Thalr Patats of DtShranoa Comparad—A Qaa*Uon a* to Which la tha Battar. (b\tm the 8t. Ijouu Jiepublican.) There is a vast difference between the boys of to-day and those of fifty years ago, more especially as regards the things which minister to comfort and pleasure. The new boy, even if his parents are only moderately blessed with this world’s goods, has a ward robe which would have astonished Die old boy. Instead of the unlined cowhide boots—oftener shoes—rough woolen or rougher fur cap, coarse cot ton shirt, coat and pantaloons cut down from the cast-on paternal gar ments, rarely an overcoat and still more rarely any underwear, except the aforesaid shirt and home-made socks—Die new boy has his button shoes, rubber boots, handsome cup of sealskin or cloth, neat linen, substan tial underclothing, knickerbockers, coat and vest of fashionable cut, with overcoat to match, ull bought for him at first hands, and frequently a watch and chain. Think of an old boy with u watch and chain! lie would have been a greater curiosity among his companions than a trick elephant. From the time the now boy is out of his cradle he has a full assortment ol “store toys;” and as he gets older monev provides him with marble":, tops, kites, balls, bats, knives, wagons, sleds, skates, bycicies and nearly everything else in the shape of play things that can be Imagined. The old boy, in bis infancy, was luckv if he got a silver dollar to rut his teeth on, an improvised rattle and a rag baby. Toys of larger growth ke (Manufactured himself, “swaiqied” for, g<>| somehow by “book or crook,” or borrowed or did with out:'they were seldom or never bought toi him, him! ( liristmas and .SmiiIh I /tails never favored him with their visitations —while New Year was pro verbially stingy and Thanksgiving only stuffed his stomach. Now' and then tie had a few coppers in hi» pocket, but silver was quite beyond his ieach. A warm sleeping apartment in winter he never enjoyed, unless on the sick list. In a cold room, usually no bigger Dihii a closet, lie crawled be tween ice-cold sheets, and with chat tering teeth saw' his breath go out in white vapor, in the morning he often broke the ice for washing-water, half- dressed himselt with numb fingers and finished Ids toilette by the kitchen stove. The new boy has an infinite variety of literature, prepared e-pe- ciallv for him; that of the old boy was of the ancient Sunday-school sort, of which no more need bo said to those who have tried it. The new Iwn g"e* to the theatre, circus or at least to Die dime museum; but these places of amusement and recreation were hardly know n [n the old boy’s time—certainly not for him. The new boy begins with k indergarteu and ends with col lege or at least high school. The old boy was fortunate if he obtained bis “three Ks” from some rural pedagogue or at best was ground through a much poorer educational mill than negroes have nowadays. When out of the mill ho was set*to work amt thought himself well paid with indifferent board and clothes. The genteel idleness ot the average new txiy, which' so often degenerates in vagalmndism, was not tolerated fifty years ngo, and, unlike the average new boy, Die old boy bad no money to ■pend until be made it. lie had no dad's cash bank to draw upon; only the revenue of his ow’ti toil ami thrift. Perhaps it is only an old hoy’s par- Dality for old ways,.hut it seems to ns that the hard experience of the old boy* did more for Diem in many wavs than Die softer and easier lot of the new boy a does tor them. The former were quite as happy with the little they had as the latter are with their much, and they w ere taught—what Die others are not—economy, industry, ingenuity, self-denial, self-reliance, the valno of money, the necessity of labor, and, most offall, the line in the primer which declares that Satan finds some mischief still, For idle umds to do. Probably the new’ method of training boys makes more gentlemen, but the old method made more men ; and the world needs men more than It does gentlemen. We cannot, of course, revive the old condiUons, but can we not graft some ot the old principles and practices upon the new conditions? It would he worth while frying the experiment, if only for a change—and it might make a decided improvement in the present status and future pros pects of the rising generation, whose chief ambition seems to be to begin where their fathers leave off'.

ThlS ( was in the lllue Mountains, on the middle fork of the John Dav river, at a sort of horse-shoe bend about a quarter of a mile around. It did not look like a white had ever been there before. “Some of the boys went in swim ming and went across the river on the inside of the bend. They found thou sands of tracks of all kinds of game in the sand—doer, elk, coon, bear and gooi-e t acks. “ ‘Them goose tracks,’ interposed a voice, ‘was beaver tracks. A beaver’s hind foot is webbed and makes a track like a goose's.’ “That’s so. I found that out after ward. The river was full ot mussel shells, with mussels in ^icm at that. You could have scooped up a wagon- load of them in little or no time. “They' saw a right fresh track of a bear and a cub where they had been ultrr those mussels and gone into the brush. “I tried to got them not to go into the bru-h after Die bear, but no, they were bound logo. “Thev stationed me on a point that came down between the cogs of the horse-shoe and commanded the nnder- |y iug flut completely. ‘ Then they took the dogs and their gon- tuitl went inio the-brush. A man could just crawl through the brush and that yvu- all. “The bear was there, you bet, aud Die dogs bayed her betore they had gone a hundred yards.

