Miss DickinsOn's Ignorance.

The Jersey City Journal criticses Miss
Anna Dickinson's recent lecture on the
"Social Evil, as follows
She made an assersion which shows that
she either does not know as much about the
subject, as she should before attempting to
publicly discuss it, or she was Intentionally
unjust. She represented the young men Of
modern society as deliberately plotting as
sailants of female virtue, as going about
with the purpose of libertinism uppermost
in their intentions. This we believe to be
a gross libel upon the average young man
of society, and we should like TO know on
what facts or observations Miss Dickinson
bases so serious charge. If true the
young men of our day are not fit associ-
ates tor women if false, then Miss Dick
inson is guilty of a gross and Gratuitous
libel on the male sex, especially the younger
members of that sex. Does she affect to
believe that for seduction and licentious-
ness the men are solely to blame She
will not find that in accord with the testi-
mony of the most careful and candid Oh
servers of the facts, those who have taken
most pains to find out the truth and to in
vestigate the causes of the ''social evil
such as physicians, students of natural
sciences and statistics. They testify gen
orally that it is somewhat difficult to de
eide which sex is most TO blame for the eX-
lstence and the prevalence OF these Of
fences, although they admit that the worst
consequences fall on the female Miss
Dickinson should be more sure of her
proofs than we think size is or can be, be
fore she makes such an unwarranted and
UNJUST disposition Of the blame in this
matter.

New Persian Fable.

Arsene Ioussayc, the Paris correspond
ent of the New York Tribune, in a Cos
sipy letter about late soiree at the
Paris Ulysses, gives the following fable
narrated by the Persian ambassador, who
was chatting with Lord Lytton and Com
mander Nigra, each contiding to the other
his newest poetical idea
"Youth came down quickly from the
mountain. When she came to the plain
she laughed in the midst of the dazzling
flowers, stars of gold and silver on the car
pet of grass.
"The flowers were the passions OF the
heart which Knocked in their fair dresses at
the sombre raiment of the pines. And the
butterflies, those smiles at the spirit, chat
tered with the flowers, and said to the
pines, 60 up to the mountain, for you
Brighten us in the valley The pines, who
are wise, made no answer TO the flowers
and butterflies. But when Winter came
on, dressed all in white, they talked among
themselves of the mysteries of heayen and
earth. The little flowers were buried I'M
der the snow with the butterflies. They
Knocked no longer at the grave and pensive
pines.
THUS youth departs-the passions fall
under the snow. But man remains and be.
comes wise

UP the OckIawhn,

A correspondent Of the PHILADELPHIA
bulletin writes as follows of voyage up

Gas soon as breakfast was disposed of
we Immediately mounted to the top of the

was now fairly up, and the thermometer
stood at about 20 degrees. / was quietly
smoking and lodging tree branches. when
suddenly the rifle aud both barrels of the
shot gun were discharged, making the
dense wood ring with startling echo. In
an instant | had turned, grasping the re-
volver, and caught sight Of our first ALI
gator. l quickly fired two shots at the
ugly reptile, making five in ALL when he
quietly dropped into the water un.
hurt. The alligator had the laugh on us,
for, although we struck him, not one shot
penetrated his coat of mail. Exclama-
tons OF surprise among the sangunary
sportsmen were now in order. All dag
long, with only an intermission tor dinner.
we banged away at alligators, paroquets.
limpkins, white cranes, cardinal birds, Joe.
rees, looms, morants, whooping cranes, tur.
ties, wild turkeys, white curlew, and sew
eral species of ducks, constituting such
| sport as / never before witnessed. The
endless swamps which line the river on
both sides are almost impenetrable with the
thickest wood, comprising water oaks.
swamp cypress, wild orange, palmettos,
ash, maple, scrub palmettos, and other
| species OF which do not know the names,
many of them being partly or wholly coy
cred with parasites, in the form of air
plants, mstetoe ferns, long moss, running
vines, etc, forming scene, with the mar
row river, that must be seen to be compre
hended thoroughly. In many places the
river is barely wide enough to allow the boat
to pass through, and the turns are often at
complete right angles, or even parallel with
the course you have come. You canno,
proceed for single eighth of a mile at any
time without making sharp turn. The
completely of angles and double angles
can be better understood by explaining that
it is but fifty miles in direct line across
the country from Palatka to Silver Springs,
our objective point, while it is one hundred
and thirty-fve miles by the river.
