Washington, belonging to the State of Louisi-
ana, and which was removed from Baton
Rouge to Washington by the Federal forces
during the war, has been restored to the State,
and arrived in this city by express day before
yesterday. The credit of this restoration is
due in great measure to the untiring efforts
of Senator Kellogg.

The mad Bridal.

What would you do, nv dear one said
What would you do If were dead!
il Death should humble, as he list,
These red lips which now you kist
What would my love do were | wed
To that CHASTITY groom instead;
If DER me, in the chancel. Death
Should cast his smaranthine wreath
Before my eyes, with fingers pale,
Draw down the mouldy bridal veil?
All no mol it cannot bel
Death would spare their light, and fee,
And leave my love to Life and me

The OPELoUsAs RAnRoAD.-A new phase
has recently been given to this suit. Our
readers will remember that Messrs Tucker and
Conant applied to the United States District
Court to declare the company a bankrupt.
The case was argued, and is now before
Judge Durell. But few days ago, Mr.. W.
S. Pike petitioned the court to set aside the
claims of Messrs. Tucker and Conant, alleg-
ing that he, large coupon and bondholder,
and creditor of the company, is willing to
satisfy in full any claims that Messrs Tucker
and Conant may have against the company.
During the progress of the trial. our readers
viii remember similar offer was made by the
road, but was decided by Judge Duren as not
to be sufficient to stop proceedings. But it is
contended that the offer from creditor is
another thing, and should be accepted by the
suing debtors. The petition of Mr.Pike is
now before Judge Durell.

Garden Work for Women,

We novor took pleasure in SEQ
ing women work on u farm-mak
ing fence, covering corn, plowing
and 30 forth. We are opposed 10
all such business. At tho same
time IL is not to be denied that
there are thousands Of women in
the land who are suffering and dy.
ing from too much indoor confine.
ment, and who would be vastly
benefited by doing outdoor work
To all such, we say, work in the
garden. The garden is your field
Cultivate flowers, vegetables and
fruit, and don't be afraid Of tho
hoe and the rake and even the
spade. Working in tho garden
would better the health and pre-.
servo the lives Of thousands OF
pale.faced women. The sunlight,
the fresh air and proper exercise
are better than all the paints that
were ever invented TO give color to
the cheek. - Countryman.

sheer folly. The best plan is to

through and through. This will
do the work thoroughly aud If the
ground is we'll drained, this with
good cultivation will insure good
health to tho vines Grape roots

WHY BOILERS SOMETIMES EXPLoDE.-
The Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection
Company publish n startling summary Of
the inspections of boilers made by them
during last month. The report throws
light on the causes of boiler explosions
and seems To give ground for the belief
that some method of prevention might be
contrived and carried out.
One hundred and cighty-two visits OF
inspection were made, 81 boilers exams
iaed externally, 20 internally, 3 tested by
hydraulic pressure. In these boilers lGS
defects were discovered, 30 being sources
of special danger. Among them were
furnaces ont Of shape, l3 lractures-3
dangerous, 6 burned plates "a blistercd-
7 dangerous, 81 cases of incrustation, sc,
Que boiler was blistcrcd so that the In
specior pushed his finger through the shell,
after cutting off the blister One
boiler was so badly burnt, blstered,
cracked, &c, as to give entirely under
pressure.
