The "pauper soldier amendment was heartily adopted by the people of Massachu- setts Tuesday, notwithstanding the strong opposition it met with from a part of the press. This amendment secures the old Union soldiers from any forfeiture of their civil rights on account of their acceptance of State aid or of any other relief under the poor-laws of the State. It suspends, in other words in the case of the veteran soldier the disfranchisement which is visited upon others as the proper penalty of pauperism.

We had the pleasure, on Friday evening
last, of enjoying the hospitality of the newly
installed officers of Malta Lodge, No. so, A.,
&. & A. NJ, in a generous entertainment
given at the Ice Cream Parlors of Mr.. Gus
tav Brown. The refreshments served were
of the usual unsurpassed quality furnished
by Mr. Brown, and We are sure that all who
were there enjoyed the occasion very much.
1t was matter for regret, however, that all
present were ''too full for utterance," and
that the pleasures of the evening were not
added to by a7few short, pithy addresses.
The now newly installed officers, however,
will be expected to do these honors at the
next occasion of the kind, and they will be
expected to domean themselves in thorough
dueal style.

Pen and Ink Sketching on Linen.

Pen and ink sketching on linen is In
popular favor. A preparation of gum
is first applied to the fabric, and when
it is dry the place should be pressed with
a moderately hot iron. The design is
first outlined in pencil lightly before
beginning with ink, or the outline may
be placed upon the linen by using car
bon or transfer paper and an ivory or
other hard, fine point. This transfer
should only indicate the design clearly
enough to serve as a guide All express
sion and shading must be left to the pen.
Indelible ink must be used, which
should be frequently shaken to ensure
eYenness. The pen must not be pressed
into the cloth. A broad line must be
made by several light strokes Of the pen,
and not by one heavy stroke. After
the design is completed it should be
exposed to the sunlight two days, so as
to secure all the depth and softness the
sunlight can impart. The depth of
color depends upon the length of time
the design is exposed before the prepare
ton is washed from the fabric. Handker-
chiefs can be beautifully marked in this
way with a little care and attention.
