STRAwBRIpGE & CLoTHIER's QUARTEREY
for Autumn, 1884, has just been received
from the publishers. Its gaily printed cover
is becoming a familiar indication that new
season is upon us. The subject selected for
a frontispiece for this number will appeal to
the majority of its subscribers, being "rhe
First Born" To those who already receive
this magazine, it will be superiluous to say
that the earlier part is made-up of instruc-
tive and interesting articles, well illustrated;
that being the characteristic feature of this
excellent publication; no light or frivolous
matter of any kind is admitted to its col
umns Turning over the leaves we notice
that the variety of subjects in which ladies
delight, is set before them in the usual
attractive manner. To keep the Eimble
fingers busy, as the evenings are growing
longer there are articles on decorated
Towels, "'EmbrOidered Cushions, ,""Knitted
Lambrequins and Counterpanes, 'Folding
Screens" sold English Embroidery, >
"How to Applique, ""Aome Art Novelties,
and several other equally fascinating topics.

example of that work. Mrs. Palmer has
very much of the style and handling of her
teacher, Lambdin, the peculiar absence of
veins in the leaves, of ridges and other mi
croscopic effects, which might with advan-
tage he dropped from the stereotyped work
Of this branch of art, are an indication of a
better appreciation of true art effects.
1t is matter for congratulation among
the artists Of Wilmington that some Of them
have been inspired to drift off from the
somewhat beaten tracks Of landscape paint
ing to figure work. However mcritorious
landscape painting may be, it should by no
means be allowed TO monopoize the taletts
of our local artists. The landscape painters
of this city stand well in their branch of art
and now the time is ripe that some effort be
made in the sister branches i'm figure, marine
painting &c. Drawing or sketching from
nature or life is something also that has not
occupied the attention due those very i'm
portant departments of art. The study of
the human figure is less attended to among
amateurs, perhaps on account of its greater
Inherent difficulty, but, the new phases Of
attraction as soon as that study is taken up,
will tend greatly to overcome much of that
imaginary objection

EVENING REST. By ]. L. Pratt. Young
Folks Library. Boston, d. Lothrop Il Co.
Price 25 cts. A simple, quiet story, whose
character is adequately expressed by the
title. Evening Rest is the name given to a
little hamlet in the Blue Ridge region of
Pennsylvania, remarkable for the beauty of
its surroundings and the lovely character of
its people. Thither goes young man from
the East to visit an uncle whom lie has
never before seen, and his experiences during
the stay make up the contents of the book.
One incident of the story is strongly dram
attic in character. y family party, ne of
the members being the y"ung man referred
to, visit coal mine. While passing through
one of the narrow passages, the guide fires a
pistol to show the effects of the echo. The
concussion of the air starts loose part of
the roof overhead and portion falls in.
The little company is shut up in the earth
with little chance OF ever seeing the light
again. They have lights, however, and
stumble acI oss some tools, and by diut of
many hours hard labor they are at length
able to communicate with their friends out
side, who are at last able to rescue them.
The author, through the story, dwels much
upon the sweet and tender influences of
home. In EceniRg Rest he creates an ideal
household and community, and strives to
show how much they have to do with the
formation of character.

PROSPERITY UNDER REPUBLICAN,
RIFLE.

The Republican party first came
into control of the national govern
ment on March 4th, 1861.
From 1860 to 1880, our popula-
ton increased from 81, 100000 to
so, 100000; more than So per cent.
And this, in spite of the enormous
loss of life caused by the Rebellion.
The number of manufacturing cs-
Establishments increased from 10000
to $4,000. The capital employed
in manufactures increased from
81, oO0,9 100000 to $2,7o9, 100000 or
nearly three fold. The wages paid
to laborers increased from $4,000
600 to S04s, 900, 900 or nearly three
fold. The value of material used in
manufactures increased from 81 ,O3l :
100000 to 1896, 100000 or more
than three fold, and the value of
products from $l,s55,OO0,OO to
IS, 1858, 100000 or about three fold.
But this enormous improvement
in our condition is not confined to
manufactures only. 1t extends to
agriculture and other pursuits as
well.
The number of farms in 1860 was
2,044, 900 while in 1880 it was A.
008,000. The number of acres in
farms increased during that time
from 4o7, 100000 to 536, O00,0OO and
their value increased from $6,60O,-
100000 to $1O,l97, 100000, while the
products of farming increased from
$246, 100000 to $4O6, 100000.
In 1860 we had 30,635 miles OF
railway. In 1880 we had S4,S93
miles, and now We have $4,000
miles.
Our exports of domestic products
dvring the last year amounted tc
1894, 600, 900. while in 1860 they amour.
ted to $378, 900, 900.
Our national debt, once an object
of profound alarm, is being paid of
at the rate of one hundred millions
of dollars year, the excess of taxes
being so lightly borne that no con,
siderable portion Of the people com
plain of them and no general de-
mand is made for the repeal of any
Of them. Indeed it is marvellous

7. That Mr.. Blaine honorably

s. That in the letters addressed
to Fisher he said he had done the

road he suffered a severe pecuniary
loss.
10. That his ruling as Speaker
was in no sense caused by his inter-

antecedent to his obtaining share
in it.
IL. That he did not rule in ia

attention was directed to it during
