AMERICAN NOBILITY.

Is the name of an unusual work that
has just made its appearance from
Scribners and is sent to the Light
table from the book house of Tengg,
this city. 1t is a 500 page 12mo, by
Pierre De COulevan, and certain to be
read. 1t is practically an answer, from
the French view, of the question-in
how far it is wise for an American
heiress of the very best type to marry
foreign nobleman. The conclusions
are mixed, and each reader will decide
according to personal sentiment. The
work is charmingly written. The lam
guage is chaste. The situations decid-
eddy of the French type. The punish
ments that follow the peculiar views of
French conubial life are dramatically
drawn. Some delightful views of the
best French society are given. 1t is
a work that will absorb. AS mere
novel it is fascinating. AS a study in
sociology, it is suggestive, absorbing.

There is no spasmodic Improvement
noticed in the trade and business of
the country, nor is an Improvement Of
that kind to be desired, but prices are
advancing, mills are running, orders
for goods are multiplying, labor is be-
ing employed in greater volume and at
higher wages, money is being offered
for investment in greater quantities
ard at decreased rates of interest, the
national treasury has all the gold that
it requires, the country is selling more
and buying less abroad than for years,
all of which are reasons for concluding
that prosperity is coming to settle
down in our midst and make a perma-
nent abiding place on American soil.

There is a forced condition that is not
natural in the cotton market at pres
ent. The crop is maturing early on
account of dry hot weather and is
coming to market all in a bunch. AS a
result the supply is in excess of the
regular demand and prices are down.
They are also down because a fictitious
estimate of the crop has been indus
triously circulated. This is given
FEASIBILITY by the large amount of
cotton reaching market so early in the
season, but there will be a slump in
the cotton receipts that will astonish
the spinners and advance the price
ten to twenty per cent. The wise cot
ton growers see this and are holding
on to their bales.

The Democratic party needs mem
tor. 1t seems to lack the ability to
keep off the grass. What inconsistent
thing it will not do in order to prove it's
consistency has not yet been discov-
cred. The New Orleans Item empha-
sis this fact in calling attention to the
manner in which the critics Of Senator
Nc Emery have opened the gates for
their own condemnation. There was
mot a Democratic senator who thought
that his states industries would be adj
vanced by protection, who did not vote
for the protection of the specific articles
demanding protection in the state, as
the Dingley tariff bill was being dis
cussed, and then voted against the
bill as a whole when it was put upon
its final passage. Tillman, of South
Carolina. White of California Lindsay
of Kentucky, Mallory of Florida and
both the Georgia Senators, voted
against the tariff as a whole, while
they voted for the schedules that would
benefit their several states. Voted for,
to aid their states, voted against to es-
tablish a Democratic record. Here is
cowardice of a hight order. Nc Emery
cam well be congratulated on not being
found in that category of Democratic |
senators. He had the manliness and |
the courage to vote consistently for the |
sugar schedules and then when the bill |
was put on it's final passage to vote for |
the bill as a whole.
