christian workers, we dowhat In the Providence of (_iod is furnishedus to do, the way is opened for doing farbeyond our expectations. We propose,therefore to the Ladles'Christian Union thatwe give ourselves to this work.

Now that Judge HIOBY lias held his firstterm in our county, and gone through thelongest calendar ever gotten up in thepourt, or at least in many years, we arepleased to s:iy that he gained the good willand confidence of Bar, Jury, litigants andthe public. Before separating, the Juryadopted ami unanimously signed a resoldtion, which was presented to Judge IIIGBYcommending him ior the ability, impartiali-ty, courtesy, and patience with which hehad discharged the onerous and not over-agreeablc duties Incumbent upon him. Weproposed to gratify the Jury and the manyMends Judge HIGBY has made in our Coun-ty by publishing the resolution with thesignatures appended, but the modesty ofthe Judge conflicting with our intentions,—Sod he having possession of the document,—vvc are obliged to be content with this ver-sion of it.

In Justice MOKIBKAN'S Court, onTuesday, a colored boy named JOHN AI.T.ENwas convicted of chio^eu stealing from acolored brother, and sent up for 80 days,—prooably because the jury was white.ALLEN was defended by 3 colored lawyer,who n his peroration said that "if hethought his client stole the chickens hewouldn't defend him, but he wished thejury to take into contemplation that as theXVth amendment is adopted we want ourrights." The jury did, and in three minutesrendered a verdict of guilty.

— Jon.v IiAWBBNCE officiated as Prose-cuting Attorney and waved his right toclose the case; We were especially im-pressed with the charge of Justice Mc-KERNAN to the jury. It was : "Now leavethe room, all of you," and the mottledcrowd, the officers, the prisoner, and thecourt, left, the jury alone remaining to "findthe}*- verdict," in which they succeededbetter than the jury of frcedmen down inSouth Carolina, which "sarched the roomall over, and couldn't dud no yardict 110-Jvhar."

A respectable audience, both in char-acter and numbers, gathered in the oldEpiscopal Church last Friday evening, at-tendant upon the closing exerci-es of thelight school for colored persons. A reportwas read by Prof. A. K. SPENCB, which wascry minute In Its details, giving tlu at.»ndaoc4j average age of pupils, interestnanifested, and much other interestingnatter. The Treasurer's report showed theexpenses of the school to be very light,only a little ove,r eighteen dollars being ex-pended/which amount was raised by volun-ary contributions from our citizens. Afterhe reading of the reports speeches werenadc by a number of the spectators, andalso by gome of the colored people, inter-spersed by the singing of hymns. Dr-

LLKsriE, the founder of the school, hasplnced the colored people of the city under

1 have secured an evening mail from theEast to commence to day. Arriving toolate for distribution in the evening, it willbe distributed In the morning at half pastseven. By this arrangement we receivetwo mails from the east and send the samenumber.

On and after#\pril 1st, the Postoffice willbe closed at half p u t seven p. >i., except onSaturdays, for the following, among otherreasons ;

The present arrangement will requiremore labor and more constant attention onthe part of all connected with the office.

The balance of the time after half postseven is necessary In order to balance theaccounts of the office, and finish up thebusiness thnt can not be done while theoflicCts open.

Experience shows that but very few cometo the office after half past seven, and 1 si eno reason why such persona can not coir.cbefore that time.

There are other reasons which 1 do notdeem it necessary to state here, but whichI will gladly state to any person who willtake the trouble to eall on me.

On Saturday evenings the ollice will bekept open till half past eight Cor the pur-pose of distributing and delivering theeastern mail and aceoinoduting farmers whoreceive their mail here and who, during thebusy seasons, often come for their mail lateSaturday evening.

I trust the above arrangement will besatisfactory lo the public. Should any por-sons be inconvenienced thereby, I wouldthank them to let me know it, as I wish toaccommodate the public hi every possiblemanner.

