AGREEABLE MEALs.-It is impossible
to estimate properly the Immense influence
which is cxcrted upon household by the
atmosphere ofthe family table. Ifit is true
that one does not come out Of a room the
same person he went in, the mind ever after
retaining the impress of what affected it
there, and what great results must be
achieved from the meeting in the din.

there. A neat, we'll covered table is in itself
a lesson TO the children.

most invariably has better manners when

the inviting table, where there should always
be something attractive, however simple the
meal may be, most children will come pre-.

is matter of great importance. to lay aside as
far as possible all thoughts of hard work

over our work and cxhaustiog ourselves by
goingall over it in our miris is one to be
studiously avoided There is nothing takes
from ones energy more than this, and 1t is
frequent cause Of insanity.
Everybody knows that food dgests better
when in agreeable company. 1t was some
thing more than pleasantly which made
friend remark that he could not have his
wife and child pass the summer vacation
away from him, asit gave him the dyspcp-
sia. The poor child who comes to @riefat
table, and is sent away f.om it with his
dinuer half eaten, and who suffers the
whole afternoon With an uudigested
lump of food in lis stomach, is to
be piried, aud it is wise plan to explain

Of life. Good behavior aud checrfllness

The happy laughter which distributes ucr-
vnus force, and calls the blood from the
brain, allowing the stomach to getit share,
should be heard more frequently at our
tables. No one should feel at liberty to
say one word that is not kind and thought
full, any more than he would go without
sufficient quantity of food. These facts
need mo-: C careful consideration than they

TIE ORIGINAL HOME OF TIE IIoRsE.-
There is no doubt that the orisiul home
ofthc horse is not Europe but Ceutra; Asia;
for since the horse in its natural state de-
pends upon grass for its nourishucnt and
fectnrss for its weapon, it could MT in the
beginning have thrivcn aud multiplied il the
thick forest grown territory of Europe -
Much rather should its place ofpropaga-
ton be sought in those stcppcs where it
still! roams about in wild stat,. Here
too, arose the first nations of rider of which
We have historic knowledyc-tM Mongo-
lians and the Turks-whosc existence even
at this day is, as it were, combined with
that of the horse. From these regions the
horse spread in all directions, especially
into the steppes OF Southern and Sou ,hcast
ern Russia aud into Thrace, until it finally
found entrance into the other parts of Eu-
rope, but not until after tho Immigration of
the people. This assumption is, at least,
strongly favored by the fact that the farther
district Of Europe is from those Isiatc
steppns, e., from the original home Of the
horse. the later does the tanned horse seem
to have made it's historic appearance in it.
The supposition is further coufrm.d by
the fact that horse raising amLng almost
every tribe appears rs an art derived from
neighbOring tribes in the cast or northeast
Even il Homer the OK appears excluivcly
rs the draught animal 10 land operations at
home and in the field. while the horse was
used for purposes Of war only. Its employ.
mcnt in military operations was dstcru'ncd
by swiftncss alone. That the value o the
horse must originally have depended on
its feetness can easily be inferred from the
name which is repeated in all the branches
of the Indo European language, and sicni-
fies "hasten'ng," quick" The same fact is
excmplifed by the description of the oldest
poets, who, next to its courage, speak most
Of its swif;ncss.

fected."
This dispatch was shown to the Secretary
of the Treasury, who Immediately tele-
graphed to Governor Roberts, of Texas, as
follows: "Do you desire the action of the
government in assisting to suppress the
yellow fever at Brownsville ?" To which
Governor Roberts replied by telegraph as

vile we will need assistance. l will let you

The NATIONAL CAPITAL.
Argument Opened In the star Route
Trials-The Epidemic Fund-The
President o Take . Sea Voyage.

