Amendment. which was adopted after the Civil
War had declared the inviolabr unity OF tn"
country. Now il appears that the supreme Court
has passed upon the Question, Justice Field
holding, in an opinion written by him, that the
plural form should lie employed. The suprcm-
acy of our highest court is beyond dispute bur
we are inclined to doubt whether its view on
th. subject will find general acceptance. As u

With Her Keel Up.

New YORK, July 9.--Vessels that
capsze at sea do not usually survive
that feat, but the cutter Queen Nab
which to-day reached port in tow OF
the tug Triton, managed to achieve
that triumph during her voyage from
Plymouth, England, to Bermuda An
outline of the eventful trip and the
cutters disastrous encounter with an
Atlantic cyclone was told when the
crippled boat put into Bermuda for re-
pairs. The details were learned to-day
from the hardy tars who navigated hel
across the Atlantic,

spins around in search of fresh partners.
There is what is called halling dance,
in which the NorwegianS turn somer-
saults and at times sink SO 10y that thelr
knees get nearer the ground than their
heels. A leap in the air has to be made
and some part of the wall to be touched,
with the toe. Boon enjoys these dances
immensely.
Hon. Alexander B. Montgomery, of
Kentucky, gives good idea of Christ
mas celebrations in his state. in some
of the congressional districts the day is
ushered in with horn blowing, bursts
OF anvils and the swapping of fire
crackers. Kentucky nectar flows free
ly, even before breakfast, but never so
freely as to prevent the truly piouS man
from attending church and paying de-
vout attention to the sermon. In the
afternoon there are horse races, and
occasionally a chicken dispute. At
night the air is filled with music. Uncle
Tom thrums the banjo, there are Juba
dances, and the few remaining old
plantation negroes are In the seventh
heaven of delight. Occasionally Camp
bellite preachers celebrate the day in
baptizing new converts.
A story told by Asher G. Caruth is
worth repeating here. il was ber ore
the war. y negro preacher had been
holding powerful revival meeting.
Many negroes, some bad and others
worse, had been converted. All were
to be baptized on Christmas day. The
immersion was in Blue Lick creek.
Several colOred women had been bap-
tized, when tall, powerful Ethiop was
led into the stream by the officiating
clergyman. He seemed 10 be afraid of
the creek. The preacher led him out

roast turkey, but eat very little of it.
They reserve their appetite for terrapin
stews. and the terrapinS are genuine
diamond backs at $50 dozen.
Away out in Minnesota, Christmas is
usually cold, crisp day. The weather
is dry put very cold. Mems ears break
off and fall of the ground. Congress
man Boon, of that state, native Nor
Wegian, enjoys his Christmas in true
Scandinavian style. The farmers pay
long visits to their neighbors, half
dozen families staying at one farm.
The host and family with the guests
start in procession over the snow to the
house of one of the visitors. Then to
another, and so on until each has been a
host and guest to all in turn. Dancing
is the favorite amusement, and the
polsk, as they call it, the favorite dance.
These celebrations are termed Yulekiks.
Congressman BOen never misses one of
these Yulekiks. Each Norwegian has
q pipe in his mouth, and there are spirits
on the side table. Aside from this there
are Sprats, tongues, slices of German
sausage, and cheese with multipIicitv
of names and fiavors. There are mora
quadrilles than country dances. and
more WaltZeS than Quadrilles. AMONG
the dances there is an interminahIe
cOtilllon; the dancers standing around in
ring and the partners being distrih-
uted at random: card or watchword is
given to two persons of different sexes
and the Norwegian takes half dozen
whirlS with the lady whose card cor
responds with his own. After this She
resumes her place, while the Norwegian
