------------------------- What Girls Think

An English writer has made study of the mental operations of the minds of unmarried women, and has reached these conclusions:
 ''At seventeen, the girl thinks often of love; delights in love songs; fills Moore's poems with pencil marks; thinks Byron's face beau tful; eats little in company. At eighteen, still thinks great deal of love; would care nothing for poverty, providing she had 8 sweetheart who adored her indeed, would rather be poor than rich were she united to the ideal whom she had not yet met Still reads a great deal of poetry and novels which deal largely with love and the death of the heroines; passionately fond of children. At nineteen, little more critical finds some of the poetry that pleased her last year lit tie weak looks about for steadier authors than her old favorites; dances every dance in a ball, and is not quite so particular as to the men who are introduced to her. At twenty, is not sure whether, after all, it would not be best to be an old mans darling. Neverthe- less, she firts more uniformly; all her shy ness is gone :; and she enjoys her food wheth- CT people are looking at her or not At twenty-one her belief in old men is strong; she has lost her prejudices in favor of pover- ty and cottages, yet she would not insist up- on money were her ideal to present himself. At twenty-two thinks her youngest sister rather forward in her manners, particularly with young men; sometimes suggests to mamma that the invitations which include the youngest sister merely acts of polite  ness which people don't want to be literally interpreted. At twenty-three, is annoyed if any one says in her presence that the pallor of half the girls one meets comes from tight laoing. At twenty four, laces deliberately for @ waist, and does not much mind if it be known; finds the company of old men always more agreeable than that of young men, and is fattered if boys pay her attention. At twenty-five, is found behind bazaar stalls initiates the style of the fashionable beauty frequently alters the character of her coiffure and uses great many different kinds of stuff for her hair. At twenty-slx, declares that she hates the idea of marriage, wonders how girls can voluntarily enter state of bondage; marks all passages in novels in which men are tyrants and ceases to notice other peoples babes. At twenty-seven, falls in love; about four months of quiet anguish and despair; sits late into the night alone in her bedroom is ilted writes twenty letters, in all con ceivable styles-from the passionately scorn- full to the mild sacrifcial, forgiving, heart breaking style-none of which are posted destroys the ballroom programme on which he has written his name."

YEsTERDAY,s CONVENTIONS.


 The convention at Utica yesterday was 8 lively one, but Senator Conkling had no seri- ous difficulty in carrying out his programme. This programme was the passage of resolu' tions strongly indorsing General Grant and instructing the New York delegates to Chicago to use their best efforts to secure his nomina- ton. The unit rule was, wisely, not insisted on. and the various Congressional districts were permitted to select their own delegates. The delegates at large are Roscoe Qonkling, A. B. Cornell, Chester A. Arthur and J. D. Warren.
 If Senator Cameron had conducted his con- vention as wisely as Senator ConkIng did his he would have done General Grant better ser vice than he has. New York is overwhelm- ingly for Grant, and the majority of Grant men in the convention was large, yet there is no excuse for Charging that Conkling has abused his power, although he could easily have done so.
 The seventy delegates from New York added to the ffty-eight from Pennsylvania give General Grants supporters good foundation upon which to build.
 The Vermont Republicans held their con- vention yesterday, and decided that they did not need to go away from home for presi- dential candidate, and they present to the Re- publicans of the country George F. Edmunds as suitable person to be President of the united States
