TIE TRAtxIS9 OF uoME CONVERSATION

THs TRAGNIN9 OF HONE CoNvERsATGoN.
To subordinate home training to school
training, or to intcrm;t the former in ia
yor of the latter, is a most palpable and
ruinous mistake. 1t is bad even i'll an
intellectual point of view. To say moth
ing of other disadvantages, it dcpriyes
girls of the best opportunities they can
ever have Of learning that most temin-
inc, most beautiful, most useful of all ac-
COMPLIMENTARY noble art Of CONVEX
sation. For conversation is an art as
well as a gift.--It is learned best by IA
milar intercourse between young and old,
in the leisure and unreserve of the even
ing social circle. But when young girls
are banished from this circle by the pres
sure of school tasks, talking with their
school-mates till they "come out I" into
society," and then monopolizcd entirely by
young persons OF their own age, they
easily learn to mistake chatter for con-
yersation, and small talk becomes for
life their only medium of exchange.
Hence with all the intellectual training
of the day, there never was a greater
dcarth of intellectual conversation.

The Cosr OF THE CAVALRY REGIMENT.
In accordance with the Government
standard, II lbs. of hay and II lbs. of
oats or other grain, are daily allowed to
each horse, making l64S0 lbs., or over s
tons of hay and 1900 lbs, of oats con-
sumed by the 1900 horses each day
When it is remembered that the horses OF
the Regiment cost sl20,000, the horse
equipments about $4,000, and that all
those horses are to be fed at daily cost
of nearly $500, and that all this expense
is additional to the cost OF regiment OF
infantry, we can obtain some idea of tho
expensiyeness Of this arm of the service.
Why.

The self-same coiors spread.
Where Nalors faithful arm upholds
The blue, the white. the red;
Alike each nations glttcrng crest
Reflects the mornings glance
Twin eagles, soaring east and west;
Once more then, Niye la France
Sister in trial who shall count
Thy generous friendships claim.

Call back one captain OF thy past
From glorys marble trance.

Wake up stout Charles Martel.

How PEOPLE GtyE.-Somo men will
give a dollar, and put 50 much heart into
it that it will be worth more than thou
sand dollars from another. Some men
will give, but it is as when miners blast
out gold bearing quartz, you have to drill
and drill till you can effect Iodgment,
and then put in good motives like pow
der, and then off at last goes the explo-
sion, and you are almost covered by the
rocks which they fire at you. This giving
is not what the Bible requires 1t is not
enough for our Father i'll heaven that we
are generous in Civ NJ. We must wreath

The following from the Rockland Dem.

The following from the Rockland Dem
ocrat is so pertinent aud true that it
ought be framed and hung up in every
dwelling in the loyal states. Every con-
siderable village in this state has few of
the class of persons described by the
Democrat, and they are recognized at all
times, while pretending to be for the
Union, by their excuses for the rebels,
and fault-fnding with the Union men.
That man who processes to be true to
the Union against the Southern rebels is
yet reaching back for their championship
and countenance by excusing their acts
by embarrassing the Government-by en-
couraging secession sentiments and known
secessionsts in the Northern States-is
riding two horses. He may cheat for
short time, but his ride will eventually
end in an unintentional summersct. The
trick will be discovered. The public is
not slow to detect duplicity. There are
but two paths in relation to this war
one which is taken by patriots, the other
by traitors and every man must walk in
one or the other; there is no middle
ground upon which he can stand. Those
persons who talk Union but extend their
sympathy and covert assistance to trait
ors, are traitors themselves, but too cow
ardy to avow and defend their sentiments
