Mr.. Sampson, the North Adams
shoes manufacturer, says that his e1-
pertinent is so successful that he in
tends to import fifty more Chinese, in
creasing the number to one hundred
and twenty-five. Before the first ship
ment arrived his business had hardly
held its own, but now it is largely
profitable. The Chinese are very apt
in learning the business, and some Of
the Caucasians whom he has since em-
ployed, have left in disgust because
the Chinese were more rapid workmen
than themselves. They average about
one-sixtn more work in proportion to
their number. 40 7i-..-

Here is an argument for the Nation,
which opposes woman suffrage upon
the ground that the introduction of the
element of sex into politics would in
sensibly but inevitably. derange the
conduct of the public service:
can English commander found his
steamer some thirty miles out of her
course. He was sorely troubled, and
could not account for the local attrac.
ton that had sent him so far out of the
way. Instruments and calculations
appeared equally faultless. Sorely
troubled from having passed a sleep
less, watchful night, the captain went
ON deck after breakfast. Seeing lady
sitting Gas was her custom) and work
ing near the pinnacle, it occurred to
him that probably the scissors were
resting on the ledge of it. Detecting
nothing of the sort, and bent on closer
investigations, he discovered that the
chair had an iron frame. 1t also rea.
sonably flashed across him that the
lady's ample crinoline was extended
by steel hoops. So mastering all his
faculties he exclaimed with as much
forgiveness and as little reproach in his
eye as possible, Madam, you have, by
your local attraction, drawn my ship
some thirty miles from her course.
Such being the magnetic influence o.
woman, it is perhaps well to consider
how far her presence near the helm
would cause the Ship Of State to defect
from its proper course. Very truly
did Byron speak when he called q

No matter whether russett, silk or dlmity.'

Sleep Walkers.

A gentleman in Illinois writes
the following to the Scientific Amer
ican
My observation has led ME tc
believe that sleep walking is q
habit of the system. l have no
ticed that children who are allowed
to go to sleep on the floor or lounge
In the evening, and afterward, al
some regular hour, are aroused (of
course only partially awakened)
and sent to bed, will in time &C.
quire the habit of sleep walking
| have no doubt that the man
mentioned in the Scientific Amer
ioan of July 22d, who would get
up and go to the cellar in the
night for a drink of wine while a
sleep, had been in the habit Of
fist going for it in the night time
while awake. / presume but that
few Lave failed to notice how soon
the mind, by dreams, will Iecog-
nj e a habit of walking at par
ticular hour for any purpose. |
think that the whole philosophy
of sleep walking has its fOunda-
ton in habit, acquired by disturb
ance at some regular hour devoted
to sleep. 9 81

Frightened by a Monkey

Two burglars in Cincinnati
concluded to make a descent on
the residence of gentleman
in that city one nightIast week,
but were ignorant of the fact
that the gentleman had ON his
premises a very remote ances-
tor in the shape of a monkey.
On this particular night Mr..
Monkey, finding it too hot to
rest comfortably, had left his
troubled couch, and was perch
ed upon a sill of an opened win
dow in thesecondstory. There
he sat, enjoying the glorious
moonlight and ruminating up
on the happy days of long ago,
when he sported among the
rich verdure Of Brazilian for
ests, partook Of the luscious
tropical fruits, or pestered some
poor poll parrot by peppering
her with pecans. The appear
ance of burglars awoke him from
his reverie. With eager cuirios-
ity he watched them in their at
tack upon the house, and when
they had pentrated as far as the
kitchen he could stand it no
longer but gave a tremendous
screech, followed by a pro-
longed ch-r-r-r-r-r-r which cur
died the blood in their VEINS
They evidently fancied that a
whole regiment of police were
them, and turned and fled in
wild dismay, followed and
spurred on as they ran by shouts
of laughter from the undeyel-
oped specimen Of humanity up
on the window sill.

Justice to Woman.

