C'o:t1ing in AujrtitMis. 1 rami M. iresory, iu St 3iciiois.J It wa on tic afternoon of the very warm-c-t tLiy in August tiiat the children came . running to i:u crying: 'There are .;:ie boys and girls front the villijge out on the hill, and some from the . hotel on tliC ii:otint:iiii, and they all have brought their s!cnU."' It seemed such a puzzle to me t!:at I ruse ar.d went out to &ee what v.a goin? on. When I reached tho spac ious bah-ony I was ü'most convinced that the whole valley had Inen bewitched. There weregatl e:ed at least twenty children ani half a dozen sU-ds. The boys were I racing the sleds up the steep slope of the hiil-side that roe from the road in front of the house, while the girls followed after as weii a- they could. It was' not by any means an easy feat to climb this slope. Though at a ca.-u d dame it seemed a soft and velvety as a wtil-kcpt lawn, it was to the unwary a delusion and a snare. The midsummer sun shines down upon the Adirondack mountains with as much ardor as on the city street-'. Though the nights are cool, frequently even cold, there are no dews, und usually but little rain. So the short thick grass that jraowu abundantly upon the ides of the les-er mountains, or, more properly sieakin:. the foot-hills, becomes t arc hei and smooth, and as slippery as ice. The children, then, had before them quite . an amount ot hard walking, but those child ren w ere like mountain-goats, hardy, willing ana aoie to eiinitj anything. I watched them with interest. At last the top was reached. Then, the sleds were turned m.-ide down, and the runners were rubbed vigorously with candles; this completed, the sleds were put in iroi-er position again, three jiii ireii seaieu iijciusei ve" on cacn, ana a gentle pusli started them down the s!ote. How swiftly they came! The slope was teep but smooth : not a rock, stump, or stone on. its surface: there was no danger, and the 5ds stopped on the sandy road. For two long hours this colony of children coasted till the ga-s was worn almost to the roots, and the supply of tallow (which is indispensable for this midsummer coasting) was exhausted. After all the little ones were weary, we older iieople joined in the fun. I own to have maae the descent but once, that was - quite enough for me. I never Wfore had heard of this novel amusement; but, startling as it seemed at rirst, the novcl'y soon wore away, and I be came quite accustomed to the sight and pounds of coasting in midsummer. LITTLE FOLKS. From a lovs composition on liens; "I cut my Uncle William's hen's head oil with the hatchet, and it scared her to death." Little three-vear-old. tired of stavinir in the house, tisked her mamma,, whether the sun would "ever blossom out again." 'Tommy.'" iaid a mother to a little bov. 'your uncle will be here to-day, and you must have your iao Mashed. '-ies. ma but s'posin lie don't come, what then?"'

"Twins, immediately replied the little girl. Little Ikss. to gentleman caller: "You ain't bbtk. are v.u, Mr. M ?' "Clack. h:';d? why, no, I sh-.ald hope not. What made you think I was." "Oh, nothin" 'ceit pa said you was awful niggardly." St. Nicholas savs: Never shoot at harm less and worthless birds "just to try your hand." Most small birds are pretty, some -oi ihem sing j-wcctJy, and nearly all of them are useful as in-ect de-trovers. It is brutal to kill them for any other than scientific or artistic purpo-es. little Mabel a-ked her father onedavto taste a mo'-t lelieiou- apple. What remained was nuiuiiv insjH.cted a moment when shf asked. ":o yf.u know. i ara. how I can tel you are l-iz without bxjkin at von?" "I can not say." wa the reply. "I can tell by the bite vou took o'.it of my apple, was the frushins answer. One of our brilliant collejre youths was heard lately complaining, in the presence of tne tamily. about liov difficult he found it to behave when in sxx iety, with as much ase and gracefulness as he could wish. "Why."' he said at last, with a look of the utmost Wif-hurniliation on his face, "if you'll believe me. I get so at times that I don t Know what to do with my hands." Then the yonnirest memberof the family, who cared little fur society and less for Iiis hier., brought down the house by remark ing. heart lessh-. "Why don't you wah fiicmr Voiillifnl Sages.

