THE DECLINE OF DANCING.-There
has never been known a London season
with so few dances. At homes, with or
without music, receptions with drawing
room entertainments have been plentiful
enough, but the old-fashioned ball seems
to be thing of the past. No doubt one
But it is not the only one A bad and sell

society of not introducing. 1t is very
simple way out of what is sometimes a
troublesome social embarrassment; where
introducing is the rule, the hosts have a
fatiguing night unless the party is very
small and the guests all know each other.
1t is very much easier to do nothing at all,
and let the guests, rs Mrs. Proudie says,
"group themselves" But young ladies
who want to waltz are not content merely
to group themselves. They prefer being
coupled to being grouped, and so another
fashion crept in to assist the selfish or neg
ligent or gauche party-giyers. This was
for girls to bring their own partners with
them. 1t succeeded for a time, but not
entirely. Many old-fashioned persons pre-
ferred to ask their own guests. They had
kind of feeling that their rooms were
not assembly and that they ought
to know the names, or at least the appear
ance, of the guests who came to their
house The crush accordingly superseded
the ball. Society has become stupid, and
unless hostesses will break through bad
habit and attend to their duties, we shall
soon see dancing, except at public balls,
cease to keep its place among English hos

CANALS VS.. RAILRoADs-A general but
erroneous notion that the day of canals has
passed, that they have been superseded by
railroads, is vigorously combated by Ho-
ratio Seymour, Jr, in pamphlet called
the Canal Age" He shows that rail-
ways never have carried freight as cheaply
as canals, and probably never can; that
the Erie canal, far from being tax, is a
profitable investment for the State; that
Germany, Austria, Russia, England and
other countries are rapidly extending their
canal systems; and that in the extent of
our water routes this country is relatively
far behind Europe Thus, France is en-
gagged ON four waterways, for which $780,,
100000 have been appropriated and which
will cost much more Germany and Rus
STA are constructing canal from the Baltic
to the North sea; England is making ca
mails from London to Liverpool and Bris-
toll, and from Manchester to Liverpool /;
while Canada is spending 100000 to
improve the Welland canal.

OR YOUNG FOLKS.


There was never a golden sunbeam
That fell On a desolate place,
But LEFT some trace OF its presence
That time could never efface;
Nor a sound OF ineffable sweetness
That ravished the listening ear.
That slumbered in silence forgotten
For many and many year.
But word or tone might awaken
Its magical power anew,
Long after the sweet-voieed singer
Had faded from earthly view;
Not a heart that was ever so weary.
Or tainted with sin and despair,
But word of tender compassion
Might find an abiding-piace there.
Yet countless thousands are yearning
For sympathy, kindness, and love,
And souls are cropping in darkness
Without one CLEAN from above
There was never a sunbeam wasted.
Nor song that was sung in vain.
And souls that seem lost in the shadows
a Sayior's love may reclaim.
Then scatter seeds of kindness,
Though your deeds may never be known
The harvest will ripen in glory,
II the seeds be faithfully sOWn:
And life will close with q blessing.
And fade into endless day,
Like the golden hues of the sunbeam
That fade in the twilight gray

mi,estones on the Road to Health.

The recovery OF digestion, and the re-
sumption of activity by the liver. bowels
and kidneys, are milestones which mark
our progress ON the road to health. They
speedily become perceptible when Hostel
ters Stomach Bitters is used by the invalid
Nothing so surely and expeditiously con-
sumes the distance TO the desired goal. As
no bodily function can suffer interruption
without impairing the general health Of the
system, so the system can never acquire
perfect yigor, health's synonym, until that
function be actively resumed Take, for
instance, digestion, suspension of which
is invariably rectifed by the Bitters. If the
organs upon which it deyolyes grow weak,
biliousness, constipation, headache, poverty
of the blood and a hundred other symp-
toms superyene, which indicate unmistak-
ably the baneful general influence Of dys-
pepsia. The disappearance of all these
symptoms, through the use of the Bitters,
shows with what thoroughness it removes
their cause.

LOVES SEASONS.

Springtime love is like the flowers,
Born to blossom and TO die,
Smiling through few sweet hours;
All, tell me why.
Summers love is like the showers,
Burst with lightning from the sky;
Wasted soon its passion S powers:
All. tell me why.
AutrImn's love is like the gold
That on the forest leaves shall lie;
Quickly fled with speed untold:
All, tell me why.
Winters love is like the cold
And chilling winds that swiftly fly,
Vanishing DER wood and void:
All, tell me why,
Yet summer autumn, winter, spring
Are full of love that shall not die;
For love is of them all the king:
And who cares why?

We believe it was generally con
ceded by Storoy's friends that Konc
would beat him in this precinct, but
as it turned out Storey was ahead
twenty-ono votes. This would not seem
to support the assertion made by
some that tho support of tho FREE
Press was fatal to Storey. On the
contrary, from the above facts, it is
fair to presume that had the FREE
PRESS been as well circulated else
where in the county as it is here,
Storey would have been elected. For
orr own part at least, we do not
doubt but such would have been the
result.
