Keep the Heart Young.

Despite our proleStS ldtllcT
Time does not ''let the years so
gently fall" that the sparkle of the
eye, the roundness of the cheek,
the CLINT of the hair and the pearl
of the teeth remain unchanged;
but we can keep our hearts young.
We sometimes hear it said of a
man or woman that he or she is
growing old gracefully" 1t is
because such an one has young
heart, feels a loving interest in
young people, has an earnest SYM
pathy for their sorrows albeit
they know how trivial they usual
~ are) and endeavors to contrib
ute to their enjoyment. There
are many old people whom we
could almost imagine never knew
a spring-time Of life or heart, so
fault-fnding are they with the III
iocent follies of the fun-loving
boys and girls Of the community
in which they live, If the married
people would occasionally rub the
rnst from their hearts, plan hol-
day Or An evening entertainment,
enter into it with the zest of youth
even at the cost Of d little extra
labor afterwards, they could do
much towards guiding the taste of
the young in the choice of amuse-
ments. If parents disapproVe the
diversions in which their children
indulge, the remedy hes not in
forbidding them, but in substi-
tuting something more attractive,
and in this manner cultivating
within them taste for enn0bling
pleasures. Any place father or
mother will allow their daughters
or sons to enter, is a place where
theS should feel it their privilege
to go, and if they will make them
selves compan;onable to the young
by shelving a sympathetic, watch
ful interest. instead of a CRITICS
ing, censorious curiosity, they vii
not find themselves unwelcomt
there. Wrinkles and grey hairs
: would not so soon appear if We
=, would arrange our home duties
so that we might oftener indulge
in those innocent amusement
thaj provoke the merry laugh. L

the Catholics of Ireland, who have been

In the counsels we have given from
time to time, and in our recent decree,
we were moved, not only by consld7ra-
tions of what is conformable to truth,
butalso by decree to advance your in
terests. Our affections for you do not
suffer US to allow the cause for which
Ireland is struggling to be weakened by
the Introduction of anything whicn
could fairly be broughtin as reproach
against it. In order to specially man
fest our affection. We send you num-
Der of gifts, which are specially blesse /. /"

The San Francisco Defa1oation.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 1.-From
suits brought here it appears that
Charles f. Merle, president of the Cali
fornia Bone Meal Fertilizer Company
and local agent for Fsirbsnk & Co., of
Chicago, who disappeared last week
had caused an over-issue of $50 shares
of the Fertilizer Company's stock.

for ITO shares of this over issue, for
which he claims to have advanced So, 500
to Nerle. Tillmen has brought suit to
recover his money from the company.
The remainder of the over-issue is not
accounted for. But fifty shares are un-
derstood to be held by President WEIGH,

it appears their liabilities are but 81 40.

The New York Legislature.

ALBANY, N. Y, January 1.-The
State Senate, to-day. was organized by
the election of j. Sloat Fasset, secretary
of the Republican National Committee
to the presidency pro tenn. Fremont
Cole was elected Speaker of the Assem-
bly,. The Inauguration of Governor
Hill was conducted with much circum-
stance and display. While reading his
annual message the Governor created
some sensation when he employed
these words: 1.-THE necessity of some
change in our election laws, whereby
the increasing corruption which has
become incident to our elections may be
prevented, is imperative. Itis believed
the late Presidential election was the
most corrupt of any in the history of
the country, so far as the direct use of
monsy WAS concerned in influencing
electors, and public sentiment is natur-
ally awakened to the desirability of
some relief. The peculiar causes which
induced
THIS IMMENSE CORRUPTION
are a patient anxiety to subserve selfish
and private advantage, rather than the
general interests of the public, and
naturally led to the campaign being
conducted upon alleged business prin-
oiples, whereby it is said that electors
were bought and sold, like goods and
chattels in open market. 1t g claimed
that at least 100000 were spent in the
Twentieth and Twenty-fourth Congress
sional Districts in this State in the
efforts made to elect congressman, and
to secure electors believed to be favor
able to the policy of fostering private
in erests. SO successful have been the
rec ,nt efforts at

that good citizens are led to doubt
whether the free and unbiased senti-
ments of the people may not continue
to be nullifed through corruption,
whenever and as often as it appears
that the interests of the people conflict
with those of interested monopolists,
who, prohigate of their money. are
intent upon resisting all interference
with their selfish and arrogant de-
mands." Governor Hill recommended
that by joint resolution the Legislature
