This coftlly onteide gear war pttrehhaed at the expense of mnwy neeeabary (domforts. And yet, what to her mind is more eary than that ahe should “look as well as anybody" on the gay throtghfeceof V street? ^ The hue and expression of her face is less satisfae- tory tHaji her cbetauie. It wears the melansl bat which aedeidayy habu always brings in this Uti whilo the heavy eyes and the dark rings under tell of gk^nght and late hoars. It is a yotrng fh wkuWi tbbbloeeoin of youth is touched already with the shadow of age. No wonder. Her livelihood is uncertain, her life anxious. There is so little perma nency to her sitaation that she is in constant fear of being summoned to the chief of her department, and told that she i* one of a number dismissed. Then would come another siege upon the member from her discfibt fdr another place, another waiting, another season of running in debt, and afloat, perhaps, disap pointment. She knows nothing here of the comforts ■ home. Mere -business boarding boose keepers unfriendly to female clerks. Thair foremost of fense is that they are unprofitable, and are too poor to pay the most exhorbitant prices. Another aggravat ing fault is, they are often very pretty; they attrset gentlemen, perhaps to tho neglect of the Unready or her daughters; they bum gas late, or they stay oat late; are deemed universally troublesome, and not to be desired. .. Tjuyi the department girl wanders about from lardimg-honae to boarding-house, from discomfort to scodxfort, often from bad to worse, till she comes to to conclusion, at last, that all we women, at least, are combiiUKUipunai her as foes. Thus she is left to seek society solely from men. It is a long step toward ruin when a woman believes that she has no friend, tried, trusted, aud true, among women; when she turns to men only for sympathy and support. This girl, ex posed to the promiscuous intercourse of boarding house parlors, often finds admirers, friends and lovers among strangers aad adventurers; among men of du bious antecedents, perhaps among men notorious for vice. If she im held halbk from contamination by a pure temperament, by strong principle, by hallowed association well. Bat if, without either, she can turn to no mother, to no sister, to no strong, loving woman- friend, a creature of uugoverued instincts, aud irreso- kiie-wtM, dolling on with the tainted tide of circum stance, alas! May the Lord h^ve mercy on her, for the worldly and the wicked wl\l not. She might have qfctid *t home, and made bonnets or drosses, ttl^e ought have tended a store, or have colored photographs, or have become a designer, or a teacher ;'<nr been a sunny housemaid in aome rural home, where every member of the household is help- and honors labor. Better any of these • employ*- inents, near home and friends, than the dangers of this capital, Bnt all these would be work; and it is uot work, you know, but very lady-like, to out bank notes, or %b have a aituatioh in a department. I for bear- adfUug another homily on the dignity aud beauty of labor, 1 doubt if auy of ns work much more than we are obliged to. And, while manual toil is associ ated, as it is, almost solely with foreign ignorance and slavish poverty, it is not easy to crown it with the ideal grass ®! Ufa. Yet wn might exalt it thus, if We only would. If each one of n* would say, U> Urn labor of my hands I will w&d the gentlest affections of mr heart ; I will rfflne ami elevate my common toi! with Ahe finest (udfcure of my brain ; tho thing neces sary to be done, that 1 will do patiently and cheerfully, ighyjing no. honest work that will bring independence, competence, and self-respect, self-help, and help for others—then we ooqld aU look into each other's eyes as peers, and, without waiting longer for the Lord, commence a millHiiium on our own responsibility. The department Ilfs in Washington forma one of its moat distinctive phases. It offers a field of illustration to DTck'enfe richer than the Court of Chancery or the lanes of London. In the vaults of the Capitol, in the remote closets of the vast Treasury, from the cob- webbed holes of the State aud War Departu&ents, from tho marble tombs of the Postoffies, you can uneartn men who have grown old, and feeble, and gray, doing the machine work and tontine service of a generation. Often poverty imd p*ti\os cling to their garments and look through the gray hopelessness of their facet*. For it is proverbial that a man who spends his days in the departments of Washington always ends them poor, and leaves his famUy unprovided for. If a change of administration throws turn from his situation, be is the most abject and hopeless of mortals; for it is im possible fur Xhs routine mau or the machine man to strike out for himself and succeed in any independent enterprise. Yet the departments are full of talent. Men possessing education and every gift but the indis pensable one of getting on in the world, and making life a Huccese, take refuge here from a responsibility and uncertainty, and spend their whole existence as copyists for the Government A situation in a depart- meat is the ultima ttutfn, too, of the young man who aspires to be a g^nuenum of very small capital. Here, to?y from her country home comes the unpro tected girt, sueing “her member" for a place in the Treasury, all unwitting that ahe is walking into the clutches of temptation, if not of vice. God may keep her—he does mauy; ahe may walk through the fire unscathed, and ahe may perish, spiritually, oodily, as many do, who might be pure, peaceful, and prosper ous, if they had stayed at home. There are aad stories I could tell you, ‘'Independent," of the woman-olerk life in Washington; but I don't want to. I only want to say to tho young man, and especially to the young woman, straggling for a situation in these depart ments as the moat desirable thing to be obtained, stay at home; be content to live humbly, to work patiently, Independence and competence will come at last; neither will ever come to you here. To dis abled soldiers, to elderly and experienced women, to young inou who use it as a passing help to a definite object in life, to disappointed men who have no other hope and no other refuge, a department situation may be a blesHiug. But to the young man and the young woiuau, with no defined plan or purpose of being, drifting into the tainted atmosphere of boarding-house liie, into the polluting influence of boarding-house Hfe, nitii the polluting infiqenoe of men grown gray in oor- rupuon, it is the veriest curse. fa ■ IffTMCW SU WXLHHMffliMBi MMPUCITK; SOONUttV, JADBABUoTT aaffiBOW* felt, ir|>SM %my ■affilffa fc« Bitax Oattofc i before pirI—led ti» toa. caoatqr.

The Anglo American Times, published in London, lias an article upon the Memphis riots, which closes with the following re marks; . Andrew Johnson has a gigantic task before him. Few of us can appreciate the enor mous difficulties with which he has to con tend. . Few of us can folly understand the meat*, by which he hopes to perform the solemn promise he there made. His meas ures may not appear to us directly to lead to such an object, and we must not forget that the children,of Israel passed to their Prom ised Land through forty years of suffering In the Desert, and that their leader was only permitted to get a glimpse of the country which Providence had marked out for his followers. There are those who believe that the President’s heart has failed him in the task; that he has fallen off from the stern re solve required for the weary struggle. But we de not believe this.
