As I viewed her at the new game, on the secluded lawn of Washington Heights residence. she wore what learned on inquiry was Q basque, made of stockinet cloth, which fitted her body very closely. To be exact in small particulars, it was double breasted, and had stand up collar and lapels like mans coat. Its fsmininity was well es- tahIished, however, by small sash, draped at the back.

The Memphis (Tennessee) Appeal is in l earnest in it's desire to have the South repre- sented on the Presidential ticket. It says :: Personal pique, and personal ambition, and makers of tickets we have plenty of, but
 leaders with the courage to lead the party out of this confusion are not heard of, be- cause the statesmen of the South occupy but an advisory position in the Democratic party, and are only per mitted by bugaboo of sectionalism to pledge the votes of the South to any ticket the
 Northern Democrats may nominate They cannot propose a national nominee, because for the South to select 8 ticket would be to
 invite campaign upon the assertion that is
 was to be manipulated by the South, and
 that is as bad in the eyes of the Republicans
 as to present Southern men for the Presidency
 or Vice-Preeidency. The South is thus si-
 lencsd, is thus denied it's equal participation in the legislation of the Democratic party; it
 is politically paralyzed. This policy of cow
 ardice has been pursued ever since, in 1868,
 that sisunoh, brave, cultivated gentleman,
 Governor Seymour, was nominated. The
 once national party is now sectional-it Is dominated by Northern men who represent
 factions whose highest ideal of the usefulness
 of party In free country Is te make up a
 ticket that will win. The curse of this cow ardice must be removed The South, assert
 ing itself in the councils of the nation, taking it's place In the House and the Senate, trusted
 by the North to pass upon the most import ant measures of legislation that have ever
 been voted upon in the national Legislature,
 must assert it's right to be equally trusted in
 the councils of the Democratic party, and f must assert it's equality in that party and test
 the sincerity of the Northern States by the
 nomination of Southern statesman for Vice
 President in 1884.

The Prohibition party in Massachusetts is behaving in very disagreeabls way. It's State committee has just issued an address
 which declares that mo sensible person real fly believes that the nninutest danger threat
 ems the State by the election or defeat of either candidate, except it be from the rum
 power, and the success of either Republican or Democrat will not affect the full prosper
 ity which that interest now enjoys" The address also contains the following rather strong paragraph: We say not word in de- fense of Butlerism, we are mindful of all it means. But who arc they that stand in such
 holy horror of this ''materialized'' spectre and pronounce 1t ''cheat,n 8 thing of ''spoils," an ugly "beast," which emits only putrid defamation of the fair fame of our commonwealth? What party is this, we ask, that parades itself as the sole guardian of the State's good name? We answer, the party which has fer years studiously practised deception and cruelty misIed and debauched the great moral sentiment of the State until 1t seems as though it was nearly ready to bow down and surrender completely to the puffed up and arrogant rum power which this party has nurtured by granting to it all the legality it possesses to day. .s..5