Terloy Poore.) About the time the bill organizing the Flectoral Commission was as,sed. Mr. Zach Chandler colled a meeting of tho Itepublican National Committee in his library, and invited a large number of leading Ohio politicians, who were supiosed to be Gov. Hayes' JK-rsonal representatives, to be present. After some ordinary business Mr. Chandler aston ished everybody by offering his resignation as chairman of the committee, stating as his reason that it bad become very apparent to liim that he was not eniovin? the confidenc e of tlie President-elect, and he presumed Gov. Hayes would prefer to have some other person in whom he had full confidence to manage his interests before the Electoral Com mission. The consternation which was caused by this unexiected announcement is hard to de scribe. Governor Hayes friends, figuratively speaking, got down on their knees and be sought him to reconsider his determination. but Chandler was inflexible. They ottered hini all that could be ottered in Haves' name ' )sition, patronage, anything he could ask if he would only continue to manage the campaign, finally ir. c Handler said lie would withdraw Ins resignation it certain conditions were complied with and the assu rance was given readily. They were easy conditions and involved no sacrifice upon the part of President Hayes or his mends, l hey were honorable, legitimate in every sense, and should have been voluntary on the part .1 .VI 111 .1 Ol lue unio men. neu tnese conumons were guaranteed Mr. Chandler withdrew his resignation and went to work. Their fulfill ment was to have been immediate, but months nas-ed. Haves was inaugurated, Mr. Chandler bowed out of the Cabinet, his servi ces ignored, his counsels rejected, ana to the day of Iiis death those assurances were never carried out. Their fulfillment was never even begun. Chandler felt this very keenly, and did not hesitate to denounce openly the men whose broken promises were the most regretful remembranres of his long career. From the time that he was relieved of his duties at the Interior Department by Secretary Schurz until the 12th of November. l7s. Secretary Chandler did not enter the White House. It was a period of eighteen months, and he was in Washington repeatedly during that time, but he did not call upon the lresidcnt, nor hold any communication with him. He would recommend no one for office, ami would say to people who sought his influence: "The President would not notice my wish if I should utter one. I have no influence with this administration." On the 12th of November. 178, a newspaper correspondent who knew Mr. Chandler well was tuite astonished to see him coming out of the White House grounds, and expressed some surprise. He replied: "Come over to my house and I'll tell you something." They went to his library, which was the front room of the basement in hi? house on II street, where he drew a chair up to the fire, and, looking at the corresjiondcnt in "a peculiarly earnest way, he said: "You want to know, I suppose, what I was at up there at the White House. I'll tell you. I have been trying to stiften the President's backbone." He said it very slowly, and repeated: "You needn't publish it; I am only telling vou for your own guidance. I came down here to "Washington (I'm sick, and wasn't fit to come) to stiften the President's backbone." "Did vou succeed'.'" asked the correspondent. "Never you mind; you wait awhile, my son, and then you go up and interview Hayes. You ask if he'don't think his Southern policy is alout played out. and if he don't think hanging rebels "is better than giving them office. I'emember. now." continued Mr. Chandler, "you're not to print anything about what I say; but I want to you keep posted, and before many days you'll hear something drop. Hayes is a square man." "When did you find that out? ' asked the correspondent. 4,I found it out to-day. I heard that Hayes was sick ot ins sentimentali.sin, and I came down here to give hin a tonic. I didn't come for nothing, and now, my son. you mark these words: IV; fore Hayes gets through with the Presidency he will be a blacker Pepublican than I am.' Sure enough, two days after that conversation there" appeared" an interview with President Hayes, in which he announced what was practically a change of policy toward the South. This was the work of District Attorney Leonard, of Ixniisiana, who was here receiving instructions as to the White league prosecutions in the State. As suggested. I. the correspondent, went to see the lresident, and he expressed a very decided determination to prosecute the