The Soldiers Dogs.

Not long since dog named "Tou-
ton," came to Paris with regiment OF
Zouaves which had returned from Italy.
The soldiers were all greatly attached to
him, for he had passed safely through a
singular adventure which deprived them
OF all other dogs belonging to the regi-
ment. When the war commenced the
Zouaves embarked for Genoa but as
they were going on board the ship, they
saw formal order forbidding the en-
trance Of all dogs upon the vessel. AS
they were very much attached to their
dogs, they were stricken with grief 1t
was not easy to deceive the sharp look
out kept, for every soldier advanced
along the narrow gangway, one by one,
as his name was called. Necessity is
the mother of invention. The drum
mers unscrewed their drums and the
best dogs of the regiment were conceal
ed in the drums which were screwed up
again. When regiments embark no
music is played, but on this occasion the
Colonel determined there should be mu,
sic. He ordered the trumpets and
drums to take the head of the column,
aud to play lively tune. The face Of
the drummers-every one OF whom had
a dog in his drum-grew very long
The trumpets sounded; the drums were

PROSTITUTION IN New YORK CRY
The daily report Of the "New York House
Of the Fallen" says there are about four
thousand Of the professional dsni-mo',de
in that city, who have no other means OF
support. The number Of girls who work
in the daytime and walk the pave at night,
will fully equal this number. There are
least as many more "mistresses"-in all
about twelve thousand women and girls
belonging to this wre,ched class. The
institution Of the fallen class has reclaimed
seventy-fve during the last seven months.
The loss Of their own self-respect induces
these females to believe that they never
can gain the respect Of others. But lift
them from this slough Of self degradation
show them that an upright life will
bring its proper reward. and then they are
easily restored to paths Of virtue. A
glance at the cause Of the great social evil
appears to be, in a very great degree, want
Of employment BY these women. The re-
port saws: More than one half Of the
demi-monde are driven TO adopt the life by
Christian parents. That is to say, the iron
hand of home rule; the wrong teachings,
the misconception, by parents, Of the char
acter of their children; the deprivations Of
reasonable enjoyment and amusement,
drive young girls to seek a life Of greater
freedom. One quarter more are the VIC
TINS Of men who delight in the ruin Of all
tina, is good. The remainder 10 composed
Of those girls who are compelled to work
in shops and factories for their living.
This latter class is the most difficult to
reclaim. From their lowly life Of toll,
where they are compelled to live in q ten
ement house or howell, with four or five
persons crowded into a small room, poorly
clad. poorly fed. working from ten to
twelve hours a day for q few shillings,
surrounded by drunken and degraded
associations, they step to the elegant man
sion of sin, where they are clad in rich
s,uffs, fed upon all the dainties Of the sea-
son, and have no work TO do their asso-
cia,es comprising the fashionable men Of
the city, who would not have spoken to
the working girl. Institutions for reclaim
ing these unfortunate creatures are spring
ing up all over the country, doing good in
every community where they exist, and
all are fit concerns for the philanthropist
and all benevolent and Christian people,"
