Thia is Tonsh oa one of the high priests of radicalIsm. It has come. A Blaine organ calls Mr. Cleveland's ccmraenilable efforts to rid him self and the people of the extravagances entailed by loose Republican management aa ' cheese paring." Horrible thought! Tue Journal, after refraining three whole days frcm its mean criticism of Dr. Bartlett, "Washington, returned yesterday, like the ,"dog to its vomit," and this time attacks his congregation. The great anxiety of our contemporary to regulate the earth, its customs and conduct, according to its puny standard, 23 very amusing to the disinterested spectator. Neighbor, remember the fate of the fabeled toad that attempted to inflate its skin ta the dimensions of an ox. The President's sister seems to be contributing her share to the : social pleasures of "Washington life. A dispatsh says: ''Miss Cleveland has been receiving two hours each day since she entered the Executive Mansion, and as she is an unusually agreeable -talker, and has quick wit, many have sought "(he opportunity afforded by these "at tomes" to make her acquaintance ; for the Saturday handshake and the speedy flight with brass buttons and a baton in the background arc .hardly sufficient for such a regelt.", "While in "Washington we tru3t our distinguished contemporary. Colonel John O. Kew, will call on President Cleveland and wish him well. Now that Mr. Blaine has cooled down sufficiently to ask admittance to the White House, we hope to Bee other Republicans follow suit and see the man -whose motto is, "Tell the truth." And then may we ask that our distinguished contemporary will call his able staff together and counsel that hereafter, the Journal will, like Mr. Cleveland, look straight ahead, and thus cease to squint. DOWN A SEWER. Mr. Cleveland was found in a sewer once. It is a good story. The Blaine organs should set it to music and play It some day when they are feeling tired and lonesome. The incident is related by a correspondent of the L'ew York Son, and he received it from a strong Republican from Buffalo, who at the time Mr. Cleveland was Mayor of the citywas carrying on some large operations which required him to get up early every morning and visit the Buffalo lake docks. A big sever job was being carried on by the Alderman, which was involving the expenditure of a good deal of money, and just then another appropriation was to be called for. It was beginning to make a noise in the city. The gentleman referred to drove one morning abont daylight down toward the dock, when he caught sight of the Mayor near the unfinished sewer. He reined up his horses and asked the Mayor what he was doing there. Mr. Cleveland was pretty well besmeared with mortar and mud, especially on his boots. He told Mr. that he had been looking thoroughly for himself into thia job, and that he regarded it as a swindle, and it should have no more money from the city treasury if he could prevent it. "And sew," eaid the Buffalo Republican, "I am soing home to vote for him for Governor." Mr. Cleveland was at the time running for Governor of New York. This is the way, then, that Mr. Cleveland was found in a eewer. We refer it to our esteemed contemporaries of the Republican press. THE REPUBLICAN SPOILSMEN. The Republican organs are endeavoring to give the impression that the rush on Washington by the Democratic office-seekers is quite unprecedented. They are simply not posted or are making false statements knowingly, Lincoln and his Cabinet, it is said, were so bored and badgered that they Ladly bad time to eat and sleep and Mr. Lincoln, oppressed with the feeling that the country was cn the verge ot disaolution.ltearfully exclaimed: "I seem to be sitting in one end of a great temple, importuned to let apartments, while the temple is fiercely burning at the other end." It took the battle of Bull Run, with its train of disasters, to drive these hungry hordes of Northern Republicans out of Washington back to their homes. When they thought the rebels were advancing upon the city from the South this gang of office-beggars made a masterly Advance due north, where there were none to molest or make them afraid. It was Republican office-seekers that cost poor Garfield his life, and a Republican office-seeker who committed the bloody deed. Grant was nearly worried to death by the same old crowd that nearly drove Mr. Lincoln into the Potomac cr a lunatic asylum, and poor Hayes stood aghast when the crowd came 'who by lying, fraud, perjury and various kinds of rascality had finally forced him into the Presidency. Colonel McCIare, of the Philadelphia Times, is good authority oa this point, and he says: "Any who can recall the Republican revolution of must justly appreciate the exaggerated pictures drawn bv discomfited organs. The rush for Sice dow exhibited In Washington does not approach the republican rush for place in J801. Even when civil war was raging, the city, the departments and every available nook and corner of Washington were filled with the most Importunate spoilsmen." The clamor at that time made by the Republicans was unutterably diagracefal. If an officeholder was a Democrat he had to get cut p. d. q. Colonel McCIare concludes as ollows: "Of the many more than 100,000 Federal placemen all are. of one political Caith, and most of them holding place as a reward for active partisan effort, There rs a few exceptions, but the Democrats In Federal place In any community are like

angels' visits, few and far between. Now they have triumphed over the party that has relentlessly proscribed them, and as Democratic and Republican human nature are abont the same in quality, the Democrats will clamor for the spoils; but they must far surpass any demonstration of placemen yet made to equal the eruption of the importunate placemen of 1S61."

