4 CHILD's HOP.-It was certainly
pretty, but it was very soter spectacle.
Children are naturally gay, and they
frolic and dance and romp with will.
But childhood seemed to have been
eliminated from these little folks. They
were salIow and anxious and worn.
And how stupid and sleepy they must
have been next morniug! And how un-
willingly, with no shining morning
face, they must have crept to SCHOOL,
And what poor little abused bodies they
are, and how surely the freshness and
charm of life are being destroyed for
them! Yet Mrs. Add sends her children,
and what can Mrs. Bad, Cad and Dad do
but send theirs? And if Mrs. Thomp-
sons daughter has a silk dress caught
up and flounced with lace and flowers,
/ know, my dear, that you do not wish
to have your daughter disgraced, and I
take care that our dear girl shall be as
splendid as any Of them! These are the
lessons the children learn, and in turn,
rs parents teach. And it is curious that
the American theory of everybody's be-
ing as good as anybody has this perver-
sion, that everybody must dresSand do
as anybody does. Everybody who
yields to the mania of extravaganza for
CHiluAch hldhes IL HdIueI AOI every OOuy
else not to yield. But there is no use in
preaching about it, if only the pleasure
of your company is requested at child's
hop. Then you see yourself There Is
nothing more melancholy than such
spectacle at watering-place hotels. The
forward rudeness of the poor little over
dressed figures is pitiful. The breezy
bloom of health upon the cheek,
the plain, simple dress, the art
less ardOr of-all that is loveliest i'm the
lovely age is wanting at the child's hon.

ITEMS EVERY MAN SHOULD READ
We have probably all of us met with in
stances in which a word heedlessly
spoken against the reputation of woman
has been magnified by malicious minds
until the cloud has become dark enough
to Overshadow her whole existence.
To those who are accustOmed-not
necessarily from bad motives, but from
hOughtlessness-tO speak lightly of
women, we recommend three hints as
worthy Of consideration:
Never use a lady's name in an i'm
proper time or in mixed company.
Never make any assertions about her
that you think are not true, or illusions
that you think she herself would blush
to hear.
When you meet men who do not
scruple to make use of a woman's name
in reckless and unprincipled manner,
shun them, for they are the very worst
members of the community-men lost
to every sense of honor, every feeling OF
humanity.
Many a good wOman's character has
been ruined and her heart broken by 4
lie, manufactured by some villain and
repeated where it should not have been
and in the presence of those whose little
Judgment could not deter them from
circulating the foul and Dragging re-
port. A slander Is soon propagated, and
the smallest thing derogatory TO a wom-
ans character will fly to the wings OF
the wind and magnify rs it circulates,
until its mOnstrous weight crushes the
poor unfortunate victim.
Respect the name Of woman, fOr
your mother and sisters are women, and
rs you would have their fair name un-
tarnished and their lives unembittered
by the slander's rising tongue, heed the
i'll that your own words may bring upon
the mother, the sister, or the wife OF
some fellow creature.

SOMETHING TO ToUcH THE HEART

SOMETHING TO Touch THE HEART.
Celeridse relates a story to this effect:
Alexander, during his march into
Africa, came to a people dwelling in
peaceful huts, who knew neither war
nor conquest. Gold being offered to
him he refused it, saying that his
sole object was to learn the manners
and customs of the inhabitants. "Stay
with us" says the Chief, $50 long as it
pleaseth thee"
During this interview with the Afri-
can Chief two of his subjects brought a
cause before him for judgment. The
dispute was this:-rhe one had bought
of the other piece of ground, which,
after the purchase, was found to contain
treasure, for which he found himself
bound to pay. The other refused to re-
ceive anything, stating that when he
sold the ground he sold it with all it
might be found to afford.
Said the Chief, looking at the one,
"You have 4 son." and TO the other,
"You have n daughter; let them be mar
ried, and the treasure be given as
dOwry.n
Alexander was astOnished.
"And WHAT said the Chief, "wOuld
have been the decision in your coun-
try?''
ave should have dismissed the par
ties" said Alexander, "and sieZed the
treasure for the kings use"
"And does the sun shine on your
country ~ said the Chief; ''does the
rain fall there? are there any cattle
there which feed upon herbs and green
grass ?n
Certainly" said Alexander.
"Ahri said the Chief, "it is for the
sake of those innocent cattle that the
Great Being permits the sun to shine,
the rain to fall, and the grass to grow in
your country"

