dandehon blossoms. Strawberry blossoms were
hrst seen three weeks ago last Sunday, when grass
had just started, except in favored places, where
it was just large enough TO cover the ground with
green, and the trees had hardly full leaf. Now,
grass IN many places is more than two feet high,
some lodged already. Grain completely covers
the ground. Beans and potatoes are up six inches
or more high, and the whole country is vast

Mississippi is in luck. The Mississippi
Central Railroad has for years owed that
State the sum of 81 $4,000 The road was
unable to pay either the principal or the in
terest of this debt for some years, and it ran
along until it amounted altogether to 81 300,
600. A short time ago the road was sold
n ominally to nine men, who, as corporators,
became the Central Mississippi Railroad, "
but in reality to the Illinois Central.
The point, however, in which the people of
Mississippi are most interested is the money
due the State. The new corporation has on
hand about $1,30O,0OO in Tennessee bonds,
commanding fair price, with which they
intend, the Legislature consenting, to cancel
the Indebtedness of the road to the State of
Mississippi This will put a large amount in
the treasury of that State. The Mississippi
papers are already discussing the uses to
which this money shall be put. 1t is sug-
gested that it be re-invested for the encour-
agement, by way Of loan of internal i'm
provement, and the development of the re-
sources Of the State. Whatever is done with it
it is certain tina. Mississippi is luckier in her
finances than any other Southern State, since
she is without a State debt and with a large
balance in hand, or at least in prospect.

The advocates of woman's rights succeeded
some years ago In getting the authorities OF
Wisconsin to open the university of that
e State to female students. Quite number of
these have been In attendance at the college
Z Tor some years past. The result of this CO.
education is not at all flattering to women, or
4 promising to those who favor the plan of
Throwing open all schools to both sexes.
The average standing of the female students
mt the Wisconsin College is extraordinarily
low, and show either that woman is mentally
~ inferior to man, or that co-education at
college ia failure. The advocates of woman's
rights are greatly disturbed ct this showing,
md are seeking to explain 1t ina dozen differ
emit ways. Miss Jane Grey Swisshem writes
10 the New York Tribune somewhat
3 novel explanation OF the matter. According
IN her, this poor showing Of the female
N6fudents at the University Of Wisconsin is
mot owing, in the least, to any real mental
! 3nferiority on their part, but to their cloth
ting s5nne. Clothing makes all the difference
1n tfrs world in ones mental powers. The
4oFnaae mind, to-day, Is fettered, cramped
s&Ad enfeebled, says Miss Swisshelm, by the
Ibarbarous clothing women wear; and their
inferiority and subsection to man is owing
@eolely to this cause. Tight lacing, high heels,
garters, tight shoes and a lack Of suspenders
fnre the true cause Of woman's mental and
legal inferiority. Co-education, instead of
bringing woman up to the level of
man, has exactly the opposite effect,
and Increases the difficulty in the
\ matter OF clothing by stimulating the
spirit Of coquetry in the girls and CIV
I ING provocation and excuse for those silly ex-
cesses In dress which stunt physical growth
and impair mental energy. 1t is discovered
that the girls dress much more plainly at
i Nassar and other colleges where they are
gnlone, and show a far better average in their
Studies than at the University Of Wisconsin,
where co-education prevails, since, at the for
Hmer, there are no inducements, in the pres
ence OF young men, to persuade them to lace
8fight, torture the feet, etc.
Miss Swisshelm comes to the conclusion
that until the women of America can be
taught to dress properly lin boomers, she
Aprobably neans), they had best be taught
Everything else in separate institutions.

st. Louis Is making an earnest and energet-
lie fight against smallpox. That loathsome
d isease has never prevailed in that city to
anything like the same extent it has in New
Orleans, yet the most strenuous efforts are
now being made not only to wholly eradicate it
| but to prevent it's temperance in the future.
| Among the measures adopted to this end is
an order lately promulgated by the superin-
tendents of the public schools, refusing to
allow any unvaccnated children to attend
them. This rule is strictly observed and oc-
ular proof of recent vaccination Is demanded
of the children before they can get their
names placed on the rolls of the public schools
No opposition has yet been developed to
this rule, although the School Board is anx-
ious to have a case arise in order to test
its legality. 1t may appear somewhat
tyrannical end arbitrary as many persons
disbelieve in vaccination, and will not permit
it in their families. Similar and even severer
regulations, however, prevail in most Euro
pean countries, and in Bavaria, a marriage
cannot be contracted unless the parties to it
have furnished proof of vaccination.
1t may be remembered that some years ago,
when the Board of Health of this city was
Radical body, that great deal of excitement
was created here by the invasion Of the pub
lie schools by several sanitary inspectors,
who commenced vaccinating the children
Of these schools willy-nilly. This was
loudly protested against and finally stopped.
The st. Louis board had such plan before it
for consideration, but declined to permit it
and decided finally on the ru Z of vaccination
in advance as passport to % ublic schools.
