The equality desired by these sects is dtclared contrary to Scriptures. There are distinctions between angels in heaven, a fortiori muft there be distinctions between men upon earth. Poverty, of which Socialism is impatient, is corrected by the Church, which, besides her own charities, enjoins alms-giving on the rich, to whom she thus reconciles the poor.

The house of l'riara might, in the opinion of Dr. Sohliemann, have had wore than one hundred rooms, and he thinks it was originally five or sven stories high , One of the rooms now contains a jar so large that it is nearly filled by it. Four of such jars have been found by him, each measuring live and a half feet high, and four feet seven inches broad. The large number of jars found on the ground lioor induces the belief that it waa used for store rooms. The four huge jars contain a number of of terra cotta vasos , of which also manv line specim ons were found in the briokcolored ashes with which the rooms are filled. Dr. Schltemann thinks the most remarkable thing in the ancient mansion is that hero and there beneath it the walls of a still more ancient building are found. He ascribes them to the first city erected on the site of the famous city. All the fragments of pottery which he has seen in the rooms of the mansion immediately beneath thu Trojan stratum have, he says, on both sides a beautiful lustrous red, black or brown color, M'hich he has never found anywhere except in tbo strata ofthe first city. He is further of opinion that tho great circuit wall was not built by the people which inhabited Troy at the time of tho catastrophe, but by their predecessors. Among the remarkable objects discovered recently, Dr. Sclilieraann, In his letter to the Timci (London), mentions the remains of an embryo child, which a physician thinks to he only four months old.

fleeting MmilHUuk. - i, It has been profoundly remarked, that the true way to tell a toadetool from a jwushroo fa to eat it. If you die it was tMiieol, ff yon live, It waajt mushroom. A simmr method is employed in the selection of husbands; marry him, if he kills you he was a had husband ; if he makes you happy he is a good one. There is really no other criterion. As Dr, Samuel Johnson remarked the pref of the pudding is in the eating thereof. Some young men thi t seem unexceptionable, indeed very desirable, as long as they are single, are perfectly horrid as soon as they are married. All the latent brute thero is ia the heart oomes out as soon as a sensitive and delicate being seeks her hapEinees in his companionship. The oneyraoon lasts a very short time, tho receptions and the rounds of parties are soon over, and then the two sit down and mske home happy. If she has married a society man, he will soon begin to get bored , he will yawn and go to sleep on the sofa. Then he will take his hat and go down to the club to sec the boys, and perhaps not come homo till morning. If she has married a man engrossed in business he will bo fagged out when he ceraes home. He may be a sickly man that she must nurse, and morose man that she must seek to cheer, a drunken man that she must sit up for, and violent man that she fears, a fool who she soon learns to despise, a vulgar man for whom she must apologize in short, there are thousands of ways of being bad husbands, and very few ways of being good ones. And the worst of it is, that the poor silly women aro apt to admire in single men the very traits that make bad husbands, and look with contempt or ridicule upon those quiet virtues that make home happy. Men with very littlo personal beauty or style, often make the wife happy ami sometimes quite the reverse. Tho number of ways of being a bad husband is almost as great as the number of ways of being ugly. No one can toll from the demeanor of a singlo man what sort of a husband he will bo. Meanwhile she must marry somebody. Eat it; if you die it was a toadstool, if you live it was a mushroom. Baltimore Every Saturday. American (irl Diplomatists. It is a singular fact that fifteen of the ladies connected with the present Diplomatic Corp9 at Washington arc American girls whose beauty and diplomacy oaptured distinguished husbands. Among the number are wives of the French, Italian, Guatemalan and Turkish ministers and many others of leaser rank, including Mrs. Young Wing, of tho Chinese Legation, who was a Miss Bnrtlett, of Connecticut. In tho Diplomatic Corps of Europe thero was also several American ladies, such ,n the wife of tho Italian Minister t tho Hague and others. Whether American women have a peculiar penchant for diplomacy, or diplomatist for them, is a difficult question to decide. At all events, diplomacy is a career for which our women seem to be admirably adapted. They have also broken down the oxcltisivonofet of hereditary aristocracy, and some of them are connected with the oldest noble families of England and tho Continent, l'roverbal as is their beauty, their natural grace and dignity of manner aud their intelligence are no loss striking FhiUuklphia Press. To keep in health, wo must olnsy tho law of our own being not that of our neighbor or of an ideally perfect organization as laid down by so-called physiological science. All attempts to make ourselves over into something that strikes us as more desirable, results in disease What wo may do with profit is to actively co-operate with the law of evolution that has brought us to bo what wo are, and is carrying us toward higher development on tho same line.
