Andrews Bazaar and its New Years
Gift

We presume there are hat very few OF
our lady readers who are unacquainted
with the great Fashion Journal, ANDREW g
Bazaar The career of this sparkling
paper has been but little short of the
marvellous. 1t begins its seventh vol
ume with subscription list OF 5000.
Business energy and fair dealing, prom
ises kept and constant succession of
good things, have deservedly given
ANDREWS BAzAR the high position which
| 1t occupies in public esteem. After a
perusal of any single number Of it ev-
cry reader must wonder how a Journal
which offers so many attractions can be
furnished at its marvelously low price,
only 81 per year when, in addition to
this, we ascertain that every subscriber
receives Soc. worth of Patterns free, our
perplexity increases; and when we find
that every one who subscribes before
February 1st, 1880, is promised beau
tiful gift consisting Of grand supple
ment sheetor Fancy Designs worth $40,
we have to give it up IS an unsOlvable
conundrum. But the fact remains that
the proprietor promises all this to the
subscribers for 1880 That he keeps
his word to his vast army of subscribers
is unmistakable proof. We would advise
our lady readers to send Sl for this
model journal, beginning with the Janu-
larry number, which secures the New

overcome the action Of Governor GAR.

constituted authority to determine the
legality of the returns for Senator'S and
Representatives and to Issue certificates
to those declared elected, is attracting
considerable attention, The ~ Y. Her.
aid reads Mr. BLAINE this plain lesson :
The misguidiDg motives which infu.
ence the conduct of Mr.. Blame are evil
dent. In the first place. he is acting in
view OF the rule which has long been the
common law of national conventions
that a Presidential candidate must be
able to carry his own State. Mr.,
Blaine's chances were imperilled by the
loss OF Maine In 1878, and In the can
vass OF the present year be made her
culean exertions to recover 1t. He did
not qnite succeed. His candidate for
Governor fell about two thousand votes
short OF a msjority, thus throwing the
election into the Legislature. But as
the new Legislature was expected to
have q republican majority in both
branches II was a substantial republican
victory. An unexpected slip betwixt
the cup and tho lip threatens 10 dash Mr..
Blaine's Presidential hopes and be is
doing his utmoot to convince tue country
thst II he loses control OF his own State
II will be owing to political knavery and
not 10 the true result Of the election. 1t
is natural that be should wish to emphs
s,za claim which so nearly touches
bis Presidential prospects; but when he
Ia willing to,give 1t the bloody emphasis
Of local civil war he goes too far.
Public opinion will not sustain him."
"Ip the next place, Mr.. Blaine ia
naneavring to avail himself OF this op-
portunity t. show that lie Is "a strong
man" Bot II tho next iour years are TO

advantage which the people would ex-
pect from having "a strong man" at the
