6. INMATES.

There are nine of these in the building,
some of which are pitiabie objects. The
sick ones are under the care of DIR. Swi-
hart, who is doing them all the good in
his power. / notice that the rooms occu
pied by the inmates are as neat and clean
as circumstances will permit.
And now Mr.. Editor, must ask you 10
indulge me in few remarks ere | close
this already too-lengthy communication
There is not, in my opinion, more I'M
pleasant and arduous vocation than that
of experimenting an institution of this
kind. Here You have around you the worst
cases of poor, afflicted human nature
persons not only deformed and depraved
but suffering under the most loathsomc di.-
eases. 1t is here where YOU often find
the most pitiable victims of vice and inn
morality-men, women, and children Who
have been reduced to poverty and want
the wrecks of once healthy and stalwart
frames, the sad consequences, in many
instances, Of a wrong course of conduct in
former years.
Often in our visits to these abodes. we
have pondered over the scenes of wretch
edness they present, wondering why God
permits such sad scenes of human woe to
mar the glory of His works. We have
looked upon the face OF he lie widow
and mother, with feelings VIC cannot ics-
crioc, and have marked in her paid check
her vacant eye and emaciated frame, the
work of the fell destroyer We have lis
tened to the wild rawlings ofthe poor man
lac, and imagined what terrible vision fit
across his dark, bewildered mind, as he
spoke of hideous reptiles and torturing
demons haunting his pathway to an un-
timely grave. We have sat by the side
of the little orphan, remembering that
she had no maternal eye to watch over
her-no mothers love to cheer her, and
no fathers strong arm to bear her up amid
life S adversities,- was but child and
alone in the world, and that a thousand
temptations and snares were in her path
way through coming life. And as we
gazed tearfully upon the smiling face OF
that little incumbent upon public charity,
we silently prayed that Gods protecting
arm would shield her from all harm.
Public Charity! No. / should not
have written that. 1t is a duty we oae to
our fellows in distress, and in the dis
charge Of this duty shines ont the true lin
eaments of our christian character. In
stead of looking on these inmates as pau.
pers, let us look upon them as our broth
ers and sisters-erring though some OF
them may be--and pride ourselves in be-
ing instruments in the hands of the Great
Universal Father, in ministering to theil
wants. Let us not consider it a misfor-
tune that we have IN our midst comfort.
able home for the pow erty stricken ant
homeless orphan. No greater honor car
be conferred upon any community thar
that of having home for the homeless
and food for the hungry.

.. CONDITION OF THE FARM.

Mr.. Steckman, the present Superinten-
dent, is doing all in his power to make the
premises neat and comfortable. He has
expended great amount of labor in clear
ing out grubs and rubbish, thus making
the place attractive and interesting
But with all he has done, much more
remains to be done, before the houses and
lands will present an unexceptionable APP
pearance. And were the Commissioners
fully alive TO the demands of the institu-
ton, they would see the necessity of au-
thorizing Mr.. Steckman to carry on his
Improvements more extensively. 1t is not
just for Mr.. s. to labor fer the county
without due compensation. And yet it is
known here that the amount of labor he
has already expended is lily compensated.
We, who live here, do know that Mr. 5.
has done all any person could do in I'M
proyement, under the same circumstances.

poor tailor being released from trouble.
some world and scolding wife appeared at
the gate of Paradise. Peter asked him il
he had ever been to purgatory.
No, said the tailor but I have been mar
ried.
Oh, said Peter, that's all the same.
The tailor had scarcely got in before fat
turtle eating alderman came along putting
and blowing.
Halo you fellow, said he, open that
gate.
Not so fast, said Peter, have you ever
been to purgatory
No said the alderman, but what's that to
the purpose? You let in that poor half.
starved tailor. and he has been no more to
purgatory than myself?
But he has been married, said Peter.

J have been married twice.

How much greater was her surprise when
be took from his vest pocket two dollar
BILL saying, kindly:
"Clara, you must need some money for
household expense"
"Oh, Walter" she said, with tfemulous
hope at this unwonted action, "can it be
that you"
s'That I have reformed !? With Heavens
help, I think have, Clara. I shall try to
make you better husband in future"
There was joy in the humble home Of
Walter Gordon that night-the joy of a
wife who had found her husband, and Of d
man who had found himself.
When John Glover heard Of Walter Cor
don's reformation, he laughed incredulousy,
and said: II shall have him again before
the week is OUT
He was not mistaken. Walter Gordon
did call on him before the week was out !;
but his errand was to say that he was about
to vacate his present house and move into a
better one, owned by Deacon Holmes"
Three years passed by. At the end of
that time Walter Gordon was we'll, happy
and prosperous, while the landlord had him
self sunk into the drunkard's grave, which
he had prepared for SO many others.

Eet Your Wife Know

1t is custom too common with the men
of the world to keep their families in utter
ignorance of the situation of business. The
wife knows nothing-has not an idea of the
amount of her husbands fortune, whether il
is to be counted by hundreds or thousands.
What can woman kept in such Ignorance
learn ? She spends, as matter of course,
all he gives her to spend, with the full con.
fdenee that when that is gone, and she asks
for it, he will give her more.
If an unmarried woman works, she may
60 with bold, unblushing face, and de-
mand her wages; but wife can demand
nothing, her claim is only of bare necessity
aud generous men. on that account, are Of
ten too indulgent, too fearful of letting their
wife know the exact statement of their 6nan'
ces. tbs all wrong
Husband and wife have mutual inter
est; every woman should know the exac
statement Of her husbands finances, under
stand his plans, and aid him if possible,
with her counsels, and then these terrible
catastrophes would not so often happen
Many wife who is plunging her husband
deeper and deeper into debt from ignorance
would, if she knew his embarrassments, b.
first to retrench, the first to save, and will
true womanly sympathy and generosity
help him to reinstate his falling fortunes.

Greeley and Old Ebony.

We were sitting with Horace one after
noon in that little disreputable sanctum Of
his adjoining the countingroom of the Tri;-
bune. The old gentleman was in one Of his
chronic conditions Of grumble and discon-
tent. He had that mealy appearance, SO
: common to him, that made him resemble a
blond miller fresh from the dust of his -four
mill, and was expressing his private opinion
in public and somewhat profane way
when colored gentleman was announced,
''Let him come in" roared the philosopher,
and an aged darkey clad in broadcloth, gold
trimmed spectacles, and cane, headed with
the same precious metal, stalked in.
Mister Greeley, believe p he inquir-
ed.
eyes, I'm Mister Greeley; what do you
want p was the gruff response.
"Well, sah,'' said old Ebony Specs, seat
ing himself as he deposited his hat and cane
on the Aoor-''Well, sab, I've been think
ing that our race don't pay enuff attention
to scientific pursuits, sab"
| We saw the cloud gather Ga the intellect
ual countenanoe OF the journalistic Bohemi-
an. 1t broke in thunder at that point. In
a voice wherein was blended the shrill tones
Of a hysterical woman end the growl Of a
tiger, he exclaimed

fool you want a hoe handle and patch OF
New Jersey-that's the scientific pursuit
you want Get out"
