Something About the Rising Blossom
OF the Period.

80 flower for a long time has become

foM2f. Ii has climbed into our fayur
AMI taken possession of our homes. our
garden and our dress. and is every
where the sentinel of art and fashion
and of right. for il is not on V 4 drcora-
tive and useful flower. but bears good
religious character. being aS Chris ian
flower dedicated to 81. Bartholomew.
st. Louis (king) and ST. An,radiS. and.
as 4 pagan emblem, the sacred flower of
the ancient Perilvians, who were wor-
shippers of the sun.
Its resemblance to the god of dav and
its supposed homage to the rising sun
made it their emblem of faith. and on
this account it WAS greatly used in their
religious ceremonies, and the virgins
who oiliciated in the temple of the sun
were crowned with suniiowcrs made of
pure gold. and carried them in their
hand, and fastened their robes with
them.
In Persia and other lands of the East
the sunlower is the emblem of constan-
cy in love. and there are many poetical
illusions in Eastern literature to the
flower that always turns its face toward
the sun.
The first mention we have of it in En-
gland is from Gerard. i'm 1896. when he
tells us that in his garden he had one
that has grown to the height of II feet.
which produces flowers measuring Ii
inches over. In Spain and Mexico they
grow to the height of 20 feet. some of
the flowers measuring four feet in diam
cter, and a single flower producing =, 3G2
seeds.
Botanical authorities say that there
are nearly fifty species. Among those
which are best known are the tall sun
flower of Peru and Mexico, the peren-
nial, a native of Virginia. and the dwarf
sunilower, brought as late rs 1873 from
Egypt.
The seeds. when peeled, taste like
sweet almond. They make IN excellent
bread of them in Portugal. and during
the late war. in the Southern States.
they We're substituted for coffee in many
II frontier cabin. They are good food
for poultry, and the oil pressed from
them is frequently used in place OF
olive oil for salads; it can also be burned
in the lamp, and is splendid for soap
ulthiHS.
The stems and flowers when burned
produce q good potash, and many
housewife in Texas has superntcnded
the burning of sunilowers to obtain the
potash for her weeks baking with as
much care rs she did the baking itself
In Texas the sunilower pulled at sun
down with wish is sure to bring the
wish true before the next sunset $50 the
Indian says), and no true Texan will
have garden without at least one of
these 'mirnic suns in it. TO dream
of them signifies that you will have your
pride wounded; and negro, if he has
this dream, will never rest until he has
pulled suntlower to counteract the
omen. And in some parts of the South
a negro will not let you bring into the
house sunllower that has been pulled
before it is perfect or one that is in any
way brOken.-Harper'S Weekly.

THE oZIo REvoLU TON.

Ohio has gone Democratic by majority
variously estimated at from Is 900 to 80
600 Whatever the size of the majority,
the fact of the political revolution is the
same. Ia 1872 OHIO gave Grant $1,000
majority. In 1876 Hayes only carried the
State by 900 maj 1risy. In 1850, with four
tickets in The field, Garfield had a majority
of 80 600 over H hancock. In 1881 Foster was
elected over b Iokwslterby q 600 majority.
In 1852 the Republicans lose - State; their
great majorities disappear altogether, and
change of opinion to the extent of from
$4,000 TO 10 900 votes, is made apparent.
This revelation cannot be a3cribad to any
single cause. Several agencies combined to
produce =. PromiHent among these must
be placed the prohibition issue, which lost
the entire German vote to the Republicans,
or the greater part Of that vote. 1t is said
that the Issue was SO timidly handled as to
offend the Germans without enlisting the
active support of the temperance element
Besides this there was the demoralizing
effect of the " Bnssism existing in other
States. Tne politics CT New York and
Pennsylvania undoubtedly reacted upon
Ohio, aud contributed to bring about the
overthrow of the Republican party. Nor
must il BE- ignored that feeling
of deep dissatisfaction with the course
of the party managers has of late been
growing all over the country. Hubbelrs
shameless assessment of the Federal en-
ployes; the war upon Cameronism in
PenusylvanIa the want of regard paid to
the policy and preferences of President
Garfield the absence of distinctive
issues between the two parties and a
prevalent disgust at and WEAKNESS
OF the dishonesty OF machine pol.
itics-all combined to dissolve party ties,
and to render the Prohibition issue uppre.
cedentedly effective in changing votes.
Toe Republicans have succeeded in eiecting
several Congressman whether Inoiety
or more of the State delegation cannot vet
be ascertained. But they have lost the
State, and under circumstances which will
make it difficult for them TO regain it.
This disaster will OF course react upon New
York and Pennsylvania, where already all
She signs point to similar outcome. 1t is
IN fact a very serious and important event,
and its significance cannot be disguised or
denied,

through such abortive discussions tina,
Congress will ever be led to adopt tariff
reform, to repeal the navigation laws, or te
introduce any practical changes in the
existing laws. In fact such meetings only
tend to assure the hide.bound Protectionist.

ANoTHss TICKET TALKED OF

And'now Taxpayers Ticket is being
talked of in San Francisco, the talk indi.
eating that the voters are not satisfied with
the action of the contending Republican
factions, and THAT they put no confidence
in either of them. This is not wonderful,
when it is remembered that they have been
abusing one another like pickpockets for
weeks, and that in spite of this abuse they
are new about to fall in one ancther's
arms. 1t is impossible to believe in the
sincerity OF such politics as that of the two
Conventions aud even if the idea of a
Taxpayers ticket should not be carried out
is is clear that great deal of dissatisfac-
zion will remain in the Republican ranks,
and will find expression at the polls.
