The Pstrons Of Husbsndry propose in 4
thousand ways 70 put stop TO this i'm
povcrishing policy.
But, says straight jacket your order ID
secret organization. To be sure 1t Is,
and is therefore to be priced otherwise,
il would have no cOhesivencss. Ask any
man ii his most valuable thoughts arc
not kept to himself! WIZ do all dcIib-
erativc Odics hold their executive scs-
siOns" (thcir most important mcctings)
in sccrct Ask the merchant why his
" cost mark" is an enigma! Wherefore
arc VIC taught that our right hands should
not know about the doings Of our left
70 nv mind this objection is futile.
But where is the necessity for secrc-
cy? Why cannot the workings OF the
order be open to the gaze Of all men
Men who do good only arc never afraid
to have their actions scrutinized. Ger
tainly not. But wise men keep their
own counsel, and OF what they do the
world knows nothing until il is done.
The general who cOnccivcs a great stra-
gctic movement confides his plans only
to few trusty followers, and when any
business Of great moment comes before
congress it sits in secret session. The
general docs not conccal his plans, nor
congress its deliberations, through fear
of the worlds scrutiny. bcsausc the safe
ty of the interests involved demands
that secrecy be observed. In like man
ncr, then, the Patrons conceal their de-
Iiberations. because by SO doing they in
sure greater security and efficiency IN
their workings. Thus, also, arc bad
men prevented awaiting themselves OF
the advantages of the order to impose
upon the crcdulity of mankind. Secret
societies, TOO, have always been more
permanent than others, and will flourish
where the latter die out.
But you ad it women, says ano her (;
10 you advocate wOman's rights! For
lunatcly the constitution prccludcs the
of any political or religious
in the work of the order, il
r. quircs a certain proportion OF females
in every grange. This wise provision
will enhance its social worth. The pres
cncc of woman will give to the order
virtue, dignity and character. Were
farmers never seen in their associations
with the outside world except in the
company Of women, they themselves
would DC far purcr men. IndOlcncc, ig
norancc, profanity, vulsarity, and all
the bascr emotions Of mans nature are
ever held in abcyancc in the presence Of
pure and refined women.
The Patrons Of Husbandry incalcatc
charity, sobricty, energy, industry, econ
Dmy, and honesty. Hence, any farmer
becoming Patron cannot he injured IN
person or estate, but may, by co-opcra-
lion with his fellows, greatly benefit
himself, and extend his bcncficent infu-
encc TO those around him.
Ana in view Of the situation, VIC ask,

Snyder kept beer saloon some years
ago "over the Rhine" Snyder was a
pOnderous Teuton of very irascible
temper-"s sudden and quick in quar-
rel get mad in minute. Neverthe-
less his saloon was . great resort for
the boys, partly because of the excel
lency Of his beer, and partly because
they liked to chafe old Snyder" as they
called him for although his bark was
terrible, experience had taught them
that he wouldn't bite.
One day Snyder was missing, and it
was explained by his frau who
"jerked !" the beer that day he had
"gone out fishing nit der boys" The
next day one of the boys who was par
ticularly fond of roasting" Snyder,
dropped in to get a glass of beer, dis
covered Snyder's nose, which was . big
one at any time, swollen and blistered ty
the sun, until it looked like dead ripe
tomato.
"wby, Snyder, what's tho matter
with your nose :" said the caller.
al been out fishing nit der boys" re-
piled Snyder, laying his finger tcndcrly
against probocis; "thc sun it pcs hot
like ash der tiful, unit purns my nose.
Nice nose, don't it," And Snyder
viewed it with look Of comical sadness,
in the little mirror back of his bar. 1t
entered at once into the head of the mis-
chicvious fellow in front of the bar to
play ajoke upon Snyder, SO he went
out and collected half dozen of his
comrades, with whom he arranged that
they should drop in the saloon and ask
Snyder, " Whats the matter with his
nose ?" to see how he would stand it.
The man who put up tho job went in
first with a companion, and seating them
selves at q table, called for beer.l Sny-
der brought the beer to them, and the
new conner exclaimed rs he saw him
" Snyder, what's the mater with your
nosc!"
"I yust tell your frint here l poem

Another boy rushcs in. "Hallo, boys,

catch q sudden glimpse OF Snydcr's
nose, looks wonderful moment, then
bursts out laughing -ha!-ha !-ha -

Snyder, of course can't see any fun in
having burnt nose, or having it laughed

ic.

In consequence of Stokes infatua-
ton with Jessie Mansfield, his wife
procured q divorce. The same steamer
that carried that document to her in
Europe, carried also the news of the
murder Of Fisk. On account Of the
same, Mrs. Sutton, a sister of Stokes,
had been discarded by her husband
for adhering SO strongly to the fortunes
of her hapless brother. The senior
Stokes has been rendered bankrupt
thereby, and one brother, promising
young man of great ability, died some
three weeks ago, of grief and shame,
while the remaining members Of the
family are in the deepest distress.
Stokes, the murderer, was, not many
years ago, handsome and affection
ate boy, and the pride Of his parents.

