Fixed Laws in Society.

In society we find law running through the
most apparently uncertain events. Thus the pro-
portion of men and women born into the world
has been so nearly ascertaned that we can guess
very near the proportion of boys and girls that
will be born in any place, in given time. The
proportion is about lO6 males to 100 females
There have been various reasons assigned why
there should be more males than females come in
to the world. Some say the surplus of men. is an
allowance for wars and accidents TO which men are
more exposed. Others, that the six to every hun
dred given on account of the celibacy of the
Catholic priesthood
Others again suppose that society needs GER
tain infusion of old bachelors. to give it flavor as
lemons to punch But the most philosophical rea-
son, probably. is that given bya lady the other
day, who said i. was TO produce proper equili-
brium of character between the sexes-1OO wo-
men amounting to as much lo6 men Suppose
this law changed, and three fourhs of the persons
born to be males. What state of society should
we have? 1t would be like that of San Francis
co, in the early age of gold-digging-and no faint
type of hell If the reverse should happen, and
three-fourths of humanity become females, every
year would be leap year The poor males
would be obliged to hold Worcester Conventions
in favor of the rights of men and the propriety of
the Bloomer costume

SITS All Right"

As the fleet steamer r. was coming up the
Mississippi not long since, several way passengers
came on board at Vcksburg, and among others
giant looking mdde-aged Kentuckian, who very
soon became the subject of curiosity wonder and
remark. After travelling short distance, the par
ty, except ''cur hero" made their way to the
Captains Office, and paid their fare to their pla
ces OF destination. The next day the clerk made
bold to call on the delinquent passenger, who had
taken no birth but had passed the greater part
of his time in sleeping in his chair, and with his
usual urbanty of manner, asked the kentuckian
to give him his place of destination, as it would
aid him in making up his book, intending his ques
ton also as gentle hint to pay his fare.
The giant reused from his lethargy and replied
''I'm going up the river piece, Mr.. Clerk, it's
all right"
The Clerk not being much wiser by this reply,
again politely inquired,
"At what point do YOU expect TO land sir?"
'Dn't land at no pint Mr.. Clerk. It's all right
though
Here the Clerk left our hero and went to con-
suit the captain who at once lost his good humor,
rs the clerk related the result of his interview with
the delinquent customer. He proceeded forth
with to bring the matter to focus, and according
ly accosted the Kentuckian, saying
''How far are you going to bear us company up
the river, uncle"
'Oh I'm agoing to go a piece up with ye-but
it's all right captain!
But sir, said the Captain, you have neither
paid your fare nor given the clerk your place Of
destination, and you are old enough to know that
the custom of steamboatsmen is, that when man
refuses to pay his fare to give good reason for
not paying we put him ashore Immediately.
Wall, captain, 'spose tits your custom but it's
all right.
Here the captain lost his patience and resolved
to put him ashore Immediately, and accordingly
ordered the pilot to land and him to make ready
to 90 ashore, to which he very graciousy replied
It's all right captain
The boat landed and the plank was put out, the
giant was told to walk to which he readily assent
ed saying,
Its all right
After getting on terra frma, the captain gave
him short blessing for giving him the trouble to
land, and threatened him top dressing if he ev-
er saw him sgain, dc. To which the Old man re-
sponded with an air of triumph, pointing to a fine
cottage Just above him on the bank
It's all right, captain, that's my house Captain,
It's all light Evansville Journal.

Throw pearl away
Richer than all it's tribe.

1t is curious fact that during the year 1889.
when the Virginia Legislature actually discussed
laws for emancipating our slaves, they rose i'm.
mensely in price And now the same curious phe-
nomenon is repeated. In the midst of all this
Cncfe Tom clatter, the price of slaves has more
than doubled. Seven years ago we had reason to
be cogniEant Of the sale of powerful young ne
s o. He was sold for FIVE hundred dollars. On
this day he would bring upon the same spot not
less than fifteen hundred. These facts show how
little Importance the business word-the money
changers-Napoleon' seers-attach to Abolition.
We commend these facts TO the editors of the Tri-
6ane They live in commercial community. and
know how quickly causes diminishing the security
OF property, diminish also the market price

incapable of utterance, gresped bis hand and en-
braced him. In the same aiFectionate manner he
took leave of each succeeding officer. The tear
OF manly sensbility was in every eye, and not a
word was artieulated to interrupt the digni6ed 81
lence, and the tenderness of the scene. Leaving
the room. he passed through the corps of lght-in-
hntry, and walked to Whiteha,i where a barge
waited to convey him to Powles' Hook. The
whole company followed in mute ant solemn pro-
cesson with detected countenances, testifying feel
ings of delicious melancholy, which no language
can describe. Having entered the barge, he turn

