Married People would be happier.

If expenses were proportioned to receipts.
If home troubles were never told to a
neighbor.
If they tried to be as agreeable as in court
ship days.
If each would try to be support and
comfort to the other.
If each would remember the other was
human being, not an angel.
If each was as kind and good to the other
as when they were lovers.
If fuel and provisions we're laid up during
the hightide of summer work.
If both parties remembered that they
married for worse as well as for better.
If men were as thoughtful for their wives
as they were for their sweethearts.
. If there were fewer silk and velvet street
costumes, and more plain tidy house dresses.
If there were. fewer please darlings in
public and more common manners in pri-
vate.
If men would remember that a woman
cannot be always smiling who has to cook
the dinner, answer the bell half a dozen
times, and get rid of neighbor who has
dropped in, tend a sick baby, tie up the cut
finger of six-year older on skates and get
an eight-year- ready for school. A
woman with all of this to contend with may
claim it as privilege to look and feel lit
tie tired sometimes, and a word ofsympathy
would not be too much to expect from the
man who, during the honeymoon, would not
let her carry as much as . sunshade,

Among all these advantages possessed by
the North, the first, the mair,' and decisive
lone was the navy. Giving her all but this
and they would have been Intellectual to
prevent the establishment of the Confeder-
acy. That arm of her strength was at the
beginning of the war in an efficient state,
| and it was rapidly augmented and improv-
ed. By it, the South being almost without
| naval force, the North was enabled to
sweep and blockade her coasts everywhere,
and SO, aside from the direct distress inhict-
ed, to prevent foreign recognition; to cap
| ture one after another of her seaports; ito sever
and cut up her country in every direction
through its great rivers; to gain Judgments
| at many points within her territory, from
which numerous destructive raids were sent
out in all directions; to transport troops and
supplies to points where their passage by
land would have been difficult or impossi-
Bile; and, finally, to cover protect, and save,
| as by the navy was so often done, the de-
feated and otherwise totally destroyed arm
les of the North in the field.
I But for the navy, Grants army was lost
Lat Shiloh; and but for it, on the Peninsula,
in the second year Of the war, Mcclellan S
army, not withstanding his mastery retreat
| from his defeats before Richmond, was lost

| federacy established.
After glorious four years struggle
against such odds as have been depicted,
duilng which independence was often almost
secured. when successive !evies OF armies
amounting IN all to nearly three millions OF
men had peen hurled against her, the South,

annals OF her splenoid armies; while the
fortltude and patience OF her people, and
particularly OF her noble women, under al
most incredible trials and sufferlngs, have
never been surpassed in the history OF the
world.
Such exalted character and achievement
were not all in vain. Though the Confed-
eracy fell as an actual physical power, she
lives, illustrated by them, eternally in her

The time has come when l am at liberty
to make public one of the strangest stories
ever given to the world-a story SO strange
and SO romantic that if it were not abso-

ly to the verge Of impossibility. Its most
minute details have been known to me for
more than four years, but for several rea-
sons it has not been permitted me until

JULY NOTES.
Short wraps of plain velvet are more and
more worn and can be added to by inde-
pendent ornaments of jet or colored beads
with finish of beaded lace while cloth wraps,
either plain on figured are also popular
Some elegant long cloaks are made of fine
cashmere with the inevitable color silk lin
ing tied at the waist with ribbon to match
and allowed to hang open on warm days or
on cool ones, fastened by metal buttons. A
glove must be long or it is nothing. Reach
ing at least some way up the arm and in
color, the precedence of tan is like that Of
black in hosiery. Gray is good color,
putty or bronze for kid or silk. But mitts
are black or follow dress goods and ribbons.
Full neck dressing meets with little favor
yet, while standing linen collars are exceed
ingly popular, ruchings are equally so.-
Beaded collars and plastrons are the accept
ed accessories where more is wished for, but
an exception is made regarding the chemi-
sette which is in high favor, made of lace in
one thickness or closely pressed plaits OF
null or crepe lisse.

Upon which my faint spirit could lean.
