women in china and Japan.

Meeting a Chinese woman we ask,
How many children have you? One. is
the reply. Is it boy OF girl? Oh!
boy, I have two girls, was the answer.
In China we preceive girls do not
count. The woman, however. are
much more free to go about than in
India, but among the upper Classes
how ungracefully and with what diff
Guilty do they get abou5. Their feet,
cruelty crippled in infancy, are i'll wo-
manhood bat a few inches in length,
and the poor ladies are ob igej to
lean upon al attendent for support.
Gladly do We learn that of late, band
of women, recent converts to Chris
tianity, have pledged themselves in
an association to discountenance
this horrible practice.
We go on to japan. aud here we are
at first charmed by what We see of the
Japanese women. Bright eyed and
pretty, with modist and tasteful dress,
their graceful manners and bearing ex-
cite onr admiration, and at the same
time we rejoice as We behold with how
much more regard they are treated
than the women of other Eeastern
bub "hou IC ulIO III COu-
dition of those apparently happy ones?
The following incident may give us a
hint. We are dining in one of the inns
of the country. Presently a native
comes in. He is evidently about to
do something which will amuse the
crowd. All gather around. From a
box which he has with him, the man
scrinkles sands of different colors on
the floor. Under bis skilled
manipulations, beautiful flowers
and objects are formed. We gaze
| upon this pretty diversion with de-
light, but in a moment all is changed.
The lovely flowers are replaced by
loathsome figures and we withdraw In
haste; while the Japanese ladies clap
their hands, and laugh at the hideous
immoraIities created for their amuse-
ment. We are heart sick Once more
over the fouiness of heathenism.-

presented a respondent scene of al
most celestial aspect as the melting muir

mazes of the dance.
The Hall was dazzling with lights
which sp .rkled from flaming gas iets
while pleasure beamsd from the eyes
of each "rare and radiant maiden"
that was there assembled. The affair
was an exceedingly pleasant one, where
gay, animated and appreciated enjoy
ment blushed and bloomed from the
countenapces of all. The dance was
kept up until many hours had swiftly
sped on pleasures wing. when the
nights merry making was brought to
a close. -
Mr.. r. W. Andrews and his able

tlemen having the direction OF the
hop. deserve much commendation Tor

LII the Judges who have, previous to
the present session, been elected NOM
lnslly to Ell unexpired terms, are enti-

a full term of four years, ,hen it FOL
lows that this Genera Assembly had
no right to elect their success sors. This
question covers the cases Of Whipper,

The adoption of the anti-third-term
resolution ty the House is interpreted
in various ways by the press. Some
journals think it kills the spook finally.
others that it has little if any signiti-
canoe. The Chicago Tribune, the
newspaper which astounded the coun.
try a short time sgo with The brilliant
suggestion that the President retire
now and be rcnominated in 1881,
thinks the resolution puts the question
out of politics, and adds: Meanwhile
it is sad to contemplate how many
democratic orators have been nipped
IN the bud, and how mary Democratic
editorials will be still born, on account
of the summary disposition OF the
third term scare-crow. There ism t
even the shadow of an excuse for any
further agitation of the third-term
question. Grant says he doesn't want
third term, and everybody else has
declared that there IS no in ention OF
forcing il upon him, so that we can't
see how this question can cut any
more figure in the political literature
of the day.-New York Tribune.