THE DYING CHIEFTAIN. Trie heart of the Nation is at the bedside of General Grant, throbbing with sympathy for the sufferer. The attending physicians tell us that his end is near. The hand that wielded the sword that commanded the armies of the Union is nerveless. The stalwart frame that endured the march, the fight, heat and cold, beating rain and chilling wind, is wasted and aweary. The voice that ordered hosts to the onset now calls the name of a child, beyond the ocean, whom he would see once more. Twenty years ago to-day, officers in uniform, booted and . spurred, waited upon him for commands; to-day wife and daughter constitute his devoted staff and physicians assume authority over him. A prisoner of an incuarable malady, the hero of Shilohand the Wilderness is within it3 deadly grasp, and no arm is strong enough to deliver him: the chieftain is djing. In this hour, when the grim mooter has claimed him, all differences between any of the living and the departing one are consigned to formet, ulness. Not a soldier of the South who confronted him, not a voter of the North who opposed him politically, but would now extend an arm to avert the untimely fate which is befalling him. No longer the warring leader, no longer the political candidate, no longer the partisan, he is one of the great brotherhood of man. If he had faults they parted from recollection with the coming of the tidings of his approaching end. We no see only the military chieftain under whose leadership the Union was saved, the exChief Magistrate of the Nation, the illustrious citizen. The anxious watch of the loving over the couch of the fated one will be kept also from ocean to ocean and from the lakes to the gulf. The tears they ehed the Nation feels and responds with the sentiment illustrated in the line One touch ot nature makes the whole world kin, THE PATENT OFFICE. The Patent Office under Republicanism was managed as loosely as the other departments of the Government. There are now 20, COO cases awaiting consideration. The old Commissioner leaves a fine job to his Derne era tic successor. A correspondent of the New York World has been nosing around the Washington departments, and his experience is valuable and worth knowing. From him we get our information. In the consideration of the filling of the vacancy in the Patent Office Commissioner seme very interesting facts have been brought out. It has been brought to the attention of the new Secretary that there are 20,000 cases hung up in the office awaiting action. These cases are practically so tied op that without a change in the system nothing can be done with them. Through a eimple chants an early decision in a majority cf the cases might be obtained. As a fee in each case la $10, a large earn of money would be at once saved to the Government. Under the old management of the Tatent Office every obstacle has been placed in the way of securing pat?nts to inventors. Where applications have been rejected they have been rejected in such technically worded decisions that no inventor without consulting with a skilled patent attorney and spending more money for further examination, could tell wherein he was wrong and what waa necessary to set him right. A great many inventors are too poor to do this, acd become discouraged. The majority of the cases that are at present hung up is said to be of the class just described. Those who are aiming at a reform in this office merely eopceet that decisions in the future should be worded in simple language, so that any inventor could tell from the decision itself what was needed to set him right. The be is probably trouble ahead for Bjöby Lincoln. A Washington special says: "The Swaim matter will not be allowed to sleep. Hislriends will, at the next session ol Congress, call lor an Investigation as to the manner in which the Secretary of War spent so much money to try the case. They will ask for an Itemized account This, when famished, I am sure, will show Mr. Lincoln up in a very bad light 1 don't mean to impute any wrong doing on the part of the late Secretary, but it is my opinion that he spent a great deal of money in securing so-called evidence which he ehoula not have spent" "Will General Swaim s friends endeavor to have him reinstated by the President?" "The President will probably be asked to remit certain parts of the sentence, as was done by Mr. liayes In the case of Fitz John Porter. That part of the sentence which disqualified General Porter from holding oCice was remitted." Mr. Conan t, the missing managing editor of Harper's Weekly, as announced a few days