in my own way.
To me she said my friend, must have
somo definite object in life, or life isn't
worth having. 1 have no genius, as you
know if were an artist or author, my &C.
centricity, as people call it, might find its
outlet in other directions. As il is, my
work suits me, and I think I may hope 1
am doing some good in my day and gener-
alton"
And as she laughed and held out her
hand to me with the old gay cordially, 1
was silenced If not convinced.
"But you thought all the same that it
was pity Miss Edith refused to become
happy, honored wife instead of clinging to
her lonely estate and her strange scheme
for liie-time's occupation and pleasure ?''
az never said that ~ rejoined the doctor
with some aspority "but see my watch
tells that the dinner hour is approaching,
and my stomach seconds the admoniton.

DINING TABLEs.-One of our correspol

DINING TABLEs.-One of our correspond
ents now travelling in Russia sends us
description of the novel dining table of the
Emperor, now in use in one of the Peter
hofl palaces, near st. Petersburgh. The
table is circular aud is placed on weight
ed platform. At the touch of signal like
the rub of Aladdin's lamp, down goes the
table through the floor, and a new table,
loaded with fresh dishes and supplies, ris-
es in its place. But this is not all; each
plate stands on weighted disk, the table
cloth being cut with circular openings. one
for each plate. If a guest desires change
of plate, he touches signal at his side,
when, presto his plate disappears and an
other rises. These mechanical dining Ia
bles render the presence Of servants quite
superfluous. In this country, at the Onei-
da community, they employ dining tables
having the central part made TO revolve.
Here the gobets, spoons, tea and coffee,
castors. pitchers and other necessary arti-
cles of table furniture are placed revolv-
ing the center piece, the sitter brings before
him whatever article may be desired with
out the Intervention of special waiter.-

A CALIFORNIA WHEAT FIELD.-Wm.
n. Meserve, a missionary OF the American
Sunday school Union, who recently went
from Vermont to California, speaks of find
ing Sunday school superintendent in a
wheat field where very large threshing
machine was placed beside an immense
stack of grain. Eighteen men, fourteen
horses, steam engine, and two derrick
forks which did the work of fifteen men
were employed, and The grain was thresh-
ed as fast as one man could tie the bags

POPULAR AND COMPULSORY EDUcAr1o,

POPULAR AND COMPULSORY EDUCATION
in England and Walespresents some graft
flying results. Since the Birmingham
league undertook its mission in favor of
secular education, new lease of life seems
TO have been infused into the denomina-
tional schools, as is indicated by the in
crease in their accommodations aud aver
age attendance. The school boards, acting
chiefly in the country districts, are doing a
wide and noble work for all the children of
school age. London has lately raised loans
am ounting to .e25O,OO0, by which to pay in
part the cost of educating 100000 of her
children. Compulsory attendance has been
put in force in London in 10 parishes, rep
rcsenting y population of 100000. Com
pulsion is now the law for about 80 per cent
of the whole population of England and
Wales, and compulsory education is found
to conducs higher average attendance up
on all schools. Notwithstanding the wran-
giles of religious factions, every British
child can now obtain an elementary edu-
cation.
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1873-09-05

Further developments relative to the
child slaves of the Italians, in New York,
show that in two houses in Crosby street
were $50 children, in each room 10 or IL
boys, each tied by the wrists with cord.
There was a man in charge OF every room.
In some cases the children were marked
by brand on the cheek, lip or ear. 1t
was stated that there are from 1000 to 5000
children kept in servitude and misery in
the city.

A Boys Letter to HIS sIator.

DEAR SUE: The horses is all got the epierarnic
very badly. Us boys had so much fun the other
day Little Franks hobby-horse had glue run
MIN out OF his nose, 50 we knew he had 1t, and
we took him into the bath room and got some of
mat hne towels and wrapped his legs up in hot
WatDr and burned sulphur matches under his
throat, and sWinged his name off, and the paint
eame Off his legs, and the glue all came unstuck,
and Frank can't ride him any more. Wasn't it
Jolly Then the matches put US in mind of havin'
Boston tre, 90 we coaxed sister Sadie to give us
her box OF Swiss houses you brought her from
UrlH and we set 'em up and touched 'em off, and
let her mp. The town went like blazes, and we
throWed e0maof ss's dolls in for dsa1 bodies, and
then saved the afns and legs for tfofys Fs . ~
But you bet we got scared when the flames went
so high, so we turned on the hose, and that fool
Jim Blain let the water run all over the door and
down the kitchen on to the cooks head, and she
thought the pipes had busted and run for man to
hx ON, so ma caught US in there, and the boys
run home, but ii got q thrashing. It didn't hurt
much, causS ] had on thick clothes Our Frank
Is in pants He went in last Sunday. I've got
new girl. don't like Jennie Bird any more, or
guess she don't like me any more, cause when
give her a handful of peanuts she throwed them
in my face, and expect Jim Blain told lies about
me. I'd lick him, only his father Keeps a candy
stort, and get all the candy want for nothin'.

A story is told b5 Dickens in the narrative Of
his residence in Switzerland, given to the world
by Mr.. Forster, of Swiss bride who, having. ae-
cordlng to local custom, to buy black dress for
her wedding, observed to her mother, an old lady
OF ~ years, "You know, mother, | am sure to
Wan1 mourning for you soon, and the same gown
VIII do" Similar want of reverent delicacy Is Of
ten compatible with real affection in the case of
persons deficient in cultivation. District visitors
often meet with instances of this obtuseness In
tae very poor, even when there is no lack of rood
feeling. The Scotch peasantry, warm-hearted
race enough, are great sinners in this respect. A
benevolent lady who devoted herself TO soothing
the woes OF the sick and sorrowful in a small
scotch parish, being particularly attracted by an
amlable young girl, the daughter of q cotter, who
was suffering from consumption, visited her con
tlnunlly in her little garret. The patient cot
weaker aud weaker, and her kind friend enter
tanned little doubt that the end was near, when.
ON calling as usual to the sufferer, she was as
tonlshed to see her down stairs in the excepting
room" On questioning the mother as to the i'm
proVement she supposed must have taken place
TO warrant this change, the tender parent imme-
diately replied in her chlId's presence "Deed,
ma lcddy, we were fain to move her; we could ma
hae gotten the corpse doom the stair."-EchO.
