That Pretty EvangeIine,

We published recently under the head of
"a Pretty Surprise" notice of new and
very charming edition of Longfellow's most
celebrated poem, Evangeline.' Upon ex-
animation, the book proves so delightful In
every way that we believe it will be u faver
to our readers to refer to it again. 1t is
handsomely illustrated, maiuly by Birket
Foster, one of the most famous English
artists, and bound in exquisite taste in a
combination of white aud blue cloth, with
gilt edges and ornaments, and is sold only
by the publisher direct tnot by book sellersl,
ture by the HUNDRED thousand-l9 cents a
copy, plus cents postage, if by mail. His
object is to place an example Of his book
making in the hands of a vast number of
readers. He could certainly choose no more
excellent volume to please alr people of good
taste. His catalogue OF books covering every
department of literature, a veritable feast Of
good things for book-loyers, aud at wonder

Address to the DemooF oFaoy.

The Democratic National Committee
has issued the following address:
To the people of the United States
The Democratic National Committee
congratnlates the country on the result
of the recent State elections in Maine,
Vermont and Arkansas.
In Arkansas the;combined opposition,
after SO many extravagant claims, fell
short by over $4,000 of the vote of the
Democracy alone. This has brought
uismay to the com binations in the South
and their manipulators in the North.
In Maine and Vermont the contest
was conducted distinctly on National
issues. The Republican managers ap-
pealed for votes in these States on the
ground that "the size of the plurality
the other States,' and that the poll
would be practically our vote for Pres
ident." Similar appeals summoned to
their aid all the potent resources OF
their national organization, with its ex-
haustleas treasury and its splendid
equipment of orators of national fame.
With every fayoring force at their
command except public opinion, with
no organization opposed, save those
made up within the States by a minority
party which Las been out of power for
a generation, and which was unaided
from without, the campaign of our ada
veraaries for triumphant test vote in
these States, SO carefully planned and
so thoroughly and forcefully executed,
has ended in a conspicuous disaster.
Our friends every ywhere are entitled
to take fresh courage from these re-
suits. They mean that the strong ten
dency of public sentiment is with the
Democratic party, and that the people
of the country are prepared to enforce
rather than reserve the verdict which
they rendered in 1890.

Exposition
The era Of solomon, the Israelitish king, has
ever been fraught with an interest that will
last through all ages. There was so much that
was grand, so much that was sumptnous, so
much that was prophetic, so much that was
sacred, so much that was divine, attending and
consequent to his reign, that history furnishes
no parallel. Art has now been called into re-
QUESTION as adyentitious aid to biblical lore,
and the glamour and glores of the past are
reproduced in the present. The eminent art
tist, Mr.. John Rettig, has devoted year or
more to personal research in Palestine, Jerusa-
lem and the Holy Land, and has studiously
mastered the history and traditions of the
Bible, and returning, has produced a grand
spectacular masterpiece. depicting the great
temple, the walls and city of Jerusalem, the
visit of the Queen Of sheba, the
Judgment of Solomon, and other notable
scenes, incidents and. events during the regal
administration of the great Hebrew sage, pa
triarch and king. In connection with the big
gest and best circus on the road, the largest
and best menagerie, and the vast royal Roman
hippodrome, the management of John Robin
sons Great Worlds Exposition now present
this transcendently beautiful aud impressive
spectacle for the qualification of their patrons.
The consolidated exhibitions will be given
at Opelpusas on Tuesday, Oct. 25th.
