In the last twenty-seven years
24,6O2 couvicts have been sent to the
penitentiary at Albany. Of these
2l,057 have acknowledged that pre-
vious to their conviction they were adj
dicted to drunkenness. 1t is more
than probable that the greater num-
Der Of these convicts would never
have been guilty Of the crimes for
which they were sentenced had they
not been inebriates. When we add
to the penitentiary expenses Of these
criminals the cost of police officers,
courts, ami jails previous to their con-
viction, the question arises whether it
would not be more economical to
provide State asylums for all pauper-
ism directly attributable to intemper
ate drinking, and make the asylums
also places of retreat and hospitals for
all inebriates who are willing to in
carcerate themselves and submit to
necessary rules and regulations for
their cure and reformation. The
work performed by the inmates of
such asylums could certainly be made
much more remunerative than con-
vict labor. There is not doubt that
were ample provision to be made for
the safe keeping of incurable inebriates,
the expenditures of the public trea-
sury would be no greater than the az
gregate that is now paid by the peo-
pie in the form of fees to officers in
every city, village, and town for the
suppression of disorders, misdelnean-
ors, and crimes directly consequent on
drunkenness.-M Y. Sun.

The Outside of the Window.

They stand at the window, peering,
And pressing against the PIANO
Their beautiful childish faces;
Without are the night and rain.
They stand ut the window, peering
What see they, the children, there ?
A room full If happy happy faces,
A room full Of shining air.
A room full of warmth and brightness,
A room full Of pleasant sights
OF pictures and statues and vases
And shadows at play with the lights.
But sweetest of all, to their gazing
$50 near, they seem part of them there },
Is the room full of happy faces
In the room full of shining air.
All me my precious observers,
Another sight I shall find.
What is it /? dread to tell you,
And, oh 1t were sweet to be blind
From the llghtedroom, through the window,
sec, and have seen Thorn Of old,
A world full of wretched faces,
A world full of darkness and cold,
A world full of cold and darkness,
A world full of dreary sights
No pictures, nor statutes, nor vases,
But shadows that put out the lights.
All, saddest of all, through the window
(They seem with us, so near y behold
A world full of wretched faces
In world full of darkness and cold

SHREwD PIGEoN.-A correspondent
of Nature writes as follows: Having
occasion to wait for my pony to be
harnessed at an inn Il few years sine,
my attention was directed by gen.
tleman "a resident of the neighbor
hood with whom was acquiented,
to the strange conduct of pigeon. a
number of them were feeding on a few
oats that had accidentally been let fall
while fixing the nose,bay on horse
standing at bait. Having finished all
the grain at hand, large one rose,
tapped its wings turously, flew direct
ly at the horses eyes causing that ami
NAL to toss his head, and in doing so, of,
course, shake out more corn. / saw
this several times repeated in fact
whenever the supply had been ex-
hausted. leave it to your readers to
consider the train of thoughts that
must have passed through that pig
cons brain before it adopted the clev-
er method above narrated, of stealing

A SCARED LOT OF DARNEs.-There
is a station on the Selma and Meridian
Railroad named Cuba. A few nights
since, as the train with an emigrant
agent and crowd freedmen going
West, reached this point, the brake
man put his head inside the car door,
and sung out, "Cuba !" One old
darkey rose, and as his wool straight
ened out, said "Dar! fore God, ]
know'd it ! Heah we is in Cuba, an
dat ar white man gwine to put lis in
de war, OF sell us fore day. Oof.-
Use gwine from heah," And he with
about thirty more loped off into the
woods, leaving the agent to use big
words about Cuba, brakemen. and the
uncertainty of the ''nigger."
