Oar oontsmporary, tho Pittahurg Chroni

book, “Publicans and Burners," gives the
title, “ liepublieans »udSiuners."
—A Professor, who stated that one can

"No, dear; why ia it ?" “Because,"
murmured John Henry, absently, "it is

diaoernible the next moment.
A WoNDEnroL Animal.—A Western pa

Perhaps yon don’t know it, bnt it is a
foot tbat fashion to no longer oonflaed to
drem,' or the style of arranging the hair.
The men personal exterior composes but
a small part of tbs immaaaa domain whioh
ths fickle goddess, Fashion, oootroto. She
not only dietates the length and style of
a baba's first dram, but after saying what
be or ahe shall waar during life, sod ths
manner in whioh he or aha shall live,
Fashion asaerta the kind of shtowd that
it is “just the thing” to be buried in, and
the particular kind of funeral tbat to ue-
ceaaary to convoy the properly oofflned
body totbe grave. I doubt not, should
cremation ever become general, Fashion
will direct the kind of odor that must be
sprinkled on the aabaa, and the peculiar
ities of the nrn in whioh they era pre
served. The only things not ebanged by
Fashion are the exaot sciences; but abe
usurps the province of the arts, and tolls
os what kind of arohitootnra is ths rage,
what style of painting it to wall to patron
ise, the peculiarities of poetry that most
be enoouraged, and what to the sweetest
thing for ths year io poodle dogs and
oropped hones. Custom, whioh for many
centuries was a lew rnliog the oondoot of
our fathers, to e dsad deity, end now, at
the bidding of preaiding Fashion, whose
ediote ere annually issued from Paris—
that city of moral parity and Spartan jfco-
ple—we live, and eat, and dress, and
make ooreelvea generally uncomfortable.
The young and beantlfnl lady who for
the present will boss this oolnmn oan toy,
however, with troth, that aba ignore* all
tbs frivolities of Fashion, and dtesses
with s simplicity and native eieganoe all
her own, and whioh surprises her gentle
man admirers when she assures them she
attires herself for thirty dollars a year,
and haa only had one pair of pants ainoe
ths 14 th of August, 1878.
Fashion Drops.
Long trains are coming in again for
summer dresses intended for evening
wear. They are gracefully looped at
the sides and book by means of a long
sasb.
Parisian bonnets are all made of the
crownless shape and are literally one
mass of flowers. No strings are used but
a fall of lacs on either side and at the
baok.
In Paris naroon skirts with noisette
tunics are great favorites. These oolors,
says a fashion writer, are pleasant to the
eye, and harmonise beautifully together,
which ia more than sufficient reason for
their vogue.
Titifeta silks are popular for summer
wear aa they are so mueh lighter than
grot grain. They are very glomy and
make up handsomely with little if any
elaborate trimmings.
Shepherdess shaped bats will be fash
ionable at the seaside. They require lit
tle trimming, the more rnstio and “ship
shape" they look the better.
Drossy canopy shaped parasols of block
silk are embroidered with Jet and edgad
with jet fringe. Lacs oovered parasols,
with ivory of coral stioks, are only suita
ble for dressy carriage or reception toil
ette.
The double breasted English walking
jacket will eontinne in fashion until warm
weather fairly seta in. It to one of the
most stylish wraps introdnoed for many
years.
One of the most beautiful specimens of
floral workmanship was a ship of flowers
presented to a bride who sailed from
New York last week in one of the Onnerd
steamers. It was four feet long and
eight feet high. The masts were gaily
docked out with silk flags and tho sails
were of white satin. The smoke stack
was of red pasteboard (in exact imitation
of the Cunard steamers) aud on deok
wore chairs and benobaa of evergreen.
Above all, on a spiral, was a live dove.
The oust of this floral Hhip was $500.

