a powerful Searchlight upon the character or
great part of the members Of our oit-la'idcd

their nomination by the Republican State Con
yention took place yesterday at Mr. Morton's

from her design, why the breach of dis
clpllne IS not worth the scandal which to
resent it would occasion. Hence, she is
Ultimately allowed to PASS, with those
eXpostulatory shrugs which. like hard
words, break no bones. and, like
ghostly threats, have no terrifying inf1u-
ence over one case-hardened and deter
mined. Then she boasts of her prowess
wnen she comes back to the hotel, and
rouses IN her less fortunate Compatriots
and shyer English cousins that demon of
jealousy which is never wholly asleep in
the female breast.
This kind of woman is one to set the
teeth OF her more refined compatriots on
edge, covering them with shame, while
she affords Infinite cause for sardonic
amusement to others. Bold, aggressive
lnsensitiVe, pushing, she elbows her way
through the world, careless as to wi ose
feet she treads On--whose ribs she digs
lnto-whose preiudices she shocks-whose
sensibilities she wounds. She is doubt
less good and true and pure, and has all
those more sterling qualities which wear
well in The home and family; but she is
vulgar TO the back bone. and knows
as little of the sentiment of
social modesty as she does of the
dlterential calculus. She has but ole
end IN vlew-to have good time, and to
see all that there is TO be seen How
this is to be accomplished does not trou-
bic her, nor yet her daughters, who are
her copies in all things, save that the
pertness of youth takes with them the
place of the aggressiveness of maturity
| Those daughters indeed are fearsome
creatures In Italian towns where no
well-conducted woman of any class is to
be seen walking alone-not to speak of
lie signoriDe''-they dash about the
streets unaccompanied by mother, man
or maid -unaccompanied even by each
other. If they conform so far to
the stupid prejudice of the effete
world in which they find them
selves, as to go in pairs down the
hotel steps, they part in the streets. One

What contrast to him is that slightly
efemlnate and carefully-groomed Young
man fresh from Paris, where he has been
studying pictorial art and learning that
other art of contempt for all his national
life! His hair is carefully parted in the
middle and his mustaches are as carefully
waxed and twisted. He wears the most
taultIeSS garments; and the large bow of
his soft, sllken tie is a miracle of aesthetic
coloring. His fingers are covered with
rings, and there is a suspicious glitter in
the shadow cast on his arm by his long
white cuff His appetite is fastidious and
his manner of living exclusive. He dis
dams the common table, and has
his meals apart at a little round
sulky' set in the embrasure of the win
dow-frOm which point of vantage he
surveys the vulgar herd eating in con-
mon, as some high-bred stag hound might
survey a troop of Gaderene swine 1t

into human face than he manages to
throw into his; impossible for man to
express more clearly his exalted estimate

ing soldierly general, who served with so
much distinction in the great war, was
never one Of those rude boys we have
just seen banging about the drawing
room, speaking at the top Of his voice at
the table, trying TO swarm up the marble
statue in the garden and generally misbe-

bright and womanly, so loving and eff

whose sole thought was for her 0 wn plea

mothers. As little could she be one OF
