Uhal ISeea the Army l>o *
Krtvm our active Army the great \Y est
reoeives 17,077 men, or nearly 80 pyr
cent. The entire line of the seacoast
and northern boundary east of the great
lakes, a line probable 11,t*H> miles long.
Is occupied by men. This line
contains the numomus and costly works
built to prevent the occupation of the
country hv a foreign enemy, 40 in ntttii
ber, ami therefore garrisoned by about
130 men eaoh. ThU distribution of the
Army Is a sulllcieut answer to the
charges w hlch have occasionally lx*et
made, of a military occupation of the
South in the Interests of a political
party. A military force of d.527 men,
distributed mainly on the seacoast and
in mountain districts, in S3 detached
posts, cannot be considered a formidable
demonstration tow ard Slates which cxn
tain a population of 10,1133,141 persons.
Assertions like tliesc arc mere snarls
which show how completely the Army
question is stripped of all entangling
complication*, and how wide must be
the search that can discover any argu
ment tor its reduction but the argument
of cost.
In fact the Army finds its work in
tiie South aliimst as laborious as at (he
froutier posts, and without the com
pensation w hlch real military opera
tions afford the soldier. "Still hunt
ing," or the breaking up of illicit dis
tilleries, is one of its principal occupa
tions. for the troops stationed at jxv-ts
in the interior are in fact in the service
of the Treasury IVjiartmcut. This is
constabulary work, and though it is
faithfully performed, it is offensive both
to officers and men. But it is a duty
that cannot be shirked, and if the mili
tary force is reduced beyond a certain
point, the Government will be com
pelled to supply its place with a civil
constabulary. Such a # measure would
prv>bablr be more unpopular than a
partial disbandinent would be popular.
Here we are brought to the question
which is the foremost one that i- em
bodied in all this discussion of Army
reduction. Is the Army larger than t
needed? When that is answeted the
question of a more economical manage
ment w ill he in place. To reach a de
cision we must first -ttrvey the work
imposed upon the force, and we shall
find the active Army di-tributed about

■arket In n suntil SpanUh Town.
The market was held in a tiny, open,
oval space in front of the church, ami
under the shade of two crumbling old
bouses, which bad once, as the heavy
coats-of-aims over their portals
showed, he*-ti the rtis of some gtxxl
Spanish family. The market consisted
of two stalls; on one lay the buntitlos,
or oil-cakes, the operation of frying
being then and there earned on by the
vendor, and a few round cakes of
bread : on the other lav a few shape
less lumps of pork and a basket of
salted sardines— this last, fried in oil,
being almost the jyiere de rerutanre of
every meal of tiie Spanish poor. As iu
every Spanish market, the marked
feature was the abundance of succu
lent, savory vegetables ftorn the few
neighboring inigated gardens. The
Spaniard, whether rich or poor, is a
vegetarian ; vegetables and fruit form
the staple of his diet. The vegetables
were piled on the ground in heaps, the
women squatting on a rug oehitid
tli m, the scales lying close at baud.
H re were bright carrots and turuips ;
h re small green onions, full-grown
oni-vns, and gatlic; here cow-cabliages
of fabulous size ; here huge calnrti an*,
or pum, kuis, with a skiu like the Imtk
of a gnarled oak-tree, and sold in
lumps ot one pound each for Iwo far
things, the rich deep orange of the flesh
looking quite luscious; here lay a heap
of the enormous, but tender drnrttnoi,
or radish, of Spain ; or a heap of tine
potatoes, and the bright-colored pimi
eatos. or capsicums. The scene was
striking for its simplicity ; even the
gentlemen of the town were there,
draped in their abnudant mpote*, or rw
po*. carrying home their tiny bit of
meat and their wealth of vegetables
for the day's consumption. A few
words were exchanged here and there,
bat the plaza was soon stripped of its
wealth, and as the last onion was car
ried off in triumph, "clang, clang,"
went the bell from the old church tow -
er above at, and we. with some half
dozen ladies, in deep mourning, and
five or six men, wefltt in to join the ear
ly mtsa, and ask for a blessing on the
day that lay before us.— Temple Bar.
A Heidelberg *UBet.
"While in Heidelberg," says a receDt
writer in the Cincinnati Gazrtle, "we
walked one evening up to the imposing
rains of the old castle, and during the
hour that every one else was fascina
ted by the music in the concert grouds.
we Btrolled down the terrace that over
looks the old city, gray with age and
teeming with historic reminiscences.
The Neckar flowing down between the
Konigstbal and the Hetligenlierg, the
hills covered with vineyards, the curi
ous old bridge, the red-tiled roofs, and
the church spires were all glistening
in the rays of the sun. As the god of
day gradually sank below the horizon
there came a soft atmospheric ha/H
--over the scene that would have deligh
ted the heart of Claude Lorraine, and
which is often found in the lights and
shadows of bis landscaites. The sky
changed from a golden yellow to so
brilliant a crimson that no preparation
of cinnabar could have reproduced it,
unless it be the carmine prepared by
Madame Cenetta, of Amsrerdum, of so
brilliant a hue that it is painful to the
naked eye. Twice, while among the
Alps, we had the pure Alpine glow so
vivid and intense that the whole world
seemed clothed in crimson tire, but in
no country have we ever witnessed a
scene so grand as the one that lav be
fore us. It was % vision of encfiant
ment."