How lo firl Fat.It is a striking fact that most p

vrtint to n'e;j;!i more than they do, andmeasure their health by their weight, asif man were a prf, valuable in propor-tion to his heaviness The racer ia notfat; a good plough horse has but a mod-erate amount of ilesh. Heavy men arenot those which experienced contractorsemploy to build railroa-'ls and dig ditch-es. Thin men the world over, are themen for work ; for endurance ; theyare wiry and hardy ; thin peoplo livethe longest; tha truth is, fat is disease,and, as proof, fat peoplo are never well atlay at a time,—and are not suited forhard work. Still there ia a medium be-t.veen being as fat as a btilter-ball andaa thin and juiceless as a fence-mil. Formere looks, a moderate rotundity is mostdesirable, to have enough flesh to coverall angularities. To accomplish this inthe shortest time, a man should workbut little, sleep a groat part of the timeallow nothing to worry him, keep al-ways in a joyous, laughing mood, andlive chiefly on albumin itea, such Mboiled cracked wheat, and rye, and oats,and corn, and barby, with sweet milk,and buttermilk, and meats. Sugar istho best fattener known.

Some years ago there was a very re-markable man in Wall Street; his namewas on every tongue throughout thecountry as "the man who made paper,"that is, signed other men's uatnes tonotes payable to hirr.self, and sold themto banks, brokers and moneyed men inthe street at largo discounts. Most ofthe purchasers knew that the nameswere forged; but tempted by heavy dis-counts, and the "maker of paper" beingknown to take up his notes always be-fore they were due, the ball rolled onand up to hundreds of thousands. I twas s'ated on outh at the trial, and cor-roborated, that he always had the head-ache, and that he was never seen downtown without a cigar iu his mouth ; always thin, always complaining. He wassent to the penitentiary—was so faithfulto the laws, a:id so attentive to his bus-iness, and withal so ([reliable, that a clerk-ship or some ca«y berth was given him0<f a very quiet sedentary character. Inthe eecc-nd month of his imprisonmenthe had gained fifteen, pounds in weight.He was never allowed to smoke.

Within a year a man was charged withsome infraction of tho laws, nnd w isBent to prison to await trial, without theknowledge of his wife, to whom he h:idjust before been married, after a shortcourtship. In about three months sheascertained where he was ; and, on be-ing shown to his cell, eh-j at first didnot rcoognizs him, he had "fleshed upso." These are cases among ten thous-ands of other* which could be narrated,where persons have grown fatter by go-iog to prison; the rules of prison lifofully accounting for the fact. They donothing but eat and sleep. They eatregularly of plain meats and coarsebreads.

From all the statements made, theoonclus-ion is undeniable, that a safe,healthful, and sure method of increasingthe flesh, is to live a quiet, in-door life,sleep a great deal, tat regularly of plainmeats and coarse breads, or any of thegrains named, cracked in pieces, boiledwell, and eaien with milk; keeping thesystem cool by the use of cold water,and maintaining a daily and free actionof the bowels, which last is pretty sureto follow a diet composed mainly olooarse breads and craekad grains; be-cause chemistry has demonstrated'thatthe most nutritious and strengtheningpart of corn, oats, rye, bailey and wheatare in the outer part, in the shell orbran, which is unfortunately separatedfrom Ihfl inner portion, giving us thepure white and comparatively innutri-tious flour, while the mosF healthful andinvigorating part, tho bran or outer shelis thrown away or given to hogs, horsesand cattle.

Fivo ounces of sugar daily, will, sccording to Banting's observations, increase a man's weight one pound in sweek.—Health by Good Living.

Raise Bbecp—Eat Button.Good mutton, well fohed and neatlj

butchered, is the most wholesome, nu<mioi» and cheapest of meats. It growsquickly, and costs little to produce itcompared with beef and pork. Everyfarmer shonld have a few long-woolcd'Josset sheep, at least—Cotgwol'd or Leieesters. They are little trouble, andwill keep fat on the orts of the cattle.—They usually bring two lambs, whichwill sell to the butchers for from S8 to810 by the first of July. Their ileeceaverages from eight to fourteen poundswith from sixteen to twenty-five percent, shrink only. Their wool is now»nd will be, in the future, worth thirtyB«r cent, more than merino, which•brinks forty-five to sixty per cent, ac-cording to the fcimily arjd treatment ofthe flock. Long wool makes strong, ex-cellent aud durable stocking yarn, thoughit ia mostly UKed to make the brilliant,light and lustrous Orleans goods, forthe apparel of our pretty women. Twosuch sheep will yield as much profit as acommon cow, and five of them can bekept as c'aeiip as a cow in milk. Theirlambs and mutton would keep a farmersupplied with the best of fresh meat of•ne kind, as often as is necessary, theyear round, aud would make an ao-reea-blo episode to tho eternal round of saltjunk and pork, and bo far more healthythan either. Those who cat principallysalted meats show it in their complex-ions, their 6kin being less fair and smooth.Pork, at best, eaten oonstantly, producesirritation and eruptions of tho skin.

