a market in which a million of CON-
petitors are sure TO "get left in the
struggle for something not only desira-
bic but absolutely necessary. Instead of
submitting-as history attests they have,
in several well authenticated cases, TO all
sorts of Inconvenience and privations,
for the sake of being married and haE-
ing a home, the time is even now at
hand when the ladies can arrange the
terms of the marital contract according
to their own ideas. The freckled man
with carroty hair will become the
football of feminine caprice, and the
monster in human flesh who asks at
table for ''them molasses," and winds
his syrup up on his knife, will
be allowed to pursue that appe-
Paper "dickeys" and alligator boots will
become legitimate grounds for social Os-
tracism, and women will doubtless be-
come so arbitrary in the matter Of bibu-
lous indulgences, that it will be almost
impossible for any man outside of Kan
sas to get a wife. Men will be driven to
the wall on the '.jiner' issue, and will
be Obliged to choose between the unhal-
lowed worship Of the goat and the Sc
rene joys of the fireside. The picture
of women welding the ak and packing
in wood, will soon live only as a tradi-
ton of a barbaric age. Wives will
cease 10 take in washing, and their hus
bands will go out to saw wood. That
prolific source OF domestic infelicity, the
kitchen fire, will be forever Invested
of Its power to mar the
peace of the household, and it
is within the scope OF rational prophe-
cy TO aver that the young minister of the
next generation, will buy his own slip
pers, and stimulate The tender passion in
the stony heart of his dearest idol, by
reckless offerings Of Burt shoes, not to
speak of all varieties of expensive fancy
work
We congratulate the ladies upon the
bright omens which begin to tinge with
gold the horizon of the best era the
world has ever seen, and earnestly trust
they will employ their large powers to
the end of bringing degenerate sex up
TO an accurate footing with an advanced
moral chalk-line.

THE MANIA FOR OFFICE.

Among certain class of people the
desire to hold office seems to become
stronger and stronger every year. The
Washington correspondents announce
that there are three hundred applicants
for every position In the gift of the ad-
ministration and that the president and
Mr.. Blaine are getting prematurely old
under the pressure of the innumerable
host who have fiocked to the capital and
hang around the white house and the
state department from morning until
night. A convention of colored men
has just been held in Maryland for the
purpose of demanding their share of the
patronage, or, as they call it, equal
rights" 1t seems to be the accepted
doctrine now among our black breth-
rem that until their names are
placed on the government payroll
"equal rights" is a mockery and a
delusion. This craze for office is IN
comprehensive. The government scr
vice is VIGOROUSLY underpaid. Even
the great prizes generally entail expens.
es far beyond the pecuniary emoluments
they bring with them, and the compen-
sation they confer in the way Of social
distinction is hardly worth taking into
consideration. Business and even tie
overcrowdcd professions hold out far
more Inducements to man OF pluck and
hrains than government employment
with its brief and uncertain tenure. A
government farm, which can be had fol
the asking, is infinitely better than one

to bestow, and good sheep rancho il

Soldiers National Cemeteries and
Decoration Day are of classic origin.
It is interesting to trace the establish
ment of both up TO their sources, as de-
tailed first in Plutarch; but it may be
stated here briefly, and the reader is re-
ferred to Plutarch for details. We have
eighty-seven national cemeteries, where
in are buried the 100000 Union soldiers
who persisted in battle in defense of the
constitution and the Union. They are
beautifully laid out, fenced and guarded
with care at the expense of the general
government. The idea is derived from
the Greeks, who first established the
beautiful, and grateful custom after the
battles of Platea and Marathon. Those
memorable fields were dedicated as Ma
tional cemeteries, and there every
year, in pursuance of an order of the
Athenian senate, all Greece assembled
for the purpose of decorating the graves
of their heroes. Hence, therefore, is also
derived our custom of decorating the
soldiers graves. 1t is purely classic
ceremony

ALPINE AVALANCHEs.

The warm weather which has lately
prevailed in Southern Europe, after the
immense quantities of snow which had
fallen, naturally led to several avalanch-
es in the Alps. On February 18th ter
rible one descended from the slopes of
Mount Pourri, and covered with a mass
of snow, thirty feet deep, the village of
Brevieres, in the TignIe commune
Thirty-two persons were buried under
the snow, and no less than 800 peasants
from the neighborhood were engaged in
sinking pits 10 reach the buried houses.
OF the buried, twenty-five were found
alive, four were dead, and three are not
yet discovered. Two days later, another
avalanche descended from the same
mountain, and covered space 10000
metres wide with a mass of snow fifteen
or twenty metres deep. The pressure OF
air displaced by the avalanche was SO
great that all the windows of the village
were broken within a few seconds. The
quantity of snow fallen during the pre-
vious days was so great that all com
munication was broken up between
Brevieries Villages and the bottom Of
the valley; peasant from Tignes took
thirteen hours to reach the next town
Bourg- Saint Maurice, travelling in the
snow more than one metre deep.
