 The Race To-Day.
 COTTAGE CrTY, Mass, Aug. 12.-At meeting of the captains of the New York Yacht club to-day it was decided not to sail to Marblehead this year. The citizens of Newport have offered to present the club with cups to be raced for, the date and terms of the race to be settled by the regatta com mittee. Tomorrow the Martha's Vineyard race will be sailed. starting at 10 o'clock oil the Sea View House. Tuesday run will be made to New Bedford. To avoid the dam gers and head tides of the shoals the course will be made through the Sound to the south west of the Sow and Pigs ightship. We'd nesday the fleet will run from New Bedford to Newport, and Thursday the race for the Vanderbilt and Fearing cups will be sailed over the same courses as the Goelet cup races. The cups will be very costly. The course to be sailed tomorrow for the Mar tha's Vineyard cups, presented by the Mar thA's Vineyard club, will be from an imagi- nary line drawn from the horizontal striped buoy off Oak Bluffs wharf to the flagship an- chored about quarter of 8 mile northeast from it, thence around the bell buoy half mile south of the Mosque light, leaving 1t on the port hand, thence around the buoy No. 25 of Gay Read, leaving 1t on the port hand ana returning over the same course 70 the starting line. The length of the course is 36 miles. In case of postponemsnt the race will be sailed on the first favorable day.
 VINEYARD HAVEN, Conn.,, Aug. 12.-The signal to dress ship was given at 9:30 to-day. The yachts presented fine appearance dressed in bunting. Tonight all the yachts are illuminated. In the latter part of the af ternoon the wind freshened from the east and there is every promise of wind enough for the race tomorrow.
 COTTAGE CTY, Mass, August 12.-The Volunteer will not race tomorrow, though she may follow the boats over the course. General Paine had made all his arrangements to go around Marblehead. The sudden change in the plans of the New York club will interfere with this and it is doubtful if he can continue with the cruise.

As this leap-yesr we reproduce the
following, in order to post the girls as
to what kind of goodnight courtesies
the BOYS most appreciate: "Outside oil
those kisses bestowed by affeotionate
relatives, there can be but three recog-
ni2ed classes of the genus kiss-as
viewed from Il male standpoint. The
first comes upon your lips az if they
were touched by Il smooth planed, cool
and insensate board, without life or
Observation-Disclosures of any agree
able sensation whatever, and not
being garnered with the hearts
mcmentOcs of golden, happy hours.
The second is a gentle, volvety kiss,
very sweet and pleasant, but vexatiously
unsatisfying to All ardent nature, and
but little more pronounced than a fas-
cinating cousin would likely bestOw.
The third is such rs coral, tempting,
passionate lips bestow, tor about ten
seconds upon your lips-"a lingering
sweetness long drawn out'-that not
only steals your breath, but seems to
be drawing your very soul from out
OF your body. A fellow may forget
his mother-and about the time he IL
harvesting such II kiss he is sure to
forget her but the recollection of that
undwarfed, honest kiss will abide with
him n source of Joy, and be common
surate with life itself"

its force upon the tissues of the fingers

uncorded and rewound about the

times, and finally ii was found upoi

BOSSES AND THE MEN.
From the N. Y. Herald.

lt''hh u ~ ] = lltIdlh'l
II you don't raise the tariff we will
cut down wages-that is what the
highly protested employers begin to
threaten The New Jersey Umionist. Il
sensible aud ably conducted labor
paper, discusses this threat of the pro-
tected employers in an article entitled
"All Cry and No Wovi.r 1t says:-
~"llayes, when he was satisfied on
the night OF election that he was de-
feated by TIldeu, in 1876, SAID he did
no care for himself SO much rs he did
for the poor African. Much in the
same disinterested way President
Search, of the Philadelphia Textile
Association, is troubled over the poor
workingman. The wooden manuiac-
turers, he says, are losing money (not-
withstanding all the protection they
have had), but they do not care so
much about that rs they do about their
employees, In fact, they have come to
the conclusion that congress must do
something Tor them Or wages must go
down. Duties on wOolens must be
raised. 1t would cut the very gizzard
out OF The average manufacturer to cut
down wages, but that was the only
thing that could be done unless on
gress came to the rescue. Congress
must put some money where the man
ufacturers can get it and pay it over TO
the workmen. Under existing affairs
il is 'all cry and no wool for the
wooden wage workers. And ii would
be Just the same if the tariff was
double the present rate. The worker
gets Just the same as if there was no
protection at all. In other words, the
manufacturer gets the meat of the egg
of protection, and the worker is led,
housed and clothed upon the very
nutritious she'll"
The journal of United Labor makes
a pertinent, or what probably the pro-
tected bosses would call an imperti-
nent, suggestion
"We do not mean to cast q doubt on
the disinterested devotion of manufac-
turers to their employees, especially OF
this class. We simply suggest that
congress devise some way OF conveying
the money direct to the workmen
themselves. Ii would be more direct,
and q W troubling the bosses. The
wOrkmen have had some little eXper-
fence of getting help through the
method suggested by Mr.. Search, and
have not, in all cases, found it thorough
ly reliable. Doubtless this was due to
the long and devious route the money
had t travel. We must believe so.
So much has been done by manufac-
turers for workingmen the wonder is
that labor, on its part, has not long
since owned the manufacturers"
That is sound and sensible talk. The
wool and wooden bosses have held a
convention and demanded of congress
4 higher tariff. How would it do fol
their %workingmen to speak out tor free
wool? Congress is very ready nova
days 10 do what the workingmen want
done. Free raw materials will increase
employment and wages both; why moi
demand that?

A B LITTLE BAND.
From the st. Louis Republican.

The visit of 1T. Rev. Chas. Todd
Ouintard, bishop OF the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of Tennessee, TO the
CITY is a reminder Of tho great work he
has done-that he is still doing for
education in the south. He is virtually
the founder and father of the Univer-
sity of the South at Sewanee; tor,
though the idea was conceived by his
friend, Bishop Otey, before the war be-
tween the states and the work OF build
ing begun, nothing but the site and the
foundation remained in 1860. when
DIR. Ouintard returned from his service
as chaplain, surgeon and nurse in the
confederate army. He began the work
of creating the university at once by
collecting q few earnest friends and
planting o cross on the summit OF the
mountain where the university now
stands. From that day, in February,
1866, until now, he has been indeta-
tIgable in his work for the cause OF
higher education, and through his
tireIess energy, exertIng itself both in
America and Europe, the university
has grown in strength and usefulness
until it ranks among the leading
educational institutions of the country
The "New South" is inclined to be
boastful Of what it has lone u what d
will do, but it will do well if it equals
the indomitable spirit, the simple
seIf.deyotion of the little band OF war

assembled around the cross that "inte