WAsHINeToN, August 9.-Mr. Ker opened
the argument for the prosecution in the star
route cases to-day, and continued speaking
until court adjourned. None Of the defend
ants were present. Mr.. Ker began by calling
attention to the great amount Of documen.
tary and other evidence introduced in these
cases, and said many of the papers pre-
sented might seem to amount to little. but
all these separate and. apparently insignif-
cant details when put together made out
scheme Of unprecedented ysllsinv
on the part of the defendants. 1t had been
said that no twelve men of ordinary intelli-
gence could put these details together so as
to see their inter-dependence, but he did
not believe 1t. He thought this iurV had a
very clear idea OF the case It was a case
OF national importance, and one which was
everywhere regarded with the deepest in
terest. 1t would be a grand vfndicatiop of
our institutions ii sub-Cabinet officer and
an ex-United States Senator could be con-
vtcted Ike other criminals, and he thought
they could. His exposition of the case
would he confined to the mar
rowest limits, 10 mere statements
OF facts, dates and other particulars. Mr..
her tnen reviewed briefly the personal
history OF each OF the defendants, and toak
up In order for consideration or comment
each OF the routes set out In the Indictment.
Before he had concluded his argument the
court adjourned.
Mr.. Ker will be followed by Judge
Carpenter and JEFF Chandler for the defense.
Mr.; Bliss, of counsel for the prosecution,
will then speak, and will be followed in
turn bV Messrs. Gotten, Hind and Henkle
for the defendants. Attorney General
Brewster or Mr.. Merrick will next address
the jury, and will be replied to by Messrs.
McSweeney, Wilson and Ingersoll. Mr..
Merrick or the Attorney General will then
close the argument.
The question whether the National Board
OF Health or marine hospital service shall
have charge Of the work to be done by the
government for the suppression of yellow
fever In Texas has been referred bv the
President to Secretary Folger for decision.
The President has at his disposal to meet
such emergency as this the sum OF $1OO, 900.
The z esident will leave here to morrow
night or Friday morning fer New York city
on the United States steamer Dispatch.

AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION.
The Address OF Gen. A. r.. Lawson.

SARATOGA, August 9.-The address of
Gen. A. r. Lawton before the American
Bar Association to-day was a perfect sue
cess, and was listened to with rapt atten-
tion by a large and discriminating audience.
The impression produced was so favorable
that he will doubtless be elected President
of the association.
The following is a synopsis of General
Lawton's remarks: He began bv quoting
the closing sentence of Clarkson N Potter's
address last year, when, after his eulogy on
Chief Justice Taney, he spoke Of the high
hOnors due to those who have been permit
ted to adOrn the administration of law, and
said: "We owe it to our high calling, to the
cause Of good government and good living,
to see justice done to their services, to
cherish their names and to keep their mem
ories green" General Lawton spoke OF
the great places given in history
to heroes in certain fields, while LAWYERS
who occupied high judicial positions are
scarcely mentioned, when they have inter
preted the law from the bench for years.
and their opinions are recognized as su-
thorities all over the country. He made q
brief allusion to Chief Justice Gibson, of
Pennsylvania, who presided for twenty
years over the highest court of that
State; TO Theophilus Parsons, for five years
Chief Justice Of Massachusetts, who gave
such high character to the courts there, and
to jeremiah Mason, of New Hampshire, Of
whom Daniel Webster said ''No matter
how deep dug a case, Jerry Mason went
deeper" And yet these men, holding high
Judicial positions, were scarcely known to
students of general history. The speaker
then took up James Lewis Pettigrew, OF
South Carolina, and Hugh 8. Legare as
subjects of his address. He related how
Mr.. Pettigrew started from a poor family,
was educated to the law and rose to be the
successor Of Mr.. Hayne as Attorney General
of South Carolina, where he was recognized
as the peer Of the highest members of the
bar Of his own State and of Georgia. Hugh
s. Legare, he said, did not live as long as
Pettigrew, but was equally as distinguished
in his profession and entitled to equal honor.
On motion of Mr.. Willis, of New York,
the thanks of the association were given
General LawtOn for his address.
