DRESS AND COMMENCEMENT ESSAYS.

At q recent commencement in ''lemale
college" in New England, the finest scholar
of all the pupils declined an ap?ointmfnt to
deliver the valadictory address, on the
ground that those who took part upon the
platform were, by custom, compelled to APP
pear in the elegant white dresses, With sash
es, and other wearing apparel; and that she
could rot afford the expense, and was too
Independent to accept aid. At a recent
commencement day in the West, young
woman read a. fine essay: On the way from
the hall we heard one Of the lady listeners
remark to another lady "Wasn't that fne?"
Eyes, was the cold reply, ''bus what a
mean little train she wore" That this is
wrong we need not say. But we may say
that is too general. and that it is q foible so
common among men as among women. Who

BARNUM IN THE BALLOON BUSINESS.

2 t. Barnum is now making arrangements for
the ascension Of balloon which is intended to
cross tn Alta ntic Ocean at early day in charge
of Professor Donaldson. AS many attempts have
already been made by well,known aeonauts, all of
which have proved failures, Mr. Ba"num has deci-
ded tn make several experiments for the purpose
of first testing the easterly currents and making
all requisite observations. These experiments
viii be twelve in Lumber, and Professor Donald
son has been engaged to personally carry item
out. Several balloons. are now being cons tructed
which will contain about 80, coo feet of gas They
are Of silk, and will be fitted up with every mod
ern and scientific appliance for taking records OF
the different temperatures encountered at various
attitudes, and it is intended for each ascent to
continue fIom tweuty-eight to thirty hours in
duration, When these experiments are completed
Professor Donaldson will make his report to Mr.
sBarnum as to the feasibility OF crossing the Allan
tic. Should the report be favorable suitable
balloon will be at once manufactured, made of the
best material and on the most approved plan, SO
that q thorough trial in crossing the Atlantic may
be made, The cost Of the experimental balloons
will be about 1000 each

Items from the Tribune.

The scare about the failure of the
cranberry crop which gained Gre
dence some week since, we are now
convinced was premature, in meas
ure. Those marshes that were not
flooded up to about June 1st, will
yield next to no crop; while the
marshes that were so situated as to be
flooded at will, and which were
properly attended to, will yield a
good crop. We learn that some es-
innate that the crop of Mr.. J. 7.
Bearss is worth $4,000, that Mr..
Hitchcock will harvest a large crop,
and that the quality of the berries is
splendid. They are just beginning
to "turn."
AT the regular monthly meeting
of the fire company on Wednesday
evening, Foreman Smith resigned,
whereupon 1st Asst. Foreman King

The corn crop in this county

years. Mr. McCamley, Of Saratoga,

he has never seen the equal before,

In the Interest Of Reform.

Judge Cate processes to so love Re
form that lie may become "a candidate
for Congress in the interest Of such
Reform Movement. . He then breaks
out in general denunciations Of the
corruption in Congress. AS Judge
Cate is on the Bench it strikes us that
this is about as insolent and silly let
ter as we ever read. Suppose DR..
McDill, present member of Congress,
should open the campaign by proclaim
ing the general corruption of the
Judiciary and declare that Judges
actually sold justice for political prefer
ment, and used their powers to pay off
their political friends and punish their
enemies? What would this circuit
judge say to the taste that would dictate
such a course. But what will tie peo-
pie say Of an officer vh0se tern, as
Jndge does not expire until 1878, who
talks Of running for Congress (before
he is even nominated) with the follow
ing clause Of the state constitution
staring him in the face:
Each of the Judges of the Supreme
and Circuit Court shall receive a salary.
payable quarterly; they shall hold no
office Of P,'blic trust, erccpt u Judicial
office: during the term ttor achich they
are respectively elected, and all votes
for either Of them, for any office, ex-
cept a judicial Office, given by the
Legislature or the people, shall be void.
But in the interest of reform, and
to purify Congress, Cate is willing to
violate the above clause of the consti-
tuition he has sworn to support. He
must be reekiug with love of Reform
or he would not offer to ride the con-
stitution in its behalf. -Nadison Jour-

Centralia, Aug. 18th, 1874.


We are IN receipt of a pamphlet
entitled, "a Hand Book of Politics
for 1871, at the hand of Hon. A. s.
McDill. We find it a valuable statis-
tical work, being record of political
acton from July Is, 1872, to same
date, 1874. Among its contents we
note the legislation upon the passage
of the Salary Act of 1873, the repeal
of the same; Judicial Decisions and
opinions; Constitutional Amendments
in the state; President 5 veto messages,
&C., &c. 1t is a valuable work for ref
erence for any paper.
Dr.. WIGHT's address to the people
of Wisconsin is so full of suggestions :;
of ''musts" and ''musts not" that we
fear our reform friends won't get around
IN season to make nominations if they
heed them all. The Dr. goes on to
say:
That the state has a right to control
corporations of its own creation is a
vital issue with the Reform party. On
that point there can be no compromise,
no concession.-Every candidate of
the Reform party for the Legislature
must be sound on that question.
How such sentiments must tickle the
Milwaukee Ne,cS and the Madison
Son-in-La,o aud kindred papers that
are owned aud controlled by the R. R.
Corporations. It's tough, but what
the learned Dr.. says is gospel. Again
the good Dr. says:
Every candidate should also be of
unquestionable character-above suspi-
clon of venality. Send no man to the
Legislature next winter, whom you
would not entrust with the aQministra-
ton OF your estate. Look out for the
agents of monopolies and venal politi-
clans.
How cody the DIR. talks. We don t
know how it is all round the bush. but
we don't like 10 have this earnest re-
former draw the lines 50 tight as to
shut our '.reformers'' out from any
and all participation in political mat
tiers. Give them a chance Dr.. rive
them chance. Let up a little for the
-'good causes" sake. Don't compel
then to make no nominations in Wis
consin.

one who has supposed that they are
must be perversely blind-but declares
it to be an object upon which the order
In this State must unite to preserve the
principle of legislative control and
make it subserye the cause set forth 10
the Declaration of Purposes of the Ma
tional Grange, 1.-The protection of every
true interest Of our land by legitimate
profits"
The members Of the executive com
mittee are very properly moved to some
apprehensions by the threats of the
monopolists and their organs. They
see that a gigantic effort is to be made
to secure the Potter law by the next
Legislature, and they recognize the
indications that the purchasing of leg
islators is to be one of the means relied
upon to this end. The language Of
the address on this point conveys an
impressive warning and an admonition
that the members Of the order through
out the State will not fail to heed.
They will support only candidates
whose character is an assurance that
they will be ''impregnibIe to the as
.saults of organized capital" In
furtherance Of this purpose, the plan is
recommended of putting questions to
candidates and requiring public
answers.
1t can scarcely be necessary to Point
out the lesson which this address should
convey to the Republican party. That
party is thoroughly and peculiarly
identified with the industrial interests
of the country, its position was taken
at the outset, and has been resolutely
and unswervipgly maintained.--There
is no need to fear but that every can
didate Of the Republican party will be
able to say, in reply to any question
that may be put to him, that he is
neither to be frightened by the threats
nor purchased by the money of the
monopolist. Ml,oaukee Sentinel.
