OLD Eyes In Young H.aa.I

About 1928, spectacles came into more pen.
eral use than they had been for many previous
years, or perhaps than they had ever been;
and for q few years after, one could not walk
square in any city without meeting young gem
tlemen and young ladies behind silver or gold
spectacle-frames. The rage at length subsidized,
and the naked eye was again deemed comely.
Now, however, another change has come over us;
ana although the nose is not made to carry the
burden, the optical glass is again called into
requisition, either for one or both eyes A chain
or cord around the neck ia generally licensed
oy ITS use; and when the glass and its frame are
very pretty thoy often swing outside the pocket:
or, II little single glass is used, the effort is
constant TO hold it between the eyebrow and
cheekbone. This effort not unfreouently calls
for corrugation Of the brow, contraction Of the
muscles radiating from the eye, and vulgar
kind Of hitch of the side OF the mouth, such az
is habtual with some men who labor hard in the
glare Of the sun.
1t is vulgar to be in perfect health, and elegant
to have defective vision We, however-poor,
everyday folks as ;se are-anong all the gifts
for which we are ever grateful, never fail to ac-
knowledge as choicest blessings the health that
we enjoy, and the preservation of our perfect or
gans of vision--mere highly ornamental, we are
sure, than chains Of purest gold or cords of
richest gems, with their dangling appendages
Il is weak conceit, this idea of affecting deli
cacy in any particular, and especially inconve-
nient to compel ones self to look through glass at
objects that can be seen without it. But the race
of light-headed people will not run out for many
a day

where Does Mr.. Jones Live.

"On Pennsylvania avenue, eh? ?" The gentle
man looked down to the ground for a moment,
and then, looking up again, said to another juve-
nile, "Pray, tell me, how long is Pennsylvania
avenue?"
"About two or three miles," said the boy ad-
dressed.
"Twoo or three miles!" said the stranger; "then
if look there for Mr.. jones' may be two or
three miles from his house. wish knew the
number of his house Where do the numbers

"Ilave no numbers here" said the boy
'What! no numbers for the houses on q street
two or three miles long? Oh, wonderful You
can have no conyenences here One may as well
be in New York as in Washington when he seeks
to learn your localities"
And it is even 50. No attempt has ever been
made at numbering any of the streets of this
metropolis Of vast lengths aud breadths. How
long shall we run on SO? Can we not in this
particular come up to Tinicum itselfH

The Iutelligencer of this morning says:
a. gentleman, who employs hi, practical
mind, and the Independent leisure which he has
acquired by years Of successful industry, in aud-
ably studying out objects of public advantage,
has communicated TO US, among the results of his
mentrl sbors, three different schemes each en-
braong Ii subject Of intercommunication. Ono
is for making q railroad Of forty miles from
Washington TO tho Point Of Rocks, there to con-
meet with the Baltimore and Ohio railroad; the
second for establishing line Of steamers from
Washington, via Norfolk and the Canary Islands,
TO Cadz, and thence up the Mediterranean to
the third and greatest, and the
most important, plan for building a railroad
from the Missouri river to the Rocky Mountains,
there to meet a similar road from the Pacific
shore"
We have partially examined these plans, to-
gether with the proposedmeans of concentrating
them, aud regard them as possessing much merit
and eyidencing very great ingenuity.

A ady Preacher.

The Rockville Journal tells US Of Mrs.
Newport, very intelligent lady belonging to the
Society Of Friends who delivered scriptural
discourse in the courthouse, few evenings
since. The house, the journal says, "was
crowded with ladies and gentlemen, and We have
rarely ever listened to sermon with more real
pleasure 1t was not only beautiful, ohaste, and
classic in language, but the doctrine was ortho-
dox, and the reasoning remarkably logical and
sound. We left the scene with the conviction
that the entire congregation was not only pleased
with the discourse and charmed with the speaker,
but profoundly impressed with the purity, sim
,icity, and solidity Of her teach ings."

Affairs In Georget own.

dEoRaEToVS, March IL.
One Of the most interesting missionary meet
ings ever held in our town came OF last night
at the Methodist Protestant Church Interesting
and eloquent addresses were delivered by the
Rev Samuel X Cox and E. Y. Reese, and a col
lection amounting to the handsome sum of 1926
was received.
Some Of the contributions seemed deeply 10
affect and interest the large and intelligent au.
dience-among them the presentation Of small
though well-fled box from Master Ninian Rem
ick, eight years old, son Of Mr.. I. Remick, our
Bridge-street fashionable halter; and of five dol
lars from Miss Anna Roberts, Of Alexandria,
eight years old. This amount was contributed
to assist in constituting little son of the Rev.
DR.. Murray life-member Of the Missionary So
ciety.
While speaking Of DR.. Murray, we may be per-
mitted to remark, that the removal OF no minis
ter of the gospel from this place, in our recollec
tion, has caused more regret among all classes
and denominations Of Christians than his During
his short stay of two years in our midst his dig
nifed and benevolent Christian bearing has won
for him the confidence and esteem of all j; and
wherever he may be sent by his Conference to
labor he will carry with him the warm affections
of this entire community and the fervent
prayers of hundreds of faithful Christians for
his long life and success in the great cause in
which he is engaged win follow him. 1t is
thought by some that he will be stationed in
Charleston, S. G.
Quite crowd was gathered together upon the
bank of the canal, near the market, this morning,
by the falling overheard Of a fellow who had been
indulging too freely in wbiskey. After consd-
erabe difficulty he was taken out and carried to
the watch-house by Mr.. Craig and others, who
stripped off his wet clothing and wrapped him up
comfortably with blankets. When he reached the
watch-house he was nearly exhausted from the
counteractng effects of the water and cold upon
his whiskey.
Mr.. Holbrook presented to the Georgetown
school yesterday, in the name of W. W. Corcoran,
ESQ.,, several hundred copies of his juvenile draw
ingb books and small though very useful works
