CoMPLIMENTARY.-We clip the following
complimentary notice from the Washington
Gazette of the 30th ult: .-.-..r ;
Congressman Benjamin f. Martin, of
Pruntytown, Taylor county, W. Va, has
been at the Metropolitan Hotel during tho
most of last week. He is new member.
but has already made himself felt in Wash
ington, and is on one of the leading commit
tees of the House, the Commute on war
claims. He is o straightforward man, with
strong political convictions, excellent habits,
good forensic abilities, and thorough
worker, who, from conscientious considera>
tions, deems it his duty to be worthy of his
hire The Second District of West Virginia
is well represented or we have made great
mistake in the character of its representa-
tive. His lady remains with him during
the session of Congress, and is as fair a
specimen of true womanhood as is often seen.

The Cure for Gossip.

What is the cure for gossip? Simply cul-
I, ture. There is aigreat deal of gossip that
has no malignity in it, Good people talk
about their neighbors because they, have
nothing else to talk about. There comes to
us the picture of a family of young ladies.
We have seen them at home, We have met
them at the galleries of art, we have caught
glimpses of them going from q bookstore or
library with a fresh volume in, their hatstls.
When we meet them they are full of what
they have seen and read. : They are brim-
ming with questions. Ono topic of CONVEX
sation is dropped only to give place to an
other, in which, theySnre interested. We
have left them, after adelightiul hour, stim-
ulated and refreshed; and during the whole
hour not neighbours garment was soiled by
80 much as touch. They had something
to talk about. They knew something and
wanted to know more. They could listen as
we'll as they. could talk. To speak freely of
a neighbours doings and belongings would
have seemed an impertinence 20, them, and
of course, an impropriety. They had no
temptation to gossip, because the doings of
their neighbors formed subject much less
interesting than those which grew out of
their knowledge and their culture. 2.t.
And this tells the whole story. The con-
frmed gossip is always either malicious or
ignorant. The one variety needs a change
Of heart, and the other change Of pasture.
Gossip is always personal profession, eith-
er of malice or imbecility, and the young
should not only shun it, but by the most
thorough culture relieve themselves from all
temptation to indulge in it. It is a low,
frivolous, and too often dirty pastimeI
There are country neighborhoods where it
RACES like pest. Churches are split in
pieces by it. By it neighbors are made en-
emies for life. In many persons it degene>
rates into chronic disease which is practi-
cally incurable. Let the young cure, it while
they may.-Erchamge. -.r ..-

Cuban Milkman.

Few matters strike the observant
stranger with stronger sense of their
popularity, than the Cuban Milkman's
mode of supplying his town or city Gus
toners. He has no cart filled with shi-
ming cans, and they in turn filled with
milk Tor what purports to be milk, but
which is apt strongly to SAVIOR of Cochi-
tuate or Croton, so there can be no de-
ception as to the genuine character of
the article which he supplies. Driving
his sober kline from door to door, he de-
liberately milks just the quantity requir-
ed by each customer, and drives on to
the next. The patient animal becomes
as conversant with the residence of her
master customers as he is himself, and
stops unbidden at regular intervals be-
fore the popular houses, often followed
by a pretty little calf, which amuses it.
self by gazing at the process, while it
wears a leather muzzle to prevent it's
interference with the supply of milk in
tended for another quarter. There are
doubtless two good reasons for this
mode of delivering milk in Havana and
the larger towns in Cuba First, there
can be no diluting of the article; and
second, it is sure to be sweet and fresh
this latter particular desideratum in a