perpetrators of the outrage in the South, and indicated a very different line of policy toward that section than he had followed in the past. This was the beginning of the restoiation of harmony between the President and his party. Grant's First Fight. I History of Clement County, Ohio. When Grant was very young he attended school with his cousin John, a Canadian, who had Ix-en sent over to the United States to be educated. The two boys were warm friends, but John had inherited predjud ices against our country which at times he could not restrain, and his language often gave o flense to young Grant. One day they were talking about George Washington, when John said: "It appears to me, Ulysses, you think a great deal too much of Washington." "And why shouldn't I think well of him?" replied the tanner boy. "He is the father of my country, and was raised ui by the Almighty to lead the people to independence. "All very fine." retorted John, "bathe was a traitor to his King, nevertheless. "A what?" asked Ulysses, raising to his feet. "A traitor and a rebel," said the Canadian. "John," calmly replied Ulys-es, "how should you like to have your sovereign called such names?' "Why, of course, I should not like it," replied John. "Then," said young Grant, "let me tell you I will not allow 3-011 or anyone else to insult the memory of George Washington." "Well, what are you going to do about it?" said John, with a sneer. "I shall resent It as I have a right tp do. You may take advantage of me, for you are older and bigger thaii I am. My mother toM me not to quarrel with school-mates, and I mean to mind her, and not attack them on my own account, but when Washington is" assailed, and esriecially by an English boy, I shall defend the father of my country. Cousin or no cousin, John, you liave got to take that back or tight." John would not retract, and so, taking oil their coats, at it they went. ' , John was the stronger and forced Ulysses down, but young Grant hung on, and finally turning John, hit him a blow on the nose which completely blinded him. After a hard tight, John finally had to cry out. "Fnough! Jhit Grant would not let him up until he bad not only retracted bis offensive language, but promised never again while on American soil to sjcak ill of George Washington. This was Grant's first battle for his country and it was indii ative of bis future illustrious carter as a man and a soldier.

FASHION AS IT FLIES.

.Summer Shoes Economy in Dreas A Sadi Season. Low shoes ar? more worn out-of-doors than they have b.en in any previous summer. Patent leather Ls much used for these low walking shoes, notwithstanding that it cracks easily and draws unpleasantly ou the feet. Sometimes only the toes or vamps are of the glossy patent leather, waile the uppers are of kid. The toes are medium roun 1, and the shoe laces on thehvtcp; the heels may be in the low common-sense shape, or else medium high; the soles are as thick as those of summer boots. For the house the sailo tie or slipjer tie, as many ladies call it U made of patent leather or of French kid, or else of both together; this is a very low sho with the tongue passed under flaps from the sides, that are tied together through merely two eyelet-holes. They are usually-lined throughout with black kid. or else with dark blue or red, instead of the white kid lining which is so soon stained by colored stockings. Slippers of bronze kid are in great favor for dress, and have gilt beading on the toes, with sometimes a ribbon tied over the instep, or else attached to the back, and com ing forward. Black French kid slipiers have jet beads &et on in diamond-shaped decora tions on the toes. The Louis Ouinze heel, high and set far under the sole, is .entirely out of fashion. Buttoned boots for walking shoes remain in favor, made entirely of French kid, or with cloth tops and kid foxing; still others have natent leather tins. The English walking shoes, with broad soles and low broad heels, either laeed in front or buttoned on the side, are commended for ser vice, and to those who have tender feet. Iawn-tcnnis shoes of canvas, with rubber soles, are shown in low shapes, and also in high boots laced in front; old-fashioned pru nella, either DiacK or tan, witn goat-skin toxing. is also used for tennis shoes. It is a mistake to suppose that the WOMEN WHO SPEND MOST on dress are those who think most of it. The human lilies "who toil not," and who need only wish in order to have, leave the burden of planning as well as execution to their dressmaker: it is the woman who must maintain a decent appearance on