For two years, perhaps, we
have had the richest, largest,
mostvaried andmostexhaus
tive collection of dress-goods
in Philadelphia. Before that,
we may have had the largest,
and even the most exhaus-
tive, but perhaps not the
richest. The slowest trade
to come to a new merchant
is the trade of luxury. 1t is
the slowest to change from
one to another. But it does
change.
We may say our dress
goods of all sorts are az
about their highest now.
Second and third circles southeast
from center.
Silks of all sorts have
come; and never were silks
more acceptable. And these
words have a meaning here
beyond any they could have
elsewhere; because of the
greater variety of wants that
look to us for supply. We
must have allaccepted styles,
and all the approved quail
ties of those styles; and, as
to colors, can you think of
one that we can do without?
A store that has only one
class of trade can get along
with comparatively few silks.
Which .Jstock would you
rather buy out of?
Next outer circle, south entrance
to main building.
Two damask towels at IS
and IS cents may serve to
show what we gain by buy
ing of the makers. The very
same towels are in the whole
sale trade in New York at
about 2I and 22 cents, which
means at least IS cents at
retail.
We are not going to say
that all our retail prices are
below New York wholesale;
nothing of the sort. More
than one swallow to make a
summer But where such
towels are to be got for IS
cents is a good place to look
for bed and table-linen, and
all the other linens. That's
what we mean exactly; its
true, too.
Outer circle. city-hsll square entrance.
A very wide and surpris-
ingly good navy-blue twilled
flannel for so cents; 45-inch.
Do you remember a 35-
cent flannel for IS cents, of
which we had 1900 yards
last fall? Afterward we got
1000 yards more of it; and
a little of it is left yet. That
is 23-inch. This wide fan
mel is fully as good as that.
Third circle, southeast from center
All the warmer sorts of
underwear are ready; for
men, women and children;
thick-cotton, merino, wool,
and silk. All the sorts need
ed for all sorts of people
with all sorts of notions;
and, for people who want ii,
there is quite a little wit
about underwear to be pick
ed up at the counter. Where
else would you look for it?
Not i'll books surely; for
goods are changing all the
time; and SO get ahead Of
books.

We clip from the Nashville Ban
ner the following as a good speci-
men Of harmonious platform:
I am one of those Democrats who
believe that this Is the year for
Democratic success. AS an hum bic
representative of the party whose
principles are as old as the Govern
ment itself, and which have been
handed down to us by our grand.
sires and sires, am In favor lust
this time Of going back on all for
mer platforms for the purpose of
bringing about harmony IN this
glorious party, and would therefore
counsel declaration OF principles
for time-honored Democracy i'm this
year of 1882, i'm words, facts and fig
ures as follows:
Resolved, That the State debt
OF tennessee is matter of sec
ondary consideration when offices
are to be filled by the honest yeo-
manry OF the Volunteer State.
That those who will, may take Il ON
themselves TO pay for this imposing
structure in which we convene in
our assembled wisdom, but for us
we want the offices, and don't you
forget it, 4-.iQ' 'u- I''
Resolved, That the clause i'm the
platform of 1880 declaring that the
Democrats of Tennessee favor a
prompt settlement by the Legisla-
ture with our creditors upon the
best terms that can be agreed upon
as the result of negotiation was
Republican trick and should never
have been introduced into Demo-
cratic convention.
Resolved, That for the sake of
harmony, the handle ought to be
dropped from the name OF Democ-
racy, and that we shall hereafter
stand before the people of Tennes-
see pure and honest Democrats.
Resolved, That for the present
year we force the creditors to accept
50-3 with the understanding that
the next convention shall have the
power and privilege of reducing
Resolved, That Gov. Isham q.
Harris, in attaching his official sig
nature to the bonds of the State,
acted injudiciously, but we are will
ing to take him back into the DEM
ocratic fold il he will consent 10
unity in the ranks of the lion-heart-
ed Democracy. I... ....
The above platform is short, frank,
and to the point. IL this, or some
thing like it, were adopted by the
present convention, a rousing vic
tory awaits US in November.

The Tariff cnmmLsSLnn.

