proposition to enlarge the committees
very truthtuily and p%ertinently said:-
'sMr. Speaker, in conclusion, 1 ask So

New territories are knocking at u
doors for admission into the sisterhood

The country demands action on great
questions of interstate commerce.
Means should be devised to place our
shipping once more upon the high seas

Proved to A Dot"

The ability of the average understand ing to follow Mir. Emerson through one of his lectures, and tell afterwards what the real gist of 1t was, suggests compari- son with the old lady's accuracy who undertook to repeat notable recipe for cooking "coon." After minute de- scription of the method of dressing, the seasoning, etc., to make one's mouth water, her conclusion was, And then and then-you bile it or bake it, I for git which," B. P. Shillaber, writing to the Hartford (Ct.) Post, tells how bus mess man reported Emerson.
 One of our merchants, a very nervous man, who had directed his mind more to the sale of dry goods than intellectual cultivation, had a ticket to hear Mr. Elm erson given him, which he improved, and sat without moving a muscle till the close, apparently delighted.
 The lecture was upon "Chance," in which the lecturer took almost if not quite, evangelical ground regarding mysterious ProvidenceS which control human affairs, though not, may be, in the same terms.
 Chance, however, as an agent, was at discount, but not an impossibil- ity, and full of the beautiful parts which he had comprehended, the dry-goods man next day was enthusiastic in his explanation.
 'Well," said he to friend, ''I had q treat last night, let me tell you.''
 What was it?"
 ''Oh, Jim Gates gave me ticket to hear Geo. B. Emerson -lecture.'
 'You mean Ralph w. Emerson, don't you?"
 ''Yes, that's what I said. Twas cap- ital."
 Chance and the way he handled it was masterly. His illustrations were very fine. For instance, ship on the sea with her sails blown away, her rud- der unshipped, the sea making clear breach over her, and arriving in port, saved, through it all. It was grand. "
 Well, did he show how she was saved?
 ''Yes, he proved to a dot that twas either by Providence or chance, but l couldn't exactly make out whichr'

Plantation Life in I,onisiana.

On the plantation each negro has little patch of land, which is his to cul- tivate and sell the products. as long as he remains here. This gives the labor CTS a little interest in their work, pro- notes competition and zeal, and retains them on the plantation. It is negro nature to shift about from place to place. These laborers at Belle Grove are the genuine plantation negroes, hay ing been born and reared here. They are a ''happy-go-easy-tak for-the-morrown race. ''Jeff'' is acase. He is about 10 years of age, very black and very bright. His feet reflect the suns rays and are always seen before his head. His office is to feed the chick ems, turkeys, dogs, and cats, brush soiled linen, black boots. pick bouton- nieres, run errands, and at dinner or breakfast to take a long palm-leaf branch and slowly fan away the flies. 'Mary" has just taken 'iigion." She says the minister ''gives her prayers" and that saves her from "de debbil." Here is a portion of her daily prayer: ''Member the landlord of the plantation is most particular manner Hold him in the palm of thy right hand; make him such q man as he orter be; rough shod his feet with the pepperation of di- vine grace; hang his tongue on the gos- pei hinges. And now, LOT, when Thou done 'memin' him and all roun' de world. member poor ungrashus me, and hear my unworthy groans." If space would allow, we might mention other appeals equally as forcible which drop ped spontaneously from the mouths of ''Christses chillun." Sunday I attend ed their meeting. Suffice it to say that such expressions as, ''Ise gettin' hot" Hold me, Brudder Washington" Sis ter Davis, hold me down." were many and emphatic, and accompanied by lively clapping of hands and frantic gestures, which increased in tone and measure as they grew "hotter.'' Dur ing my sojourn at Belle Grove l saw nearly every characteristic of darky life, even to one of their most fashiona- ble ''break-downs." Sway your love ly partner," Hug her tight" "Ise used to when Ise boy" Promenade, take your time," "Get up dere, you gal" "Leave your lovely partners on de flo," etc., were the words which reached us as we stood looking on. It was novel sight, and one I shall not soon forget NeU Orleans Picayatne.

Fashion Notes,

They tell of young lady at Long Branch who has 125 dresses
 London fashion authorities say that brides hereafter are to discard the long train.
 Pretty breakfast caps of red silk. edged with lace, are worn by young married ladies at watering-place ho- tels.
 Blue, red, and white flannel hats, of the Buffalo Bill shape, are extensively worn by young ladies at the seaside.
 Cheap materials covered with expen- sive trimmings is one of the inconsist- encics of fashion in ladies' dresses.
 Don't talk any more about overskirt and looping, but of ''drapery," which is the word circulated by all first-class modistes.
 Wristlets of gay colored ribbon, tied in bow and having streamers, are ''all the rage" among the ladies at the fash ionable Summer resorts.
 A new shade in cream color now much seen in dress materials answers to the name of fresh butter" It is acompro- mise between yellow and ecru.
 Women's dress nowadays approaches so nearly to the male standard in sim plicity, says a London writer, and fit- ness, that little is left to be desired.
 Baltimore young maidens appear at Cape May in red skirts, dark military sacques and red turbans. They carry a Sultan sunshade of Turkey red, and fan half a yard wide Huge punches of red and white roses worn by the ladies in their belt this sea- son are of artificial flowers, but so clever is the deception that only close ob- server can detect it.
 One sees considerable coin jewelry this season-bracelets, necklaces and bangles made of United States gold and silver pieces. A lady of Long Branch wears a necklace made of $10 and $20 gold pieces.
 Shrimp pink is one of the fashionable colors of the day, and it is to be said of | it that it is very trying to the complex ion, fact in itself not likely to perpet- uate its popularity. Another color in high favor is lobster red'
 Carriage costumes seen at Newport are very beautiful, of the richest mater ials, and the most expensive trimmings. Bonnet, parasol, gloves, in fact every thing corresponds in hue color and what may De calleu general elegance.
 Wraps and mantles this Summer arc if anything, handsomer and more styl- ish than ever, q trife eccentric, per. haps, in cut and trimmings, but pretty nevertheless. Those of gray cashmere with the ball or tassel fringe are especi ally stylish.
 Newest coaching hats are something of modified Gainsborough of fine white straw and exclusively trimmed witt long, white, waving holding plumes.- They are called the ''Mackay," presum ably after our rich countrywoman who lives in Paris.

