Boy Smokers.

If man should tell us that a
healthy child could put his system
under the influence of a powerful
narcotic every day, without perma-
nent injury, we should tell him that
he didn't know much-dbOut that.
We never saw so many boys smok-
ing along the streets as now. The
practice will reduce the final stature
of the boy who begins at fourteen
at least half an inch. 1t will dimin-
ish his physical force in that proper
tion, and mental force still more.
The boy that smokes can bear trouble
better. He can lose his place in a
store with less grief. 1t worries
him less to get to the foot ofhis class.
Tobacco is leather,jacket that
shields his hide from the lash of
adversely. We doubt if there is a
business man in Boston so green
that he would take boy that smokes
when he could as well have as good
a boy who does not. Tobacco is a
source OF daily expense, a motive
for theft till a boy comes to mans
pay. 1t wastes his blood, for though
the parotid glands save the kidneys
some work, yet he that makes an
urethra ofhis mouth, must lose from
his blood much that is needed for
digestion, whereas the kidneys do
their own work better, and, in health,
rob the blood of nothing useful.
Man is the most precious crop the
Yankee raises, and just now it is
scant in quantity. Let it not be in
ferior in staple also.-Boston Ners.

DROPPING LEAVES.
MRS. ANN s. STEPHENS.

The leaves are dropping, dropping,
And l watch them as they go;
Now whirling, floating, stopping.
With look of noiseiess woe.
Yes, watch them in their falling.
As they tremble from the stem,
With a stiffness so appalling
And my heart goes down with them!
Yes, see them floating round me
Mid the beating of the rain,
Like the hopes that still have bound me
To the fading past again.
They are floating through the stiffness,
They are given to the storm
And they tremble of like phantoms
OF joy that has no form.
But the proud tree stands up prouder,
While its branches east their Leaves
And the cold wind whispers londer,
Like sobbing breath that grieves;
A heart that's long in breaking,
As single flower may cling,
All withered, shorn, and quaking,
On the naked stalk till spring.
Then Thought" That tree is human.
And its boughs are human too;
For while the leaves were wealthy
With kindling sap and dew
With the sun shot golden lances
Through all its billowy green,
And the birds poured love and music
Where the slanting rays had been
81 f~a
Like wine drops from the ground,
Till it sparkled through the foliage,
As faith fills the profound
OF souls that live together
In kindred trust and love,
Till their union seems immortal
As the burning stars above.
But the very dews of summer
Had left their own decay;
And Change, ruthless vampire,
That steals the soul away,
Came with the mellow autumn,
And touched those leaves with blight;
Then the forest came stealing earthward,
Like ghost upon the night.
When the frost had done its death work,
When the golden leaves were scar.
And the brown crept dimly ON them
In the old age of the year.
All. the roots withdrew their nurture,
While the tree stood firm and high;
When the leaves had lost their greenHess,
10, it cast them Off to die!''
Then thought, "Those leaves were weary
And thrilled with human pain,
As they fell so cold and dreary
Beneath the beating rain.
While the boughs waved slow and grimly,
And shook them all away
Those leaves that fell so dimly,
Like shadows on the day
Then my soul went sadly after,
As they quivered from my sight,
And it followed faster, faster,
As my hopes had taken flight.
SO l watched the pale leaves flutter,
Flutter downward from the stem;
And I said, The cold earth under
Is enough for me and them.

TIE ONO DEMOCRACY.

The State Democratic Convention
met at Columbus yesterday. Its action
shows more of the signs of policy than
have hitherto appeared in its convention
doings. This is the consequence of sue
cessive defeats and small expectations.
The candidates do not seem to be made
up of those who insisted on nominations
in order to indorse a notoriously bad re-
cord in the war, as has heretofore been
the case. The platform avoids the 5th
amendment and negro suffrage, and
even makes a flourish Of the Declaration
of independence, as if it were the Dem
ocratic doctrine of equal rights; but it
limits the application thereof to the late
seeded States.
1t also avoids a direct declaration for
Reputation, but puts it in the way of
taxing bonds.
Its declaration on the tariffs compre-
hensive and complex. 1t goes for low
revenue tariff with the closest approxi-
nation to free trade in the necessaries
of life. A tariff approximating to free
trade would hardly pay for keeping up
the customs establishment And tar
iff that laid no duties on the necessaries
of life would hardly touch this mundane
sphere. But this is sufficiently vague
for Democratic platform.
It resolves against the internal revenue
system. In short, the Democratic party
offers absolute immunity from taxation.
This, however, is but the cheap benevo-
lence of a party that has no expectation
of having to carry on the Government.
There is a glitteringly general accusa-
ton of the Republican party, and a
promise of reform if the people viii elect
the Democracy. Even the devil is a re-
former when he is sick.
The platform resolves generally in IA
vor Of oppressed nationalities, but II
omits to say a word for the faithful e
mans. who vote the Democratic ticket
and strike now and then for the hhefa-
ton of Ireland. E..
what il onits than what it contains. But
Democratic platforms are Of but little
moment. The party has character
that overrides all literature. They who
vote the Democratic ticket do so by in
stinct. The Democratic party could sue
ceed in Ohio only by the disaffection and
inaction of the Republicans Cs'sef'i-

PRINCE ARTHUR, it is said, was dane
ing at a ball at Montreal, when a note
was placed in his right royal hand, in
which the General said to the Prince,
who is a Lieutenant, that IL il would suit

would like to order the regiment to the

Who wept tears of gin and milk and
cheered for His Royal Highness till they

the Prince was on hand at IL o'clock
precisely, and as the troops filed proudly
by him at a double quick, he brisisly
picked his teeth TO the tune. and ordered
his eoachnan to follow discreetly in the
rear. lust then four Fenians made a
rush at the troops. and would have sur
rounded them If there hadn't been 5000

Then the noble Prince drew his sword,
and poking his head out Of the window,
said in large tones: Bully Boys, your
