esRuIes Of the Road,

We find the following rules for the
guidance of railroad travellers in some
Of the papers. They are said to be
founded on "legal decisions"
"The courts have decided that pass
engers on railroads can be elected from
the cars if they do not offer the exact
amount of their fare. Conductors are
not bound to make change. All rail
road tickets are good till used; condi-
tions, good for this day only or other
limiting time of genuineness, are of no
account. Passengers who lose their
tickets can be elected from the cars
unless they purchase others. Passen-
gers are bound to observe decorum in
the cars, and obliged to comply with
all reasonable demands to show their
tickets. Standing on the platform or
otherwise violating the rules of the
company renders a person liable to be
put off the train. No person has a
right to monopolize more seats than he
pays for; and any article left in the
seat while the owner is temporarily
absent, entities him to his seat on his
return"
Could not two or three more articles
be added to this code? For instance,
it might be laid down that peanuts
must not be eaten in the cars; that in
the winter men should not spit on the
stove; and that ladies who fill up a
spare seat with bundles, and look on
while gentlemen wander about in search
of seats, may be Kissed.

ADream FuIflIIed.

A man by the name of Joe Williams
had told dream to many of bis fellow
soldiers, some Of whom related it to me,
months previous to the occurrence,
which ! now relate:
He dreamed that we crossed a river,
marched over mountain, and camped
near a church, located in wood, near
which terrible battle ensued, and, in a
charge just as We crossed the ravine, he
was shot in the breast On the ever
memorable 7th Of December, 1862, as
we moved at double quick to take our
place in the line Of battle, then already
hotly engaged, We passed Prairie Grove
Church, a small building belonging to
the Cumberland Presbyterians, I WAS
riding on the flank of my command,
and opposite to Williams as vs came
IN view Of the house. "This is the
church, Colonel, I saw in my dream, y
said be. / made no reply, and never
thought Of the matter again until in the
evening we had broken the eEamy's
line, and were in full pursuit when we
came upon a dry rsvins in the wood,
and Williams said: "Just on the
other side of the hollow l was shot in
my dream, and I will stick my hat
under my shirt. Suiting the action
to the word, as he ran along, he doubled

RELIGION.

There is no man in the world, who
believes he has a soul, but what has a
religion Of some kind; a faith that ex-
tends beyond the grave aud dweIls upon
futurity. It is the only selfish, narrow
minded, stinted fool who believes he
viii die as the brute dies, and that
death is the end of all things, who has
no religion. It would be Of no use to
him whatever. Hence he SCOTS al it,
insults those who profess to believe in
it, and glories in bis own shame.
1t is well for humanity that the class
of persons without religion is exceed
iugly small. Fit were otherwise there
would be no safety among us. Crime
in its darkest and most hideous form,
would take the place of virtue and re-
spect for the law. Love, friendship,
honor and all the finer and nobler emo
tious of the heart, would give place to
brutality and all its accompanying at
tendants and cruelty. Who would then
dare to call man his neigbbor OF his
friend Even the active principle of
animal instinct could not influence our
race. There wonld be no God in the
worlds estimation, and there would be
no one to thank, no one to pray to and
no one to worship.

Chase for Grant.

The following dispatch from Wash
ington to the Cleveland Leader states
the position of Mr. Chase:
Chief Justice Chase expresses him
self freely to his friends concerning the
political situation. He feels entirely
confident of Grants election, and not
only this, but says further that he will
be President for eight years if he de-
sires it, for he viii be cautious, will
bring good men round him, will make
no serious blunders, aud that his inilu-
ence upon the Republican party will be
to consolidate it. On the other hand
Mr.. Chase says that in his judgment
the Democratic party will be hopeless
ly divided by the fact that it has fully
identified itself with the rebels and
rebel IDEAS and this will surely drive
off large numbers of northern Demo-
Gratis and leave the party powerless
against the Republicans.

Mr.. A. 7. Stewart of New York, a
"Bloated bondholder," should be thank
full to the gentleman who framed the
fourth demand in the Democratic plat
form. His income tax for 1865 amount
ed to a trife more than the total
amount paid by people of ten States
and four Territories. He paid SI97,-
900 more than was paid by all the
people of New Hampshire, S95, 900
more than was paid 6y the people of
Maine, and half as much more as was
paid by the people Of Michigan. Out
of the thirty-six millions Of people in
the United States the statement of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue for
the year 1887 shows that but 24O,I34
returned incomes. Out Of this number
6S,0s5 returned incomes of $50 or less,
and 42,947 under $50, leaving I34, IO2
to pay the bulk of $I4,0OO,OOO. A
rigid enforcement Of the fourth demand
of the Democratic Platform for the
taxation of "every description of prop
erty " viii "equahze" " the tax in such
a manner as to compel the poorest
man to contribute his share Of taxes,
thereby relieving the 124, 1O2 wealthy

