Kverything in this world has its compensations. If we an- losing the pleasures ot summer, the glorious ; autumn weather ts here, "with iu pe- ' cnliar offerings of gratification to sight 1 and taste. It' those are soon to jiass, , winter follows. WIk. in winter, does j not confess that its sour.-e of true en- : joyment to the p'rvn fairly providod with the means of living may render ' it equal to the pleaantest season of ; the four? For winter is the home seitxtn. ' It i the time when civilization asserts its power in the comforts of human in- I vention, and educated man asserts his , snneriority over flic cin-urtteiUinces which surround him. Anv naked I savasrt can be comfortable in summer j time. But winter tests man s power. ; and is the season which displays the i work of his reasoning faculties and the provision of his foresight. j It is, as already said, the "home ' season." Its true improvement and j enioyment are in social intercourse, and "the mutual assistance of home in- ! mates. These inmates may be parent, i brothers and sisters, or even "fellow- j boarders." There Is many a pleasant : circle whose tie is only in the much j abused, but indispensable copartner- j ship of people without homes of their own. They throw their capacity to j buy and to enjoy into a common stock ; and since every man cannot be a house master, nor every woman a house mistress, the boarding-house is the only substituteforyourownhou.se. in some respects it has advantages which a man's own house might not have ; though it is not to be questioned that the -'own home" is the best, "all things considered." "All things" Is a comprehensive phrase, and include, of course, all that ought to lie done. Long evenings are with us now, and soon they w ill be longer. It seems difficult to realize in midsummer, and we have not even yet quite realized the fact, tliat, iu a few more weeks, lighting the gas or lamps will be in order at 4:30 p. Jl. From tliat hour to ten is a pretty long stretch, but to ten or eleven it is half the length of a working day. And now, gentle men, the question before us is, what are the tronien to do all these hours? The men liave three or four weeks of political and public evening talk be fore them. This must soon come to an end. The election topics already have their interest largely abated. After. tliat. what? Xo doubt some thing will be found for the men to dis cuss. There always is something for them. But the women who are hope ful that "this thing of talking politics will soon be over.'' are' entitled to some, consideration lu the .matter. They wish the election past, that tliey mav see more of their husbands, sons, brothers, and perhaps of their possible future husbands. , . And this brings us to the "moral." as the edition of Esop has it. Facts are the best teachers of morals. And the first fact to be noted is that, if women are tlie "light of home," men should be as much at home as possible in order both to enjoy that light and keep it brilliant and cheerful. Long evenincs are lone Indeed in homes neglected ay tneir male memoers.. Domestic habits aud family enjoyments and duties are the very best conserva tors of private happiness and public virtue. Amona woman s rignts, a clear and unquestionable one is her right to as much of the society of her male relatives as mey can civet - Ana among men's best privilege and safe guards Is their, appreciation oi tneir domestic ties, and tlie making of their observance such a custom that it will become a pleasure.

But such pursuits should make "home" but the mere pleasant not supersede it. And men should alwys select, if possible, winter amucmeuts in which the family may join them.

NKW YORK EHTOR4. A correspondent of the RovJiester I K'inocnit writes thus concerning some of tlie peculiarities of Bennett. Gree ley and Raymond : lninitf till, null- mU'lt ralimt who kept tlie public at a distance. Greeley s policy was to admit all who j wanted see him. Tho editorial rooms of the Tribune were open and (Jrceley could lie seen hard at work. If he heard a step behind him he would exclaim, without stopping his pen. "What's wanted :-" If tlie visitor said, "1 "11 speak when vou have a moment to spare," the reply would lie, "(io on, I'll hear it now." If the man had anything worth attention, Greeley would reply, still writing, and it would lie a very important matter tliat arrested hi pen and caused him to turn around. Mr. ltaymond also al lowed himself to be seen iu a very pub lic manner, thus carrying out the cus tom of the Tribune, when; ho was bred. A gentleman once called on him with the inquiry : "Arc you at leisure "No, sir," was Raymond's reply, "but I am at your service." Bennet, on the other hand, kept his editorial rooms locked. An acquain tance of mine once got into the sanctum and was immediately ordered out and the door slammed in his face. Tlie door oftheeditorlal rooms of the Herald is now guarded by a janitor, both day and night, two men lieing thus reliev ed. Tlie visitor finds at the head of the iron staircase this attendant, who is very polite and now oilers to convey a card, if desired, but mentions the edict of the exclusion. If a card is sent in, there is a place to sit awaiting a reply, and a few newspaper files af ford occupation. If the visitor's pres ence is desired he will be ushered in ; if not; be refused an interview.. I have been within the enclosure aud noticed one feature, which I consider a great advantage. This is the ab sence, to a very great degree at least, of daylight, arid most Of the writing is done by the asslstincc ot gas-burners even before evening set in.

