By the way, talking ot earrings
ays a writer for the Jewelers'
Weekly, puts me in mind of an
Eastern legend 'which I heard a
idiort time ago about their origie.
When lh'.oar ran away to escape
the wrath of Abranvs wife, so tlie
story goes, Sarai vowed that if her
handmaid ever returned she would
caust her to be mutilated, thinking
thus to destroy her beauty and
prevent her causing any further
don estic infelicity. Time, how
ever, had the effect of so cooling
Sarai's wrath that when Hagar
came back and pleaded with tiei
she decided to forego her vengeaae.
aud restored her ex-handmaid tc
lavor. But an oath was not a
tiling to be trilled with, and a.
Sarai had solemnly vowed to multi
ate Ilagar, she w as in a quandary
to know how to do this 'without
ifjurino; her or marrying her fair
face. Finally she hit upon the
expedient of piercing a small hcle
lu each of Hagar's ears, and it is
saiM that A brain, to offset tin
pretty handmaid's punishment,
presented her with , two bimuiiui

united
Stat s Senate, celebrated his 7Stl
birthday last Saturday evening bv
a reception at his residence in this
city. The distinguished-gentleman
is a veteran in legislation,
having served nearly thirty two
consecutive years in Congress, and
that he has lost none of the ability
for which he lias been famous
for many years w as full' proven by
the able speech which he deliver
ed last Wednesday on the tariff.
Mr. Morrill has been a member of
the Senate continuously for 21
years, one month and ten days,
and no member of that distin
guished body enjoys the confidence
of the peopl" ami of his colleagues
to a trreater extent than he.
The Hous-j committee on invalid
pensions have amended the de
pendent pension bill entirely out
of its original shape. But it mat
ters little what they do with it in
committee, as the democrats of
the House have fully decided that
it'shi.ll not pass that body until
next session, and then tliey de
pend on Cleveland to veto it. As
the election will be over by that
time he will probablv not dis-
1 appoint them.
Another presidential candidate
is out of the field. Mr. Chauncey
Depew of New York lias stated
ooniiively that he is notacandi-
i. late, and th.at he does not want
the nomination, lie is for Blaine,
who he believes possesses ele
ments of strength not found in
any other candidate. That Mr.
Depew's belief is shared by the
masses of the republican party is a
question that does not admit of a.
uoubt.
Mr. Blaine's family physician in
this citv states that when Mr.
Blaine left here his health was
perfect. Senator Hale had a let
,cr from his brother w ho is travel
ing abroad now in which the latter
saitl he had just spent four or live,
days with the Blaine family in
ltaiy,and that Mr. Blaine was
looking splendidly and was in tins
iit'f of srtirits. ."till these facts
will not prevent the publication of
sensational stories to the effect that
Mr. Blaine is about to die from
some dread disease or other. It is
the tear of Blaiiio, although he is
in E-uropf. w hich originates these
stories. .His health s good enough
and unless pre.-eiit apjearances
are deceptive he v. ill be notiii:;--tiedfor
President by the Chicago
con veil tion.
The latest demand of the Soutli
ern democrats the nomination of
Gen. Firzhugh Lee of Virginia for
Vice-President, tiiis year
has created a regular panic' among
Cleveland's friends. They are
moving heaven and earth to con
vince the rioutheniers that it will
mean sure defeat to grant their
demand. So far they persist in
the dema iil, s tying that they are
expected to furnish lo3 of the
electoral votes and they are enti
tled to name part, of the ticket.
What the result will be is not ap
parent, but it is probable that tlie
Southerners will compromise and
take lavish promises of patronage
under the next administration, in
lieu of the nomination for Vice
President.
The Mills tariff bill will be taken
mo by the House to-morrow and is
likely to monopolize the attention
of the House, w ith the exception
of the time devoted to regular ap
propriation bills, for Ihe remain
der of the session. What its final
fate will beno man can tell at this
time, but judging from present ap-
pearances it will be defeated. It'
will have served a good turn after
all however, for the hundred or so
speeches that will be made over it,,
will furnish the voters of the
country much valuable information
on the tariff question.
The abject surrender made by a
majority of the democratic mem
bers of the House to the filibust
ering minority in the caucus last
Wednesday night, has been the
source of much an u ement among
the republicans. The bill to refund
the direct tax to the several states,
which caused the ten days dead
lock, goes over until next Decem
