Alt I here it is, the sliding rail That marks the old remembered spot— The gap that struck our school-boy trail, The crooked path across the lot. It left the rood by school and church, A penciled shadow, nothing more, That parted from the silver birch, And ended at the fartarhoase door. No lino or compass placed its plan; With frequent bends to loft M. right, in aimless, wayward curves it ran, But always kept tho door in sight. • The gabled porch, the - viOadbilte The broken millstono'dt ' Though many a road may stretch between, The truant.child can see them still, No reeks across the pathway lie, • No fallen trunk is o'er it thrown, And yet it wind; we know not why, And turns as if for tree or stone. Perhaps some lover trod the way, With shaking knee or leaping heart— And se, it often runs astray With sinuous sweep or sudden start. Or one, perchance, with clouted brain, From some unholy banquet reeled, And since, our devious steps maintain Ms track across the trodden field. Nay, deem not thus—no earth• born will Could ever trace aJhultless line; Our truest steps are human still, To walk unswerving were divine I Truants from love, we dream , of wrath ; Oh, rather lot us trust the more I Through all the wanderings of the path, We still can see our Father's door. How Prairie Women go to Bed, Some time since we published graphic description, from a new popu lar work, of how young a woman goes to bed, which dainty sketch was matched soon after by some ungra cious scribe depicting the manner in which a young man "all of• the latest style" performs a similar act. The Fort Harker correspondent of the St. Louis "Democrat" now supplies a com panion picture, as faithful and homely as an "interior" by Teniera, how a newly married younr , p woman on the Kansas prairie went to bed, and how an old woman and the "men folks" fol lowed her example. We were an unwilling spectator of' the scene herein narrated. Far from home, or from any civilized "diggings," were compelled to seek shelter 'at •ft ranuhe. In this rancho,; built of ad obes with a mild - roof, •lived an Old gray headed man and his "ole 'Oman." It muit not be supposed that this cou ple wore infirm, unable to move about far from it; they were no less active and ton times more laborious than the young man and the young woman who lived under the same roof. The rancho itself cotsisted of a single room, eight by twelve. Ono large stove stood in the centre of the room, and occupying precisely one-half of the ranche were two beds, one for each couple. The old woman, who was undoubtedly the mistress of the' ranehe, gladly consent ed to give us lodging. On taking a weeping look around this humble abode, we doubted her ability to make good her word. Now,tho house appeared well supplied with furniture suitable for a rancho. There was a large table ; there wore largo tin pans brimful of milk (for the ranch man had nine cows,) piled one upon another; there was a cupboard plentifully supplied with huge loaves of broad, delicious yellow butter and pitchers of genuine cream, loads of dishes and crockery, knives and forks; there was a chest of draw ors, or bureau, well supplied with fam ily linen, and household apparel. Un der the table already mentioned wore three tame fawns; under the stove was a cat; under the old lady's bed was . a huge mastiff; under everybody's feet were about a dozen chickens, chirping, incessantly, while around them moved the mother hen, anal:ling continually, and before the door, strutting with a lordly mein, was a magnificent Shang hai cock. We have thus far been care• fill to give a correct idea of the families that lived in the rancho in which the old woman said we should find a lodg ing. Ten o'clock at night had arrived, and we began to observe symptoms of uneasiness in the old lady. We had been chatting continually from the hour the chickens went to - ` roost over head among the branches that sup ported the mud roof—from the time the dog and cat, and the fawns had laid to rest for the night, and it was now time for the family to retire. The young woman had been sitting in a corner, listening attentively to our en tertainhig stories,bitt on observing the weariness of her mother-in-law, she rose and retreated towards her bed. After a preliminary haw, and a slight hem, she turned her back to us, and first loosed the apron, the dingy strings of which encircled a form inclined to embonpoint. This young lady then took off her dress, which was ,made of calico, and perfectly innocent of the wash tub, and dropped it on the top of the apron lying at her feet. Then sitting down on an empty seep box, which stood at the head of the bed, she commenced to take off her shoes. She first lifted one lusty leg over the other, and a short space of' time the shoe ell with a thump on the floor. She then rolled the black woolen stock ing off, and elaiibited to our view a foot white as snow, .though flat and thick. In the same manner she an dresSed the other leg, and after rub bing her fingers between the toes, 'she stood hp and prepartid'iO pike off her surplus clothing, whieh she performed in a jiffy. At her feat encircling her was a heap of olothirig ; down the coverlet, after putting a frill'ed night cap`on,she stepped in the bed, laid her fall length, '.covered' herielf, I , „........,„...... , (r':---' . ..:....;';:; . 0):::: - ' ' .- -1..;;.

