Through nm Important Railroad Bill.
For years past desperate EFFORTS have been made

"The Robbers" had, Of course, to go
through those alterations and modiflca

to Young authors, but which Schiller, with
the humility that generally accompanies
real ia ent, submitted to quietly. 1t was
arranged that the "Rohbtrs" was to he
brought out or certain day at the
Mannheim Theatre. This being accom-,
plished, Schiller was now seized with an
irrepressible wish 10 see his play acted.
He fought against it for while, but the
temptation was too strong for him, and
one evening he slipped out of Stuttgart
and managed to get unnoticed over the
frontiers of Wur,tmburg His journey
was as romantlcal J uncomfortableas ever
young poet could desire. He lost his
way, and had to spend one night in 3
wood. His purse was low, 80 that hi
meals had to be very limited. At las
he re;ched Mannheim, where Schwan anc
Dalberg received him with patronizins

out before full house with great APP

THE PRoGREsS OF THE EARTH SYs-
TEN 1t has been q source Of surprise to
ourselves and TO all who were enthusiastic
in the belief that the earth closet would
effect rapid reform in the habits and
economies of our people, that its progress
has thus far been, comparatively, slow !;
but on reflection it seems not unnatural
that this should have been the case. Unit!
now, the system has been adopted mainly
by the better educated and more inttlli
gent classes The masses - those for
whom it really promises the greatest
benefts-are slow to change their habits
in any respect The Inconvenience, the
wastetulness, the danger to health, and
the annoying exposure eff the system thar
prevails, especially in villages and in the
country, and~above all in the Southern
States, are dcpIorable in the extreme
bur they have SO long been accepted as a
necessary evil that those who endure them
nave come, Ivy long habit, to disregard
them, and to look with indifference upon
any plan proposed for their avoidance
Tie means for the applica, ION of the re-
form are SO perfectly within the reach Of
even the poorest people,that the bringing
of the closet within the house itself, can
not fail sooner or later to approve itself
tc the minds OF FL.
If it were necessary to the establishment
Of a satisfactory earth closet, that the
patented apparatus should be adopted,
even the moderate cost that this would
entail would be o sufficient reason t.
deter many persons But as the full
essential benefit Of the 81 stem lies within
the easy reach Of sill who Can proyid'
themselves with earth nf almost any DIES.
criptioh, or with cod ashes, without the
least necessity for the outlay Of money, il
is certainly reasonable to suppose that
the amendment of our customs, which hu,
taken so strong n hold among those whc
are III more comfortable clrcu Instances
will III Cue time secure universal adoption
And when we reflect that the benefits q,
he use of earth in stables are hardly les,
; marked than those OF its use in closets, w,
are impatient to see its influence brought
to bear, TO check the appalling waste %
