Lord Byron felt or affected tho greatest
honor Of women with good appetite. Tho
Arcadim, although an aesthetic Journal, In
dulges In these remarks:
"If anybody wants to believe In the spirit
uallty Of womanhood let him not visit, be-
tween IL and 2, noon, any Of the downtown
restaurants. His belief will be sadly shaken.
Women have right to cat, no doubt. Ma
ture has given them stomachs and digestive
organs whose demands are Just as clamorous
as the same apparatus In man. We think
none the less of woman for going to the table
with good appetite. We have no admira-
ton for the Blanche Amorys, who would
have us bell eve that they subsist on air, but
who take private lunches on the sly, aud
trihe In public with plate Of soup or bit Of
pastry, conscious that the demands OF nature
were more than satisfied only couple OF
hours ago. Only, there Is q point beyond
which good appetite ceases TO be u virtue,
and this point Is daily passed by the women
who frequent public restaurants. Yon will
ask us why we do not attack the men. Bless
you the men are not worth attacking. We
gave them up, so far Us eating and drinking
are concerned, long ago. For their gor'
mandlsm We expect no cure-untll the wo-
men shall have set them u better example.
We defy Tennyson and Longfellow to take q
lunch at Curriers', for instance, and then
write an ode In praise OF womankind, deduct
their Inspiration from the scene from whence
they have Just come. The thing cannot be
done. II is impossible to adore the woman
who smacks her lips over juicy chop and
orders a fresh relay Of steak after she has
had quite sufficient. Observe the happy
medium, ladies-as Charles II. Foster would
say were he writing the present article.
Don't eat too much. Use your digestive Or
gans as you ought to use your tongue, and
flnd out when TO stop. A woman never looks
beautiful to anybody but observation-disclosures
when her face Is flushed with q bottle of
Scotch ale and roast beef dd libiiiUn. RoCOl-
lect what Cornaro, that model OF temperance,
said three hundred years ago, and keep in
mind, especially when You swallow repast
before q roomfull Of male observers, that
what We leave after having eaten heartily
does us more good than what we have eaten.
So shall your days NC long In the land, and
more pin money be aceruiDg to you,

This was the closing day Of the Virginia
State Agricultural Society fair, which la,
been one of the best since the war, and
proved financial success.
Ispent few hours there to-day, and saw
much that was gratifying. The exhibition
Of thoroughbred horses was most excellent.
OF short horns and Alderncy cattle the dis
play was superior. OF swine and sheep and
poultry II could hardly be better. In imple-
ments and machinery the show was very dne.
SO In ali departments the various exhibit
tons were decidedly creditablc.
The following were elected as the officers
for the ensuing year:

On Thursday evening the society held
meeting In the Statc-housc, to consider yari-
Gus matters Of interest to the farmers.

discussed, when Colonel Lewis T.. Harvic, of

the subject OF oranges gnd their relation to

was high time for the farmers Of Virginia TO
ally themselves with these oranges, and so
far a. no was concerned they would be.
Again on Friday evening meeting Of tho
farmers of the State was held In the hall OF
the House OF Delegates, when Colonel ID. s.
Curtlss, member Of the Farmers National
Grange, and deputy for the Order In this
State, made an address, deliberately AM, care.
fully setting forth the objects, purposes and

adjourned until the winter meeting In Janu-

sra: Tho Republicans Of Stafford had an old
fashioned Virginia barbecue at this place to-
day. There was larger turnout OF the
party than have ever seen before In this
county, aud the large rrcdomlnance OF whites
afforded most encouraging evidence Of the
growth Of the party In old Stafford, which
the Conservatives have claimed as their ban
ner county. The people were In good spirits,
and showed q lively interest In the canvass.
Our indefatigable Congressman, Hon. James
d. sener, made an able and eloquent speech,
showing the essential necessity for the people
Of Virginia to view tho present contest from
the standpoint Of their individual interests
and the development Of their State, and cx-
posing the paralysis Of improvement and the
depression Of trade, agriculture, aud manu-
featuring, tho total check Of! immigration
aud tic inflow Of capital, which four years
Of Conservative Encouragement have pro-
duced. Ills speech brought home to his
hearers The issues Of this canvass. Every one
who heard him was impressed with the i'm
portance Of placing State government upon
a national basis, In accord with the great
national Republican party, that her invalu-
able resources may be turned to advantage
and her people reap the full benefits Of the
progressive spirit OF the period.
After dinner Samuel Babcock, esq, O gen.
tlcman from New York, who has resided
among US for several years, and who IL our
candidate for the Legislature, made speech
Astounding In practical wisdom, showing that
he understood the wants Of the people Of
Stafford, and knew what legislation was
needed TO relieve them.
Speeches were also madc by James l..
Taliafcrro esq, Lawrence Il. Martin, esq,
n. NJ ia 1T liz
Martin deserves special mention. He Is
quite young man, but he Is bold, eloquent,
and q thorough Republican. lie is an Irish.
man, and possesses the brilllancy and fire Of
oratory characteristic OF his noble race.
The dinner provided was plentiful, and wa.
partakep Of amid much good humor. Seyera