It must not be supposed for one instant that we look ed at her, oh no ! we conversed with the old lady and the two men, but in the meantime we were helplessly com 7 pellod to watch the interesting pro ceedings from a corner of our "eye in order to be able to give this accurate account. We now rose and left the room, followed by the two mon, with, whom we keptup a lively conversation while the old 10y, who had closed thd door, disrobed herself. On hearing a a voice from the inside asking a ques tion about some cows, we entered again the precincts of . !he ranche j that was a signal*,whfilh the - Od. reedy understood; the old lad} lay night capped in bed, with her face turned to the brown adobe wall. On, the floor near the stove our bed had been made. A solitary lamp lit the apartment. In a short time we )vero in bed—the old lady asked, "Row do you find yourself Mister Man?" We replied, "Perfectly easy, ma'am." We now watched the men .undressing.—. Standing at their respective beds, they first took off their boots- 7 60n" coats and vests; at this stage of the proceed ings the young man bleW the lamp out; and in a second we heard the panta loons thrown off, a creaking of the beds followed, and the household were at rest. Three men, two women, one dog, one eat, three young ,antelopes and a dozen chickens in a house Bxlo, lighted and ventilated by two small loop-holes. Such, .reader, is a Western .ranche. Next clay, before departing East, the old lady commis sioned us to bring her a pair of shoos for herself (No.' 8,) seven yards of do.; mestic and'a novel called'the "Prairie Flower," which commission' we exe cuted to her entire satisfaction. - MORM6NIgM, A Party of New York Ladies Call on Mrs. Brigham Young, jr.. at the St. Nicholas Ilotel---The Conversation. To the Editor of the World : As American woman,• and as"studonts of the social problem of woman's mission, it was with much pleasure that we learned of the arrival in this city of Brigham Young, jr., and one of his wives. r. "Now," we said among ourselves, "now we may hear the phenomenon of Mormonism by people who, at least, know what they are talking about." "But ho 4 get:acquainted ?"'asked ono of the party who was young and tim orous and pretty, and needed not to have troubled herself about woman's mission, for it was evident that her's would be what her mother's was be fore her—namely, to be early courted and happily married, and then to take housekeeping, and so on to the end of the chapter. But the rest of us—who, having failed in that early instilled ambition after a trial of several years' atnading—were not to be daunted in ascertaining beforehand our probable or possible fate by such a bagatelle as the difficulty of getting acquainted. Indeed,we saw no difficulty in the mat ter. Conventionalities were made for common place people. People who had attained the intellectual altitude implied in taking an interest in a social problem were not going to submit to rules that did not include them nor ap ply them. And, besides, in visiting, we would be paying them a compli ment; for which any •of the numerous Petroleum family on the avenue would give us in net cash twenty-five per cent. on all the available product of their Pennsylvania estates for the cur rent year, and consider it but a trifle for the immense favor of social recog nition.- The party was stopping at the St. Nicholas Ilotel. raking. seats' in the drawiag•rooneswe sent up our cards to "Mr. and Mrs. Young," fearing if wo gave the lady any , recognition which her lord did not share that we would not be revived. The party was out, but was expected to return before long; indeed, was overdue already, and we were invited upstairs lAq one of the pri. vate, parlors to await their return. After waiting half an hour little whis. pors began to circulate between us as to the possibility of Mrs. Young . never returning. We had heard so much of the desire of Mormon wives to escape wo just suspected she might avail her ,self of the sweet security of city streets to slip off from her share of a husband. One lady suggested that we might as well go, and then mentioned that wo would know as much if We stayed, fur if she really did disappear that woad be proof that to be one of a number of one man's wives was not the true des. tiny of woman. While we awaited with scientific dis. interestedness fOr the decisive Curti in the wheel of time, a lady entered, the room, and was announced by hor ser vant as Mrs. Young, at which we ex changed greetings. The conversation commenced by Mrs. Young saying that when she received the cards she tried to recall Miss X., Miss.Y., and Miss Z., but they remained stubbornly un known, and then she wondered•who among her young lady. friends of ioug ago had concealed their identity be neath tho pseudonym° of Mrs, .13C and Mrs. L., but then, she added, it is often as pleasant to mali.