Cleverness fin Girls.

should say, observes a writer in All he Year Round, that to young girls gen. erally-to clever young girls certainly cleverness seems to be an unmixed ad- vantage. How delightful to a clever girl of 15 or 16, who then perhaps enters upon regular school work for the first time-how delightful it is for her to find herself at the gates of a new world of thought, to feel the thrill of proud exultation which runs through her as she gazes at it, and exclaims with pardonable enthusiasm, I can, at least, be monarch of all 1 surveyr How pleasant to see the qualification with which her masters gradually discover that one eager mind is drinking in all they say, and what trouble they will take to answer and even to anticipate her difficulties! How pleasant, again albeit somewhat dangerous--to receive the respect and admiration which her schoolfellows will lavish upon her, so long, at least, as she is sweet-tempered as well as clever-to respond to the many demands made upon her for "Just one thought, dear, to put into my essay on 'Procrastination' I've put in all the dictionary says, but that only fills up half my paper!"-to hear the in- variable, 70, Ida will tell you that-she knows everything!" And then at the prize giving, how stimulating is the sense, not only that she is the observed of all observers, but that she is receiving the reward of work we'll and earnestly done as she bears away prize after prize only tempered by the regretful wish that poor Melissa, who is so sweet, but any thing rather than clever-and other kindred spirits-could have had some thing more to rejoice in than the suc- cess of their friend!

HON. E. ". ROBERTSON.

In nominating this gentleman
for Congress. the Democrats of the
Sixth District of Louisiana have
done wise thing. They could not
con6de their interests in safer
hands. Mr.. Robertson has served
several terms. but was not a men,
Der of the 4Sth or 49th Congress.
He was especially conspicuous when
a member for his able and jealous
advocacy OF the improvement of
the Mississippi river. If We re-
member right. lie introduced n bill
to provide for the organization of
River Commission. We are not
mistaken in saying that his advo-
cacy of the policy of organizing n
Cor. mission of skilled engineers
was bold and effective. No mem
Der OF his day displayed more zeal
and superior ability in the discus
sion Of the subject in the House. or
what was better. more effective
work in committee. Mississippi
las a common interest with Louis
lana in the improvement of the
great river. But it dwalfs the que g.
ton to trent it as local matter.
What improves the navigation of
the Mississippi river, tends to the
protection OF the vast public against
the encroachms nts OF the powerful
moneyed corporations which are
combining among themselves to
levy contributions upon, and to
control, the commerce and industry
of the country. incidentally. the
improvement OF the navigation of
the stream will protect from the
devastating foods the rich allnvial
lands of the valley. aud thus con-
tribute UNNECESSARILY to the wealth
and prosperity of the common
country.
With Robertson and Blanchard
from Louisiana. and Catchings Of
Mississippi. the Mississippi River
improvement question will not suf-
for for the want of able and skillful
championship. = Jackson Miss.

Every little while, writes a cor

Every little while. whites cor
respondent. we read in the papers
OF some one who has stuck \ rusty
nail in his foot, or knee. or hand,
or some other portion OF his per-
son. aud that lockjaw has resulted
thereirom, from which the patient
died. If every person in tue world
was aware of a perfec. remedy for
all such wounds. ana would apply
it. then all such reports must cease.
But although we can give the rem
edy. we cannot enforce its applica-
ton. Some will not employ it be-
cause they think it too simple, 9TH
ers will have no faith in it when
they read it, while others often
think such wounds OF small &C.
count. and not worth fussing over,
until it is too late to do my good.
Yet all such wounds can be healed
without the fatal consequences
which follow them. The remedy is
simple, almost always on hand, aud
can be applied by any one; and
what is better, it is infallible. 1t
rs simply to smoke tue wound. or
any bruise or wound that is in
famed, with burning wool or WOOL
ell cloth; twenty minutes in the
smoke of wool will take the pain
ont OF the worst wound, and. re-
peated once or twice, it will allay
the worst case of inflammation
arising from wound we ever saw.
People may snser at the "old mans
remedy" Us much as they please,
but when they are afflicted, just let
them try it; it has saved many lives
aud luuch pain, aud is worthy OF
being printed in letters Of gold and

THE SUNDAY LAW.

An association has been formed
in New Orleans to resist the Sun
day Law enacted by the last Legis-
Iature. 10y appeal 10 the courts, to
determine its consSitutiunality.
The association is composed of all
persons who nny join it aud who
are affected by the law.
There Inns been grave misun-
derst.nding Of the provisions Of this
law, that it only related TO and en-
forced the closing of saloons and
drinking shops. where alcoholic
liquors are sold. The law has a
much lnrssr scope.
1t closes shops and stores and
forbids all sales Of many commo,ll-
ties. where alcoholic liquors are not
sold, aud the sale Of which cannot
in any way disturb the peace and
order Of society. Indeed. it stops
all trade and secular employment
on Sunday. with few exceptions.
1t is questioned whether such a
law is constitutional. The decision
Of our Supreme Court. in 3G ar
uunl. would appear to limit the
authority of tine Legislature to the
closing Of establishments like sa-
looms. over which the police power
gives jurisdiction because alcoholic
liquors ars sold there. The thou
sand other things sold in the city
could never he brought within the
widest range Of this jurisdiction.
