TIE THIRD PARTY men III the South,
whose efforts can only strengthen the
republican party, say the Force bill is
bugaboo, and that there is no longer
any danger Gifts passage. Why they
should talk this way they know best. 1t
is certain that Mr.. Harrison's every
public expression on the subject is in
favor of that bill that every prominent
member of the republican party, South
as well rs North. is equally as pro-
nounccd in It's support; that all the
State republican conventions have re-
commended its adoption, and that the
national republican convention made it
one of the chief planks in its platform.
That it is the only thing Mr.. Harrison
needs to enable him TO put the South
under negro domination, is proved by
the fact that, even without it, there are
negro collectors Of customs at Calves
ton and Beaufort, and 2 negro postmas-
tcrat VicIsburg, and that lie nominated
negro for postmaster at Charleston.

A Writing Desk for tho Bind.

A most ingenious and humane device has
been invented by DIR. Slater for enabling
the blind to better transfer their thoughts
to writing. The invention is a writing
desk. which consists essentially of a light
frame, slightly wider than the paper to be
written upon. but more than twice its
length. A metallic rod runs across the
frame. holding the paper in it's place, and
acting as a guide to the fingers of the writer
in moving his hand straight across the pa
per. Along this rod slides a thimble-lik Q
slipper" into which the third or fourth
finger of the hand may be placed by the
writer, who is thus enabled to mark any pc,
sition on the line, Or to keep y fixed posi-
tion for the band while moving along
the rod; and If he has any occasion
to stop in the middle of the work, he will
always be able to again ex-
actly in the same place. In the face OF one
side of the frame notches are cut CORE
spending with the same between the lines
and when one line has been written the
writer places the left forefinger in the first
notch and moves up tho paper slide with
his thumb and it stops against his forefinger,
when the paper will be in position for the
writing Of the next line. Upon the Glide at
the left hand is a brass bar, by touching
which the point of the pen Or pencil OF the
writer can determine the DIN for begin
ming. This desk can MISC be conveniently
used by those who prefer to write their let
ters in an easy chair. and will be accept
able to those who fnd it difficult to wfite
without lines.

week oan thank their stars thAt they did
not live In the early days OF the colony Of
Psnnsylvanin, says the Chester, Pa.
News. This assembly that convened at
Chester Doo. 1, 1862. enacted = code
of laws that made the people Of the
nav colony live up to this mark. and. while
many OF the several penalties Of the Duke
OF York's code were aoftened, yet the I'M
fortunate deemed them harsh enough. The
man or woman who used pr0fane language
was punished by tius or imprisonment. and
more than one person had reason for reRret
for expressing their feelings In public with
too much emphasis.
The s~everest punishment was melted out
for lioentious conduct. A public whipping
and one years imprisonment was the pen
atty for the graver degrees of this crime.
while a second offense was punishable by
imprisonment for life. This law WINS
amended in 1705. the first offense being
punished by the infiotion of twenty-one
lashes and imprisonment for ono year or q
fine Of ESQ. A second conviction subjected
the culprit to seven years imprisonment,
and the letter "A" was branded on his fore
head.
The man that had more than one wife. in
stead Of being an object OF commiseration,
was liable to be sont to Jail for life. while
the man who broke into a house and stole
was sent to Jail for four months. He had
TO work like a beaver. however. and unless
he restored fourfold to tho party the court
sent him up for seven years to give
him time for reflection. Murder
was punished by death and the
forfeiture of half OF the estate Of the felon.
Theft was punished with public whipping
and various terms Of imprisonment. while
restitution had to be made from three to
four fold. The minor regulations pro-
hibited all persons from taking pa RI in
stage plays, revels, Mosques and kindred
worldly pursuits. 30 that any troupe that
hHd chanced to drop into Pennsylvania

been sent higher than Gilderoy's kite.
Drinking of health was punishable by q
fine of five shiliings or five days. imprison-
ment, and horse racing. shooting matches
and sports of like character were inter
dioted. If the offenders happened to be
slaves they were whipped and imprisoned
instead of fined.

DANGER OF DRAUGHTS.

Tho Result Depends Entirely Upon the
State of Vitality.
II is strange the difference there ia In
people about sitting in a drauRht of air.
Some persons onn sit OF lie in adraught and
not suffer the slightest inconvenience, while
others would catch their death OF cold in q
few minutes. Why is this2 It cannos be
wholly due to the relative strength of the
individual, nor solely to the conditions Of
particular organs Of the body. Judging
from observations it would seem that,
other things being equal, those who have
the best capillary circulation are the ones
least likely to suffer. But this again de-
ponds upon certain other conditions. A
person who has a very feeble pulse, showing
low vitality, cannot have a good c%ircula-
tion in the oapilliaries. The surface is
easily chilled. Hence the danger of taking
oold.--The Home Maker.
