a copy of Hsrper's Weekly of March Is,
1878, giving Nasts terrible picture of the
Credit Mobilier culprits. The goddess of
Justice stands befor the srraigned congress
men, with Garfield in the center, and her
frowning face and pointed finger, drawn as
only Mast could draw them, denounce the
eulprits as 'disgraced in the eye of tho pub
lie, for owning Credit Mobilier which was in
fact and intent fraud upon the government;
also for deceit and evasion. The high trust
of legislation misused. The people will not
long respect the laws ifthey lose respect 70

viewing Nasps implement of General Gar.

the present contest, or that Garfed's face
and name are unknown in his caricatures of
$780, Yet Harper's Weekly is SO lost to

Two tramps who have been following Bar
NUNS circus and doing "faking" business
were arrested yesterday morning on the arri-
val of the shows train from Fort Worth by
the police and taken before the mayor. The
sho Tman said that they had prohibited them
from travelling with them, and ii must be
true, for they rode from Fort Worth to this
place on the trucks underneath the train.
The msyor fined them $40 each, in default
Of which sums they were committed to the
station house. They ure both young men,
and they gave 'heir names us j, Gomus al d

A Funny Court Scene.

Last session the New York legislature passed a law making the father ot minor responsible for the child's stealing a ride on 8 street car. The penalty was fixed, and the driver instead of brutally beating the boy or throwing him oil, was required to hand him over to the police William Ryan got on Christo-
 pher street car the other day and did not
 pay his fare. He was arrested. His accuser was somewhat of humorisJ and claimed that as William was only
 twenty years of age he was legally an
 infant. William was vigorous look
 ing sbaby," and 8 half-grown beard
 seemed to utter a silent protest against
 the application of such 8 term to its
 wearer. 'Poor little fellow," said
 Justice Smith. The prisoner got red in the face and bit his lip. $ Is your papa in court, Williep" Ryan fdgeted about and looked as if he would like to have the iudge's head within reach as he an- swered. savagely, No" "That's too bad. You see your papa is responsible for you, and he shouldn't-really he shouldn't-let his children run about lE this manner. I think you should have some guardian or one of your | parents accompany you to keep you out of mischief. You are 8 naughty boy, Willie. and I'll have to fine you BIO. J To look at Ryan's face one would have thought he was in an apopletic lit: He stammered out something winch re reterrec !,

FOR rHE FAIR SEX.
A Curious Petition. .

This was addressed to the governor of South Carolina, in the year l733, by sixteen maidens of Charleston. It ran thus: "The humble petition of all the maids whose names are under written. Whereas, we, the humble petitioners, arc at present in a very melan choly state of mind, considering tow all the bachelors are bindly captivated by widows, and our own youthful chances thereby neglected; in consequence oi this, our request is that your excellency will for the future order that no widow presume to marry any young man till the maids are provided for; or else to pay each of them fine for satisfaction for invading our liberties; and likewise a fine to be levied on all such bachelors as shall be married to widows. The great disadvantage it is to us maids is that tic widows, by their forward car riage, do snap up the young men, and have the vanity to think their merit be- yond ours, which is a great imposition on us, Mno ought 70 nave the prescr- ence. This is humbly recommended to your excellency's consideration, and hope you will permit no further insults. And we poor maids, in uuty bound, will ever pray" The maidens all for lorn would have much approved the edict Of the Portuguese king, which for. bade widows more than fifty years old from remarrying, on the ground that widows of that age commonly welded young men of ID property, who dissi- pated the fortunes such marriages brought them to the prejudice of chil. dren and other relatives.

Insurance for Women.

There is an insurance company for women, writes New York correspond ent. Mrs. Jennie June" Croly and few other public-spirired ladies are or ganiZing it. and great things are ex- pected of 1t. The capital stock is, I believe, $l ,000, GOO, and considerable of it is already taken. David Dudley Field and Governor Dorshejmer are among fhe sponsors of the new company, and have SIO.0O0 worth of stock apiece. Henry Ward Beecher takes an earnest personal interest in the scheme, and a good deal of stock will be raised in Plymouth church. I asked one of the ladies most interested in the company the reason for its organization
 l" Because" she said, "the current in- surauce companies will not insure women's lives if they can help it. They declare women to be undesirable risks, when the best physicians in the world declare that women's chances in life are better than mems"
 Your company will not insure the complacent free white male citizen at allp'' I asked.
 Probably not. We may take some healthy specimens, but the objects of the company will probably be promoted by making it 8 monopoly-conining its advantages exclusively to women"
 What is the reason that existing companies will not insure women, Ii | they are really good risksf"
 ssWell, to tell the exact truth about ] it, there is good deal ot nonsense and sentimentalism in it.. Your naughty superior sex seem to think that it is un- manly, or something or other, for hus- | band to insure wife's life fer his bene. fit. 1t is absurd. and we propose to gel rid of that morbid tenderness"

Words of Wisdom.

The tongue of fool is the key of his counsel, which, in wise man, wisdom hath in keeping.
 The most miserable pettifogging in the world is that of man In the court of his own conscience.
 Speak of peoples virtues, conceal their infirmities; if you can say no good, speak no i'll of them.
 Great powers and natural.gifts do not bring privileges to their possessor, so much as they bring duties.
 Some people think 1t an excess of mag nanimity to forgive those whom they have injured. All of us who are worth anything spend our manhood in unlearning the follies or expatiating the mistakes of our youth.
 There is a great deal of modesty in this world which will gaze at almost anything provided it can be seen l through 8 crack. | Good nature is the very air of 8 good mind. the sign of 8 large and generous soul, and the peculiar soil where virtue prospers. l How narrow our soul becomes when absorbed in any present good or i'll! Ii is only the thought of the future that makes them great. Spite is a little word, but it represents as strange tumble of feelings and com pound of discords as any polysy yllable il
 he language.