The room in which the above described scene
took place, remains as it was at that time. This
building was partially destroyed by fire in 1859.
Another edifce of note was the Government
House." which stood ON an eminence at the foot
of Broadway, south of the Bowling Green, where
now stands a range of fine brick houses. The
house was a large double brick building, with a
snowy portco in 'front.' to which the ascent was
made by many steps. The apartments were many
and spacious, and the yard and garden behind
extended to Stone street, and occupied the whole
block bounded by State street on the west, and
by Whitehall street on the east 1t was erected
in $780, and originally intended for the residence
of General Washington, then President of the
United States, but the Capitol being removed, he
never occupied it. 1t then became the Governors
house, and was the residence of Governors Geo.
Clinton and John Jay. This building was subse-
quently used for the Custom House, from the year
1899 to 1915, VIXEN it was taken down, and the
lots on which it stood, and its garden, sold;
thus giving place to the private residences which
front the Bowling Green, and the Battery on State
street, as far as Bridge street.

Oh! she was fair and beautiful,
In girlhoods loveliest forms,
Her smile reflected radience,
AS the bow that circles storms
Her eye was bright and ever clear,
Her step as gentle as the breeze,
That fans her sunny cline so dear,
And wakes a music in the trees.
But not to her alone. was given,
Such gifts, that charm the eye,
For she received boon from heaven,
To fit her for the sky,-
Upon her brow so high and calm,
Mind, immortal, reared its throne,
And from her eye, so bright and blue,
The hottest virtues, brilliant, shone.
Could one believe, that this fair girl,
Who seemed to love and friendship given,
So soon, would thus, be snatched away,
And angel-like be borne to heaven p
But, so it was, the clod rests now,
On that blue eye and lifted brow,
That cheek SO bright, has ceased TO bloom.
Those rosy lips are mute, within the tomb
And dearest L. tho you are gone,
To dwell in heaven with spirits bright,
Thy memory will, forever live,
Within my heart, warm, dear and bright
And when in evenings Silly hour,
There's heard the sound of mrth and gIee,
Ny heart moved by its gentle power,
Will then, instinctively, remember thee.

THE HE-JUDAs-Mrs. H. B. Stowe had no
sooner touched British soil in the great white
slave factory called Liverpool. than she was pre-
sented by some appreciative fanatics with purse
of one hundred and thirty pounds. At that mo-

which he was attempting to support upon six
pence a day. was cursing in his heart the Govern
ment which partially fosters the titled despots who

Only Just Inside the Fence.

"Oh" cried the little children, "Oh, such
beautiful flowers and only just inside the tnce y
And then stealthy chances were cast up at the
windows; the gate pressed softly, the beautiful
flowers were snatched with trembling hand, and
the little children fed away with beating hearts
Were they now happier, because their guilty feet
had wandered into forbidden paths? Only lit
tie way had they gone, and 10! they had fallen IN
to sin
The freshness, the fragrance, the beauty of the
flowers, were not sufficient to still the remorsefnl
whisper of conscience. II aO0S only Just inside the
fence they had been, yet what an ugly mark had
sin set upon their brows!
Poor little children are we ALL Forbidden pleas
ure smiles and beckons to US, only Just inside the
fence. Our longing glances linger there: our feet
stray thitherward it is little way; no one sees
us, and we put forth our hands, and pluck the
flowers whose fatal beauty is snare to the soul.
Only Just inside the fence But that fence is
set between US and sin. One side of it we may
walk safely in the kings Highway" the other
side leads us to temptation, to folly, to crime
Once, when we have set our feet in the forbidden
paths, go again more boldly, till the time comes
when that fence set for our safety is broken down
and destroyed by our reckless indulgence in evil
desires. There is no longer barrier between us
and sin. We do not pause, or look round STEALTH
y. or tremble as we grasp the coveted pleasure !;
our locks are insolent and defiant the guilty blood
mantles not our cheeks at the detected fraud, the
selfish indulgence, the debasing irreverence. The
fence is broken down, and we wander unrestrnined
farther and farther on those inviting paths, whose
fatal termination is the SNARE the pitfa the abyss
Of darkness and eternal despair
:, Such beautiful .fotOers r. Turn from them,
touch them not. they are forbidden.
..Only Just inside tie fence r. Within that
fence is sin, without is safely.

formed me in the presence Of Col. Davis, that his
county preferred Barksdae, but that one of their dele
gates informed the balance that Mr.. E. Barksdale Of
the Mssissippan had just informed him that Capt. B.
was not candidate, and consequently the Madison
delegation changed their vote after It had been cast
for Barksdae. That E. Barksdale was pleased at the
final nomination of his brother suppose will be

And just here let me say that writing for the
