Beautiful R:ut Dirty.

The Indian Of Cooper's novels no
longer exists, if he ever did live. The
red man OF the forest has his good
traits, no doubt, aud some Of his had
ones are either copied from his white
brother, or have been developed by two
centuries Of unjust treatment. But he
is not romantic being. Nor is bis
squaw. Nor is his pappoose. Nor is
the Indian maiden, a pappoose no long
er, but not yet a s4uaw. The United
Service describes one of these latter,
and one feels as though her photograph
would be more acceptable than her
bodily presence.
She was not too tall, and was finely
formed, though want of food had mar
red the once rounded contour Of her
young and shapely limbs. Her hair
was long and of q rich purplish- black.
Her eyes were large, lustrous, full OF
natures fire and brightness.
Her eyebrows were dark as her hair,
and perfectly arched. Her lips We're
full and Of vivid red.
Her teeth, like those Of most Indians,
were beautifully regular and brilliantly
white, though tooth brush had never
touched them. They seemed. however,
like all Indian teeth, to have been made
to eat raw flesh. I cannot better de-
scribe the appearance of Indian teeth.
Her cheeks ard forehead were
touched with the vermilion dye the

adornment; for t hey 800, like too many

prove upon nature. Her matted hair
fell III long elf-locks and inextricable
tangles: it knew nothing of a comb.
She looked like a savage edition of a
head I have seen among Julian's crayon
studies.
Her dusky arms were bare. A few
brass rings . ornamented her wrists.
Her dress was composed Of two rectan-
gular pieces of dark: and coarse wool
en- stuff, bordered with red, the latter is
| favorite color of Indians. These pieces
were joined at one end, place being
| left open for the head to pass through.
| A piece of buckskin bound them around
her waist. -
Her feet were small ard we'll formed,
but truth compels me to confess that
they were thickly incrusted with the
yellow mud of the Cienega. The near

made was when her path lay across a
brook which she had to ford. i /. 4, 4. ss3s

dude kept up his Irritation for some
time, but the woman gave no signs of
answering. She was rather prepos-
,sessing damsel, dressed in the latest
style, and it was evident she was not
engaged, as the dude supposed, rear
ranging the articles for show. 49,

''nust go. "

THE Democratic State platform managed to
accommodate itself to all classes regardless of
inconsistency. Here is the way it does the
business for the working classes, organized
and individually:
'HThat we recognize the right of all men to
organize for social or material advancement.
The right of wage workers to use lawful means
to protect themselves against the encroach-
ments of moneyed monopolists, and the right
to fix the price for their labor commensurate
with the work required of them; and we hold
that every man has right to dispose of his
own labor upon such terms as he may think
will best promote his interests and without
interference by any other person"
This catches the coon coming or going, as
was probably intended. But which does it
mean? For here are two ideas dramatically op-
posed in sentiment. Does the party favor la
Dor unions or does it really mean what it says,
''That every man has the right to
dispose of his own labor upon such terms as
he may think may best promote his interests
and without interference by any other per
sonp But it would not be Democratic plat
form if it were not inconsistent and insincere.
They are all modelled after the national Dem
ocratic platform of 1864, in which it was re-
solved that the war for the Union was fail
ure and that "the sympathy of the Democratic
party is heartily and earnestly extended to the
soldiery of our army" The platform of
1864 was written with cowardly
view to contingencies Had the
war really proved failure and the Union
gone to pieces despite the noble efforts and
heroic sacrifices of the armies of the republic,
the Democratic party would have been quick
to assure the leaders of the rebellion that it
had done its utmost to covertly aid them, and
the platform could have been reproduced to
prove the claim. The paragraph above quoted
is drawn up in the same dishonest spirit and
will be used to fit the occasion.

free trade with the United States will not win
converts to his theory.
But the meanest and most irrelevant thing
of this spiteful TRADE against the American

put in all seriousness:
Can you tell anything about corruption in
the custom-house in New York;
The calibre of the man who can descend to
such petty meanness is even smaller than of
him who assails the great church of God by

wickedness of one or more men connected

of any honorable man. There need not be
any trouble about this book; but it must be
thrown out of the schools as Enthusiastically
and undeserving the attention of anybody.

AN alleged cable dispatch from London re-

countess and some of her aristocratic friends
are represented as having entered into con-

keeping her American husband and business
