CODE COMMISSIONERS.

The bill to pay Burch, Raymond, Dwinelle,
and the Clerks of the Code Commission was be-
fore the Senate to-day, and passed to engross-
ment by vote of "a to r. The act allows
these men about $25, 900. Senator Martin ex-
planned his vote this measure. He stated
that he was elected as reformer and was going
tc carry out the principles of reform, and that
when he first read this act he intended to op-
pose it; but, on examining the law under which
they have performed their labor, he changed
his mind The amount of labor enumerated in
the law which was required to be done, showed
that it WAS the intention of the State to hav,
this Commission last longer than 1872. He
voted for the bill because the labor was worth
the amount asked.

A girls every day toilet is part
of her character. The maiden who
is slovenly in the morning is not to
be trusted, however fine she NAV
look in the evening. No matter
how humble your room may be,
there are eight things it should
contain q mirror, a washstand,
water, soap, towel, hair, nail and
tooth brushes. These are just as
essential as your breakfast, before
which you should make a good use
of them, Parents who fail to pro>
vide their children with such appli-
ances, not only make a great mis-
take, but commit a sin of omission.
Look tidy in the morning, and
after the dinner work is over im>
prove your toilet. Make it q rule
of your daily life to " dress up :"
for the afternoon. Your dress may
not, and need not be, anything bet
ter than calico, but with a ribbon,
or flower, or some bit of ornament
you can have an air of self-respect
and satisfaction, that invariably
comes with being we'll dressed. A
girl with fine sensibilities cannot
help feeling embarrassed and awk :
ward in ragged, dirty dress, with
her hair unkempt, if a stranger or
neighbor should come in. More
over, your selfrespect should de-
mand decent appareling for your
body. You should make it point
to look as we'll as you can, even if
you know nobody will see you but
yourself.

As it flows through the realms of tears,
With faultless rhythm and musical rhyme,
And broader S: eep and surge sublime,
As it blends with the ocean of years.
How the winters are drifting like fakes Of

And the summers like buds between
And the years in the sheaf, so they come

On the rivers breast, with its ebb and flow,
As they glide in the shadow and sheen.
There's magical isle up the River Time,
Where the Softest of airs are playing;
There's cloudless sky and tropical cline,
And voice as sweet as vesper chime.
And the Junes with the roses staying.
And the name OF this isle is the Long Ago,
And We bury our treasures there;
There are brows of beauty and bosoms of
snow,
There are heaps Of dust, but we loved them
There are trinkets and tresSes of l5air
There are fragments q! song that poedy

And part OF an infants prayer,
There's harp unswept and lutte without

There are broken VOWS and pieces of rings,
And the garments that she used to wear.

The Latest Swindle.-Certain sanctimonious

diffusive stimulants have no medicinal value,
and that detestable Stops, composed of gripping
acids and drastic purgativeS, are better tOnics
than the finest vegetable ingredients combined
with the purest and nellowest products of the
still. But this sort OF thing won't go down. The
stomach of our common sense rejects IL, as the
physical stomach of every man with an unde-
PRAYED palate rejects, with lOathing and abhOr-
renee, the nauseous denominations, "fres from
alcohol" which Humbugs are trying to thrust
down the Threats of Temperance InvalidS under
the pretense that the filth will do them good
IL is not likely that while Plantation BitterS, tile
Standard Tonic of America, is anywhere acces
sible, such sickening frauds can make much
Roadway, but il Is as well TO put the public on
their guard against them.
