A GIRL in town sat down on her lovers
hat and kept him three hours over time.
Our advice: the next time that young
man goes to see his girl he should hang
his hat on nail instead of holding it
in HE lap.

GALLO EPIGRAMs ON WOMEN. - All
the ill we say OF women is only precau-
ton of our pride. We hasten to pro-
claim ourselves duped by them lest it
should be discovered that We are the
dupes ourselves.
1t is hard to say which is the rarer
nowadays; the woman who knows her
self. or the girl that doesn't.
There is this essential difference be-
tween vice and virtue-one is nearly al
ways a state of being, while the other is
as generally way of thinking.
Lost women are those found every
where.
For many woman VI rtue is only an
advantage which it is well TO have over a
rival
1t is infinitely more odious for won.
an to bargain about herself than TO sell
herself
The German woman is covered, the
English woman clothed, the French
woman dressed. Fashions are created in
Paris, copied in France. and run into the
ground abroad.
The average female dresses for hel
lover or her husband, the girl for her ri
walls; but only the true woman for her
self.

A Pretty Singer.

The entertainment and delight of hear
ing tiny bird sing real tune must re-
pay one for even the long installing
necessary to teach it such an accomplish
ment. Whether this kind of training al
ways deprives the bird of the power to
sing natural song of its own, we do not
know. If so, its single tune might pos
sibly become monotonous. However.
tune singing bird is real wonder any
where, and few melodies could sound
sweeter in canary's throat than Life on

j. G. Christopher, a barber Mt Ballston

canary bird, the voice of which has been
developed in II peculiarly painstaking

known air, "A Life on the Ocean Wave
The bird will commence to MARBLE like
any other of these pets, but after utter
ing a few notes will Immediately strike
into the tune, and when its voice has at
tanned full height the above tune will be
sung entire, and in manner that sounds
singularly melodious and attractive, lit

powers.
This was also achieved after the most
diligent and patient attention. AS soon
as the bird WAS old enough to pick up
living, it was put in room apart from
all others, and n music box also placed
in the apartment that was kept perpetu-
ally going, repeating the one tune over
and over again, so that this singular pupil
had no other person to learn from but
that. After four months of such APP
premiership, the owner was rewarded by
hearing this little favorte render "A Life
on the Ocean Wave" as naturally and per-
fectly as if that was the song Of its an
cestors.

A MAN near Pittsburgh. Pa. recently
advertised for bookkeeper, and within
twenty four hours he had one hundred
and thirteen applicants for the position.
subsequently he sought man for his
farm by the same means. and had eight
responses. These figures represent very
fairly the disproportion of laborers in the
various industrial pursuits. There are
men needed in abundance for agriculture
and other manual labor, but when young
fellow is able to write Il fair hand, and

novelty and freshness of such gatherings
had worn off. Jewels flashed and spar
killed., and lent an added brillancy to the
scene. The air was full of strange and
sweet perfumes. The soft and mellow
music from an unseen band made the air
vibrate with exquisite melody.
Kate Leith, in dress of some rich
fabric, that set off the beauty of her face
to perfection, looked out upon the scene
with hope stirring in her heart that was
very sweet and tender. The man who
had loved her in the years gone by was
there. She was free now, and she knew
that she loved him. If in all these years
he had not forgotten her, And then the
woman's heart stirred with feeling that
was inexpressibly tender. Her life had
lacked something that gold could not
purchase. 1t was love that she needed
to make her life what the life of every
woman ought to be.
A swift color flashed into her checks
He was coming toward her with sweet
faced woman leaning on his arm. He saw
her, and came forward with outstretched
hand.

