The fourth point Of Mr.. Boutwell, is the re-
ducton of taxation. We have not heard OF
any reduction since the last Presidential cam
paign. The last reduction appears to have
been little premature. From reducing the
Public Debt at the rate of one hundred mil
lions year we have, in consequence OF throw
ing off the taxes, in the short space OF fifteen
months commenced increasing ut the rate OF
fifty millions year The membersof theincom-
ing Congress will have fine opportunity for
showing that they are worth 10 the country

After suffering long wretched anticipationS OF a
lack of butchers meat in the future, after enduring
prowlingly the high prices of the same, tho English
people eagerly welcomed the canned meat of Aus
tralia. They tasted, they approved, they ate but
they shortly arrived at the conclusion that while it
was good it was not exactly fresh meat, and it was
extremely expensive 1t is therefore with loud con-
CALCULATIONS that they have received news of the de-
parture from Australia of ship loaded with meat
preserved fresh by new invention. Ii is simply
laid in great iron tank, the lid Of which rests
quantity of artificial ice frozen much harder than the
common natural ice This ice which oosts'S3 q ton
80 freezes the meat that decomposition Is SAID 10 bo
impossible. Thus the hungry British person may
expect presently TO find upon his plate the best Of
fresh meat from the other side of the world. The
probable price Of this provsion is not given. but the
supply will doubtless be large and the cost small if
the experiment proves successful The heat and the
motion of the voyage may perhaps interfere with
this success; at Melbourne meat has been perfectly
kept by the process for 81 days

The annual conference of the Association
for the Amelioration Of Woman finally adj
iourned Yesterday. The session has been long,
l,,o,;ous and important in many of its bear
ings. Most of the questions discussed nave
been severely practical; they have grown out
Of the necessity for higher opportunities Tor
women. rather than from any mere desire Tor
radical measures. On the second page OF The

An examination of tho Government weather
reports will show that there has just passed
over Minnesota one of the most remarkable
barometric depressiOns that has ever visited
that region. The severe wind-stOrms that
prevailed in the Northwest yesterday were
heralded by reports of cold weather and ox-
tensive snow storms in the Rocky Mountains !;
and the warm weather which prevailed on
Friday in the Middle States was the natural
precursor of an advancing storm. The dis
turbance thus significantly preceded may be
expected to arrive on the Atlantic border by
Saturday night or Sunday morning. If 1t
reaches MS speedily it may be expected to be
one of the severest of our autumnal storms;
if it is delayed in its progress eastward, 1T
will lose much of it's force. shippers and
Shippers will do well to prepare for the storm
which is sure TO come.

Civil Service examinations under the new
rules are somewhat complicated affairs
Washington dispatch, giving the outline of the
proposed proceedings, says that the Treasury
service is to be replenished with clerks taken
from groups gathered at st. Louis, Cincinnati
Savannah, and New-YOrk. These are to be
formed by issuing invitations; and the best
men are to be selected from the competing
candidates. Any reformation on the old mode
of filing the minor Offices at Washington VIII
be considered great boon; but it IS n little
pitiful that tho demands of local interest ana
ofce-seeking compel the examiners to travel
about the country like a missionary board

Canal capacity engaged the Senate Commit
tee on Transportation, yesterday, with some
reference to the shipping facilities OF New
York harbor. The learned gentlemen VINO
constitute the Committee may be able 10 d'-
gest. from the mass of matter which has Deeh
submitted to them, some practical plan tor the
relief Of the country. The prospect, however
i not bopeful; the most imminent scheme.
according to reports, is one which involves the
extension of vast system OF internal I'M
provements, of which the James River and
Kanawha Canal would be only ore OF the
striking features. Our correspondent among
the Western Farmers, two OF whose letters are
herewith published, gives some facts ana
figures which bear so iorcibly on the trans
portation problem that We direct especial at
tentiOn to them.

