The Ladies Repository says mo puro
woman would suffer a man to retain her hand in
his, much less to encircle her with his arm, in
the ordinary relations Of social life aud yet, at
the bidding Of fashion, and because the addi-
tionAl stimulus OF music is superadded, she will
not only permit these liberties. but will remain
willingly strained to his breast for quarter of an
hour at a time, publicly exhibiting herself in a
position which in itself she virtuously condemns.
Another Temperance Lesson" the New
York Mail thinks these facts amount to Mrs.
Elizabeth II. Rice died in Boston the other day
in squalor and wretchedness after protracted
debauch. She was the daughter Of q wealthy
citizen Of Providence, and had married when quite
Young. She afterwards separated from her hus-
band and lived at fashionable hotel where she
was wont to indulge in wine. She acquired g
taste for strong drink, and went rapidly through
the moral and social decline which ends in the
grave Of q drunken outcast.
The Philadelphia Star says 1t will be joy
GUS and fortunate day for the school children
that the windows OF the rooms in which they are
confined five or elk hours every day, can be
thrown open and pure air admitted. There can
be no questioning of the fact that the health of
hundreds-we were going to say thousands Of
children is materially injured by the defective
ventilation OF nine tenths of our schoolhouses.

A Thrilling Incident.

The Detroit Free Press chronicles one of those
heroic incidents with which the lives OF most
railroad engineers abound, as happening recent
ly 10 Frank DolAn, an engineer on the Lansing
road. He was coming in on a wet track, with
heavy train, and soon after leaving a station,
put on more steam to make iup for lost time.
The train was running at the rate OF about twen-
ty-rye miles an hour when Dolan caught sight
Of man on the track, about half mile ahead.
lie was certain that the man was deaf from the
way he walked but he opened the whistle and
rang the bell The man paid no attention to the
sounds, and Dolan .whistled for brakes. They
did not take we'll, and although the engine was
reversed, it was plain that the pedestrian would
be run down unless something was done prompt
ly. DolAn ran forward over the engine and
down on the COW catcher.
By this time the pedestrian was not mere than
300 feet away, and was trying to walk on one OF
the rails swaying this way and that, but appar-
emily not feeling the rumble OF the train as it
naturally would be expected he vould. Dolan,
leaning forward. reached foot beyond the cow
catcher, and as the train cann close upon the
nsts. The victim was not on the rail at that
moment, and he caught it with his feet as he
went over, so that he was whirled around length
wise Of the track. and was cut in the scalp by
some portion Of the first pair OF trucks. He was
Laundering in the ditch when the train stopped
and, when he found out what the fuss was about
he squared of aud wanted to whip somebody.
He WAS so deaf that the railroad employees had
to scream in his ears to make themselves heard
and so mad that he would not let them exAmir
his wound or do anything for him. He was re-
cognized as a farmer living near there, but
would not even accept free ride home.

Youthful suicide.

AN ADuRKR OF HERoIsM TRIES THE EXPERIMENT
OF TAKING HIS OWN LIFE.
Luther Tarbutton, youth 10 years of age,
living with Mr.. Faulkner, near Trappe, Talbot
county, hung himself on small fruit
tree in the orchard, a few days ago.
The limb to which he was attached was only 5
feet from the ground and the boy was feet
inches in height The rope had about two feet
slack, and he was stretched forward with his
feet on the ground and the weight Of his body
sustained by the rope, which was wrapped sew
erAl times around his neck. 1t is supposed that
the loss OF his clothing and money by the recent
burning of his brothers residence led to the
rash act.
A correspondent Of the Denton Union writing
OF the affair says;
ale has been for sometime very fond Of read
ing the descriptions given In the papers OF sui
cides, murders and the like, and especially took
great interest in the loathsome details Of the
Salisbury tragedy and was heard TO remark, re-
Gently, that the boy ought not TO have shot the
girl, but simply killed himself. He seemed to
admire the act OF the boy throwing himself on
the track before the train. He would often
speak OF suoh things with familiarity strange
for one OF his age"

There is Aprospect that the different parties
in the Protestant Episcopal church will have an
opportunity OF contending for their respective
theories in a more direct way than they have
been able to do heretofore. Bishop Coke, of
Western New York, proposes that constitution
al congress OF the church shall meet before
1876, with power to adjourn from time, to be
charged with the duty OF making such changes
in the organic law Of tho church as may be re-
fer-ad TO it.
The Bishop thinks that the time has come to
settle the question whether Episcopaey is to be
"fossillized as an Anglican exotic, or to rise to
it's proper sphere and become mother to all the
immigrants who are coming in from Europe and
Asia. The Congress will be the scene OF much
animated discussion for some persons arc in
favor OF dropping the word Protestant from the
name OF the church. Others OF opposite ten
denotes will want to purge the church from all
"RomAnizing germs, and the division OF dioce-
ses the multiplication and prerogatlves OF bish-
ops, will be fruitful subjects OF debate. What
ever shape the congress may take, its delibera.
tions will be important, and of far more thar
mere denominational Observation-Disclosures Amer
