p.. Woman . Sense Of Ju..ies7

Some time ago. in one Of these pa
pers, wrote down the opinion that
women have no sense of Justice: and
this remark called forth come letters
of earnest protest. Yet what / said
was absolutely true. A woman will
often fling herself with passionate In
tensity into a crusade against some
particular injustice. but this is not be
cause she cares anything for Justice
as a principle. but because the espe-
ciaI instance has In some way made
an appeal to her feelings. Some other
act, no less unjust, but devoid Of the
emotional element, will find her utter.
ly unmoved and stonily Indifferent,
says a writer In the Cosmopolitan. For
instance. many women in the North
were vehemently stirred by the anti
slavery movement before the civil
war. This was because their feelings
could be narrowed by tales of cruelty
such as Mrs. Stow. wrote down with
so much vivid power; but have never
heard that any Of these women were
at all disturbed by the gross injustice
wrought by negro domination during
the years Of carpet baggery. which by
comparison made slavery seem inno-
cent and wholesome.

Specimen Of Irish wit.

AS an instance OF clever repartee.
this which we find in the Boston Pi-
lot Is hard to beat. A distinguished
lawyer and politician was travelling on
a train when an Irishwoman came in
to the car with a basket, bundle. etc.
She paid her fare. but the conductor
passed by the lawyer without collect
ing anything. The good woman there
upon said to the lawyer: AN faith
an why IL 1t that the conductor takes
the money Of a poor woman an don't
ask ye. who seem to be rich man,
for anythlng?" The lawyer. who had
a pass. replied: my dear madam. I'm
travelling on my beauty" The woman
looked at him for moment and then
quickly answered: AN is that SO?

along In the middle part Of It, was
stranded there or that curbstone.
Apparently 1t didn't worry the dog

and in a moment he had himself cleaI

body was above the ground for the