Although they may not be willing to
acknowledge it, the happiness of the
race depends to a great extent upon
women. They regulate the domestic
life, and upou it, more than upon the
great events which All the pages of
history, depend individual peace and
comfort. I'rohably few things have
more to do with the happiness of a
household than the presence or absence
of that exquisite tact which rounds the
sharp corners, and softens the asperities
of different characters, enabling people
differing most widely to live together in
peace, cheered by mutual good oflices.
The possession of this quality is the
especial characteristic, and its exercise
one of the most delightful prerogatives
of womanhood. We may be willing to
lose all, to die, if need be, for those we
love, but if we do not, from day to day,
abstain from the little unkind or
thoughtless acts whicli interfere with
their comfort, we shall utterly fall to
make them happy, and their hearts will
inevitably escape us. The heroic and
magnificent acts of life are few. To
many but oite, to most none comes in a
life-time. Therefore influence can only
come through the right performance of
the "trifles" which "make the sum of
human things."

upon his pursuer a steady hx>k of stern
reproof. The raging be.ist immediately
moderated his rate pel hour, and finally
cauie to a dead hall within a yard ot the

An ant laden with a grain of corn,
which he had acquired with infinite
toil, was breasting a current of hi

It occurred to him that an excess of
ceremony is an abuse of courtesy. S>
he laid dow u his burden, sat U|x*n it,
folded all his legs tight to hi- txxiy, ami
smiled a smile of great grimiie—.
"Hullo! What's the matter with

