NABBED BUT NOT HELD.-A couple
CT young night owls in human form was ar
rested IN the 9Th ward by some of our city
police last Thursday night, under suspicious
circumstances, and they were taken before
Justice Ducasse, but the case was sworn
away from him by the parties arrested and
taken to Redwood before Squire Smith,
where it was thought the unprecedented eyes
of the world could better rest upon them.
After hearing the young men were dis
charged, as it appeared they were only on
bit of skylark when taken in custody, and
had neither murdered nor robbed anybody.

WOODS HOUSEHOLD MAGAzINE.-Were we
out of our chair editorial, as ~private
citizen cut off from our exchange list and
all that, one of the first magazines to which
we should become subscriber, would be
Woods Household. This is a publication
wholly out of the usual line, and beyond
the common order Of Magazine literature
with point and meaning, when it is gay or
sportire, and emlnently instructive when
serious and rejecting. Much of this work
;s devoted to the discussions of just such
subjects as will greatly benefit, while it
deeply interests the general seeker after
knowledge, DESTROYS of really useful infor-
nation. Should anything we might say
induce any one to subscribe for it, we be-
lieve they will thank us from their hearts
as benefactors, SO far, at least.

In every known sense of word,
a woman owns the man who loves her,
more than he owns her. Her love is
perhaps as great, but it is not SO absorb.
ing. She sees the situation where he
see only her. She is as strong as all
bis strength, becaus, his strength is
hers. With whatever Of power or wis
dom or renown he is endowed, she also
becomes, possessed, aud no enlargement
Of his borders diminishes one iota of
his depe endence upon her for the abii-
ty to enjoy them. Ifthere is any DIFF
ference the supreme control, the court
of last resort, is hers. Civil codes may
reach state of absolute perfection, do
ing equal and entire justice to man and
woman, and husband will still be
able to hector his wife to death and the
wife her husband; and as between the
two, one is inclined to think she does
it best. A woman has rather more
power to make home steadily and un-
mitig 'tedly uncomfortable than has
man.-Gaiz Hamilton.

Those who have visited Paris, and

Those who have visited Paris, and
remember among its works of art tho
famous column in the Place Vendome,
vii! feel peculiar pang of regret at tho
mad Vandalism Of the Commune.
True, this column was a memorial of
the victories of the FIRST Napoleon. It
was l35 feet high, and completely
covered with bass-reliefs representa-
the battles through which that great
soldier had conducted the armies Of
France; twelve hundred captured can
non were cast into ornaments f6r this
triumphsl monument; and if it's de-
struction could have brought peace to
distracted Paris, nobody would object.
But as it is, bronze column, harmless
and senseless, but of wonderful artistic
merit, has been torn down. Paris has
one less attraction, aud the fallen
bronze IS one more evidence of the i'm
pulsive fckleness of it's populacs.

follows: "a molecule of oxygen

for its mate, but finding none, when Of
a sudden in some hidden nook it dis.
covers molecule Of hydrogen, when
10 ! there is rush, an embrace, and
there is neither any more oxygen no,

good old woman, "he's been at me-"
"And what has he been saying to
you? inquired the minister. "He's
been saying to me-" replied Betty,
that it's a. delusion- the Bibles

May We exhort such of our readers
as have no pictures hanging in their
room to put one up immediately-we
mean IN their principal sitting room !;
IN all tnelr rooms II posslble; out at all
events, in that one-no matter how
costly or the reverse, provided they see
something in it, and it gives them a
profitable or pleasant thought? Some
may allegc that they have ono taste for
pictures;" tut they have a taste for
objects to be found in pictures,-for
trees, for landscapes, for human beauty,
for scenes Of life; Or, if not for all these,
yet surely for some one of them and
it is highly useful for the human mind
to give itself helps towards taking an
interest in things apart from its imme-
diate cares or desires.-Leigh Hunt.
