Saratoga Cor. Courier journal

Saratoga Cor. Courier. Journal
As a supplement to the editorial in the
Courier-Journal, entitled THE Low Cut, "
which has reference to the order issued by
the queen of England in regard to low
necked dresses, will take the liberty OF
saying II few words upon the immortality
of embroidered stockings. As every one
stands in the presence of the queen, of
course her majesty's sense OF modesty has
never been shocked by the display some
ladies make of the extent of their fancy
stockings. When a departure was first
made from fine white stockings to those Of
fancy colors and embroidery on the instep
there was not the slightest suspicion that
it would lead to immortality. 1t is true that
there has always existed strange preju-
dice against the fact that woman's body
rested upon legs, and that she has feet
for locomotion. While it is proper for
women to rebel against the absurdity of
having men suppose that they are divested
OF Il most important part of the human
structure without eycu the substitute of
angels wings, yet there is no need Of
dressing feet and legs for The purpose Of
drawing the attention Of men to the pro-
test. | will affirm, too, that this dressing
is not intended especially for ladies admi-
ration any more than the immodestly low
dresses are intended for them. Crossing
the legs while sitting is masculine atti-
tude; it is ungraceful, and they who prac-
tiCe it in public may be set down as lack
ing in feminine delicacy. Lovely stockings
are charming and the slippers which are
designed expressly TO wear with en-
broidered stockings make even ugly feet
look pretty. Then why should the wear
ers pervert the beauty of these things until
they are dcmoruliziny. 1t is because hu-
man nature has tendency to viciousness.
Dancing is a beautiful and innocent
but when such dance as the
racquet" is evolved out Of the waltz,
then it ceases to he either beautiful or in
uoccnt Very few couples dance the
racquet" at Saratoga. Most OF the pro.
prieties are observed here. Fast and loud
people are asch"wed Saratoga has re.

Tho Alabama Election Frauds.

Accounts from Alabama come to us
filed with evidences Of the frauds prac-
ticed in the late election. The most
shameless and open discrepancies exist
between the ballots cast and those counted.
At Huntsville an amount Of suppression
and intimidation, equal to that used in
the worst days Of reconstruction, were
openly carried on. Comment upon these
things without more positive action does
little good. The party who condemn these
outrageous abuses, be they committed by
whom they may, has q hard work before

| tion Of the law and the laws themselves
| must be such as to prevent similar actor
by any party. That party which paIadeI

gress, which declares for "free ballot,

version of the peoples will. Work agains

For over ten years | had been a great sufferer

Doctoring brought no relief, except perhaps
momentarily, and was finally advised being

it on, and the effects were truly wonderful

Early Arrivals of Knights Templars In
Chicago.

From the Chicago Times, August l6.
1t is evident that the triennial conclave
OF Knights Templars, to be held in this
city this week, will be a bigger affair than
any of its projectors have imagined. The
city is full of strangers, already, and dis
patches from all points show tnat thous-
ands are on the way.
Several Communicates arrived in the
city unannounced and unexpected, last
evening, and found, to their surprise, that
no preparations had been made to receive
them. They were quartered on TIE lake
front, as comfortably as possible, but ow-
ing to the unfortunate misunderstanding
as to the hour of their coming, they were
compelled to submit to numerous iDcon-
veniences. By to-day matters will be
straightened out, however, and all will be
we'll provided for.
Decorating went on as usual, yesterday,
many prominent buildings blossoming out
in gorgeous colors. II has been found
necessary to materially change the designs
of some Of the arches. The wind played
sad havoc with them, as originally con.
structed, and several alterations will be
made.
Members Of the Grand encampment
now in the city attended Grace church,
yesterday morning, and listened to an
eloquent sermon by Rev. DR.. Clinton Locke.
Rev. DR.. Thomas preached sermon ap-
propriate to the occasion at Centenary.
Thieves broke into the camp on the lake
front, and stole a portion Of the regalia Of
the California Knights. The scare which
this raid created resulted IN a conference
with Gen. florence, who has called Tor
four hundred volunteers hom his COM
mand to do guard duty,
To-day will be devoted cxclusivelyto
the reception of visiting knights.
