rs M1RRT1GE A FAILURE?

formvIllc TO Davictta b. Hill, OF AntirciormhWs
Intelligent people felt. soon as the news came
of the marriage, that however il might be wlth
nuptIal contracts in general this one was Douno
to prove p fragrant failure. It was known ID
politico-social circles that close friends or the
groom, such as George William Curtis, George
Jones and Larry GodlCn, of the Second Ward.
had done their best to prevent the match Ihey
had said TO the groom Grover, take our word
for it, you never can be happy with D~Vietta
The fact that she is from AntirefOFmbHrT ana
thoroughly devoted TO the Advancement of its IN
trrests. while you are continually boasting that
YOU are the favcrite son of Rcformvillc ought to
convince You that such n union can only END IN
disaster But Grover scorned their advice
Suppose Davietta is devoted TO the interests OF
Antireformburg,' he replied what care /, so

do dctc upon her DOVER
The bride. IL was understood, had talked in an
equally cold-bloodcd manner. wonder II
ANYBODY imagines,7 she had whispered TO her
confidential friends, because I'm uniting my
fortunes with Growers, that therefore he has my

the heavy responsibility of Growers name. That's
all. A more lovecss match was never made
We'll. IL is only few weeks since the marriage
at Buffalo. and already it has become scandal
Witness the following personal notices:
To Whom II May Concern: | hereby wcrn all per

Certainly nothing else is necessary to prove
that the Cleveland-IIill match was not made in
Heaven But evidently the worst is yet to come
How can il be otherwise, when Dayietta was lately
seen in a hardware store shopping for razors, and
was heard to excaim, while Trying the edge OF
several which she subsequently purchased, that
she would have support or almony from the
groom or else have his gore. 1t IS only fair TO
the bride TO say that since the marriage she has
applied number OF endeaFing term, 10 the groom
no one of which he has reciprOcated. Ihls
while not indeed justifying her in distributing
razors among her admirers and cordially inviting
them TO JOIN her in hacking the lite out of Grover
IS a mitigating circumstance. 1t is clear that the
groom's aim is to profit BIZ the brides dover
without rendering her any equivalent. IL IS
equally clear that TIE bTlde, If she cannot have
support will have revenge. Was there ever such
a marriage in the history of the Democratic party

In his speech to the committee which informed
him of his nomination. Mr. Cleveland SAID:
/" The political party to witch l owe allegiance
both bonors and commands me. 1t places in my
hand the proud standard and bids me bear it nigh
at the front" Now, does Mr.. Cleveland really

so long as he refuses to write certain letter
which a good many members of his party are
postive that he ought to write without further
delay? We allude to the letter giving a handsome
Endorsement to the candidacy of David H. Ill.,
and declaring that if he were a citizen of New
York he would vote for him without the slightest
,nisgvngs as TO his fitness and with considerable
personal satisfaction Let him not hesitate to
elevate the proud standard and bear it high at
the front
The Paris Figaro" gets in a neat bacIhanded
thrust at Enrlands Only General in a comment
on his recent magazine articles. The Hero of Tel

what reputation he has in the future no less, per-
baps. to his pen than to his sword.
The report comes from Washington that IT Is
admitted even by Democrats that the next House
of REPRESENTATIVES will be Republican, and that
il is useless to make any effort to prevent it,
Truly, the Democratic party is having hard time
this year But it's no wonder that the people
