THE DAY THAT is COMING.
M WILLIAM MORRIS.

Then man shall work and bethink him,
and rejoice in the deeds Of his hand,
Nor vet come home In the even too faint and
weary to stand.
Man in that time a-coming shall work and
have no fear
For to.morrow's lack Of earning and tho
hunger-wolf anear.
o strange now wonderful Justice But for
whom shall we gather the gain
For ourselves and for each Of our fellows,
and no hand shall labor in vain.
Then all mine and all thine shall be ours,
and no more shall any man have
For riches that serve for nothing, but TO fet-
Ter friend for a slave. fi.ttt
And what wealth will then be left us when
none shall gather gold -.
To buy his friend in the market, and pinch
and pine the sold ?
Nay, what save the lovely city, and the love-
ly house ON the hill,
And the wastes and the woodland beauty,
and the happy fields We till
And the homes of ancient stories, the tombs
of the mighty dead,
And the wise men seeking out marvels, and
the poets teeming head. b.l
And the painters hand Of wonder, and the
marvellous fddle-bow, I,
And the banded choirs of music-al those
that do and know.
For all these shall be ours and all mems,
Nor shall any lack q share
or the toll and the gain Of living in the days
when the world grows fair.

it has no longer the peoples interests

are now using. 1t was 80 in 1855
and 1860, when the Democrats saw
that they were about TO be deposed
They no longer cared, nor were able
10 serve the country. Like the Re
publicans now, they wished only tc
retain power; and so they called them
selves 'EUnion savers, and denounc
ed the Republicans as s'abolitionists,
'Union-haters" and the assailants oi
property. The Democratic ''aboh

WASHINGTON LETTER.
lFrom Our Regular Correspondent ]
WASHINGTON. Jan. 1. 1888.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1. 1888.
Social Washington glitters to-day.
The sunlight is shut out from her
parlors. Her daughters from all
parts of the Nation are 'receiving' in
most fascinating colors under the soft
reflection of blazing chandeliers.
Her sons are bedecked with swallow
tail and immaculate tie, and order
their cabs wildly around in all direc-
tions Fastening to be received But
it is the same old routine of the first
of January custom wrought by
some concatenation of circumstances,
and one sadly carried to excess at
this social Capital. This excess is
wearing the good custom threadbare,
and each year the number of receiv-
ing and received grows smaller.
At the White House, the usual pro
gramme is being played First the
Members of the Cabinet and Diplo-
matte Corps are received, followed in
sequence by the Justices of the Su-
preme Court, Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress, the Court of
Claims, District Judiciary and Com
missioners, ex members of the Cabi-
net, Ministers OF the United States,
the officers of the Army and Navy,
Government head officials, and then
the great crowd Of American citizens
who pass down the reception line in
the red parlor, in single file, deposit
their card, and shake hands with the
Executive, without regard 10 sex,
race, age or color. This is the pleas
ure Of the President on the first day
Of the New Year. He is assisted by
the ladies' Of the Cabinet, and on the
present occasion, Mr.. Arthur has
been very liberal in his invitations b
the wivesof prominent public men tc
assist at the Executive Mansion
Among them / noticed Mrs- Blaine
Mrs- Gen Phil Sheridan, Mrs Robe
son. and Mrs. Chief Justice Waite

Fashion in civilization, or in savage
life, has strange and curious freaks
The dress worn by females OF North
ern Mexico, in fact oil over the coun
try, is a cotton or linen chemise, and
blue or red short woolen petticoai
frequently among the more wealthy
the latter is made of gaudy, figured
merino, heavy silk, imported express
ly for the purpose. These simple ar
ticles of raiment are usually made
with no little degree of neatness, the
chemise, in particular, being in many
cases elaborately worked with flowers
and different conceits, while the edges
are tastefully decorated with rufilet
or laces, if the wearer has means
enough to procure them. On first
entering the country, the Anglo-Sax
on traveller, who has been used to see
the gentler sex of his native land in
more full, and I should say perhaps
more becoming costume, feels not a
little astonished at the Eve-like and
scanty garments of the females he
meets; he thinks they are but hall
dressed, and wonders how they car
have the indelioacy, or, as he would
deem it at home, brazen impudence
to appear before him in dishabille &c
immodest. But he soon learns thati il
is the custom and fashion of the
country-that, to use common Yam
kee expression, the women "don'
know any better" By-and-bye, the
American or European, is even led to
think that the women g dress among
whom he is thrown in Mexico, is re
ally graceful, easy-aye, becoming
He next wonders how females of his
country can press and confne, twis,
and comfort themselves out of all lines
and proportions, causing the most
gracefully curving lines of beauty tc
become straight and rigid, disastrous
to health, causing danger to the off
spring, leading to an early grave, and
for what? to ruin their health and
progeny. Luxury and fashion is the
cause of an untimely death in many
cases in fashionable society.
Among Mexican women young OF
old-corsets are unknown. All dress
simple, without restraint on nature
all live on plain simple food, their
only fault is gambling and sexual ex.
cess, besides in years past intolerable
biggotry and and great ignorance
of other nations, and prejudice
against all new improvements or in
novations, and more 30 against such
as are devised by Americans.

