Mr.. Blaine's friends in Maine that he

in the new Administrations it has become
evident Withina day or two that they
are showing signs of nervousness.
There is no specific information that
Gen. Harrison has communicated with
Mr.. Blaine in the matter. and this
raises apprehensions that the latter
will be passed over. Others, however,
see nothing threatening in Gen. Harri-
sons silence, although they admit it is
very provoking. In reply to question
enc of Mr.. Blaine's close friends said
Yesterday that that gentleman expected
the appointment and would not refuse
it if made. Mr.. Blaine continues to re-
ceive many letters from prominent Re-
publicans favoring his appointment. 1t
is believed here that the same men are

J. CARY,
j. CAREY, <=
The Irish Informer.

Some unknown person comes and
writes this inscription when time or the
weather obliterates the words, at least so
Mr.. Philpotts, the chief of the jail, in
formed me when pointing out the grave,
which he kindly undertook to do. The
grave was surrounded, and indeed half
covered, with pieces of rock and tlnty
stone; some bands of futed iron, such
as are used in South Africa for roofing
temporary houses, had been placed in
position so as to form the semblance of
cross. This cross, my informant add
ed, is frequently taken away, but the
mysterious hands who rewrite the cpl
taph also replace the rude emblem of
salvation as often as it is disturbed.
A curious ending, that death of the
arch-plotter and informer, James Carey,
sailing along in the ''Melrose Castle, the
splendid sunshine of South Africa prob
ably elevating his spirits, with the goal
almost reached, and hoped-for security
in his grasp. But even in that hour of
fancied safety the avengeris at his elbow,
and an imaginary dispute concludes
with the production of revolver, and a
brace of bullets send Carey to discover
the great secret of death and hereafter,
with as short a shrift, as brief a warning,
as he gave his victims on that historic
afternoon in the Dublin park. No priest
could be obtained to say prayer for the
dead over his body, but DIR. Enson,
Port Elizabeth surgeon, to the credit of
his Christian feelings be it said, offered
up suppIication as the body was lowered
into the grave-the grave which none but
prisoners and malefactors would be in
duced to make. The man who shot Carey
may have been political fanatic to throw
away his own life in the way he did, but
few persons, no matter what views they
may hold, but will cordially agree that
little sympathy can be given to the
wretch who lured his comrades to COM
NIT the crimes which imperiled their
existences, and then, to save his own
worthless life, handed them over to the
hangman's rope.

A Change in the Buttons.

There is nothing more noticeable to
me than the wonderful change in the
buttons that women wear that has
taken place in two years, says news
paper writer. Perhaps l notice 1T more
on account of being in the business,
but it is so radical that any one would
perceive it if he had his attention called
to it. Formerly the buttons were fancy
and large; now they are small, plain
and cheap. When merchants can sell
manufactured buttons for three cents a
dozen it reduces the profits of the manu-
facturer. Style has decided that but
tons shall be small and plain. In con
sequence, it is very seldom that wo-
man pays more than 20 cents q dozen
for the buttons she uses on her dress,
and the majority use and 10 cent but
tons.
But this style will not last long; it
will get around to the old price where it
was profitable to manufacture buttons.
Two years ago the style was to wear
novelties, and the buttons used on
dresses never cost less than so cents
dozen. The size of the button began
to increase, and it was not uncommon
to see buttons two inches square on
cloaks. Many ladies paid as high as
81 apiece for buttons. They were made
in fancy shapes, and there are few
ladies who have not pretty collections in
their scrap bags. They will be useful
some day, for the fashion in buttons is
always changing. Our trade fuctuates
accordingly. With improved machin-
cry it is now easy to make cheap,
plain button. Bone is the principal
material for these buttons, and vege-
table ivory is also used, as well as COM
position.

A EUROPEAN keeper in a jail at La
hore, India, heard knocks at his door at
late hour at night, and thinking there
were thieves about went out by round
about way to catch them. Seeing moth
ing, he returned and found a large ba-
boon seated at his round table, warming
himself by the lamp light. The animal
attacked him, and desperate encounter
resulted in the death of the baboon and
the dangerous wounding of the warder.
A YOUNG woman on her way home

IT may surprise some people to learn
that Capt. Kidd was never legally
charged with piracy, and that after
being held in prison for over two years
he was tried and convicted of killing
mutiuous sailor. If he ever committed
one single act of piracy the law was not
able to bring forward proof of it. We
are glad to make this correction in favor
of Kidd, though it comes little late.
