THE ATLANTA ExposITJoy

The Cotton States and International Exposition was grandly opened yester- day and all the indications are that it will be shining success. Of course it will not be as big or as magnificent as the show at Chicago, but there will be much that will amuse, interest and instruct. Perhaps the most impressive feature of the affair will be the Ne gro's building, a structure designed by a negro, built by negro workmen and filled with the products of negro indus try and skill. It is probable that the contents of this building will be an eye-opener to the whites of both the South and the North who may see them. The treatment of the negro by the managers of the exposition has already been an eye-opener to the people of the North who have had the idea that the gulf between the negro and the white is much wider in the South than 1t is in the North. They were surprised when they read that one of the speak CTS at the opening would be Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, Alabama, one of the leading negros of the coun- try. He was conspicuous figure in the distinguished company that took part in the opening ceremonies, and he showed thorough and right apprecia- tion of the situation when he said: 'In no way have the value and manhood of the American negro been more fitting ly and generously recognized than by the managers of this magnificent expo

sitlon at every stage Of its progress, It Is a recognition which will do more to cement the friendship of the two races than any occurrence since the dawn Of our freedom"
 One thing which will not be conspic- uous at Atlanta is "board of lady managers" There is a Woman's building full of interest and significance and some very ingenious and able wo- men have had and will have promi- nent part in the management of the show Perhaps a "hoard of lady man. agers" will not be greatly missed.
 One exposition differeth from another in glory and the Atlanta exposition will be glorious in a way that will take the shine off any one glory that made the Chicago exposition so famous, The Second company of the Fcot Guard of the Governor of Connecticut will spend a whole week there next month and that will be memorable week to those who are so fortunate as to be able to see New Haven's pride and watch the ac- oordant movement of tfie splendid and serried legs thereof

HE CAN EAT TIP

Police Commissioner Gilhuly Is confi- dent that the man whom he wants to see lon the foroe'' can fiat up' to nearly or quite the required weight. Probably he can. There are a few men who grow leaner and leaner when they try to fiat up," but most men can gain quite as much flesh as is good for them if they eat, drink, sleep and work with an eye single to fat. So we may expect to see the astute commits sioner's man soon a member of the finest, unless he is so anxious to be appointed that his efforts to fiat up'' do not work well.
 Probably the board would be safe in accepting the commissioner man with out waiting for him to fiat up" There is no reason to think that he is one of the exceptional men who cannot fiat up" under any circumstances, and if he were made member of the force he would in all probability soon be a little fatter than he really ought to be. Indeed, he might be a great deal fat ter. It is interesting to notice what the sure pay, the comfortable mind,
 the moderate work, the cheerful con- versation, the light exercise, the gen. tie pride and the mild ambition of a policeman will usually do for his bodily condition. A policeman usually has no trouble about getting to be fat enough. Usually his trouble is in the other direc- ton. So we think that it would be entirely safe for the board to appoint Commissioner Gilhuly's man. He would be pretty sure to fiat up" natur- ally after his appointment. But if he l is made of the right stuff, and if the Board is memorable he will "fat up' even if he has to shut himself up in a coop and be treated as Thanksgiving turkeys are.

The South an Inviting Field.
Itrom the Worcester spy.l


 For nearly half q century the only sectional political organization in this country has been the democratic party. Had it been true to the principles of Jefferson and Jackson it would have remained national in fact as well as in name. But when it departed from the faith of its founders and became a. party of expediency it threw away all the elements of its strength except its name, and on that and on the record of an honorable youth it has preserved its organization. Very few of the younger generation of voters that train in the ranks of that party know what it's history has been and what a sorry record it has made during the past half century. Most of these adhere | to it for the same reason that the ma jority of foreigners join it as soon as they are naturalized, because the name, democratic, signifies to their minds a party whose principles must be those | upon which our government was found- led. The newly-come foreigner is ex- cusable for his error. Having left one of the nlonarehical countries of the old world to find @ home with the democ- racy of the new, he naturally affiliates with the party whose name represents
 his hopes, his aspirations, his longings | for liberty.
 The great inflow from Europe began
 in 1S45, when 114,971 aliens landed at
 our Atlantic ports. During the twen- ty-five preceding years the total of ar
 rivals was 953,914 The inflow for the l decade beginning with 1845 was 3,057,- 1 S33, and the entire immigration from | 1S45 to 1860, inclusive, was 4,089, ,866. | Most of these more than four million | foreigners settled in the northern states east of the Missouri river. From this four million people the democratic par ty recruited it's ranks and gained what | strength it had in the north. Except for them it would have been a minority party, because there was a steady | movement from it to the whig party of native American citizens after Clay and Webster established it upon the great | principles of tariff protection, river and harbor improvements, national roads | and general national development. And | had not the slavery issue been forced upon the country and diverted atten- | tion from these great issues, the whig party would in all probability have ac- quired permanent control of the eoun- l try.
 Prior to the slavery agitation the whig party was dominant in Delaware, | Maryland, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Tennessee and Ken lucky, each sending whig senators and a large body of whig congressman. Indiana was a whig state, as was Ohio l as a rule, while Vermont, Massachu- setts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New Jersey were generally reliable, and New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia
 were debatabla ground. Alabama, South Carolina, Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas and Texas, of the slave states | and Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa were soHdly democratic.

