M AJOItH, Mlfttreift Violet Keeling, a colored laily of con«ideiable perspicacity res ident in Danville Va., appeared lie tore t lie hopper of the Outrage Mill in Washington yesterday, and, with the assistance of John Sherman, testified with great ability. She dcclaied that yvhen she heard that a colored - man lvad voted the Democratic ticket she immediately proceede to ostracise him, -She was certain he had sold him* 'Kelt. She ensistel that if her hus band were to vote the Democratic ticket she would “pack tip her chute nud go to her (alder.” Aad i she didn’t possess that sort ol residuary relative, she would woik for twenty five"ce*it«- a week and “support lieu otvnself.” It was her intel'.’gent the ory that I 'if a colored man voted the Democratic t : cket he would have no pnviligea, and il he toted the other lie would lnve some. At this point in her testimony she rematked in mel ancholy parenthesis, “Dey hain't got none nohow.“ Mrs. Violet Keel ing seems to be a woman of lare ob servation and more or less political acumen.

There is danger of interpreting too literally the old, worn-out quotation: * J wo K.mu wit.i out a s nut - thought— Tw lio.irts hit l) nt h ono.** The two souls that 1m I but a single thought would be very narrow souls, indeed, and the chan es are that tliev would speedily get tired of that/single thought A honevnioon may. fitly he a moon for two onlv; and I like the En glish fashion of going oil’ to pass it in some quiet spot hotter than tlic Ameri can one of “Their Wedding Journey. ’’ when tho trunks and their contents are alike new. and every detail speaks of tin* recent ceremony. Hut even a wed dim? journey may lie a season of sweet arid sneretrisolation—and there is, per haps. something in the very restraint that travel imposes upon tenderness which makes the end of each da’s journey a special delight— : givcs it some thing of the zest of meeting after part ing. Out of a lifetime, it is not too much to take this one bright.; brief mouth lor solitude « (leu-, the woritl forgetting, by the world forgot. Hut after ties moon of enchantment is over, and real life must begin, it is important to begin it with true theories instead of false ones. It is true, no doubt, that two peoplo who are not only married out muled, cjjn suilice for each othftr. They are not -likely to weary of each others’ soci ety. Their interests are one. their hopes, their desires. They could go to the end ot the world, if need were, to India, to Australia, to the North l’ole. if they could find their way th ro, and. having each other, be everywhere eon tent. They count live for years as two very strong and real people, whom I happen to know, did live, in the midst of an absolutely alien and hostile com munity, and suilice to each other. But because they could do this, it does not. tollow that it is tho best life. (ino lil.es sometimes to read other poets than Shukspcare, though one would prefer him to any of Ins lesser brethren, as the companion of T-oars of Captivity. It is a better and a healthier thing for two human creatures, even the most loving and the most beloved, to live to some degree nm >ng other people—to interest themselves in uthe lives; and thus i-ring some variety inf* their own. A widowe 1 mother said t me tho other day, in speaking of > who in a dozen \ears: “Wtf are so si.ent together, that 1 half think we shall lo>e the power of speech. IV’e an* in per .'lock sympathy, hut our life has np.n vv events, and we have talked tho old ones over so m>tn y titue*. We know each o'her-s faith, hopes, belie.is. ex periences. as we know our own. so what is there to talk about?” 1 can conceive that this same state of things might come to pass in a v r. happy and united marriage if Ihiatnar ried pair lived chietly in solitude. Worse things than ties might, (A course, befall them. To )o-o their perfect un derstanding of each other would be tar worse—but it would ho a healthier life to be more associa ed with their fellows. To be too isolated is apt to induce that too easy familiarity which breeds, if hoi contempt, disenchantment. And yet them is anotlier danger not to be ignored in too int mate associa tion with oliers. Jealousy, which some body has called “the fond injustice of jin unsatisfied heart,” is a very real thing; and scarcely any gain count bo a sufficient reward for making acquaint ance with its tortures.

Near Norcroos there resides an old German go dogist who loves to live among the peculiar specimens of veget able and mineral matter which he has uncarted and housed.

In the center of this long room there rests a s’one half the size of a hen egg, which was picked up by the owner month* and months ago. it was found by its owner one rainy afternoon. For nearly a week he had been on a tramp through tiie hills and dales near hi- - bom*’, and weary with his ceaseless toil ho was wending his way home when his eyes fill upon something from which the rays of the sun were scattered in a thou and directions. With little thought of what he was doing, the geologist stooped down and picked up the object. It was nearly naif tho size of a hen’s egg, and of ir regular shape. It was cover* d in many pt-v-M with thick, heavy clay, which was removed with great care. it j/iuiiti t.-» u; v hard, aha whenever struck w-th a Rnrd sub st.a nee g;tvo forth hut little sound.
