MooRE's RURAL NEw-YoRKER for Octob,

MoORE's RURAL New YORKER for October
1st-the first issue of the last quarter of its
21st ycar-is excellent in both illustrations
and reading matter 1t comprises thirty-five
separate departments and over twenty fine
engravings. Among the latter are life-like
portraits, by the best artists, of nine cele-
brated Trotting Horses, Gncluding Dexter,
Lady Thorn, Mountain Boy, Ethan Allen,
Geo. Palmer, &c.,;) also a portrait of Gen.
Trochu, Governor of Paris, and neat, hui
morous illustration of g Four Scenes in the
life of an Emperor" A new and important
feature is introduced in this number-viz a
department entitled ''The Pacific Coast -
edited by the Hon. L. HART HYATT, of Cal
ifornia. The RURAL also announces the ac-
cession of Mr. A. 5. FULLER "a popular and
able author, and late one of the editors OF
Hearth and HOn'e,) to its already superior
Editorial staff. The offer of the RURAL for
the thirteen weeks of thi. quarter (Oct. to
JAM FREE to all who remit SO for next year,
is, we learn, bringing additions to its large
subscription from all parts of the country.
The extraordinary success of this leading Ru-
raj, Literary and Family Weekly is richly
merited, and it affords US pleasure to chrOni-
Gle its great prosperity. Those of our read

The North Carolina Calamity.

as everybody knows by this time, the
State of North Carolina recently met with
dreadful calamity. The "loyal people"
we're defeated in the regular State cleo
ton, and the State passed under the
bIcody rule ofthe "Ku-klux" Gen. Hcl-
den and that loyal patriot, Capt Xix, did
ali that scslawsgery could do to avert the
catastrophe, but without avail. "Rebel-
lion" was irresistible, and the Unhappy
State is now completely in the hands OF
"the enemies of the Union"
The result of this Unreasonable disa5-
ter IS that perfect peace and tranquility
reign throughout ell the borders Of the State
The salubrious disorders that illustrated
the loyal policy of Holden and Kirk have
ceased. The murders, robberies and VIC.
leuce that the wide columns of the New
YORK Tribune and FOruey's Chronicle
could scarcely contain have vanished as II
BY magic. There is nothing going on TO
stimulate the growth of "lOyalty" in that
devoted State, ara therefore that inspiT-
ing sentiment has sunk into degradation
and Disgrace. Loyal militia can no longer
harrass the people and defy tie laws with
safety, and loyal officials Can no longer in
dulge in the patriotic pastine of stealth
the public moneys The bloody "Ku-
klux will not permit those things; and,
in one word, venality, robbery, and tee
business OF "outrsges" have ceased, and
peace, good order, law, liberty and per-
sonal security reign in North Carolina to
greater degree than at any time since
the war.
The South needs few more of these
North Carolina calamities. Nothing
would bring such speedy relief to South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama. Mis-
sissippi, Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana
and we had almsst said Missouri-as the
rtter overthrow Of that artificial and ex-
&c power called Radicalism, and good
wholesome rebel" victory like that which
has visited North Carolina. The Repub
lican theory has been that the government
ofthese States could not be safely entrust
ed to the hands OF their people, and
therefore, the power of the executive, the
authority OF Congress, and the bayOnets
OF the army have been bershly exerled
Tor five years to keep The government Cuf
Of the hands Of their people, and give Il
TO horde of northern yagabonds anC
southern negroes Bet sctual experience
has proved that this theory he's been
falsehCod and a crime. Tennessee, Vir
ginia and North Carolina each in turr
overthrow the "loyap party and passed
ioto the hands of their people and tn,
result is that Tennessee, Virginia anc
North Carolina, each in turn. hsve be
come abodes OF tranquility and order.
The urgent need of the Southern States
Of the Northern States, of the Who'll,
country, is repetition of the North Car
DINA phenomenOn-the overthrow of des
potic centralism, the re. establishment o
Republican government, the restoration
of their rights to the people, the arrest o
corruption and verality, the extension t.
every citizen of the liberties that the Con
stitution and the laws promise him, an,
the condign punishment of those VIII
have violated this constitution and thes
laws. -MtsSOuri ReDubkic1n.

wood. A large number of families never
know how convenient and economical u
wOod-house or simply wood shed is.
Their practice has always been to shelter
their fuel with snow bank in the winter,
and beneath thunder cloud at other sea-
sons of the year. Consequently, the mu-
sic of the kitchen consists of the Kissing
and steaming of the consuming fuel, and

and stewing domestics over unsatisfactory

A great many prudent fathers seem to

We are all after little more money

but many dollars. One cord of good

EOuseWOrk for Girls.

IT is the law of God that no human
being can have sound, vigorous body,
accomplish much physically, and enjoy
long life, without good muscles Though
there is variety of ways by which ex-
ercise may be obtained, yet domestic labor
is best adapted to develop and strengthen
the whole system. Within few years
much interest has been awakened upon
the subject of physical exercise, partlcu-
larly as connected with schools and semi
naries of learning. Besides the outdoor
exercises and games, calislhepics and
gymnastics have been introduced inside
the schoolro0ln, and are becoming a part
of the regular exercises in many institu-
ticns. This is an improvement in the
Tight direction, and is good as far as it
goes, but is entirely inadequate to meet
fully the demands of nature.
No kind of exercise for girls is so well
calculated as household work to develop
all the muscles of the body-to do 1T in
early life, and gradually, under circum-
stances favorable to health generally. The
girl and young woman must thus be train
cd year after year, otherwise she will
never obtain that hardihood of constitu-
tion, that strength of muscle, that pow er
of endurance, or, in other words, that
balance of temperament 80 essential to
good health and happiness in all the social
and domestic relations of life.-Dr. Al
