BE A WOMAN.
Oft Pve heard gentle mother,
AS the twilight hours began,
Pleading with a son on duty,
Urging him to be man.
But unto her blue-eyed daughter,
Though with loves words quite as ready,
Points she out the other duty
Strive, my DEAR to be lady,"
What's lady? Is it something
Made of hoops, and silks, and airs,
Used to decorate the parlor,
Like the fancy rings and chairs?
Is 1t one that wastes on novels
Every feeling that is human?
If tits this to be a lady,
IT'S not this to be a woman
Mother, then, unto your daughter
Speak of something higher far
Than to be mere fashions lady
Woman" is the brightest star.
If you, in your strong affection,
Urge your son to be true man,
Urge your daughter no less strongly
To arise and be woman.
Yes, woman brightest model
Of that high and perfect beauty,
Where the mind and soul and body
Blend to work out life's great duty.
BE woman! naught is higher
On the gilded crest of fame;
On the catalogue of virtue
There's no brighter, holier name.
Be a woman on to duty
Raise the world from all that's low,
Place high in the social heaven
Virtues fair and radiant bow.
Lend thy influence to each effort
That shall raise our nature human;
Be not fashions gilded lady
Be brave, whole-souled, true woman.

TIE POST OFFICE.
Inc Canadians have hopes of extensive and
beneficial changes under the new Postmaster
General. They want an extension Of the
money order system, and 1t Is suggested that
the government should issue ungummed pos
tage stamps OF various denominations to
serve as fractional currency, to be redeem
ed at the Government Bank In sums of S5 Oh
upwards. Canada greatly needs fractional
currency that can be transmitted through the
post t-office.
CASE OF THE PRoPELLER, HAZE.
An alteration took place at Quebec one
day last week between an officer Of Fl. M j.
gunboat Aurora, and the commander Of the
American propeller Haze, which is variously
reported. One account says the officer of
the Aurora ordered the commander of the
Haze to haul down his flag which the latter
flatly refused to do. Another statement 10
that the officer of the Haze refused to salute
the Aurora, or was guilty of some other
breach of maratime etiquette. Arriving at
Montreal the Haze refused to salute the VOL
VERNE, and was detained at that port waiting
for permission from the government to pro-
ceed on her way. Commodore Harwood was
said to be on board the Haze.
