JEFFERSON On THE CONSTITUTIONS
The new Life Of Josiah Quincy,
written by his son, contains the fol
lowing extract from a letter Of Thos.
Jefferson, which will surprise many
who have pinned their faith to the
" strict construction" creed ascribed
to him. He is speaking of the pur-
chase of Louisiana
The less that is said about the
Constitution difficulty, the better
Congress should d what is necessa-
ry in silence. | find but one opinion
as to the necessity of shutting up the
Constitution for some time"
This sounds very much like Thad-
deus Stevens declaration that the
work of the re-organizing the States
diSmantled by the rebellion is out
side OF the Constitution. At any
rate, it shows that Jefferson discrim-
mated between the ordinary admins
tration Of the government and great
unforeseen national crises.

Senator Sherman of Ohio, who's

Senator Sherman Of Ohio, whose
conversative tendencies are we'll
known, said in his speech at Cincin-
natl:
i, perhaps, am disposed to take a
darker and more gloomy view of the
Presidents position than some others.
But do say to you that there is good
reason to believe that the President
of the United States contemplates
even more than he has yet done. If
you pick up the papers that support
the Presidents policy, what are they
filled with? Threats against Con-
gress as rump Congress, and about
dispensing Congress. Who is Con
gress i? Who are these Senators and
Representatives Nothing but your
agents, sent to do your will, and to
disperse them is to disperse you; to
deprive them of the power to make
laws is to overthrow your power to
make laws, and let me tell the Pres
ident that whenever he attempts to
do that, al d to run a tilt against you
or your agents he will run against
live thunder. (Great applause.

Mark Twain in Italy.

Mark Twain. the California hu-
morist, who accompanied the Quaker
City excurSioniSts, went ashore at
Civita Vecchia, to take little tour in
the pope's dominions and thus de-
scribeS what he saw aud experienced,
in a letter to the Tribune:
This is the yilest nest of dirt,
vermin, and ignorance we have got
into yet, except that African perdi-
tion they call Tangier, which is just
like it. The people here live in al
leyS two yards wide. 1t is lucky the
alleys are not wider, because they
hold as much smell now as a person
can stand, and of course, if they were
wider, they would hold more, and
then the people would die. These
alleys are paved with stone, and car
peted with sluSh, and decayed rags,
and decomposed vegetable tops, and
remnants Of old boots, all soaked
with diShwater, and the people sit
around on stools and enjoy it. They
are indolent, as a general thing, and
yet have pastimes. They work two
or three hours at a time, but not
hard, and then they knock off and
catch feas. This does not require
talent, because they only have to grab
If they don't get the one they are
after, they get another. 1t is all the
same to them. They are not parti-
cular. They have no partialitieS.-
Whichever one they get is the one
they want. They have other kinds
Of insects, but it does not make them
arrogant. They are very quiet, un-
pretending people. They have more
OF this kind of things than other com
mulities, but they do not brag. They
are very uncleanly, these people, in
face. III person, and dress. When
they see anybody with a clean shirt
on, it arouseS their Scorn. The wo-
men wash clothes half the day at the
public fountains, but they are proba-
bly, somebody elso's; or, may be-
they keep one suit to wear and anoth-
er to wash, because they never wear
one that has ever been washed
When they get done washing, they sit
in the alleys and nurse their cubs
All the women in Civita y ccchia nave
families. They nurse one at time
and the others scratch their backs
against the door-posts and are hap
py. All the people scratch. 1t Is
their delight. There is a rusty shrine
here and there along the streets
where the people can watch and pray
but they don't do that; they scratch
and pray. They like it better. Al
this country is presided over by the
pope. They DO not appear to have
any schools, and only one billiar,
table. Their education is at yer,

90 into the military, another into the
priesthood, a third into the shoemak
ing business, and the balance "lay

is not whit more enlightened than
the papacy, whatever malignant vii
Iians may say to the contrary.

FALL FAsHIoNs.-It will be graft
flying to ladies to learn that cloaks
will be worn much longer this season
than last winters styles foreboded.
This is very sensible improvement
for our climate. Embroidery will be
a great feature On cloaks, and the
rage for all kinds Of trimming contin-
ues unaDated. Cloaks are now more
of the loose fitting style, and there is
a decided tendency toward the close
sleeve. Many Of the imported cloaks
are plain, not pointed, and approach
the circular form. The leading colors
in cloaks this fall are black, brown
and purple.
The coquettish Fanchon and other
summer varieties of bonnets have
given place to stately and elegant
chapeaus, the distinguishing feature
of which is the diadem. This is a
very attractive addition to bonnet
and can be adapted to any style of
face
There is very little change in dres.
ses either as regards shape or materi
al. The new red-brown Bismark will
be probably the favorite color this
fall. The skirts will be of course
short for the streets, and as long as
trails can be made for visiting and
ceremonious occasions.

PARLoR MAGIC.-IHe String Trick.
This is very simple, still great many
people can't see through it.
Take four pieces Of fine string, Of
equal length, each having two ends.
Tie knots on the left ends, and weave
them spirally through opposite loops,
catching the Intervening ones over
the upper portion and bringing di-
agonally between. Now, shift your
hand, catching the space outside the
loops upon the right hand joint, cast
ing it off at the proper moment, and
bringing the thumbs in the former di-
rection. The trick is done.
1t possesses two singular peculiar
tiles. First nobody can ever do it
twice and second that nobody can do
it once.

For the Standard.
The First Falling Leaf.
BY LEILA LYNDON.

And so it fell, that trembling leaf.
Sad herald of dying year,
Its little life, alas how brief,
How quickly faded now, and sere.
And so twas gone-a moment still
1t fingered on the autumn wind,
Then fioated slowly down the rill-
And left its tracery not behind.
All, such, methought, is human life,
A little while we bloom in JOY.
Then turn we from the varying strife,
And deaths dark waves our plans destroy.
And yet, unlike the falling leaf,
We leave an impress on the soul
Of man, nor is it light or brief,
But twill endure while ages roll.
Oh, let this influence be for right,
Be high, and holy, noble, pure,
Dispelling errors darksome night,
Awakening joys that e'er endure.

Three years ago a little girl five
years old, in Fall River, pushed but
ton up her nose, where it remained,
and has since been constant source
of pain. On Tuesday night, after
annoying the girl three years, the but
ton came out of the nostril, greatly
to the relief OF the girl and her par
ents, who had doubted about its being
there. ~ gasg

Falling from Grace.

A good story is told of a certain
Methodist domiaie Of the pioneer
stamp. The dominic had in some
way occaSioned the displeasure of
one of his members-Of those touchv,
ira8cible saints of which nearly every
particular charge" or circuit" has
one Or more representatives. The
dominic had tried every way to effect
/ a reconciliation. He had wrestled
with the Lord" in the erring broth
er'S behalf He had labored person
ally with him, earnestly, but all to no
purpose; so he expelled him as a mat
ter Of duty. The ex-brother then
took every occasion to insult and
wound the feelings Of the pastor He
slandered him, abused him to his face
and behind his back until the poor
dominic could stand it no longer. Meet
/ ing him one day in the poSt-ofice,
where a large crowd was collected,
as usual, the wretch commenced his
abuse. The dominic, as he was leav-
ing the room, made some remark, to
which the discovered member respond
ed, "That's a d lie. Quick as
thought the dominic turned, divested
himself of all unnecessary apparel,
and stepping up to his astonished
enemy, and siezing him by the throat,
gave vent to his long peut up feelings
as follows: Don't venture to re
peat the word again, YOU. low, dirty

long as possibly can. | try to be