a small allowance, and bv taste and ingenuity make one dollar do the work of live, who gives her whole mind to the subject. She it is who studies the shirrs and pleatings of her neighbor's costume from Worth over the edge of her prayer book, while apparently absorbed in her prayers, and lies awake in the small hours contriving how to make over her old siik. so that it shall pass muster among the stylish new toilets of her wealthier friends. Fortunately taste and ingenuity can do a great deal, but even they must have some material wherewith to work. The worn in who dresses, not handsomely, that is impossible, but well on a small allowance, must be a genius in her way. She must make her own dresses with, at most, the occasional aid of a dressmaker at S2 a day; must do her own embroideries, trim her own bonnets, have an artist's eye for color, and a Frenchwoman's knack at picturesque combinations; in short she must !e abie to make the most of all she has, however little it may be. In the first place every purchase, no matter how trifling, must be made with reference to future as to the pres?nt use. Her best dress for this winter, for instance, must be such that it will make over advantageously next year for second be3t, and the year after do for afternoon wear at home. Conspicuous colors, however tempting, unless indeed they be wonderfully becoming, must be avoided if she would nöt be known by her dress. Black and neutral shades are her safest choice, and the material should be as good as she can possibly afford. "The destruction of the poor is his poverLy," and there is such a thing as being too poor to be economical, paradoxical as the statement may seem ; that is, one may be forced to buy an inferior article for lack of the inoney necessary to purchase a good one. Still It is far better to have but one suit a season and have that handsome than to buy half a dozen cheap suits with the same money, unless, indeed, in summer, when a variety of light and airy toilets are to be preferred to one rich dress. Ileal lace is an investment, and with care will last a lifetime. Take a real Spanish fichu for examine: with a little ingenuity it is a scarf, a mantle for outdoor wear, a fichu for evening dress, or. arranged over a snk bon net with a sprav of flowers, an elegant even ing bonnet. Handsome lace never goes out of fashion, and when worn can always be renovatep. The New York Post says this is ASSUREDLY A 8AS1I SEASON, and nobody is considered either too young or too old to be thus draped, bashes are made of every sort of fabric, from velvet to Hornau strijed zephyr, and are worn around the waist, and knotted a la lurk; also draped over one shoulder and held with a jeweled clasp a la Grecque; or lloat in bows and ends from the back a la bebe. Sashes, both wide and narrow, are equally in fashion, and mat inees are bcautihed bv medium-wide ribbon sashes, which begin at the arm seam just below the belt, are brought around and tied low on the front in several loops and ends which reach the foot of the skirt. A piece of the same ribbon i shixred at the throat and again at the waist, the ends being eov ered iust here bv sash nortions. Pure white surah, simply hemmed, is used for sashes over handsonie dresses of French muslin. em broidered batiste, veiling, or white silk can vas. White velvet sashes, with knots of velvet riblon to match, arc effectively used upon the most delicate of diaphanous dancing toilets, and prove very becoming. I'ichlv decorated satin sashes are exceedingly "rech erche," and expensive; and for bndemaids' wear are shown sash, fan, bebe bonnet, san dais, mouchoir touch, and parasol en suite an exquisitely hand painted. some Df ji,e satin or moire sashes are also wide and long upon dresses for the promenade that they take the place entirely of any other drapery in the back. Ladies who found it becoming. to wear a good deal of white at the throat will be glad to hear that the broad, white India muslin ties, lace edged, carried around the neck, and disposed in a wide butterMy-low, a la Bernhardt, are ouce riore correctly worn, though tied in less voluminous fashion thsn the scarf arrangement worn about the throat of that colebrated actress when here. These ties make dainty and dressy finish to a sum mer toilet, and silky india muslin is the most used lor the purpose. The lace which edges the ends should be wide and very fine, al enciennes being first choice. Deep, colfcecoloreu lace is fashionably worn as a garni ture to these white ties, and, though often becoming, the combination is not good. A WHISKY MAN INTERVIEWED.