ago, was seen in Florida by a friend. This friend, a Mr. Thrall, a New York jeweler, is the gentleman who claims to have seen him. He says: I have known Mr. Conant lonr or five years, and I have seen him frequently in that time. When I first saw him in Jacksonville he wore a business tuck coat ot a browa stnff, with little specks in it Ue had a small gold curb chain similar to the one be wore in New York, and from it hung a Masonic charm. It was a new one. and had two eagles on it. Ue was a Mason, and 1 have seen him many times In different lodges. Two weeks before he disappeared I met him in the United States Hotel, spoke to him. and talked with him a few minutes. Abont a week earlier I met him In the elevated elation at Fulton street We nodded and passed on. An international money-order rate is now in operation.

President Cleveland and Service Iteform. Civil An Enemy Sowing Republican Cockle Anion? the Wheat of Indiana Democracy. Stataamen Owe Math to NewrpapersWatliloKton Aristocracy Made to Appear Ridiculous Republican Offlce-llold. ers Repentant and Full of Advice Our Mr. Carr Looks on Through Editorial Glasses. (Special Editorial Correspondence. Washington, March 10. Office-seekers are numerous but still a little ehy, owing to Mr. Cleveland referring all applicants to the heads of departments, and suggesting due regard for the tenure of office act. . His civil service notions are thoroughly discussed, and there is not a little speculation aa to what he may do. What the Democracy desire of him, however, is patent to the world. If he expects to renke his administration a blessing to the whole country he must imprint upon it the teal of Democracy, and in all important matters there must be a right-about-face from Republican methods. This is what is expected by the masses, and this was the reason why they voted for his election. To accomplish these things the President needs the support of the great Democratic party. This in turn Implies party organization, which by no means argues that the patrorage be given to the other fellows. Reform to be complete demands that those in sympathy with reform be placed in offi cial position, and until this is done nothing worthy of the name can be accomplished. During the past week I enjoyed the pleasure of shaking the hands of more admirers of the Sentinel than I thought was possible to have assembled here at this time, They hail from all quarters of the Unicn and are of the kind for whom the Sentinel rooster is proud to crow. I gathered their views regarding the question upon which I am writing and they unanimously favor ciyil service methods within the party. They say that it is time to go outside for talent and ability when the home supply is exhausted, but not before. The advocacy and maintenance of a policy presupposes these methods, and the opinion t the people is based upon the logic of the fact Mr. Cleveland's selection of his Cabinet waa in keeping with this idea. He did not go outside of his party, nor would he have occasion to do eo until he exhausted the home supply of greatness and statesmanship resident in the persons of such men as Senator Voorhees, ex-Senator McDonald, Judge Thurman and others. In the lower grades of office, even to the simplest clerkship, the eame rule and principles should apply. The continued success of the Democratic party, the consequent reform in the administration of the Government, and, in fact, the stability of our institutions, all demand the adoption of such methods and the shaping of a policy such as to accord with the genius of Democracy. The Situation at present makes this imperative, and the great majority of the people will bail it as reform. Mr. Cleveland is perfectly conversant with the necessities of the case, and his slowness to act out the notions of some people is what leads many to misjudge him. At the proper time, and with that firmness and justice that have characterized him in the past, he will so order affairs as to give joy to all who wish well to our glorious country. He detests personal Government, would lessen Executive power, and to these ends he refers preferments to the heads of departments and as near as possible to the people. "AN IXIMY HATH D0X THIS." The political wheatfields of Indiana will show a large growth of cockle in Democratic localities unless the over zealous friends of Mr. McDonald manifest better judgment and better Democracy. If they love McDonald, so do we all. If they sorrow over his not having been called to a Cabinet position. Indiana respects that sorrow, if unfeigned. But when a few, claiming