Also agents for the sale Of the eel
ebrated Philadelphia Improved Rus
tic Window Shade, which for drra-
bility, cheapness, convenience and
beauty, cannot be surpassed. Each
shade is furnished with all the txt-
ures complete, and only requires two
lath nails or small screws to fasten it
up with. Should they become soilcd
by flies, they can be spread on table,
washed and made as bright as new,
and will last for years. This style Of
shade is much superior to cloth
shades. In warm weather, when the
window is raised, the shade admits
the air but prevents flies and mosqui-
toes entering the room. The simple
i,y of their fixtures is much in their
favor, as they REQUIRE no rollers, each
shade being complete, and any one
can drive two nails by which to hang
them. They are low in price, dura-
bic, convenient. and never get out OF
order. Call at store and sec samples.

THE SPIRIT or THE SNOW

Robert Buchanan, IN The Gcntlen,an''
Mdgdzinc.
Wondrous are flowers strangely wrough
BY unseen mystic hands;
Won lrous are lilies of the lake,
Pink shells Of the sea sands.
o, wondrous is the green deep grass
Forever bright and new,
And wondrous on the grass-blades
hang
The crystals Of the dew.
The rain is wondrous; soft and slow
Her measured footsteps chime;
No touch is softer than the Rains
In the sweet Summer time.
Wondrous are all secret shapes
That silent come and 60,
But sweetest blesscdest of all
Is the spirit of the snow.
A spirit ever with blind eyes,
And silent feet and swift,
A spirit white and beautiful,
In the dark world adrift!
Oh, she is fair, and very fair
An angel with blind eyes,
She walked in that lonely air,
Or croucheth low, and signs.
But when the summer days are here
And blow with warm sweet breath,
She lies stone-still in the North,
Yes, in trance Of Death

A FRAUD.

SIN rrti,fp under the nT,1rmatTdgs OF the peo-
pie and the criticisms OF the press, the last ses
sion of the Legislature of Virginia 1acteu
law proyiiline that when recess OF t..at body
was ordered for longer sps5ied than three
days,rtla per diem Of members shoald not DC
dra#n.for the time in excess OF three days. Inc
Legislature had taken ten Gays hollaay ana
the pay went OH during ths time. Cohtofhi'
Ing to this law, the present session ADJOURNED
on the aad of December for three days. AT
the expiration of that time, "a few members
met, and no quorum being present, ADJOURNED
over to the next day, and so the farce was con-
tinuea utftilStil holidays were over-no quo
rsmrbsinp present to transact business. Not
understanding the law, and the practical recess
OF the body, the members will draw thelf per
diem during the time the legislature protested
to meet, but really when no legal body was in
session, This is a transparent fraud, and ex-
hibits cupidity and s duplicily uv.rrv,;sss me
seyerest censurc We DIE not Of those who
have heretofore complained of the legislature
Tor adiourning over for the holidays and drawing
the per diem. 1t would, however, have SHOWN
= proper regard for the impoverished condition
Of the people, if they had refused to accept pay
for services not rendered. But if members
could reconcile it to their sense OF right to take
the pay, we should raise no unreasonable howl
about it.
We regard the course pursued by the pres
cnt session as infinitely more discreditable
and calling for the sternest condemnation
They pass law declaring it mot right to re-
ecive pay for longer recess than three days,
and then by a subtcrfuge manage to cpade Its
force and practically take ten days recess and
yet draw the por diem. The routine, after the
expiration OF the three dsys, was observed OF
meeting, prayer sometimes, and Adjournment
Invariably within fifteen minutes after m:ct-
Ing.
VIC appeal to the honest sentiment of the
State, irrespective OF party, to know whether
this is right? The expenses of the Legislature
ar. not loss than s., 0)3 u day. Here are $780,
ODD to b. taken out of the treasury, without
pretending to reader all equivalent. There
kas been consumed already thirty days of the
time allowed for Legislative services, at an ex-
pensc of $50, 0oa,and nothing yet accomplished
It is quite probaIA, that the session will reach
over the " t;lys, aAA eAia@sC Ino o. uayS OK
ira. which it is Legal to employ. This will re-
q',ire $4,000 of the peoples money-all, in
fact, that is at this time in the Treasury.
We do not pretend to say that the Legisla-
ture OF Virginia is worse than similar bodies OF
other States. But we do aver that the party
it represents should be careful how they throw
stone, ut other people. We cannot conceive
IN orc g!aring deception than the law passed in
,ex,rJ to per diem ana recess, and the prac-
.ic: under it. Yet the people have to foot TIE
BILL. Patriots all, for it is the Conservati, c or
Democratic party. We presentsthese facts for
he taxpayers to digest.