Lucky Baldwiu'it Luck. Denver Tribune. ''Times had got a little dull and stocks were low, and so Baldwin, who was always study ing up some wild scheme or other to make money, concluded to go to China on some racket, and as be happened to have 1.OJ0 shares of I rown l'oint, which had cost him a share, he was mighty anxious to realize on them. The price being off several points ho raised the wind some other way, and, feeling that the time would come when he could get even on his stock, he left it with a 1 friend or Ins to sell when the price rose to cJ a share, and oil" he went to China. Soon after his departure the Comstock got into bonanza and prices began to rly up. Baldwin's friend who. by the way, was a carpenter also watched the market closely, and when his limit was readied be rushed down to a broker and told him to sell 1,000 shares of Crown l'oint at $si. 'Where's your stock?' asked the broker. 'Here it is," said the carenter. The broker examined it and then said: 'Have you power of attorney to sijn i'aldwm s name. ot a power,' replied the carpenter. 'Well, then.' said the broker, 'I cant sell this stock, nor will any one else.' lou see, Baldwin, in accordance with his customary carelessness, or rather ignorance of business methods, had gone oft without transferring or indorsing the stock male out in bis name. Of course, his business trip to China was a failure, as were all his deliber ately planned enterprises, and he arrived 1:1 rrancisco strapped, but soon found that, instead of Laving $3,000 waiting for him, it had reached an CYca million of dollars." "No wonder they called him Lucky Baldwin," said a Chicago tenderfoot. Hold a moment, pardnr.r," remarked the old California!!, "nobody thought of giving liim that name then for a little lucky turn like that. Wait until I get a little further along with my story and you will see a bet ter reason tor the name. "Is there more coming? Great Scott! Wasn't one million enough 011 such a scratch?" "We didn't give names those days in California unless men earned them vou can bet your bottom dollar on that. Bah) win cashed in bis stock, and a be was considered rather fresh the boys put up a job to divide the million among the gang. Jim Keene was Baldwin's broker, and he and the rest concluded that they would saddle a big block of Ophir on Baldwin at from $10 to $13 per share, which they proceeded to do, thus tupping hini for more than half his pile. No sooner had Baldwin got this bundle of Ophir into his possession than the big bonanza was struck in consolidated Virginia and California, adjoining the Ophir, and that stock doubled up in sympathy." 44 'Bah for Baldwin,'' cried the Chicago tenderfoot. "Keep cool, pard; that was only ordinary luck." growled the old Californian. "Thunder and Mars, another million and you say only ordinary luck!" "That's what I said". Ophir kept right on doubling up so fast that the ganij wanted to get Baldwin's stock, and so they put up another job on him. You see, the Bank of California held most of the balance of Ophir stock and so Balston sent for Keene and 'sized him up' to vote Baldwin's stock at the annual election so that the bank would have c ontrol of the mine. Keene, being still agent for Baldwin, pocketed his plum and stood i:i with the bank outfit and went square back on Baldwin. Lord, but wasn't Baldwin mad. The stock kept going up and Baldwin, knowing that the old assessment dodge would he played on him, shoved his stock on the market, just exactly as the conspirators exjected and wished he would, until he hadn't a share left, obtaining the highest prices, which were from sv. to $-0 per share. No sooner had he unloaded on the gang than the stock began to tumble as rapidly as it had risen, and it busted the Bank of California; but Baldwin had over SlO.OfrfMMJ to his credit, and the name 'Lucky Baldwin' was duly earned and accredited to him." "Holy smoke, $10.000,000 did you say?" broke in the Chicago tenderfoot. That's about the size of it, and Vbu see there was not a bit of sense or smartness from beginning to end so far as 'Lucky' was concerned. He blundered onto the first million, was tramed into a bad investment. and was angered into selling out ii the hick of tune, and so lutv. stuf-l'i hief 'ck, made him the straw which broke the back of the great institution known as the Bank of California, and transferred its gold into hi? own private iocket." " hat became of Lucky Baldwin?" "Oh, he built a big hotel, got a . big farm. and plastered his money a round without any business judgment, but he had such a stack of gold that lie couldn't fool it all away, and probably he has an odd million or two left yet. No, boys, I don't pretend to say that luck is a chief factor in mining, but I'd rather have a heap of luck than a heap of sense without Iuck.". Nnpporting the Paper. Decatur (111.) Review. An oft related remark is that the liepublican papers of the country receive a better supiort than the Democratic ones, and that Bepublieans, as a class, are greater readers, than