A test case, in which the whole Of tho State
Of Michigan is interested, is TO be argued before
the Supreme Court at Lansing. A colOrcd man
affirns that having applied at public school
to be taught, he has been refused Therefore.
through his attorney, he petitions for a man
damus against bis District School Board to
compel the admission OF colored people into
the public schools. It appears that the
School Board has ordered the institution
of school for cOlOrcd people. but this school
is in no respect as good as the white one, and
hence the persistence Of the petitioner for equal
rights. Ex-Gov. Austin Blair is enlisted in his
behalf, and whatever may be the issue Of the
case its hearing viii show progress Of some
kind.

BY an advertisement published in this morn
ing's TRIBUNE our readers will see that the
differences between the NewYOrk Central and
the Hudson River and Harlem Railroads have
been composed, and that passengers and freight
are now transported over the three routes
under the Same arrangements as of old. This
is no doubt the result of the vigorous action
of the Legislature. We trust that the present
settlement will not induce the Senate and As
sembly to relax their efforts to secure us pro-
lection against the arbitrary cXactiOns of rail
way corporations. The quarrel which Is ar
ranged to-day may break out again tomorrow,
and the public must not be exposed to suffer
from the ayaricc or bad temper of companies
which ought pot to exist, except with regard
to the public convenience.

husbands, before leaving home. ask very
tenderly. what would yon like for dinner

will select something for his particular
palate, and so of he goes. Some hus.
bands will leave home without saying Q

by their turning round at the last point

Thcn, on retiring, some husbands come

husbands doze in speechless stupidity or

curious to learn of their wives what ha;

HOME AFTER BUSINESS HoURs.-The
road along which the man of business
travels in pursuit of wealth or competence
is not a Macadamised one, nor does it or.
dinarily lead through pleasant scenes and
by weltsprings of delight. On the con-
trary, it is rough and rugged path. be-
set with ''wait-a.bit" thorns, and full of
pitfalls, which can only be avoided by
the watchful care of cIrcumspection. Az
ter every days journey over this worse
than rough turnpike road. the wayfarcr
needs something more than rest; he re.
quires solace, and he deserves it. lie is
weary Of the dull prose Of life, and athirst
for the poetry. Happy is the man who
can find that solace and that people at
home. Warm greetings from loving
hearts, fond gIances from bright eyes,
and welcome shouts of children, the many
thousand little arrangements for comfort
and enjoyment that silently tell of though.
ful and cxpectant love, the gentle minis
trations that disencumber us into an old
an easy chair before we are aware of it
these and like tokens of affection and sym
pathy constitute the poetry which recon-
Giles US to the prose of life. Think of
this, ye wives and daughters of business
men Think of the tolls, the anxieties,
the modification and wear that fathers
undergo to secure for you comfortable
homes, and compensate them for their
trials by making them happy by their
own fresides.

GRAPES ON ELMs.-At the winter
meeting of the Illinois State Horticultural
Society, the Hon. John B. Turner, sue
cessful grape grower, during discussion
on the grape, advocated the growing Of
grapes on elms. He said:
ssWhen. years ago, / taught Latin to
boys we used to read of the ancients let
ting their grape vines grow On elms, but
/ thought little of the statement as prac-
E,ical suggestion. But I find that I can
not keep my vines out of the elms. fl
plant near an elm the vine grows into it.
I have one vine that, despite my remon-
strances, insists in going into the top OF
one of my elms. From it sold, during
the past year, 800 worth of grapes. !
am therefore tolerably we'll satisfied with
its wilfulness; for thesc grapes did not
cost me cent for culture or care. 1 am
now planting live stakes in my orchard
and elm stakes they are. Such stakes
will save the annual cost Of training and
pruning. and judging Of my experiences,
they will insure fruitfulness.a
