The turquoise is also a tasteful
stone but when it is con family worn
it has the immense disadvantage to
change color, and to this change most
women attach sad and sentimental

Preutiss served but one term I'M Con-
Cress but his voice was heard iu behalf
of the Wings in every campaign until his
death in 1870. at the age OF Il. he was
the principal speaker at the great Whig
meeting at Nashville in 1874, when his
iGol, Henry Clay, was candidate for
President.
His speech upon that occasion was
doubtless his master-p piece onth stump.
When he closed ne fell back in a swoon
n the arms Of James c. Jones, himsel a
magnificent orator who hugged him TO
