"CovER THEM OVER WITH BEAUTIFUL
FLOWERS" by Stewart, is New Quar-
tette for Decoration Day. The senti-
ment embraced in the celebration is a
beautiful one, and the Quartette named

who loved the brave boys, and cher
ishes the memory of our fallen heroes,
will want to hear the song, and it is
now in full rehearsal wherever the day
is honored- "Cover them over with
beautiful flowers" will become very
popular. 1t can be had at all Music
Stores for 30 cents, or will be mailed
for that amount by the publishers, Lee

DEAR SIR: "Owing to the magnitude
and popularity of the Order of Patrons

mand for information concerning the
Order. This you have met in your

STYLE IN WRITING.-The best writer
is he who can convey the clearest
thoughts in the shortest space. Some
writers so hide their thoughts in use
less words that it becomes task after
you have read a column to comprehend
its meaning. Ornament in style is good
when it beauties the thoughts ad-
vanced; it is inexcusable when it covers
them from sight. A writer, before he
touches pen, should first get clear
idea Of the subject he is to handle; this
well understood, his next effort should
be to say what he has to say in the few
est words possible. We would not have
a single thought dwarfed by stingy
use Of language; but even this would
be better than to see it choked out of
existence by superabundance of words.
Write to the point, and when you have
reached it, stop. 1t requires severe
mental training to acquire that sim
plicity of expression which conveys to
us the grandest thoughts in the fewest
words, yet it is within the province of
all to approach if MOTTO equal it. Ithas
been said that it is more difficult to
abridge an article than to write one,
that it requires more time to write a
short article well than to present the
same thoughts in double the space.
When Queen Anne told DIR. South that
his sermon had only one fault-that of
being too short-he replied that he
should have made it shorter if he had
had more time. Let our writers-es-
pecially these Of the press-boil down
their efforts before they present them
to the public. In this fast age the man
who can say the best things in the
shortest space is not far removed from
public benefactor. f

PREsBYTERIAS VOTERS. = Since our
last annual meeting Monday, I1th, We
have been so often asked what 1t is that
constitutes the qualification of voter
in our church, that We will reply to all
by giving the article on that subject in
the Discipline and Form Of Government
Chap, 18th article ". which is as fol-
lows: "In this election, mo person shall
be entitled to vote who refuses to sub
nit to the censures of the church regu-
larly administered; or who does not
contribute his just proportion according
to his o,on engagements, or the rules Of
that congregation, to all its necessary
expenses" We will lie. the reader make
his own comment, and put his own esti-
mate upon church men who will en-
courage or offiicate in gathering up
not professors and members of other
churches to kelp them rule. Con-.

To Road SUPERvIsoRs.-Supe
who really desire to become good of
ficers may now inspect the highways of
their districts and see where the work
is most needed. A man of judgment
can save many dollars by putting work
in the right place, cleaning cutters by
4 few stI okes of the hoe and thus suf-
fering the surface water to run off.
Water standing on the side of the road
keeps it soaking and soft and easily to
be cut up by teams. Put load Of fine
stones or cinder in very bad places
which need raising, but put it in the
middle of the track and let it spread
and settle that the water may run off
Only smooth the top so wheel may
pass over it safely.
A few bad places made good each
spring, how soon the whole road may
be improved. Lock after your bridges
and see that they are safe and the ap-
proaches.

NAUGHTY PRAcTIcE.-It is undoubt-
edly bad practice for persons living in
second stories, to be hawking and spit
ting out Of their windows. More es-
pecially is this abhoring when it emf
mates from windows Immediately above
business rooms, where there is con-
tinual going in and out. So uncon-
cerned and thoughtless are some that
they quirt tobacco juice in every direc-
ton, and If it should happen to strike
on any one, it's all the same to them. A
certain gentleman was passing under
a window, the other day. He heard the
hawk, and knowing what was coming
he started to run, but just got under the
far window when he felt that he had
run the wrong direction and caught
about a tablespoonful of mucous on tht
back Of his fine coat. The fellow ISM
quite as mad as he was. s

FROM TaR PRESIDENT OF THE FRENCH.
Mr. Pfcsident: France can never forget
her obligations to your government for the
wise irmness of its Executive in 1888 in CONF
pelling my august predecessor, Louis PHILIPPE,
of blessed memory, to pay up the American
indemnity, which might otherwise have been
a charge upon my treasury at this day, whom
it would be very incOnvenient TO take care OF
it; neither can she ever be iusensible 70 the
benefcent exercise of your influence in
smoothing the way for the withdrawal of our
army from Mexico in 1867, aud thus saving
us the inconvenient expenses of a longer oCS
cupation of that miserable country. We
would prefer, however, and shall not hesitate
to avail ourselves of the first convenient OPP
portunity that offers. TO testify our gratitude
in some similar service to you, rather than by
accepting your Excellency's gracious invita>
ton to celebrate your first Centennial in Phila>
delphia. The fact is, to be frank with you,
as becomes men in positions, the part
which my predecessor, the lAmented Louis
XVI. of blessed memory, had in your
national 0ccOmchemrRt, cost him aud his wife
their heads, and fear that my participation
in the Centennial anniversary of that event
might prove equally expensive to myself.
My august predecessor meant no wrong In
lending you his support in your revolt in 1776.
he merely sought the humiliation of Eng
land, always the natural wish of every Com
tinental sovereign but yOu know the people
are not discriminating. They arc apt to think
their rulers mean what they say and act from
the motives which they avow. So when they
saw their king aiding il the establishment Of
your Independence aud the Sovereignty of
the people they were pig>hcaded enough 70
suppose We we1 lighting for tho rights Of all
men; not merely for the privileges of the
French princes. regret to say that the same
delusion is more rife in my dominions now
than ever before, and it requires all my power
and tact to conceal from the public the extent
to which it prevails. have u very soft plAoe
