Sion OF the right of cOlored people to occupy

Gred woman, III lstS, bought a hTst-Ciass round
UP ticket from Washington 70 Alexandria and
Aark and at Ale1andIis, after she had entered
a certain car to return, she was rcq iAAi7d 70
take seat in the forward car. but refusing to

fuffcient force to remove her. She then en-
tered the smoking car. which she had been told
to take, and was safely landed in Washing
ton. This suit was brought 70 recover from
Injuries alleged 10 have been received by the
violence used in putting her on, and under
the instructions of the court that she
entitled TO recover. the verdict was in her favor.
The writ Of error maintains that a. the cause OF

and 18th amendments, there Is ne violation OF
any law IN the regulation OF the road by which

the different RAGS and enforced obedience 1t
is besides urged technically that the road is not

! The Stein Mountain Indians. in
the northern part of this county, are
in common with the Pitt River In,l,-
ans. supposed to be on friendly
terms with the Lodocs. General
Schofield, commanding Department
of California. being advised of this
belief. issued special orders, on the
18th instant. to Capt. Henry W~g-
ner, FIRST Cavalry, commanding
Camp McDermit. to move out at

Post Is left in charge of Lieut. Knox
and the remainder OF the troop.
Communication is to be kept up,
daily with the Post. and between the
Pos. and Headquarters at San Fran
cisco by telegraph. As Camp Nc
Dermit is about fifty miles from the
nearest telegraph Office, it will take
at least dozen men to keep mp com

Miss Nsagrysder.

We shall never forget that eve
ming we spent at Mag1u ler's
years ago. We admired Miss
Magruder, and we went around to
see:her. 1t was summer time and
moonlight, and she sat upon the
piazza. The carpenters had been
there that day gluing up the rustic
chairs on the porch, so we took a
seat on the steps in front of Miss
Magruder, where we could gaze
into her eyes, and drink in her
smiles. 1t seems probable that the
carpenters must have upset his
glue pot on the spot where we sat,
for, after enjoying Miss Magruder's
remarks for couple of hours, and
drinking several of her smiles, we
tried to rise for the purpose of 60
ing home, but found that we were
immoveably fixed to the step.
Then Miss Magruder said "don't
be in a hurry" and we told her we
believed we wouldn't. The con-
versation had sadder tone after
that, and we sat there thinking
whether it would be better to ask
Miss Magruder to withdraw while
we disrobed and went home High
land costume, or whether we should
urge her to warm up the poker so
that we could thaw ourselves out,
or whether we should give one ter
rife wrench and then ramble down
the yard backwards. About mid
night Miss Magruder yawned and
said she would go to bed. Then
we suddenly asked her if she
thought her father would have any
affections to lending us his front
steps for few days, because We
wanted to take them home for q
pattern. We think Miss Magurder
must have entertained doubts of
sanity, for she rushed in, called hel
father and screamed. Magurdel
: came down with a double barreled
gun. Then we explained the stu
alton in q whisper, and he procur-
e1 saw and cut out the piece OF
the step to which we were attach
: ed. Then we went home wearing
the patch, and before two o'clocL
crushed out our young love for
, Miss Magurder. We never called
again and she threw herself away
on a dry goods man. There is q
melancholy satisfaction in recall
|. ing these memories of youth, and
of rejecting upon the influence OF
glue upon the emotions of the hu.
man heart.

not be disappointed. l must

Judge Not.
Judge not the unfortunate harshly
Oh pause, and consider awhile
His heart may be broken with sorrow,
And yet more than yours free from guile,
Appearances may be against him.
But the thought of the heart, who can see;
o, whisper not words of foul slander
To please your base neighbor or me.
IT he heart it's own bitterness knoweth,"
And yours must be bitter ween,
Else you'd ne'er be eager TO publish
The faults you've imagined, not seen,
II erring ones yield to temptation,
Speak kindly, twill cost but word,
And watch your own action more closely,
Nor let vile whisper be heard.
Has sin your home circle entered
Has never loving one strayed
From the paths of sweet rectitude blindly,
While your heart with deep anguish we weighed
VAST with frowns or contemptuous glances,
You won him from dark haunts of shame
VAST by whispering scandal you brought him
To consider the worth of name'

'Tis child of our father above;

May be saved by his pitting love.

It was nc'er meant for you 60 remove
Remember the beam in thine own eye,
Beheld by that Father above.
De wary when temptations meet you,
If in passing they give you call;
"Lct him that is sure that he standcth
Take heed lest he stumble and fall"
Judge not, then, the Savior has spoken,
Or judgment for You is reserved;
BE sure that your own heart is purer-
That the merits you claim are deserved.

What Breaks Down "a Young
Man.

1t is a commonly received notion
that hard study is the unhealthy
element of college life. But from
tables Of the mortality Of Harvard
University, collected by Prof.
Pierce from the last triennial cata-
logue, it is clearly demonstrated
that the excess Of deaths for the
first ten years after graduation is
found in that portion of the class
ofinferior scholarship. Every one
who has seen the curriculum
knows that where Easchylus and
political economy Injuries one, late
hours and rum punches use up q
dozen, and the two little fingers of
these are heavier than the lions of
Euclid.
Dissipation is sure destroyer,
and every young man who follows
it is as the early flower, exposed
to an untimely frost. Those who
have been inveigled into the path
of vice are named legion. A few
hours sleep each night, high liv-
ing and plenty Of "smashes" make
war upon every function of the
body. The brains, the heart, the
lungs, the liver, the spine, the
limbs, the bones, the flesh--every
part and faculty arc overtasked
and weakened 10y the energy of
passion looscned from restrain t,
until like q dilapidated mansion,
the "carthly house of this taber-
nacle" falls into ruinous decay.
Fast young men, right about.

A father of fifty children is
vouched for by one of the most
trustworth and respected citizens
of Wasco, Texas, in letter to the
Adroace, of that place, which says
that by the first wife he had thir-
teen children by his second, eight
cen by his third, ten /; by his
fourth, six by his fifth and surviv-
ing wife, three and that thirty-fivo
of this numerous progeny are still
alive-eight having been lost in
the rebel army, and seven having
died natural deaths. Our only
wonder in the case is that the cur
sed old fool didn't lie down and
die before he started on the second
quarter Of his provocative career,
