The Dancing Masters Convention, which opened

Wallace and Samuel Burrows. for membership Of the
society. The afternoon session was taken up with
the introduction q certain new dances by various
members OF the society. 1t was noticeable how the
actions OF the professors betrayed their occupation.
Even when not engaged in the business Of the meet
ing and while reclining their seats they fell into
various attitudes commonly adopted By persons who
are laid Off during dance
The three new dances introduced and unanimously
adopted by the convention were the glide mazurka

and a new original dance. the Berlin" both by
Professor Pitt Rivers The glide ma2urRa' differs
from the old dance Of that name only in respect OF
favoring the waltz preference 70 the polka step.
The general effect IS graceful but there arc conditions
of dancing In which the long sliding step would BRING
about complications peculiar and disastrous. Inc

THE PRESIDENTS LATEST EFFORT.

To the dftorOf The Trtoune.
Sir Tho mountain which has labored for three
months has been delivered at last. Mr. Cleveland
has fired of his letter Of acceptance In the form Of
grocery stump speech, and the world still
moves. Columns OF iteration OF the shallow sophisms
which characterized his message together with
awkward attempts at defence make the substance Of
this faultng Of the Presidents brain. His numerous
pretenccs and transparent sophstes were OF course
expected and It Is easy TO rad between the lines and
understand where " the Heather Chinee" comes IN
with the grossncss OF his attempts at deception But
what can be said Of the Intelligence OF pretended
statesman who addresses National constituency as
II It Is incapable Of reflection memory Hc is
mistaken In supposng that the American people are
idiots, and he for himself only scorn when he
asserts his regard and for our surviving soldiers
and sailors declares for guaranteeing TO our coorre
citizens Of all their ghts Of citizenship for
strict and scadfas adherence 10 the principles OF Civil
Service Reform and says that he and his bngadicrs
have entered upon no crusade for free trade Can
the man be stuifyng himself. or is HIS egOtism so
stupendous that he believes in ignoring facts as
patent "a lightl All his posing and pretences arc