The Milliner* Protect They Should Not Hear All the Illume. ( From thf Mill in t ry Tnulr Jirrirtc.) The effort now lieing made by cer tain limnanitarians to discourage tbe wearing of birds or their plumage by ladies in their b it - is all very good in its way aud gtyes opportunities for such persons to pose as returners, but why they should visit their wordy wrath upon the poor milliners, as some have done, is as mysterious as it is inconsistent. The milliner does not kill the birds, nor do they icacR Iwr until they have passed through the bands of several dealers or middlemen, and she would not sell them were they not demanded by her customers.

The announcement that Dr. Talxnage was about to disetuw the absorbing ques tion of labor aud capital drew to the Brooklyn Tabernacle last Sunday morn ing an immense throng of people from all classes of society. Scores were turned away, being unable to get within the vestibule. In (he audience sat many prominent Knights of Labor, and it was evident from their looks that they were in (sympathy with some of the preacher's remarks. After the congregation had sung the hymn, “Am of the Lord, awake! awake!” Dr. Talmage expounded a number of passages of Scripture. His sermon la the beginning of a series of lalxvr topics. Among tbe subjects to be treated are: “The Battle for Bread,” “The Rights of Capital and Labor,” “The Hardships of the Working Classes,” “IJow Employers and Employees Ought to Treat Each Other,” and “The Oreat- efit Foe of Labor.” THK CHAOS OF ANABCHT. “That labor has grievances I will plainly show before I get through this course of sermons. That capital has had outrages committed upon it I will make evident beyond dispute. I do not under rate the peril of those times. The ten dency is toward revolution. The labor quarrel is hemispheric—aye, a world wide quarrel, and Die whole tendency is towaad anarchy. One way in which we may avoid anarchy is by letting the peo ple know what anarchy is. It is the abolition of the right of property. It makes your store, and your house, and your money, and your family mine and mine yours. It is wholesale robliery. It means no law, no church, no defence, no rights, no happiness, no God. There is too much good sense dominant in this country to jiennit anarchy. Within six months there will be a kindlier under standing between labor and capital than lias ever been known in this country. They have demonstrated as never before their alisolute dependence upon each other. ADVICX TO LABORERS. “Meanwhile my brotherly counsel is to Uiree classes of laborers: First, to those who are at work; stick to it He who gives up work now will probably give it up for starvation. Second, to those who liave resigned work; it is best for you and best ior everybody to go back immediately. Those will make the most out of the present almost universal strike who go first to work. Thinl, to those who have been a long time out of work; go now and take the vacated places. Go in and take those places a million ami a lialf strong. My sentiment is full lilierty for all who want to strike to do so and full liberty for all who want to take the vacated places. Other in dustries will open for those who are now hiking a vacation, for we have only opened the outside door of this conti nent and there is room in this country for eight hundred million people aud for each one of them a home and a liveli hood and a God. I am not scared a bit. The storm will hush. “Workingmen of America, your first step toward ’>etterment of condition will be an asssertioi! • t u individual inde- jiendence of dict.it •••u of your fellow workmen. Do m t lit any man or any body of men tell y ou w here you shall work or where y on shall not work, when you sliall work or when you shall not work. If a man wants to lielong to a labor organization, let him belong. If he does not want to belong to a lul»>r organization, let him have perfect liberty to stay out. I belong to a ministerial association. I have a right to resign my pastorate and say, 'I am going. Good bye. ’ But I have no right, after I liave quit this pulpit, to linger around the doors on Hun day mornings and evenings w ith a shotgun to intimidate or hinder the minister who comes to take my place. [Laughter.] “This day I declare the mutual de pendence of labor and capital. Smite society at any one point and you smite the entire community. Relief will come to the working classes of this country through a better understanding between capital and labor, through co-operative associations, through discovery on the part of employers that it is best for them to let their employees know just how matters stand, and throngh the religious rectification of the country. Labor is sppreciated and rewarded just in propor tion as a country is Christianized. Our religion is a democratic religion.” THE 1’ABK OF MOUNT X KHNOV \\ hat Onr Hoalh < anilln* W oman tin* Don* For (he Plare. Mount Vernon is the property of the Ladies’ Mount Vernon Association—an association that saved it to the country, but which must inevitably transfer it to the government, as the people of the whole country, not a mere organization, shonld be the owners of the home of Washington. The property was left by Washington to his nephew, Judge Bush- rod Washington, and descended finally to Colonel John Washington. In 1869 Colonel Washington, whose affairs were very much embarrassed, was forced to sell. Congress, with strange stupidity, took no account of the place, and it was left to a woman to save Mount. Vernon from the antioneer’s hammer. This woman, Pamela Cunningham, was from South Carolina. She had been an in valid, well nigh bed-ridden, ah