TIE Country Gentleman thinks that
& II II every man would pay his wife 3
weekly sum for housed excepting, cloth

cases ont of ten her management Of the
I fund would increase not only his COM
fort but that Of the whole house, . and.
it''says: Sc II she IS equal TO the task Of
being a wife and mother, she is
also equal to the task of sup.
plying and paying for the daily
necessities Of the home. If she is head
manager she will take pride and pleas
fnre IN making one hundred cents 90 q
great way much further than q man
could make one hundred and fifty 90.
She will also make calculations about
the exllendi ture of the weekly sum;
will lay by q certain amount toward
buying such and such supplies in
quantities; viii learn that there is no
economy in buying soap BY the bar,
starch or sugar by the pound, She
will systematize her affairs, keep her
books day-book and ledger-and

zest to her occupations and make her q
happy and more contented wife. To
most women the idea of asking for,
money is abhorrent. They put it off
from day to day, the dread Of it is so
great: They will wear expensive
clothes in the kitchen rather than ask
for the money needful for the purchase
ola plain calico dress. The subject of
money supplies in the home opens a
wide field Of thought to the husband.
Will he cultivate it? Many wives of
the middle class have been accustomed
to earn their own support, to purchase
their own Wardrobes before they were
married. But after marriage all is
changed; they must ask for what they
require rather than have it paid to
them quarterly. At first their wants
are few. or all supplied; but one or
two years alters their outlook and it
becomes very dreary. Can the hus-
band understand this? / trow not.

To'boggan!!iing..

Il ToBoGGANING is one Of the sports
that is denied to Detroit. This is
greatly to- be regretted, rs it has a de-
pressing effect on many industries that
might otherwise flourish in this CITY.
lfEDetroit had all tile facilities for TO-
bogganing enjoyed by Montreal, the
fiourishingg wooden leg mantifactory of
the latter city might, have, its head
quarters here. Tobogganing gives a
great start TO the surgical institutions
of the place it becomes popular in.
Detroit can never enjoy the thrilling
delights Of tobogganing until some one
has faith enough to move 4 mountain
to this vicinity A good-sized mount
ain and some snow are imperatively
necessary; then stnmps and rocks TO- be
run into can be thrown around pictur-
esquely for pleasure and ornament. A
toboggan is fiat arrangement made of
! bark or thin wood, one end of which is
turned up so as to prevent it blowing
into the snow. A party Of from two to
a dozen sit on this affair and 90 down
the mountain at lightning speed and
across the next two or; three. counties.
When this is done safely Of course there
is no fun in it, so the party tramps up
the hill agaihtands tries it once more.
Occasionally the toboggan runs against
something and turns over q thousand
times or so in half . minute, leayingth
party pictnresquely planted down the
mountain side, and there iswhere the
pleasure Of the trip comes: in The
dead and wounded are picked up and
the remainder OF the party start of
again. This CONTINUES until there is
only one left, and he falls heirsto the
toboggan. There are few more ,e,xhil~
:srating sights than to sec a toboggan.
ing party going Gown d mountain At
terrific. speed, pause on the way and
attempt to climb q tree. When the
tobogggan takes q notion to 90 through
q fence or over q house, tile effect on
the spectator is equi1lly pleasing. All
energetic toboggan ina neighborhood
has about the same effect on the inhab-.
it:.nts as q first class riot OF, a small
war. It brings about good times for
doctors and iniment-makers. = Detroit

Historical II "reminiscences.
COL. WASHINGTON AND TARLE-
TON AT THE COWPESS.

~ II -.
There was no more brave, skillful,
and efficient officer in the British
army during the southern campaign,
than Col. carleton. He was a
very useful auxiliary to CORVALLIS,
and contributed greatly to the sue
cesses Of that officer by his rapid
movements and headlong bravery.
Recentful and sanguinary in his. dis.
position, he.freqpently committed in
the heat Of action excuses which
have furnished his fair fame, and,
at the the time, rendered him an OBJ
ject Of hatred to all classes Of the re-
publicans. The American officers
burned to measure swords with him,
and ifpossible, rid the country Of
one of it's greatest scourges.
One bright morning in January,
1881, on the brow, Of gThieketty
Mountain, III the State Of South Ca
rolina, a body Of American troops,
under command of Brigadier Gen.
Daniel Morgan, were drawn mp in
battle array to receive a force Of
eleven hundred men under Tarelton,
who had pursued them for the past
twenty four hours, exulting In the
prospect Of. a speedy vic tory.
A part Of Morgan's force consist
ed Of the remains Of the First and
Third Regiments Of Dragons, under
Lieut.. Col. VIM. a. Washington,
an active and energetic officer, who
had been very successful In dispers-
ing and destroying varions bands OF
armed tories throughout the State,
aad thus rendered himself uliarly
obnoxious to the vengeance 81. I ar
Teton. That officer was gloryiinlg in
the thought that the Opportunity
now offered of Furnishing this DARN 9
soldier, and, at. the same time, strik.
ing a heavy, if not final, blow at tie
power Of the republicans III South
Carolina. At eight clock III the
morning, he came in ssight Of the
Americans, whowere posted In three
lines along the brow OF Tie noun
tain, with the cavalry, under W ash.
ington, as d reserve, behind q slight
3eminence, sufficient, however, to
conceal them from his sight. He
rode forward to rec onnoitre, but was
driven back to his lines BY the SHARP
FIRE Of the ritlemen of the first Tine.

The New York World, one day last week,
published report of a pretended interview
with Gen. Stewart L. Woodford of New York,
had two years ago by one John f. Mines. In
this report General Woodford is made to say
that President Grant was greatly troubled
about the situation in New York after the de-
cision of the Electoral Commission in 1877 !;
that he feared there would be an attempt to
inaugurate Tilden at New York and seize the
custom house and sub-treasury; that he put
Woodford in the United States District-At-
torneys Office because he wanted a man there
who had smelt powder; and that had a coup
II etdt been attempted, General Woodford's
orders were to arrest Tilden for high treason,
convey him secretly to n gun-bont and whisk
him away to Fort Adams. Further than this,
the government buildings were prepared for
resistance to attack, and regulars and marines
were at call to man them. Troops were
brought from the West and South and masscd
at Washington, Fort McHenry and New York
harbor, and in case of trouble the sharp rem
edy of grape and canister was to be admin
istered to mobs defying the authority of the
government. 1t is to be noted that a con-
venient time, when Gen. Woodford is absent
in Europe, has been selected for the publica-
ton of this story, and also that Mr. Robson.
who was Secretary of the Navy at this time,
and thinks he had chance to know as much
about the matter as anybody pronounces the
interview" "a yarn spun out of Minos's
sensational imagination We have no doubt
the Burlington Free Press is right in presum-
ing that, if Gen. Woodford ever takes any
notice of this story, it will prove that the
grain of truth in it is that Gen Grant and the
government officials at Washington took note
enough of the threats that the Democrats.
with the aid of Gen. Corse's volunteer army
of Democratic veterans, would inaugurate
Mr.. Tilden by force. to consider what means
were available for the protection of the gov
eminent in such an emergency. That Presi-
dent Grant would have made short work of
suppressing a new Democratic revolution,
though led by Mr.. Tildcn himself on horse
back, there is not the slightest doubt, aud in
so acting he would have been doing no more
than his simple duty as the chief executive of
the nation but that he considered the danger
of such revolutionary attempt to be immi-
nent at any time few people will believe
