SILENT MEN. Washington never made a
speech. In the zenith of his fame he once
attempted it, failed, and gave it up, confused
and abashed. In framing the Constitution of
the United States, the labor was almost who'll
ly performed in committee Of the whole, OF
which George Washington was, day after
day, chairman, and he made but two speech
ss, in each of which he used but very few
words. The convention, however, acknow-
lodged the master spirit, and historians affirm
that had it not been for his personal populari-
ty and the thirty words of his first speech,
pronouncing the best that could be unitedup-
on, The Constitution would have been reject
ed by the people. Thomas Jefferson never
made speech he couldn't do it. Napoleon,
whose executive ability is without a parallel,
said that his greatest difficulty was in finding
men of deeds rather than of words. When
asked how he maintained his influence over
his superiors in age and experience, when
commander-in-chief of an army in Italy, he
said, by reserve" The greatness of man
is not measured by the length of his speeches
and their number.

WOMEN IN ENGLAND.-In the Table Talk
of the last number of Appletons' Journal the
progress of the woman's-rghts movement in
England is thus stated:
In modified form, woman suffrage has
been recognized among our English cousins;
for they may now vote for parish officials,
who are political, and not, as their designa-
ton would imply, ecclesiastical officials, they
have a voice, too, in the choice of the newly
constituted school boards and the question of
their admission to the national universities,
as regular undergraduates, is evidently only
one of time. The English Post Office authori-
ties have taken step which, indirectly at
least, encourages what is broadly known in
that county as the ''woman's movement"
by appointing forty young women to positions
in the Saving Bank Office, which is attached
to that department, and this is announced to
be only Introductory to similar appointments
throughout all the branches of public service
under the control Of the postmaster-general.

WALLPAPER AND DIsEAsE.-The Lon
don Builder says:
Some recent experiments prove the defec-
tiyeness of the ordinary process of dsinfect-
ing dwelling rooms, after infectious and con-
tagious diseases, without at the same time
stripping off the paper and washing the walls
and painted surfaces with caustic soda. In
Manchester, nearly all the men engaged in
this duty have had fever or infectious disease
although the houses previously to their visits
had been disintected with chlorine, carbolic
acid, &c. 1t is believed that contagious mat
ter is retained in the paper, particularly when
a number of layers have accumulated on the
walls. nsome cases the men removed as many
as fifteen coats of paper; and they describe a
fusty odor, which ofitself may give rise tofevcr
The recurrence of fever in the same houses
in Manchester, it is said, has greatly dimin-
ished since the introduction of this thorough

POETRY.


Wrapped in peaceful stiffness Nature lies,
AS if while 20 zing on the quiet skies,
She had looked past their depths, and met uou
eyes,
And in that gaze grown calm;
As IT, awed by the solemn sight she lay,
Or, fallen asleep, dreaming life away,
Singing unconscieusly by night and day
A reverential psalm
Half eiled in golden light of shmmering air,
The landscape stretches, wonderously fair'
No trace of pang beauty anywhere;
Nature is in her prime.
Tn richest robes the hills and woods appear,
The lakes and springs lie motonless and clear,
Rulcd b, the fairest queen OF all the year
Beautiful harvest time.
The silver river, winding through the lea,
The singing birds on every greenwood free, r.
The music of the never silent tree,
The deep and silent wood,
Are never changing witnesses that He
Who made all these fair things so graciously,
Is mighty in his love, and prayerfully
whisper, "God is good"

Fair Forest City, hail to thee
Whose beauty fills mine eyes to weepingi
From that old world beyond the sea-
Where Time his centuries hath been reaping,
come to greet thee in my turn,
And place my future in thy keeping.
With fear of no unkind return;
Nor can my soul the praise refuse
The righteous praise thy beauties earn.
Thy streets are noble avenues
Across which shadows gaunt are living:
Through all the day they sleep or muse;
Or hear the tiny fountains playing -
Or wonder what the world is saying.
Once to the land ancient of days
They brought song-book full of singing,
And ever since the tuneful lays
Like many bells abroad are ringing
And peoples praise the Singers mind
Whose fame its flight afar is winpng.
But now l think thereon, find
They verify know not what they say.
His rhymes are sweet after their kind
But where was learnt the lulling lay?
How can they know whe have not stood
As we do on his land to-day?
Behold city in a wood,
Where those are blest who 60 and come;
1t must have tuned his heart to good:
And here this Poet had his home
And frst-fruits of his harmony.