her life since her eighteenth year. When the news of the proposed sale reached her she conceived the plan of rescuing the place. She applied first to Congress, but Congress would do nothing. Then from her sick bed she organized the Ladies’ Mount Vernon Association and got a charter from the State of Virginia. She interested Edward Everett in it, who agreed to deliver a course of lectures as a nucleus for a fund to buy it These lectures were brilliantiy successful. Mr. Everett turned over $68,000 to the asso ciation. Other contributions flowed in, and at last the house and 200 acres of land were bought for $200,000. The original Mount Vernon tract, when, it was called the Hunting Creek estate, comprised 8,000 acres, but it had dwindled in the course of yearn The i—■Hinp is foyemsd by cm rstfL who is wduttal fler M* ■MiBhfcuiUftii regent The Iasi are selected, if possible, from the deieeodanta of Rsvohitionary families. The place is maintained by a fee of 60 cents charged every passenger who lands at Mount Vernon.' The asso ciation lets the contract for carrying pas sengers to a steamboat company, which makes daily trips. The fare is $1, which includes the entrance fee to the house and grounds. But the feeling is general and is loudly expressed that no admis sion fee at all ought to be charged and the government should be the owner. This will eventually work a change. The management has done much for the placet but the authority of the regent is absolute, the appointment of the vice regents arbitrary and things conducted generally in a slipshod way. Once a year, in the month of May, these ladies meet at Mount Vernon. They spend a week there and on Sunday they attend Pohiok Church, which wae General Washington’s parish church and sit in Die Washington pew. They look over the accounts—bnt there is no real super vision, the regent, Mrs. Macalistet Laughton, who lives in Washington, be ing virtually supreme—and then go home and see Mount Vernon no more until the next May. It is obvious that this plan cannot long last. Home years ago a charter was granted a company to Jmild a railroad from Washington to Mount Vernon. Lately the project has been actively revived. When that is built and the time of a visit brought within two hours instead of five hours, as it is at present, and greater crowds attend, the Ladies’ Mount Vernon Association will be a thing of the past. THE t|l ADRKXMAL CONFERENCE. Hi NOUN \<\ ion of Keteral lm(H»rtant Maltor* jotiriimont Moo Dir. Several important matters were consul ered by the Methodist Episcopal Con ference at Richmond, Va., during the two days of its session. A resolution was adopted directing the book agent to j>ay to Die bishops and bishops’ widows the amounts designated to be jioid them annually, aggregating $36,000. A resolution was adopted that United Stab's Senators Harris, Whit- thorne and Morgan lie requested to look after the publisliing house claim befon Congress. The committtee on miassion work reporbsl approving co-operation with the Woman’s Missionary Society. A resolution was adopted praying Die attention of the President of the United States to the international treaty with China, Die disregard of which threatens violence to the Missionaries of the Church in that country. The committee on temi»erance sub mitted a very lengthy rejxirt expressing opposition to the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors, except for medi cinal and and meclianical purjioses. The commitbe’s report recommended that Church memliers engaging in liquor traffic lie treated as incases of imprudent conduct. Dr. Candler, of Georgia, moved to amend the Discipline by insert ing the word “immoral” in place of “im pmdwnt.” The introduction of this amendment elicitod a lengthy and am mated discussion, and when Delegate Duncan, of Tennessi'e, in referring to i>er sons engaged in the liquor traflie remain ing in the Church, said “We must not sanction a traffic with the seal of Metho dism on the barrels,” there was a general outburst of laughter. Dr. Blackwell, of Virginia, thought the leas legislation had in regard to morals the I »etter. The re corded vote on Dr. CandFr's amend ment resulted in BIT for and (Id against. The report was then adopted as a whole. A resolution was adopted, requesting the Bishops to put foreign missions in their regular annual visitations, leaving, however, such visits discretionary with them. The Conference commended Die woman's missionary work by a unani mous vote. The question of the place of holding the next General Conference was referred to a special oommitte, to report at their option through the Church papers. A comraitte of five was appointed to select from Die Calendar such business for consideration by the Conference as may be deemed most imjiortant. A resolution was adopted auUiorizing the appointment by the Bishops of an assistant editor of the Christian Advocate; also authorizing the editor to draw on the book agent for $2,500 annually to pay correspondents. The Conference fixed upon the first Wednesday in May, 1890, as the time for the meeting of the next General Confer ence. The report of the committee on divorce was adopted. It provides Dial no minis ter of the Church shall solemnize the rite of marriage between jiarties when one or both are divorced from a wife or husband still living, provided Diat the inhil utiou shall not apply to an innocent party to a divorce obtained on Scriptural grounds. The Bishops were authorized to ap point fraternal messengers to the North ern Methodist Episcopal Church, to the Methodist Episcopal Church in Canada, and the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in America.