he said.
Her eyes dropped under his gaze, and
soft, happy light came and went in
them. She gave him her hand with an
eagerncss that told how glad she WAS to
see him.
"Allow me to present my wife. Lois,
this is an old friend of mine, Mrs. Lcith."
Every trace of color faded from the
woman's face. But she gave his wife her
hand in smiling welcome, and muir

the military committee upon the several
schemes or Of reorganization now before
it, and which have not yet been consid-
cred in single committee meeting. The
Indian appropriation bill will depend
largely upon the action of congress upon
the question of transferring the control
of Indian affairs to the war department,
which measure has not yet been reported
to the house. 1t is barely possible that
other appropriation bills will not be re-
ported till the house finally passes upon
the tariff and internal revenue questions
now before the ways and means commit
tee, for it cannot be determined how
much to spend upon the several depart
ments until it is known what amount of
revenue it is proposed to raise. The sill
yer bill still hangs fire, and is likely to
be discussed for some days yet, while
the repeal of the resumption act will
lead to prolonged debate, and bill
substituting greenbacks for national
bank notes is likely to be reported by
the house committee on banking and
currency and to be fercely fought. The
questions concerning the Pacific rail
roads and subsidies in the shape of COM
pensation to American vessels for carry
ing the mails are also prominent, anC
will be urged by their promoters with
persistency. If on top of this the house
investigating mill gets to work, as i
seems altogether probable it will, Their
is no telling how many months the ses
sion may be prolonged.

Again the hopes of the public, if not
of the afflicted parents of the stolen
child, Charley Ross, have been excited
only to be disappointed. For several
days statements were published to the
effect that boy closely resembling the

timore from Demerara. Mr.. G. X. Ross,

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS OF THE MoNIroR.]
WASHINGTON, Feb. u. 1878.

ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS THE MoNIroB.l
WASHINGTON, Feb. II, 1878.
1t is unquestionably time that deep
er feeling of Indignation has been arous-
ed among representative Republicans
here by the prosecutions of the Louisiana
Returning Board, than by any one of
the many other untoward events that
have grown out Of the adoption of the
"conciliatory policy" This feeling has
assured very decided character since
the conviction of Anderson by the pack
ed jury. The indifference manifested
by prominent administration officials to
the fate of his members has, under the
circumstances, provoked the severest
comments not only among the impeaca-
ble'' and those of the "stalwart" order,
but among the larger number of the
leaders who have carefully abstained,
heretofore, from anything more decided
than the mildest protests. All sorts of
rumors are ahoat as so the hat denuncia-
tion of the President by Republican
Senators during the executive sessions
of the past few days. The failure to
withdraw billiards name as minister to
Brazil, after, 1t is claimed, his offensive
record as one of the most pestiferous of
original secessionists had been exposed
in Committee and executive session, and
his moral unftness had been demonstrate
ed, has intensified this feeling of dissat-
isfaction. 1t would be quite needless to
specify wherein Wade Hampton has
utterly ignored his word and .shonor, y
never more solemnly pledged than here
last spring to let "bygones be bygones. .
In the estimation of large majority Of
our Republican population, where he
has not openly violated the spirit of the
promises then made, he has connived a.
the proscriptive acts OF the mob legisla
ture. recognized as legal when he wa'
acknowledged Governor of the Fedora
Government. He is charged with hav
ing tacitly encouraged placing under
ban, large majority of the citizens o
the State so that, at the present time
they really are worse off than lik
number of aliens would be under th
laws of South Carolina. If Nichols re

promises he made in behalf of the Bul
Dosers of the Pelican State, and of whic
he has been SO guilty in the case of tn

THE LOUISIANA RETURNING
BOARD.

The action of the democrats in Louis
lana in arresting and indicting the mem
bers of the returning board in that state
for alleged tampering with and altera-
ton of election returns, at the last
Presidential election, seems, at this late
day, and after the conclusions made them
by the President. to be a gross wrong
and fragrant piece of treachery. Indeed,
we learn from pretty good authority,
that many of the better class of citizens
of that state, although democrats, dep
recate such action, and insist that it is
unwarranted and uDjustifable. Of
course there have been many things
connected with the public administration
of affairs in that state for the past fif-
teen years which no good citizen can
help deplore but which party has re-
sorted to the more desperate measures to
carry their point is an open question,
and one which will probably never be
solved. Now at this time when peace
has been restored to Louisiana, and the
government and the people seem to be
working together in harmony for the
good of the state, it seems too bad to dig
up the buried sectional tomahawk, and
commence scalping each other again.
That the trial of General Anderson has
been grossly partisan and unfair every
one must concede, and the Bourbon ele-
went of the dominant party in that state
will have to bear the consequences Of
reviving party and race hatred, the
fruits and results of which cannot be
| coniectured