A Girls Experiment..

The presence of big black bear in the neighborhood of Butler, Ga., recent lv. has given occasion for several local scares and number of newspaper ar- ticles. Miss Mary l.. Groat, a young woman who lives in that vicinity, near Reynolds, decided few days ago to make use of the bear in order that she might test the courage and devotion of two rivals for her hand. She planned that her brother, disguised in buffalo robe, should appear in q certain grove during twilight that evening and that both lovers should be with her at the time. The young men were glad of the opportunity to be with Miss Groat, neither suspecting that they were to pass through the crucible and come out either refined gold or "306'' medal met al. Sammy Great, the bear. was de- lighted with the scheme, feeling that he could roar her ''as gently as a sucking dove' or as thunderouSly as a cyclone in the wild west. When the sister saw the disguised brother poke the bear s head over some busEes she pointed to- ward the object. Both lovers looked and saw the masqueraded youth. To Miss Groats surprise. however, each made for the animal and the discharge of three or four revolver shots added to the surprise. The bear took to his heels, and the young woman frantically ap- pealed to her lovers not to shoot. Sam my got home without scratch, and shortly afterward the romantic girl, with an adinirer at each hand. also returned, all considerably excited by the incident.

That was a funny mistake made by the London Duly Telegraph in its ref erence to the Convention of Dunkards held at Arnold, Ind, month ago, and which was attended by 10000 represen- tatives of the various Bunker churches in all parts ofthe Union. The Telegraph misread the cable dispatch and pub lished . long editorial abusing the bad taste of Americans in calling a conven- tion of 20,000 drunkardS, and asking in grave irony what was the precise degree of whiskyfaction that qualified one for admission to the body. The writer of the article took the view that the only possible explanation for such gather ing was that some superzealous body of temperance men had called the conven- ton to show the evil effects of drinking, to the same purpose that the Greeks used to hold up drunken Helots as warnings to their sons.

A Clever Cheat,

Henry Keys, who left the Pioneer Park, Oakland, Cal, recently, played trick by which he realized S65 for forty gallons of water. Wishing to sell out, he ''doctored' barrel so as to dispose of it as full of pure whisky. He ar ranged in the barrel piece of hose two feet long, with one end dramatically sealed. He then filled the hose with quart of the finest whisky-old, oily and rich. He then fastened the unsealed end to the faucet on the inside, headed up the barrel and filled it with water. Ready was he for purchaser for ''forty gallons of rare old whisky" and Max Marcuse proved . willing customer. Marcuse sampled the liquor drawn from the hose, pronounced it good and bought the barrel for S65. After drawing a few drinks the supply in the hose gave out, and an examination showed the deception. In the meantime Keys had left the town, and he has not been heard from. Two warrants await him-one for obtaining money under false pre- tenses, and the other for disposing of fixtures in the Pioneer Park which are said to belong to the estate of Michael Reese. Max Marcuse is figuring how much to charge profit and loss in his ledger for the purchase of one barrel, two feet of hose, one quart of whisky md forty gallons of water.

This variety of clover was introduced into the United States for the purpose of atfording food for bees. As honey producer it has hardly any superior. As a forage plant it possesses many advant- ages over both white and common red clover. The former is of little value except for pasturage. It is not adapted to great variety of soils and it requires several years to obain good stand of it. When once established it remains in the soil a long time, which can not be said of red clover. The common red clover is certainly very valuable crop, but it requires good management to con vert it into hay and much of the stalks will not be eaten by most kinds of stock, Swedish clover stands between the red and white varieties in respect to size and can be converted into hay better than either of them. The failures with it have chiefly resulted from sowing the seed on soil unsuited to the growth of the plant. It does best on quite moist soils, where neither white nor red clov- CT does well. Soil on which red-top does well is admirable for Swedish clov- CT. It seems to require permanent moisture. An Iowa farmer who has been experimenting with it pronounces it superior to both common red and mammoth clover for food for hogs. He prefers raising it in field adjoining a hog pasture, cutting it every day and taking it to the yard, to allowing it to be eaten off in pasture. He says it will yield four crops per year and that hog; will eat every portion of the stalks il they are cut at about the time the bios soms appear If not allowed to lodge or become quite mature it can be cu very easily, and by feeding it out al will be eaten without loss. If hogs TUT over it in a pasture much of it will bt wasted
