THE PHoNoGRAPHIc MAGAZINE.-The second
number of this interesting little periodical
has been laid upon our table, 1t is pamphlet
of some twenty well filled pages eight of
them being autographed in the highest style
of the art Its contents are as follows:
Editorial" lessons in Photography,
No. q" Eight Pages of Autographed
Photography" 1.-THE Story of a Short
Hand Writer" concluded, Note to Ad-
vanced Photographers. We notice in it
vast improvement in mechanical execution
over the first number, and it affords us plea
sure to chronicle this evidence of the enter
prise and energy of its editors. We wish
that the youth of our city and State could be
awakened to a full sense OF uno D~--ss-
which knowledge of shorthand confers
upon its possessors. 1t is certain and easy
livelihood, which nowadays is vast consid-
Grafton, and it has often proved the stepping
stone to riches and position. In the Phono-
graphic Magazine the principles of the art
are set forth SO, closely and succinctly that
persons unacquainted with shorthand may
learn it from its pages. Besides this, the
Magazine contains many items interesting to
members of the photographic fraternity, and
will, we think, be found welcome guest by
literary men generally. The periodical is q
home enterprise, and we wish it success

are Messrs. Manley & Nixon, and their Office

By rejecting the returns from Orleans and
Jefferson the Board of Canyassers have found
a pretext for giving the certificate in the sec
ond congressional district to the scalawag
candidate Menard for the short term, and to
the carpet-bag candidate Sheldon for the long
term. The vote is returned as follows, for
Hunt 1888, for Sheldon 51OS, for Hunt 1888,
for Menard SOY. This is beggarly account
of empty ballot-boxes for district which cast
over % 600 votes.

Every day we receive news from Cuba that
the rebellion is on the point of collapse, and
that the rebels are dispensing in all directions.
At the same time we are informed that battles
are fought, in which, of course, the govern
ment troops are always successful, and the
dispensing rebels, somehow or another, con-
tinue in the most heterodox and unprincipled
manner to besiege important towns and get
themselves soundly thrashed as usual. Be-
sides all this they find time whilst dispensing
and oorapsing TO carry around printing
press with them and to publish an insurrec-
tionary sheet disreputably "disloyal" to the
Spanish government, and wickedly malig-
nant towards carpet-baggers and scalawags.
Well rebels will be rebels; and if the Cubans
insist on attempting to destroy the national
life of Spain and reject the old flag which it
is their duty to worship, they must expect to
be subjected to mild but effective regimen
of confscation and test oaths, perennial
scalawaggery and persistent carpet-baggery.

amendment to the Constitution of the

men and women as the inalienabIe birth

Rev. b. j. Bodies, of Springfield, Rev.

Samuel Z. Sewell read the proposed
constitution and preamble, which is as
follows: Believing in the national
equality of the two sexes, and that
women ought to enjoy the Same legal
rights and privileges as men; that as
long as women are denied the elective

The object of the association is declared
to be to procure the right of suffrage
