But when we see it written wright,
We know tits not then written right,
For write, to have it written right,
Must not be written right nor wright,
Nor yet should it be written rite;
But W-R-I-T-E-for so it's written right.

LarrThe attempt to "regulate" the social
illidl' in st. Louis seems not to work well, as
Afight have been expected It Sill be re-
., lembered that some time since the regu
iAAiion system" in foreo-in Europe was placed
on trial inst; Louis. The houses Of pros
titafion were all required to secure a license,
and we're placed under both medical and
police surveillance One thousand ladies Of
St: Lotis have petitionfd the ooancil to re-.
tpeal this ordinance, and at Its meeting last
week another memorial was presented on
the.same subject. The petitioners present
as their reasons: /. Because thelaw is u1l-
Just and partiA in its operations, in that il
does not treat both sexes alike; 2. Because
it is an open -oGsnse to morality and relig-
ion, in that il provides for the contnuancf
of prostitution under legaI regulation and
sanction; 8. Because it is useless and per
nicious in fact, in that it increases the
amount of Prostitution without diminish
ing the amount of disease. Under this
head the petitioners present priiateEl docu-
ments, in which they claim to prove from
official declarations and statisticsin Berlin,
PaI9s, RotterdanI and theHague, in Brns-
sells and in several English towns, including
the British, settlements in the East Indies,
that neither PROSTITUTION nor the prevalence
of venereal diseases is lessened by regulation
systems such as that Of st. Louis, while
public and private morals are made much
worse. 4. Finally, they demand the re-
peal because the ordinance, is unconstitu,
tional,. and ID conflict with both the letter
J and the spirit of the laws of the State.

The only temperance railroad in
the United States, indeed, in the
world, is said to be the Marietta and
Pittsburgh railroad, running from
Marietta to Cambridge, distance of
fifty-nine miles. Every officer and
employee of the road is practical
temperance man, and not single
fatal accident has ever occurred upon
it since it was first opened. This is
suggestive as far as it goes; and it
goes fifty-nine miles.
