Bro. Searle, Grand Visitor and Lectu
rer of the District of Columbia, says,
with truth, :" No one should accept an
Office unless he has an inclination to study
and obtain Masonic knowledge; to make
himself thoroughly familiar with the
workings of the institution; to perfect
himself in the ritualistic lectures and
Masonic ceremonies, that he may thereby
be able to do credit to himself, and honor
to the office to which he is chosen.
Neither should he accept of the office
unless he is satisfied that his business will
allow him sufficient time to devote and
attend to the duties of the Office.

THE HORSE SHoE.-A STORY FOR
BoYs.-A farmer went to town one day,
accompanied by his son, little Thomas.
''See," said he to him ON the way,
:" there is broken horseshoe in the road
pick it up and put it in your pocket"
ooh! no, father, replied Thomas,
cit isn't worth while to stop and pick it
up"
His father, answering nothing, picked
it up and put it in his own pocket. He
sold it to the blacksmith of the next vii
lage for three farthings, and bought some
with the money.
After this they continued their jour
ney, the sun was burning hot. Neither
house, nor tree, nor spring were any
where to be seen. Thomas suffered with
thirst. and had great difficulty in keeping
up with his father.
The latter, then, as if by accident, let
fall a cherry. Thomas picked it up with
as much eagerness as if it had been gold,
and put it in his mouth. A few PAGES
further ON the father let fall another
cherry, which Thomas seized with the
same haste The game continued until
all the cherries had been used up.
When the last had been eaten, the
father turned to his son smiling and said
to him: "You now see that if you had
been willing to stop once to pick up the
horseshoe, you would not have been
obliged to do it a hundred times for the
cherries. From the French.

Children hunger perpetually for new
ideas, and the most pleasant way Of re-
ception Is by the voice and the ear, not
the eye and the printed page. The one
mode is natural, the other artificial.
Who would not rather listen than read
We not unfrequently pass by in the pa
pers full report of a lecturer, and then
90 and pay our money to hear the self
same words uttered. An audience will
listen closely from the beginning to the
end of an address, which not one in
twenty of those present would read with
the same attention. This is emphat-
ically true of children. They will learn
with pleasure from the lips of parents
what they deem it drudgery to study in
the books; and even if they have the
misfortune to be deprived of the educa-
tiond advantages which they desire, they
cannot fail to grow up intelligent, if they
enjoy in childhood and youth the privi-
lege of listening daily to the conversation
of intelligent people
We sometimes see parents, who are
the life of every company which they en-
ter, dull, silent, uninterestlng at home
among their children. If they have not
mental activity and mental stories suffic-
for both, let them first use them for their
own households. Ireland exports beef
and wheat, and lives on potatoes; and
they fare as poorly who reserve their So
cial charms for companies abroad, and
keep their dullness for home consump-
ton. 1t is better to instruct children;
and to make them happy at home, than
it is TO charm strangers or to amuse
friends. A silent house is dull place
for young people, a place from which
they will escape if they can. They will
talk or think of being 'shut up" there,
and the youth who does not love home is
in danger. Make home, then, a cheerful
and pleasant spot. Light it up with a
cheerful conversation. Father, mother,
talk your best at home.-Landmark.

Fast Borses and Fast Women-Judgc Bar.
nard's Opinion.
In his recent charge to the Grand Jury
Judge Barnard gave it as his opinion that ''it
is safe to say, and my observation iustifies
me in saying that nearly all the fast horses and
fast women in the city of New York are sup
ported out of the city treasury" What field
of Investigation is here opened to the Commit
tee Of Seventy! Furthermore, says the learned
Judge, ''for the purpose of stopping this, 80
that some Of these men holding snecure Offices
may go to work and get an honest living if
they can, or else take, in their cases, their
more legitimate employment-the highway, SO
that we can send them to the gallows or the
State Prison" Good advice, this, to the Grand
Jury but the evil presented 80 wildly before
them, in its glaring enormities, can be reached
only by the Legislature in a law abolishing
these sinecures, and prohibiting any man, di-
rectly or indirectly, holding more than one
public Office at the same time, and requiring
a monthly publication of the pay roll in detail,
with all the other expenditures Of every de-
partment Of the city government. This is the
way, and the only way, in which we can reach
these fast fancy men, revealing in the spoils
of the city treasury and luxuriating in the fun
Of the racing ground with their fast women
and their fast horses.

The Cuban Struggle for Iudcpeudence

The Cuban Struggle for Independence.
Tomorrow the Clbans of this city are
going to celebrate the third anniversary OF
their struggle for independence. From all
accounts we have received the struggle In Cuba
is fairly over, and the proposed demonstration
is, therefore, meaningless, unless accom-
panied by determined effort to renew the
fight. Where is the use of pyrotechnical dis
plays, Of flags, emblems and flights of
rhetoric, if all the enthusiasm is to end in
small supply OF stamps, as has invariably
been the case on former occasions ? The
Cubans ought to know by this time that
there has been enough of bombast. What are
words without deeds9 Fine speeches might
bring q few dollars into an exhausted ex-
chequer, but they will never free Cuba from
Spanish rule. There are thousands of Cubans
in this country. By their own reckoning there
are many more thousands actively engaged in
fighting the Spaniards, and, according to the
same authority, the Spanish army has, by
sickness and desertion, dwindled down to an
insignificant number.
What is, then, to hinder the Cubans from
being victorious except their own disinclina-
ton to fight? We are all eagerness to record
their victories ? But, truth to say, there are
none to record. From time to time we re-
ceive fantastic, semi-fabulous accounts of whole
Spanish corps annihilated but somehow or
other these stories never come to be substanti
ated. What has become Of that famous Ven-
eZuelan expeditOn which accordinr To Cuban
accounts, drove the Spanish troops before it
like flock Of sheep? How came the patriots,
after all their victories, TO abandon the district
of Camaguey, over the possession of which
they have fought for three long years? There
are thousands of Cubans in this city to keep
up the war cry, but there are none to carry on
the war. Their generals" for the greater
part heroes Of the quill rather than of
the sword, and the forum, prefer to
parade their martial bearing on Broadway to
leading their hosts on the battle field. They
have either lost heart or like better to talk
than to fight. We do not wish to be under
stood as urging the Cubans to continue the
struggle, but we do wish that they may cease
their noisy agitations, unless they act up to
their words. The people of the United States
are ready to sympathize with any sincere
struggle for national independence, but they
cannot be expected to waste their sympathies
upon hollow professions.
