slipped from our mind. We make haste
to beg Georges pardon.
John Hafhe- and Emma Fletcher,

A w oMAN's VIEWS ON FREE LOVE.

MI s. Pauline Wright Davis, referring
to letter printed in the Tribune, says
" The question is, what is free love, Of
which there is so much terror? Was
lovo even constrained, enforced, or
pure hased ? Whoever loved because
com, handed to ? Passion, vanity, and
convenience are bought and sold 10 the
mark ct, are forced into marriage, and
comp .elled into hated relation; but it
is tilae that sensible people learned to
use language correctly. Love is an
emot ion of the heart, founded upon
respe Ct, esteem, admiration and devo
tion.. To be free is to be exempt from
subje ctiou to the will of one or many,
says Webster. 1 propose to stand upon
this line and fight it out, rcscuiug the
pure words from base prostitution, and
showing that only to the corrupt can
corruption be made ont Of those resolu-
tious." And again :"First, the law
which makes the rendering Of marital
rights and compulsory maternity on the
part of the women, in the absence oflove
and co,ngeniality, Of health and fitness,
obligat ory, is deadly despotism and
no woman thus subjugated can be pure
in soul and body. Every woman who is
demand ing the ballot is, whether she
knows it or not, demanding her right
to selfownership; and every man who is
demanding it for her proclaims that be
has grown out of his tyrannies, aud
recognizes the right inherent in her to
self.owu ership and self government.
Twenty years ago, when We said, Give
Us moral, religious, social, pecuniary, and
political freedom, the whole venal press
shrieked and hovled like demons and
criticised; having won all the outposts,
aud even entered the citadel, those vhc
were toe, weak critics spritg forward
and claim o. that they always thought so
The Observers Of to day will be the
loudest iin advocating these resolutions
Jus. as soon as tn. battle is fought and
the victory won.

SUMMER RATING.

We eat to keep warm and to suatain
strength, and all articles of food have
thosetwo elements lp varying proportion.
Oils, talloR and whale blubber are
almost wholly of,he warming element; /;
hence in Greenland, where the ther.
momster is many degrees below zero,
and a great deal of heat is required, a
native will drink balf dozen gallons
Of oil every day, or eat ten pounds Of
tallow. In the hottest climates of the
world the inhabitants live to great
extent on fruits aud vegetables, which
have but very little Of the heating quail
ties. In OUT climate, which is between
the two, meats, vegetables and fruits
are eaten all the year, round; but if
eaten judiciously, if eaten according to
the season-morc of fruits and vegeta-
bles in summer and less of meats and
fats-an incalculable amount of sickness
would be prevented every year. We
would think man derangei who should
keep as large fires burning in his house
in summer as in winter, and yet we all
persist 10 eating meats and fats aud but
ter all through the summer. Meats and
butter are on our tables three times
day, when in reality they ought to be
sparingly used during the summer
months, at least by the young, the old,
aud the feeble, and by all who are most
Of the time in door, or aho have no
active employment. For the classes
just named very appropriate diet for
the summer would be as follows:
Breakfast-.Cold bread and butter, a
slice Of cold meat, or in its place
couple Of eggs, or saucer Of berries or
.stewed fruit without milk, cream or
sugar. The same for dinner, with one
' vegetable no other desert. For supper
some cold bread and butter and cup Of
hc't drink, and nothing whatever be-
TIVE 'en meals. So far from starving on
such, dict the class of persons above
nanl ed would thrive on it, would grow
s.ro5 ger, would have more bodily vigor,
more mental elasticity, aud greater
flow of animal spirits, and for the reason
that few would eat too much there
would ID be nothing to overtempt the
appetite, hence the stomach would not
be ov er worked what work it did per-
form would be we'll done; the blood
made would be pure, life-giviDg, and
encre izing. Any man Of ordinary in
tellig ence and observation, who will
give /, fair tri1l 20 the above system of
feedil ,g, will scarcely fail to be con-
vince d of its value within a week after
he be gins it.

HOME.

and happiness is crowded into that
talismanic word How the bosom swels
! with deepest feeling and profundest
emotin o at lis very mention What
hallowed memories aud soal inspiring
associations cluster around that sacred
shrine-our childhood's happy home
Never do our minds tire in busy
thought over the scenes and remem-
brances of this sanctuary of our heats
purest and holiest affections. Its
cheerful spirits, sunny faces, and revercd
forms whatever .anges time may
have wrought since our severance from
the old .homestead-are all vividly
before US; and We again seem to be
living upon our halcyou days Of the
eyentful past.
We can never, no, never forget that
happy family group, aud sisters. Of
which in other years We formed men,
Der. Although long years have circled
away since that peaceful domestic circle
were wont to gather round that familiar
hearthstone, yet the whole scene, in all
its interest and naturalness, is indelibly
imprited on minds and hearts. 'Tis
mournfuily .rue that some Of the mem
bers of that household, perchauce that
devoted father or pious mother, or sis
ters or brothers, have gone down to the
land of shadows and of death but still
there is sanctity and sacredness liuser-
ing around that precious spot OF earth
that will ever endear it to our hear s.
And why should it not be so? 1t was
there We were born there we spent the
days of our childhood; and there, for
the first time, around that family al:ar,
celestial influences operated upon hearts,
and sought to win them to the skies
With such holy and hallowing memories
attaching to that sacred place why
should We not love and vencrate it?
Why should mcilowing and soul-tou,h-
ing Influences play around our hears
when
"Fon memory brings the lish:
Of other days around me-"
Even the old man, who has lonS had
home of his own, sheds the briny
tears as he talks about the home and
associations Of his own chi!dhoow. The
fountain of tears is unscaled every
time that in memory he revisits those
old and familiar scenes. Heaven in
tended that home should be CHERISHED
spot; and the man would be 1ntrne to
all the higher and notler instincts Of
his being were it not. The love of
home and kindred is the last passion
that grows cold in the human breast.
Even the Indian savage, dead to the
sympathy as is his heart for the white
man, cherishes an almost idolatrous
reverence for his hunting grouads and
the graves of his forefathers. The sacred
principle of vencra;ion for home and
its cherished objects runs all through
the lower and higher grades Of humanity.
1t prevails as much in the humble cot
tage of the poor and uulettered, as in
the splendid mansions Of the opulcnt
and the great.
The sentiment is universally received
that There's 70 place like home
