Overdresscd SCHOOLGIRLS.

Many of the girls in the schools could
be much more suitably dressed than
they are, and nc considerably less eX-
penSe. They then would gain in APP
peaTauCe what they would lose i'm the
Indulgence Of thcir vanity their parents
would be richer In pocket, and all the
children i'm the schools would fecl-on
the basis of social equality. Teachers
also can DO much to remedy the evil.
There Is good reason to fear that many
teachers at present rather encourage IL.
They are perhaps not all free from a lit
tie personal vanity themselves and they
may prefer TO see their classroom made
more cheerful with many ribbons far
too elaborate toilets, forgetting how
much real injury is thereby done to the
cause which, i'm all sincerity, they have
most at heart. To secure a perfectly eff
fectual remedy, parents and teachers
should cooperate. Children attending
the schools should bS neatly and tidily
dressed. This cannot be too imperative
ly insisted upon.

The fault of the age is reStlessncss
and consequent supcrticialjty; and
eminent IN this respect is the American,
and most so OF all the travelling or the
Travelled American. The amount OF
Europe which our countrymeu bring
annually back from thence quite iucal-
culablc. Europe is not TO be learned i'm
summer; but one place in Europe
may be pretty well studied and enjoyed
i'm that time, and a glimpse gotten OF
many other places ir going and coming.
As we have already said, this way OF
travelling is part and parcel OF our rest
less modern existence. We cry out for
rapid transit I'm our cities, and the truth
a. that we are seeking 10 make life little
else but rapid transit. We reckon our
enjoyment, not by its depth or its
length, but by the surface it covers and
the swiiness with which il bears as
along. We have done so many things
we have gone through So many formu-
las of business or Of pleasure within a
certain time-that Is the measure of life
70 most of us. The inevitable conse-
quence is that, 10 those who live thus,
I life Is rapid transit. they have their
reward

For the Citizen,

For the Citizen,
The last General Assembly enacted
a law directing the Comptroller of the
Treasury TO have warrants on the
Treasury issued in denominations Of
one, two, five, ten, twenty and fifty
dollars payable tor bearer, and
receivable In payment Of all dues to the
State.
The Comptroller In pursuance of this
act has issued the warrants of the de-
nominations indicated. These warrants
are as good as greenbacks, and should
be at par with them. 1t is the duty OF
every citizen who desires the credit and
faith Of the State TO use these warrants
as money, for such was the intention OF
the Legislature. Their Issuance was =
relief measure, not n speculative one
IL was never imagined that the Issuance
of five hundred thousand dollars OF
those warrants TO relieve the people
would be n means Of speculation. We
are informed that certain banks in the
State are now Offering TO buy them al
10 per cent discount. This viii intro
duce speculation In the warrants of the
State, and the efforts of the Legislature
TO relieve the people would be turned
into an engine of mischief. This car
only be stopped by "A determination oil
the people to sustain the credit of the
State by refusing TO sell their warrants
at discount.

CB- Our Ash Gap correspondent,
might go even little farther, in his
history of the Orr family. James Orr,
the venerable sire, is not only hale and
hearty, at 80 years Of age, conscious Of
having done his duty in giving to his
country l1s descendants, but they are
exceedingly healthy and long lived, as
may be inferred from the fact that out
OF the whole number there has never
been n natural death over six years OF
age, and only 20 in all-lS Of whom
were infants and killed in the South
cTu army.

TI,eCrODs.

The prospect In Giles now is very
gratifying. Cotton has overcome the
effects OF the late cold spring, and
is dong well. 1t Is not large but
is said to be vigorous and healthy.
Corn Is doing well, and promises
an abundant yield. Wheat, though
the rust has damaged e some, and
though the late freezes I'm the Spring
must have injured it more or less, will
yield more than an average crop, and
the area being so much greater than
usual, the aggregate yield will be a
very large one. Altogether our far
mers now have a most encouraging
prospect ahead.

wheat on the European mode, that his

they are gone where the "woodbinc
