AND NOW TO WORK.

The Democratic Congressional con-
vention did it's work quickly and we'll
yesterday. Peter j. Otey, of Lynch
burg, has been named as the standard
bearer in this district, and it behooves
every Democrat in it to work for his
success. Whatever feelings were enter.
tanned before the result was announced
should now be forever buried and only
the triumph of the party considered.
That the Democrats will have no
walkover this fall is conceded. The Re.
publicaus Will undoubtedly nominate a
strong man at their convention to day,
and will enter the field full o: hope and
ready to make an aggressive fight.
To successfully overcome this the
Democratic party must present E. solid
front to the foe. Let all dissensions be
thrown aside; let all personal feelings
be forgotten, and let every Democrat in
the district do all in his power to win
the sought for goal, Major Otey is man
who enjoys the confidence and respect
of all. Let us see how big majority
we can roll up for him in November.

EnamclinE Cast Iron.

1t is noted us a somewhat singular
fact that there nro not more than two
processes for cnamcling cast iron, not
withstanding the amount of ingenious
effort put forth III this direction One
of these Is the hot process, in which the
iron, heated to Il vivid rod, is powdered
with tlux powder, borosilicate of lead
distributed with a sieve, then heated
and when the fiuX fuses it is powdered
afresh with glass more soluble, forming
tho glaze of the enamel, but this opera
ton is attended with danger and is not
adapted to large articles or for dccora-
ton. The second process, which meets
tho objections named, consists in dress
ing or coating the article first with mag
nctic oxide then dipping it in borosili-
Gates of lead, colorcd by metallic oxides,
to which is added IA little pipe clay, III
order to give rather more body. The
article thus covered cold by dipping or
with brushes, is put into the furnace,
tho enamel adhering and vitrifying at
the usual furnace temperature used by
enamolers, and by putting n coating of
colorcd enamel with brush OH a first
coat simply plain it is possible to make
any decorations desired, which may be
burnt IN at one operation for outdoor
vases, eto New York Sun.

ODDITIES OF scoTcHMEN.
Some Delightful Peculiarities Pointed Out
by an Excellent Authority.


Some delightful oddities of Scotch
character arc given in Wilmot Harri-
sons new book, says Tho Scottish
American.
Professor Adam Ferguson, tho author
Of Roman History" at whose house
Burns and Scott met for the first and
only time, eschowed wine 'A.id animal
food, "but hugo masses of milk and
vegetables disappeared before him. In
addition. his temperature was regulat-
ed by Fahrenheit, and often, when sit
ting quito comfortably, he would start
up and put his wife and daughters i'll
connection because his ego had fallen
on the instrument and he was q degree
too hot or too cold" Yet at the age of
70 he started for Italy with but single
companion to prepare for new edition
of his "Roman History" nor did no die
till he had attained the age of 90.
Another character" is DR.. Alexan-
der Adam, rector of the high school and
author of a work OH Roman antiquities
and man of extraordinary industry.
When mt college, he lived Oh oatmeal
and small beans, with all occasional
penny loaf, in lodging which cost him
fourpenco week In later life ho de-
voted himself absolutely to the work of
teaching. In addition to his classes in
tho high school he appears to have had
for his private pupils some of tho most
eminent Scotchmen Of his day.
Rev. Sir Henry Wildwood Moncrciff,
member of Scottish family distin-
guished during several generations in
connection both with church and state,
appears to have given wonderful Sun
day suppers This most admirable and
somewhat old fashioned gentleman was
ono of those who always dined between
sermons, probably without touching
wine. He then walked back from his
small house in the east end of Queen
street to his church, with his bands, his
little cooked hat, his tall cane and his
cardinal air; preached, if it was his
turn, a sensible, practical sermon, walked
home in the same style, took tea about
8, spent some hours i'll his study, at 8
had family prayers, ut which he was
delighted to sec the friends of his SONS.
after which the whole party sat down
to roasted harcs, goblcts Of wine and his
powerful talk -

Forgot His Name.

DR.. Beverly Cole is very absentminded
Though he has wonderful faculty for
rccollecting faces, he can never remember
him endless embarrassment.
He always calls in person at the branch
postoflicc for his mail, and the postal
clerk hands it out without word, as he
knows the doctor. Cole went to tho Office
recently, and there was new face ut the
window. He stopped and after few mo-
ments pause inquired:
Amy mail for mc?"
What name, pleascP"
Let INC Scc-ah, " and he racked his
brain, but the name had escaped him. In
confusion no walked to and fro in the
Office and was on the point of going home
In despair when he saw friend coming.
All, now have it," he said to himself
He'll call mo by namo.'
'How arc you, doctor?" was the friend S
greeting. The doctor was so mad he
wouldn't speak to him. Finally he turn.
