Little rills make wider streamlets, Stteamlets swell the river's flow; Rivers join the mo~ntain billows, Onward, onward, as they go.l Life is made of smallest fragldents, Shade and suushine, work and play; So may we, with greatest profit, Learn a little every day. T'iny see~is make boundless harvests, Drops of rain compose the showers, Seconds make'the flying minutes, And the minutes make the hoursI Let us hasten, then, and catch them As they pass us on the way; And with honest, true endeavor Learn a little every day. Let us read .some striking passage, Cult a verge from every page; Here a line and there a sentence, 'Gainst the lonely time of age I At our work or by the wayside, While the sunshine's making hay; Thus we may by help of study Learn a little every day. I Lawyers and Dectors in England. A curious phase of professional life th in England is the arbitrary classifiea bt tion of men engaged in the same pro ie fesaion. A barrister most be a gen ill tlemen, a solicitor may be but an at a-- torney can't be. An attorney cannot 4 Fr communicate directly with a barrister I e -he must do so only through a solic- I s, itor. The barristers whio are in real ity entirely dependent upon the at- i 1- torneys, consider it wholly unpardon . able for one of their number to mak e any social or professional advance to ward an attorney. The attorneys re venge themselves by the most shame less flirtations with half a dozen bar risters, and then withdrawing with the utmost coolness and leaving them conspicuously in the lurch. One of e the most amusing things in the world a is to see an attorney with a green bag t enter a room full of barristers; the i _ effort to appear unconcerned is very ` much like that of a row of young la- i dies when a gentlemen appears who i, evidently means to ask one ofithem to dance. The etiquet of the medical profession in England is even moi' d unique. There are two distinct'sec- 0 tions-the general practitioners and the consulting physiciaus and sur- 6 geons. The fonitcr charge very smal .feessupply their oWn medicines, and " rre ci l Mr. 1early all the afitlte- It cary shops are conducted .by this class b of doctors. The consulting physicians * or surgeons are called Drs., and the invariable rule is that the regulation o fee-one guinea, shall be paid by the A patient as soon as the visit or consul iation is over. This comes partic- P larly hard in the mnalades nnagiaiires, as who of course require the services of the best doctors, and are compelled to. pay tremendously for their whistle, Is Many persons offer a pound note or a sovereign as the fee, which is one shil- ti ling less. This the doctors character- bi ize by a forcible vulgarism. "'Giving se the goose without the giblets." hi -THm laws relating to the election to of the President of the United Statos re the election returns and the ascertain- dt ing and declaring theO resedt are con- H, ceded to be defective, and to require th revision. The duty of providing the requisite amendments to these laws is Cil imperatively enjoined upon the pres- ea eat Congrsib. The circumstanei fa' which endangered the peace of the a -country on account of the defects in nit thepe laws a very few years since, are '.fresh in the recollections 6f the peo- be ple. After tholPresidential election of 1876, the country was brought to the I very brink of civil war'on accoiji: op t thbes defective lawas and not only. this, but the candidate who received a tir large -majority of th. voteo of the poe -'1 ple; was ruled out, and - the minooity no candidate' was-declared selected, and P1 actually inaugurated - as President. Even this lisnot all; the candidate who du was fairly entitled to the 'eleetioo by ii the electors in the electoral college was cheated out of hll election by ain traordinary ps~gti co'iufiton re "fueing a oaIdet mid ecide Upon fraudulent changes made in the retrns of hisaeleotion. -This was tionistrous al fraud apon the legal voice of a a jor- hi .ity of the people,. a fraud upon the ai Constitution; and a Crime agalnastthe I psiajesty of th6 people f the United la Shall this Congr balt and palter abixut modes of procedure, and leave these most defeotive election lawsth without the-nesemary amendmentas be6 We shall see.

Nor do they stop Imre, ret .boostraqgthen the. system, giving it ohs tone and action, rendering it more-ca- ma pable of resisting all future attacks. -IT Is now stated that Guiteau wrote tile Morey letter.

The Boston Herald tiinks the ep ithets used by husbands and wife to ward each other are an unconscious revelation of the true nature of the affection subsisting between them. ay; It says: When a woman addresses her partner as "Hubby," or "My , dearest hubby," he may possiblj ,like it if he din bear it, but most men wo'uld like to hear almost any thing erse. Onelfears' that different terms of address may follow, which represent another mood.' On the other hand, when a man addresses his spouse as "Wifey," it Is alm~et impossible to , avoid thinking of "Doggy," and there is an npleas. ant feeling of sickness at' 1ei-ing the word. But when one hears a - husband address .his wife .as d. 'Queenie," which is said tli be the word used by one of the most dis-i ° tingulshed authors of New England in addressing his better half, it . seems as if te uwife had herlproper t. place in hit affectiong'Thei word is ot expressive; it grants the superior er ity of woman It enithrones. her ft o- his home. aQite in eontrast is the J- rjserved tone in many households. t- It is always -'Mr. Smithand "Dr. 4 D Smith," and one fears constantly that he may distiurb the dignity of a Sthat house. Such severe propriety, e- however, cn hardly endure the 'in novations of children. It is "ma th ma" and "papa" which softens one's w feelings, and then they grow~ to the of more respectable terms, "fatbea" Id and "mother," until the wife .calls g the husbands "father," and'the~us- t 1e band calls his wife "mother."-- d '9 Where there are no children, aihd it ti is always "Mr." and "Mrs." there i l is a skeleton in the H;ousehold, and i 1 love has escaped through' the 4i. d, dow, like Noa ' ovr, in search of a new life..
