INSUFFICIENT APPROPRIATIONS

THE ATToRNEY-GENERAL CALLS THE
ATTENTION OF THE SENATE TO 4 FEW
FACTS.
WASHINGTON, June yi.-Tbe Attorney
General sent the Senate to-day n COM
munication in which he calls attention
to the failure of the House to
provide, i'm the general deficiency bill,
for dcficicnces under various bureaus of
the Department of Justice. Among these
are n deficiency of $4,000 for fees, etc, in
the Marshal's office, for which the House
only appropriated $4,000, and II deiici-
cncy Of 5000 for final payment of the
special attorney employed in the prose-
cution of Guiteau. Referring
To the amount required for final
payment of attorneys in the Guitcau
case, the attorney said; at mp
pears to me that failure
10 provide for their payment for services
in that case would be national re-
proach." He also called attention TO Il
proviso in the House bill, limit
ing the use of money therein
applied to payment of district attorneys
and their regular assistants and cx-
Guiding payment of speci. counsel
heretofore employed. He say he thinks
this proviso is unjust to special counsel,
who have served the Government in
pooI fnitb.

WOmeRlLn the Church.

NJ very spicy parison of views
has lately been made in The 64qate-
rsos', of Chicago, between Drs. Her
rick job nson end Charles L. Themp-
son, both well known in this city
as talented Presbyterian pastors.
We say comparison Of views for
it, can hardly be called controversy,
they are sor,nearly agreed. RAnd
the editor has dipped his pen, into
the question also, he and Dr.
Thompson having injected a Aarge
amount of WI and humor into the
subject. The grave and alarming
question which has SO agitated
these divimes is, whether wenen
should be alac wed, and encouraged
TIC participate in the social meet
ings of the church, and if so, when
and how? Should she be allowed
to take part ,rwhere there are men
enough to run the meeting with
out her assistance; or only where
the men are SO scarce that the
meetings cannot get along without
calling for help? Should che be
encouraged where the good, saint
iy brethren are so much opposed
and prejudieed that they will be-
come rebellious,an desert the ark,
and threaten1to ruin the church ?
Where her pant "is clearly without
devotional profit" should she be
allowed to have hand in the SER
vices, and so on? All this sounds
very strange to Methodists who
have been accustomed to female
participation ia social services all
their lives, and who know so well
that often the very best parts of
such services are conducted by the
good sisters. But the world moves,
and others will come up after a.
while. PITTSBURGH Advocate.

A Touching Story.

Congressman Black burn, of Ken
lucky is quoted as telling this
story: "Four days before l went
to the front with my regimen 1T, I'VE
had little girl baby. She IS 9ow
grown, and you always ee her
with me at any social gatl nerg ng.
Well, in our army, the fuI -ivs:ghs
came very rarely. When We got
into line there was no great cha nee
for a man to get home. 1t was
about three years afterwar, Is that a
few of us were one nigl ut going
down the Mississippi on ariver
steamer. | had been sick, and was
returning to my comm and but

As for money, we did not b ave any ;
and the night was no as l lay

big glass of lemonade, tell you it
looked good to me. ST he saw me
cycling it, stopped a min uteaooked

up to my side. You loo k as if you
wanted something to drink, she
said, and offered nae tn glars. 1t

do, but took it, and handed it
back to her empty. 1t waa nectar

creature, and sentfher away. Soon
after, Just like every child she
came back, leading her mother to
see the poor sodier. ltxas nay

whom i had last see asa baby

the reunion. They W ere with my

The Husbands Opportunity.

1t is doubtful whether the male
head of 3 family often appreciates
the opportunity e'has of diffusing
sunshine at home, or comprehends
how much of gloon he can bring
with him in a troubled face or
moody temper from the office or
the street. The house mother is
within four walls from morning to
dinne--time, With few exceptions,
and tGust bear the worriments of
fretlae children, inefficient servants,
weak nerves and unexpected call
ers. And she must do this day af-
ter dey, with monotonous regular
ity. The husband goes out from
the petty details of home care. He
meets friends; ehe feels the excite
meat of business competition; he
has'the bracing influence OF an out
door walk or ride. If he will come
home cheerful and buoyant, his
presence is like refreshing breeze.
Hefhas it in his power to brigh$e n
the whole household life, and add to
the general Happiness in a way

reap the reward of an approving
conscience, of having at least not
wounded the feelings of an honest,
industrious and praise worthy la
borer for q living. Better send
them off with an encouraging word
to stimulate them in their trying
vocation. The business men are
daily visited by many of these
much (and unjustly} abused agents
whose only faults are energy, per-
suasion and eagerness to effect a
sale. Is this wrong? Is it not
comnnendable? 1t would be I'M
kind, unjust to characterize these
honorable efforts to make bread as
impairment or impudent. 1t is so
easy and so proper to treat with
gentleness and courtesy such seek
ers. The animadversions and
structures on impostors alluded to
IN the interview of course meet

Why Is 1t So !!

Some find work where some find rest
And so the weary work goes on;
sometimes wonder which is best;
The answer comes when life is gone.
some eyes sleep when some eyes walks,
And sothe dreary night-hours go,
some hearts beat where some hearts break
roften wonder why Fis so.
Some hands fold, where other hands
Are lifted bravey in the strife;
And so through ages as through lands
Move on the two extremes of life,
Some feet halt while some feet tread,
In tireless march thorny way;
Some struggle on where some hare fled;
some seek, when Others shun the fray.
some sleep on while others keep
The vigils of the true and brave;
They will not rest till roses creep
Around name above grave.