Bennett was one of this class, aud lience had his editorial rooms thus ar ranged. Greelev, however, . could write as well in a crowd as alone, and hence be had his nlace entirelv ooen. At present the Tribune keeps its edito rial retreat cioseu after sunset, ana one can read the inscription over the door: Tribune editorial room ring the bell.' IMPERIAL MARRIAUK. .

Quite a number of Democratic pnpers urge, as they cannot cast their vote for tlie deceased that they be at liberty to cast the votes for some representative Democrat, and Hendricks of Indiana Is mentioned by numbers of the im perii in this connection. Others, in cluding some Southern papers and fJve Cincinnati CommerciaC btvor casting the vote for Grant as a graceful acqui escence t the majority, while others, including the Cincinnati Enquirer, believe that the electors have no dis cretion in the matter, that having been elected solely to perform a specific duty must perform tbat duty by cast Lug their vote for Greeley and Brown. The Tribune of this city argues that, in accordance with the spirit of the Constitution, electors should vote for Brown, who, iu case of Greeley's election and death before inauguration, would be Constitutional President.

Whenever a new speaker came on. this man bawled out "Mr. Henry f Henry Henry ! I call for Mr. Henry.' Alter several interruptions of this kind at each speech, a young man as cended the platform and was soon siring bb eloquence In a tnagnUoquent style, striking out powerfully in his gestures, when the outcry was heard for Mr. Henry. Putting his hand to his mouth like a speaking trumpet, this man waa bawling out at the top of his voice. "Mr. Henry ! Henry ! Henry ! I call for Mr. Henry to make a speech !" The clialrmau now rose, and re marked that it would oblige the au dience, -it tbe gentleman would refrain from any further calling for Mr. Henry as that gentleman was now speaking. "Is tliat Mr. Henry f said the dis turber of tbe meeting. "Thunder! that can't be Ur. Henry ! Why, that's the little cuss that told me to holler." TUU3i MOTHER. A little elbow leans upon your knee, Yonr tired knee, that has to atix h to bear ; A ehlld'i dear ryes are Vooklnr lovingly Fra smderaeath a thatch of tanaied hair. Perhaps yon do not heed tbe velvet touch Of Warm, moist fingers holding yoers to thzht: Ton do not trrixe this blesatnr over-much. Yoa are almost too tited to pray to-aight. But It Is blessedness! A year sgo I did net see H as I do to-day We are so dull and thankless; aadtoos'ow. To catch the sanshiao rill it slips away; And now It seems surpassing strange to sie That while I wore the badge of mother bood I did not kiss more afr, and tenderly. The little child .ant brought me only gMl. And It, some right, when you sit down to rest. Yon miss this elbow from your 11 red knee. This rsstisss corliag bead from off your breast. This lisping tonrue that ehatters constantly: If from your own toe dimpled heads had slipped. And ne'er would nestle In your palm again; Iflhe white feet into their grave bad tripped. t could not blame vou lor yonr heart-ache then! I wonder so that mothers ever Iret, At little children clinging to their gown; Or that the footprints, wnen the days are el. Are ever black enough to make them trow n If I oonld find a little saaddy boot. Or cap or Jacket, on my chamber floor; If I rotiik kibsa rosy, rest lets foot. And boar iu potter in my home oix-e more: If I could mend a broken cart today. To-morrow make a kite to reach the sky, Tliere is no woman in God's world could si y She was more blissfully content than 1. But ah ! the dalntv pillow next my own Is never rumpled bv a shining bead; Hv singing btrallng from its nest Is flown; Thd little boy I used to kiss Is dead ! Great Attraction!
