TO PRESERVE A BoQUET.

When you receive a boquet. sprinkle it with
fresh water; then put it into vessel containing
so-.e roapsuds, which noursh the roots and keep
the flowers as good rs new. Take the boquet
out Of the I'D every morning, and lay it side
ways in fresh water; keep it there minute
or two, then take it out and sprinkle the flowers
lightly by the hand with pure water. Replace
the boquet in roapsuds, and the flowers will
bloom as fresh as when gathered. The soap.

II, VI SIMMONS

+. NJ. Simmons, our STANDARD bear
er ia the black district, spoke to a
large crowd Friday night in En-
mondson'5 hall. Every body. white
and black were highly pleased. Mr..
Simmons did himself credit and the
party he represents. He nude a
very able, logi cal, convincing speech:
and while he made no pretention TO
orltOry, vet be got off some very
beautiful flights Of genuine co
queuce. The crowd seemed to have
gotten in harmony with the speaker
in the outset, and went with him
through his speech and were highly
delighted at his patriotic effort. We
predict for Simmons a bright future.
We think he is growing man. He
deserves to be elected and we think
and hope he will be. Let every
Democrat discharge his full duty
day and night from now until next
Tuesday night. The time is short,
but long enough to see every voter
and have him registered and see
that he votes. Don't fail 10 register

your neighbor is registered and vo,

IS right to elect its candidates. To

ought not to be permitted. We can
elect Simmons and Dunn both, if
we will. So let every man do his
whole duty and all will be well

AMERICAN LADIES.

The papers and some Southern
people seem to be much exercised
because Mrs. Cleveland die not keep
her promise and visit Richmond.
We are not at all disturbed nor can
we see why any one else should be
If any one is the loser by her alb
sence it is Mrs. Cleveland ana not
any Southern lady. She had a good
excuse not to visit Richmond if she
did not, she IS not like other marie q
ladies; and if she did not come it is
no body's business but hers. SO
far as meeting Miss Davis and Mrs.
Lee. We are sure she lost as much as
they did Dy not meeting. Mrs. Lee
and Miss Davis would have come
as near being contaminated by com
ING In contact with Mrs. Cleveland
as she would have been by meeting
| the two daughters of exConfeder-
ates. They are all American ladie~
and are all equal y the eyes of the
/ civilized and Christian wo. III /; and
/ to attempt to make distinction, or
draw a comparison between NOrth>
ern and Southern ladies of equal
standing is supreme nonsense and
thu heig hit Of madness,if not wicked
ness. Mrs. Cleveland is as good as
Miss Davis and Mrs. Lee, and no
better. And the daughter Cf Jeffcr-
son Davis and the wife of Lee are
as good AS noble and as refined and
polished as the wife of Grover
/ Cleveland. We claim no more for
our Southern ladies than we grant
/ for Northern ladies. sBut that we
do claim and demand. TO suggest
! that the ladies did not visit Rich
n,Ord ccau.e they did not deoi e
TO come In contact with
/ the daughters of the dls,i"-
oulshed ex-Confederate is not an
/ insult to the North. but both an iii
suit and all outrage to the South
coming from Southern lips. Our
Southern ladies are our jewels md
! will and can shine in any Ciety IN
. the civilized and cultivated world.
