consisting of light over coats, dark
trousers, high white hats
and gold and purple badges.
There was not finer looking body of
men in the procession, and as they
turned into Fifteenth street, marching
twelve in front, the great crowd
ckeered Justify and the ladies clapped
their hands and waived their hand
kerchiefs. The Jefferson club, of
Cincinnati, followed and made the
most creditable display, and were also
greeted with applause and ether dem
onstratisns of approval. A colored
man, clad in sky blue, swallow-tall
coat and bright red pantaloons and
wearing on his breast an enormous
silver plate bearing the name of the
organic alton, preceded the Jackson

and red. The Eleventh Ward Ran.

sente an excellent appearance with
three hundred neatly attired men in
line. The Topeka Flambeau Clab

club of Maine, splendid banner of
black and gold foa,ed over 500 men

represented by horses, one for each
vote, arranged in states by color. They

TAMMANY BOOSTERS.
The live ROSTERS which We're carried
by the Tammany club and county
democracy Of New York We're made
conspicuous as they passed the stand
and caused much amusement. Taken
all in all as combined, military and
civic display, the procession was IN
coubtedly the largest and finest ever
seen in Washington. At the conclu-
sion of the review the president aud
party proceeded to the dining room of
the White House where they partook
of lunch ordared for them by ex-
President Arthur.
From 10 to 20 the Southern girl is a
joy TO the behoider, says lady cor
respondent. A creamy complexion.
with sometimes, not Otter, a faint
flush of pink underneath, soft eyes
with a world of dreams in them, a
rounded figure, tiny hands and feet,
and kittekish ways, make it no marvel
that the youth masculine of New
Orleans is mostly married at 90 or %
A girl of 90 who has rot received
half-a dozen offers, at least, is socially
fail ire. Matrimony is the grand,
authorized aim, as publicly recognized
as the louisiana Lottery. Girls are
educated to marry and to detest the
circumstances that compel them to
earn their living III any less wcmsnly
way Il married." said little lady
10 me the other day, discussing the
somewhat unfortunate position of
family affairs. The inference was
plain. But there are girls, brave
girls, whose pretty faces may be seen
behind the counters OF almost every
large store in New Orleans, whc,
while hating conformity with SLOPPY
conditions, have put their delicate
shoulders to the wheel of family
adversely, and swectly contributed
their mites to the general income. OF
the professional ambition that fires
their Northern sisters they know
nothing. They are innately aud Ell
tirely domestic, lovable and loving,
asking only to be shielded from the
facts of life, and permission to I'M
limitedly pirouette. A young lady
may receive alone, and generally
does; may drive with 4 gentleman,
may not accept his escort to the
theater, concert or hall without a
chaperon; Sunday evening is devoted
to reception all over the city; chmch
in the morning is the usual limit to
devotion; firecrackers and brass bands
enliven the day, and anything can be
purchases, from carpets to caramels.
The girls sit in their pretty summer
dresses upon the wide steps of the pill
Jared veranda, their various admirers
posing with admirable effect III their
immediate vicinity. 1t is al very
picturesque, very idyllic. There is
much rhythmic laughter and distract q
ing ccqaetry, many graceful compli
ments and imperial edicts. To make
hay while the sun SHINES, is rule Of
conduct no less practical than valua-
BILE TO these charming demoiselles, for
their beauty is the beauty Of the
queenly magnolia touch of frost,
brnise Of fortune, and it is gone,
withered, faded, yellowed, q sugges-
ton of the past
