Blooms of other Days.

Boston Transcript.
There is nothing new under the sun.
'The Presidential boom" is only a new
name; the thing existed as even as far
back as Monroe's Administration, when
the "era of good feeling" outwardly so
serene, was honeycombed with personal
intrigue, jealousy and backbiting among
possible candidates for the succession.
Indeed, while nearly the whole Cabinet
family of the President whose name is
popularity synonym for peace and good
will, were continually dealing one anoth-
er intimate blows under the fifth rib
as when Clay antagonized ]. @. Adams
policy at critical mOments-a most per-
feet specimen of a modern "boom" was
developed by the stolid but crafty Craw-
ford, of Georgia, whose whole talent,
like that of so many of our contemporary
statesmen, ran to the organizing of his
personal following and the picking up of
delegates.
Again the same things appears in the
passages in the memoir of ThurloW
Weed where it is related how near
Daniel Webster came to the Presidency
on two occasions. In the Spring of 1889
Mr.. Weed went to Washington and call
ed Mr.. Webster into the cloak-room at
the capitol. Il think I shall be the

Weed expressed doubt. "Who, then,

to me like Harrison" said Mr.. Weed
Mr.. Webster declared that Harrison
stood no chance. "You are misinform-
ed" he said. "The party will choose g
man with a longer civic appearance, who
is better adapted to the place." "The
question is" said Mr.. Weed, "Who will
poll the mosL votes?" well" said Mr.
Webster, every well; but what does this

1t is said that the Mexicans are so lazy
that they don't take the trouble to get
off the railroad track when a train is
coming. They prefer to be assisted by
the cowcatcher.

There are a great many Americans

When a married woman buys a pug
dog for low price she gets a bargain

The Bethany (Mo.) Republican tells of
certain old widoWer who offers any
one $50 that will get him a wife. This
being leap year, and good looking Wom-
en- unusually plentiful in Missouri, we
have an idea that the old widower's
countenance greatly resembles that of a
sugar cured ham.
A shreWd observer explains that when
! a lover leaves the house of his adored

walks musingly homeward beneath the
twinkling stars, his fond fancy pictures
her clothed in white samite, resting
sweetly on her pillow with unbound
hair tossed about her sleeping face, and
angels bending over her couch whisper
ing heavenly dreams. Perhaps at that
very moment she is in the pantry gnaw-
ing a crust, or sitting fat on the floor
pairing her corns.

"Most of Wildes money that ne mace III
