factory, with high basement, well lighted on the sides, the main floor being lighted vertically as well, can be to-day constructed above the foundation at sixty-fve cents per square foot of floor surface. The founda- ton can be included, on hard pan or gravel, within seventy cents per square foot. Mir. Atkinson asserts that there are villages in which destructive confagrations are sbso- lutely sure to occur, sooner or later, as re- suit of needlessly tall mills
 Representative Houk, of Tennessee is con- vinced that that State can be carried by the Republicans, and he gives good reasons for his belief. He thinks that large majority of the 157, ,OeO voters who have not gone to the polls in recent years are Republicans and that an energetic canvass will bring them out He shows that if the Republicans should make in 1884 the same proportional gain over their vote ia 1880 that they made in 1880 over their vote in 1878, they would equal the Democratic vote of the latter year. But the Democratic vote is likely for various reasons to be diminished. The managem ent of the State debt has disgusted many honest Democrats and absurd legislation affecting railroads and other agents of prosperity has developed strong feeling against the party in power. The Republicans promise, if suc- cessful, to put the States obligations beyond the reach of any repudiating legislature.

The Governor of New York.

Grover Cleveland, the present Governor of New York is looked upon by the leaders oi the De Democratic. party as the most available candidate for the presidency.
 Governor Cleveland is 6 native of New Jer- sey, and is now in his forty-seventh year. He comes from 8 ministerial family, his father and a number of his relatives being Protestant ciergymen. Grover received an academic education, after which he went to New York city as 8 clerk in some charitable institution. He soon became infected with the western fever, and on his route to his intended destination he stopped in Buffalo, N. Y, to visit we althy uncle residing in that city, who persuaded his nephew to re- main and take position in his store. Young Cleveland. however, aspired to become law yer and his relative encouraged him in his ambition by securing him clerkship with a prominent law firm in Buffalo. MT. Cieve- land was admitted to the bar in 1846, and soon thereafter was appointed assistant dis trict attorney for the County of Erie. In 1870 he was elected sheriff of the county and in 1881 Mayor of the city. His election in 1882 ss Governor of New York was a not ed triumph of his popularity with the people, his majority over Judge Folger being nearly POO, 600. Upon this fact is based his present prominence as candidate before the approaching Democratic convention, and it is claimed by his admirers, that if nominated he would sweep the Empire State with a large majority over Blaine.
 Governor Cleveland is 8 bachelor and should he become the next incumbent of the White House he will have to run the gauntlet of g second campaign with msrriageable ladies who will aspire to do the honors as mistress of the social household of the President of the United States.

KELLY AND CLEVELAND.

John Kelly, it appears, has not changed his mind about Cover nor Cleveland since the Saratoga convention. He was interviewed yesterday, and said: I am opposed to Gov ernor Cleveland, but only because I believe that there are other men who are better fitted toreceive the nomination than he. have been brought in contact with many people, both Republicans and Democrats throughout the city, and they all express wish that Bayard should receive the nomination. I hope so myself and believe that, if nominated, he would be elected. The opposition to Bayard be- cause of his so-called record is absurd In fact, think that this "bloody shirt'' busi- ness is played out.
 This from the great Kelly himself His organ, the New York Star, contained an ar- ticle two days ago which gave some reasons why Cleveland ought not to be nominated. In this article he was called one of the very weakest candidates prominently mentioned for the Democratic nomination. Two years ago he obtained the phenomenal majority of 192, 1854. To-day, said the Star, ''we are positive that he could not carry the State against Blaine" If he is nominated Tam many will Loyalty support him, of course. But 1t will be sad mistake. He developed surprising weakness at Saratoga. He has gained some little popularity among Rspub- lieans, but he has lost popularity far more rapidly among the rank and file of his own party. He has done this by signing bills 'tin flat contravention of cherished Democratic principles'' - for instance, the one making the Mayor of New York city ''an autocrat"-and by vetoing other bills that were just and popular. "Whether rightly or wrongly judged" says Mir. Kelly's newspaper, "the veto of the five cent fare bill has secured the implacable enmity of thousands in this city, and the recent vetoes of certain labor legislation have intensified the hostility His nomination is urged Brooklyn, and not one of the three is Dem- ocratic journal, The situation throughout the State ''is almost identical" In the past ten days the Star has received nearly four hundred letters from ''anti-monopolists, trades unionists and others," declaring the unaltersble determination of the writers not to vote for him under any circumstances. And the Star predicts that the convention will agree with it's opinion concerning Gov ernor Cleveland's unavailabiIity.
 All this is both interesting and important The Star puts the objections to Governor Cleveland's candidacy very forcibly. There is weight to these objections. We have been somewhat surprised by the desire of many of the independent Republicans to see Cleveland nominated

