MR.. W. E. FoRsTERis an adventurous man,
and believes in carrying the war into the very
heart of A frica. He advises British manufactur-
ers to take their goods to the Philadelphia Cen
tennial, and prove to the Americans that free
trade is good for them. British free traders
in Philadelphia! Manchester manufacturers,
hob-nobbing with Henry c. Carey! We
shudder at the consequences. Fancy Protes-
tant clergyman preaching the freedom of pri-
vate judgment in the Vatican. Imagine Lou
is Blanc advocating socialism in the Winter
Palace. Picture to yourself Archbishop
Manning arguing in favor of the Papal de-
crees in the Royal Palace at Berlin. Think

man, but rash beyond compare. Does he
wish to precpitate conflict between the two
countries?

CANNON's CASE.

When the case of Mr.. Cannon, the delegate
from Utah, comes up for consideration in the
House, several new and important points will
be raised; for instance, on tie question of ex-
pulson; the question will be raised whether
whether two.thirds vote will be required, but
the House can, by mere majority vote, expel
any of its officers. Some contend that as Mr..
Cannon is not q Representative in the contem-
plation of the Constitution, q majority vote
would be sufficient in his case. The question
has been submitted to the best parliamentary
ans in the House, and they have some difhcul-
will be made that there is no authority 70 de-
prve the people of a state or territory OF repre-
sentation on the ground OF immortality OF the
representative or delegate.
HOW KING WAS CAPTURED.
A special Deputy Sergeant-at-Arms arrived
from Montreal, Can, yesterday, with the return
of service upon the noted William ). King. ex-
Postmaster of the House. The service was had
under peculiar circumstances. Three Sergeant
alarms have been hunting King for six weeks,
and have kept track of his whereabouts, but
could never reach him. Last Thursday Ser
oeant-at.Arlns Ordway received telegram
from Montreal from Minnes0tian residing
there, stating that King was concealed at a
large stock farm at Compton, 1I5 miles from
Montreal, and stating that If papers could be
forwarded speedily and secretly this Minneso-
tian, who is an ex-sheriff, would undertake to
serve them. He did so, and came upon King
concealed on the farm He Immediately secur-
ed him. King was so overwhelmed with as
tonishment that he could not talk. The House
will doubtless now issue warrant for Kings

HONESTY AT THE ToILET.-First of all
rules relating TO ornament, comes the rule
oftruth. All attempts TO pretend to beau
ties that we do not possess are clearly false
hood, wrong in themselves and injurious
to the genuine possessors. 1t is parting
with the true dignity of the virtuous wo-
man, to Try 10 change hair or complexion;
and it is strange and sad proof OF the evil
influences of fashion, that SO many good
women should deck themselves with bor-
rowed plaits without compunction, "be-
cause every one knew it was not their
own" False pretenses at wealth are
nearly as bad as false pretenses at beauty.
In the last generation, mock jewelry was
the acme of vulgarity. Now, love of
trinkets has made tinsel in reality more
vulgar, because more common. Only the
truly refined win now refuse to wear any
thing that is not what 1t pretends to be
will prefer an honest pebble TO a sham
jewel, and turn away from false coral and
glass jet. The person who utterly repu-
dates unreal gew-gaws is true and just
and, what is more, she saves a great many
small sums for higher purposes. The high
er rulers OF good taste have shown us that
nothing is really graceful that has not a
raison d. etre. Ornaments should be beau
tiful necessary finishes and fastenings.
The brooch Is almost a necessity; and the
bracelet is a natural ornament-as are the
flowers in the hair, the feather in the hat.
skirts looped up with flowers, where it
would be unnatural 10 fasten real ones, do
not seem to me TO be good taste though
the associations Of ball-dress are in favor
of them, and perhaps the dancer is suppOs-
ed for the nonee TO be in fairy costume. Ar
tificial flowers do not exactly come under
the category OF shams, since no one wears
them to deceive. Falsehood as 10 amoun.
of material is bad taste, If no more. The
long train gathered up behind became our
great-grand- but the real folds of
drapery are ill-replaced by mechanical

gives a sense ofspiteful triumph to those
who detect it. And truth in dress leads
to charity; not only by avoiding setting
bad examples, but by making the worn
dress fit TO be given awsy, or cut up for
poor child. To give away disused inery
is no kindnessi but stout dress, past its
first prime, is no small benefit TO a poor
woman, and, lift have not been spoiled in
the making, will last her for years. Such
considerations as these are well worth
keeping in mind when we choose our
dresses, for they greatly increase our pow
ers ofkindness, and, If there be little re-
straint as TO shape and color, it will prob
ably rather improve than detract from the
general effect. Charlotte N. YOn9e.

wha, a Blade Of Gra.. Holds.

Gather single blade of grass, and ex-
anime for a minute, quietly, its narrow
sword-shape strip Of fluted green. Moth
ing, as it seems, there of notable goodness
or beauty. A very little strength, and a
very little tallness, and few delicate long
lines meeting in a point-not a perfect
point, either, but blunt and unfinished -
by no means creditable or apparently
much-cared for example of Natures work
manship; made, as it seems, only to be
trodden on to-day, aud tomorrow to be
cast into the oven; and little pale and
hollow stalk, feeble aad flaccid, leading
down to the dull brown tibers OF roots.
And yet, think Of It well, aui judge wheih-
er of all the gorgeous flowers that beam in
summer air, and Of all strong and goodly
trees, pleasant to the eyes or good for food
stately palm and pine, strong ash and
oak, scented cilron, burdened vine-there
be any by man so deeply loved, by God so
highly graeed, as that narrow point of fee
BILE grass. And well does it fulfill its mis-
sion. Consider what we owe merely to
the meadow grass, to the covering of the
dark ground by that glorious enamel, by
the companies of those soft aud countless
and peaceful spears. The fields Follow
but forth for little time the thoughts Of
all that we ought to recognize in these
words. All spring and summer is in them

rests in MONDAY heat-the joy of herds and
llocks-the power of all shepherd life and
meditalion-the sunlight upon the world

would open on US more and more, yet we
have ii but in part. Go out, in the spring
time, among the meadows that slope from

there with new-mown heaps, filling all the
