see in the last number Of your paper an article
from 'BurnS Station treating mostly on diseased
orthodoxy and want of Christian courtesy. We had
always thought that Burns was sound and healthy
in her theologic machinery, and had not the reno

Christian manners We are sorry to hear this of

who live in the outside world, that there is such
thing as plety and propriey, and that she can prac

Editor, Reriieu,::

Seeing by your papers that you print communi-
CATIONS from persons that are not afraid to give
their names, thought perhaps you might find some
thng OF interest in the following: Now this is my
first attempt at squibs for many years. as there
ought TO be many younger persons more able to do
SO then !. My first will be in regard 10 your last
correspondent isPosted.'' We. do not know whoit
is that has 50 much time to go around caves drop
ping and trying 80 get SO many people in trouble;
but if we cap Hnd him out he had better be posting
himself 70 SOME other place. l. for one, would like
to scold hin, although he has done me no harm;
but tie idea that we women can't go out of our
houses, nor even open'the door, unless every one
prizes into our affairs, is absurd. Now, Mr.. Editor
think You would be doing the females of this place
great Injustice if you neglect to give the PERSONS
name in full, provided he has one.
we {, are tired Of being slandered ana abused in a
public paper in the way it has been done of late;
those writers undoubtedly think themselves very
smart calling this one A, and that one or c. OF
something else, as if we did not know who they
meant. Now, we have better opinion Of the young
men OF this place than to entertain for one moment
the idea that they would use such language as
Posted claims they do. Now, Mr.. Posted. NE
would say you had better go leedle slow, O. you
may have more trouble to get school next win-
er, than YOU did last. AUNT SALLY.

fore that all the powers Of Europe,
except Germany, are the natural
enemies of Russian aggression. 1t
is only fear Of Germany that restraints
them from active opposition. What
if England were bold enough to in
vite them to defy Germany, and to
place herself at their head, and what
IS more important, to offer to foot
the bills? France is not only ready
to accept such ;an invitation in the
moral sense Of burning with an ca.
ger desire to ayenge herself for Sedan
and the milliards, but she is far bet
ter prepared in physical sense than
moss observers imagine. Fhe five
years which have passed since the
reorganization of stable govern
ment after the commune, have been
most zealously devoted, not only to
rehabilitating the treasury, but the
army Of France. The latter work
has outrun the former. Col. Ches-
ney, in his laborious papers in Black.
wood, some months ago, astonished
all readers with his display Of the.
perfection Of strength and organiza-
ton to which the French military
service had been brought. Again,
France is in reasonably fortunate
position as to government, uniting
an assured and strengthened repub-
lie with military head. She would
be most formidable enemy to Ger
many at this moment, and all that
now holds her back from the revenge
upon which she is steadily bent is
the condition Of her finances. If
England furnishes the money she
can afford to declare war tomorrow.
Italy is in similar case. She has in
terests in the east which are fatally
threatened by Russian aggression.
If England fills her depleted treasur-
les with gold, and encourages her to
defy Germany in company with two
such powerful allies as herself and
Francs, Italy might well make the
venture. The result is too tremen-
dous to be readily imagined. All
Europe plunged into war, and the
contending nations so evenly divid-.
ed as to make the contest long and
fierce beyond anything the world
has yet seen. It would be typi-
cal conflict, the struggle of the two
influences that are fighting for
the mastery of Europe. It would
be English commercial against Ger
man and Russian military interests,
English money against Bismarl1's
blood and iron. Austria would hold
the balance of power in such con
f1ict, and her attitude would be the
barometer BY which its result would
be indicated. She would begin
vita fighting by the side Of Russia
and Germany, and would remain
there while success invited her; but
a reverse to the arms of the alliance
would break the power of Germany
to command her allegiance, and her
desertion to England would prob
ably turn the scale ard restore the
present impaired balance of power,
among the nations exhausted by
the long struggle. In this case the
Emperor William and Bismark,
would have simply repeated the ex-
perlencc of Louis XIV, Charles XII.
and Napoleon l.-St. Paul Pioneer.

sEN's FASHIONS.
Beige and olive shadings in soft finished
cloths are the only gentleman's wear this
season, in Scotch tweed and English home
spun for business and general suits, or in
twills and canvas or basket wools for demi-
dress. Various faint stripes and plaids are
worn but are in secondary favor. Fitted
and sack coats are both worn, but the Lon
don sack is preferred by stylish young men.
There is every choice of collars, the old high
pointed style, the round clerical band, the
Byron and the bent English collar being all
found with fashionable shirt makers. The
new hats offer something to suit every mans
style of face-soft beige and drab felt alpine
hats, exceedingly light and fine, pearl and
ash-gray soft hats, half high and low
crowned, with slightly dented crown rough
straw hats of the old monitor shane and
square ones with gay striped ribbons, in

THERE is great rejoicing in the land over
the adjournment Of Congress and there
would probably be an immediate revival of
business, but for the thought that in six
months it will be in session again. The
House has shown itself to be one Of the most
incapable and reck less houses that has ever
ent time. 1t has spent eight months in al
most absolute neglect of its legitimate work,
holding an attitude of constant menace to
the material interests Of the people. Most
of the important legislation ccomplished by
it was of an injurious character. and it would
have been worse but for the checks applied
by the Senate The House did not originate
single valuable measure. 1t devoted days
to pushing through bill to pay mai[car-
riers in the Southern States who became
rebels when the war broke out. even when it
was shown that MANY Of the claimants bad
been paid. 1t refused to make provision for
the distribution Of the balance Of the Geneva
award to men and women who lost their
property because they were too patriotic to
sail their vessels under foreign flag. 1t has
kept the manufacturing industries of the
country in state of uncertainty fo- months,
BY its persistent purpose To fOist upon the
people tariff which set at defiance the the
a-iac of protaatinn fraa trade and enmmnn
sense. By solid Democratic vote that bill
came near becoming a law.
The Senate was almost crippled by its
want of working Republican majority, and
did nSt accomplish all that it might have
done. The session was valuable chiefly as a
warning to the country of what may be ex-
pected if the Democrats get entire control of
both branches Of Congress.
