TnE Ozark Democrat copies from TuE
APrEAL's editorial comments on Gov.
Hills attempt at recent banquet in New
York to bclittle Cleveland by asserting
that he had killed his chances for n re-
election to tho Presidency by sending his
now historic tariff roiorm message to Con-
gross. We proved by election statistics
that this was not true, that Mr.. Cleveland
lost the election because he was sold out
by interested politicians in New York and
Indiana, those in the former State being
friends Of Gov. Hill, who was careful TO see
that lac was reelected Notwithstanding ho
stood ON the Same national pla tiorm as Mr..
Cleveland. In this The Ozark Dmocrdi
agrees With us and says that "thc man
who gets tho nomination Of the Demo
cratic party for President must have some

nipulations 10 recommend him. lie must
be statesman in the broadcast and truesl

The weather during the last fortnight has
been somewhat shoWery,-we have not had
any heavy showers, but sufficient to cool
the atmosphere considerably, and to fresh
ell the appearance of growing vegetation.
There has been a very distinct improve
ment in the look of the young canes, in
duCed by the influence of these slight
showers and although, as regards vigor
and height, they are by no means up to
the standard which was attained at the
same m last year, ct they are promis-
ing, and time is still on their side. This
comparative backward condition of the
growing canes is particularly noticeable
in thin soils, where the want of the early
rains has told with considerable effect. It
Is not only pleasant, but satisfactory, to
note the change which the late light
showers has produced in the appearance
of many fieldS,-a mantle of green being
assumed, instead of a cloak of russell aud
brown. We say this change is not only a
pleasant one to the eye, but is also salts

A great Orchid Show.

The third annual exhibition of orchids
was opened in the Eden MnS6e under the
management of MeSsrS. Siebrecht and
Wadley. 1t Is the finest ever given ia
this city. There are exhibited between
three thousand and four thousand plants,
with more than ten thousand blooms. ,
The arrangement of the show ia very
pretty. In the centre of the garden is q
long oval stand. Arranged around this
are several smaller stands. and lnanv
plants are arranged round the settees of
the room. The managers have endeavor-
ed to show the orchids as they grow in the
tropics. Palms, ferns, oxoticS and shrubs
are ON the stands, and many Of the Or
chldS are fastened to these and to the
coughs OF made-up trees. The effect is
very pretty.
Many of the orchids on exhibition have
never been seen in this country before.
The chief exhibitors are MeSSrs. Siebrecht
and Wadley, of the Rose Hill nurseries ;
James +. Pitcher, Of the United States
Nurseries, Short Hills, N. Y; w. s. Kim
ball, John Eyerman and Frederick Man.
Among the most attractive orchids in
the show is the CattIeya TrianB, owned
by Kent Nurseries. 1t is the largest
known specimen and has about twenty
A~O NAOObA A4UGSOtCS 6IA CUC
across. 1t represents a lily and a bird,
and has two white petals and two white
Sepals. The labellum or throat is a lemon
yellow color inside, with q white lip
some of these flowers are rose and purple
with crimson lips. The Run iorchid, is
an odd one. It has five &epals and no
petals this is strange for an orchid. The
throat or labellum is = rose color, chang
ing to a chocolate, with an old-gold lip.
In this is the crest, which is white, and
looks very much like a nuns head.
A very fine specimen of the Co@logyna
paudurata is exhibited for the. first time
III this country. 1t was imported from =
the East Indiesl and in appearance the
Hover looks very much like a human
skeleton. This one has fine blossoms on
a stalk. They are green and black. I6
has five sepalS. The crest is open, and
not covered as usual, exposing the head.
The lips are undulating and. frilled. '''
Another handsome one from the East
Indies is the butterfly or moth orchid. 1t.
is a vivid rose pink in colour and has two
petals and three sepals. The lip is sub
divided with two jaws, and is marked
chocolate and yellow. The crest repre-
sents a pink moth. 5.3n att mods :

ACUSTOM. HOUSE seizure attended with a
somewhat cOmical chapter in its history is
reported to us in the street. MeSSrS CONRAD
s. Co. paid duty on a shipment of matches
which when it was brought to their stores
and landed was found to be damaged in all
the packages by fresh water. 1t turned
out that they had been left exposed to the
rain on the wharf for about wO days.
The cOnSignee of the vessel having seen
reason to admit that the damage was of
the avoidable kind, and had been caused
by negligence, paid the cost of the mat
ches and then had the cases opened, the
damaged boxes thrown out, and the good
ones packed up in the original shipping
cases, with the intention of having them
re-shipped. In due course, the usual
exporters declaration was lodged at
the Customs and the drawback claimed,
but one of the Customs staff found out
tor himself that the cases were not in
the condition in which they had been
landed, and he reported accordingly.
The cOnsignee was then notified that he
had claimed drawbacks upon goods which
had been open out in the colony, thar he
rendered himself liable to a fine, and that
the goods had been seized. To this intima-
ton the cOnsignee replied that the declaration
had been made in ignorance of the terms of
the Customs law and that be hoped his
blunder Tor rather, as We take it, the blum
der of some of his aSsiStantS) would be
overlooked. Then comes in the joke. Re
ference was made to the newspaper report
of the meetings of the COmbinedCOurt at the
time of the framing of the Customs regula-
tionS, and there it was shewn that the con-
signee himself was the legislator who pro-
posed that it should be illegal to claim
drawback on packages of goods that had
been opened after their delivery i'll the
