separating the Sexes in Railway
Coaches.

A correspondent of one ofour exchanges
thus bewaiisthe custom introduced on some
of the railroads of separating the male
from the female passengers:
That sorting out of the flock; putting the
ribbons in one car and the whiskers in an
other, while it fails to benefit the ribbons,
is a positive damage to the whiskers, when
it is not a positive SANDER. Pen men up
together, and if they do not behave like
cattle it will be in spite of the pen. La
dies sprinkled through the cars keep the
entire train upon its honor, give it a human,
home-like look, refine travel, and elevate
the car from common carrier to an educa-
tor. TO have known fine woman is a
liberal education" is an old English utter
ance good enough for a proverb. But this
segregating fashion is barbarous, and wor-
thy of the Turks.

What They Fear.

Under no circumstances, and under nc
condition OF affairs, do the Republican poll
ticians want the White people of the South
to have voice in the Administration ol
Government. They do not fear that ifsuch
voice is allowed them, that anything det'
rmental to the Union will be done; but they
fear that power will depart from the Repub,
lican party. And to prevent this, they will
trample the Constitution, right and justice
under foot. - Statesman.

Talkingas only lovers talk,
Sweet, foolish trifles, loves delight
With JOY and faith their faces bright.
Somctlmes she stops and plucks a rose,
To hide the blush her sweet cheek shows
scattering the rose leaves IN the air,
A dainty shower o'or face and hair.
With laughing looks she sees them 1y,
Then sudden stops ana Dreathcs a sigh;
For youth and love as soon are gone,
Ana death ana age are fastening on.
He gathers from the garden plot,
a TUT Of pale forget tfnc-nOt;
She takes them with a careless Jest,
Then hides them in her snowy breast.
He lays q rosebud in her hair,
Whispering she is wond'rous fair;
While tenderly his loving hands
Linger Ger the ripping bands.
They pause to watch the evening sky,
And see the golden sunlight die.
a squirrel started from its lair
Breaks the calm quiet Of the air.
She triflcs with her golden curls
TIL the bright 1ag the wind unfurls,
And blows q tress across his face
Touching his lips with soft embrace.
They reach the great hall. door at last,
He holds her slender fingers fast,
Then kisses them, as well he may,
While she, all blushing, speeds away.
