NOTES OF THE -DA Y.

Col. BEN. WILsoN is at his home near
Clarksburg.
SENATOR DAVIS remains in Washing
ton during the recess.
IT is complained that Cincinnati
street car drivers fiirt with ladies on foot.
THE managers of the new York baby
show made $4,000 by their exhibition.
EX-SENATOR MATT. CARPENTER Is
still sailing away $4,000 to 100000 a
year by his law practice.
ENGLISH girls are getting into the
habit of raising their jaunty little hats
when they meet their male friends.
SENATOR HEREFoRp's wife is de-
scribed by correspondent OF the
Graphic as ''young, handsome and enter
tanning"
THE New York Eue,stng Express
thinks Conkling will find Blaine ser
yiceable servant if he keeps him as we'll
under MS he does everybody else.
THE strawberry mark on the arm OF
Mr.. Blaine, which enabled Mr.. Conkling
to recognize him as long lost brother,
was not strawberry mark at al, but the
place where his right arm cleaved to the
roof of his mouth.
OsMAN PAsHA is described as an
athletic man, in the forties, weli-shaped
head, good features, taciture, self-reliant
and pious. He could not abide news
paper correspondents, and it may be that
one of the scribes took revenge by writing
up his suicide" which didn't occur.
The news of the troubles IN FL Psso
county, Texas, is received as q rule with
indifference. The New York Sun says
the "laborious concealment Of the real
source of trouble in FL Psso county IS the
most remarkable feature OF these annex
ationist tricks"
THE Cincinnati Commercial thinks 1t
WAS lust as well that the difficulty be-
tween Senators COnkling and Gordon
was smicsbly settled, since Conkling is
not believed to be q timid person, even In
case there are double bsrreled shot guns
about, while Gordon has faced the high
toned music of rife balls more than once.
TIE Cincinnati Gazette Is inclined TO
think that Secretary Evarts has tlibus-
ter strain in the blood from the fact that
he has refused all recognition OF the dc
faeto government of Mexico, the only
one which has authority to punish Mexl-
can marauders, and which was making
energetic exertions in that direction.
ATLANTA Constitution: - Fashion
sometimes runs into sarcasm. Thus, for
instance, The heading of q marriage no.
tee in one f., our State exchanges reads
'Rhes-Morse."
Erening TeLegram:-"Ham, a Kansas
CITY land swindler, didn't save his bacon
q bit. He got ten years, and by that
time be will probably be cured" Homi-
ny years did you say?
"a MAN who was trying to sell rather
q dismal residence boosted that 1t COM
manded view of the railway station.
But that doesn't make it any more
pleasant, said the party who was ex-
pected to purchase 1t. oh, yes 1t does,
replied the owner, confidently; lit makes
it gay here. You can stand on this step
and see everybody that misses the
train"

In regard 10 the Life Of Lord Palmerston, 1t is
suggested thatit would have been well to have
followed the aphorism of Talleyrand in regard to
political memoirs, and have withheld 1t from the
public for fifty years. The review gives several
quotations from letters on the Eastern Question

ton of food, ard gives some advice about wine
In speaking Of game, the writer mentions the
Bohemian pheasant" bird he has never tast-
ed, and about which he would like some infor-
nation. 1t ia understood that these delicious
birds only appear on the Continent at the season
when shooting Is contrary to law, and they bear
the same relation to ordinary pheasants that
"owls" bear to partridges in this country.

THE Hon. G. Wylie Wells, late carpet
bag Congressman from Mississippi, was
here day or two this week, and upon
leaving Cincinnati started to Cleveland
on visit to the old man Cowles, editor
of the Leader. The Honorable G. Wylie
Wells, like the Hon. J. Madison ditto, OF
New Orleans, has a scheme on hand to
control Hayes or else ruin him. Itseems
he was an applicant for the position Of
Solicitor of the Treasury. bat failed to
obtain 1t, though he was offered instead
a second.rate Consulship. The position
he declined to accept, and to impress
upon Hayes the penalties Of his wrath
he has been busy developinga sentiment
in Ohio prior to the Republican State
Convention, to be. massed against HAYES
in case he still remains stubborn. Wells
and Cowles have both been disappointed
in their ambitions, and they are capable
Of making some mischief in the Republi-
