ReqalrrmcntH of the Stage.

Miss Olive Logan in a letter to the Times defends the remarks she made about the stage in her 'speech on Wednesday night of the Equal Rights Association at New York. She says

I referred the other night to decent young women who arc not celebrities —merely honest, modest girls, WIIOSQ parents have left them the not very desirable heritage of the stage, and Who find it difficult to obtain any oth er employment, being uneducated foxany other. When these girls go into a theater to apply for a situation now, they iind that the requirements of managers are expressed in the following questions:

First. "Is your hair dyed yellow Second. "Are your legs, arms and bosom symmetrically formed, and are you willing to expose them V°

Third. "Can you sing brassy songs, dance the can-can, and wink ut men, and give utterance to disgusting half words which mean whole actions V"

Fourth. "Are you acquainted with any rich men who will throw you flowers, and send you presents, and keep afloat dubious rumors concerning vour chastity V"

Fifth. "Are you willing to appear to-night, and every night, amid the glareof gas-lights and before the gaze of thousands of meu, in this pair of satin breeches ten inches long, without a vestige of drapery on your person?" "If you can answer these questions atlirmatively, we will give you a situation. If not, there's the. way to! the door."

For ni3'self, 1 left the stage four years ago to pursue literature. With writing and lecturing I am able to earn a decent livelihood, lam vervi thankful 1 can do so, but my own pri vate atfairs are not my sole concern. and 'what see, I say."

Why Women are l'lTcions.

It has long been known that "(lis-1 t:mcc lends onclmntmonttothc view," and on thi.y ground alone some wri-! ters have sensibly advised women who wished to be valued highly to "make them selves pearce." But the elleet of literal .scarcity on this article has been first elaborated in the Westminster Review for October, which shows that women have more influence and higher standing in proportion as men exceed them in number. It gives the following singular illustration, if it may be called such At one time woman could hardl}' walk through the streets of San Francisco without having every one pause to gaze on her, and a child was so rare that once at the theater in the same city where a woman had taken her in lant, when it began to cry, just as the orchestra began to play, a man in the pit cried out, 'Stop those fiddles, and let the baby cry. I haven't heard such a sound for ten years!' The audicnce applauded this sentiment: the orchestra stopped, and the baby continued its performance amid hiibounded enthusiasm.

THE Paris correspondent of the Pall Mall Gazette presents the following picture of the crisis in France We have here a large quantity of dangerous compounds lying about in tearful juxtaposition. These are the occult brain-workings of an almost! omnipotent ruler, at once the most I irresolute and most obstinate of men the implacable hatred of an opposi-! tion numerically weak, but most formidable in its intellectual strength, and the coveous, sensual aspirations of a large popular class totally ignorant of the first laws of political economy, and yet, by national temperament, irresistibly inclined to systematic theories, generalization and blind logic. When will these elements come into collision or may they not explode any day by accidental concussion or, less than that, ty mere atmospheric influences

A couplc of Evansville doctors, named Price and Bierbower, while returning home, Sunday evening, got stuck in a mud ho'e, and the horse,in his eflorts to flounder through, threw them, with their trunk and carpetsack, in to the hole, where they would have drowned but for the prompt assistance of the citizens near by. Damages, abont $100. Evansville needs some gravel roads..

WHEN* exposed to the air, butter, as is well known, soon changes its condition. It first gets rancid on the surface and then throughout. In this condition it is dangerous as an article of food, for its acids attack copper vessels and so poison their contents, and should be rigidly excluded from consumption.

During 1868, the United States furnished Great Britain with 12,960,579 busbies of wheat and flour, being 43 per cent, of the total supply from foreign sources.