again looks far beyond the confines Of
the car. into emptiness. She knows
she is expected by the other women
in the car to remain unconscious OF
their presence while they study her
clothes. They Immediately begin.
They stare at her dress, her sacque,
her hat, her back hair, her jewelry,
hef gloves, her bows and ribbons, and
her miscellaneous millinery, until the
entire costume is photographed in
their memories, and the price estina--
ted, and critical opinion formed,
with resolution to have q bonnet of
the SAME kind, or a body cut upon the
same pattern.
When the young lady thinks that
this examination is concluded, she
becomes conscious again, and begins
to look around and see how all the
other women dressed. She examines
each one in detail, and in few mo-
ments she is in possession of oil the
necessary information. Presently i
Young man with whom she is ac-
quainted gets in the car, and he stands
clutching the strap and trying in vain
to keep himself in graceful attitude
while he converses with her. All the
women begin to wonder whether she
cares particularly for him-and. as
she knows their thoughts, she is so
distant that the young man becomes
more embarrassed than ever, and
makes renewed struggles to maintain
graceful position. When she wishes
to get out she rises, smootfles down
her frippery again, indulges in two or
three springs, and dances along to the
platform. The conductor again con-
siders it imperaively necessary to
press the small of her back. She
dances down the steps, dances to the
pavement, and then dances along the
street, fully aware of the fact that the
women in the car have all turned round
to look at her, and serenely confident
in the assurance that she has on good
clothes, which fit her splendidly. As
she disappears the conductor turns to

The Girl Of the Period.

We have sketched, in the following,
the Young Woman Of the Period rs
she appears in the street car: She
stands upon the curb, with a little
springy, up-and-down motion, as if
she had spiral springs in the soles of
her CATERS. As the car approaches
she sticks the point of her closed para
sol in the direction of the driver, with
a small jerk. The car stops. She
gives one or two more little springy
motions before she leaves the pave
ment, and then dances to the car. As
she ascends the step, the conductor
seems to think it absolutely necessary
to her safety to place one of his hands
in the small Of her back, while he
rings the bell with the other. She
enters the car, with the spiral springs
still bobbing her up and down; and,
as all the seats dre full, she stands
holding her hands in front of her, and
gazing off into illimitable space, as il
the one idea, which never entered her
mind, and which never could enter it
under any possible circumstances, is,
that some man will rise and offer her
his seat. But young man in the
corner does rise, and immediately the
fellow next to him moves quickly into
the corner, as if the performance OF
that man9uver had formed the subject
of anxious thought during many years
of his life. To get a corner seat, in
deed, would seems to be the chief end
of man, if we remark the avidity
with which human beings in street
cars seek that object.
When the young man rises, the
young lady suddenly becomes con-
scious that there is something nearer
to her than the horizon, and she gives
two or three more little bounces, and
says, "Keep your seat!" The young
man is embarrassed, and says he is
going to get out soon; whereupon the
fair being dances toward the seat,
sinks into it, and pretends that the
fact of the existence Of any young man
who once occupied that seat, and who
is going to get out has entirely faded
from her consciousness. She smoothes
down her dress and its supplemental

Application having been made to
Governor Kellogg by the New Orleans,
Mobile and Texas Railroad Company
for the inspection, rs required by law,
Of ten miles of the. track of said rail-
road, finished, running westward from
Bayou Lafourche, and the same hav-
ing been inspected by NJ. JEFF. Thomp-
son, Chief State Engineer, and certi-
fed to as having. been completed in
accordance with law, we take. pleasure
in publishing the information, because
it is evidence that work on this line is
still going on. We ara enabled to
state, further, that good deal Of work
has been done on the road from the
point to where it is completed, and
Vermilionville, about fOrty -four miles.
A good deal Of work has also been
done Oh this road between Vermilion-
vile and the Sabine, q distance of
about one hundred aud twenty miles.
Over six hundred men are workinson
the road between Donaldsonville and
Vermilionville, and the whole work is
under the superintendent of Major
Rogers, one Of the best engineers and
most energetic railroad workers in the
country.
When the road shall have been COM
pleted to the Teche the chief difficult
ties of the construction Of this road
will have been surmOunted. That
part Of the country through which the
road passes, lying between the lower
Grand river and the Teche river, is
low, swampy and covered with dense
forests. Between these points the line
crosses many bayous which will have
to be bridged. We understand that
twelve miles Of this section have the
embankment approaching completion.
The whole distance Of this swamp
country is about thirty miles. When
this shall have been completed the
balance of the road, from the Teche
to the Sabine, will be comparatively
an easy job, the country through which
this passes being mostly prairie.
The last Legislature having granted
an extension Of time for the compile
ton of this road, we trust the company
will exert itself, as we have reason to
believe it will, in giving New Orleans
railroad connection with Texas at as
early date as possible. And we may
as well remark right here, that as the
last Legislature passed an act incor-
porating the Louisiana Central Rail
way Company to build railroad
between Vermilionville and Shreve-
port there is a good prospect of rail
CONNECTION between here and Shreve-
port, if Governor Kellogg signs the
act. We have reason to believe the
gentlemen who have exerted them
selves to gain the right of way from
the State for this road mean to build
it without delay when they are au-
thorized to commence the work. AS
Houston and Shreveport are likely to
be important railroad centres, railroad
connection berweens those points and
New Orleans must enhanceits business
in great degree. 1t is, therefore,
with much satisfaction we announce a
prospect of the consummation Of these
great works.

IF workman, who is paid to work

Of the master, or foreman, to smoke a
pipe and read newspaper for one hour
out of the ten, he steals one tenth Of his
days wages. He does tho very thing that
the shopkeeper would do who gave him
fourteen ounces of butter or sugar instead
of roun1, or nine yards of calico when
the bill charged ten. An assistant in
shop, who instead ofcaring for his masters
interests as if they were his ewn, puts no
heart into his work. exercises no ingeuui.
ty, treats customers earelessly instead of
courtoously. and so diminishes the chances
OF their coming again, gets his salary on
false pretenses, does not give the kind Of
service which he knows his employer ex-
poets, and which he would expect if he
were an employer himself He cannot but
know that his services are not worth
one.half what they would be if he did his
best. Instead of earning the $50 or 44o

not earn more than Els or EGO, and