Dickens In 1S42.

Charles Dickens, when he first visited Washington in 1s42, was just entering his thirtieth year. He was 8 middle sized, some what Aeshy person, and he wore a brown frock coat, red figured vest and 8 fancy scarf cravat that concealed the collar and was fastened to the bosom in rathsr voluptu- ous folds by double pin and chain. His hair, wuich was long and dark, grew low upon the brow, had wavy kink where it started from the head, and was corkscrewed as it fell on either side of his face His fore head retreated gradually from the eyes, with out any marked protuberance save at the outer angle, the upper portion of which formed prominent ridge little within the assigned position of the organ of ideality. The eyeballs completely filled their sockets. The aperture of the lids WAS not large, nor the eye uncommonly clear or bright, but quick, moist and expressive. The nose was slightly aquiline, the mouth of moderate di- mensions. making no great display of the teeth, the facial muscles occasionally drawing the upper lip most strongly on the left side az the mouth opened in speaking. His fea. lures, taken together, were well propor. tioned, of 8 glowing and cordial aspect, with more animation than grace and more intelli genee than beauty.

Hay-Fever.
Theories as to Its Cause and Prevention pr. MackenzEe's Remedy:
 

Theories to Its Cause and Prevention pr. MackenzLe's Remedy:
 [From the London Truth.
 Sneezing as pastime-as who should take snutf-and sneezing 8 neeessity-as who should catch hay-fever-are widely different 1 things. Dr. Morell Mackenzie, of throat ce- all martyrs to hay-fever. He has published pamphlet on the subject, not merely with 8 view of inducing people to take advice,
 which believe is the objsct of most medical pamphlets, but with the view of giving in-
 formation, and even advice itself, very much
 to the purpose. The information is euri- ous and exhaustive. Hay-fever, it seems, | like influenza and cholera, did not occur in Europe in the good old times-it was one of the many blessings in the shape of brand new diseases reserved to gladden. the hearts of nineteenth century doctors, and to lead patients to them, literally through their noses I will not dwell upon the description of this irritating complaint, which the doc tor gives at some length and with consideIa ble gusto. Those who have got hay-fever can do without it, and these who have hith- erto escaped need Hot be narrowed up be- fore their time. Bostock, in 1919, first de-
 scribsd it; Elliotson did so in 1881, and after him Phoebus, of Giesssn. Heimholtz gave his views in 1869, and he was followed by many others, and DOW Dr. Morell Mackenzie takes up the parable in 1884. There seems to be little difference of opinion about the cause. It is the pollen of certain grasses and
 flowers, and the sovereign remedy is to keep away from these. Dr. Mackenzie differs from the great Helmholtz in the importance
 which he assigns to quinine, which I had al- ways supposed to be specific; but I must add that he is very prodigal in stating his own remedies. He recommends with the ut most confidence, and in great detail, valeri- anate of zinc in combination with assafestida, in pills of one grain of val, of zinc and two grains of compound assafoetida pill. doubling the dose at the end of ten days or fortnight. He also alludes to tineture of opium in cases of hay-asthma, and recommends sn inhals- ton of benzoin together with an insuf1ation for the nose of (po~dered) one sixteenth of 8 grain of morphia and one grain of bis muth. It is seldom one meets with advice half SO practical. Generally such pamphlets only hint darkly at vague preparations, give no quantities, warn people of the danger of attempting to dose themselves, and ad- wise the sufferer to call in a physician