Europe is in great agitation over the
final settlement of the questions of
peace between Russia and Turkey, but
the dispatches are SO contradictory that
it is extremely difficult to learn just
how the matter stands to-day. Several
British vessels have passed into the sea
Of Marmora and anchored within few
miles of Constantinople. 1t is said that
this was done against the wishes of the
Turks. The Russians occupy positions
close up to, if not within the city of
Constantinople, and will be ordered to
occupy the city if the British feet ad-
vances. 1t is not believed that England
means hostilities by the advance of her
war vessels or her general preparation
for war at home. but that she thinks to
awe Russia. and make the terms of set
Element more favorable to British inter-
ests in the East.
In the meantime Austria is getting
uneasy, and desires to have a hand in
the settlement. On the whole, the
European sky is very much clouded, and
it is not improbable that war of great
er magnitude than the present may grow
out of the complications.

Hon. Geo. @. Cannon, delegate from
Utah in Congress, admits that the inAu-
enccs now at work will ultimately de-
stroy the Mormon church. He is re-
ported as saying: with free hostile
press constantly attacking the church,
with the railroads, the telegraphs, the
various proselyting efforts of all the diff
ferent denominations, through their free
schools, and other agencies, working
against it, nothing but the interposition
of divine power can prevent the ultimate
downfall of the system. This will, as
any one can see, be the natural result !;
but. as a Mormon, firmly believing in
the faith, have no doubt of divine
succor, and, in common with my fellow
religioLists, look for the promised pro-
lection from above" We do not think
there will be any miraculous interposition
to preserve this foul blot upon our
civilization.

The merchants have, at last begun to
act with some vigor on the silver ques-
ton. The Executive Committee appoint
ed at the meeting Of bank presidents to
protest against the passage of the Silver
Bill have presented lengthy memorial
TO Congress which, if it is read, ought to
carry with it some weight, even in that
body, both by reason of its careful state
ments and Of the names appended to it.
The notable assertion is made that Ger
many and France are both preparing for
a gold standard, and are hoping for re-
mnnetization of silver by Congress to
create a market for their silver surplus.
The practical inconvenience of silver as
a currency are beginning to be seriously
felt in all the great trade centers, so Sc
riously that if the friends of an honest
and simple currency can secure sufficient
delay the actual facts will prove an ar
gument which the silver mine owners
will be unable to overcome. Our bonds
are coming back from Europe in consid.
cradle amounts. 1t is estimated that al
least S60,00O,000 have, within ninety
days. gone out of this country to pay
for bonds returned. Thus, the effect Of
the silver agitation already has been mo-
only to prevent the sale of bonds, but t.
draw from our country capital which, il
the present stagnation of business, il
sOrely needed to keep our mills in oper
alton and our hands employed.

GEN ERAL GRANT IN EGYPT.

We have not heard much of General
Grant of late, but now we have intelli-
gence of his arrival in Egypt, and of
the honors paid him in that ancient
country, not only by the American res
idents, but by the Khedive and his off,
GERS of state. At Cairo he and his par
ty occupied one of the government pala-
ces-Palace of Joy. He visited the
Khedive, who soon returned his call. He
also called on various princes, as ETH
quette required. In honor of the dis
tinguished visitor, Judge Batcheller held
a reception, at which were present, in
becoming attire, the city's elite. consist
ing, besides the American colony, of
officers and Judges. An official dinner
was given by the Consul General of the
United States at the Grand New Hotel
the property, by the way, of the Khe-
dive. There also were present, besides
the American colony of judges, officers
and missionaries, members of the diplo-
matte body tribunals, and some select
visitors. General Grant escorted the
wife of the Spanish Consul General,
and Mrs Grant was escorted By the
host, other guests following to the table.
The first toast drank, of the evening,
was to the President of the United
State; the second to his Highness the
Khedive, and the third-all given by
the Consul General-as General Grant,
and, in the language of Mr.. Farman,
''ex-President of the United States, and
our distinguished visitor of the evening,
in honor of whom We are assembled to
express in manner our appreciation Of
his exalted worth as leader of armies,
and as mariner at the helm of state. -
