DR.. J. Y. MURRY, one Of the leading
and most public spirited citizens Of
North Mississippi, has been making OBJ
servations at the Capital, and writes,
among other things, as follows to the
Ripley Advertiser
After being here a week, and getting
expressions from many members Of both
branches Of the Legislature, having been
granted the privileges Of those bodies,
take ipleasure in saying that there will b.
no difficulty about the enactment Of our

Our Representatives, Dalton and Wolf

Washington CITY Gazette.
We learn that the subcommittee of thu
Committee on Agriculture, to whom was
referred Mr.. Muldrew's bill, making the
Commissioners of agriculture Departmental
officer of the Government. and thereby a
member of the Cabinet, will report favorably
on the same at an early day. By-the-way.
Mr.. Bayard is advocating similar measure
in the Senate. The agriculturists of Mr..
Muldrow's State and, indeed, of the entire
Union, are certainly indebted to him for
the interest he has taken in this measure,
and should the bill become law. it will be
lasting monument to Mr.. Muldrow's en-
ergy and capacity, as well as fitting COM
pliment to majority of the voters and
tax payers ofthe United States-that is, the
agricultural community.

THE bill has passed the New York
Legislature making women eligible tC
serve as School Trustees, and permitting
them to vote at elections for school off
GERS. There can be little question about
the wisdom of allowing full scope t.
their influence ON public education, il
which they are faithful and efficient
workers; nor of giving them equal ad
vantages with the male sex in acquiring
knowledge for the practical pursuits o
life.

SENATOR HUMPHREYS in presenting
the petition of the citizens of Lee coun-

ing letter from Hon. w. Ii. FL. Tison ;
BALDWIN, Miss, Feb. TO- 1880.
Hon. w. w. HUMPHREYS, Jackson, Miss.
DEAR SIR-Incosed hand you a petit
ton asking for some legislation at the pres
ent session of the Legislature in favor of
the regulation and control of charges for
freights and travel, and to prevent unjust
discrimination and extortion by railroads
in the State. 1t is almost the universal
desire on the part of the people for some
such legislation to be enacted. If there is
doubt about the constitutionality of such
legislation, the only way to settle such
doubt is to get the question in some way
before the Courts and have the question
settled. Until this is done it will be
question before the people and the Legsla-
ture, and it would be a great relief to all
parties to have the question disposed of in
some way. | am, very respectfully,
w. IL, IL. TIsoN.

Jostle him out from the warmth and light
Only yagra Mt feeble and gray
Let him reel on through the stormy night
What though his home be miles awayY
With muttered curse on wind ana RAIN
He crept along through the miry lane.
Lonely the pathway. and dark and cold,
Shelter he sought meath a ruined wall;
Over his senses numbness stole,
Round him sleep threw her mystic pail
Then an angel came with plying tears
Ana lifted the veil of byg0ne years.
Gayly he sports by a ripping brook;
Soft Is the breath of the summer air.
Flowers adorn each NOISY nook.
Sunshine and happintss everywhere.
He is Willie now, Just four years old,
With his rosebud lips and curls Of gold
Hark to the roll of the warlike druml
See the brave soldiers go marching byl
Home from the battle young Will has come,
Courage and Joy In his sparkling eye.
And his pulses thrill with hope and pride,
For he soon will greet his promised bride.
Now in the fresides Hickering glow
Calmly he's taking his evening rest;
FOndly he kisses his infants brow,
Sleeping secure on Its mothers breast
(And the dreamer stirred and fainty
He is william now with wife and child.

Faint was the flush in the eastern sky;
Moaning and wretched the sleeper woke,
Brushing tear from his bloodshot eye.

With saddened heart crept poor old Bill.

HEATING CARS BY CHEMICALS. new
plan devised by French engineer for
heating railway cars appears to give sat
isfactory sesulls so far. 1t consists sim.
ply in the use for the foot-warmers OF
acetate of soda, a substance which
has considerable latent heat, and, DIS
solving at a certain temperature, absorbs
large quantity of heat, which becomes
sensible during crystalization in cooling.
All that is r, quired is to fill the ordinary
casqs with sufficient amount OF the
acetate, clio them, and place them in
stove at about 100 degrees. The cooling
of a Sc thus charged and heated takes
from twelve to fifteen hours. The warm
ers are thereafter taken from the COM
p,r,ments and placed in stove, where
the CRYSTALS of soda acetate are re-dis-
solved, and they are then ready for fresh
use. The advantages claimed for TINS
system are: No necessity OF changing
warmers every two or three hours, or OF
maintaining numerous employees to at
tend to them, also economy IN cost OF
heating, etc.

Evening Thoughts.

The evening shadows deepen,
The busy day Is done,
AMI in the blue above US
The stars CLEAN one by one;
Beautiful stars that were hidden till now
In the fierce, hot glare of the sun.
And In the gathering darkness
hear the hurrying feet
or the thr0ng returning honeward
Along the crowded street;
Eager In homes dear shelter
Beloved ones to greet
see from every easement
The glow of ruddy light
Flashing, like precious Jewels.
Upon the robes of night,
Telling of cheer and welcome
Far warmer and more bright.
And my thoughts go on to the mansions
Prepared for us on high
In the eternal city
30 far off, yet so nigh
And the shining stars seem the household light
OF those homes beyond the sky.
And there my loved ones are waiting,
Waiting my face to see
When shall rest from my labors;
And know that there W. II be
Among those many mansions
One made ready for me.

Tsr Emperor and Empress of Ger

TIE Emperor and Empress OF Ger
many see each other as little as possible
1t is somewhat curious how few mon
archs do get on with their wives and the
wives with the husbands, for they sell
dom adore each other. The Empress OF
Austria is seldom seen in society, and
when out riding or driving carries fan
before her face, even when returning the
greetings of her royal admirers. She
seldom attends the theater or opera,
but when the circus comes TO town Is
then seen in her box every night. She
knows only one passion, and that is her
love of horses and equestriinship. She
has her own especial riding establish
ment, aud here she reigns supreme. She
will drive tandem team before her at
a relentless pace around the ring, having
fresh RELAYS of horses every few mln-
utes. She has place fitted W in the
stable of her fayorite charger wnere she
can sleep if she feels so disposed, and
where she frequently dictates her letters
to her private secretary, while her Ia.
vorite horse looks over from his stall
and is patted fondly by bis imperial
mistress.
