LADIES DEPARTMENT.
Woman and Home.

There is bundle of delights bound up
in the sweet word lame. The word is
typical of comfort, love, sympathy, and all
the other qualities that constitute the de-
lights of social life. We're the everyday
enjoyments of many pions, Intelligent, ana
alfectionate families of our country faith
fully portrayed, they would exceed, in
moral leroism, interest, and romance, most
of the productions Of the pen of fiction.
The social well-being Of society rests on
our homes, and what are the foundation
stones of our homes, but woman's care and
devotion.
The man that battles for his -country's
affairs and her fires, must go forth from a
domestic sanctuary that is made bright and
beautiful by woman's sympathy and self
denying interest. The chilling air of sell
iishncss and neglect in the home circle is
as destructive as autumnal frosts to noble
impulses and philanthropic efforts.
\ good mother is worth IN army Of ac-
1uaintanccs, aud a truc-hearted noble-miu-
ded sister, is more precious than the "dear
Eve hundred friends" The love we expe-
ricncc for domestic blessings, increases
our faith, " an infinite goodness, and it is
a forecast, Of 4 better world to come. Our
homes are the support of the government
| and the church, and all the associations
and organizations that give blessings aud
vitality to social existence are herein orig
mated and fostcred.
| Those who have played round the same
door step, basked in the same mothers
smile in whose veins the same blood flows,
are bound by sacred tie that can never
be broken. Distance may separate, quar-
rcls may occur, but those that have ca
pacity to love anything must have at times
a bubbIing up Of fond rccolleclions, and a
ycdrning after the joys of by gone days.
Every woman has mission on earth. BE

Pay ofthc Troops

A table ofsalarics attached TO the differ
erent grades in the army is going the
rounds, which is likely to mislead the rea-
der. It is stated that the pay Of colonel
is s2tS per month and that Of a private
$50, the Intermediate grades being in pro
portion. The above sums include besides
the regular pay, the allowance for rations,
(whon commutcd) horses, servants, &c,
which ought not TO be reckoncd as pay.
The actual stipend per month ofthe officers
and men, in the different branches Of the
service of the United States, is as follows
