and when this obligation is discharged the
honest member of society thanks his stars
and takes courage How different all this is
from the visiting and the unconstrained
social intercourse of the olden time! The

THE MODERN DINNER,

Nowadays an invitation to dinner is like a
draft 1t is to be honored at sight, but usually
with three days grace. Unless the re-
ceiver honors the demand, or furnishes q
reasonable excuse, he may be said to have
repudiated his obligations. II is purely a
business affair, this dinner-giving and din
ner-accepting transaction. Most families
keep set of books in which all dealings of
the sort are posted with mathematical accu-
racy. Single men, who have no helpmate to
remind them Of their engagements, post their
dinner cards where they may be seen every
morning, stern monitors of the days pleas
ures." Then there is the call which must be
paid by the invited guests within seven days
after the dinner has been eaten or declined

CLOSING or slse Exposiaion.


The following is an extract from
the speech of Moses Gibson, Esq, o.
Louisville, Ky, in Judges Hall, Inter.
national Cotton Exposition, on thu
part Of exhibitors, welcoming the
Louisville Board of Trade. After re.
ferring in high terms to the great
business interest of his city-present-
ing some astounding figures for tie
mental digestion of his hearcrs-Mr
Gibson facctiously proceeded:
"And new, gentlemen, if You wish
to live virtuous and die happy, drink
good old Bourbon; wear Kentucky
jeans; ride and haul your produce in
Old Hickory wagons; smoke Black
wells Bull Durham tobacco and ciga-
rettes; be sure you have everything
You buy and sell weighed in Howe's
celebrated scales, which have taken
more prize medals than any others in
the United States; and do not fail,
under any circumstances, to visit the
grand display of the Williamantic
Spool Cotton Company, in Machinery
Hall, before yOn return to your homes.
In conclusion, gentlemen, standing as
we are to-day amidst the clashing Of
machinery and the whistling of en-
gines, and surrounded by the mechan-
ical genius and industry of thirty live
States, let us proclaim new DECLARE
tion of independence; it will be COM
posed of but six words-no North,
South, East or West, and in this hall,
dedicated to industry, with the flags
of all nations hanging over us, and
with the stars and stripes in our hands,
and in the presence of one of the
greatest calamities that has ever befal-
len the human race, let Us honestly
renew the obligations of our child
hood, to shed the last drop of our
blood in the building up of our coun-
try, and in the maintenance of Ameri-
can liberty"