It ia Buid that msuy young ladies in the
Northwestern States have become insane
owing to religions excitement arising
from revivals. Better be orazed by re
ligion than have their beads turned by
the love of finery,
Attempting to suppress s sneeze baa
just proved s serious matter to * lady at
Springfield, Mass. A partial paralysis
was eausod by the effort, by wbieb one
side of the face has beoorne bo distorted
that hor intimate friends fail to recognize
her features, and it is considered doubt
ful if they will ever resume their natural
appearance. It will he seen from this
that ladies had better sneeze jadioiously.
Miss Bells Murray, late deputy olerk of
the Circuit Court of McLean county, Illi
nois, is on trial on the ehsrge of embez
zlement. Her defalcation is to be regret
ted ; slid yet it is proof unquestionable
that women sro tally competent to fill
tho various offices heretofore monopolized
by men, and for that matter in the iden
tical manner of men.
A new York “sooiety" journal is very
dosponding. It says : “It is very dull in
society ju-t now; little of interest trans
piring. Youug ladies sit in the drawing
rooms at night, and re-arrange their dress
every time the door-bell rings, anticipat
ing young gentlemen visitors. During
tho day they read novels or look over lost
year's ‘duds' to see what can be ‘flzed
over' for Bpring. The effects of tbe psnlo
are still felt iu society.”
A correspondent writes from Washing
ton : "I was never snre that wo were not
civilized people till I contemplated my
oompatriots ia the Washington sapper-
room on a ‘festival occasion.' There I
have seen dignitaries, whom the public
believo have enough to eat at home, push-
iug toward a supper-table os a oanuibal
might to a feast; sad ladies, renowned ss
‘delicate,’ with piled-up plates—salads,
fruits, creams—clamming at a rate that
would make a perfectly licaltby woman
sick abed for n week."
Wheu ltubinsteiu was iu Boston bo was
—Ood to ths Ood of love. Christianity
to a religion of love. Jesus Christ was an
inaarnation of love ; be was love, living,
breathing, speaking, amongst men; hie
birth was tbe nativity of love ; his ser
mons, the word of love; his miracles, the
wondera of love ; bis tears, the meltlnf
of love; bis crucifixion, tbe agonies o)'
love ; bis death, the sacrifice of love;
•ad bie resurrection, tbe triamph of love,
“I Am the Doom.”—Ia a town in the
north of Scotland some boys were in tbe
habit of meeting together for prayer. A
little girl waa passing, and heard them
sing. She slopped to listen, and thinking
it was just an ordinary prayer-meeting
she felt anxious to get in. Patting op
her band, she pulled the latoh, but It
would not open ; it was fastened inside.
She became very uneasy, and the thought
arose in her mind, “Wbat if this ware tbe
door of heaven,''and me outside I" She
went home, but could not sleep. Day
after day she became more troubled at the
thought of being shot out of heaven.
She went from one prayer-meeting to an
other, still finding no rest. At length,
one day, reading tits tenth chapter of
John, she oama to the words, “I am tbe
door.” She paused, and read the verse
again and again. Here was tha very door
she waa seeking, and wide open too, and
she entered it and found peace.
Ciibistian Pboobess. — When I speak
of Christian progress, it is in descending,
not ia mounting. As when we ehsrge a
vessel, the more ballast we pat in, the
lower it sinks; so the more love we have
in the boo), the lower we are abased in
self. The side of the sosles whioh ia ele
vated ie empty; so the sonl ia elevated
only when it is void of lave. “Love is
onr weight,” says St. Augustine. Let ns
so oharge ourselves with the weight of
love as to bring down self to its just levsl.
Let its depth bs manifest by our readiness
to bear tne cross, the humiliations, the
sufferings which are necessary to the pu
rification of the eoul. Oar humiliation is
onr exultation. “Whosoever is least
among yon shall be greatest,” says onr
Lord. I love yon, my dear ebild, ia tbe
love of the Divine Master, who so abased
himself by love? 0, what a weight of
love, ainoe it eausod so astonishing a fall
—from heaven to earth, from God to
man! There ia abeautifnl passage in tbe
imitation of Christ—“Love to be un
known. '' Let ns die to all but Christ.—
Madame Quyon.
—All nature's spinning mnst be unrav
eled before the righteousness of Jesus
ean be pat on. All that is of nature’s
patting on, Baton will plunder, and leave
the aonl open to God's wrath. All nature
can do will.never make tbe least drachm
of grace that can mortify sin, or look
Christ in the face. Ask thyself dail
tha blood of Jeans upon tby sonl ? 8
righteousness do I stand upon to be
saved? Have I pat off all self righteous-
ncsst If thou ever saweat Jesus, He was
a rook higher than aelf-righteouaoeis.
Satan and sin and this rock follow's thee,
and there will be droppings of graoe and
honey oat of that rook to satisfy tbee,
“and surges will.not break thee, but only
heave thee off thyself upon the rook
