Louisville Courier-Journal
CINCINNATI, August 30.-While
Secretary Sherman was talking of the
civil service administration of Hayes,
at the opera house this evening, a
wild-eyed Grant man shouted "YVhat
about Arthur? Why did you remove
him2" This query caught John off
his guard, aud tended to rile his
frozen humor. After a moments
thought, he replied, in a sarcastic way:
81 have never said one word impugn-
ing General Arthur's honor and integ-
rity asa mar and a gentleman, but he
was not in harmony with the views of
the administration in the management
of the custom house. While | would

ton, yet | would vote for him for
vice-president a million times before
| would vote for W. Ii. English, with

H CEREMONIAL.

Our Madrid correspondent writes:
"a much criticized royal decree enacts
that the usual aud ancient ceremonial
shall be observed in the palace as soon
as the royal physicians will declare
that her majesty's delivery is close at
hand. The lord chamberlain, duke Of
Sixto, has already issued invitations
to the diplomatic corps, whose chiefs
must be present in the royal ante
chambers with the ministers of the
crown, the chief authorities of Mad.
rid, the principal prelates of
the church, the presidents, Sec
retaries and delegates Of the
two houses Of cortes, the delegates
of military and noble orders Of knight
hood, the deputies Of the order Of
grandees and Of the nobility, in all
about two hundred and fifty high
functionaries and personapes who
must hold themselves in readiness at
any hour Of day or night to obey the
invitation Of the royal messengers.
The event will be announced to Mad
rid by the firing Of tw~enty-one guns
if a prince of Asturias is born, and by
fifteen guns only if an infanta is the
first born. A red flag in the first case
and a white in the second will be
hoisted, and if the event takes place
at night red and white lights will be
used. Twill not forstall to-day the
strange and stately ceremony Of the
birth, when the poor queen is deliv-
cred in the presence Of ~prelates, min

have to be witnesses. Directly after
the birth the royal child is placed on
a silver basin, covered with a rich
lace mantle, and the king carries the
basin out to the distinguished as
semblage in the te-chamber,
and, u%ncoyering the infant, his
majesty allows all present to examine
and attest the sex Of the newborn ere
the deed of birth is drawn up by the
minister of Grace and justice as royal

The Census boomerang.

Pittsburg Post.l
While it is not improbable that in
the south, as in the north, there have
been blunders in taking the census,
the idea is absurd that any general
plan of exaggerating the population
Of any state or section could be car
ried out without detection. Accord
ing to the New York Herald, Mr..
Hayes, before he left Washington for
the west, investigated the census
question so far as it relates to South
Carolina, he having been urged
to order a new census of that
state. As a result, the Herald says
Mr.. Hayes stated to the partisan busy
bodies that he did not believe there
was the slightest foundation for the
alleged frauds, and, taking the vote
for president in South Carolina in
1879 as a basis Of calculation, being
three years and seven months before
the enumeration began, South Caro-
lima ought to have in 1880 nearly,
if not quite, a million in
habitants. The ex-congressman
departed bewildered at Mr.. Hayes
statement, and it is said began to real
ize that there were too many corrobo-
rative facts sustaining the accuracy of
the census returns to be disputed at
this late day. The total vote Of South
Carolina in 1876 was 1916, of which
Mr.. Hayes received 9l,S70, and Mr..
Tilden 9O,9O6. The proportion of the
voting population is one to every FIVE
inhabitants, an average that holds
good throughout the country, and by
which the population of every state
can be correctly estimated when the
full vote Ofthat state is known to have
been cast. According to this rule
South Carolina, at the close of the
centennial, even assuming that every
vote in the state was cast, must have
had a population of 915, 900, and
since then the increase claimed
in three years and seven months is
only $4,000. The congressional vote
that year, when three Of the five
members elected we're republicans,
exceeded the presidential vote, the
aggregate being nearly 10000, repre-
senting a population Of 800, 1000. The
congressional vote of South Carolina
pOlled in 1873, when not two-thirds OF
the republican vote Of previous years
was cast, was nearly 10000. This
view of the census seems to have es-
capped the notice Of the critics, but not
of Mr.. Hayes, who, as above stated,
at one time thought it might be neees-
sary for the census bureau to have the
state Of South Carolina recanvassed
but who now plainly sees that the
accuracy of the present returns cannot
be very well questioned without charg-
ing that the presidential vote Of 1876
was manufactured for party purposes,
and that the suspicious of engineering
such fraud would be stronger against
the republicans who managed the
election and made the count than the
democrats.
This Dry of census fraud" is sim
ply another instance Of the boomerang
practice Of the republican party in this
campaign. Prosperity and progress at
the south is gall and NORWOOD to
them.

An important movement is now
under way here TO prevent any occa-
sion for disputes regarding the eligi-
bility of republican candidates for
presidential electors this year, and to
see that the returns are made up in
compliance with all the te~chnicalities.
A committee is being organized
which will examine carefully into the
eligibility Of every person nominated
as a Garfield elector, to make sure
that nobody is voted for who holds
any United States commission or who
has ever held one without having his
resignation formally accepted. 1t is
also proposed to secure copies of the
authorized forms on which the returns
Of elections are required to be made
in each state, and to place a copy in
the hands of a competent republican
at every voting precinct in the close
states, who would see that the returns
we're made up according to law, OF
promptly report any mistake or at
tempt at fraud.

ike the pretender ? Philip is highly
suggestive Of a gloomy tyrant and ia
natical ruler. Ferdinand is full Of
recOllections of the grandfather Of
King Alfonso, a name not very palat-
able to Spanish liberals. Neverthe-
less it is reported that a prince Of
Austrias would be either Ferdinand
or Philip de Bourbon. The title of
prince Of Austrias is the ancient title
of the heirs and frst-born of the SOW
ereigns of CASTLE. In default ofmales
the old laws OF the monarchy allow
~princesses to assume this title, as they
admit them to the throne before cous-
ms and uncles of the reigning branch.
No Salic law ever in Spain excluded
women from the throne or from titles
of nobility, and hence it is that the
great grandee dukedoms and marqui-
safes have passed through so many
families.

Peruvian Women.
Philadelphia Times.l

fhlladelphia Ilmes.l
Lima is the paradise of women.
They are called beautiful; so they are,
if you admire black eyes and ebony
tresses. They are generally occupied,
but do not work they look upon la
Dor as degrading. They rise early,
take a cup Of tea and 60 to mass.
Their toilet requires but a few mo-
meuts; their walking suits are neat
and pretty; in this respect they sur
pass us. The dress is black, and
never touches the ground; there is no
fussing or fumbling with trains. A
white skirt is sometimes seer below
the dress, with a deep hem and two
tucks, and always white and clean.
Prunella CATERS are generally worn /;
the hands are bare the manta is
thrown over the head, falling grace
fully down almost TO the bot
tom of the skirt. The subject
Of dress claims most of their
time and attention. The ball dresses
and opera and soiree suits are maguif-
cent. Their boots, especially, are
beautiful. No people have naturally
as small feet as the Peruvians. The
Peruyian-made boots are too small
for foreigners, Peruvian ladies are
not very intelligent; as soon as they
pass beyond the school girl period
they care little for books or literature.
Many learn to play the piano when
young, but do not care to continue
when married. They are excessively
courteous in manners. They are al.
ways wealthy in imagination-at least,
they never speak Of poverty. They
love 10 smoke. Although handsome
when young, they scarcely turn q
when they begin to fade. One thing
always lasts with them, and that is
their gait. Their movements arc
gliding and graceful; the same is true
OF the men.
