EX-LIEUT.- GOVERNOR DoRsHEIMER of
New York is somewhat erratic and no.
madic politician. He was launched in the
Republican party somewhere about 1856,
and followed its fortunes so long rs it sub
served his personal ambition. In 1872 he
was found with the Democratic party,
where he was doing valiant service in pre-
pairing the way for more full recognition
when there should be fresh distribution of
official viands. GREELEY was defeated and
GRANT was elected and then he sought
preferment at the hands of the Democratic
party of his State, and secured ii. He
championed TILDEN's cause at Cincinnati
with consummate skill and at great ex-
pense. This eminent service was not re-
Quilted to his satisfaction, and he then de.
serted the cause of his old chief and took
up political quarters with Tammany.
Now it is intimated that he has
made up his mind to abandon KELLY
and return to the Democratic fold in
the hope of getting rid of TILDEN and
getting even with him on old scores by aid
ing in the work of sa lely lodging him In q
quiet pgeon-hole. Such sinuosity rarely
succeeds, but it may in this instance. II
DoRsHEGMER should enlist in the cause OF
JEwETT, who seems to be forging ahead lit
tie, and JEwETT should get the nomination
then he will labor with all his zeal and ability
TO secure the vote of New York for his new
chief-expecting, of course, if successful, tc
be rewarded when President JEwETT shall
make up his jewels Such versatility, sin
uosity and promiscuity are very likely tC
find their reward at some time, if pursued
with proper enterprise.

New York Fashions.

Plush is such favorite among the heavy
fabrics for winter that some of the imported
costumes appear to be made of 1t entirely,
though there are pleatings and revers of satin
de Lyon on the skirt, and the Innings and
foundation are of silk. Amethyst, bronze
myrtle green, and garnet are the colors that
are most effective in plush. The best quali-
ties are all silk, with smooth deep pile as
heavy as that of moleskin velvet. Chenille
cords as thick as ropes are knotted on the
corsage and drapery OF such dresses, and the
rich beaded and gilded passementeres and
embroideries form the trimmings, the collar
cuffs, and sometimes whole tabliers. A basque
with trimmed skirt is the design for such cos
tunes, and these are arranged so close and
clinging that they give the effect Of a princesse
dress; indeed, many are what is called the
detached princesse dress, the back OF the
basque aud skirt being sewed together per
manently, while the belt of the skirt is separate
in front, and fastened beneath the basque.
For black costumes, either short or long, vel
vet Is preferred to plush, as the latter is not
effective in black. A black brocaded velvet
basque, straight front breadth Of the same
velvet with satin dc Lyon side breadths heav-
lily trimmed with jet fringe in rows across,
and back breadth partly Of velvet and partly
ofsatin de Lyon is the design of the handsomsst
imported black costumes. The neck aud sleeve
may be finished with jet passementerie, fur
bands or else with feathers. There is usually
a soft bag muff of the velvet, with plush or
satin lining, made with such costumes. For
long house dresses of black velvet the plain
velvet is used, as that is always in fashion.
Worth delights In heavily repped yet soft
and pilable Siciliennes, and is using them this
season in combination with Persian and India
silks as draperies over velvet skirts. Gendsrme
blue Sicillienne forms the coat-basque and the
taceuSe drapery of one of Worth's richest cos
tunes, while scarf of Persian silk of many
coors is draped across the front and caught
up in puffs as panel down one side of the
dark blue velvet skirt Bronze Sicilienne il

had not been previously secured, it was useless
to go on, as not a room or cot was to be had for

We were soon en- route. The seat question
was now the problem, its solution important
The Drawer was slightly perplexed, but soon
scared to the occasion. Taking from his pock-
ct a certain formidable official letter of intro
duction, he showed it to the portly person afore
said, and explained to him that it was a docu-
ment of very many horsepower. The Drawer
supplemented this brief grafton with the frank
and truly American proposition, "If you get a

reached Oberammergau and drove to the resi-