! 11 For the Fayetteville Observer.
! Mr.. EDIToR :LI notice in tn,
/ OBSERVER of the Sth inst, shor
essay under the caption "wIIicl
was the greatest sinner" the read
ing of which elicits the few re
marks | have tomake. The ques
tion referred to is one of deep anC
thrilling interest, and consequent
ly merits due considerations. There
seems to be a disposition upor
J the part of the human family in
general to ostracise woman for the
slightest offense, while man is
excused and often applauded fol
! the same or even graver offenses
Yes, woman sometimes will receive
into her society and admit to her
confidence, a man whom she
knows to be guilty of offenses, for
which she would shuu from her
presence one of her own sex
Why is this? There is no law of
morals in the word of God, the
observance of which is not required
of all. Woman is under no obi.
CATION that is not required of man.
Why then this disposition on the
part of depraved human nature TO
uphold ore and denounce the 9TH
err The curses Of the Almighty
are pronounced upon all the guilty,
without discrimination; and His
blessings are secured by a faithful
adherence to the teachings of His
word. Those who violate His law,
whether male or female, are alike
under condemnation, and where /
ask is the authority for condemn,
ing one and releasing the other.
Men in the present time may get
drunk, swear and gamble with
impunity, and be received back
into the best society, as soon as
the fumes of whisky have faded
from their lips and the filth from
wallowing has been washed from
their garments. But, let feeble
trembling woman, be guilty of any
of TIN Sc offenses, above named, and
the anathemas of the public are
hurled against and heaped upon
her, and he who is fresh from the
doggery and the brOthel all dyed in
pollution and crime, joins the rab-
bic and utters bis bitterest curses
against her. And is this all?-i
Would to God it was, but alas
poor unfortunate and lorsaken
creature, here comes your, own
sex TO join the army of your per-
secutors, and are more bitter if
possible than they, in their denun-
Citations of you. May God speed
the time when vir'ue will no Ion |
ger be an empty name or a slave !
to fortune! and when mans inhu-
TO man will no longer make
countless millions mourn.
Respectfully, HOMO.

A Lively Scene.
From the Terre Haute Qnd) Gazette

From the Terre Haute (IndD Gazette.
Night before last at an earl
hour, a young man and woman
whose names we are requested no
: to mention in this connection, fo
the reason that they shrink from
publicity from native and acquired
modesty, were returning from ar
evenings ramble below the tragic
shades of Strawberry Hill. They
were locked arm in arm, and ar
dently INDUCED in billing anc
cooling, said to be incident to young
lovers evening rambles, whici
demonstrations were suddenly ter
minated by observing some men
who we're separating cow and
calf, preparatory to milking the
former, when the enraged COW
broke away and made directly for
the festive lovers, the men mean
while hallowing for them 10 stand
from under, or words to that effect.
The manner in which that agile
female took a striding position on
the fence near by would astonish
any acrobat attache of the New
York circus. Not so with our gal
liant hero, however, who. i'll his
anxiety for the safety of his fair
charge, neglected his own safety,
and in a twinkling the old COW,
now almost wild, bore down upon
him, her horns tossed him about
at lively rate, he holding her he
roicly by the horns, and thus pre-
venting her from goring him. The
frantic female still artistically
astride of the fence, outrivaled an
American panther, screaming for
her festive and endangered ADO
mis- to come to her side and sit
with her on the fence out of dam
ger, not realizing that he would be
very happy to be by her side could
he but get there.
Our hero finally succeeded in
disengaging himself from his per-
ilous position, and with one won
derful "leap for life,' he entered
the space of about Is feet which
intervened between the two pla-
ces-one SO precious and the 9TH
.er SO dangerous TO him. The
men coming up at this time Sc
cured the frantic cow, our hero
and heroine alighted from their
roost and tremblingly though
thankfully plodded their way
homeward, shying from every ami
mate and even many inanimate
things for fear Of another attack.
The gentleman was not so much
injured from his bovine expert
ence as he was frightened, though
he considers it truly wonderful
how he escaped with his life, for
which he is thankful, as he well
might be. The festive couple
have not walked past Strawberry
Hill since.
