An UGLYCIrH.


'sicSan Francisco is probably the ugliest
'uity ihthe Union, despite her beautiful
surroundings, her ideal situation, her
ravishing water, view. Nature has
supplied her with charms galore, but
on her face the deforming hand OF man
has left heavy, hideous marks. Her
architecture is nightmare of gray and
wooden horrors her houses lack both
paint and dignity, and are hunddled
together, separated by the omnipresent
ultra7ugly, allsprevading fence. A tall,
wooden fence has its obvious use in
rural districts, where it protects the
grounds and gardens of the residents
from the unwelcome incursions Of rov-
ing cattle, but it is many a year since
kline and swine have been permitted
to gambol about the San Francisco
streets, and there is neither sense nor
beauty in the large, wooden structures
which surround the lawns and partere
res of every second house in San Frans
cisco. Eastern cities have long since
abandoned fences, except in some
cases, where low, lacelike, iron rails
Ing is substituted, and one can ride
miles through the beautiful boulevards
of Chicago, Cincinnati, Detroit or Bost-
on without seeing fence of any des-
cription. There your grounds are
separated from your neighbors' only
by a low, stone coping, and the lovely
expanse of green and flowers stretches
away indefinitely, unmarried by the
painted excrescences which render our
streets as lugubrious as the shadow of
convent walls, which neither adorn
nor defend, but successfully conceal
the really beautiful lawns which lie
behind their aged backs.-San Fran.

to do was to nominate just such man as
the Democrats did not nominate.
The convention then proceeded to the

standing trade dollar should be re-
deemed at its face value. II

such a period In the history Of the city,
that at present all the tracks are

confusion. Receipts by rail average
about 6000 bales daily, and 1000 to 1000
bales from Houston by barges Every
dock is crowded with steamers loading
the staple for Europe.
The Missouri Pacific road is now tax
