gift quarter; a place where
just a little use is made the
vehicle for a great deal OF
luxury. 1t is full now; full
of wonders; full Of pretty
things; full of silly things;
full Of surprises; full of what
nobody expects; full of what
everybody expects; full, as it
has been full near Christmas
time before.
Beginning at the very CEN
ire of the store, next north
are two counters, one of
them very large, and one
half as large, filed to over
flowing with perfumeries and
other toilet articles and
implements. We positively
must not begin to mention
names, nor even classes.
The only way to get away
from these miraculous things
is to break away.
Next northwest is col
lection of small things that
people used to luxury will
recognize under the name
small leather articles. About
the biggest thing there is
portfolio or writing-case.
Pocketbooks are the com
monest. But such pocket
books Oh, yes you can
get good substantial pocket
books there, with not a cent
of extravaganza in them
but naturallywe are thinking
Of the brighter ones. Leather
isn't fine enough. They must
enamel it, paint it, deck it
out with silk and shining sill
yer and gold. Every year
people get worse and worse.
Every year they must haXe
stranger and stranger things.
Silk, plush, velvet and fur
bags are there, with all their
pretty and handy and cum
ming fastenings. But we
must hurry on.
Next northwest arc writ
ing-papers. Here's room
for a treatise. We're not
going to stop. But anybody
who passes that white-look-
ing island of trade in the sea
OF people, without flndint
out what WaNamaker Best
means, in or out of Holiday
time, is a loser. What a
glory has a page Of pure
paper
Photograph albums are
next on northwest; and here
the circle widens. Is all
that long row photograph
albums $? Is it possible that
SO many people didn't buy
albums last year, when we
brought over a ship-load
almost? There's a new set
of people this year, may be.
At least the photographers
haven't gone out of business.
At this end are velvet
frames yonder are boxes
of leather and plush. You
can pay 500 for a box that a
touch will spoil. Don't sup
pose that the things put out
to show, even under glass
are the fine ones. Whisper
to the saleswoman that your
pocket is full Of money, and
that you are aching to get
rid of it.
Brass and bronze! Oh,
see the mob Of brasses and
bronzes. Open your die
tionary. The first word you
come to has its image there.
Preposterous ehings Have
your wits about you. An
artist has studied out every
one. The artists a wag too;
for jokes abound ; little
touches of humor and broad
farces. So there is pathos
and beauty everywhere. But

A correspondent of the New York Times
who signs himselfa staff Officer asks
some very tough questions in connection
with General Grant, defense of FitZ John
Porter, in the current number of tho
North american Reeieao. Gen. Grant S
defense of Porter's alleged disobedience
of orders turns upon the point that the
latter knew that lie was confronted by an
overwhelming force under Longstreet, OF
whose presence Pope was ignorant.--
Whereupon the Times correspondent pro-
pounds this hard conundrum " II Por-
ter, before or after Mcdowell left him on
the Goth Of August, was under the i'm
precision that an overwhelming force of
the enemy was Immediately in his front,
why did he not, when left to himself, take
measures to ascertain the fact beyond any

gently to Gen. Pope, whose latest dis

The session Of Congress which opened
on the 4th expires by constitutional limi-
tation on the 4th of March next. In con-
alteration of the importance of the legis-
UCiuic SouStVos "hu Nho ShVtphoo,
of the session, Senator Harrison, of In
diana, says he will oppose the usual ad
journment oftwo weeks during the Christ
mas holidays. In the long session the
time belongs in &c, tain measure TO the
members, who get the same pay whether
the session runs through the whole sum
mer; but the short session, which is
limited to three months by the Constitu-
ton, belongs to the public, and the i'm
portant legislation in which they are con-
cerned should not be risked by a holiday
adjournment of two weeks. By making
diligent use Of the time Congress may be
able to repeal the internal revenue system
and also make needful revisions of the
tariff. But an adjournment win give a
great advantage to members who will seek
to obstruet the passage of these import
ant measures.

COMMUNAL INFELICITY.

This afternoon, a well-known Journalist,
insurance agent, etc, made application
Squire Chopper for the arrest of his wife
on the charge of larceny. His statement
showed that his wife and himself had sep
arated several times and had as often
agre ed to live together again. Yesterday
the last trial occurred. The woman came
to Rock Island with her little girl, and
agreeing to behave herself hereafter, was
taken once again to the arms of her hus-
band who declared his entire willingness
to make one more earnest attempt to live
happily with her. AS first step toward
reconciliation he went out and bought ten
dollars worth of silver and other parts of a
household equipment, and prepared
once more to enjoy the comforts of home
This morning however, the woman turn
ed up missing" her trunk, the silver pur
chased yesterday and several other articles
ditto and it was learned that she had taken
G. II. 81 P train for Chicago. Tele-
grams requesting her arrest have been
sent to Joliet and Chicago, and it is quite
likely that she viii be intercepted some
where and returned here.
Meantime it is not yet fully determined
that she can be imprisoned for an
alleged theft from her husband and at a
late hour this afternoon the authorities are
being oyerhanled for some light upon the
subject
