To her the banquet's VOWS belong
Whose breasts have poured its wine;
Our trusty friend, our true ally
Through varied change and chance;
So, fill your flashing goblets high

Above our hosts in triple folds
The self-same colors spread,

The blue, the white, the red;
Alike each nations glittering crest
Reflects the mornings glance
Twin eagles, soaring east and west:
Once more, then, Vive la Francei
Sister in trial. who shall count
Thy generous friendships claim,
Whose blood ran mingling in the fount
That gave eur land its name.
Till Yorktown saw in blended line @
Our conquering arms advance,
And victOTy's double garlands Irvine
Our banners Vive la France!
Oh, land of heroes in our need
One gift from Heaven We crave,
To staneh these wounds that vainly bleed
The wise to lead the brave!
Call back one captain of thy past
From glory's marble trance,
Whose name shall be abugle-blaSt
To rouse us Vive la Francel
Pluck Condos baton from the trench,
Wake up stout Oh aries MarteI,
Or find some woman's hand to clench
The sword of La Pucelle
Give us one hour of old Turenne-
One lift of Bayards lance .~
Nay, call Marengo's Chief again
To lead us Vive la Francei
All, hush our welcome guest shall hear
But sounds of peace and joy;
No angry echo vex thine ear,
Fair Daughter of Savoy! "
Once more the land of arms and arts,
OF glory, grace, romance;
Her love lies warm in all our hearts:

HOW THKY DRESS AT NEWPORT. f5
A correspondent of the Boston Post
writing from Newport, says that women
are developing sensible ideas in regard to
dress this summer, and they combine
beauty with sense. There are very few
cases of Overdressing. Ease, comfort
and prettiness are what are sought for
now, and really they are achieved.
Nothing could be prefer or simpler than
the morning toilettes of white and buff.
Linen and cambria rule, and as these are
worn over colored silk petticoats, there is
a great economy in laundressing. One of
the most stylish morning suits is a petit
coat of brown silk trimmed with one deep
ruffle, and above that a three-inch wide
Russian pleating. The oYerdress is a
Potonaise" of fine buff linen looped high
at the sides, which has a trimming of
brown velvet the same shade of the
underskit, and fastened all thewsy down
the front with velvet colored buttons The
sash, very broad and full and quite long,
is of brown silk. The body is cut heart
shaped, quite low, and is worn with
linen habit and collar, fastened by scarf
of brown crepe de ehene. The hat is
Leghorn, quite broad trimmed, with a
trimming of brown ribbons. Short dresses
are worn almost exclusively for all Occa-
sions, and it is allowable togoto dinner in
q morning toilette, if one chooses to do
so. The hair is worn in braids or in loose
curls, fastened back with ribbons. There
is very little display in dress, in COMPARE
son to other seasons, but never have the
ladies dressed more becomingly than now.
They are entirely outdone in the matter of
display by their brothers, who seem to
be making all the show. Their peckties
alone are marVels, and they seem to have
taken fancy to the brightest of scarlet
blue and green scarfs. They are posi-
lively dazzling. They wear choker collars
an the shortest of velveteen jackets, and
altogether are astonishing. lT'H ahEa

POISONING IN THE INTERESTS
OF BEAUTY. bslu

The subject of lead palsy has long at
tracted the attention of physicians in
private practice, and they have only too
frequently to warn patients against the
use of hair dyes and cosmetics, when the
first symptoms of the disease has made its
appearance. But the danger having
finally attracted the attention of the Board
of Health of New York, after several
cases of the palsy had been traced to a
cosmetic called the "Bloon of Youth, :"
it has accordingly ordered its chemist DR..
C. F. Chandler, to make an analysis of
the various preparations for the hair and
skin. The general prejudice against the
use of identifying preparations is stronger
against cosmetics than hair dyes, and
many who would fancy themselves
in danger if they used powders or
washes for the skin, plant disease
daily in their systems in attempting to
conceal the flight of time, as betrayed by
their hair. But of the two, the cosmet-
les are the more harmless. DR.. Chandler
analysed six washes for the skin, and
found poisonous metal in only one, moth
and freckle lotion, which contained both
mercury and zinc. The seven powders
for whitening the complexion, analysed
by him, were found entirely harmless,
but the enamels he found were composed
of carbonate of lime, oxide of zinc, or
carbonate of lead suspended in water.
These are therefore exceedingly danger
Gus, and beauty is purchased by them at
the almost certain risk of disease and
death. But the revelations concerning
the hair dyes are startling, for oct of six
teen analysed only one was compare
lively, free from lead. The analysis re-
vealed the fact that lead wasused in them
in the following propol tions-the figures
giving the number of grains contained in
a fluid ounce of each:

through this city, via thu Mobile and

to engage in work upon railroads in that

The dyes he chose for examination are
the most popular in use, two of the most
dangerous rejoicing in the title of "vege-
table, tones for the hair. 1t is almost
useless to point to these facts, says the
Philadelphia Post, as warning for the
needless young and the vain old, for such
people feel so secure in their own immu-
nifty from danger, and are so conscious of
their own desire to be as beautiful as
possible, that they will use any prepare
ton certain to produce the desired re-
suits. It might, however, help them to
use their time to the best advantage if,
taking DR.. Chambers table as a basis,
they were to put their own chances of
life and health to possible tests, and hav-
ing formed some idea of their physical
condition and estimated how much poison
they use daily in the toilet, come to some
kind of intelligent estimate of the length
of time it will take to produce lead palsy
or death, and so live to the best advant-
age before they have to pay the final
price for the whitened skin and darkened
hair they have secured by the use of lead
preparations.

THEDUTY OF THE HOUR,

From the McMinnviIle New Era
Much is being said, and more written,
about the approaching State election, and
among all the eloquent appeals to the
people through editorial and newspaper
communications the matter is constantly
presented aOrOng side up. The universal
cry is, ''This is my man, u 81 will have
this man or none" while some papers
have gone so far as to denounce person
ally and in a scurrilous manner the men
put forward by others as candidates.
Now, while Tennessee can boast of many
noble sons, any of whom would add dig
nifty and bearing to her Gubernatorial
chair, and WELD the helm of State with
honor to himself and the commonwealth,
yet those who are now clsmoring so loud
" for this man or that, forget the funda-
mental principles of republican gov
ernment-forget that measures, not
men, are the foundation of true Re
public-forget that our present unhappy
demoralized condition is the result of
man worshipping, and that our present
national degradation resulted from the
brilliant glitter of shoulder-straps that so
dazzled the eyes as to conceal from the
vision the true measures of government.
In short the question was "'UrOng side
op."
Let us go back to those good old days
no matter whether you call them DEM
oyratic or Whig-when the principles of
government were taught and understood
first; and when il became necessary to fiji |
an office, State or National, the people
cast about for the man that en-
bodied their principles and when
found elected him. 1t was then as it is
now; there were many distinguished sons
from among whom to select, still there
was not that jealousy existing between
them or their friends, and while each had
his warm supporters, all conducted them
selves with such pTopriety that when one
was selected he was the choice of all 1t
should be so now.
Let no man be so short-sighted as to
hasten his own destruction by fosterihe
his prejudice for a name. What's in a
name2 Where is the man whose folly
would permit him to remain in burning
! dwelling simply because a Quarles, or q

old ship that is to rescue us from the en-
quilting waves of Radical Capitalization,

What's in a name? Suppose we call hel
