arO hundreds of thousands of homes
scattered over the land in which wo
men live, lives of torture, going through
all the changes of suffering that lie be
tween the extremes of fear and dispair
because those whom they love, love
wine better than they do the women
they have sworn to love.
There are women by thousands who
dread to hear at the door the step
that ouce filled them with pleasure,
because fhat step has learned to real
under the influence of the seductive
poison. There are women groaniug
with paip while we write these words,
from .bruises and brutalities inflicted
by husbands made mad by drink.
There.can be on exaggeration in
any statement in regard to this matter;
because no human imagination can
create anything worse than the truth.
The sorrows and horrors of a wife
with a drunken husband are as near
the realization of hell as can be reach
ed in this world at least. The shame,
the indignation, the sorrow, and the
sense of disgrace for herself and chil
dren, the poverty, and not unfrequent-
ly the beggary, the fear and the (act of
violence; the lingering, lifelong strug
gle and despair of countless women
with drunken husbands, are enough to
make all women curse wine, and en
gage unitedly to oppose it everywhere
as the worst enemy of their sex.

neglected 1 , tedpii^ his*attention; and
President Qragt, t in -.accepting the
fame, complimented the retiring Gov
ernor upon .the fidelity and ability
with which he had discharged the ar
duous aruteoffiplicated* duties <.pf his
high publjic trust. In a few years the
public debt of the District has been
ncreased from a few thousand to $17,-
000,000. f And. now the stupendous
frauds of the'ring crop out. Cooke,
seeing the crash coming, resigns, but
before going out of office the President
of the United States whitewashes his
administration and tee^fiesto, his offi-
, ial integrity. Touching upon this we
find ascatching article in the Courier
Journal, which we copy here :
“It was an odd mixture of pioqtepu-
ters and ring-plunderers that surround
ed the table of Henry D. Cobke, the
late Governor of the District of Colum
bia, in Georgetown the other * day.
There was a sumptuous banquet, at
which chaqipague flowed freely under
the inspiration of a blessing pronounc
ed by a parson of the Newman school.
Revelry and religion reeled round the
festive board hand in band, to the
great delight of all tlie guests. Ihe
occasion ol this blasphemous revel was
the promotion of Shepherd, the noto
rious head of ite Washington munici
pal ring, to the office1 of President of
the District, made vacant by the res
ignation of Governor Cooke, who, hav
ing by the outrageous policy institu
ted under his administration, sucked
the blood of the tax the .Dis
trict until his satellite* were gorged,
now makes way for another leech to
renew the work of depletion. The
parson who had brass enough to invoke
the blessing of Heaven on such a
graceless gang of blood-suckers, who
have no more conscience or sense of
shame than Capt. Kidd’s crew or La-
fitte’s buccaneers, must have an enor
mous amount of brafein the composi
tion of his cbeek9 and forehead. Grace
pronounced over a banquet gathered
by the wages of sin and devoured by
the chief of jobbing, plundering -and
peculating sinners must have sounded
as incongruously as a grace from the
lips of Friar Tuck over one of Robin
Hood’s revels.^ Sherwood Forest.
The debt of the HisfiSci has been in
creased recently from a few thousand
dollars to the sum of seventeen mil
lions, and the jobs and -contracts on
hand will increase the debt to twen
ty-five millions of dollars. The swin
dle has been censured-in .
terms by - parties.
Yet, strange to say, the President re
ceived Governor Cooke’s resignation
in terms of the highest eulogy. 'If
Cooke had been Aristides the J ust,
and hissatellites had all been men as
free' from taint and peculation as
Chief Justice Marshall or Washington
himself, his language could not have
been more complimentary. The Pres
ident has thus given his unequivocal
approval to the official rapacity of
the Washington municipal ring. The
Districts bankrupt ? the people are
unable to pay thd taxes assessed
against them; the bpnds of the na
tional-capital are at a -discount of
thirty per: cent, and find no buyers.
Yet the President approves the Cooke
administration. The country may
look out for a o
profligacy fljEKmtyU
ippoi
premiiims'for the best cooked dinner,
at the Rome Fair, say in tbeir report
of the young ladies*:
“With their own fair hands they
have crowned the brow of labor with
an imperishable garland. They pro
claim to the world “the dignity o( la
bor”—that work is honorable. We
have awarded the first premium to
Miss Hattie J, Johnson, and the se
cond premium to Miss Octavia M.
Shropshire. For special excellencies
in the dinner prepared by Mis3 Alice
Camp we recommend and request that
a premium worth $20 be awarded to
her ; and also that a premium worth
$10 be awarded to Miss Sallie .T.
Shropshire.”