-e neW'friends as to meet 914 ones. One of the ladies remarked that she supposed in lier part of the country a lady's maiden name was never lost sight of in 'marriage. To which Mrs. Young replied; never- 7 -if it was we would' have to resort to numerals to make conversation possible: ' There ! we'were actually on delicate ground, and that in the easiest and Most grace ful' way possible. We watched the lady closely While she spoke, hut could TERMS, $2,00 a year in advance. detect no soreness, no shrinking from the contemplation of numerals.of pin; rality. Indeed, she, was laughing gaily as she drew a little sketchy picture of what it would be in Utah. if each lady followed the gentile custom of taking her husband's name to the ignoring of her own. Wo watched her with the most scrutinizing air, possible with po liteness, and had to admit to ourselves, again and again, that her gaiety was genuine. It could not be levity that inclined her to gaiety; her face, man nor and conversation precluded any thought of that. She looked about thirty years old, but possibly was not over twenty-five—her life as a pioneer, as a fugitive, as a wife, and the mother of seven children, giving her ; an eXpe rience which might-hav_olierlirOlc;fifty... years old', but which succeeded, Owing to her natural bubyaney of heart, in making her look only thirty. .She was dressed in a striped gray and white travelling suit, and looked fresh and cool as a dew drop, which was n reve lation in itself, for the day was the sul triest of the season, and it almost made one faint to look at the hot, fixy, over dressed women—we cannot call them ladies, for ladies know instinctively how to dress—Who were promenading' Broadway. Her figure was lithe and elegant-looking; her face very _strong in repose, and very mobile' in eonver- ' elation; her mariner a union of timidity and equipoise that was very pleasing. Altogether she looked lady-like and motherly, and pro-eminently Now this wife qustion being the one we are particularly interested in fact the one object of our visit, we made the hest of our opportunity of putting questions, "Now, Mrs. Young, did you,ever see a wife Kea*, truly, unmistakably .happy who Nail to share her husband's affoctions with another woman or other women ?" we asked, in a tone of groat eagerness, She play fully said something about real, true, unalloyed, unmitigated,happiness be ing a rare and exceptional thing. Was she a diplomatist? was that the way of turning our attention from the subject in hand? Further conversa tion proved not. She asked, "Aro all the married gentlemen of your acquain-. Mine blind to all the beatify lying about them, or are they proof against it, and do they all live heautiful exclu sive liven?" Of course we admitted the little polygamic tendencies of gen tlemen in society—how could we dO otherwise, when it is so well known ? She asked. "Do their wives know it?" "Yes, sometimes it comes to light; of ten they suspect it when it is not pro ven; but then what they don't know don't hurt them." "Do you think that ?" We think that everythingthat hurts the husband hurts a true wife, and none of you will surely Maintain that it does not injure a man morally to bo guilty of deceit.--,of Systematic and sustained falsehood. We think that it would affect oven his children's children, and his furthest neighbors, for not only has every act its rays of influence, but his moral attitude is af fecting others for good or evil, whether he sleeps or whether he plows. Now, inasmuch as man is not exclusive in his tastes—arid it is for wise reasons that ho is not so—we must riot try to make him conform to our idea of his needs or his destiny at the risk of ma king him so weak as to give in to us, or so mean as to deceive us." "But man mustn't make us conform to his ideas of our needs and our destiny," said the pretty little miss Whom we re ferred to before. "Man does not do it, my dear," replied Mrs. Young. "Wo man's sphere is -destined by nature. Tho civilizations of the world aro unan imous on that point, no matter on what else they may differ; her sphere is power; her destiny to replenish the earth: This, if women would only realize it, is a high and noble destiny. It is the ono ambition of the Memnon wife to bo a mother io Israel. Our chil dren aro all pledges of love to our hus bands, and jewels in our crowns of Honor as wives." "But, aro not the wives of ono man often jealous of each other ?" asks the irrepressible young miss. "Sometimes;_ but it is not a feature of our domestic life," madame replies. "The wives of each household are as sisters—sisters in