Hands Without Gloves.

Tho mandate went forth last winter
that it was not aristocratic for gentle
men to wear gloves. Only those who
arc accustomed to work, and tho
rougburss al whose hands must be
covered, should wear gloves. To
wear them, implies tias tho haEds
will not bear inspection. The result
Of this freak Of fashion is visible upon
the waists Of ladies' dresses, where the
tender pressure OF the uusIOscd hand
often leaves its Imprint. Tho abolition
of gloves may be attributed to the
influence of Baron 6cIIlozcr, the Ger
man minister ut Washington, who
ueycr wears gloves even upon stat'

III is a perplexing point which our Philadelphia
friend propounds. II the hard-money considcra-

say instantly. vote against Judge Kelley
whatever else you do but it must be remembered
that on every other subject Judge Kelley has been
faithful and valuable, while on every other
subject his opponent would probably be
against US and dangerous. IL, for instance.
