The compromise of the Louisiana difficulties
seems likely to succeed, in spite of the vehement
opposition of those Northern Democrats who
wanted to keep the sore running for party ad-
vantage. This will be creditable to Mr. Wheeler,
and the other Republican members of the Com

justment
Two propositions for an increase Of New Cas-

wero proposed yesterday, in the House, Mr..
baldwin introducing one, and Mr.. Nowland Civ

report be correct, propose not to make the in
crease by an act of the Legislature, which is the
proper aud Constitutional way, but by an amend
ment to the Constitution which il the rounda-
bout and substantially impossible way. Why
adopt it, gentlemen?
The Board of Trade spent some time, last

Mr. Baldwin does not propose much relief to

there has been serious Misunderstanding be-

which the puddlers paid them. The helpers re-
fused this, and the consequence is the entire

TaE LET-Up IN WINTER. The bright warm
sunshine Of the past two or three days was fol-
lowed last night by a heavy rain which threat
trople has been averted at the present writing,
1880 A. M. The Brandywne is somewhat s@ol-
len and the ice had moved from the first three
dams and passed off without damage Below
the Market street bridge, however, the ice re-
mains unbroken, save a triangular opening,
which has been made in the channel between
the mills. Very little apprehension is now felt
of damage although somo may result when tho
heavy ice comes down from up the stream. The
ice remains firm in the country streams, which
are not swollen sufficiently to break up the solid
sheets, in some places almost two feet thick.
The weather continues warm with indications of

WINTER ENTHUSIASTICALLY Holland, in
Sc ibner's writes as follows on the above
subject. The article may contain some
hints worthy of local appreciation:
ut is an easy thing to establish, either
in country or city neighborhoods, the
reading club. Twenty-Five young men
and women of congenial tastes, habits,
and social belongings can easily meet in
one anOther's house, once during every
week, through five or six months Of the
wear. With small fund they can buy
good books, and, over those read aloud
by one and another of their number. they
can spend an hour and half most pleas
antly and profitably. They will find in
those books topics Of conversation, for
the remainder Of the time they spend to-
gether. If they can illuminate the even.
ing with music, all the better. Whatever
accomplishments may be in the possession
Of different members Of the club may be
drawn upon to give variety to the interest
Of the occasion. This is entirely prxctic
able, everywhere. It is more profitable
than amateur theatricals, and less exhaus-
tive Of time and energy. 1t can be united
with almost any literary object. The
"Shakespeare Club" is nothing but read
ing club, devoted to the study Of single
author; and hakespeare may well engage
4 club for single winter. Such club
would cultivate the art Of good reading
which is one of the best and most useful
Of all accomplishments. It would cult
vata thought, Imagination, taste. In brief,
the whole tendency Of the reading CLUB Is
toward cultlvation-the one thing, not
withstanding all our educational advan-
tages the most deplorably lacking in the
average American man and woman"
