FEMALE EQUESTRIANIS0I.
Grace Graee'coods Experiment and ,shat
She Says About H.

From the Home journal.
The decision Of the question how ladies
shall sit ON the horse rests, Of course,
with themselves. The arguments in the
matter, what physicians, Psychologists
and practical horsemen assert regarding
the superior healthfulness, ease and safety
Of the natural mode, all this is beyond
cavil. There is now lacking only the
actual experience of horse-women to CON
vince their doubling sisters-with, Of
course, proper Inauguration of the fash
ion for the throng of fashionables A
correspondent tells us that it is a com
mon sight to see ladies riding astride in
the larger towns Of Wisconsin and from
still further toward the setting sun there
comes a note Of example from one whose
word will certainly command the respect
full attention of every lady in the land.
No one will suspect Grace Greenwood of
a weakness for assuming mannish ways,
or of sacrificing taste and delicacy for
mere vulgar notoriety. Ia her journey
ing lately in the Yosemite Valley, she,
with three other ladies, rode all the way
from South MERGED and back on horse
back, and cavalier fashion. Side saddles
we're not to be had, and how the ladies
accepted the situation, and even liked it,
the authoress thus writes
with tear for the modest traditions
OF our sex, and shudder at the though;
of the figures we should present, we four
brave women accepted the situation, and,
/ for the nonce, rode as a woman used To
ride in the happy, heroic days, before
Satan, for her ENHANCEMENT and enslave-
ment, invented trained skirts, corsets,
and side saddles. We were fortunately
provided with strong mountain suits, Of
dark flannel and waterproof, which fitted
us for this emergency, and for any rough
climbing we had fancy for, and there
was not a little. Well, after a trial Of
some fifteen miles the first day and TWEEN
ty-six the second, we all came to the con.
clusiOn that this style of riding is the
safest, easiest, and, therefore, the mos
sensible for long mountain expeditions
and for steep, rough and narrow trails
If nature intended woman 10 ride horse
back at all she doubtless intended il should
be after this fashion otherwise we shOulC
have been sort Of land variety of th'
mermaid"

EDITORS OF The CLARION -
enclose you my opinion in the case that

The opinion was delivered in writing as
it now appears, from the bench, in the reg
ular course of business. at t he late term of
my Corinth Court. Your correspondents
who happened to be in Corinth at the tune,
commented on it, in very uncomplimentary
terms, in TIE CLARION. In answer to ply
complaints, in private letter to you, you
kindly offered to publish the opinion, and
let it speak for itself l embrace your Of
fer as the only means left me, 10 rescue my
self from the odium which your CORES
pondenG'5 comments were likely to draw
down upon me from the bench and tar of
the State.

consent to the publication of paper which

From the Pittsburg Gazette.
Sixteen years ago a man who was we'll
known in this community then, and who
has brother on the police force, was
living pleasantly with a young wife and
two children. Suddenly he disappeared,
and was not heard of for many years,
when Il faint rumor reached the ears of
his wife that he was living in California
But no communication took place be-
tween him and his wife, and she struggled
on through all these years, working hard
to support and educate her children, and
by means of great sacrifices and rigid
economy, she finally found herself in the
possession of a snug home on Hope
street, with her two boys sufficiently
grown to be able to assist in her support
A few days ago the long absent hus-
band, with brushy whiskers and sun
Drowned skin, as suddenly appeared at
the door of his wife's residence as he had
left home long years ago. When he
came into the room where his wife was,
they Immediately recognized each other
and he rushed towards her ready to be
embraced with open arms. But she was
not in an embracing mood.

points of admiration, and are not afraid to
trust him. He is man of large. clear in

Northerner by birth, twenty years or SO
residence in this county has made him one

Hon. Roderick Seal, who was elected
by large majority over DR.. Caleb Lind
sey in the election for Representative in
the lower House of the Legislature from
this district, will certainly go to jackson
in January, when the Legislature meets,
and claim his seat. His disabilities have
been removed, and he thinks he is legally
entitled to his place to which he was
elected. 1t will be gratifying news to
people if Mr.. Seal does secure his seat,
as the man Lindsey has virtually done
nothing for the district he pretends to
represent, but has never failed to answer
at roll call and to draw his pay.

MILITARY BULLETIN.

Six companies of regular artillery have
passed South for garrison duty in South
Carolina and Georgia. Some of the
troops now there are to be transferred
elsewhere, on the ground that some of
the officers have became too much mixed
up in the local police complications of the
former States. These troops were brought
at great expense from San Francisco.