Home AdorninRs

The best adornment which any one, howev-
er knowing or skillful, or active, can bring TO
any habitatiOn Is uniformly cheerful, smll-
ling face, and the loving spirit which irradi-
ates It. That brings sunshine within the
household, better than any which come from
without, and peace TO Its happy POSSesS0r, as
well as to beholders. One who bears within
wherever he goes, genial disposition, be-
nigh aspect, kind words aDd gentle manners,
with, when tenderly appropriate, the sweet
influence of golden silence also, possesses q
degree of moral beauty which reflects itself to
all eyes, from everywhere around him. The
home, where such q one goes out ana in
at morning and at evening, Is to the weary;
aching hearts Of others the very gate Of heaV-
en-.
But there are physical, intellectual. artistic
and moral adOrnments that b slODgs to q per
feet hOme-t0 the preparation of which, In the
end, all the growing family history should, at
all times powerfully tend. Even plain
home can be made to have an air OF universe
welcome in 1t, by its scrOpulous neatness and
order, and by few trailing vines without, and
summer flowers within, and with plenty Oi
light and air in its scanty apartments.
In most homes, in these privileged days, en-
cravings can be, at least in few OF them, easily
obtained, TO be hung upon the walls or placed TO
more careful and studious observation IN we'll
kept portfolios. Stereoscopes are cheap and pro
motive, in their way, of the aesthetic enjoymen
and culture Of family. Music can be brought IL
some form to lend its charms to the common cen
tire of family gladnCsI.
Pleasing effects eau be secured by little skill
In adapting colors to each other, in the choice 9
carpets, wall paper and furniture, and In thel
harmonious disposition. Much do books, cholc
books, grace any home, or any hand in which the
are found. A home, however lavishly garnishe
with wealth or art, and ell the more 50 for an
such pleasing and gratifying contrast, seems to 2
utterly tame and spiritless to one visiting 1t VIII
finds il void of books, or of all books but lhos
which are cheap and frivolous. Even neWspup'
or monthly magazine of any character, layin
around in ahouse, advertises the fact at once thi
there is some Intellectual vitality within lis wall
and that mere material things do not shut out q
higher thoughts from the hearts Of its inmates.

How She Takes The Train.

SHE comes down to the depot in an ex-
press wagon three hours before train time.
She insists on sitting on her trunk, out on
the platform, to keep it from being stolen.
She picks up her reticule, fan, parasol,
lunch basket, small pot with a house
plant in it, shawl, paper bag OF candy,
bouquet (she never travels without one),
small tumbler and extra veil, and chases
historically after every switch engine
that goes by, under the impression that it
is her train. Her voice trembles as she
presents herself at the restaurant and tries
to buy ticket. and she knocks with the
handle of her parasol on the door Of the
old disused Toulouse in vain hopes that
the baggage man will come out and check
her trunk She asks everybody in the
depot and on the platform when her train
will start, and where it will stand, and,
looking straight at the great clock, asks
"What time is it nowy" She sees, with
terror, the baggage man shy her trunk in
to Car where two men are smoking, IN
stead of locking it up by itself in a large
strong, brown car with "Bad order,
shops,n chalkcd on the side, which she
has long ago determined to be the bag
gage car as the only safe one in sight.
Although the first at the depot, she is the
last to get her ticket, and once on the cars,
she sits, to the end of her journey, in an
agony Of apprehension that she has got
on the wrong train and will be landed at
some strange station, put in a close car
rage, drugged, and murdered, and to ev-
cry last male passenger who walks down
the aisle she stands up and presents her
ticket, which she invariably carries in
her hand. She finally recognizes her
waiting friends on the platform, leaves
the car In bust of gratitude, and the
train ID ten miles away before she remem-
bers that her reticule, fan, parasol, lunch
basket, verbena, shawl, candy, tumbler,
veil and boquet, are on the car seat where
she left them, or at the depot in Peoria,
for the life of her she can't tell which,