Democrats. There is a degree of truth in it that is not generally understood and accounted for. As a rule, upon exactly equal terms, there is no reason why a Democratic editor or publisher may not work up as profitable a business as a liepublican. The matter of official patronage cuts some figure, but not as much as is often estimated. Very often to secure it, the publisher must pander to politic al interests that hanijer ordinary business enterprises. Very often the official organ must remain silent when every honest and manly purpose demands that it should speak out. Here is nothing this free people like so lnr.vli as truth and candor. Then again, since the excitements of the war have passed away, business men, who in the North are largely llepublican, have pretty generally learned that advertising is purely a matter of business. It is done to let the public know what they are doing, what they wish to bu3' " or what they want to sell, and not merely to help this or that newspaper man to a living. They have learned that Democratic dollars and llepublican dollars are alike desirable. In a county like this, with a opulatioii of 3.,0', there are not to exceed 1,'2) republicans. To reach the Democrats, business men have about learned where to advertise, and so have they c vcrv where. But what has told most against the. Democratic press of the country, and in favor of the llepublican press, is the agency of the General Government. It is not generally known that at almost every postollice in the country the Government has one or more olficials that are agents, directly or indirectly, for I'epublican papers. There is hardly a country 1'ostoHice in which there are not displayed advertisements of llepublican papers, and there is a marked absence of those of Democratic ones. The men who have managed and controlled the l'ostoflices for the past twenty-four years have not been interested ir. the success of Democratic papers. Their interests have been in the other direction. If a farmer conies in and expresses a desire, or probably he is asked, to subscribe for a city paper, the Tostmaster can get such and such an one for hini. usually a llepublican or.e, or with Republican leanings, but he never has the blanks, conveniences or desire to get a Democratic paper for liim. So it is with men w ho are undecided in every locality. They are thus led to read llepublican literature and are finally made good, steadfast Republicans. Here we have had an agency for the support of the llepublican.

press that baa boen almost irresistible. The

4iovernineot may not have sanctioned it, but it has grown into a common custom. The Democratic press of the country naturally seek a change. Having won a victory. they . with good reason demand the removal of llepublican Postmasters, who, a.s a class, have busied themselves to interfere with their business. They demand the appointment of men who will not retaliate, but men who will give them a fair chance in their struggle for business. What portion of dry goods merchants, grocerymen or men in any ordinary line of business would succeed if "they hail at every Bostoflice, on every postal car, a paid Government agent in the interest of their competitors? There are no other classes of business meu who would succeed any better than Democratic newspaper men with such agencies against them. J.1113 agency business Is a phase of offensive partisanship that ordinary men do not consider. The United States mails and their agents should be free from any taint of interfering with any class of business. FRACTIONAL COIN. Measures Taken to Secure It Better Dis tribution. Nkw Yokk.

The eirenlar issued br the committee of the t'leariuzdlouse Association and addressed to the banks in all the principal cities of the country, requesting their aid in disuursmjr, as lar as tney are able, tne fractional silver coin now lvinsr in the Treasury, and thus enabling the New York banks to relieve the Gov ernment of its fears about a scarcity of gold, has neen responded to iroin nearly every Mate m the I'uion.

For their in formation 1 nited states Treasurer Jordan to-day caused this circular to be printed: "The Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New York will receive deposits for fractional silver coin, and will forward the coin himself, if the place oi its destination is near to his otlice, or he will forward his certificate issued for the deposit to the sub-Treasury nearest to the destination of the coin for shipment, free of excuse to the consignees. This regulation applies when the sums are $-eo and over.'' Many instances have occurred where Western and Southern banks have sent checks for fractional silver direct to Manager Camp of the clearing house. In every cae the checks have been turned over to the "sub-Treasurer to acton. To avoid further misunderstanding on this point, the elearintr house to-day issued this: '-The clearinir house does not distribute fractional silver. The drafts should lie sent direct to the Assistant Treasurer of this city."
