The serial and short stories have strong dramatic

pernicfous vulgarly sensational; the papers on
natural history and science, travel and the facts of
life, by writers whose names give the best

athletic sports, games, and pastimes give full in
formation these subjects. There is nothing cheap

Some of the Democratic papers are
talking of Fitz Hugh Lee as candi-
date for Vice President in 1888. We
are not prepared to believe, however,
that this country is yet ready to see a
Presidential campaign conducted as a
Rebel cavalry parade. While it would
give unspeakable joy to the Democrat
ic press Of the North to see the windy
Rebel in the place Of the Copperhead
Hendricks, we think that blissful cup
will be withheld yet for time.

SOUTH WASMINGTON.

Detective Carter, assisted by several mem
bers of the police force, made a tour of the
'fencen houses in this section yesterday In
search of goods stolen from the carpet
store Of Julius Lansburg by Theophilus
Clark, his trusted porter. 1t is supposed
that the bulk of the stolen goods were dis
pensed with by Clark in this section. At
the house Of G. d. Mcfarland, colored,
corner of Second and G streets southwest,
the officer found five rolls of new mating
tackled to the floor, which Mcfarland
acknowledged he bought from Clark. The
mating was taken up and carried to the
station-house. The officers will search sew
cral other places In this section for more OF
the stolen goods.
The regular monthly meeting of the board
Of directors Of the South Washington En-
dowment Relief Association was held at the
associations rooms, corner Of Eighth and @
streets southwest, last night. Seven appli-
cants were admitted to membership, after
which the board proceeded to transact the
usual routine Of business, The association
is in most prosperous condition.
A sneak thief entered the hallway of
house No. 1851 B street southwest last
night and stole an overcoat valued at $50,
the property of Mr.. j. j. Busey. Several
similar robberies occurred in this section
during the past week.
The law governing the regulation of
hack and cab stands is being enforced by
Police Officer Joseph Acton at the stand in
front of the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad
station. Yesterday he arrested Martin
Lynch, cab driver, for violating the rules
In soliciting trade. Lynch was released on

GENERAL STANLEY ON POKER.
His Opinion in Another Gambling
Case Against an Onicer.

His Opinion in Another Gambling
Case Against an OHlcer.
Major Jacob III. Smith, captain Nine
teenth Infantry, was tried at Fort Clark,
Texas, before the same general court-mar-
tial that recently sentenced Major Payne Of
the same regiment to suspension from duty
on "poker case.n General Stanley's com
ment on that case was published in these
columns, and as he disagreed again with
the court In the Smith case, has again ven
tilated his opinions on gambling in the
army. Major Smith was tried for conduct
nnbecoming an officer and gentleman, In
having played poker with professional
gamblers, and, having lost $l35 to them, re-
tusing to pay until an official row was
raised, but, while the court found the ac-
cused guilty of the essential parts of the
specifications, it changed the charge
to conduct to the prejudice of good
order and military discipline and
thus saved him his commission, and SEN
fenced him to twelve months confinement
to the post he may be serving at, though on
duty, and forfeit half his pay for the same
time. General Stanley, the department
commander, approved the sentence, but
says; "The reviewing authority differs en-
trely with the court upon its finding to the
charge. Useless as 1t may be to comment
upon the decisions OF a general courtmar-
tinl, he thinks it necessary in this case to
say, that the rulings of the court are almost
invariably in opposition to the Government
and in favor of the accused, and present in
consistencies too numerous to be pointed out
in this review, They prepared the way to a
finding of mildness not warranted by the evil
dence and to a sentence totally inadequate TO
the deserts Of the case. Incidents occurred in
this trial which are new and Objectionable
and show lack Of principle, The applica-
tions Of the accused for witnesses then in
distant parts Of the country, upon his afll-
davits that they were necessary to the de-
fense, who, thereafter, when present at the
place Of sitting of the court during its ses-
sions, were never brought by him before II
TO give testimony; the hiding away Of cti-
zen witnesses for the prosecution, who,
when caught and compelled to come before
the court, stood mute; and the refusal of
citizen witnesses for the defense TO answer
proper questions Of the judge-advocate on

unwarrantably, and IN every possible way
to hinder the court In arriving at the facts,
give to the method of this defense an extra
ordinary character which cannot be too
strongly condemned"