family and In faith. They some , times indulge in little playful rivalries as to who will get the first kiss, crtvlto can pull him or coax him away from the others; but as a rule they always give precedence to the first wife. The ladies of every gentleman's'household aro not only affectionate one to anoth: er, but they are courteous' to a point of etiquette not often witnessed among the ladies of our best society here." Ono of the ladies asked if their po liteness was not the result of despair— if they were 'not so "subdued" that ac quiescence to everything or anything was natural. She replied that they all entered the. state of matrimony knowingly; that no force or persuasion, beyond what lovers were went to em ploy all the world over, was ever brought to bear on any one; that the demeanor of women was about the I same after that it was before marriage; if it was subdued first, it, as a rule, con tinued so, if the woman remained with out childroia; it' she became a mother, giro was very likely to assort herself. 'That life in a community of industry , like theirs' was not just the one calcu lated fOr sentimental moodiness and subdued airs: They, were too particular for that; and besides the only women who might at all feel themselves injured were the first wives of converts, to whom the thing was strange, and who, preparatory to leav ing their own country, made their hus bands promise that they would never take unto themselves any other wives.

' A most ludicrous scene transpired iq a place not a:thousand miles froin the city of Lo'uisville, one night recently, which, though a little annoying to the parties immediately concerned, ',Was yet so innocent and Tunny that we can refrain from giving the general out lines, suppressing names of coarse, - Two sprightly and beautiful young ladies were visiting their cousin, anoth: er sprightly and' beautiful young lady, who, like her guests, was of that hap py age which turns everything into, fun and merriment. If the truth were told we fear that we would have to rot cord the fact that these three young' misses were just alittle bit fast. They wore fond of practical jokes, and were continually playing all sorts of Mad, pranks with each other. All three Oc cupied a room on the ground floor, and cuddled up together in ene bed. - Two of the young ladies attended a party on the night in question, and did not get home till pelf pitsttwelve'o'olock at night. As it was late they eoncluded not to disturb the household, so they quietly stepped into theirroom throngl3 the low open window. In about half an hour after they haul left for the party a young Methodist minister called at the bons° where they were staying and craved a right's ledg ing, which of course was, cheerfully granted. As ministers always hime the best of everything, the old lady put him to sleep in the best room, and th 4 Young lady (Fannie) whO had'not gone to the party \ WaS entrusted to the duty of sitting up for the absent ones and of informing them of the change of rooms. She took up her post in the parlor, r,r4 as the night was sultry, sleep overcame her, and she departed on an excursion to the land of dreams. We will now return to the young la._ dies who bad gono intq their ,rdorn through the window. By the dim light of the moon-beams n's they struggled, through the curtains, the young ladies wore enabled to descry the outline of Fannie (as they supposed) ensconced in the middle of the bed. They saw more, to-wit—a pair of boots. • The truth: flashed. upon them both at once. .Tliey saw it all. Fannie had set them in the room to give them good scare. They put their heads together and determin, ed to turn-the tables on her. .flrese'fit lji they disrobed, and stealthily as cats they took. their_Positien e`ach o . ido of the bed. At the' given sign both jump ed into bed, one on each side of. the un consciosu parson, screaming, ‘.ob,what, a man!" They gave the bewildered minister such a .promiscumis hugging and tousling as few poisons are ablp to brig of in the course of a lifetime: The noise of this proceeding awoke the old.lady, who was sleepi'ng in an adjoining room. he comprehended the situation at once, and rushing to the room she 'opened the door ancl.q 7 elairced! "Hy God, gale, it is i. man; ) it is a roan sure enough !" There was ono prolonged, consolida ted scream; a flash of muslin through the door, and all was over. The best thing of the joke is the min ister took the whole 4 hin g in earnest. He would listen to no apologies the ola lady could make for the girls. Ho would hear no excuse; but he solemnly folded his clerical robe's around hiu and silently stole away. - 'Query—was he mad at the girls, or. —.at the old woman? - ' 1.1 A LI, Tlci:x•rs; - MLA LABELS, &C.:
