A Boston Discovery.

From the SomervtlLe Journal
The snow was sliding off the roofs,
The streets were full of slush:
On every side the eye met scenes
To make the modest blush.
For Boston girls. and women. too,
At every muddy street
They had to cross raised dainty skirts
Disclosing boots petite.
With sometimes possibly an inch
Or two-or more-of hose,
And frills and laces-eXtra fine,
AS you may well suppose.
And every man made up his mind,
That day OF slush and snow,
That he who called the Boston girls
blue stockings" didn't know.

A Malapropos Message.
Ern,n ths Nam York Post lind \

1t would be difficult to imagine anything more
malspropos than message of advice sent TO an
expiring congress-, weeks after a presidential
election, by a President who in that election
sought another term and was rejected by an
overwhelming majority. The theory of recon-
mendations to congress by the executive is based
upon the fact that he was chosen to discharge
this among other duties for four years. But
when he has gone on year after year making his
recommendations, and then has submitted to
the people the question whether they approve
these policies to find that they condemn him
and his policies in the most emphatic manner,
il is the very hight OF absurdtty that our system
Of congressional meetings and executive inau.
gurations should leave this rejected candidate
to address another message TO an old congress

The New York Evening Post says that
the Richmond Terminal officials have about
completed the draft of their bill of com
plant against those who unloaded the a.
900 shares Of Georgia Central stock on the
Richmond Terminal company. and will file
it in day or two. Il looks, therefore, very
much as il the question whether or not the
sale of that stock to the Terminal company
is a binding one will soon be tested. Some
Of those who protited by the transaction
have been treating very lightly the an
nouncement of the Richmond Terminal
officials that they would bring suit
for the recovery of the money paid for the
stock. They have not believed that
serious effort would be made to annul
the sale and recover the money, and it may
be that they do not believe that anything
will be done in the matter beyond the film e
of the papers in the case.
The chief ground upon which the suit was
broughti is that some of those who sold the
stock TO the Richmond Terminal we're
directors of the Terminal, aud, hence they
simply bought the stock from themselves
for the Terminal at a price much beyond
its real value.
II the case is tried there will be some
interesting developments, even though the
Terminal officials should not succeed in
accomplishing the object they have in view