much power and professing real grief, charge the defeat of Mr. McDonald to the Vice President, they exceed proprieties and rely upon a wish that fathers a falsehood. Such an act would bs beneath Mr. Hendricks, and would not be in keeping with the personal relations of the gentlemen in question. Mr. Hendricks is an honor to his State, and it has been the wish of ail the people to honor him. He ia honored with the second place in the gift of the people, acd he has no further ambition. Where, then, is the ground for the charge that to serve his purpose he has consigned Mr. Mc Donald to the rear? Who, knowing him. would believe he would do this if he could? What man, seeing Mr. Cleveland as he now appears, would believe he would yield in such a case? This piece of political scandal must receive no sanction in Indiana. It is the work of an enemy sowing cockle. It is inspired by the Kepubhcaa press of the State, and the Democrats who peddle it around are misguided and over zealous, to eay the least. Mr. McDonald does not sanction it and can not sanction it. His instincts as a gentleman and his loyalty as a Democrat preclude the possibility of his desiring such. Prominent Democrats from other States would not dignify the story by even listening to it. They have a higher estimate of the leading men of Indiana, the banner Democratic State of the North, than to believe two of their number eqHal to such cetty jealousy. Mr. Cleveland selected his Cabinet to suit his judgment and choice, as be had a perfect right to do, and It is indirect discourtesy to him to eyen imply, as in this case, that he wa? influenced by unworthy considerations, even in one instance. Away with this injurious falsehood, and let it be heard of no more! TEX EA8T A.KD THE SOUTH are well represented, but they owe more to their newspapers than to the greatness of their men. The press is appreciated and well treated by these people, and its power is trade good use of. The phrase, "good nse of" I mean in the sense of effectiveness, for it is cot good to misuse a power by exerting it to please inferior men in exalted positions. Many men are high in official station wh, if citizens of Indiana, could not be elected to a county office. To illustrate the method without at all disparaging the men, I might ask how came New York to be entitled to two Cabinet positions? Whence came greatness to the little State of Delaware? On inauguration day Randall ward clubs from Philadelphia were here with banners and regalia, practicing a sort of hero-worspip, possibly with the hero left out. This, too, I mention with no iotententlon to reflect on Mr. Randall, but only to draw a contrast between sections as to the wavs they hava for asserting their claims and getting recognition. In the above instances the pre s and the power of organization are brought into requisition with telling effect In Indiana the reverse is the practice with corresponding results, some great men of that State being exceptions. No press or epecial organization backs the leading men of Indiana in their labors for fame and the credit of the State, bat it is easy to start a ort of Kilkenny cat-fight at the suggestion of Republicans that Democratic leaders may do battle against one another. The exceptions I refer to are In the case of Senator Voorhees, who unaided by cecial organization, succeeds himself in the United Btatea Senate, and in that of Mr. Hendricks, who by virtue of his native powers, ii now Vice President of the United States, Senator Voorhees,

standice before a popular assemblage, baa no enperior as an orator. In the Senate Chamber yen might cast about for an abler statesman and a more faithful pubtis servant. He stands high upon tbe lalderof fame: the "God bless you" of his constituents is as a halo around his head, and his near future is resplendant with the brightest possibilities. Mr. Hendricks, at present, is in the past, Is "Indiana's Favorite Son." Who will say he is not deserving of honors and tbe cordial support of the people of his State? He ia alive to the demands of the hour and the Nation regards him as a Eafe man. These men ataad in part for the West, and it is not creditable to these in whose interest they specially labcr that horn? organizations acd the press do not come unitedly to their aid, and, like tbe background in a picture, show fjrta the perfections of the foreground in the scene. EKPCBLICAIt SIKKIRS EEPENTANT. During the heat of the Presidential campaign republican officeholders were loud in their professions of readiness to resign should the Democratic party come into pewer. No