In adapting the dress to the shape
and size of the weareF, a certain,
knowledge of drawing, and of the
proper proportions of the figure is, of
course, the chief help. There are,
however, a few we'll ascertained rules
which may safely be taught One for
instance is that transverse shapes gen
orally tend to lessen height and in
crease breadth, while longitudsl forms
have the opposite effect Another
welLknown rule (which 1 believe is
easily explained by reference to
optical science) is the tendency of
light colors to increase the apparent
size, and vice versa. People of more
than average size should be cautious
about wearing white or very light
colors for this reason, although it must
always be remembered that proportion
and color impress the eye so much
more sansibly than the mere scale that
this rule is very subordinate one,
and only to be applied after those more
important subjects have been thorough
Iy considered. 1t shonld however be
remembered that more than the aver
age size naturally involves a
certain degree of conspicuousness
which makes any peculiarity Of dress
doubIy undesirable in such cases. A
small person may wear with impunity
both colors and shapes which would be
inexcusably striking on a large figure.
Nothing goes so far to redeem unusual
size as complete repose both in form
and color. Much triming, loose ends
and streamers, frills, furbelows, and
of all kinds are apt to become
when magnifed, while on a
small scale thev may please, by a GER
tain futtering airiness which is in
keeping with the impression of a tiny
creature. But here also proportion
may almost reverse the effect of scale.
A short heavy figure may even more
imperatively need quietness in dress
than one Of twice its actual volume
which has rnn up into slenderness.
And this naturally leads me to the
second respect in which dress should |
be adapted to the wearer, namely,
which indeed, is scarcely |
separable from the form on which it is
and according to which
such questions as the last should mainly !
be decided CorabW Magazine,

Mr.. "Bnck" Pomeroy has one good
quality-he is frank, outspoken; he
does not conceal his sentiments, or
likes and dislikes. The other day, it
is reported, be engaged hand-organ
grinder to come daily to his newspaper
office, and there play the tune Of
"Dixie's Land" The music delighted
the children, and the sauciness Of the
act amused the general public, who
laughed at the odd eonceit Of q rank
rebel causing this rebel air to be
played on the streets Of New York.
But yesterday some wag hired another
hand organ man to station himself near
by, and play with equal industry
another well-known air: 'Sherman's
March to the Sea-" The San reports
"The effect upon the crowd, which
now rapidly increased in numbers, was
electrical. They perceived the joke
and enjoyed it hugely. Cheers went
up for Sherman, and the pennies few
all over the player and his instrument.
The day wore on, but Sherman still
kept marching; Icrestfallen Dixie
disappeared. Night closed upon the
Union man with seven hundred cents
weighing down his breeches pockets
besides the greenbacks of his hire.
jolly ne flung his instrument upon his
shoulder, and as he went his way
assured the crowd who
cheered him, q come again tomorrow
wis one odder barrel, and l play all
day, John Browns body lies mOulder-

ing on"
We trust Mr. PomeroY will not lose

got the best of hiru.

story About Animal InteIll-
genCe.

A gentleman residing in one Of our
rural villages had a pony, a lively,
docile and very active animal, whose
principal service was TO carry his mis-
tress out riding every fine day, her
uncle, the gentleman, riding his horse.
In their rides they had to pass a farm
house, Just over the bridge where was
kept 8 surly dog which habitually
jumped over the fence, and barke1 at
them and worried the horses, and par
ticularly the pony, attempting to bite
his hind legs and causing him to wheel
about and squirm about 10 face the dog
and save his heels.
One day the owner of the dog was
spoken to, and requested to keep his
dog inside Of the fence, and prevent
him worrying the horses.
He replied; His dog had as good
right on the road as any other puppy,
and he should not tie him up
"Tben," said the uncle, " ri shoot
your dog the next time he flies out at
US in this way" and so he left.
When they got home, and the sad
die and bride we're taken of the pony,
he slipped away from the hostleF, and
run up to the house where Bruno, a
large Newfoundland dog, was lying on
the mat in front Of the piazza. They
met; pony put his head down TO
Bruno's, and he raised his head as
though he was listening.
s" There, look at the dog and pony"
said the uncle; what under the sun
are they at They act as though they
were taking"
They let them alone till they got
through, and pony ran about the lawn
and would not be caught, and Bruno
laid down again as before.
Next day they rode again, prepared
to shoot the cur, or scare him from his
evil practice A short distance from
the house, on turning an angle of the
road, they looked back and spied Bruno
quietly following them.
"This won't do" said uncle. +" Go
back Bruno; you know there is nobody
at home but your mistress, and who'll
guard the house when you are awsy
Go back"
The dog turned and jumped over
the ferce as though to 90 home across
the lots. So they rode on until the
farm house appeared in sight Ont
came the cur; uncle prepared to shoot,
when all of a sudden over came Bruno,
seized the cur by the neck, shook him
severely, and made him yell like fun,
so much so that the family came out to
the rescue, while pony looked on,
evidently with as much delight as a
child would at play.
He paved the ground, shook and
bowed his head and was very active in
securing a good view of the fight.
By and By Bruno let 60, and the cur
snesked into the house, and Bruno
gaIloped off home, after exchanging
some words, or rather rubbing noses
with pony.
When they all got home again the
animals had another conference, and a
fine gallop about the lawn, much to the
applause and merriment Of uncle and
the family.
