SEVENTY TEARS AGO.

Seventy-one years ago the seat Of
government was removed from Phila-
delphia to Washington, and President
John Adams, with his family, was
obliged to leave the comfortable and
even luxurious city upon the Della
ware, to establish himself upon the
lonely and unpromising shores Of the
Potomac. "Woods are all you see
from Baltimore until you reach this
city, which is only so in name" writes
the clever and accomplished Mrs.
Adams "Here and there is small
cot without a glass window, inter-
spersed among the forests, through
which you travel miles without seeing
any hnman being" OF the first
White House she says: 1.-THE house
is upon grand and superb scale, re-
quiring about thirty servants to at
tend and keep the apartments in prop
er order, and perform the ordinary
business of the house and stables-an
establishment very well proportionsd
to the Presinent's salary! The light
ing the apartments from the kitchen
to parlors and chambers is task, in
deed; and the fires we are obliged to
keep to secure US from daily agues is
another cheering comfort. To assist
US in that great castle, and render less
attendance necessary, bells are wholly
wanting, not one single one being
hung through the whole house, and
promises are all you can obtain. We
have not the least fence, yard, or 9TH
er e0nveniNees without, and the
great unfinished audience room /
make a drying-room of to hang up
my clothes in"
This was seventy-one years ago
but to-day if, on some soft, bright
summer afternoon you are driving
along the lonly wooded roads upon
the Virginia shore Of the Potomac,
upon some high point near Fort
Whipple, perhaps, you turn and see,
over a foreground, of rounding foliage,
a striking picture. Beyond the de-
scending foreground Is broad, gleam-
ing river, seen far from east to west,
and on the shore beyond. for many
and many a mile stretches what seem
to be great city. From the midst
of it rises one Of the most imposing
buildings in the world. st. Peters
seen from the Villa Doria, is hardly
finer than the Capitol from the Ar
lington House. And it is impossible
to stand in that great and beautiful
cemetery, in which the dust Of an
army is deposited, and look toward
the noble building which symbolizes
the national Union for which the
soldier fell without profound patriotic
emotion.

DOES Ice RELIEVE RST?-Ice
not only melts, but it dissOlyes. A
lump of ice placed on the table will
melt-placed in water it dissolves,
Just as sugar or salt does. When we
place sugar or salt in our mouths, the
glands fill our mouths with saliva,
dissolve the sugar or salt, and wash ii
down our throats in q state of sOlu-
ton. The amount of saliva in the
glands il comparatively small, and is
rapidly exhausted, leaving the mouth
dry, and creating a desire for drink
to moisten the mouth, though the
body may be actually surcharged
with moisture. Ice has precisely the
same effect. It compels the glands to
discharge their saliva to dissolve the
ice, and leaves them dry and clamor-
Gus for more water. Every boy or
girl knows the apparently Unsuitable
thirst created by eating snow, the
snow penetrating rapidly the entire
mouth, and drying up the glands as
with a sponge. In the same way at
every iee-cream saloon a glass Of water
is handed with the cream, and many
persons drink two or three glasses OF
water after eating an ice. For this
reason the practice Of giving ice, es-
pecialIy to the sick, is highly Objec-
tionable, and even for well persons
fails of its object. We need a great
deal of water to keep our skin sup
piled with moisture. The object Of
the moisture is to keep tbs skin cool.
The cooler the moisture we drink the
less will we require. But ice will
make US drink more than we need to
produce the desired eOolness.

Along Branch Dame Sketehed.

"OLIvIA," Of the Philadelphia
Press, writing from Long Branch,
gives the following sketch:
"a married woman Of the fashion,
able kind at Long Branch has arrived
at that point where there is nothing
more that can be expected or desired.
She has a suit Of rooms set apart for
her exclusive use. She has servants
who have neither eyes nor ears. She
has a carriage lined with satins as
eider-down, which comes and goes by
q wave Of her jeweled hand. She
has a professional bather to take her
into the briny fluid, who knows how
as to manage that even the Atlantic
shall not visit her cheek too roughly.
She has usually a very young man at
tached to her by invisible reins, after
the dramatic manner of Aunt Trot-
wood and Mr.. Dick. This innocent
creature fills the measure Of her vani-
ty when nothing better has been gath
cred for the slaughter. The most
desperate fiirtations are seething and
bubbling whilst the husband is grow
ing bald with hard thinking in Wall
street. If this woman is cursed with
any progeny she has a nurse or gov
erness for every child, whilst French
maid waits at her elbow to comb and
adjust her false hail, to powder, pencil
and paint, to unhoOk, unlaee, or un-
tie. Why, Queen Elizabeth was de-
MED more than half the luxuries this
American princess enjoys. What re-
turn to the world does this woman
make for all she takes out Of it? Her
mental organization is as false as her
physical, and yet New York sends
scores of just such women to all the
fashionable resorts in the country.
Can women be said to be enslsved
when we have such pictures before
our eyes 4? If such are in bondage, it
is only the God who created them can
unseal their eyes, Notwithstanding
Mrs. Cady Stanton and Parson Beech
er,

The aged professor siIliman tool

The aged professor Silliman. took
the homely-lOoking specimen Of New
Jersey coal, and said he would make
test and determine its quality. The
next day the owners Of the grand dis
covery waited on him again, eager to
hear the verdict which was to make or
mar their fortunes. The Professor
said, with that impressive solemnity
which always marked his manner:
Gentlemen, understood you to
say that this property is situated upon
a hill-top-consequently the situation
is prominent. 1t is vaIuable-im-
menselY valuable-thOugh as a coal
mine / am obliged to observe that it is
q failure. Fence it in, gentlemen
fence it in, and hold to it through good
and evil fortune till the Last Day; for
I am convinced that it viii be the
best point from which to view the
sublime spectacle of the final confla-
grafton. I feel satisfied that If any
part Of the earth shall remain unin-
jured after that awful fire, it will be
this coal mine of yours :"

How to clear a DIseharge Pipe.

It is not unusual, in city houses, to
find discharge pipe from the sink
stopped, in consequence Of the care
lessness Of q servant. In such case
the plumber has to be called in, who
applies his air pump, and the clearance
is effected. But plumbers are not al
ways men Of their word-in a recent
instance we were compelled to wait
two days before the plumber made
his appearance. In consequence Of
this plumbers delay we set to work
to study an air pump that might ans
wer for the occasion, and one that
would always be on hand. Here Is
the result and it works perfectly
Take a straight poker, or some stick,
and wrap one end with a wet cloth,
holding the other end in the hand for
safety, and use it as a piston in the
pipe. Work 1t up and down few
times, and the clearance is effected.

reaper throwing them into regular

when, twenty years ago, we cut oats
without an umbrella or gloves, and
