A Wood Word for Romping (Url*.
Most women have a dread of these.
Mothers would rather their little daugh
ter?! were called anything els? than
romps. .T/hyy say to" them, "bc very
quiet now, my dears, don't run or jump,
try and be little huhes." As if a healthy
child could bu still; as if it could take
time to walk, or step over what came in
its way; ?LS ?f it could fold its hands in
its lan, when its little heart is so brimful
of tickle. It is absurd and wrong, be
cause it Ls unnatural. Childron, girls as
well as boys, need exercise ; indeed they
must have it, to bc kept! a healthy con
dition. They need it to expand their
chests, strengthen their muscles, tone
their nerves, develop themselves general
ly. And tins exorcise must be out of
doors, too. It is not enough lu have
calisthenics in thc nursery or parlor.
They need to be out in the sunshine, nut
in the wind, out in the grass, out in the
woods, out of doors somewhere, if it be
uu bigger place than thc common or
5>nrk. Suppose they du tan their pretty
aces. Helter be as brown as a b.-rry,
und have the pulse quick and strong,
than white ns a lily and complain of cold
feet and headache Suppose they do
tear their ?dollies ; suppose they do wear
out their shoes ; it don't try a mother's
patience and strength half KO much to
walch and merni as it docs to watch night
after night a querulous sick child, and it1
don't drain a father's pocket-book ?taifas
quick to buy siloes as it does to pay doe
tori' bills.
Indeed, wo don't believe there is
prettier picture in ntl tho wide world
than that of a little girl balancing herself I
on the topmo*'. rail (?fun old rigr^ig fence,
her bonnet on one arm and a basket ot
blackberries i on thc other, her curls
streaming mit in the wind, or rippling
over her flushed cheeks, her apron half I
torn from her waist, and dangling to her
fectt> her fingers stained with thc berries
she had picked, and 'uer Ups with tiloso
Mile had eaten. Mother, meiner don't
scold that little creature when shu comes
and puts her basket on tho table and
looks ruefully at the rent in thc now
ginghams apron, and at tho little barn
toes sticking out of tho hut pair of shoes.
Wash off her hot face and soiled hands,
mid give her a bowl of cool milk ami
light bread, and when she has eaten her
fill nnd got rested, make her sit down be
side you and tell what she has seen ofT ]
in these meadows and woods.
.Hov heart will bc full of beautiful
OjJrfa?-^bc sound o? the wind, tho full of I
MieTe?vefi, the music of the wild birds'
and tho laugh of wild flowers, the rip
pling of streams and the color of pebbles,
thu shade of thc clouds and thc hue of |
thc sunbeams-all those will have woven
their spoil over he? innocent thoughts,
and made her a poet in feeling, if not in
expression.'
No, mothers, don't nurse up your little
girls Uko house-plants. Tho daughters
of this generation nre to bo tho mothers
of ti next, and if you would have them
heaU.iv in body nod gentle in temper,
freo from nervous affections, fidgets ana
blues ; if you would fit them for life-its
joys, its cares, and its trials-let them
nave a good romp every day whilo they
are growing. It is Nature's own specific,
and, if taken in season, warranted to
euro ails of the girl and thc woman.

PAYING TUE BIEL.-Tho following es
timate of tho cost of tho Pittsburg riot by
the New .York-.World does not take into
account t?o duh?ago dono by loss* of life
and tho crippling of a score or moro of
fierions, nor tho shattering of the social
aws or order that may bear more fruit ot
any time :
"Tho taxpayers of Pittsburg wbuld
have been ! ss likely lo allow a handful
ot ruffian te convert their city into a
pandemonium if they bad realized tho
consequences to themselves ofthat night's
hideous work as fully as they now will bo
made to do. Eight millions of dollars is
thc lowest estimate of tho loss ca??scd by
the mob, and many placo it at i'0,000,
,000. Already ono pawnbroker, whoso
placo of business was ransacked by the
[crowd, bas sued te recover $6,000: a
leading lawyer notifies thc city that
claims amounting lo $150,000 have been
entrusted to him for collection, nnd sn it
goes. A Pittsburg papor estimates rude
ly the liability of the county at $118 per
voter. Tho total amount hoing funded
at five per cent., with tho allowance for
a sinking fund, tho annual ?evy of Pitts
burg .fill bc increased from $600,000 to
$1,200,000. In other words, for the next
twenty odd years every resident of Pl.ts
burg who pays taxes will have his burden
doubled, because, actively or passively,
he aided last Saurday's rioting. In ac
cordance with the invariablo rule, this
increado of tho municipal burden, will
fall upon tho mari of last resort-tho la-,
borer. When the property bolder Las to
, pay $1.000 ntoro in taxes, he" raises the
raw wi UM --??V-, ---_
of them taxes each of his ten individual
customers $1 to reimburse himself.
These things indicate tho probablo cost
lo the pcoplo of Pittsburg of their prac
tical course in political courage. It will
be expansivo, but, if they learn the les
son thoroughly, it will prove to be cheap
in the end."

