Our PUBLIC RoADs.--It Is very proba-
BILE that the public roads in Franklin
county are in verse plight than the roads
Of any adjacent county. The present sys-
tenn of keeping them up" Is very defec-
tive, and deserves the attention OF the
Legislature. Overseers are appointed ny
the County Court, and all persons be-
tween 10 and 80 years Of aye are required
to work upon tho roads a certain number
of days in the year, unless exempt for
some special reason. The man who owns
ten thousand dollars worth Of land, or
other taxable property, is not required to
work any more, we believe, than the nan
who owns no property. This is mani
testify unjust. The County Court is to a
extent. q law-making power, and
has the power, perhaps, to levy a tax upon
property for the purpose Of keeping up
roads, just as the corporation OF a town
has to levy taxes for fixing streets. Now,
If A has a large farm and raises crops Of
various kinds for sale, lie wants good
roads in order to get his crops
% market. The better the reads
The more he can haul and the less
injury ia wear and tar Is done
his teams. Besides, he does more haul
ng and damages the road more than the
nan who raises only a little--perhaps
more than enough for his own
consumption. Evidently A ought to be
axed in proportion to the benefit he de-
ives and the damage he does. Hence,
say that the proper method is to levy
tax upon property-enough to insure
GOD roads. The plan is more just than
he present one. and infinitely preferable.
We want good dirt roads, II we cannot
ave turnpikes. Property would b. en-.
anced In value and immigration be slim
lated. More anon.

FAsHION.-A minister of one Of the
churches in Winchester il responsible for
the assertion. made from his pulpit, u few
days since, that II person now -l-days could
take IL few old newspapers, a little paint.
and some feathers. and make u woman.
This WAS certainly Il "centre-slot' ut the
fashions for females, and must be taken in
a tigurative sense. Most a.suredly We
don't think at has yet attained to the
point Of making one of those beautiful
creatures whose charms lead men to adj
mire and love and steal their hearts away.
Never! No number Of newspapers and
ne amount Of paint and feathers can make
this
4" faircst of creation, last and best
OF MI Gods works."
But we do hope the time will soon come.
AS an exchange says, when mistress and
maid will mo longer vie with each other
in overlooking their heads with, excess of
millinery; when dresses will cease to be
the mops for unclean sidewalks; when
lightness and looseness shall be the rule
for every garment worn, and when health
and hygiene shall! go hand in hand with
and fashion, and be the arblters. and
not the slaves, of its caprice and whims."
Long dresses. gathering up the filth of the
street, do lock SO slovenly, and the poet
" Women were made to give our eyes de-
light;
female sloven is IA odious sight"
