kENosHA charlottesville made
q visit the other day to the Lighthouse
at this place, to take view of the new
lighting apparatus. 1t is described as
ga fixed light varied by flashes occur
ring at intervals of one minute and
thirty seconds. The illuminating APP
paratas is eatadioptric, and of the fifth
order of the system of Fresnel" We
have seldom seen nicer piece of work
manship, than this Illuminating appara-
tus. The cost Of it was 81 800. Mr.
John DUFFY, the obliging and faithful
Light Keeper, showed us the working
Of the apparatus, and explained its prin-
clples. The flashes are caused by re-
revolving redectors, which are kept in
motion by clock-work; frequency of the
flashes being governed by an easy adj
Unstable regulator. The whole lighting
apparatus is most complete and highly
finished piece Of machinery, which tbs
difficult to describe. The manufacturer
is Henry Porault, Paris.

ing his brains out because Desdemona
was maligned? There are a good many
symbols, even, that are more expressive
than words. [ remember young wife
who had to part with her husband for
time. She did not write Z mournful DO
EN-; indeed, she was a silent person, and
perhaps hardly said word about it; but
she quietly turned of deep orange color
with jaundice. A great many people in
this world have but one form of rhetoric
for their profoundest experiences
namely, to waste away and die. When
man can read, his paroxysm of feeling
is passing. When he can read, his
thought has slackened its hold.-You
talk about reading Shakespeare, using him
as an expression Ior the highest intellect,
and you wonder that any common person
should be so presumptuous as to suppose
his thought can rise above the text which
lies before him. But think a moment.
A childs reading CT Shakespeare is one
thing, and Coleridge's or Schlegels read
ing Of him is another. The saturation-
point of each mind differs from that of
every ether. But [ think it is as true for
the small mind which can only take up
little as for the great one which takes up
much, tnat the suggested trains of
thought and feeling ought always to rise
above--not the author but the readers
mental version of the author, whoever he
may be.
I think most readers Of Shakespeare
sometimes find themselves thrown into
exalted mental conditions like those pro-
duced by music. Then they may drop
the book. to pass at once into the region
of thought without words We may hap
pen to be very dull folks, you and l. and
probably are, unless there is some partic-
ular reason to suppose the contrary. But
we get glimpses now and then of a sphere
Of spiritual possibilities, where we, dull
as we now are, may sail in vast circles
round the largest compass of earthly in
telligences.
"---I confess there are times when |
feel like the friend [ mentioned to you
some time ago. hate the very sight of
a book. Sometimes it becomes almost
physical necessity to talk out what is in
the mind, before putting anything else
into it. 1t is very bad to have thoughts
and feelings, which were meant to come
out in talk, strike IN, as they say of
some complaints that ought to show out
wardly.
81 always believed in life rather than
IN books. suppose every day of earth,
with its hundred thousand deaths and
something more of births,-with its loves
and hates, its triumphs and defeats, its
pangs and blisses, has more of humanity
in it than all the books that were ever
written, put together. Ibelieve the flow
efs growing at this moment send up more
fragrance to heaven than was ever exhal-
ed from all the essences ever distilled"

what "A Woman Thinks About
Her Flights.

To the Editors of the Eeenih7 Post:
Allow me to enclose yGu an extract
from private letter written by lady, in
regard to that much-vexed question, "Wo-
mans rights and wrongs" 1t speaks for
itself, | think, and needs no introduction
or apology:
As for woman's rights I have a
strong belief in them, and insist upon
them, as you know, but l never expect
to insist upon those which will almost
certainly supersede such as she possesses
now. don't believe, for instance, that
when women so tie polls to vote, men
will run around to get carriage for them,
if it chances to be raining, or if she differs
from them in politics and | prefer the
right to such attentions, TO the privilege
Of voting, | have every right for which
| have any desire, thank Heaven! have
the right to be taken care of, and guard
ed, and comforted, and protected from
priVation, and of sharing my husbands
interests, with which | have no rights
that conflict, What lively time we
should have if we disagreed in politics, or
party, OF principles; and now charming a
woman would look nursing baby and
reading or writing political articles. I
think it would be quite awful to have a
woman kept from going to vote by such a
cause as detained Curtis from delivering
his lecture in Philadelphia, when Beech
e. supplied his place and gave the reason
so frankly, Yes, l believe in the legal
changes to protect unhappily- married
women and all that, but voting If my
husband ever advocates my voting, shall
be sure he wants to kill me off. As if |
didn't have enough to do and think about
without posting myself up in the affairs
Of the nation, for whose management men
were specially created! If not, | wonder
what as the use of them" CUBUM.

Gov. CHASE, CT OHIo, ON TEMPER
ANCE.-In his Message to the Legisla.
ture, he makes the following suggestions
On Intemperance. It remains to be seen
how Democratic Legislature will heed
them:
"The conspicuous fact that in numcr-
Gus instances the causes of the infrmities
and especially Of the idiocy, lunacy, and
crime, which fill our Asylums, our Peni-
tentiary, and our Reformatory Institutions
are to be traced to the violation of natural
laws, and especially to Intemperance, can
not fail to attract your notice. More gen
eral instruction in the physical laws Of
life and well-beirg, and in the moral and
religious obligations connected With them
must be relied on for the diminution and
prevention of these violations. The Con-
stitution of the State authorizes the Gen
eral Assembly to provide by law against
the evils resulting from the traffic in in
toxicating drinks. While intemperance
crowds our prisons, desolates our homes,
robs society of its brightest ornaments,
and proclaims itself everywhere the foe
of virtue, of peace and of security, all
right-minded men will agree that what
ever can be rightfully done TO protect the
community from such an evil, should be
done. 1t will be your duty to consider
this subject with a wise reference to the
demands Of public sentiment, with sin
core respect for personal rights, and with
an honest purpose to accomplish the end
indicated by the Constitution"

its watery raiment is swept away. So the
heart, covered with prosperity, may or may
not be in right state, but whether it is
or not, cannot be told until some distress
comes. When the hand of the Almighty,
however, cleaves the food SO as to let his
flying host pass, and thus open the water
in seam to its bottom, we can tell what
our foundation is. The Lord then says
to the heart that he has cut into the very
quick, 'Dost thou love me?" Then alone
can the true answer come, "Thou know
est that [ love thee"

BY ELIZABETH c. WRIGHT.

Like to lake the stream before me lieth,
Between a rocky and a wooded shore,
Grading the many tints where daylight eth,
Repeating each expiring glory DER.
And then the forest shadows shake and
simmer
In every ripple by the breezes curled;
All shapes are mingling in one common
glilnmer,
Within that mirrors strange, inverted world.
A white sail like a sea-bird Ger it glideth,
And floats behind the islands twilight gray,
Where creeps pale mist slowly up and hide.h
Whatever lieth in its "milhy way"
The blue Itasca would not know her daughter,
So soiled with travel and so overgrown,
Which spreads yOn rolling sea of turbid water
A thousand leagues cut toward the burning
zone.
From ont the caverned bluff the night-bird
calleth,
And from the quarry comes an ans'ring cry
TIE fitting double OF the light-hawk falleth,
DOWnwhere the other shiyering shadows lie.
And one white star on nights cool forehead
glistens,
And gistens upward from the wave 5 we'll !:
And with hushed breath my spirit hstcn5
To some sweet mus;c's far-o# dying swell.