resignations, with the exception of a few, have been received in any of the departments. They cling to office with wonderful tenacity not so much, perhaDS, f jr love of the pay as to te?t the President's love for Republicans, and for office-holding for life. Those who would leava the country in case of a Democratic administration have cot gone yet. and those who would die rather than vote for a Democratic President are still elive, and not a few of them are loud in their profession of belief that the change is the best thing that could have o carred for the entire country. After a little while there will be many others to occupy the mourner's bench and we will have more Democrats, by profession, than we will hrws any use for. Ducks go in single file to the pond and observe Bcma regularity, but hungry and unprincipled politicians and official barnacles break for the winning side with irregular Btep and precipitation. Self is predominent these days. Human nature in its poverty makes a sorry picture, and politics without principle is held up to the execration of good rcen. Uppen ting cf political sins is very csmmtndable, but while the glaring guilt is fcrglven it must te remembered that taera remains a stain to caution against too much confidence. It will net do to put a deserter on guard, because some euch persons have turned out to be spies and Greeks bearing gifts. THE APIxa ARISTOCRATS of Washington will be given a mild rebuke by the simplicity of Mr. Cleveland's life and by his thorough American notions and practices. The aping cf foreign court lita end the day-dreams ot the young la lies to be allied to titled nobility may be cured by bis Influence and particularly by his frugal habits and quiet living. Washington is the seat of imported folly and fashion. Scandal accompanies the imports, and the people living here and following in the wake of a few enoba are made the subject of loud, long

laughter. Political adventurers have swelled this crowd. These barnacles have been the pliant tools of the shoddyites, and to-day they stand in tear and trembling lest they lose their positions at the eame time that they are taught an etiquette becoming to a free people. M. W. Carr. ALI, AKOCNü TBE HOUSE. Parlor Decorations Care ot FlannelsCulinary Olnts. The Season makes the following suggestion regarding late styles in the arrangements of the parlor: Carpets and rugs must be pretty much alike, and in great harmony or not too great contrast to the other appurtenances of the room. Turkish and Persian patterns axe very faslionable; the richest carpets of this kind are now said to be manufactured in France. An ornamental clock is never placed on the chimney-piece, s single statuette, or group in marble, bronze, or terra cotta takes Its place between candelabras or branches, acd lamps placed la beautiful Chinese cr Japanese vases, with lace shades answering the window curtains; magnificent guipure, or embroidery of the middle ages being preferred; these indeed are often replaced by draped stores of light ails:, yet suiting best stained glass windows, which have become bo extremely fashionable of late years, as it is so easy to do the staining at home by means of "Patent Glacier, an excellent imitation of stained glass, and made at a fraction of its coat. As wall decorations are the rage of th 3 day, elegant cabinets and racks to hang on the walls are greatly favored; these, when intended for dressing-rooms furnished in artistic taste, are rarely without draperies of some kiad, the mirrors and looking-glasses being draped in harmony. Cottage pianos, too, are concealed as much as possible in the earlier part of the day by costly stuffs elaborately arranged, whether placed against the wall or turned round to the font. The question of flowers those natual gems which giv e brightness and grace to the whole arrangement remains for ns to mention; do cot fear, fair ladies, want of symmetry in placing "here, there, and everywhere" in your many-hued vases these favorites of nature, but avoid bringing strong-smelling blossoms and bulbs into your drawing or reception rooms if the time of year does not permit of the windows being opened. Green plan ts should be placed in jardenieres of bronze or Japanese porcelain In any niches or empty spaces, as they form a charming background. A circular issued by G. R. Sherwood, underwear manufacture, to his customers, gives some excellent hints on THE WASHING Ol FLA5NKLS. "Turn the garment, the soiled side outwash in a prepared suds of soft tepid waterdo cot use hot or cold water do not rub soap on them, nor ecour