THERE is a great deal of talk be-
ing made because a few of Governor
stones messages were printed in
German. The Germans of Missouri
are among our most substantial cit

The Wife In the Home.

Archdeacon Farrar, D. D., in the New Yorl
Independent.
We hear a great dealt in these day
about woman's rights and the spher,
of woman's influence. Christianity
has given no woman an immense
sphere of overwhelming influence, i
she have the gifts and the grace te
use it rightly, In the bosom of hel
own family. IF the domestic duties
be well performed, said Coniucius,
there is no need to go afar to offer
sacrifice" Perhaps some emanei-
pated women may read the remark
with a sneer, but SO far from regard
ing the domestic duties as to narrow
an are for influence. l regard them
az forming a region co,extensive with
that of the human race. A woman
may, indeed, take deep interest in
ever extending horizons OF vision
aud yet not
Rank with those detestable,
Who let the bantling scald at home, and brawI
Their rights and wrongs like potherhs In the
streets.
Her duties undoubtedly begin
with the home; and If home duties
be generally neglected all attempts
at performing wider ones will be a
more or less DISASTROUS failure. A
woman may be profoundly learned,
she may be pfe-emiuently devoted
to religion, she may DO widely phil
anthrorie and yet be a perfect wife.

the factory girls in the corporation bank
must tell the pleasant story. The kinh-
Hest telling ruled on both sides. In the
friendly corporation boarding hous,
prices ranged low t. meet the purses OF
the many. Young girls living here as in
their homes, had the home comforts of u
piano, quite their own possession, and
books to read, and book to publish and
edit, hlling this with wit and wisdom
and sweet poesy. for upon their list OF
happy workers stood such names as Lucy
Larcom, and by her side was Margaret
Foley, whose canoes were later known
on both SIDES of the broad Atlantic.
Wumen have carried the germ OF inven-
tions in their brain, or have had rude
machines made to expedite their work,
or have frankly spoken of their bright
ideas, have too often from fear of ridicule
AMI social ostracism allowed SONS male
friend or relative to pit tent their lea
and take the credit and the cash results.
such case Is that of Mrs. Greene,
widow OF General Greene of revolutionary
fame, who after encouraging one Eli
Whitney Ito whom she had offered
home when he was disappointed by loss
of a promised situation) to study into the
needs of the cotton interest in the direc-
ton OF machine to separate the tena-
CiOus cJtton seed from the cotton fibre,
and having watched him give up in des-
pair, applied herself to the work and so
vented o machine so perfect that with
very 81 ght changes it has been the model
ever since.
This N .ention until now standing in
the name of Eli Whitney who kindly ca
appropriated 1t with all the glory and
i'm ID ense returns, has done more for cUm
MERGE and civilization than any one
other machine ever invented. IL raised
the cotton industry in America from the
production of a few pounds among the
sooseberry bushes of garden TO that of
the fruitage of hundreds of Thousands of
acres and utilized the black labor of the
south; for, whereas, hand labor before
this, had been able to prepare but one
pound of cotton in day, the machine
prepared $1,000 pounds. And thus the
needed i'm petus to cotton growing in the
south was given.
In the state of Georgia, where this in
vention originated we may see another
picture in the ind istries, that of young
girl OF Is years MANAGING her fathers cot
ton gin. and einnin, 1870 bales year.
When the mach inc is "wel- behaved she
sits beside it daintily array ed, knitting
trim mings for her own and for her
friends clothing.
