slr. Alexander R. Lawton of Georgia.
LA Sr la Uwton spoke as follows: “Mr.
Chapman and Gentlemen—l know not how
to respond to such an introduction. I know
not bow to decorate this toast in the man
ner that it would seem to be expected from
0 „e who has just been presented to you,
and after the luster of the American bar
when he has challenged, when he has made
his earnest protest, and made it
successfully, against the decree not
only of three score and ten, but of
the additional ten, that, by reason of
great strength, may sometimes be allowed
_w hen lie has been able to do all that, and
tell us with all the zeal and all the restless
ness and calm of youth itself—more than
the calm ofyouth, because the view of the
o iect in the future is so restless, so fierv,
so misleading, and so beautifully tempered
by the mild light of the retrospective.
[Applause.] There wo have all that, and
all the pleasure that it gives. We have, gen
tlemen, his discourse upon this question
rf the bar, and what it ought to be, and
injfew and pungent words and language
that ought to bo burned into the memories
of the Par present. He has told you in his
presidential address what the bar ought to
be, and what it was. Kumem. er the em
phasis with which he told you thero was a
time when members of the bar wished to
do these things which are now; there was
a time when they did those things which
requred courage to do aud which
we now do.l ;He has covered the ground,
and I would cheerfully leavo it where he put
it. But, since that duty has boon devolved
upon me by your kindness, permit me to say
that that service which the bar can render,
to which 1 have alluded, 1 do recognize in
my inmost heart. The great trouble of this
c untry at this time—the trouble which is
recognized, I believe, the world over, is the
great accumulation of enormous wealth in
the hands of a few who are creating
what may be called a moneyed
aristocracy of this country, and whose
power can be better restrained in this
country where there are no great aristoc
racies recognized by the organic law, by
the united action of a profession so
powerful as this is; by the united
action of a profession which will protest
not against the accumulation of wealth,
because under many circumstances it is
not only a right always, but sometimes a
loyal duty to accumulate by every honest
means, and the progression of wealth is
not only a duty, but a great privilege, for
which we are responsible to the community,
but it is to the falling down before the
golden image and looking to it as a power,
a principality, an institution which is to
take possession of all others. Tho bar, by
its cultivation— he bar, by its fulfillment of
duties to the community, by its
loyalty to higher thought, and to effect
ive speech, can do more to restrain
this power and keep it within the
limits where it ought to be than any
other body of men in the world; and to do
that, as well as many other reforms, we
must not only be honest ourselves, but wo
must be brave as well. We must give no
halting rebuke, which sometimes means
almost the acquiescence in wrong but
insist always upon the right, and that ‘is the
al ** l our profession, ihe responsibilities
w.uch rest upon the bar are greater than
they are willing to acknowledge, perhaps
or at first sight seem probable
in our meetings we are talking about the
delays of justice. We are talking about
the courts aud their inabilities to do what
is expected °f them. Upon whom does the

A*NEW POSTA IE STAMP.
Urging the Adoption of a Stamp That
Will Contain the Advertisement of
the Purchaser.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Postmaster General Wanainaker is con
sidering the practicability and advisability
of issuing anew style of postage stamp to
be known as “Business Postage,” which
will contain the business card of the pur
chaser. The originator of the idea and
designer of the stamp is E. J. Paxson, the
real estate ngent-nt i:ios Arch street. Last
Saturday ho sent a sample of his design to
the Postmaster General with an exhaus
tive explanation of ite merits and a strong
argument in favor of its adoption. The
Postmaster General has not yet been heard
from.
The design is simple but ingenious, and
the stamp will be only a little more than
double tho s zo of tho ordinary postage
stamp. Adjoining the vignette of the
ordinary starhp will boa space largo
enough on which to print in readable type
the name, business and address of the
user. “United States,” and boneath,
“Two 2 cants.” Over the vignette will be
the word And beneath, the
word “Postage.” The sample which Mr.
Pax,on sent to the Postmaster General is a
very neat blue print, photographed and re
duced from a. fneediand drawing. The
features of Georgo W. Childs adorn the
vignotto in the sample, and the smile of
approval is of itself sufficient to almost
make the Postmaster General adopt the idea
at ouce.
MR. PXXSON’S IDEA.
