Social stimulus is always a great quickener, but if nature desires to re create itself in genuine freedom, it must be held in the society of itsequals. If you could bring a dozen old people together, to play and be merry, and j could make them all cordially believe in this as right, proper and eminently to be desired, and as the only whole some tonic for dignified and respecta ble men and women of three-seore-and- ten, you whold inaugurate a new era. Christmas plays, with all tbe young folks present, can never have a tithe of the relish which these old people’s carnivals, freely dedicated to health and merriment, might easily command. A whittling club for the dear old Yan kee octogenarians would be no bad idea.

Generous emulation would make the ;old people swing on their paralle bars, climb dizzying ladders, dahee Virginia reels, and almost stand on their heads and turn somersets, as they used to seventy years ago.

The Cynocephalus is dead, but Don nelly and Washburn still live ; Dan Rico has retired from the ring, hut the West transports to Washington a couple of representative clowns and blackguards, who in the intensity of their language, and the coarseness oi their invective greatly surpasses the devotees of sawdust aud tan-bark. It was, perhaps, proper and progressive that the sports and pastimes of the an cients should be handed down to us aud imitated with so much precision and exactness as have been demonstra ted in the modern arena. The Hip podrome of the Romans and the Court- tools of Shakespeare’s time have found ample scope and appreciation in this civilized period of the world’s history. Temples have been dedicated to their development and use, and talent has lent itself to their display. But while we have watched we have, not been disgusted. The antics of the clown aud the marvelous movements of the acrobats have induced only delight; for while the .classic area may not have been faithfully reproduced in all par ticulars, the performance has been sufficiently satisfactory to please and edify most tastes. Not so with the Congressional gymnasts, who seek to perform two roles at one time and fail in both. Such Radical acrobats as Donnelly and Washburn, who try the trapeze, the tight-rope, and most of the difficult feats of the circus ring, only to find that they are not equal to the task, imitating the vagaries of the profession, put on the cap and bells under the impression that they will succeed better in that sphere. Failing in that also they descend to a level beside which the slums of the metrop olis are a very Eden of refinement and beauty. Transgressing even the limits of the ring these rnnehorous Radicals, who are supposed to represent public sentiment in their own districts at least, and who claim for their party the sum of all morality which the country possesses, pour into public debate an amount of venom and invec tive that would astonish the vilest denizens of the infamous market of Billingsgate. “By their works ye shall know them.”—N.

When once upon a certain memorable eve shepolkaed with the druggist’s clerk, and never even looked at you, how miserable you were. It is funny to think of now, but it was not funny then, for you were awfully in earnest. Once, at a picnic, she wore a white dress and had roses twined in her back hair, and she looked so much like a bride that you fairly trembled; some times you thought in just such snowy costume, with just such bloossoms in her hair, she might stand beside the altar, and you most blessed of all mor tals, might place a golden ring upon her finger; and when you were left aione with her for a moment, some oi your thoughts would form themselves into words, and though she blushed and ran away, and would not let you kiss her, she did not seem to be an- gT- how parted for a little while, and when you met again she was walking with a gentleman, a large, full-whis kered man, of twenty-eight or thirty, aud had neither word nor smile for you. And some well-meaning gossip inform ed you shortly after that she was “en gaged” to the tall gentleman with black whiskers, and that “it was a splendid match:” It was terrible news to you then, and sent you off to some great city, far from your native place, where, after a good deal of youthful grief, and many resolutions to die and j are getting haunt her, you recovered your equa nimity and began to make money and to call love stuff and nonsense. You have a rich wife of your own now, and grown-up children—aye, even two or three toddling grand-children, about your hearth; your hair is gray, and you lock your heart up in the fire-proof safe at your counting house when you go home at night. Aud you thought you had forgotten that little episode of your nineteenth year, until the other day, when the you read of her death in the papers. You know she was a stout lady, who wore glasses, and hud lied older than she was in that olden tin e, but your heart went back and you saw her smiling and blushing, with her golden hair about her face, and yourself a boy again, dreaming of wedding robes and rings, and you laid your gray old head upon your office desk and wept for the memory of your first sweetheart. among the outs, and now he is one ot the ius. Then, after his banishment, he ap plied in vain for the French array the array himself. Then he was play ing Garribaldi; now he is Emperor. Moreover, as astute politicians can al ways find some plausible explanation of their inconsistencies, he may say that as a private individual, his senti ments about the temporal power of the Pope remain uuchanged, but that as Emperor he must represent the tradi tional policy of France, which is to de fend the temporal power. At any rate, Louis Napoleon may console him self with the reflection that if his po litical course had been uniformly con sistent, he would have very little company among the other rulers and would ba clever enough to save it.

There is no more reason why the cooking and washing of a taniily should he done within our dwelling than the tailoring ami the shoemaking.

It was during the war, and the wrinkled hands of the good woman were employed in knit ting socks for the soldiers. Of course the conversation turned naturally up on the a flairs ot the country. W hile talking of the army, tbe President and Congress, the name ot Stevens was mentioned. Instantly the large black eyes of our hostess brightened, and she said : “It was over there on that farm that Thaddeus Stevens was born;” and she pointed to a gray house in sight, a mile or more across the hills. “ You knew him, then?” I asked. “ Indeed I did, ma’am !” was the enthusiastic reply. “ We used to sit on the same seat in the old school house down in the hollow yonder.” It required little questioning to draw from the willing and garrulous old soul the story of her former school mate. “ The family were poor,” she said, “and Mrs. Stevens was one of those hard-working mothers who toil from morning till night, week in and week out. ‘She would have worked her fingers to the bone that her boy might get book learning.

Yes, indeed! That’s the destiny of many a Republic—we know it. for we have actually been told so. The ladies take to it, and it to them.

This downw ard tenden cy, which began with the advent, and has been developed by the growth of Radicalism, must be checked, or our institutions will perish, as the Roman empire fell under the blight of like causes. If Radicalism be not defeated it will overthrown the Government.— Rational Intelligencer. Suicides in London.—The Lon don Morning Star says: “The num ber of suicides by drowning has in creased to an alarming extent of late. We are afraid to enumerate those that have taken place only within the last fortnight. How is it that one can hard y take up a newspaper without seeing an account of one or two of these melancholy occurrences? Is it that the average of misery is higher among us than among other peoples, or, simply, that we do our reporting better? The last suicide to be added to tbe list is that of a respectable young girl, who yesterday morning jumped offLoudon Bridge after a quar rel with her lover.” Stop dat Knockin’ at de Door.— He is knockin again—the man and the brother is—this time at the door of the General Conference of the Method ist Episcopal Church now being held in Chicago, This is the great aboli tion, Radical “ impeachment” Church, boasting of having a conference in every State and Territory, and profess ing (here at least) to have no objec tion to giving the negro social equality. That may do to talk about in Charles ton, wdiere they know it will “rile the rebs,” but in Chicago, it appears a different view is taken of the matter. The Washington City aud Delaware Mission Conference have sent two delegates whose sanctity is of the col ored odor. The only two darkies in a conference of two hundred and fifty members. Of course you will think, gentle reader, that the door flew open wide and the two hundred and fifty charged at the two men aud brethren and embraced them, only too glad to show to the world how miscegenation brethren should live together. Of course they did nothing of tbe sort. The two reverend gentlemen of color were respectfully asked to stay out in the cold. After a long debate in re gard to their admission the matter was finally referred to the bench of bish ops. In the meantime the two gentle men are still shivering in the outer atmosphere.
