Self Respect In the Dining Room.

When the things in common use are In
terror to those paraded before company,
the family live In continued dread of acct
dental visitors, and meal time is a season
OF secresy. A ring at the doorbell produ-
ces the greatest CONSERVATION; the miss
tress of the house snatches up a broken
dish and puts IN to the closet, tells one
daughter to hide the pitcher that has no
handle, and another to carry away the old
plates and common spoons, while she runs
to the sideboard for better ones to supply
their places. 1t is only note after all,
so the whole scramble is for nothing =
Now would it not be more refined and dig
nified, as well as more honest and comfor-
table, to live bett T every day and make
less parade before company Instead of
using ordinary ware and parts of broken
sets OF different patterns when alone, and
having an expensive set of French porce-
lain In the closet for state occasions, would
it not be better to have blue and white In
dia ware all the time? That can always
be matched, and by using the same as
best and common, you viii never have a
motley assemblage of dishes and plates to
be used up
If you can afford to have expensive ia
bic furniture laid up for company, then
yers can afford to use whole dishes and
handsome spoons every day, and by so do
ing you will escape great many uncom-
Portable feelings, and be far more hospit.
able and friendly. A person should have
too much self respect to use anything
when alon. that is unfit for her condition,
or to wish to conceal anything that be-
longs to it If you think it right to con-
tinue the use of any utensil of glass or of
china after it has been married by some
accident, do it openly, care not who sees
1T. If you are ashamed to have it seen
be ashamed 70 use it at all A proper
self respect requires this.-Nrs. Fdrrdr 8

Some rebel deserters have given fabulous ac-
counts OF tho rebel force in front Of Richmond,
but, as there is equally reliable evidence that il
does not go much over 100000 men, there is NO
use telegraphng their exaggerated statements.
One deserter, who says he was on duty in the
rebel ouartermaster's Department, states that one
hundred and eighty thous and rations arc issued

three days ago. bu It's eviden. that the rebels is

information he possesses; besides hi, sv,n,athies
are believed to be with the rebels. He cprfrms
the ref orr OF bic panic in Richmond, and
intmates that every tody in the rebel goyern-
ment is packed up, ready to depart.
1t is mistake that the President has called for
n specific number Of additional volunteer. Tho
calls issued are directed to the differen, State
Governors for volunteers to Gil up their respective
regiments that have fallen below the lawful
quotas through the usual casualties of war.
Some additional entire regiments have also been
requested, which, when raised, will form the me-
cessary reserve corps. The latter number may
be fifty new regiments.
Over one hundred applications were made to-
day for the return Of fugitive slaves. The owners
claimants all take the oath Of allegiance, ough
the manner in which they speak OF the govern
ment in court sometimes leaves doubt as to their
sincerity.
The Fugitive Slave Law Commissioners to-day
decided, on tho points raised yesterday, that it
was discretionary with them to allow exam-
inations as to identity Of ownership, and there
fore they permitted it in the case Of Stephen,
| clamei by citizen Of Maryland. This case was
concluded by the remanding of this slave to the
claimant.
This morning, while the Seventy sixth New
York Regiment was marching through that city,

tiyes, when many of the soldiers interposed.

Mur1SY.-The builders of our city
we're in . terrible stew yssterday, owing to
what they considered unfair treatment on the
part Of an architect. who had the letting Of
the contract for building . dwelling for one
Of our citizens. The builders asserted there
was a disposition on the part Of q certain
church to run the carpenter business. At one
time it was thought it would be necessary to
read the riot act, and call out the Horse Ma
rines to dieperse the crowd. The trouble
simmered down, however, without damage Or
loss Of life.
