HE DUTY OF A WOMAN TO BE A LADY.
-WlIduess is Il thing which girls cannot
afford Deicacy is thing which cannot
be lost and found. No art can restore to
the grape Its bloom. Familiarity without
love, without confidence, without regard,
is destructive to all that makes woman
ennobling.
"The world is wide. these things are small;
They may be nothing. but they are ALL"
NothingP 1t is the first duty of woman
to be a lady. Good breeding is good
morality. Awkwardness may be inerad-
icable. Bashfulness is constitutional.
Ignorance of etiquette is the result of Cir
cumstances. All can be condoled and do
not Danish man or woman from the amen
tiles of their kind. But self-possessed,
unshrinking aud aggressive coarseness Of
demeanor may be reckoned as a state
prison offence. and certainly merits that
mild form of restraint called imprison-
ment ror life. 1t is shame for women to
be lectured on their manners. 1t is a
bitter shame that they need 1t. Women
are the umpires of society. 1t is they to
whom all mooted points should be referred.
To be a lady is more than to be prince.
A lady is always, in her right, inalienably
worthy of res pect. To lady prince and
peasant alike bow. Do not be restrained.
DO not have impulses that need restraint.
Do not wish to dance with the prince
uusought; feel differently. Be such that
YOU can confer honor. Carry yourself 80
| ioftiIy that men shall look up to you for
reward, not at you in robuke. The natu.
raj sentiment Of man toward women Is
reverence. He loses a large means of
grace when he is obliged to account her
q being to be trained into propriety. A
mans ideal is not wounded when woman
fails in worldly wisdom; but If In grace,
! in tact. IN sentiment, in delicacy, In kind
ness, b he be found wanting, he receives

A STORY OF a Watch.
now TINEFIECE WAS RECOVERED AFTER
LAPSE OF TWENTY YEARS

now TINEFIECE WAS RECOVERED AFTER
LArsE OF TWENTY YEARS.
Twenty one years ago a gentleman
now occupying a prominent place in
Masonic circles in this city and residing
in an interior county OF the State, sent
an order 10 London for the manufacture
of a fine gold watch. During the follow.
ing year the watch, which cost 800,
was received, and was carried by its own.
er for the next nine or ten years. Ia
1861 a friend started for this city on a
visit, bringing the watch with him, since
which time nothing has been heard of
him, the supposition being that he was
murdered and plundeTed by some OF the
hard characters that were so prevalent
here at the time. The missing man had
abundant means and left behind him
piece Of mining property worth S30,.
600 or $4,000. The owner Of the watch
mouTned the loss Of his friend and re.
gretted the missing timepiece and after
some years removed TO this city, where
in time the above incident became TO
memory dream. A few days ago he
vas converting with a friend in Jew.
elry store, when n stranger stopped
alongside of him, laid watch on the
counter and asked the proprietor TO
purchase IL and 10 the astonishment OF
the whilom interior resident he recog.
nissd at one glance the timepiec he had
lost tweniy-one years before.
Subsequent investigation revealed that
along about 1862 q gentleman OF this
city had purchased the watch Of man,
uosaihiv tha ona vvho had fuurtlarad fha
visitor from the interior, for 1859, and
had carried it 70 the day Of bis death,
which occurredin Tucson, Arizona, about

A New Scheme for the Election oI
President and Wee President.

WASHINGTON, May tative
Updegraff (Ia.), from the Select Com
mittee on Law respecting the election
of President and Vice President, made
a favorable report to the House to-day
upon the bill Ito carry into effect the
provisions Of the Constitution respect
ing the election of President and Vice
President Of the United States The
first eight sections of the bill provide a
scheme for a count by the two Houses
of Congress. Section 9 provides that, rot
withstanding this Congressional count,
the title to the office of President or
Vice President may be tried and de
termiued by an action in the nature OF
quo warranto. II is provided that the
proceedings in the case shall have pre-.
cedence over all other business, and
wherever it was thought practicable to
limit the time it has been done. Ii Is
claimed that any contest can he settled
before the 4th Of March. The first
eight sections are substantially the
same as the Senate bill. But it is
claimed that in anv scheme for Con
gressional count, where each House has
one vote and no umpire, there are only
three courses 10 pursue-hrst, that no
vote shall be counted without concur.
renee second, that no vote shall be
rejected without concurrence third, to
define class Of cases in one OF which
concurrence shall be necessary to reject,
and another in which concurrence shall
be necessary to count.
Ii is claimed that the third PROPOSE.
ton is impraciicable and impossible ;
that no such definition can be made
under which the preferred class cannot,
by the political party interestedSn do
ing so, be changed beforehand into a
case of the other class, wherin a single
House may throw out a State. This is
illustrated by reference to the transac.
tions Of the past. Ii il claimed that
Congress might ga well provide either
that all votes shall he counted or that
none shall be counted. II either House
rejects. Il is claimed that there u in a
Presidential election the same field Of
controversy and judicial inquiry rs in
an ordinary popular election, and just
as much or more necessity for q judicial
determination, by which alone such dis
putes can be properly settled; that
Congress is denied such functions hy
the Constitution, and that q reference
to the courts in this matter, as IN all
disputes involving the construction and
Interpretation OF law, is the only consti.
tutional method Of disposing OF oil con.
ceiYable disputes.