7----------=--'--
 Hiuts on Bicycling.
 From Harper's Round Table.1


 Bicycling for boys is different in most details from bicycling for girls, and we must speak separately of these, as in- deed the two should be enjoyed sepa- rately generally. A boy always has more endurance, and can tire out girl in four miles. He should therefore either ride only in company of his own sex, or he should, when riding with a girl, keep to her standard rather than try to bring her up to his. This is hard work for the boy, and needs his con- stant attention during the ride, SC much so indeed, that he will do better not to ride with girls at all.
 To begin with, then, let us take the ordinary upright position, such a posi- ton as will correspond to the upright position assumed by any one who is walking, by a good horseman in the saddle, by a cross-country runner in his run. There are rules for all these, and they are relatively the same. You want to give yourself plenty of room to breathe in. The chest ought to be well out, therefore, the shoulders thrown back, and the head up, so that you will not be crowding all the veins that send blood into your head by letting your neck sink into your shoulders. This is the same in Misunderstanding, running, walking and rowing. You can assume this position while sitting and reading this article by following this simple rule: Sit squarely on the chair. Then fix your mind on an imaginary spot in your chest bone or "sternum, just halfway between your pectorals and on line with them. Then try to ''iift' this point up as high as you can. Your abdomen will naturally be contracted, or will Ego in,'' as you say. The small of your back will curve in, and the back of your neck at the base of the brain will press backwards, while your chin is brought in close to your neck in front, at the same time the shoulders are pressed back. When this position is exaggerated, it looks somewhat pompous and idiotie, but it is the cor rect position for the trunk of the body, and when it becomes natural 1t looks natural.
 This is the position you should as- sume when you are in the saddle of a bicycle. Of course no one, man or boy, can keep up in this position all the time, but you should keep as near 1t as you comfortably can. Comfort is real ly the basis of all such positions, and while, to certain extent, comfort is the result of habit, still more upright position is more natural to one than to another rider.

Washington the other day, was Eng fish by birth, cosmopolitan in eduea- tlon and experience : a practical farmer and journalist, a soldier in the last year of the war; when he was twenty one years old. He had studied natur- al history from boyhood, and began his work as entomologist while he was scarcely out of his teens, In 1861 he was made State entomologist of Missouri, in 1877 chief of the United States Ento- mologist commission and in 1878 Gov ernment Entomologist in the Bureau
 now the department of Agriculture, which place he resigned a year ago. He had been lecturer at several col leges and had been given several earned degrees; while in 1873 the French gov ernment gave him gold medal of the first class for his services to French grape culture by his studies of the American phylloxera-one of the few insect pests America has given the old world to partly balance the many insect pests the old world has sent over here; also he was given the red ribbon of the Legion of Honor He had received many honors from foreign scientific societies and performed many services for the United States govern
 ment. He died in the prime of life, within four days of his fifty-second birthday.

FOR SOUND MONEY.

The Republican party of New York, by its delegates in convention assem- bled, made very satisfactory declara- tion of principles. Especially satisfac- tory is the declaration that ''We be- lieve that the nations honor as well as the material interests of our citizens, demands the maintenance of national currency, every dollar of which, wheth- CT in gold, silver or paper notes, shall be of equal value and equal debt-pay- ing or purchasing power, and we de- clare our unalterahle opposition to the free and unlimited coinage of silver. Any imitation of the currency of the country by degrading the standard of value to the silver basis is distinctly repudiated"
 That's the talk! No uncertain sound or uncertain meaning about that! This declaration will be a good one for other Republican conventions to imi- tate.
