:Ihe Stree Dress.


In the litter gloom OF winters morn
babe was born.
The snow piled nigh against wall and door,
On the mighty oak bOughs the frost lay hoar
But warmth and light shrined the happy face,
SO softly plllowod mid down and lace.
The bells clashed out from the Keeling spirc,
The night was Redeemed by many a frc
The cottage smiled for the JOY at the hall,
As the poor man answered the rich mans call,
AMI his lot for day was less forlOrn,
Because u little child was born.
In the bitter gloom OF winters morn
A babe was born.
The snow piled high in the narrow street.
Troddcn and stained by hurrying feet;
on the hearth the embers lay cold and dead, -..
And the woman who crouchcd on the damp straw
bed
Mntercd curse as the drunken sport
Sselled up to her lair from the crowded court,
ot without and squalor within,
To welcome wait TO world OF sin.
Aud pitilul life was the more forlorn
Because u little child was born.
In a smiling home amid sun and flowers,
Calm, ami beauty, and culture, and wealth,
To give power to life and grace to health;
Gentle influence, thought, and care,
To train the darling of love and prayer
The stately heirlooms OF place and blood,
To crown the flower Of motherhood,
With chldhood's pearly innocence kept
On the folded leaves where the sunshine slept.
80 sweeily and richly foamed the cup
Life held, where the happy girl grew up.
Where '.home" was vague and empty word,
A child grew up;
Where oath and blow were the only law,
AMI ugly misery all she saw
Where want and sin drew hand in hand,
Round the haunts that disgrace our Christian lanu
A lovelcss, hopeless, joyless life.
OF crime, and wrctchedness, struggle and strife
Never glimpse of the sweet Spring skies,
To soften the flash in the wild young eyes,
No drop Of peace in The poisoned cup
Life held, where the reckless girl grew up.
On Summer eve as the slow sun set.
A woman died.
A. the close Of a long and tranquil life,
HDnored and guarded, mother and wife,
win gentle ha4ds, whose Work was done,
Aud gentle head whose crown was won,
WIN chillren's children Mt her knee.
And friends who watched her reveren ly
Knowing her memory would remain,
Treasured 10y grief that scarce was pain,
Win her hearts dearest at her side,
Blessing and blessed, the woman died.
On summers eve as the slow sun SET
A woman died.
She had fought the failing light so long!
Bot time was cruel. and hard, and strong.
Without farm. without prayer
with none to aid and none to care;
with not q trace upon the page,
From desperate youth TO loaihsome age,
But sin and sorrow. wrong and chance,
And bitter blank of ignorance;
With not hand to help or save,
with not a hope beyond the grave,
Tossed In the / lack streams rushing tide,
UnmUulned. unmis,ed, the woman died.
And we are all akin runs the kindly creed
All the ddle OF life is hard 10 read
An the Year Round.

OF A CELEBRATED CASE.

Much interest continues to be manifested in the
discussion Of the nefficiency Of the laws Of this
State to check great evils growing from the easy
divorcement of persons. Among theletters received
last week by the Editor Of TIE TRIBUNE bearing
on the subject was from the counsel of the re-
spondents in one of the celebrated cases that drew
attention to the laxty of the law in this State Mr.
Busted relates what has been done since the de-
cison of the Court of Appeals in Van VOORHEES, vs.
BrintnaI to help society out of the difficulty into
which that adjudication placed it, The State Sen
ate referred resolution adopted by the Bar Asso-
citation looking TO convention of States TO discuss
the subject of uniformity in laws to the Judiciary
Committee, and there the subject rested.

REMEDY TO BEGIN AT HOME.

The work needed ia to make the causes for
divorce fewer and the proceedings careful and de-
lberate. The concurrence OF considerable number OF
States uniform causes for divorce could he had, by in
tegcnt action In turn that would mcte other States To
like action The work would be slow, but sure Indeed
is probable that the reforms could better begin down
among the people than anywhere else. Proper care
taken In forming married relations makes any divorce
laws n matter OF Indifference Ia happily united couples
Most of the evils In InatTuOny come from unions which
should have been formed The fault Is primarily In
the home. Parents do not guard their children nom
