HORsECAR lNFLUENCKS.-Tho Following Is nom
Q New York paper:
The horse car is moulding society anew. It has
already effected two or three reforms which
decade Of barbarian could not have brought
about. First, il has abolished great deal OF the
us eless, old.time courtesy Of travellers that was
manifested In Difference TO women, and civility
TO strangers. Etiquette Is not generally strictly
held TO in moments Of extremity and peril. And
the moments of horse car travel are now conceded
to be both. Ten years ago no American could
retain comfortable seat IN public conveyance
without unfinished cheek while woman was
standing. The horse.cars have stopped oil that,
possibly with the connivance Of the women them
selves In ell the traditions Of the historic stage
coach rich % they are with pleasant associations
and the old humanities, We ind no accounts OF the
ravening rush for corner seats, the horrible Joste
and jam of selfshness, and the boisterons self
assertion of men fighting for transit. There Is
another way in which the horse-csr u affecting
society. 1t is educating several thousand men In
its employ to deal with their fellow men - though
they were merchandise. 1t retains an army OF III
paid and incompetent attaches who do nothing
for the community but collect its pennies. The
truth is the horsecsr, adequate - 1t 10 to ordinary
pleasure travel In uncrowded districts, and mop
eratve for evil as Il ia In the condition Of metro
politan life where II belongs, b In our congested
city a curse Of inadsquscy: not only hsnpsring
deade ming the finer qualities Of its heart; and We
get there q very nice illustration OF me moral
effects of physical incompetency. A writer In
Putnsms Magazine apty compares the means
used to accommodate the intra-mural travel OF the
city to the attempt TO cart the entire water supply
TO town In barrels from the Creton river, and
hazards the reasonable prophecy that the Pacific
railroad win be completed across the continent,
and New York made the gateway OF the whole
world before legislative wisdom and enterprise
viii come TO our entire relief.

The LATE DUCHESS OF SUTHKRLAND.-One IN
stance of her thoughtfulness ID worth mentioning
here. In o party that arrived at Donrobin Castle
one evening were two young American girls, who
never had been in society In their own country.
As the party arrived late they were not dressed In
season, when the brilliant dinner company assem-
bled in the drawing-roo previous to passing out
TO the dinner table. The duchess, however, at.
tended these guests TO their rooms and saw to their
comfort, and approaching the natural diftdence
Of young persons, she babe them not to give
after them in time for dinner. After . little
while, instead Of sending . servant TO convey
them to the drswingroum, she came herself TO
their apartments, and said, graciously: II hope
have not kept you waiting and taking hand
of each, with motherly tenderness, she led them
with her into the drawing-room.
On another occasion an American lady was
riding ont with her. and seemed particularly struck
with The variety and beauty Of the heather, which
fringed the path, and made many inquiries
about il.
On returning from the drive, while this lady
was dressing for dinner, q basket was brought TO
her apartment In which every species OF heatner
known in Scotland was represented-each kind
pame That evening the aoral ornaments Of the
dinner table were all Of hesther-the center.piece
being q beautiful ststuette Of Highland Mary
and the duchess wore heather for her headsdress
saying 10 her friend: ." You see what pleasure II
gives us Scotch people to have our native produc.
tons appreciated" A service OF china was used
on the dinner.table, on which heather was ex
quisiteylpainted. This could not, of course. have
been got up to order, and its existence among the
repositories Of the castle showed that the duchess
must have appreciated the flower long before.

Very True.

These words deserve to be chiseled
in marble, and to be immovabiy fixed al
every street corner in Woodsfcld:
One of the means by which VIC may
build up town and bring prosperity to
our country generally, is for every one
to patronize home institutions, especial.
ly in articles that are manufactured here.
Keep the money in the town is the way
to make it rich, and every man that sends
away for work he can just as easily get
done here, deprives the town OF just that
much wealth and discouragcs enterprise.
