The lawn tennis craze has seized on the
young people of some Ofthe Northern and
Eastern cities in earnest, and the prospects
are that the game will soon become more
popular thar il ever has been. The spe-
c'fic il fiuence OF different emrloyments,
amusements and games on the human
mind and destiny has long been acknowl-
edged. 1t has been known that roller
skating is the greatest known promoter
OF Opponents. Now it is getting TO be
recognized that lawn tennis is extremely
conducive to matrimony. The req
sons for this fact have not vet
been fully given, but it IS believed that it
is in the main due to the graceful poses
the players unconsciously or consciously
assume. the healthy and chaste action
that is induced, and the development of
amiab1lity in good proportion of the
players in contrast with the exhibition of
temper in others. There may be other
more obscure and more scientific reasons
that may become known after the subject
shall have been more fully investi-
gated, but 1t is probably sufficient at
present to prove the matrimonial ten
deeper into the subject.
Lawn tennis is one of the most attract
i've and engaging" outdoor games that
young people OF both sexes are wont to
indulge in. Croquet seem TO have lost it's
charms for grown up young ladies and
men-in fact, 1t was always regarded as a
very tame game, and the secret of its one
time popularity was the macmillan faciIi-
ties it offered for flirting, though not that
dangerous and reprehensible kind of 1irt-
ing that Is characterized c of roller skating,
1t is probable that lawn tennis will soon
become more popular than ever in every
part OF the country. No well regulated
family that possesses jewels in the shape
OF marriageable daughters can in the tu
ture afford to be without tennis court,
Young men who are invited to Join in
tennis games may take due notice OF all
the above facts and govern themselves &C.
cOrdingly.

An American Aristocrat.

In these days of bogus aristocracy and
snobocracy it is gratifying to
have genuine American aristo-
crat brought prom nently before
the county. Such an one is Mr..
Abram ). Hewitt, Democratic nominee
for Mayor of New York, whose pedigree
is as honorable as it is unpretentious, and
whose lite is such as to do credit TO his
ancestry.
Mr.. Hewitt does not boast of a descent
from any of the disreputable nobility of
Europe or from the lackeys and retainers
OF crowned heads. He does not trace his
ancestral tree back until its roots are lost
in the dark events OF the dark ages. and
his tOrefathers so far as known were
neither princely robbers nor pirates. His
father was mechanic and mis- mother a
farmers daughter, and they both came
from good, honest stock, though they we're
poor, aud earned their daily bread by
honest labor.
Mr.. Hewitt shows himself to be a true
nobleman in that he is not ashamed Of his
ancestry. He made a speech in New
York the other evening in which he IN a
becoming manner boosted of his blood,
and OF the fact that his parents drought
10 their children to reverence God, and 10
give an equivalent to society for every
hour OF their lives"
Mr.. hewitt has said and done many
things to commend him TO his country
men, but he has never given expression
to nObler utterances than those alluded
to. he bias no need to be ashamed TO
stand along with jackson and Clay and
Webster, and scores OF other great
Americans whose humble but honor
able ancestry shed lustre on
their lives, and enabled them to
stand as genuine representative
men IN 1ani of liberty, where accidents
of birth and position are of little moment,
except TO those who do not appreciate the
strength of the great principle that I'm.
deriies our tree Institutions. Such a man
as Mr.. Hewitt may well be honored by
Jhe people of the American metropolis and
by every right minded citizen of the
Union.

Love Hiding,

From Frank Lesyte's p ,1'iEldr lfoatAIv.
Love was playing hide and seek,
And we deemed that he was gone.
Tears " ere on my withered cheek
For the setting Of our sun:
Dark It was around, above,
But he came again, my love.
Chill and 1rear in warm November,
We recall the happy spring,
While. bewildered. we remember
When the wouds began TO sing,
All alive with leaf and wing,
Leafl,ss lay the silent grove:
But he came again, Iny love!
And our melancholy frost
Woke TO radiance in HE rays,
Who wore the COX of one we lost,
In the iaraway dim days;
No prayer, we sighed. the dead may move.
Yet he came again, my love!
Love went TO sleep, but not forever
And we deemed that Q was dead;
Nay, shall augHt aYail to sever
Hearts who once indeed were wedt
Garlancs for his grave we wove,
But he came again. my love!

said an army officer to-day. II mean Second
Lieut.. Powhatan IL. Clarke of the TEN
cavalry, who has twice been. publicly complt-
mented by Gen. Miles recently for gallant
service, and he deserves credit rot only for
his bravery, but for the manly way In which
he has performed an unpleasant duty. He is
son OF Powhatan Clarke of Baltimore
formerly from Virginia. You can imagine
how distasteful it is for a young Virginian to
be compe led to serve with coiored regiment
In nearly every instance such officers do
everything In their power to get transferred
to some other regiment, and in falling they
never fal to express their dissatisfaction.
Young Clarke, who was graduated from
West Point only two years ago, never made a
murmur, and has repeatedly shown the stun
he is made of. 1t is astonishing continued
the officer. "how many youngsters are coming
into the army possessed with the same pluck
and yecklessness. They seem to have no fear
OF danger. and are ready TO do their duty, no
matter what the consequences may be. 1t is
such officers that furnish an example to their
men, and of whom any country would be
proud. Young Clarke's recent exploits Guild
have been rewarded with a Victoria cross il
performed in the British army. Give the
youngsters credit for their deeds, say l."

Editor Cutting, of FL Paso. IS the sort of
a person that cannot be repressed. The
little taste of notorIety that he obtained
by being locked in Mexican prison tor
libeling a Mexican citizen appears to
have created in him a desire to claim a
much larger share of public attention
than be secured in that little episode in
his career. He now proposes to raise an
army of 10000 men and make himself
master OF three Mexican States. Perhaps
be thinks that ii he gets possession of so
much Mexican territory the Mexican
government will pay him mis- little bill of
$4,000 fer damages suffered while an
inmate of the Mexican prison.
There is not much probability that Cut
ting will succeed in getting 10000, or any
other number, OF men to follow him to
Mexico, and il is exceedingly doubtful if
Cutting himself wants to 90 there again.
Toe summary way the Mexlcans have of
dealing with men like him is not pleasing
to him.
The present Isn't good time to GO to
Mexico. The country appears to be on
the verge of revolution, and the ne wspa.
