at. INUiS vs., Cincinnati.

Evidences are not wanting that the s0bel
second thought is making Roadway in the
Farmers Alliance of the West. There new.
er was much danger of the farmers of Vir
ginia and the South being lured from
their allegiance to the Democrats party by
the third party movement. But there wa'
real danger in the Weat, as was shown By
the Cincinnati Convention. There the third
party was organized, in reality not By the
Farmers Alliance, but by the dscontented
and ambitious from every quarter. Yet the
effort was made to represent this as the &C.
ton of the Farmers' Alliance, in fact to
capture that non-partissn organic alton,
divert il from its real object and turn it
over to the third party schemers- Tho ST..
Louis Convention, which met on the 18Th,
composed Of leading Alliance men was a
timely protest agains5 this folly. Thinking
men all over the country will applaud the
courage, consistency and wisdom With
which the speakers in the St. Louis Con
vsution opposed the mischievOus positions
80 wormly endorsed at Cincinnati. The
sub-treasury and the land loan schemes re-
ceived no quarter at St. Louis Their evil
tendencies were plainly exposed, and the
farmers of the country warned of the ruin
they would bring on the very class they are
intended to relieve. All honor to Missouri
for taking the lead in this reactionary move
ment against the mast pernicious doctrines
eversought to be propagated in this country.
1t cannot bs doubted that the outspoken
condemnation will attract others and give
them courage to align themselves with the
champions of justice and fair play and
against the wild schemes of self seeking
agitators. We have ali along felt the utmost
confidence in the good sense and conversat-
ism of the farmers as class. They are las t
people in the world to be carried away with
wild and impracticable schemes. The love
Of good order, justice and liberty will lingsr
long in the rural districts and amongst the
agricultural population whan they have de-
serted the populous cities. If there was
ever any danger that the solidity of the
Democracy in the South would be broken
by the perty launched into existence in
Cincinnati, that danger is over. There may
have been little wsvering for while like
the oscillations of the needle, but like the
needle Southern sentiment will soon point
straight to the pole star. Henceforth we
shall expect the donger of third partyism
to grow beautifully less day by day till it
shall at last totally disappear from the po
litical horizon. Again, we say all honor to
Missouri, for taking the lead in SO laudable
an undertaking. -Lynchbarg Advaace.

When Columbus was made prisoner in
San Domingo the Governor who arrested
him feared there might be an attempt at
rescue. So he trained a big gun on the en-
trance of the citadel, or castle, in which
Columbus was confined. That cannon has
lain in the same place ever since until now,
when Mr.. Ober, Worlds Fair representa-
tive, recovered it, and with the permission
of the Governor of San Domingo, brought
it to the United States. Il has been ship
ped to Chief of Construction Burnham in
order that he may use it in some way in
aornamenting the Exposition grounds.

In An English Redronnn

Bedrooms are not usually nearly so
comfortably furnished in England as are
ours, says the Ladies' Home JO1tynuI 1t
is quite unusual to have a fire in ones
bedroom, and the rocking-chair, that
comfortable solace Of every American
woman's life, is conspicuous by its alb
sence. 1t is not necessary either to have
gas in the bedrooms. There is an idea
that it is unwholesome, and candles are
still almost universally used, except on
the parlor and dining-room floors. I
have sometimes thought that the poor
lighting of the bed and dressing-rooms of
the English homes had much to do in
contributing to the dowdy and unstylish
dressing of the women, the majority of
whom always have their skirts a little
bit crooked, or the petticoat showing un-
evenly on one side or the other. In fur
nishing q bedroom the dressing table
used instead of our bureaus-iS always
put against a window so as to catch all
the light possible. This looks odd both
in the room and from the outside of the
house. You see the unpainted backs of
looking glasses at the upper windows of
the handsomest houses, and even in Marl-
borough House-the palace Of the Prince
of Wales.