on a washboard this is identical with the process used in 'falling' flannels in manufacture. Kinse in clean tepid water of the same temperature. Wring well, stretch smoothly aa possible, and dry in an even temperature. Avoid all washing liquids, cr 'preparations,' or soap strong with alkalies. Strong alkalies will destroy the fiber of any animal or vegetable matter, and this action is much accelerated by the aid of hot water. Never allow flanneis to freeze on the line. "It is idle to claim that any woolens may not be further shrunken indefinitely by continued and repeated abuse. But every woolen fabric will not shrink the same under equal treatment. Much depends on the quality of the wool; still more in tbe spinning and twisting of the yarn in manufacture. This can be done to forestall in a large measure the future shrinkage. It is scarcely necessary to say that it is not done in cheap goods, which are produced for sale with the sole object of rendering them sightly at the least possible price. It is the very poorest of poor economy to buy cheap wcolen undeciothing. If the wool is twisted and woven loosely, carded and combed adroitly to apparently fill out the fabrio to requisite quality to the touch and sight, it is bound to close up and assume at least its normal position in the process of washing. "By far the rnost general cause of shrinkage ia by abnse in washing. Perspiration will shrink when nothing else may. It Is a etrange fact that perspiration from some persons will shrink when that equally proine from others will not. This is owinjj to the difference in tbe acid properties of the eicretions of different bodies. It is apparent that this is a cause which can neither be foreseen or provided against." CVLI5ABY HINTS. If you can not obtain cream for nse In salad dressing, a substitute which will answer is made by thickening sweet milk with a little arrow root or cornstarch. If the diah In which e seal oped oysters and similar preparations are baked is well buttered, it will be a saving of time and money, for the oysters and crumbs will not stick to the diah. If yon wish to give a delicate and yet distinct onion flavor, to the dressing for a fowl,

-cil tbe onion till tender, changing the ater twice ; then chop it in very small bit, jnst as if it were raw. Roast goass and wild Dckfain to most palates by having the tijtssicg thus flavored. One cf the wiptst precautions to take when ou are taking is to have the oven perfectly c!ean, and yet it is one that is often nezlestsd, acd many an otherwise faultless dim Las been spoiled by the sifting of ashes from theupper grate in the oven. Spring Mfrap. Harper's Bazar, Dressy mantles for the spring are small in ebape. and are more often colored thai black. For the lat cool days they are made of frise velvet, Sicillenne, or figured camel's hair; while for summer weathear they are beaded grenadine, velvet-figured grenadine, crof see. They are now lined with a glacs etlx instead of eurah, and this is in changeable

colors, checke, cr fine strips. The triin.utnin are beaded passementeries and gathered frills j of lace, which may ba tbe French imita'iou thread lare, or else the new wool lace which ia called indiscriminately yak or Angora; ctenille frirgej are avain uesd, with drops cf jet among their headings, cr else with tinsel con bicedin the chenille strands; gilloons with beads and with tinsel, trim the colored mantles In shbpe these garments are quite ehcit behind, reaching on!y a short disuace below the waist line, and fashioned by tbre teams, giving two forms for the middle of the back that fit almost as closely as those of a dress, The sides are shoulder pieces all in one, and may form a small sleeve, or elae tbey merely lap forward on the the arm. The fronts may ba very long, or only extended half-way to the knees. A ribbon attached to the back seam inside ties around the aist, and there are other bands of elastic ribbon to hold tbe sides in place, or to ed just the fullness on the tournure. Thee garments are usually very high in the neck, and are trimmed there with a full frill of lace. All laces are now gathered instead ot being pleated, and a single low three inches wide, set just under the edge cf the garment, is considered sufficient trimming for plain mantles; this frill extends up each side of the front and passes around the neck; if there must be more elaborate trimming the edge of the garment is cut in points and finished with jetted pendants that fall on the lacs, or else there is a jetted network, or passementerie of jet plaques, stars, leaves or flowers, with