The billy goat and the billet-doux and
the pOliceman's billy are three great
American institutions. The billy goat
is just now on deck in Texas. The
Angora billy yields from three to four
pounds Of MOhair and more hair is sold
in New York for 40 cents a pound than
at less figure. You can figure out of
this clean return of about 81 80 year
with small expenses for raising hair.
What a Texan don't know about hair
raising the Apaohes can tell him. For
raising billy goat hair consult the An
CORA goat literature, you will find it Just
as We say. Texas ranchers will find
billy profitable investment, judging
from the hair raising stories that circu-
late in the numerous stock journals Of
the State.

LINcoLN's GREAT STATE PAPER.

The current number of the North
American Review contains very i'm
portant historical article, fifteen-page
fac smile OF Secretary Stewards letter
to Minister Adams, at London, in May,
1861. The letter in question was writ
ten in relation to the Queen OF England's
proclamation recognizing the Confeder-
ate States as bslligerents, and is Chiefly
valuable for the strong light 1t throws
upon the character Of Abraham Lin
coin, as 1t shows all the cancellations,
erssures and notifications of the Presi-
dents hand. These changes. rs will be
readily seen by examining the fac simile
in the Review, are all IN the interests of
harmony, yet without detraCting from
the strength of the state paper, which is
in Mr.. Stewards most vigorous and SEN
tentious style. The corrections show
guardedness Of manner habitual with
Mr.. Lincoln, and which was frequently
called into exercise by the intensity of
the language his secretaries. They also
snow uellCale SENSE vi the OOuEl6hN uue
the nations representative at the Court
OF st. James, which is in perfect accord
with the large heart of the noble man
who Was at that time the responsible
head Of the government. Not less con-
spicuOusly do they illustrate the keen
discrimination OF the Presidents mind
as to the meaning and shades of meaning
in the language employed, revealing n
nicely and accuracy in the use of words
that would have done credit to a pro-
found philOlogist. The letter as 1t stands
amended is a silent witness to the great
wisdom Of the hand and mind which at
that time guided the affairs OF this gov
eminent, and TO the exceeding careful
ness with which he guarded his express
sions, lest they should irritste instead of
allay the feeling of hostility, too ready
to find occasion of manifestation. in the
British breast. All this, however, with
out lowering by so much as line the
high sense of obligation laid upon him
to maintain the honor and majesty OF the
nation at the bar of English prejudice
and ill-concealed hostility. The letteris
a valuable contribution to history.

public why it is the street cars stop q
long time all together, on Main Street
and then one at time sneak off, leaving
passengers to guess where they are go
ing? 1t looks as though it were put

where and how to get home. Why
does the manager not have some one
ring be lsor sound gong,n they want
the public to ride with them There

Society Dinners

A green dinner is one given TO the
girl who is to come out next winter.
The table is decorated with smilax and
green leaves. all tie names are inscibed
on green ribbons, which extend from
the centre of the table, rsdiating to each
CUES, with the name OF the person to
whom it is addressed written in gold on
the ribbon.
1t is not now the fashion to give fans.
bouquets or any sort of f1yor at din
ner party, although at these green din
ners certain pretty and not expensive
green fans are presented as pleasant
souvenir for the young ante debutante
to keep. At one opulent dinner table
all the glass was OF that pale green tint
which looks 50 cool. and china with a
green edge was used. There were bou-
Quets of green leaves of different tnts,
and a few buds still in their green
sheath. All the varieties of green veg
etables, as asparagus, spinach and let
tuce, were freely experimental upon,
and salmon with green sauce was, of
course, in order.
u
whole table was coUleur de rose; glass,
china and table cloth were all of rose
ate complexion: the pink lamp shades
and pink roses, the ribbons and the
PINK damask cloth, made for once a
pretty novelty. Pink fans. of course,
accompanied this pink dinner. This
was given to debutante as the first
dinner of her coming out winter. In
this one can see the influence OF Wag-
ner, who uses the diapason of color so
freely in his OPERAS quslity mucn
spoken of by MIR. Haweis. Thus every
one remembers the wilderness ofIohen-
grin, the swan being the KEYNOTE. and
the redness of Mephistopht. d the
yellow tones in the Meistersing, and
the appropriateness of his stage setting,
as TO color, was always noticed at Bair
enth.
+ A blue dinner is far more difficult to
manage. 1t is an unbecoming color for
lamp shades, making everyone look
chastity. 1t is, therefore. necessary to
contine ones self to blue ribbons, and
almost the only blue flower we have the
forget-me not, is not very ornamental.
These dinners are given to literary
ladies, and have this sole excuse for be-
ing, that they bring out the old blue"
china, which is always worth seeing.
Blue menus and blue chairs, blue porti-
e es and blue fans and favors, are some
times added. but blue tablecloth is
