A Dawn View of q Railroad
Car.

Night passengers will appreciate the
following admirable sketch of the in
terror of q car at day-break:
Long before we hear the roar OF the
wheels we see the glimmer of glow
ing light. Brighter and broader 1t
opens, like the cyclopean unwinking
eve it is, the head light of the train.
Then the steady jar, then the mingled
clank as of a thousand shaken chains
and the cars are here. '.An aboard"
and '.all right" follows each other IN
rapid succession, and we are breathing
the close and heavy air of dormitory.
The car lamps have gone out dlsgusted,
the little wakefulness of the sleepers
has subsidized and the dim snoring out.
lineof cloaks and shawls, and the frigh-
tened looking heads, hecked hers and
there, like troubled sea, with white,
compsoe the landscape; while over all,
ike pendulums swing plethoric carpet
bags slowly to and fro, and little sach
els brisk as mantle clocks, and bonnets
made of nothing, dance up and down
like blossoms in the rainfall timed to
the motion of the train. But the dim
eray Turns to an old-eyed white, and
The breathing bundles begin to stir
out of an egg-shaped bundle is hatched
q woman, with looks dIsheyelled, like
Venus from the sea. A throe or two
and a rough form emerges from cloak
and shawl, and shakes itself awake
A shapeless mass Lurns out man bear
ded like a pard. A pair of boots thrust
out like a bowsprit, go out OF sight as
the owner comes in view. One ls sooth
ing an iritated hat with gentle touches
of the elbow; another pulling at his
wiIted collar. DisoIdeTed tresses are
smoothed with hasty touches OF the
hand. and crumpled sleeves persuaded
into shape. One lady had learned her
lesson from Grimalkin and makes her
toilet exactly like a cat. The cold
clear light of the early morning IS al
ways trying to human beauty there
are no TINS to be borrowed, no softning
shades to be worn; plain, cold stare
that looks one out OF countensnce.
But. in railroad train, the disorder Is
appalling. II face ever looks faded
il IS then; if the hair has any gray 1t
is sure to show; wrinkles are read like
a sign-board, afar of. If there be dis
content In the heart it comes into ths
mouth, and every body looks like pep
ole after a masquerade, or Richard,
after he became himself again"

An old Dutch farmer had q handsome

Joined the Methodist church, against
which the old farmer was somewhat pre-

day night, and seated himself unobserTed
among the Congregation
Soon af.ar taking his seat, the minister,
who vas preaching from Daniel Y. %. re-
peated in a loud voice the words Of his
text, "Msne, meme, tekel, upharsin," upon
which the old farmer sprang to MS iees

hurried her out Of the meeting house
Having reached the churchyard, be gave

EatIng Without Hunger.

This is a very foolish and iniurious
nabit, one which almost every one Is more
or less subject 10. Hunger is the signal
which nature gives to indicate the neces.
sity for q supply Of food. When the sys-
tsm requires food and is in a condition to
make good use Of it, it will call FOR it in
lis legitimate way. There are some ex-
eeptions TO this rule in certain diseased
conditions, but they are very few. The
digestive organs are in the very best pos-
sible condition for digesting food when the
sensation of hunger exists, and they can
then do It far more easily, thoroughly,
quickly and with less effort than At any
other time. Most people pay little atten-
Ton to this 4; they are SIRE TO eat whenever
hey are hungry, If it Is so that they can,
and they are Just about as apt TO when
they are not, if it is convenient for them
70 do so or they chance to see anything
which " tickle tnsir palate" Especially
is this rule--neVer eat uuless you afe hur-
yry-YiOlated in sickness. In aeeute dis
| turbanees Of the eystem the sensation oe
hunger is never manifested for the simplf
reason that the system does not require
food. If food is eaten at such times, as 1t
usually is, for everybody thinks the pa

reparative process termed disease, are call
ed from the work upon which they are

is that the reparative process is partially

The Seal of Iron.

Zone morning in the month of Feb
ruary, 1865, a detachment of troops
from Sherman's army were at work
breaking railroad. This great host of
lighters and msrchers had left the city
of Savannah behind them, a gift of con
quest to the nation. With giant
strength, with noble endurance, with
wopderous patience, they had struggled
waist deep through swamps which had
been deemed impossible, they had
built thousands of bridges, they had
sWum the treacherous streams, always
in the face and FIRE of desperate foe.
They were we'll used to bending and
twisting these strips of iron, destroying
these great arteries of the life of the re-
beliion. They had left their mark all
the way from Vicksburg, through Mem
phis across the mountains, over the
hills and pllins of Georgia, and now in
the uplands of South Carolina, they
had reached the great heart of the sys-
tenn, and the heart of .disloyalty as
we'll, where the great highways of trade
and treason met and separated to their
farthest bound. 1t was q still, sun
shiny morning, of Sabbath quiet, that
of whichI write. Far away to the west
the railroad track ran to point, and
was lost to the horizons edge. All
along the way was marked by light
columns of smoke, which lazily lifted
themselves into the misty cir. About
these swarmed thousands Of men feed
ing the fame. or bending the heated
iron into strange fantastic shapes, as
their fancy or accident might direct.
In the foreground OF thisscene there
was enacted one of those solemn dra-
matte incidents which symbolized q na-
tion's history, wherein the actors, i'm
pressed with one present, all-powerful
idea, unconsciously become prophets as
well. Deft of hand and earnest of will,
party of Workmen soldiers fastened
the white-heated rails into the two let
ters U. S. With many q shout and
stern exclamation the earth was exca-
waited at the exact point OF center of
the great crossroads. A massive frame
work of solid pine soon filed the cavi-
ty to the level of the way. To this
foundation, with many : strap and
spike, were fastened the iron letters
symbolic of union, liberty and law; and
when it was all completed, and q. S.
shone in the sun as if they had grown
into the soil, rough, sunburned sol
der of the West raised his weather
stained hat from his broad forehead.
and with something Of sadness, and
more of proud confidence, and yet with
that sublimity of thought which is the
voice of God speaking through the
people, exclaimed There, boys, we've
planted an iron seal right in the center
of the rebellion. These fellows shall
know that The United States govern
ment has been here aud left its mark"
A few months from that day, and
the Confederacy, which for long years
had lifted its naughty front before the
power Of our arms, went crumbling to
the earth, smitten at its founndation, q
hopeless wreck, an eternal ruin. The
iron seal has made a deeper imprint
than the Western soldier hoped or
thought. and it shall go down the COM
ing centuries the signet of the govern
ment of law and the people.