drooping fringe set on above the gathered ede of the lace; there may also be two frills of lace, one narrower than tbe other, and bath tewed under the jet trimming. Wide satin ribben bows or sash loops and ends are added on the tournure of some mantles. The cape baqces formerly worn are ebown again, with the basque plain oyer the back and sides, while the arms pass out beneath the round cape. SHOULDER CAPES. For young ladies are new shoulder capes, with the fronts extended like a mantle; the eide pieces which cover the arms ara separated from the fronts and made to Ian over them like a fichu in a very graceful way. These are made of ottoman eilk, with beaded broidery upon them and chenille fringe. Brown and blue changeable frise velvet mantles, combined with brown Sicilienne and tinsel pasEementerie, are very dressy. The woollen reps with frise figures are made up in gray, ecru, and brown mantles trimmed with wool lace of a color t3 match. Black grenadine with jetted Btripes or flowers ia effective over a lining of mahogany red silk. For elderly ladies are black Inaia camel'sbair wraps with outlined figures that have the appearance of being woven of feathers. CLOTH JACKITS. The clcth jackets come In the shapes already noted, with fitted back quite short on the tournure, and loose fronts that are no longer than the back. Sometimes the French back formed ef only two pieces is used, while other jackets have the short English sidebodies, and there is usually a seam or dart taken from the armhole down the loose fiont. Smooth cloths merely finished by two rows of stitching make stylish jackets in dark brown, ecru, or beige colors: others are navy blue eerge, blue-black Cheviot, or in very wide diagonal rough-surfaced cloths. A standing collar, a vest outlined with braid. or one with military cross-rows of braid, and tide pockets with flaps are on these jackets. The rough Cheviot jackets in light shales ere to be worn with dresses of any color, and there are eome smooth fine cloths in ths light shades trimmed with darker braids Moit of these jackets are lined with silk, and in all cases the sleeves have silk lining to make them easy for putting off and on. NKWMARKKTs. The long Newmarket coats are made with loose fronts acd closely fitted backs, tbey have a pointed hood lined with chingeable silk, and are without trimming other than the stitching on their edges. Tney are made of serge cr of Cheviot, diagonal cloths, or the oatmeal or momie cloths with tiny specks raised on the surface. Large buttons ot metal cut in fanciful fignres are used on these long coats and on the shorter cloth jackets. Olive, brown, garnet, bronze-colored Newmarkets are fchown in Cheviot and other cloths. For midsummer travel are similar garments made of gray, ecru, or brown mohair, and also of pongee. ETOS JACKETS. For the house are are dressy little jetted jackets made in the Eton shape, like a Zouave, but straight in front instead of being curved. These are made of jetted net laid over a satin lining, and edged with jet fringe or lace; a frill of lace or a jet collar trims the neck, and the only fastening is by two ribbons tied in a bow at the throat. A drooping cuff of jet or of lace is on the sleeves. The lining is fitted by a saam down the middle ot the back, another under each arm, and a single short dart in front, but the beaded outside shows no seams but those under the arms and on the shoulders. It will also be made of dark velvet, to be worn over white blouse-waist of lace or of muslin, and is used for young girls over their white coshmere or flannelette dresse. JERSEYS. Jerseys have become a staple article, and are brought out with new trimmings each season. At present the fancy for wool goods extends even to jerseys, making those of wool considered more stylish than the elaborate silk and beaded affairs. The newest shapes are much shorter than those worn in the winter, and, like other garments, are shorter behind than in front. They are fitted with all the seams of a basque in some cases, while in others the front darts are omitted, and a vest is inserted in sloped seams that shape the jacket to the figure. For morning and plain wear dark jerseys have three lengthwise rows of Hercules braid, two inches wide, passing over the shoulders and to the end in back and front, representing box pleats. A belt of this braid is then added,' with a buckle to fasten it. More dressy jerseys of poppy red or cardinal have a vest and a border on tne hips, collar, and sleeves made of rows of Boutache set on end, with one edge turned in curves, while the other is