T;;;; Qur???TJ??? QF FRKW*IIT?.-A i
writer in thc Newberry Herald say? :
Thc press of Charleston liave just
causo fur congratulation in that they
have placed themselves in daily commu
nication with thc mountnins, and deserve
great praise therefor, but 1 most respect
fully submit, Messrs. Editors, that the
needed reform, in which the gcucral pub
lic is more immediately interested, is thc
subject of exorbitant freights. For in
stance, freight for Newberry, which is
from 90 to 100 milos nearer Charleston
than Greenville, is thirty-five per cent,
higher than to the latter place. Why is
this so? It may be scientific railroading,
out it is utterly 'inpractical*! -, and the
general public cannot appreciate it. The
press must accomplish this reduction in
fVeigh? to ? just standard, ere they can
bc looked upon in the light of true re

uine-tentha of the inhabitants of the

TUE FAMISH IN INDIA.--The Mar
ums of Salisbury, Secretary of Htate for
india, speaking on Friday at the prixo
distribution at the College for Indian
JCiigineers, gave a very gloomy view of
famine prospects in India. "I regret to
say," tue Marquis reuiarked, "that our
prospects instead ot brightening have
during tho last few weeks become more
glooiiiv. There appears loo much reason
to believe that n second period of famine
is settling down over tuc vast district
which constitutes .Sinthern India, and
that famine cannot do otherwise than
produce terrible mortality. I fear there
is little reason to hope."
After explaining how the difficulties
of coping with the famine w< rc increased
hy the lack of railway communication,
and the fact that nearly all the draught
animals had died of drought, the Marquis
said: "But the physical circumstances
are such that, even if weean prevent any
widespread suffering from actual famine
-which I very much doubt -there can
ho no doubt that severe epidemics will,
follow and complete its work."
Titi A i* OK NRWHPAPKR MEN.-Gue
of thc greatest trials of the newspaper
profession is that it? members are com

world thuu any other profession.
Through every newspaper office, day
aller ?lay, go all thu weakness of the
world ; all tile revenges that want to be
reaped ; all thc vanities that want to be
pulled ; nil thc mistakes that want to he
corrected; all tho dull speakers who
want to be thought eloquent; all thc
meanness that want to get its wares no
ticed gratis in thc editorial columns, in
order to save thc tax ol" thc advertising
columns; all tho men wanting to bc set

crack-brained philosophers with stories
as ?ung as their hair, and as gloomy as
their huger naili in mourning because
bereft of soap-all thu bores who conic
to stay five minutes, but talk five hours.
Through thc editorial and reportorial
rooms all the follies and shams ol' the
world atc sent dav after day, and the
temptation is to believe in neither God,
man nor woman. It is no surprise to mc
that in this profession there are sonic
skeptical men ; I only wonder that jour

SLOW HUT Sum;.-The "slow lighter"
was a tall, raw-boned specimen ot Pike
County breed, and when he arrived in
the mining camp the hors hogan tn have
fun wirti him-to "mill him,*" as they
call it in the parlance of thc mines.
Ile stood it for a long time with per
fect equanimity, until finally one of thc
party dared him out of doors to tight.
He went. When they got all ready
and squared ol?, l'ifcc County stretched
out his long neck and presented the tip
ot his big nose temptingly close to his
tormcnter: "I'm a little slow," he said,
"and can't fight unless I'm well riled;
just paste mc on-a good 'un-right on
the end of that smeller !"
His request was complied with.
"That was a good "un," he said calmly,
"but I don't feel quite riled yet"-(turn
ing the side of his head to thc adversary)
-please chug mo another lively one" un
der thc ear ;
Tho astonished adversary again com
plied, whereupon ?'ike County, remark
ing that he was "not us well riled as he
would like to bc, but would do the best
ho could," sailed into the crowd, and for
thc next ten days the "boys" were en

No. 2 looks complacent on all of her
last crop of cotton, and, with a sense of
perfect rest and absolute fullness on 3,000
pounds of flour, neither of which she bas
sold because she had no uso for the
money. Thc only thing which disturbs
her rest now is wbnt to do with her new

