After having read Mrs. Dali, Miss

women who have taken up the argument
in behalf Of the healthfulness of a
higher education for their sex, and above
all the right of women to settle their own
questions, Boston's DIR. Clarke must be-.
gin to feel that he was dogmatic without
the right of full knowledge, that, at least !,
there are some things he did not think of
when he wrote his Sex in Education. u"If

TURNING THE TABLES actors,
who bore to each other the most invete-
rate hatred, were to perform in an opera,
the one knight, and the other disguised
as bear, with whom the knight was to
combat. Everything went off very we'll /;
they fought, the bear, as was fitting, was
vanquished, and lay motionless on the
ground. But while the very fine in
Strumental music was celebrating this chiv-
alrous action, and attracted for few mo-
ments the attention of the audience, the
victorious knight thought it pity not to
embrace this opportunity, and therefore
struck his fallen adversary several times
with the fiat of his sword. The bear bore
it very patiently for some time but when
he found it going too far he suddenly
sprang up, seized the knight and treated
him SO roughly that he fell down half-dead
with fear. At this instant it was the turn
of the orchestra to be silent, and the knight
was to sing q bravura in honor of the
conquest. Everything was silent, the cir
cumstance, had not been noticed in the
orchestra, the prompter gave the signal,
but, as the knight was unable to sing, the
bear. an equally good singer, without much
ceremony, seated himself on the fallen
knight.and with loud voice sang the air,
to the no small entertainment of the
audience.

CHILD HERoIsM. in a while is
told some story of heroism in a child
which ought to help the professional cynic
to little faith in his kind. Not long ago
young girl, lost in the woods with her
little brother, protected him from the
weather all through a bitter night at the
cost Of her own frozen limbs. Some days
ago three children, girl of six, her brother
only four, and another little boy six years
old, went to pond in Kentucky to skate.
That day the ice had been cut from half the
pond, and the six-year-old boy skated di-
rectly into the deep water and sank. The
three small creatures were all alone there.
The four-year-old tried to rescue the poor
child, bnt failed; then the little girl, with
presence of mind woman might be proud
10 own, walked to the edge of the ice,
waited until the boy rose gasping, seized
him and drew him out What glitteripg
romance might be built upon this true
story of chld's courage!

The utter indifference of Congress to
the rights of the women of Utah is in singu-
lar contrast to its almost morbid sem
sitiveness in regard to the rights of colored
men. Suppose that the Senate judiciary
committee, in view of the very peculiar
condition of South Carolina, had quietly
reported bill, the effect of which would
be to deprive colored men of suffrage :?
Would long debate have taken place
without a single allusion to the proposed
Limitation of suffrage" to white men? On
the contrary, Mr.. Sumner would have
exhausted the resources OF eloquent invec-
tive, and every Republican Senator would
have denounced the proposition as con-
spiracy against liberty. Let us hope that
the day will come when the rights of
women will find as many and as earnest
defenders in the Congress of the United
States as the rights of colored men find
now. But that day will never dawn until
the women Of America are armed with the
ballot,

New little voices
Speak In love or strife -
New little fingers
Tightly clasp our own
New little tendrils
Round our hearts have grown.
still the old voices
Echo in our ear,
And the old faces
Hallowed are and dear;
Still the old friends
Who have passed away,
Live in our affection
Love has no decay;
And the old words,
Spoken long ago,
Keep the heart tender,
Make the tears flow.
Thus New and Old
Mingle In one,
Each has its blessing
And when life is done,
Old faces, old friends
Will meet us again
Treasures long buried
We shall regain

All that is true,