He came home, threw up all his professional prospects, took a farm outside Glasgow, built his own laboratories and for nine years employed himself in various scientific researches and experiments chiefly connected with SsNes and their inhalation. The interior of the au.moniaphone IS, am told, oe. cupied by wicks saturated with peroxide of oxygen and free ammonia and by air chambers regulating the transmission ot these gases through . little mouthpiece into the lungs. A couple of deep in- halations will suffice for a test It wAA l confess, with profound skepsicism that l placed the little silver mouth-piece to my lips and drew deep breath.

It sets forth how he analyzed Italian air, to whose in. fuence, he said, we owe the most beauti- full voices in the world how he found il saturated with peroxide of hydrogen and free ammonia; how it occurred to him to collect and condense these gases, and cause them to be inhaled with common air in certain proportions b. people with weak voices and how the result was practically to Italianize the voice.

Woman's Devotion.

III. :. Keller, in Cambridge Tribune.
 My son, an. pa,ned to learn that you are becoming somewhat cynical in your views concerning the natural tendencies and qualities of womankind in general. Remember your mother was a woman. The only thing l can recollect at all de. rogatory to her blessed memory Is that she was too coy with rod and household boot-jack. The natural consequence is, you are rapidly running to seed, and fast becoming fit subject for condemnation by all members of your mothers sex Your mother was good woman, but she just escaped being a perfect mother when she held her hand aloof from the bump of your self esteem.
 It's a wonder to me that the Lord don't permit the spirits of departed mothers to come back to this realm just to shake the nonsense out of their of spnngs, or paddle them with the pro- verbal golden slipper.
 You sneeringly remark, in ihc casual manner akin to your class, that woman's devotion is sham. You also add that the greatest devotion of woman is laid upon the shrine of fashion. Now. my young limb of the sidewalk posture, your mother was a lady of fashion. cannot say that she wore out your fathers patience teasing for a sealskin sacque and forty dollar bonnet. 1 have no recollection of this; still, she may have done so.
 Once, well remember, you got into a street tracas and had your Grecian nose demolished of its pristine line of beauty. You ran to your mother; she applied a twenty y-dollar lace handkerchief 10 staunch your life blood, when a ten-cent towel would have sufficed She didn't stop to question the cause of the irAcas. No but she ruined that elegant bit of lace in the utter abandonment of maternal in- stinct and motherly devotion. The genuine cause of your nasal organs dis aster was-you tried to walk over poor little street Arab, who proceeded to do you up after the style set down in the volume known as "The Manly Art oi Self Defence"
 That, my son, is a sample of woman's going behind the returns to get at the cause.
 While you are burning the midnight gas, ouslly engaged Witn me nemlspner- ical worries on a green-baize table, there's light in a sensible girls parlor not burning for thee. One of these days you will open your eyes to the fact that the lusty-limbed mechanic got the dead. wood on you, also got the girl you thought you had, sure pop. Alter he's gone and married her, you'll lug around big lump of misanthropy and swe4' that woman's devotion is all myth.
 Boy, you've got to come down from your perch. There are too many of the prime articles, homo sum, floating around this part of the globe, for womer to yearn afte: such game as you are You must drop this vapid ignis fatuus o your foolish brain and buckle down to biz, else you'll get Jeff when the cake oi domestic bliss is passed.
 A woman's heart just gushes fountains Of pure devotion. If you don't receive some of the pellucid drops it's because you are proving by your daily coming; and goings that you are only worthy oi an existence which is enviroDed by tho cold walls and chilly sheets of poor ole bachelors prescription.
