THE NEW PARTY.

Does it not almost take your breath
away? Isit not almost too good to be
believed? Are they not offering us
more than they really intend to give
us? These were the questions and the
representatives Of the workmen; but
they have ali been answered and re-
moved. With what powerful lever
will the new party, with this platform,
work on the minds of the working
classes of the kingdom? "You are
told of a republic, it will say. But
what republic in the world gives to it's
citizens such blessings as those we offer
yOu?" The agreement is that each of
the seven planks of the platform shall
be put into the shape of a bill. intro
duced in the House of Lords
at the commencement of the next SEES
sion, passed and sent down to
the Commons as speedily as might be.
Wha can Mr. Gladstone and his party
of new-rich, middle-class, mercantile
and manufacturing "hberals" SAYS
when this avalanche of more than liber-
al measures Genes tTlmbIing down up
on their heads from the House of
Lords They will be in far worse
plight than when the Tory party, led
by Mr.. Disraeli, took all the wind out
Of their sails by bringing in a bill for
unlimited household suffrage in place
of their paltry measure e6 or seS fran
chise. Do what they will they can not
outbid the new purity. They must
either yield to it, and swim along be-
hind it, or they must at once throw off
the mask and become the party of the
bourgeoise-tie party of mere money
against rank and labor.
Now for the names of the men who,
acting one side for the peers and the
other for the proletar1at, have effected
this alliance. The former are: The
Earl of Litchfield, the Marquis Sauls-
bury, Lord Henry Lennox, Sir John
PakingtOn, the Earl OF Carnavon, the
Marquis Lorne, Lord John Manners,
Sir Stafford NOrthc0te, Gathorne Hardy.
These are the gentlemen who have sign
ed the contract on the part of the peers.
The Duke of Richmond and Mr.. Dis
raeh are heart and soul with the
scheme, but for the present remain in
the background ....f ....r.
The individuals who have signed on

A REMEDY FOR THE CoTToN WORM.
Mr.. A. Bestwick, of Richmond, Fort
Bend county, Texas, gives the follow
ing as a certain remedy for the dreaded
scourge Of the "great staple" the cot
ton worm or caterpillar:
"Take the jamestown or stramoniunt
weed when full grown and in bloom,
chop off fine stalks, leaves and bolls,
fill vessel two thirds full of the weed
thus prepared, then fill with water,
and boil slowly from one to two hours,
after which add small quantity of
lime to clarity; then sprinkle the grow
ing cotton with the preparation, using
small watering-pOt or syringe, and it
will kill the worm as soon as applied.
IF done in time it will destroy the egg
or germ, and so poison the leaves that
the worm will not afterwards eat them!
This remedy is said to have proved
efiectual in every instance where it
was tried last year. 1t is certainly
worth trying.

ADVICE TO GmLs.-Somebody
gives the following advice to girls. 1t
is worth volumes Of fiction and senu-
mentalism: Men who are worth hav-
ing, want women for wives. \ bundle
Of gewgaws, bound with strings ofilats
and quivers, sprinkled with cologne
and set in a carmine auccr-this Is
no help for a man who expects to RAISE
Il family Of boys on bread and meat
The piano and lace frames are good
in their places, and so are ribbons,
frills and tassels; but you cannot
make dinner Of the former, nor Il bed
blanket of the latter-and awful as
such an idea may seem to you, both
dinner and led blankets are necessary
to domestic happiness. Life has its
realities as well as lancies but you
make it all decorations, remembering
the tassels and curtains, but forgetting
the bedstead. Suppose a man Of good
sense and, of course, good prospects, TO
be looking for wife, what chance
have you to be chosen? You may
cap him, or you may trap him. but
how much better to make it an object
for him to catch you. Render your
self worth catching, and you need ne
shrewd mother or brother to help you
to find market.

the following good story:
One who does not believe in i'm
mcrsion for baptism was holding a
protractcd meeting, and one night
preached on the subject Of baptism.
In the course of his remarks he said /:
Some believe it necessary to 60 down
into the water, and come out Of the
water baptised. But this he claimed
to he a fallacy, for the proposition
'into" of the Scriptures should be
rendered differently, as it does not
mean INTO at all. "Mosos.' be said,

We fully indorse all that follows, from

It's not uncommon in country houses
for all the members of the family to
use the same towel for wiping their
hands and faces. am often surprised
to sec how this practice prevails even
among people of considerable cultiva~
ton. Frequently the towel is made OF
three yards Of good crash, sewed to-
qether at the ends and hung over the
| FOWLER. This seems verp nice and gen.
erous when it is clean, but not after
it has hung there two or three days,
used at morning, noon and night by
halfa dozen persons. We may be able
to endure a good deal of our owl