The New York Herald, claiming
to be a neutral paper, speaks of the
tariff commission on the 9th inst,
as follows: ...... ....
Twenty-four Democratic Senators
held a conference yesterday after
noon about President Arthur's un-
satisfactory tariff commission NOM
nations. When the Republican
President heard of their proceed
| ings they must have amused him.
The unanimous opinion of the
twenty-four is reported to have
been expressed to the effect that the
eight nominees who probably ac-
cept the Presidents selection of
them (Mr. Phelps, of Missouri, has
declined) all are protectionists, and
that several of them are hired attOr-
neys of specially protected interests;
that a commission so constituted is
unfair, and that no good and posi-
tive harm will result from it to the
country. Nevertheless, the twenty
four declined to make the question
of these improper nominations
subject for Democratic caucus ac-
anu 1CCIlOCldilC
tors are already mentioned as in
tending to vote for their confirma-
ton. The plain truth is that eau
Gus resolution to oppose confirma-
tion would come pretty near to
making the Democratic party seem
to believe in something, and would
go far toward making up an econO-
mic political issue before the people.
For anything of that kind the pres
ent managers of the party have no
desire. A
We suppose that the nominations
will be confirmed, and we agree
with the twenty-tOur Democratic
Senators in having small hope Of
any practical benefits to the cOun-
try from such a commission. 1t is
composed wholly in the interest of
the producers, and neither the con-
sumers nor the wOrkingmen are
represented upon it. But we can
not make believe that we are sur
prised. We never seriously eXpec-
ted any other sort of commission.
The commission business in its in
ception was trick to postpone the
duty OF an immediate revision of
the tariff to help relieve the country
from the surplus taxation of a hun
dred and fifty million dollars a
year. We expect the trickery TO
continue TO the close.

The Outlook for Business m the South


The future of business is just now
a subject of great concern, and buSi-
ness men of all classes are anxious
ly watching to see what will be the
outcome of the present labor troub-
les, and whether trade will soon de-
velOp under the stimulating infiu-
ence of good crops, the outlook for
which is so promising. We believe
that with Il good wheat crop there
will be a return of busy times for
merchants and manufacturers but
whether this be so or not for the
country in general, it is most prob
able that for the South at least the
coming year will be one of prosper
ity. The production OF wheat,
corn, oats and other agricultural
products in the southern States
promises to be much greater than
ever, and this will bring many mill
lions of dollars to that section dur
ing the next twelve months. The
farmers of the South seem to have
learned the value of diversified
crops and have shown their change
from all cotton by giving increased
attention to breadstufls, to fruits,
vegetables, and to stock raising. 1t
is Wcll-known that manufacturing
at the South, both in iron and cot
ton, can be done much more cheap
ly than at the North and that
Southern mills can run at fair
profit and sell their products at
prices which would close almost
every, Northern mill.

The Convention.
GalIatIn ExamIder.


We print this week the proceed
ings of the State Democratic Con-
vention.
We have neither time nor space
to comment at length upon the re-
suit of the meeting. The pronounc-
ell views of the Examiner are too
well-known to its readers 10 leave
them in any doubt as TO our opinion.
We cannot subscribe to the plat
form of the convention. We can
not consent to make principle and
State honor subservient to the
Interests of mere party. The path
Of duty is plain and will be followed
unfiinchingly, and we will strive in
the future as in the past TO counsel
our people to act as rightly and as
honestly in the discharge of their
public as they would in thfr private
obligations. We have never been
able to separate the citizen from
the State, for the people are the
State and the State can do no
wrong that will not bring dishonOr
to the citizen. '..
In "A recent issue of the Examiner
we took occasion to bring forward
Gen. w. B. Bate as our choice for
Governor. His blameless personal
character, his public services and
his abilities clearly pointed TO him
as the man of the hour. But since
the platform upon which he has
been placed by the convention
enuneiates a policy which we can
not subscribe to, we find that we
cannot support him for the position.
Our love for the man is as the love
Of Jonathan for David, and we be-
lieVe 1t will never be otherwise, but
we must follow our own convictions
upon public questions. Ii would
be the greatest pleasure of our life
II we could but vote for the man,
and " scratch the platform.

If She Got There.

1t was night, Il phenomenon Oc-
curing seven times a week.
THE moon shOne bright from the
heavens. This latter clause is al
ways added, although no body ever
saw the moon shining from hay
loft or a frog-pond or anything else
except from the heavens.
Two lovers strolled along the
rivers bank, and Luna's soft rays
mirrOred their reflection in the wa
ter, disclosing the fact that her
bustle was on crooked, and that
his head alarmingly resembled an
egg.
"Fred," she murmured, choking
ly, as a great sob made her bosom
heave, "shall meet you in heav-
en- ?'
Fred stopped where he stood, and
looked her square in the face.
"Well, darling" said he softly, as
he folded her tohis breast. 81 real
ly can't tell. 1t depends on whcth-
er you go there or not"
The moon still shines on from its
high position, the water still muir
murs, but they don't any more.
Fact is they are both married, and
settled down, but they amt husband
and wife.

At West Point, it is said, two
members of the Board, Messers
Pugh, of Alabama, and Tillman, OF
Tennessee, are of the opinion that
something should be done to fill up
the ranks of the corps of cadets,
which now number 1870, and when
full, 325. Ii is stated that cadets
are not graduated fast enough to
fill the vacancies that occur in the
army. Out of over one hundred at
the start, the second class now num-
ber only forty, the class having
been thus reduced by deficiencies in
studies. Is the American school
