A Paragraph for the Ladieg.
With the advent of spring, every wo*
man wvho has taste and culture is cx
pected to conform to the deseription of
that woman who "looketh to the ways
of her household." Some seem to think~
this consists wholly in house-cleaning,
carpet-shaking, bug- killing, pantaloon'
patching, dress-turning,or general-over
turning. It is not so however. To put
the house in order other things are in
order. A nicely furnished table is one
essential ; fine china, crockery an<
glass-ware are charming aids to the en
joyment of a meal, the pheasing effeelc
on the eye acting with a satisfying sense
on the stomach, and one crosses leg
under the table-that is the male feed
er-without a single thought as to the~
price of corn. Bedlrooms and kitchenm
also need some article, the one foi
aornment as well as use, and the othei

WASHINGTON, D. C.,
April 2, 1879.
The Legislative appropriation bill
vs yesterday presented to the House.
!has the amendments as to juries,
rceenling the test oath provision, and
2:m also the modified supervisor repeal
xetionI. There is little probability of
debate on this bill at present, as gl of
.ls week, and perhaps mwech more,
Will be taken up in discussion of the
.rmy appropriation bill.
On this last named bill, or, rather,
.: he amendment forbidding the use
of troojps at the polls, there is now go
ogon in the House a highly interest
i" debate. Yesterd ay Representative
*elford, of Colorado, made a long and
bite speech. There were also speeches
'a: Messrs. Chalmers and Muldrow,
41 Mssissippi, Mr. Hurd, of Ohio,
.d Mr. Frye, of Maine. Some 70
:::bers have notified the Speaker of
cir wish to address the House on the
'ject On Saturday Mr. Garfield
a. d al his ingenuity and disingen
uoAuness ini attempting to show that a
p;roposition to attach to an appropria
-ion bill any general legislation was
;evolutionary. Of course he knew
better, and he had many times, with
i: iarty associates, done exactly what
hic.ow denounced. But of all of our
Irublic men few have a greater reputa
iloni for insincerity than Mr. Garfield.
The Senate yesterday did well in
pasing a bill appropriating a small
-tu of money for the purpose of pur
etlgor building a vessel for the
pur2ipose of disinfecting vessels coming

;1ow fever or other contagious dis
es.The bill was first drawn to di
reL a contract with Prof. Gamgee,
before mentioned in this correspond

lists to all. It has long been felt

Pe&ople generally will be glad of the
(JIrmfation of Francis A. Walker as
Superintendent of the Census. Mr.
Y'ker is a Republican, but does not
2 his politics interfere with the dis
;~eo of his public duties. He was
.ung the first and most earnest civil
ice~ reformers and to his credit it
:;i:uld be remembered that while in
&;ii':e here lhe did not permit his civil
service ideas to be the mere jest that
.ir. Hayes and his officers make of
mhm ed he has shown himself
that the jury did not believe that the
ex-Senator proiised marriage, or that
his uharactr was so notoriously bad
that the woii:iu who believed hia was
not of sound mind w.:d was therefore
incapable of being a party to a con
tract.
Meetings are being held here by
colored mwn for the furtherance of
Senator Windom's plan of negro col

evening, the Senator was madc Presi.

fur the purpose. If nec ma ji.1ge
from what intelligent colored mi here
say, Senator V. is rapidly stealing
away Gencl. Granit's Southern strenth
as a Presidential cadidate. The
Southern Republicans are not very
formidable at. elections, but they have
influence in noulinmaiing couventionls,
and Ge . Ofrant don't you forget it.
