TIE OIL PROSPECTS.
IL Kissing nu net OF Piety.

A writer in the Womsn's journal
takes up the cud gel on behalf Of dancing,
and implicitly of the waltz, on the ground
that as it penetrates the ruder districts OF
New England the boisterous and vulgar
social games OF the rural settlements"
disappear. If there is no dancing there
are "strng- games" and whatever these
things may be they are said to require the
kissing of all the women in the company
each by large lumber OF men. This
rude and indicate familiarity, the
Journal says, tlourishes "under the very
ewes of our revivslIsts, in the church
socIables themselves, where the most in
nocent square dance would be severely
censured. In late murder trial in Yer
mont certain guilty deacon admitted
that he first made the acquaintance Of
his parsmour az a church social at his
own house. While old and young were
playing an old-tashioned game the des
con, as u :oriet, was sentenced to kiss
Mrs c.. Like Fran Cesca ds Riminc,
be LAYS all his trouble: to that kiss.
Since his arrest be has stated that up to
this time he had been true in thought ss
well MS in deed u his wife. The ndtrete
OF this confession seems almost absurd;
but did ever a sinner, indicted for muir
der. race all his errors back to the de-
mora.izing influence ola single dance?
Left to themselves at school festivals, the
young people would like to dance. The
dancing being held Objectionable, some.
thing else must be introduced, and, on
the proposition of string games, one may
see church members, descons, and, for
sught [ know, clergymen themselves,
joining in the rude sport. | have known
it serious ground OF objection to public
schools, on the part of well-bred parents,
that they would not consent to have
their young daughters rudely kissed BY
half the town on such occasions; and l
have seen prcjudices gradually removed
by the substitution of dancing"

Mrs. PiLman has been an invalid for
more than q year past, declining gradu-
ally under the inroads OF an irremedla.
bic disease. Her death was not unantici-
pated, though her loss will be roae the
less mourned. Mrs. PItman, like her
husband, was of English nativity. After
their marriage, which has been
- long and unusually happy one,
they came to this country, first
locating in Philsdelphis, where 1t
was their misfortune to lose two chill
drcn in infancy. They subsequently
removed to Cincinnati, where Mr.. PIT
man introduced and taught the system OF
photography invented by his brother
Isaac During the years that he devoted
exclusively to his art, in publishing
manuals Tor the corresponding and re-.
porting styles, and serial designed to
populariZe his method Of short hand
writing, Mr.. Pitman found in his wife
most competent and active assistant. She
had so far mas .ered the system as 10
Se able TO revise the plates OF the
various publications, and assist in trans
scrIblng the shorthand notes taken by
Mr.. Pitman of political and .-other
speeches which he WAS frequently en-
gagged to report for the daily papers. In
his official capacity rs reporter OF the
trials of the Indiana cOnsplrstors during
the civil war, and in various other mat
tiers, including the Buell. court martial,
Mr.. Pitmsn found IN his wife an invalus-
Bile assistant.
The reporters Of the Associated Press,
and the special telegraphic correspond.
euts of the leading daily papers OF the
country, who were in attendance at the
Greeley Convention in Cincinnati in
1876. have abundant reason % remem-
Der this estimable lady for the efficient
psrt she took in methOdiziug and
promptly transmitting the dispatches
containing the proceedings Of that Con-
ventlon. II was largely her clesrne;s OF
method ard executive capacity that ena-
bled the press to place before the country
each days transactions as rapidly Ms the
events themselves had place. She was a
woman Of remarkable energy-bright,
sctive, cheerful, sympsthetici foremost
within the sphere of her action in every
enterprise that promised public good,
or aimed At the rellei of individual sut-
ierlng or private want. Large hearted
and tree-handed, she knew neither the
