THE ROWAN SoLDIERy AND THEIR LAND
GhANrs.-Whon the Roman Republic existed
in full yigor the soldiers were rewarded by
grants of land. An estate was allotted To
the veteran, and he became entitled to the
rents and profits as his retiring pay, instead
Of receiving a stipend from the treasury. The
policy was that the public should enable those
whose strength had been worn out in the SER
vice Of their country, 10 enjoy the quiet and
comfort Of ropose in their old age; the boon
was the discharge of just debt, and at the
same time this act Of justice added greatly to
the security Of the commonwealth the gray
headed warrior, who had served the republic
with honor, was bound to his allegiance by
gratitude. He taught obedience and loyalty
to his son, and encouraged the youth to walk
in the same path, and to hope for the same
reward; so that when his time of toll and
danger should be fulfilled, he also might be-
come the peaceful citizen of the State which
he has deiended.-Roman History,
A concert has been originated in Cincinnati
for the relief Of the poor to which the price
Of admission is one ready-made garment
either new or secondhand.

DIR. CHANNISe ON THEATREs.-A writer in
late number Of the Independent, who is un-
derstood to be MIR. Lewis Tappan of New
York, gives an interesting account of a club
meeting he attended thirty years ago at the
house Of Rev. DR.. Charming of Boston, com
posed of lawyers, clergymen, physicians, and
merchants, at which the question was discuss
ed of encouraging the fremont Theatre, then
projected as reformed place of amusement.
DR.. Charming stated that he had long thought
that religious persons should interest them.
selves more than they had done in public
amusements, with view to elevate their char.
aeter, allure the young men from corrupt
pleasures, and make amusements subseryient
to good morals. With this view he should
be glad to have the experiment of purified
theatre tried. But if theatres are to be what
they have been, he should consider them
great evils.

LADY NAPIER.--While Lord Napier, the
English Minister, was busy at Washington,
his lady sojourned at the Gilmore House,
Baltimore. The fashionable circles were agi-
tated by the presence Of the wife of live
lord, and her ladyship received numerous
calls and party invitations. The American
ladies of fashion, deliberately and gaudily at
tired in founces and jewels, were surprised
to find the English lady in exclusively plain
dress, totally free from all display, glitter, and
nonsense. Not single jewel was visible
about her person. The wife of Lord Napier,
however, is woman of high birth. who can
trace her decent from long line of illustrious
ancestors. She is nevertheless remarkable,
though born and educated in the heart Of
European refinement and cultivation, for the
plainess of her apparel, the simplicity Of her
manners, and the entire lack of ostentatious
pretension. She administers a severe rebuke
to the upstart, peacock vanity which distin-
cuisines SO many of our people.
