A Nocturnal Ramble and what anne os 1t

Some genius-we suspect him to belong 10 the iovial order of humanity-has said "The day to drone and dream, the night to learn and ramble." We do not propose to dispute this worthy's view of the m alter, but present herewith the experience of Phila- delphia journalist, MT. William H Gun nington, TYP North Twentieth street, one of whose nocturnal rambles he thus refers to, beginning his narration rather peculiarly, however: am not a rheumatic, and have been troubled very little with bodily pains. Last Tuesday morning experienced very annoying stiffness of the neck, which grew worse as the day wore on. Toward evening it became very severe, and I could scarcely turn my head in any direction. Arriving home at tea time it was with difficulty that l could eat my meal. My wife wanted to rub my neck with St. Jacobs Oil, but l re- fused, saying thought the affiiction would soon pasa away. Tea over, against the remonstrances of my family, left home to ramble toward the new Chestnut Street Opera House, about two and a half miles from my residence. started in the midst of a heavy snow storm, and remained at the theater until the close of the performance
 although could feel my neck getting worse and becoming very painful. Leaving the play the trouble came to reach home. The storm continued; the car in which was became blocked in nearly every square, a cold current of air swept through the car, and did not reach my home until toward A. M., by which time my neck had become absolutely rigid. Then consented to the use of St. Jacobs Oil, which ny wife ap, piled two or three times before arose. l continued its use that day and by evening was free from pain, and the next morning amused myself by twisting my neck in any direction that suited me, and not a vestige of stiffness rem aimed "-Boston Herald.

For the Star
Stephens City Debating Society.

Mr.. Editor II read with much
satisfaction your appeal to the citizens
of our town to organize Debating
Society in our community, as means
of mental Improvement and profitable
and agreeable instruction, especially
among the young men, and of interest
to all our people, old and young, male
and female.
We have abundant material for get
ting up and sustaining such an enter
prise, and it is only necessary to set
the ball in motion to make the object
an assured success. How much better
for the morals and manners of our
young men, and for their intellectual
improvement and future success in
life, to see those who are so soon to
take the places of their elders in the
race of life, assembling themselves to-
gether, at least once week during
the coming long nights of winter, in a
society thus formed for mutual instruc-
ton, and increasing their stock of
knowledge and intelligence, and learn
ing by. practice the art of speaking
we'll and discussing interesting and
useful questions previously selected
for debate, and for which they have
prepared themselves by reading and
study, than to see them Gas now too
often) loafng in the stores and at the
street corners, idling their time away
in rude jests, and noisy, rough practi-
cal Jokes, thus growing up in idleness
and ignorance. Let them Join and at
tend regularly, and take an earnest
interest in the higher pleasures and
aims of a good Debating Society, and
they will soon see ana feel the supe-
rior value and advantages Of mental
and moral cultivation over the merely
physical and animal indulgences of
our lower nature.
Cant you follow up your favorable
start in the right direction by calling
a town meeting Of the citizens, both
old and young, to organize such So
ciety without delay. | am sure, from
the expressions of public opion I have
heard, it will command the approba-

ONE OF THE PEOPLE.