MARRIAGE AND WOMEN.-A recent
writer has discovered an alarming de-
crease in marriages, and he says it is
because women are becoming unpopular.
Their extravaganza, their stinginess,
also plide, lack of head and heart, and
bigotrv. these and other failings are
given as n reason OF the decline of
cbivalry and rise Of dislike. There is
probably one woman i'm the world whom
the writer likes, and the difficulty is the
liking is not reciprOcated. Hence, etc.
But the Chicago Tribune holds that
there is truth in the remark, and pro-
ceeds to explain it:
"Whatever women are,n says the
Tribune, "men are largely responsible
for. The latter have chosen to make
them dolls, and they have, to say truth,
offered no strenuous opposition. \
woman who thinks is a woman who
dares. Her efforts to be something more
than n beautiful animal have been met
with derision. Such treatment natu-
rally drives her to extremes. She cul-
tivates the head at the expense of the
heart. Then we sigh for the good old
wife and mother of a century ago, and
ignore the fact that she was an ig-
noranlus, who would be painfully out
of place now. 1t is cheering sign that
so many women have overcome these
obstacles, and fairly forced their way
into deserved prominence. The whole
sex will follow them in course of time.
We may, Justly enough perhaps, sneel
at the average woman of to-day, but hei
granddaughter will be something more
than 4 housekeeper or Nurse"

The Boston Transcript remarks,
touching the subject of ''Noble Wives,'i
that Mr.. Stewards fame began to wane
upon the death of his wife, to whom he
owed the vitalizing currents which bore
him on. Disreali married in 1889, and
at once he began to rise to the statute
he had reached. The NiseounteSs Bea-
contleld is dead, and we shall see how
much this extraordinary man also owed
to the power behind the throne. How
long must 1t be before great women can
bring their powers to bear on first hand.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Tha London
Telegraph of the 18th has o letter from
Capt. Surmont, OF the Vile du Havre de.
nying in total the accusation against him.
self and sailors of cowsrdice and neglect
Of the passengers safety on the occasion
Of the disaster, making counter charges as
follows: Capt. Robertson states accord
ing to you that the Vile Du Havre Is
alone responsible for the disaster which
befel her. When speaking In my report
OF the respective movements oi the two
vessels, had guarded reprieve which
every man Of honorable feeling will ap.
preciate; but II indeed Capt. Robertson
dared TO solve 80 peremptorily in his
own favor this question so grave
and among all others. so obscure
death having snatched away the greatest
part of the witnesses, and especially the
principal one, the officer Of watch OF the
moment Of the collision, / shall repeat
then without tear Of contradiction from
any one skilled In such matters that the
Captain Of the Lochearn sailing close
hauled could by single turn Of the wheel
have gone TO windward and 70 prevented
the catastrophy; that he could have done
so up to the very minute Of the collision,
at the very last moment even, and that he
did not do 1t. Ishould say above all that
according to the testimony OF the survivors
that to the Vile du Havre the lights Of the
Lochearn were for some reason or other
not visible perhaps because as frequently
after long night the wicks Of
the lamps may have been allowed 10
burn down.

CuRAP FAREs.-We understand that
The fare between Wheeling and Washing
too City is now reduced to six dollars via
Pittsburgh, Harrisburg and Baltimore, or,
10 other words, by the Pennsylvania
route. We presume the Baltimore road
will follow the example. The war goes
bavely on. In Cincinnati, tickets to
Washington are advertised OF 50 by the
Baltimore road. This will make the faro
10 New York about $15. OF course all
The other roads will put the price down
10 correspond. Thus we will have what
may be called panic prices. The Columbus
Journal intimates that these prices were
iusugurated by the Baltimore & Ohio road
TO meet the demands Of the panic. We
presume that this Is On egregious error.
They were mainly inaugurated to punish
the Pennsylvania road. Itisone Of those
punishments, however. where q good deal
Of ones own nose has to be cut of In
order to seriously impair the visage Of the
enemy. We Judge that affair slice ia
being taken of the nasal probosces Of
both roads in this little game that they
.te playing. Pert>ps, as the Pennsyl-
vAnia does the larger passenger business
Of the two out OF New York, to Cincin-
