k1- In conformity with notice given
Mr.. Joseph Slgler was on hand at the
Herald office with nm extraordinary
display of the finest qualities ofApples
on Saturday last. We regret to state
that the other fruit growers of our
County did not see proper to accept
the challenge of Mr. Sigler, and do
their utmost to successfully compete
for the encouiums of the committee
The committee were james A. Adair,
Chairman, Chas, w. Mummey, and
John Il. Cowdrey, Mr.. Sigler display
cd l6 varieties oftho fruit, all perfectly
sound. The Sigler pound Apple was
esteemed by the majority oftho Com
mittoe TO be the best apple of the lot.
Those, of this apple displayed, were
grown upon q tree thirty-fvo years
old. One hundred and eighteen OF
them would fill a barrel. Amongst
others which attracted particular at.
tentlon were S~prague's Seeding, Bent
ly's Sweet Seeding, the Winter Sweet
Paradise, Woods Greening, the Putnam
Russet, and the Westfleld Seek nc
Further.
The committee unanimously adopted
the following resolution:
ReSolved. That we have never seer
q better exhibition Of Apples anywhere
-excelling as the selection docs in
variety and havor-and that Mr.. Sig
ler is deserving of the highest praise
for his untiring efforts to improve the
qualities of our fruit and TO encourage
its growth and hat We regret thai
others of the County did not feel dis
posed to appear with specimens of their
frult-that W. regard it as a taoit &C.
knowledgement OF their inability t
compete with Mr. sigler.

In the Women's Rights Convention
at New York, the following nomina-
ton was made for President of the
United States, by one ofthS speakers.
He said:
"uADAME DEMoREsT FOR PRESIDENT.
Now many women were employed
in NIL the departments of literature,
and even OF business, who had distin.
guished thcmselves2 There is Madame
Demorcst, who is called tho
leader of fashion. Stuart might I'M
port the goods, but they were of no
use unless Madame Dcmorest taught
the women how to cut and make them.
Madame Demorest had branch estab-
lishments in almost every principal
city ofthe Union; and she had been il
the Office one day when she received q
thousand dollars from the vicinity of
the Rocky Mountains. That was
achieving a success just as respectable
rs any, ana just as noble as any that
could be achieved IN business. Why
should not this entitle her some day to
q sent in tho Presidential char as much
as the occupation ofthe present incum-
Deht, II tallorE threat laughter, and
A%pplausel]
''oRIGIN OF SHOPPING.
Gle attributed the prevalent taste of
women for dress, and their preoccupa-
ton in it, to the restrictions and diff
c%ulties in the way of woman's indie
pendent ambition. He had looked
with contempt on the stalwart six-feet
men who were measuring out tape.
How could women be blamed for shop
ping when a hundred thousand busi-
ness men throughout the United States
were setting snares at every conner to
tempt women to be fashionable.
If women should turn sensible it
would bankrupt half the nation.
Laughter and applause He did not
know but that would be 3 national
blessing ~.

steals on us like dawnIng light, which
all over the heavens spreads and in
vests the world with beauty and glory.
The road that led on through the UNI

gloom; and the fair bride, her spirit