THE COLORS OF AUTUMN.
beauties of the Season as Described
by Close Observer.

beauties of the Season as Described
by Close Observer.
The russet has more variety than
any other single color of our autumn.
Russct of maple is one thing, of oak
another. of elm still another Russet
of cherry is one shade, and different
from russet of apple. Russet of linden
is rarely unmixed; it is mottled, Rus
sets OF pine vary among themselves
the tamarix, the pine, the hcmlock.
Then there comes day when all the
landscape is russetclothed, but in in
finite relief of shades. There is the
brown of corn in the stack, brown of
buckwheat, brown of decaying stubble,
brown of fresh-turned autumnal
ploughing, and changing under the
passing harrow as plush changes under
a pass of the hand, till the field is regu-
larly and prettily belted. There is one
shade of brown on the forest TO the
east, another under the western sky.
There is brown in the near view
which is entirely different from the
brown in the distant.
The present autumn has this pecu-
liarity; it is the day of older trees.
Saplings are for once left fairly be.
hind in the race of beauty, by the
gnarled old fellows which were sap
lings when this republic was born, if
not before that. Now an old tree can
do one thing that young one never
can. 1t can change to that unspcalla-
bic yellow which is like nothing else
in all pigments. An aged maple will
gather up during the summer the yell
low of the morning and evening
twilights, will store itself with what is
vaguely called the golden" ray, and
then suddenly burst forth in late Octo-
bcr with all these twilights on its head.
Standing underneath the boughs on a
cloudy day, even, and with the incip-
lent chill as of November in the air,
you yet look up and have the sense of
August warmth.
Old trees are capable of maroon, and
that, too, which is very pertinacious.
Younger growths may assume this
warm color for day or two, but they
seem incapable of holding it, and soon
lapse into rust and blotch. The mixed
brown and red which we name maroon,
is wonderfully striking on a hillside in
the brilliant light of noon during early
November. AS the sun declines you
lose the proper angle for the delicate
sheen. On taking an individual oak
leaf in my hand its red brown polish
was so pronounced that | have been
unable to explain why the whole forest
did not fairly flash. Doubtless the
infinite variation Of visual angles pre-
vents; whereas grasses and grain, each
spear bending the same are to you as
they bow before the wind, will flash al
most prismatic at times. know of no
color on the American forest, except
maroon, that glistens. The green, to
be sure, flashes after rains, but that is a
different thing from the FURNISHED as
pect to which am calling attention, -

'Tis claimed by those writers in
spired by God that Adam, our father,
was naught but clod, mere clod Of
earth, and, when brcathed into life
the first thing he needed, of course,
was wife. Though handful of dust
sutlced for man, woman was built
on different plan;whilc the least Whit
of wind blows man every way a
woman is solid and solid will stay. No
matter how trihing and worthless the
man, a woman will love him as long as
she can, and when she finds out he Is
worthy no longer her pity and love will
grow stronger and stronger. Thus has
ii been, thus ever twill be, If there's
blame anywhere he will say it is she;
from Adam, our father, they learned
the mean way, and ever on woman the
blame they will lay.
When driven by want SHE in business
engages, for the very same work she
receives half the wages; should she ask
for her rights, she's crazy, that's clear,
she has gotten entirely out of her
sphere. The dude, who scarcely can
walk on his feet, and thinks he can
capture any girl he may meet, says:
See that girl Amt she mashed upon
me?" She thinks: "What Il puppy

Although woman never was made
from a clod, you can but admitshe was
made by her God--an image of angels,
an object of love, helper to man and
sanctioned above; but, to buy up the
men for all they are worth-they are
nothing you know, but mere clod of
earth-and if sold out at once at their
own estimation, oh, would it not be a
grand speculation?
Now, woman all, my fellow
creatures, back me up in this, my
speech, sirs, and all men they ought
or might, grant to us what is our right.
But whether or not, this is our boast;
whate'or they're worth, we're worth
