Literary Notes Regarding The July ~

Nathaniel Hawthorne, Thomas \.
Edison, and Mark NJ. POmerOy were all,
1T some period Ofthrir bOyhOod, amateur
editors; and it is well-knOwn fact that
a number of successful journalists OF the
Country began their editorial experience
ashOys with little two-penny newspapers
of their own. Since the invention OF tbs
cheaphaudpreSscs the issue ofthese anna
teur Journals has become one of the
most popular recreations of young peO-
pie.

DRY GOODS,

actual demand is much better than is APP
parent in consequence of very much
larger percentage of shipments being made
direct from the mills. Except for mems
wear .woolens, the attendtion OF buyers
has been extended to all classes OF fabrics,
Of which selections continue to be made
with much rcgularity. The advanced
price and more active market for cotton
stimulates ..the goods market and
hUvcrs are more active. Prints are being
shipped in large quantities. Prices OF
autumn prints engaged little. attention,
but with very unsatisfactory results. From
six and half cents for spring work and
higher cost for dark work indicates the price
for best goods as seven cents.

CUTTING KEIFER.

KEIFER's arrangement of the COM
mittees is subject that will not down
even ut the bidding of the Bosses. 1t
furnishes another instance of how the
most trivial matter in the conduct of an
official will disclose defects in the ma
chinery Of our government which have
been entirely overlooked since the for
nation of the Union.
1t looks like the election of Mr..
KEIFER would mark the introduction
of q radical change in the manner of
constituting the committees of the
House, as well as curtailing the enor-
nous and dangerous powers reposed in
that Official-more by virtue OF custom
and convenience than by any provision
of law or constitution.
1.-THE selection of committees and the
allotment of members to service" says
the Washington Post, "are matters
within the sole provinceof the House o
Representatives, and this power cannot
be and has not been abdicated. When
ever majority of the members so de-
termine, they may take away from Mr..
Keifer his entire authority for the selec-
ton of committees (which is his by
courtesy only, and either make out q
new list entirely or compel such aitera-
tons as they think proper. The pres
ent grivance is no slight one, and gen.
tlemen on both sides of the House have
abundant reason to complain. If by
general consent reorganization shall
be determined upon, the Speaker will
have no right to take exception. He
has abused his privilege to an unpreee-
denied and unwarranted extent, not
praeticed by any of his predecessors
within the memory of the present gen.
Grafton, and no fair person viii regret
to see his wings clipped and his preroga-
tives curtailed. The power has, by prac-
tice and custom, become almost abso-
lute, and q change ought not TO excite
apprehensions.

THE TARIFF AND IT'S RELATION To
WEST VIRGINIA.

The new departure Of Mr.. VOORHEES,
as given in his recent Atlanta speech
on the tariff question, has been the
cause of q good deal of gossip in politi-
cal circles. The Courier Journal, I'M
der inspiration of Mr.. WATTERSON,
who is presumably under the inspira-
ton of Mr.. TILDES, boldly declares
that Mr.. VOORHEES, shall be read out
of the Democratic party, because of his
recent utteranceS. This, of course,
amounts TO nothing. Mr.. VOORHEES,
was an earnest Democrat of good stand
ing in his party when WATrERSON was
working in the ranks Of the opposition,
and when TILDEN was disorganiZing
the New York Democracy in the days
of VAN buren,. Ofcourse such threats
have but little effect upon the rank and
file of Democracy, who remember with
grateful hearts the giant blows struck
by the "TaH Sycamore Of the Wabash"
for constitutional government and all
the true principles which Hnderlie the
Democratic party, In days that tried
mems sOuls-in days when TILDEN'S
and WATTERSON'S lips were sealed be-
cause of q lack of moral courage, to ex-
press sentiments they might have en-
tertained. This process OK reading out
Is not new one. 1t has been tried be-
fore, and always resulted in victory for
the Independent souls who dared to
stand up for what they believed to be
right. IT WAS determined TO read BAY
ARD cut because of his pluchy stand on
the finance question; still BAYARD is
the most trusted leader ofthem ALL Ii
has been tried here In our own State,
because of determination on the part
OF young, progressive Democrats to

CONGRESS became alarmed about the
prevalence of smallpox in 1S12-lS, and
in February of that winter passed an
act which would hardly be possible of
execution now. The President was
authorized to appoint an agent to es-
tablish magazine of genuine vaccine
matter, and to supply it through the
pOstoffiee to all applicants. Every post
master of the country was informed of
the law, and, to cover transmissions Of
the vaccine matter and correspondence
concerning it, the agent of the govern
ment and all postmasters were author
lied to use frank. This practical ex-
tension Of tender paternalism was not
attended with such results IS were
hoped. The act remained in existence
many years, but at no time was general
advantage taken of its provisions.