"Sick of the hollow eouveutioiialitie

"Ah! then we uiu-t trouble you for

Teaching 4 hlltlreu (uTnlfe
In the vocabulary of educated and
iiiglily cultivated people, tlie iiuiuUt of
words in ordinary use ranges from
2.000 to 3,000, aul, iu rare cases, to
1,000 words. The ignorant require but
a few hundreds to express all they have
to say, and as they rise in the scale of
culture, they add* constantly to their
vocabulary new terms to express new
Ideas.
When one who bv much study. vari
ous reading, and many turning- of the
lexicon has acquired a fair knowledge
of liis mother tongue, and, with this in
mind, takes up hi- little four-year-old
and begins to teach hint the rudiments
of the language, it does seem that the
youngster ha- entered on a long and
weary way. Through how many hours
of slow plodding in primer and reader,
in sj>eller and deflner, must he pass, and
how many hooks must he read, before
the words to which he has been thus
introduced will have lively and ready
meaning for him, and liefore he will at
tain sufficient mental development to
comprehend them! It i- not desirable
that the labor of acquisition should Ix*
entirely relieved, that the child should
come into the inheritance of a noble and
beautiful language without any effort
of his own, for this very effort is essen
tial to his iuteilectual growth. Never
theless, if his parents and teacher* shall
manage judiciously, the little student
may IK- spared a large -hare of the laiior
ordinarily involved, and occupy him
self, instead, with the pleasant gather
ing of sjsdl# in field* already near. The
narrow routine of school iife |M-rmit*
pupils to learn little more than the
rudiments of expression—merely the
names and uses of tools, not skill in
using them. This they can acquire
only by free conversation at home and
in society. If they hear in constant and
appropriate use from their elder* the
hard words they h|h>ll and define at
school, unconsciously these words will
pass into the texture of their thoughts
and 011 fitting occasions drop from their
tongues. Nay, more than this; if they
are accustomed to hearing the (test lan
guage at the fireside and in the nursery,
they will be prepared, by a partial
familiarity with the higher forms of ex
pression, to execute their tasks at school
with a readiness and success that other
wise thev could not |x>sibly command.
Every discerning teacher can sec in the
pupil just the grade and amount of in
telligence in the home of which the
pupil is the representative, and in
ninety nine cases out of every hundred
it will lie found that the premium
scholar comes from the refined and cul
tivated household, and tiiat the parent
tar more than the teacher deserves the
credit for the honor his child has won.
Long before children understand the
technical meaning of a vast number of
words, they can gather from the man
ner in which they are used a tolerably
correct idea of their significance, so that
a child of ten, who might not be able to
define the words used in conversation
by bis elders in the social circle, would
yet gather from that conversation a
great many ideas, vague in a degree,
but ever growing clearer and more de
finite, until, by and by, he would with
out eflort express them in the phrase he
has been accustomed to hear. For this
reason it is an admirable plan to permit
children to be silent listeners at the
table and in the parlor when guests are
present ami Intelligent comet ntlon I

four quarts of oats, after eating which
he max have four or Ave puiimis of hay.
If guiiig out early, feed six quarts of

festation of ga|>e in his fowls ap|H-ars,
he confines his chickens in a IMIX, one

the bird, and places a course cotton or
linen cloth over the top. I'pon this he
places air slacked lime, and taps the
cloth suflielentlv to cause the lime to
fall through, this lime dust the fowl
inhales and is made to sneeze, and
in a short time the cause of the gapes is
thrown out in the form of a slimy mass
of worms that had accumulated in the
windpipe and smaller air vessels. This
remedy he considered sujierior to any

"As l went up the new Massa roar!
the other day 1 met a ragged, stout and
rather dirty woman, with a larg- shal
Iw basket on her bead. In it tar her
husband, a large man. though, I tliink,
a little abbreviated a# to hi# legs. Tbe
woman asked alms. Talk of Diogenes
in his tub! How must the world look
to a man in a basket, riding about on
his wife's head? She put him down
la-side the road, in the sun, and almost
iu danger of |a#sing vehicles. 1 sup
josr the affectionate creature thought
if he got a new injury in this way his
value iu the beggar-market would be
increased.
"This custom of carrying one's hus
band on tlte head in a basket has some
thing to recommend it, and is an ex
hibition ol faith on the one hand and
of devotion on the other that is seldom
met with. It is at least a new commen
tary on tlte apo-tolic remark that the
man is the head of the woman.

the liver, removing all obstructions, re- j
lax the gall bladder, the bile starts
freely, and the liver is soon relieved.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic l a gentle

food and prevents souring. It assists
the digestion by toning up the stomach

and the first salutation Is, "How are

reply frequently is, "Oh, 1 am well,
with the exception of a cold." Most
persons lightly regard a cold. Reader,
do you know that a cold is one of the
most dangerous of maladies! A cold not
only clogs up the nores of the entire
system, and retards circulation, but it
is productive of Cstarrh, which is quite
apt to lead to Consumption. "Ota," you
say, "it is nothing but a cold in my
head." True; but that cold is really a
mild form of Catarrh, and if not arrest
ed in its course will become chronic.
Catarrh is one of the most disagreeable,
offensive affections in the catalogue of
diseases. The passage to the nose is ob
structed, the sense of stneil impaired,
and tiiero is a disagreeable sensation of
pressure in the head. In the more ad
vanced stages, there is a discharge hav
ing an offensive odor. If the disease be
allowed to continue in its course, thick,
hard incrustations will form in the
head, the bones of which sometimes be-
come softened and break away in place*.
