Female Indifference.

"Nobody," said a man whose long
residence in New York entities him to
Che distinction of being a deep and old
observer, sis so utterly Indifferent to
public opinion as fashionable wo-
man. She really does not care rap
one way or the other what the world
thinks of her as long as she has a
chance to exercise her pet hobbies. l
suppose three of the most tremendous
crusades that have ever been made
against womankind were, in the first
place, the movement against wearing
corsets; then the agitation about the
cruelty of women using the dead bod
les of beautiful song birds as orna-
ments for their hats; and, thirdly, the
cruelty and injustice of big hats in
theatres. Yet today the women go
gloriously forth laced to the limit,
with their hats covered with the
corpses of beautiful birds, and wearing
hats that would shame the mainsail of
a down east schooner. Man is of no
account whatever when he throws
himself against q woman's notion of
fashion. New York Sun.

The noaaoke and Southern.

This is what the editor Of the Frank

the Roanoke and Southern road:
The matter is one of such grave i'm
portance that we forbear to comment
further upon it.
II the people prefer an OK cart and q
ground slide to steam engine and a
train Of cars-whose business is it?
+ If the Hon. Luke Perdue and others
find flaws in special act of the gen.
.eral assembly and the order Of the
court, who can question shis right to
do SOP Not we, certainly.
s II every man in the county wants
the railroad to run by his door, and is
too selfish to vote for it for fear it will
go by his neighbours door, what are
you going to do about it?''
II citizen is unselfish enough to
oppose the road in the interest OF his
fellow connty-men, ignoring the bene-
fits he would receive, who will dare to
say he is not a patriot2

are quaint and striking. The knees and

entirely bare, and they seem to be quite
comfortable even when other men are
shivering in pantaloons and overcoats.

furloughs and for decency's sake wear
pants, they find them very disagreeable

The Astronomical Society of the Pa
cifc has published an account of the
recent work in lunar photography at
the Lick observatory. The photographs
obtained by means of the great equa-
torial are greatly enlarged, and when so
treated exhibit the moons surface in
great clearness and detail. Prof. Holden
states that in the best pictures taken at
the observatory, parallel walls on the
moon, whose tops are no more than 200
yards or so in width, and which are not
more than 1000 or l,20o yards apart, are
plainly visible. Among other recent
triumphs in lunar photography are the
images of the moon obtained in March
last by NM. Paul and Prosper Henry,
at the Paris Observatory. These pho
tographs are considered by some to
eclipse all previous efforts. The sue
cess of the results is chiefly attributed
to the "use of secondary magnifier,
by means of whicn the size of the image
at the first focus was increased fifteen
times. Toledo (O.) Blade.
