LONDON, July s.-The Times to-day
observes that the spirit in which the
House Of Commons lately discussed tue
Trades Union bill speaks volumes tor
the exact. impartial and exhaustive in.
quiry into the subject. The increased
attention to the matter is not the erect
of pressure by the Trades Union leaders
on the Legislature, but is due 70 a
greater knowledge aud wider experience
of the members. Although the bill is
no, likelyto pass, the principles it con
tsins viii form the basis for Gov.
srnment measures to be introduced at
the next session, which will repeal all
laws making combinations illegal, and
relieve uorkmen from special penalties
for Trades Union %offcnses, and bring
their funds within the provisions of the
Friendly Societies Act. The Times, In
conclusion says Trades Unions will con.
,iuue to exist whether protected by
Parliament or not. True craftsmanship
will seek neither TO augment mol reduce
their influence, but accepting them as =
fact will give them free scope for Legis'
lative development.

tbs progressive women Of the day
are rapidly assuming an aggressive atti-
tude toward wha, is used to be called
"the stronger sex,' and man must ex-
pee, to place himselfupon the defensive.
A lively writer in the Rseo!atioa argues
that Men cannot keep u secret" in
the following piquant and ingenious
strain
Men say can't keep q secret. II
il inst the reverse-women can, men
can't. Women carry with them 10
their graves secrets tina, would kill any
man. Woman never tells maj always
does. Woman suffers and dies man
blabs aud lives. Men cannot keep 4
secret; women cauuot max. it known.
What is sport TO man is death TO woman.
Adam was q sneak. Eve would have
kept the apple secret Who ever hoard
q woman talk about her love fiascoes?
Everybody has heard IL man gossip.
Maa delight, in telling of his Illicit
~conquests ; woman would cut out her
tongue first. Men are coarse in their
cIub-room talk women refined in their
parior conversation. Who ever heard n
tell OF her lovers? Who has not
listened to the dissipation OF the meu
Men boast; women don /. Women
never tell tales out Of school men are
ALWAYS blabbing. So down with another
old adage. Women can Keep a secret.

WsArHER AND HEALTH.--The weather
uuqucstionably has II much greater in.
auencs upon our physical systems than
is commonly supposed. That is to iay,
there are periods of the year when we
are especially liable to i'll health or ply
steal debility. Some arc invariably
" taken down" with the return Of
spring. a languor and lassituds over.
comes them, which, il they yield to H.,
incapacitates them physically and intel
l~ectually for labor. Others are borne
down by the heat of summer, while still
others are peculiarly susceptible to
autumn's changes, or winters chilling
winds. During the past fourteen years
there have been collected and collated II
series of observations illustrative Of the
influence of season or weather upon the
health of tho people Of Scotland. These
facts show that, taking Scotland as a
whole, February is tho month most gen
orally fatal to the population, and Sep.
TENDER the least so that in the six
colder months of February, March,
January, April, December and May, the
deaths average more than 900 per
month-the monthly mortality being
below 1000 in the other six months.
As might be expected, the town popula-
ton are found to be more sensitive to
tho agencies Of the weather than the
more robust jewellers in rural districts,
as is shown both in the earlier hurtful
effect of cold, aud in the earlier bene-
fetal influences of warmth on the health
of the former Of these W classes. That
the first advent of cold weather is much
less prejudicial to health than il, con-
t%inuance for any length Of time, is cor
roboratcd by the observation that
though the mean temperature of Febru-
AIRY /, no higher than that Of January,
the mortality is much higher, the vital
powers being weakened by the sustained
cold. The prevalence OF ~northerly and
essterly winds in Scotland during
March, April and May, superrening on
the cold month of February, accounts
for the fact that March is the second
most unhealthy month In the year.
What is found to be true Of Scotland
will be found to be true Of countries
generally. February and March are un.
qu~estionably the most unhealthy months
of the year almost tho world over, while
September and October days are mos,
conducive to physical buoyancy and OK
hilaration.

SrIMuLANr.-Georgo D. Prentice has
been n constant drinker for forty years.
For ten years he has been n driaker Of
the lignum Vita order. Here is a tenn.
perance lecture by him, worth a score
at least of the Good TOnplar exhorta.
tions and Interpretations
There are times when the pulse lies
low In the bosom and beats low in the
veins; when the spirit sleeps, which, APP
paren,ly, knows no waking, sleeps in its
house of clay, and the windows arc shut,
the doors hung in the invisible Grape Of
melancholy when we wish the golden
sunshine pitchy darkness, and wish to
fancy clouds where no clouds be. This
is a state of sickness when physic may
be thrown to the dogs, for we wish mono
Of it. What shall raise the spirit? What
shall make tho heart beat music again,
and the pulses through all the myriad
thronged halls in the houses of life ?
What shall make the sun kiss the cast
ern hills again for US with all his old
awakening gladncss, and the night over.
Cow with moonlight, love aud flowers?
Love itself is the greatest stimulsns-
the most intoxicating of all, and per.
forms all these miracles, nndis a miracle
itself aud not q drug store, whatever
they say. The counterfeit is in the mar.
ket, but the winged god is not u money
changer, we ssh you. Men have
tried many things, but still they ask FOR
stimulant. Mea try to bury the floating
dead of their own souls in the wine cup,
but the corpses rise. We see their face,
in the bubbles. The intoxication Of
drink sets the world whirliug again, and
the pulses to playing music aud the
thoughts galloping, but the fast clock
runs down sooner, and m unnatural
stimulant only leaves the house it filled
with the widest revelry, more %silcnr,
more sad, more deserted. There is only
one stimulant thnt never intoxicates-
duty. Duty puts a clear sky over every
man, into which the skylark happihe.s
goes singing.

A MODEL GRAND JURY. - Owen
County, Kentucky, can boast a Grand
Jury presentmsnt, the like OF which
has not been heard OF on this Continent
since the days OF the Salem witchcrait
delusion. The Grand Jury Of that
enlightened county actually "pre-
scented" II true bill of witchcr ,ft
agaius; an aged woman, averring that
the dame caused the death Of her
ueighbors' cattle by the baleful infu-
ence of the "erii eye" and that she
still further brought TO untimely graves
q number OF men and women by
bewitchinS the waters Of the wells
from which they drank. 1t is to be
hoped that an intelligent petit jury will
not follow in the wake Of these be.
nightod Grand Jurors, and save the
innocent old lady from my incOnrsn-
fences that might result, from the extra
ordinary findings Of the Grand Inquest
Of Owen County. This affair would be
laughable, if it did not afford mel
ancholy aud irrefutable proof that the
ignorance OF the mi1dle ages has not
yet been entirely dispelled by the
schoolmaster and printing press.
These s,eadEast allies Of common
sense, friends Of religion and dis
s~eminators Of Intelligence are badly
needed in Kentucky. 10 his charge to
his next Grand Jury, the Judge of the
County Cour, of Owen viii please bear
in mind these gres, wants, aud instruct
accordingly.