MARCOS Avs THURsDAY

II will be the fault OF Democratic
timidity II the ridiculous pretencs Of
q sssolid South" againsta ''solid North"
makes the least headway. Such .
false issue cannot live Il the Demo
Gratis are only attentive to the peoples
wants and calmly insist on the true
issue. What the people OF this coun-
try want is tho repeal Of the needless
taxes, the abolition Of surplus reve-
nue, which exists only for the benefit
of the lobbyists, and the breaking
down OF the Chinese wall Of extreme
protection built up by the greed and
selfishness Of q few favored and cod
died manufacturing interests, which
| in the course Of years have como to
the preposterous belief that the coun-
try exists mainly to be taxed and bur
dened for their benefit &
When the Republicans in 1669-6O
aimed to limit the area Of slavery,
the pro-slayery Democratic party rails
ed against them the stupid cry OF
"Aboiitionistl" but that did not scare
the people or prevent the election Of
Mr.. Lincoln. Now that the Demo
Gratis, in their turn, aim to moderate
the oppressive and 5arbarous war tar.
| iff, reduce the peoples taxes and
strike off some Of the shackles I'M
der which both production and com
merce are PROSTATE, the Republicans,
IN their turn. raise the equally stupid
cry of "Free-tradersl" If the Dem
ocrats only do their clear duty to the
people, as sunder the leadership OF Mr..
Carlisle and his friends they can do,
this cry will not alarm anybody.
The Republican party has lost the
iniative. It has been too long in
power, and has ceased to serve the
people. It's alliance is with capital
lists and monopolists; its friends are
no longer the people, but o few rich
men who have fattened on the privi-
leges it has granted them, and who
hunger for more. The party is grow
ing old-fashioned like one Of its or
gans, the Tribune, which in the gen.
eral lowering Of newspaper prices,
aristocratically remains o high priced
3-ct. paper, dividing o percentage
of it's profit with the dealer instead
of letting the public at large, benefit.
So the Republican leaders prefer to
serve the protected manufactures
and the rich corporations, and, like
our aristocratic Republican contem-
porary, tax the people for the benefit
Of these wealthy allios, who, like the
dealers live by extortion from the
people.
The Carlisle Democrats are no
more Stree traders" than the Lincoln
Republicans were 'abolitionists. I
Their aim is to limit the area and
moderate the oppressivness of that
new system of slavery which has
grown up under the name of protec-
ton, and which EFFORTS needless tax
es from an impoverished people to
support handful of favored and
wealthy private interests We advise
the Republicans to take o lesson
from the past, and be careful not to
carry their opposition to needed re-
forms too far, lest the people; enrag
ed, shall take them at their word and
strike down that abuse, which now
the Democrats seek only, and JUSTLY
to curb and moderate. g9eH8 p

has just made its appearance. 1t is
always looked for in Washington with
peculiar interest, because it's bio
graphical sketches serve as sort Of
introduction to the new members, OF
Washington society. 1t tells what
the Senator's and Representatives say
of themselves, where they were born,
and what they have done, and devel
opes many curious facts. Senator
Butler, of South Carolina, is pro
nounced the handsomest man in the
Senate, though Mr.. Riddleberger car
dispute the palm in this respect
Senator Ingles is considered the best
debater. Senator Morgan is the best
logician. Messrs. Edmunds and Gar
land are the ablest lawyers, while
Senator Vance is the finest rhetori
clan and best story-teller. But To
return to the directory: Mr.. Morrill,
remains the patriarch of the senate,
though his colleague, Mr.. Edmunds,
is invariably taken for the Oldest
member of the body. The longest
senatorial biography is that of Mr.
Brown of Georgia, while the briefest
sketch is that OF Senator Call, oi
Florida, who occupies less than five
lines. Gen. Rosecrans sketch takes
up the best part ofa page Col. Tom
Ochiltree procaims that heis the ''first

KKNpALL's NARRATIVE CONTINUED.
On his departure, San Miguel, which
ordinarily contained some two or three
hundred able-bodied men, was left
with scarcely dozen, he having drag
ged away with him every one old and
active enough to carry lance or bow
and arrow, in the direction of the
great prairie (the Staked Plains), to
meet the force underG General Mcleod.
The room assigned us as prison
was adjoining the little adobe church
of San Miguel, with it's small belfry
and clear-sounding bell, and it's rude
turret surmounted by large wooden
cross. Had this room not. been COM
pletely overrun by chinches, which,
when night came, issued from every
crack and crevice in the walls in myr-
lads, it would have been very com
Portable Our guard was soon on the
most sociable terms with us, allowing
us to sit in front of our door, and
kindly doing any little errand which
might add to our limited stock of
comforts. In the room adjoining
ours, the two doors not being four
yards apart. lived a Mexican family,
the head Of which was asapetero (shoe-
maker). His wife was young, chat
ty, we'll formed woman, and had not
one side of her face been marked by
large, ugly red spot, would have
been exceedingly comely. Two-thirds,
at least, of the women we had seen
were more or less disfgured by these
deep red marks; and we could not
but think that nature, in this noun
tain climate, had dealt unkindly with
them, Not for one moment did it oc-
cur to us that these red blotches,
which frequently gave the coun-
tenance an expression absolutely hide
GUS, had been placed there by other
than the partial fingers of nature. I
knew that fancy frequently led the
votaries of fashion to strange and
most unseemly lengths, but / could
not believe that in her widest caprice
she had instituted such revolving
adornments for "the human face di-
vine"
On the following morning, it ap-
peared to us that the mark on the
face of our female neighbor had
changed its position. Not little did
we marvel at this; for all were sure
the spot had been on the opposite
cheek the day before, and still we
could not believe it was other than q
mark she had carried from her birth
Early on the third morning she ap-
peared before us with face not only
fair, but very pretty-not a spot or
blemish to be discovered At first
we did not recognize her, but on en-
quiring, we found all the spots which
had SO disfgured her had been placed
there by herself We told the Sc
nora Francisco that she looked much
better plain, and without that daub-
bing, and afterwards she did not be
daub herself But this custom Is
universal among the females Of New
MEXICO, probably taken from tseir
ancestors-Indizns-the females he
