According to the New York Times, one of
the growing industries of the metropolis is
the manufacture of ostrich feathers. Not
more than two years ago France sent to this
country most of the shaded dyed feathers.
Now the metropolis perfects, curls and dyes
these feathers in handsomer manner than
it can be done elsewhere, and, a result, the
imports from France are chiefly confined to
the individual orders of few fashionable
importing milliners. There has been
steady increase in the Importation of
the feathers in the unfinished state for sew
eral years. Last year the imports were
SIS, 498, o24 against $4,354, 547 in 1880. In
1878 the trade consumed So, 476, AGA worth of
the feathers, and in 1879 So, 796, 451. Ostrich

And seeing that he was not seen,
he entered at the swinging screen.

Whom he observed around him then.
He ordered, as he knew he'd ought ter,
glass of pure, clear, crystal water.
He set it down, "Ah, ha,p said he,
"Cold water is the drink for me-"
And So to make it cold and nice,
He pounded in a little ice.
HealthfuI and good, sliced very thin,
| He dropped little lemon IN
And then he said, 'sswest to the sweet
And stirred some sugar in the treat.
To kind of brace the mixture up
He dashed some biSters in the cup
Then Just lee-tle whiskey-well,
Say twenty lines of nonpsriel.
And while he stirred it with a spoon
He sang, in gleeful notes, this tune
water cold water, pure and free,
Water is the drink for me-"
He raised his head loud, loud he laughed
And to the dregs the goblet quafed.
This is the new amendment plan"
Remarked the temperate Kansas man."
Then set his course. and held that day,
Due west, his calm, imperial way.

Last year Angora, in Asia Minor, was de-
repetition of the calamity, the governor de-
creed that every able bodied peasant should,
during certain period preceding the locust
Matching season, collect locust eggs at the
rate of two pounds weight per diem, and
deliver them in person to the nearest local
authorities The minimum quantity of ova
to be gathered in this manner was fixed at
1, 400, 900 pounds weight. and it was pre-
scribed that a daily fine of two piastres
should be levied upon each peasant
who should fail to fulfil the
duty thus imposed upon him. The
first day or two of the period appointed for
the collection of the ova a few rustics
brought in their quota of eggs but the
large. majority of the peasantry, far too indo-
lent to take the trouble of digging them up,
compounded with the powers that be by
privily purchasing the necessary quantity of
eggs from the officials at one piastre per kilo-
gram, and then making public delivery of
that quantity to the employees empowered to
receive it. Thus the 200 or 300 kilos of eggs
really collected and delivered by law-abiding
peasants were sold over and over again to
the shirkers These tricksters saved half the
amount of their fines, the officials pocketed a
piastre by each transaction, and the crop of
locusts for the.coming season will, in all prob
ability, turn out even finer than that which
all but ruined Angora last year.

A New York divine told his congre-
cation that there Is to much sickly, silly
sentimentality among young people, too
much small talk between lovers. The
subject of courtship is of importance to
every body. There are seventy-three
references to il in the Bible. God has
put ON the pages of his own book repeat
cd threats and commands Of the right
performance of tho duty of marriage.
When we look at the newspapers and
see the divorces we know there is some
thing socially. Now, courtship is the
first step to marriage, but lovers do not
regard It in its true light. As lovers
they talk too much silly nonsense.
They are not like Indians, who think
that that this gabble is an evidence Of
weakness in the head. Frankness, out
spoken advice, generous sympathy,
must take the place Of this small talk.
It is disgusting fact that the palaver
of lovers is worse than the purring Of
cats. denounoe the ssnseless twaddle
which is now called courtin9. A man
ought to straighten himself up when
conversing with the lady he intends to
make his wife, and with whom he hopes
to share his joys and sorrows. Wom-
en- know thing or two on this point,
and even giddy girls can admire . sin
cere, manly fellow who seeks their love.
Lovers should not 60 around the qoes-
ton, but como to it in straightforward
way. Don't insinuate thing to zach
other, but speak boldly of things that
ought to be known. If you are afraid
to speak ont squarely, go home and read
your Bible and learn yonr duty. A man
should know ~ mueh about a woman,
and q woman about Q man before mar
riage as after, then there would be An
end to divorces and fewer dead houses.
Oh, the tricks and traps If society, and
above all the traps for catching hus-
bands aud wives Why don't You let
| nature alone She would regulate
things, and all would come out right.

of it's most prominent white delegates
had pointed out unsuccessfully the
impolicy and injustice of allowing
Salt River township a representation
of only three, when all the otLer
townships had each two members.
But, as usual, until johnson spoke,
it was courAy against town, the
farmer against the lawyers, doctors
Id merchants and other citizens of
sill races, and a thing not to be toler-
ated that these latter classes should
be numerically represented. This is
unquestionably the prevailing senti-
ment except at Mexico. Even Salt
River delegates outside of that town
cannot be got to assert their compar-
atiye rights; but when the balance Of
power demanded increase of repre-
sentation, it was granted with facility
and alacrity. Of course under no
circumstances could demand Of any
sort, accompanied with threat of re-
volt, be wholly approved. What is
meant is, that republican discrimina-
ton for and against classes, in and
out of conventions and caucusses, in
great measure justified this colored
appeal, and that party has nobody to
thank for what has happened but
itself. While recognizing the colored
mans right to vote, it has systemat-
icaliy, in many instances. neglected
to select even qualified darkies for
position, and in not a few has
scratched their names on account
of their race. A~ssuredly, therefore,
from a republican standpoint, York
Johnson was abundantly justified.
Colored voters throughout the south
have helped to elect every white re-
publican that has laterly held office
in those states, and they have been
accorded neither Office nor opportu-
nifty to obtain it, except where they
have been strong enough to seize it.
They have received their education,
from the republican party, and
that instruction and example lead
everywhere to the same result-class
recognition and protection, or revolt.
But if the democracy is amused at
the prevailing three-cornered republic
can ENHANCEMENT, let it not be said
that as a party it never cared for col
ored people. Such an inference
should not be tolerated for a moment.
The colored man has of his own ac-
cord persistently attached himself to
the republican party, and it is the
mission and business of the democracy
to distract, and, if possible, to defeat
that organization, as it is of other
parties to overcome what is opposed
to them. 1t is on this account anC
no other that the colored republican
and his party are laughed at. The
democracy simply occupies the posi-
ton of an entertained spectator, a:
would the greenbacker also, but fol
the-to them-tremendous conse
quences of what has TRANSFERRED. L
things so on as they have commenced
there will be a revival in the republi
can party and a return to its frs
love but if our colored people will TAX
the LEDGER's advice, they will no
organize upon the color line. TIL
sooner that is abandoned the bette
will it be for them.
