SCENE IN A BOSTON HORSE CAR.

A real American beauty, such as Bos-
ton can furnish in numbers, enters.
Snobo ogles. His impudent glances are
not noticed; he swings his cane on the
roof of the car, does everything to at
tract her attention, but without success.
Some of the passengers retiring, the
handsome girl draws near the end of
the car which contains the body of the
elegant Snobo. He rises promptly, lifts
his hat, offers his seat; but no, the lady
prefers to stand, and she does so direct
1y in front of him. Snobo is confused,
but still by no means does he lose heart,
for his eyes work zealously in his be-
half, and he twirls the struggling stuff
under his nose, but still the lady seems
not to be by any means attracted to him,
as she looks steadily in advance of her.
Snobo is al last confused. Is she proof
against all attacks? And slowly his
feet project across the car upon the ele-
CANT, natty foot of our Boston belle.
Twice he performed this chivalrous
deed, when cry of pain is heard COM
ing from his corner, while the lady rings
the bell, stops the car and retires, mounts
some stone steps and is at home. Snobo
rolls in his seat uneasily, lifts his nobby
boot to his knee, when sure enough the
cause of the outcry could be detected,
for upon the delicate calf was the i'm
print of the high heel of the belle. He,
too, shortly retired, and up to such re-
tirement Snobo's 'tail was between his
legs" When the time came he hobbled
to the sidewalk, never once turning to
meet the gaze of the many ladies who
were wasting their scornful looks upon
him. And when he had gone the car
was filed with the clatter which the
same indignant ladies caused in express
ing their contempt for "Monsieur Sno-
bo."-BostOn Times.

EATING TOO MUCH.-Iti is related of q
Roman ruler, that after eating a hearty
meal he would take an emetic in order
to eat another. This, perhaps, is seek
for a pleasure at dearer rate than most
people are inclined to indulge in: vet
the principle of the thing exists in more
people than we are disposed at first to
admit. 1t is very common, as warm
weather approaches, to continue our
usual allowance, though there is less
need than during the cold weather; and
we only feel the bad effects after the
stomach has been overtaxed sufficiently
long to cause headache, dizziness, lassi-
tude and general debility. Great yarie-
ties at meals lead to it, because eating a
little of great many things will make
great deal in the end, and thus we of
ten eat more than we really need. Eat
ing when the system is weary will lead
us into the same error, for the very
weakness existing in the body, infiu-
ences the whole body, SO that the
stomach cannot digest what it other
wise would and in its weakened cendi-
ton 1t frequently presents inordinafe
demands, and we eat too much Eat
ing bits at all hours of the day leads us
into the habit of eating too much; for
by this habit the normal condition of
the stomach is subverted, and while
illus osSu ~ cAitnot NC IdlLnIuI mon1-
tor of the wants of the system. Thus,
the constant tendency of both adults
and children is to eat too much for
health, and it is no doubt q fact that
more people die from gluttony than
from starvation The multitudes of
dyspeptics are not generally made SO by
short allowances of proper food, but by
1nordinate stufiing of rich viands, or by
improper diet and imperfect nourish-
ment. Thus the principle of the Roman
continues to work, though we may not
go as far as he did yet we love TO eat,
and often love to eat too much.

surgents, they were welcomed and
greeted and aided by these people, and
every one was ready to enlist under the
banner and keep stepto the music of the
Union.
Should not they who had been the al
lies of the Government in its time of
danger be entitled to its privileges and
immunities when the danger had pass
ed? They who had worn the livery of
the nation in war, should they not have
its franchises in peace? They who
largely contributed to its victory, should
they not enjoy the fruits of the tri-
umph? They who could carry mus
kets to the battlefield, could they not
be trusted to carry ballots to the ballot
box? Those who could use the sword
to defend the Constitution, could they
not use the suffrage to aid in its admin
istration? To the candid and honest
mind the consideration of this subject
led to the conclusion that humanity,
policy, religion and justice required
that all discrimination against any class
by reason of race or previous condition,
in respect to the elective franchise,
should be abrogated. BY the fifteenth
amendment this is accomplished, and
henceforth throughout the extent of this
vast republic, the freedman's right to
the elective franchise, the right to have
his voice heard in the selection of ru-
lers, the right to contribute his influ-
ence in moulding the policy of govern
ment, is eonclasively secured to every
class Of citizens. Henceforth, as a uni
ted people, we enter upon higher and
nobler career-a-careero of uneXampled
growth in material prosperity and intel
lectual and moral advancement. i an
ticipate no return to the conflicts and
antagonisms of the past. The North
and the South, without distinction of
caste or race, sit at the same council
board and worship at the same patriotic
shrine. The nations of the earth are
fiocking to our shores as the great thea
tire of material progress and human
brotherhood. The consolidated banner
of the Republic, imperial in the power
and justice which it represents, is again
full high advanced in every part of our
land, and upon every sea, while the gen.
ius of regenerated country beckons us
onward to the greatness and the bene-
factions of the future, over which the
morning stars shall sing together and
the sons of God shall shout for joy.

IMMENSELY OF SPAcE.-AstroBome
estimate that some of the more distant
stars seen by Lord Roses telescope
give to the earth the rays of light which
left them $1,000 years ago-having Ia
ken all that time at the rate of 100000
miles, or eight times round our earth,
in one second, to reach us that the
rays emitted now will not reach our
solar system until another 80 600 years
have passed away. Take our earth for
q central point, and one of these dis
tant stars being due east and another
due west, their distance from each 9TH
er would be double the distance from
the earth, or loo, goo years would be con-
sHmed in the passage of rays of light
from one end to the other-more time
than is allotted to three thousand gen.
erations of the human race. If the
time so occupied is inconceiyably vast,
how can we form any conception of the
distance? Multiply the 100000 years
reduced to seconds by 200, 900, and you
get the distance between such stars, in
miles; but the number is absolutely
| overwhelming.
But we have only begun to look q
comparatively short distance out into
the infinite space, or perhaps into, to us.
the illimited creation. We may imag-
inc a million Of stars placed in straigt
| line, each as far distant from its next Al
the two we have above supposed, and
vet the distance between the two last
extremes would be too short for meas
ure to measure across the vast creation
though extended over new space once
in each minute, for million years.