GRANT IN ENGLAND.-Tho Queen
carno down stairs to roccive the General,
as she would do to a royal visitor, and if
any rudeness took place in tho castle it
did not proceed from the Queen. You
had better ask bow it was that an invita
tion which was at first designed only, for
P*"??? o?.d Mr?. Grunt waa afterward
nando to include Minister Picrrepont and
his wifo and Master Jesse Grant. You
will find, if you get to the. bottom of that
story, a very pretty spocimcn of diplo
matic manoeuvring, end you will see that
if tho kite takes it into its bead to go up
without its tail it will pretty soon find
out that tho thing can't be done. You
havo evidently underrated Minister
Pierrcpont's accomplishments as a kite's
tail. As for quarrels about "precedence,"
the only dispute that took placo was al
a dinner where Gen. Grant insisted on
going down before tho Duke of Cam
bridge. And this ho would not havo
done if his tmod friends who managed
him hero had" not egged him on. It is a
thousand pities that these matters should
be rev Ired!. I knew of 'hem all at the
time they took place, and of many other
little ineldnnt* of which vour readers do
not yet seem to have heard ; but it
seemed to me tho wisest to say nothing
about them. If injustice is to be done,
however, the whole truth had better be
told, and there are some Americans re
turning to Nev York who can give you
cn idea as tr- who is likely to suffer most,

what they saw or heard on tho Fourth of

as she pawcs. Mrs. Stephens b ^s been
the bcroino of many lettters from here,
but none of the correspondents seem to
have established ber identity, classing
her as au effulgent daughter ot Isrcai.
I? reality, she is the daughter-in-law of
Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, the authoress, and
has eertaiu ly succeeded in creating a gen
uine commotion even nt this abode of
commotions.
It is at thc water that she exploits her
self. Corning down on the beach, ar
rayed in georgcous attire, and attended
by her maid, she takes her seat in a beach
chair, and holds an almost imperial
levee. She bas a smile, a word and a nod
for every one, ?Mid they hustle each other
for supremacy. The levee concluded,
she retires to her bath-house, and reap
pears, after a while, attired in a bathing
suit calculated to display ber charms to
the best advantage. Her hair is ar
ranged after the latest mode, and, to-day,
she was with difficulty prevented from
going into the water with several valu?

bath over, she arises from the water like
a rather demoralized Venus, and is mel
by her maid who throws a picturesque
bournotue over ber mistress, too hood ia
pulled over her hair, and, escorted by
o II nierons cavaliers, she proceeds in state
to lier bath-house, and the morning sen

RUSSIA'S FlUHTIKU MATERIAU - Th?
New York Times has au article under
taking to show that although thc ninner
ieal superiority of Russia over Turkey ii
enormous, her supply of fighting men ii
comparatively small. Some facts an
given which scorn to impart color to thii
statement. Of 10.000 men recently se
up to Warsaw for inspection, 10,000 wen
rejected as unlit to serve from variou
causes, not inclusive of short stuture. I
has been established by sauitary com
missions that Russia possesses fewer able
bodied men in proportion than cithc
France or Germany. Thc average dura
tior. ;.f life, which in Britain is 40 years
in (?erinany 38, and in France 30, doe
not exceed 22 in thc healthiest parts o
Russia, while along thc Volga and tin
Caspian it fal Ls as low ns 15.
Thc annual increase of population ii
European Kussia is only 1 in 20, a fae
not difficult to credit when we renicmbc
that thc cholera sweeps the whole, conn
try every five years or so, and that ii
several of thc northern provinces-Nov
gorod, for instance-8-3 pc cent, 'if th
children born die in their infancy fron
exposure, accidcut or unavoidable neg
lect. It is added that many districts ar
unavoidably exempted from tho conscrip
timi on account of thf extreme acantinos
of their population, which in some case
averages only three to tho square mile
Besides these there are large bodies o
men in thc empire whom it would b
unsafe to enroll, such as thc disaffectci
Poles, thc Mohammedan Circassians, am
thc Menonites. who, like thc Quaken
have conscientious scruples against fight

For generations the bad air of over
heated cabins, and thc extreme cold out
side/together with insufficient food, hav
combined to render the Russians inferi?
in muscular power to TJnglishmcn an
Germans. Of Into years, however, cook
ing and ventilation have not been nog
lectcd by the Russians ; their armies ar
better fed, and thc unlimited floggin
which once pervniled is virtually abol
ished. Their devotion to the Emperor i
unlimited, and has as much of thc ficrc