The power of women is finely illus
trated in the case of a Kentucky girl,

he neglected the boiler, and an explo
sion occurred, killing three men.

Mark Twain’s Last Adventure.—
I got into the cars took a seat in
juxtaposition to a female. The fe
male’s face was a perfect insurance
company for her. It insured her a-
gainst ever getting married to anybody
except a blind man. Her mouth look
ed like a crack in a dried lemon, and
there was no more expression in her
face than there is in a cup of cold cus
tard. She appeared as it she had been
through one famine and got about two-
thirds through another. She was old
enough to be great grandmother to
Mary that had a little lamb. She was
chewing prize pop-corn, and carried
in her hand a yellow rose while a band
box and cotton umbrella nestled
sweetly by her side. I couldn’t guess
whether she was on a mission of char
ity or going West to start a saw mill.
I was full of curiosity to hear her
speak, so I said : “The exigencies of
times require circumspection in a per
son who is traveling.” Says she,—
“What?” Says I, “The orb of day
shines resplendant in the vault above.”
‘She switched around uneasily like,
then raised her umbrella and said, “I
don’t want any of your sass—git out ?’
And I got out.

and dislikes of her companions, that
she may minister to th*one and avoid
the other. She yields'^? otters the
first place, and gracefully takes of her
own accord tjie second. She never
shows temper in company; bears neg
lect, as well as attention* with an un

made conspicuous in agy way. She is

The men in Wall street, whether
they be bankers or curbstone specu
lators, who buy and sell, and enter
into schemes to make money out of
fictitiously created values, or by ta
king the money of unwary and sim-
ple-minded'people on a false pretence
of values, are not a whit better than
professional gamblers. The men who
deal at faro and the proprietors of
gambling houses are scarcely pursuing
a worse or more demoralizing business.
The gilding which the names of bank
ers and brokers and the air of respec
tability give does not make the of
ci^l .fence less immoral- If a man goes to
his neighbor making false representa
tions knowingly, and through the in
fluence Of his assumed respectability
and cunniDg arguments induces him
to buy stocks or bonds that have not
tbe>yalue pretended, wherein does he
differ from the mock auction men ? If
a banker takes the deposits of his con-
l fding customers and invests them in
very doubtful schemes to promote his
own interests or to bolster up his
bankrupt condition, is there much dif
ference between his conduct and that
of a robber who picks one’s pocket*?
Jdany of the Wall street speculators

though the law may not reach them,
they systematically rob the unsuspect
mg. * Need we wonder, then, at the
frauds, defalcations and general de
moralization that prevail in the com
munity ?—N. Y. Herald.

How to Enjot Life.—It is wonderful to what an
extent people believe happiness depeuds on not being
obliged to labor. Ilonest, hearty contented labor is
the only source of happiness, as well a. the only
guarantee of life. Idleness and lnxnry induces pre
mature decay much faster than many trades regarded
as tbe most exhaustive and fatal to longevity. Labor
in general actually increases the term of life. It
is the lack of occupation that annually destroy so many
qf the pealthy, who, having nothing to do, play the
part of drones, and, like them make a speedy exit,
while tbe busy bee 6I1h out its days in usefulness and
honor.
Death will certainly come some time, and it is bet
ter to be prepared to die than to be yonng again.