We have now a plenty of sho 'p in thecountry—32,000,000 head (more thanever before, according to the popula-tion). Then let all manufacturers, me-cbaoios, nnd all men who are intercstod

to have good meat and the board of op-eratives cheap and wholesome see to itthat mutton raising and wool growingare properly encouraged, ns a matter ofhealth and economy. Meat is a greatitem in the expense of board of opera-tive*, etc. If we grow om' own wool weshall always hrtve muttou plenty nndcheap. This will ailtet materially theprice of other meat, and the whole peo-ple, including the manufacturers, wouldprobably gain as much by cheaper msatsas they would lose by a proteetive dutyon wool; for, encouraged, both wooland mutton would be plenty and cheap.I'arm and Fireside.

The Importance of Learning a Trads*.Why is it that there is such a repug-

nance on the part of parents to puttingtheir sons to a trade ? A hkilled me-chanic is an independent man. Go whereho will his craft will bring him support.

He need ask favors of none. IIo basliterally, his fortune iu his own handsYet foolish parents, ambitious that theirsons should "rise in tha world," as theysay, are more willing that they shouldstudy for a profession, with the chancesof even moderate succors heavily againstthem, or ruo the risk of spending theirmanhood iu the ignoble task of retailingdry goods or of toiling laboriously at theaccountant's desk, than learn a tradewhich would bring them manly strengthand independence. In point of /act, themethod they choose is the one least like-ly to achieve tho advancement aimedat; for the supply of candidates for posi-tions as "errand-boys," dry goods clerks,and kindred occupations is notoriouslyoverstocked, while, on the other hand,the demand for really skilled mechanics,of every description, is ai notoriouslybeyond tho supply. The crying needof this oountry to-day is for skilled la-bor ; and that father who neglects toprovide his son with a useful trade, andto see that he thoroughly masters it,does him a grievous wrong, and runsthe risk of helping, by so much, to in-oreaso the stock of idle and df per.dent,if not vicious, members of society.

It is stated in the report of tLe PrisonAssociation, lately issued, that i-f four-teen thousand five hundred nnd oinoty-six prisoners, iu 18C7, eevout, -even percent., or over ten thousand of the Lum-ber, had never learred a trade. T;:e factconveys a lesson of profound interest tothese who have in charge the trbiningof boys, and girls too, for the acti\eduties of life.— Manufacturer and Builder.

SCENE AT A WOMAN'S RKU.-S MKE1.-ING.—At a recent wumau's rights meet-ing in Washington, one who said si ohad If ft her blossid bi by crying athome, in order to come to the meetingand speak, was interrupted by cries of"bring out that bic-sed baby ; give itto your husband to take care ot." Mrs.Dr. Lockwcod followed their advice, andwhile her husband was trotting thebaby on his knees in the ante-room, theaudience hooted, ''Mrs. Lockwood, thebaby is crying;" and they uitered oilierencouraging aud forcible remarks on thesure subject.

Hair Vigor,For restoring Gray Hair to

its natural Vitality and Color.A dressing •which

is at once agreeable,healthy, and effectualfor preserving thehair. Faded or grayhair is soon restoredto its original colorwith the gloss andfreshness of youth.Thin hair is thick-

ened, falling hair checked, and bald-ness often, though not always, curedby its use. Nothing can restore thehair where the follicles are destroyed,or the glands atrophied and decayed*l3ut such as remain can be saved forusefulness by this application. Insteadof fouling tho hair with a pasty sedi-ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.Its occasional use will prevent the hairfrom turning gray or falling off, audconsequently prevent baldness. Freefrom those deleterious substances vhicUmake somo preparations dangerous andinjurious to the hair, the Vigor canonly benefit but not harm it. If wantedmerely for a

HAIR DRESSING,nothiug else can be found so desirable.C'outaining neither oil nor dye, it doesnot soil white cambric, and yet lastslong ou the hair, giviug it a rich glossylustre and a grateful perfume.