ravelled ont like fringe. For yatching and other summer pleasures are navy blue jerseys trimmed with with braid, and with revers in front, on which are embroidered anchors or stars. The only beaded jerseys shown have the beads sewed in clusters at intervals, or in lines or stripes, A vest of velvet is inserted in silk jerseys, and rows of narrow velvet ribbon are placed lengthwise along the edge of the garment. No Fallare on lhe Social Side. I Washington Letter to the Springfield Republican. The Administration will not fail on its social side. The advent of Jackson to the White House was distinguished by excesses that will have no place now. Mr. Cleveland came down here accompanied by his clergyman brother, his three cultivated sisters and several nieces.and he took the oath of office on the little worn Bible that is hallowed by memories of his sainted mother. This ws a genuine touch of moral feeling, and it Illustrates the best aide of Cleveland character. Hla conduct of the White Honsa will be such as to meet the approbation of the

Ex-Presideut Artbn 'a Prairie Chickens. Washington Special. In the baggage that left ths White House to day was a coon .f prairie chickens, tue gift of Jcf se Spalding, Collector of the Port of Chfcuf o, to President Arthur. Mr. Spalding trapptd them down in the Indian Territory, aeout tte only region in tbe United States where it is cow poesiV:e to trap them. Yers ago many were caught in Kansas and Nbra&ka, but as settlements thicken the birdi become educated to know every sort of a trap. Mr. Arthur's coop of chickens has been cn the back porch cf the White House for several dajs, and has attracted almost as much attention as the President himself. It will go to Mr. Frelinghuysen's farm at Earitan, where Mr. Arthur will see his cbicfeens frcm time to time in the faturs, if they live. Seil covered wi!h living herbage or with euch dad vegetable matter as lve?. -t-w, wood, dung, etc., says Professor . WoUny, it warmer in winter and cooler in maimer than bare toll under similar conditions. The difference of temperature is ereatest in simrrer and least ia epring uad autumn. Bare toil heats more quickly in epring and cools more quickly in autumn than that covered with living or dead vegetable matter.

It operates in tbe same manner as tee ordinary (hears, but cuts much quicker and cleaner, without the least darger of injuring the fleece or the sheep. Habitual constipation is not only one of the most unpleasant, but at the same time one of the most injurious conditions of the hun. an system, and is but a forerunner of disease, unless removed. This is usually accomplished by the use of purgatives, which for the time afford relief, but after their immediate effects have passed they leave the system in a worse state than before. To effect a cure it is necessary that the remedy used ehould be one that not only by its cathartic effects relieves the bowels but at the Eame time acts as a tonic so as to restore the organs to a sound, healthy condition. This Prickly Ash Bitters wili do. It removes the cause and restores health. Taking all the facts into consideration, it appears clear to Mr. H. C. Sorahy that all the bright and beautiful tints of leaves in antnTn are ze early the earlier stages of decom position, and are due to the more or less considerable triumph of chemical forces over tbe weakened cr destroyed vitality of the living plant. He adds that one can not but feel that this is a very un poetical way in wbicn to regard tbe magnificent tints of a fine autumnal landscape, but it is not less tree tban that ih colored cloada of evening ruark the departing day. New Light on Rheumatism. "I had been completely disabled from rheum at iem. I used Parker's Tonic for kidney diseace, when, to my astonisbmant, the rheumatism completely disappeared." So writes Mrs. Henry Bogert, of No. 454 Atlantic avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y. Rheumatism arises from the failure of the kidneys to separate the uric acid from the blood. An object of pity In our place is a boy about fourteen years old, whose legs from tbe knees down are helpless. He has to walk on his hands and knees. Yet he enjoys riding cn a hacd sled as well as any one. He uses a pole with a spike in the end, and by sitting on the sled will, by the ase of his pole, reach tbe top of the bill almost as soon as the rest, and with the pole will guide himself down aain. We have seen him push birr self up to a big sled and catch on behind even while the horses are oa a trot Middleton Age. florsford's Acid Phosphate AS A BRAIN FODD. Dr. 8. F.
