Fashion Notes.


Riding habits are ungracefully short.
The Henri II. is the hat of the month.
Mother Hubbard nightgOwns are all the
rage.
\ Embroidered tussores and pongees VIII
/ be much worn.
krtse velvet brocade is = costly fabric,
priced SIS yard.
Parasols covered completely with flax
fringes are queer novelties.
The eight-pointed star parasOl bids fair
tO be a favorte OF fashion.
The latest fancy in chamber robes is
the Mother Hubbard back and PompadOur
front.
The Molere front, extending down to
the bottom Of the raglan, is feature in
these wraps.
A bias fold Of null or fine French lawn
is frequently worn on the neck instead of
the stiff linen collar.
Soft French nainsOok, plain or en-
brOidered, is the favOrite material for
white summer dresses.
Parasos are covered with squares Of
silk, and made highly ornate with en-
broidery, lace. and ribbon.
New silk stockings come in ribbed.
vertical striped, and checked effects, in
colors that match the new goods.
Easter cards come in designs and
cOlOrs showing the influence Of the latest
iancies Of fashion in dress fabrics.
One Of the richest stufs for wraps and
parts Of costumes is silk grenadine bro
caded with fFiSe (uncut) velvet figures
and flowers.
Harlequin stockings have one-half the
leg and foot in one bright OF dark color
the other half IN paler shade Of the same
or contrasting tint.
The mushroom, top and stem, seems to
have afforded some Of the art ideas of the
inventors Of new figures brocaded in vel
vet on tafieta glace silks.
Gray in all shades prevails in all kinds
Of dry goods, from dress fabrics to stock
ings, but gray is generally frightened
with vivid colors in figures, stripes and
checks.
The embroideries on new tussores and
pongees are in bright colOred silks, in
chain and back stitch, but those embrol-
dered in self colors are in much demand
by conservative ladies'.

THE ORIGINAL .sDIxIE..

The New Orleans Times Democrat gives the
flowing as the correct original of the famous
)ixie":-
ST wish was in de land OBJ cotton,
Ole times dar am not forgotten;
In Dixie land whar was bawn in,
Arly on frosty mawnin'.
"Ole missus marry Will de weaber;
Will, he was gay deceaber
When he put his arm around her
He looked as fierce as forty-pounder.
His face was as sharp as a butchers cleaber
But dat didn't seem bit to greab 'e1;
Will run away, missus took decline,
Her face was de color OBJ de bacon rine.
"While missus libbed, she libbed in clober
When she died, she died all ober;
How could she act de foolish part,
An marry man who broke her heart?
"Buckwheat cakes an cawn-meal batter
Makes you fat, or little fatter;
Here's health to de mex old missus.
An all de gals as wants to kiss us.
Nov if you want to dribe away sorrow
Come an hear dis song tomorrow;
Den hoe it down and scratch de grabbed.
To Dixie land I'm bound 10 trabel."
CHORUS.
81 wish was in Dixie. hooray, hooray;
In Dixie's land
Well take our stand,
To lib an die in Dixie;
Away, away, away down Souf in Dixie;
Away, away. away down Souf in Dixie"

Low Prices of Grain and the Tariff Issue.

The estimate given to the Senate last
week Of the probable demand for Amerl-
can wheat during the present year places
the demand likely to be made on the United
States at III, 100000 bushels, against 1885,
100000 from all other wheat-growing coun-
tries. This, it is stated, is a liberal al
lowance for the extent of the demand for
the product of the Western farmers. Ii it
continues to be true, as stated by Senator
Williams, that wheat is lower at Liverpool
than at New York, it is probable that the
Ccal for our grain will be much less than
the estimate given above. So far as infor-
nation at present attainabie enables us to
form an opinion of the coming crop in for
eign countries, the indications point to an
abundant yield, and rather above than be-
low the average Of former years. The
London Economist for February announced
a good harvest for Australia, and placed
the increase this year for the two colonies
of Victoria and South Australia alone at
90, 300, 900 bushels Within the last five
years India has trebled her exports of
wheat, and as the southwest moonsoons
have set in early, plentiful rains and big
crops are expected for the approaching sea-
son. In the United Kingdom the outlook
for good harvests is said to be exception
ally promising. Should this promise come
true its realization would to the extent of
it's truth tend to diminish the demand for
American grain, England being by far our
best customer Nor is the crop prospect
for the continent of Europe such as to en-
courage the American farmer to anticipate
a large demand and high prices for his sur
! plus grain in that quarter. The present
low price is due to his being confined to the
home market, and there is no brilliant pros
pect of his having better one. The ques-
ton for the farmer is, therefore, how in this
market he can make his grain and produce
go as far as possible in buying the various
articles for which he patronizes the local
storekeeper. Just at this point, unhappily,
he comes right up against the tariff. The
tariff fixes by law price below which the
manufacturers will not and the merchant
and retail dealers cannot sell their wares
| The price of his grain is fixed in the for
eign market where it completes with grain
produced in India, but he cannot buy at
home such manufactures as are made in
Europe without an addition to the price of
from 40 to 100 per cent. due to the tariff.
At the same time the tariff is producing a
surplus revenue which tempts Congress into
/ questionable legislation. 1t is, therefore,
good policy, as well as honesty, ON the part
of the Democrats to reform the tariff SIT
is the plain business and policy of the DEM
ocrats,' according to New York Demo
GRAFT, "to come out tiat-footed for revenue
reform" If they do not, SIS we have al
ready shown. it is not unlikely, that within
a year or two the Republican party will turn
around and itself make the reduction which
the people insist upon. While live issue
like low taxes is in reach of the Democracy
it will therefore be sheer stupidity for them
to ignore and neglect it.-Baltimore San.

What a Farce.

The Molungeon Convention, recently con-
vened in Richmond for the purpose of let
ting the country know what set of hypo-
critics. and political dead-beats they have
been for four years, set forth in great swell
ling words, their devotion to the material
interests in the State, and their great desire
to develop its resources, build up it's manu-
factories and protect the labor and indus
tries of the country. Now, is it not remark
abba that not one of these loud-mouthed
leaders ever invested dollar in these in
dustries, nor did they represent in the whole
State five hundred men who ever did. They
did not even represent the better class of
labor; not a 1.-THE of the skilled labor, the
mechanics of the State, nor did they repre-
sent its trade, nor its property. And yet,
representing its ignorance and its poverty,
they undertake TO tell the country that they
are to protect and preserve the great indus
trial and material interests of the State =
What is this party-this following of Will
liam Mahone-that proclaims that it is the
Republican party of Virginia? A number
of professional oliticians-Arthur' S officers
and Office seekers, leading the ignorant ne
grOes of the State, and a few white. men in
each county. The best men of the Repub-
lican party, Northern and Southern born,
refuse to follow or be controlled by these
leaders or their master, and the best and
most prosperous of the colored people, those
who have the confidence of men in business
and trade follow such men as W.ckham and
Dezendorf. How can such a party as this
develop anything except corruption? How
can it build up anything but politics P
Great protective tariff party, this ! Met to
save the country because they were not rer-
mitted to plumber the State .-Lynch6urg
