ROADS IN OPERATION

No adequate idea can be conveyed Of
the commercial power represented in
the above table, without the use of more
words and space than are proper in this
connection. But the more salient fea-
lures of the presentation will be suiii-
cient to show the extraordinary aggre-
gate OF advantages soon to contribute to
the unprecented growth which we firm
ly believe to be thereby assured to To-
ledo. A few of those may be named:
/. Second to none other, hut rather
befo;e every other, is to be recognized
the great advantage to be derived from
the cheap and superior fuel secur-
ed by means of the Atlantic q Lake Erie
and the Toledo and Mansfield Roads,
each OF which, by Independent lines,
will penetrate the vast and rich Coal
mines of Perry and Hooking counties.
The facilities of either would be suiIi-
cient to assure to Toledo great advan-
tages in manufacturing; but in the
greater capacities and competition of
the two, these advantages are greatly

placed in the position of equality with

points, even in the mineral regions.

REST.
By mrs. JULIA 9. MITCHELL.

Tho cold wintry twilight comes on dark and dreary
The last streak of sunset 10 fading away;
And nature, content with her labor, and weary.
Will rest till the dawn of the fast-cominR dsy.
And I, too, am weary; when life at the onset
Was radiant with bri. .5ht hopes and promises fair
They fed ere the morn, and my cold wintry sunset
Is wrapped in regret, disappointment and care.
The high aspirations and thoughts that cherished,
The restless desire to work and achieve,
In Sickness and suffering, and sorrow have perished,
And now, without aim ambition, I live.
The sweet household faces, whose loved smile I
treasure,
Look dim through the shade ws that over me creep
The world can no longer bring comfort or pleasure,
am longing to lie down and take my last sleep.
Yet do not think that my soul will lie dreaming
Through ages and ages, once stretch her Wings
While each blade of grass on my lone grave is TEEN
With the smallest and meanest of Gods living
things.
Oh, no! I shall soon pass tho graves gloomy Dor
tai,
That opes for me now with the shroud and the
pail.
One moment of death-then my spirit immortal
Shall wake to be Judged by the Maker of all.
Be judged! The thought fills my soul with new
terrorl
almost could shrink to the dark tomb again.
Each sin and transgresson, each folly and error,
Before Gods stern Justice laid open and plain
Yet when would sink meath the weight of tie erea,
curse,
That held me in darkness and bondage 20 long.
draw near the Heart that beat for the universe.
And hide in His loving arms, tender and strong.
And He will not judge me a. men judge eact
other;
He knows the deep waters through which my SOU
passed:
Ny Lord and my Saviour, my Friend and my Brother
Will shelter, and pardon, and save mo at last.

EDUCATION OF GIRLs.-One
of the most prominent and
striking defects in the so called
education Of American women,
is their general want Of any
thing like a correct knowledge
of household duties. No young
lady can be too we'll Instructed
in anything which will effect
the comfort of a family. What
ever position in society she oc-
cupies, she needs a practical
knowledg of household duties.
She may be placed in such a
position that it will not be nee
essary for her to perform do
mestic labor, but on this ac-
count does not need less knowl-
edge, than if she was to per-
sonally over the cooking stove
and pantry. Indeed, I have
thought lis more difficult to
direct others, and requires more
experience, than to do the same
work with our own hands.
Mothers are frequently so
nice and particular that they
do not like to give up any part.
of the care to their children.
This is a great mistake in their
management, for they are often
burdened with labor and need
relief. Children should be
taught early to make them
selves useful, to assist their par
ents every parents every way
in their power. and to consider
it a privilege to do so.-fNe1

Life's Pictuers.

- SlOEF ~ lOIO OI Il llctl lanu-
lord who once oppressed a poor
widow, who was unfortunate
enough to be his tenant, finally
turning ler ont into the street
on a cold day in winter. Her
son, a mere child, less than a
dozen years old, remembered
the crue} scene, and in after
years became an artists, and
painted the scene in a vivid
manner, placing the picture
where tie landlord could see
it, who turned pale at having
bis former .infamy brought to
mind So forcibly. and offered
large sufns of money for the
picture, that he might hide it
from his own and other Peo-
pies gaze. But all in vain, he
could not buy the picture, and
for a lorg tiihe it retrained at
his very threshold, as It were, a
silent evidence of his former in
fanny. So has each human be-
ing an Invisible painter at his
elbow, Painting on the souls
canvas a irecogd of the acts and
scenes Of life, depicting the
passions of his career with an
intensity that at Some future
day will haunt with their truth
ful denunciations and biting
rebukes. Happy for us, then,
if such dark somber scenes are
few, and their ftful, shoulder
ing fires are eclipsed by fairer
and more holy scenes, when we
gaze back on the panorama of
our past lives, and review our
career before entering upon an
either one of greater capabiIi-
ties! Happy for us, then, if
our race after happiness has
not been a mere scramble after
riches, and if we have not
groveled SO long in the earth
beneath our feet that we have
lost sight of the beautiful skies
above us. Yes, happy indeed
if we have no haunting picture
of glaring misdeed, or clouded
hope, orperverted aspiration TO
psint its ghoulish finger ever
at us, or greet US with its sickly
grin of malicions torment, as
we turn this way and that in a
vain endeavor to escape its up
braidings.

