Safety OF the Steamers Nevada and
Nebraska-A Serenade TO Newton
ROOth -CeIebratiOn-Fire.

SAN Francisco, September 9.-The
statements published in the Associated
Press papers here and throughout the
country, tending to create great fear for
the safety of the Australian steamer
Nevada, are without foundation. The
steamer City Of Melbourne, which ar
rived at this port yesterday from Sidney
did not touch Auckland, New Zealand,
and consequently could not have brought
the intelligence regarding the Nevada
which the Associated Press papers
have published. The Nevada made
her regular connections at Honolulu
with the steamer Ajax, and no anxiety
whatever is felt at that point for her
safety. A statement has also been tel.
egraphed by the Associated Press that
the steamer Nebraska, OF Webbs line,
was overdue at Auckland, and that ap-
preheDsion for her safety were excited.
A sufficient contradiction to the canard
is the fact that the Nebraska was in
port at Honolulu on the same day
as the City OF Melbourne and sail.

Hon. Newton Booth, Governor elect,

serenaded at the Grand Hotel last night.

number of persons in this city, sup
posed to be in some manner connected
with the conspiracy, for making an
attack upon the prisons, overpowering
or shooting down the guard and liber-
ating the convicts now under confine-
ment. 1t was also the intention to fire
the Government arsenals and burn them
to the ground. The attacks upon the
prisons and arsenals were to be slmulta-
neous and day was assigned for the
execution of the plot Fortunately for
the safety of the city the discovery was
made and number of the conspirators
arrested. The revelation of the plot
caused intense excitement and the au-
thorities are vigilant and on the alert
for the apprehension of all suspicioned
persons.

LEXINGTON, KY, September 9.-Pool
selling for the coming races, which
commences on Monday, took place at
Broadway Hall this morning, resulted
in but small sales. Jackson's Gabolinza
was the favorite for the one mile dash.
Eight horses sold for fifty dollars
against the field. For Clay's Ginger
stake race, mile heats, six horses were
even against the field; the others sold
at about the same average but were not
separated. The Gales were not equal
to the expectations.

keeper of D. II. Davies & Co., late
prominent cotton brokers of this city, is

AS To Low DREssEs.-Most fash
ions owe their origin to an attempt to
give prominence to the strong point to
hide the weak point of king or queen.
Thus powder came into vogue to con-
ceal queens gray hair, and large pc
rukes because a king was bald. We
learn, however, from Belgian paper,
that the custom of ladies exhibiting
their busts in all the beauty of nature
has far more romantic origin. In a
battle in which the French we're engag-
ed Gall dates, we may mention, are in
reserve, } their ranks were broken, and
they were routed. When they retreat.
ed their women barred their breasts and
entreated them to pierce them rather
than permit them to fall into the hands
of the enemy. This was too much for
the gallant Gauls. Nerved with fresh
courage they turned, renewed the com.
bat and were victorious. From that
hour French women have on festal oc.
casions always been accustomed to wear
their dresses low. In fact, when you
see Que who appears to have forgotten
the upper part of her dress, it is nc
proof of iudolicacy, but simply an indi-
cation of the power of national senti'
ment. This satisfactorily explains
what many ignorant people have taken
for impropriety. We live and learn.

A TOUCHING INcIDENT.-Some
years ago we visited Portsmouth N.
H., to attend mass meeting of the
Washingtonians. AS We were passing
along one of the principal streets, our,
attention was attracted by the stem
torian tones of. Che sturdy crier, who
was announcing the meeting. As he
approached near we said to him:
"Friend! 1 hope you are personally
interested in the object about which
you are making SO much noise for the
benefit of others"

Willie's trowsers were thin and ragged,
and he had no great coat nor mittens.
Willie didn't want to go; bnt | scold-
ed him, and he started a few steps,
and then stopped and said,
"Father, / wish you would give me
a cent to buy stick of candy"
T told him to 90 along, and not
bother me about stick of candy.
The little fellow began to cry, and
stammered out,

money to buy candy. Tommy Jones

RUSSIAN LADIEs.-The ladies in
Russia are very anxious to marry, be-
cause they have no liberty before
marriage. They are kept constantly
under the maternal eye until given up
to their hus bands, and then they take
their own course. Almost as soon as
a siri is bora, in tho hsttcr ranks of
society, her parents begin to prepare
the dowry she must have when she
goes to her husband. She must furnish
everything for an outfit in life, even to
dozen new shirts for her coming hus-
band. Tne young man goes to the
house Of the proposed. bride counts
over her dresses, examines the furni.
ture, and sees the whole with his own
eyes before he commits himself to the
irrevocal bargain. In high life such
things are conducted with more ap'
parent delieacy, but the facts are as
certaiued with accuracy, the business
being in the hands of a broker or notary,
The trousseau is exposed in public be.
