To The Eiitor n tie RegiEler:
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, August 90
The change in the administration has moi
affected the sulphur water here. 1t goes
right on smelling just as it did when the
Republicans were in power, and just as
many people, say fourteen hundred, are here
drinkingit il produces kind of civil
service reform on the constitution, and shuts
out whisky for the time. The hard times
you hear OF are not discussed at this place,
and The number Of visitors, the quality Of
female attire and ornaments, and the fre-
quency of handsome and expensive enter
tsinments indicate that times" are greatly
slandered, and are not so tight. Must have
sobered up some.
Charity as it is generally understood, has
come in during the season for considera-
ton, and some two weeks ago tableaux OF
living beauties were presented for the delec-
tstion of the admiring multitude, the pc
Culinary residlum being passed over to the
churches. Miss Ross, Of Mobile, is entitled
TO the origin of this very praiseworhy
scheme, and her own beauty and that Of
Miss Cullen, of Richmond, Miss JeRett, of
New York, Miss Nicholson, of Washington,
aud q dozen or 30 others made the most
lovely pictures to gaze upon. The average
bachelor drew breath as long as a fishing
pole as his eyes fell upon the rapidly and
gracefully arranged groups. Il Westeruer
was heard to complain that girls had
10 right to look 80 lovely, while August
pork promised so little That is probably
a new association Of the Beauty and the
Beast" The next good work FOR sweet
charity was
A Mule Race.
The entries are furnished in order that your

Tue net profits were considerable, and the
minister who has to stop his discourse here
after while the brayipg mule tied outside
completes bis melod Gus carol, will at least
have the satisfaction of knowing that his
contestsn; has put teyeraI boards on the
building.