ABOUT NosEs.-The nose.
acts like a cHstom-house officer
to the system. 1t is highly
sensitive to the odor of the
most poisonous substances
1t readily detects hemlock hen
bane, monk's-hood aud the
plants containing prussic acid;
it recognized the foetid smells
of drains, and warns us not to
smell the polluted air. The
nose is so sensitive that it dis
tinguishes air containing the
200,000th part of a grain of the
otto of rose, or the 5000, ,000th
part of grain of musk. 1t tells
us in the morning that our bed
rooms are impure, and catches
the fragrance of the morning
air, and conveys to us the invi-
tation of the flowers to go forth
into the fields and inhale their
sweet breath. To be led by the
nose has hitherto been used as
a phrase of reproach; but to
have a good nose, and to fol-
low its guidance, is one of the
safest and shortest ways to the
enjoyment of health.

Plain Talk.

There are God-given energies
in the nature of woman which
only now and then shine to IL
Illuminate the world with the
light Of her true individuality.
Among these is a spirit of
self-protection and accountable
ity for her action, which inspir-
es woman to admit that she
causes many of the tro. .bies
which intrude upon the hearth
and fender of domestic happi-
ness.
Love of admiration, vanity,
and idelness prove the downfall
of scores of otherwise we'll
meaning woman, and when
they look back over the gradu-
al decent of their course to ruin,
few married women can, with
truth, say that men misled them.
They knew the way and were
criminally careless of their ac-
tions; indulging in graceful,
delicate allurements to attract
men to follow after.
A married women who as
serts that she was led away from
the paths of honesty and purity
entirely against her own incli-
nations, proves herself a fool.

Singular Retribution.
AFTER EIGHT YEARS WAITING

Of the Blue, and a short dis
tance from Santa Fe, were
thrown into high excitement By
the sudden death of "a young
man from Franklin county,
Kansas, named Conovef Aims.
worth, who was found by a ne.
gro servant of a farmer on the
Blue, seated upright against a
tree, dead and cold. At first
the negro thought he had been
frozen while asleep, SO calm
appeared the corpse. The
alarm was given, and the stiff
and apparently frozen corpse
carried to a farm house close
by. In. the coat pocket of Aims
worth was a bottle labeled
"Tincture Opii." Letters were
found upon his person address
ed to Mrs. d. S. Ainsworth,
Franklin, Douglas county,
Kansas, and another addressed
to a young lady whose name
we withhold, aud who has been
the object Of Ainsworth's affec-
tions for the past two years,
but who has resisted all his i'm
portunities to become his wife.
As neither letter was opened
at the time, their contents will
only be known to those to
whom they were addressed, thu
mother and the fancee.
To Mr.. &c. Berry, of john
son county, we are indebted for
the following outline of the
causes that led to this rash act
of self destruction:
Aiasworth was a member Of
band of free-booters during the
war, and though young and
not more than eighteen years
of age, was one Of the moS5
daring of Jennison's scouts, and
by his temerity and cunning
many nests of guerrillas Were
diseomfitted and their rendez-
vous destroyed. It so happen
ed that Ainsworth, while carry
ing dispatches from Gel. An
thony to Jennison, then ia
Kansas City, in the winter of
1861, stopped at the house of
a rebel farmer, and discovered
it to be the headquarters of a
party of Dick Yeager's guerfil-
las. He managed to escape
into the woods, leaving his
horse to escape down the roac.
The following day Aims
worth guided a party of the
Third Wisconsin cavalry to the
guerrillas' base ofsupplies, and
when they left it was o heap of
smouldering ruins. Nothing
was saved by the family ex-
cepting a bed, and the same
bedding given to the woman
and a little girl, whose indig-
nation and tears so amused
young Ainsworth. that he made
sport of her distress and frus-
trated her attempts to save
some trifing trinkets from the
flames.
The next time they met was
two years ago, at the Olathe
Fair, when Ainsworth was sc
smitten by the beauty of the
handsome rustic maiden, ht
