Saturday, at Semi-2ropic office,
No. 8 Baker Block.
An unexpected degree of interest

ated in an informal meeting of the
members present. The meeting

Gould, J. H. Shields being chosen
President and George Rice Secre-
tary.
indebtedness Of the Society follow
ed. Words of encouragement were
spoken by persons present and for
persons absent. 1t was fairly
shown that certainly most and
probably all Of the Indebtedness
could be speedily liquidated
through an organized effort.
It was voted that q committee OF
four be appointed to canvass for
subscriptions, and the following
gentlemen were accordingly nam.
cd. James Smith, E. X. Green,
g. D. Compton and George Rice.
The resolution ON subscriptions
contained the stipulation that NO
money be demanded on any sub.
scription until the available sub.
scriptions amount to enough to pay
on the entire indebtedness.
It was the empha tieall y.express'
ed wtsh end hope Of the meeting

expenses, that the public be al
lowed to enjoy the Exposition at
the least possible cost. And 1t was
conceded that, with the debts all
paid, and nothing but expenses to
pay, the Society would no longer
need profits. Every one can see how
greatly this condition of things
would promote the efficiency Of the
Society.
Coupled with Acknowledgements
Of the hitherto freely given and
powerful assistance OF the news
papers, it was voted that they be
respectfully requested to continue
their friendly words In behalf of
the Society.

The Life of Shop Girls.

A New Y ork woman Mrs Amelia Lewis, is try
ing to persuade shop keepers that the girls in their
employ having to stand behind counters and sell
goods all day need something more to sustain them
than the cold and indigestble lunches which they
bring with them and that it would be better econ
omy in the end if the employers were TO porvde
them with not lunch than to have them continue
as at present BY way Of practical demonstra-
tion Of her theory she gave adlnner to thirty shop
girls the other evening, consisting of rice soup,
stewed beetsteak and potatoes stewed mutton and
caper sauce and turnips and plum pudding The
total cost was three dollars, or just ten cents for
each girl There is something in this suggestion
which is worth the attention of shopkeepers The
principal objection with most would be the lack of
suitable accommodations for preparing the meal
but this perhaps might be arranged with some per
son outside who, for moderate charge would
send in the necessary supplies at stated time
The employers could reimburse themselves by
some arrangement with the girls The plan could
be made practicable, in great many cases at least
With shop girls provided with the means of sitting
when not waiting upon customers, and given an
opportunity to enjoy little warm food at noon, we
should have made considerable progress in the hui
name treatment of this hard working and not Law
ishy paid class.

Level Culture.

At the beginning of farm life, in order
TO learn the most improved methods, |
employed first class farmer and gar
dener, fresh from England. He persisted
in a mode of cultivation precisely the re-
verse of what had been used to see
allowing the mangels and sugar beets,
the corn, potatoes, peas, beans, cucum-
bers, melons, tomatoes, cabbageS, etc, to
go without any hiIling up. The mangels
and sugar beets stood high above the
ground, the dubious parts exposed to the
sun, many ofthe mangcls falling over and
growing crooked. The part OF the Gu
cumbers above ground which | insisted
was rather root than a stem, and should
be surrounded by earth, was left entirely
exposed to the sun. | thought the sun
would parch the roots and they would
break or be injured when the stem should
fall from the upright to il horizontal posi-
ton.
The Enylishman would nave his way, but
agreed should treat some Of each sort OF
plants in myown way. So a few OF all sorts
We're hiled up, and fully as well worked in
other respects as his, during the season.
For few weeks mine grew as we'll as MS,
and the cucumbcrs, peas, etc, bloomed as
early. After one gathering ofcucumbers
peas, etc, and the dry season set in, mine
perished, while his continued to bloom
and bear, and SO of the melons. My po
tatoes made about half Il crop OF small
tubers, dug from dry hills: his yielded
b0unteously OF large ones, dug from moist
earth, at the same time in the same field.
So with the mangels. sugar beets, etc.
The hilled peas, beans, etc, fired early in
the season and succumbed to the drought.
Without this experience, if one had said
that killing up growing plants would kill
them, should have joined in the response
of "A million farmers, denonncng it rs false
and contrary to experience because they
did not perish on the day that they were
hilled up. Ever since | have avoided
hilIing and lidging about growing plants,
and cultivated the soil as ievelly as pos
sble. Correspondent Of the American

by the financial mlsdeeds of what are ludicrously
called 'carpet-bag governments may be inferred
from two facts First, no taxes have been since
levied to pay any of these bonds said to have been
Incorporated after issue, although not improp

pie repudiated all of these bonds but they have
also repudiated large portion of their antebeum

their slaves by force of arms The South is ri cher

The Uplifted Gates.

Silent and soft from measureless circle,
Cloudy battalions, in royal array,
Move on to westward in bllowy splendor,
Follow, majestic, the monarch of day.
Flashing, he wheels toward radiant horizon,
Sinking in vistas Of heavenly hue;
Gold, like the radiance of pavements celestial,
Crimson and silver abreast of the blue.
Up toward the cloud ranks that noiselessly follow
Streams new glory, etfulgent, divine; -
Each floating billow shines lustreus and tender,
Shining in radiance, ethereal, sublime.
Down, past the distant and shadowy mountains
Sinks the great dazzling and glittering SUM-
Each tinted cloud floats away with new splendor,
Soft in the blue hangs the pearl-tnte moon.
Was it strain from the choir angelic,
Bore on the silence and lost in mid air
Are those the wings of the cherubim, Fastening
On to the great host whose rapture they share
gates of glory, stand open yet longer.
Trembling gaze at the luminous doors.
Yearning to win but word from the silence,
Only one sign from the answerless shores!