Mr. Paxsciu smiled when asked about his
“new postage stamp" last night, but it was
tne smile ofa man who knows when he has
a good thi g. “Yes, I have designed anew
stamp,” said he. “I sent a sample of the
design to Pastniarter General VVanam'akor
last Saturday. I have not heard fro u him
yet, but I know no reason why it should not
be adopted. If it is lam sure it will be in
groat demftud.
“The idea,” continued Mr. Paxson, “was
conceived more through curiosity than any
definite intention to establish anew style
of postage. A short time ago, out of mere
curiosity to see how it would work, I had
my business card printed ou about tiiirty
postage stamps. Three or four of them
passed through the mails ail right, but tho
rest were returned on the envelopes marked
for postage. I took the ground that the
stamps had not bean canceled by the print
ing, as only the government had a right to
cancel postage stamps. Neither were the
stamps mutilated by the printing. Tho
government, however, refuse 1 to pass the
printed stamps. Then l conceived this
idea.”
“Now there is no reason why such a
stamp should not be issued. It would not
interfere with the mail service in any way
and would be a source of revenue to the
government. If the government will issue
stamped envelopes with ‘lf not called for in
lOdays.return to,’ whatever name the sender
may write on it printed on the envelope I
can’t see why they shouldn’t issue stamps
with a man’s address printed on it.
WOULD NOT COST MUCH.
"The stamps themselves would uot cost
much more than the ordinary stamps
which would, of course, continue to be is
sued for the ordinary purchaser. They
would, of course, be printed by the govern
ment, and purchasers would order them by
the thousand, tho government printing tha
card or leaving it blank, as the purchaser
might desire; iq case of the government
printing the card, the purchaser to have tho
privilege of selecting the type. The gov
ernment oould sell them for 5l) cents a hun
dred, say, over the regular price, but
even at 3 cents apiece for the 2-cent stamps,
I think they would meet with more favor
than the stamped envelopes.
“Now, the advantages to the consumer
would be be manifold. We all know that
in largo business houses and corporations
there is very often a'large leakage in the
stamp drawer. This stamp would, to a
great extent, check that, as it would be so
hard to dispose of stamps bearing the ad
vertisement of the house from which they
were stolen that even should the thief taka
his chances on being caught up no one
would care to use another man’s business
mark on his envelopes. Now, don’t you
see what an immense item that would’ be
throughout the country, in which every
corporation and large business concern
would be naturally interested? Many con
cerns use thousands of stamps a week, and
taere is hardly a large house that don’t lose
hundreds of dollars’ worth of stamps year
ly. Not only would this boa benefit to the
business concerns, but to the great munici
pal departments, such as the water and gas
bureaus and tax department of this city.
It would necessarily stop petty thieving
from the stamp drawer.”
A MATTER OF CONVENIENCE.
“Asa matter of convenience alone, the
stamp would be worth the extra cost to the
consumer. It would do away with printed
envelopes directing where uncall -d for let
ters shall be returned. For instance, there
are thousands of traveling man who could
carry their firms’ stamps on the road with
them and thereby have their firms’s address
ou a plain' envelope by merely attaching
the postage stamps ”
Should the Postmaster General approve
of the idea Mr. Paxson intends to urge the
adoption ofa postaL with a similar
card space In the taft hand corner.
Although he has talCrnlTi a few busi
ness men about the. ‘:jgjj(jness postage,” Mr.
Paxson says that they have all expressed
an opinion that it i*sost&o tiring business
men have been needing, and that if ap
proved by the will be univer
sally adopted. When askph if ho intended
patenting or copyrighting the idea he was
not prepared to say that he would, but
thought that he would. In cases of this
kind, he explained* the government does
not pay a royalty, bgt buys the copyright
outright, paying a fair price for the value
of the invention,
Of course, Mr. Paxson explained, neither
George W, Childs nor any other purchaser
of the stamps would have his picture on the
vignette of the stamp, as only tho regular
stamp vignette could be used. The reason
why he selected tieoH2S$ T W. Childs for his
sample, as tie yesterday explained in a
letter to Mr. Childs, inclosing a sample,
was because he wanted to send a sample to
Washington bearing the familiar features
of a representative business man, especially
as they were fea' ures easily and clearly
broughtsbut on a small vignette, and as he
did not wish to have even the semblance of
counterfeiting the vignette of Washington
on the regular stamp.
Pretty Girls of New Orleans.
From (he Chicago Times.
On a first visit to New Orleans one is- im
pressed by the peculiar appearance of the
women. One can see in New Orleans moro
delicious looking young girls and more pre
maturely old looking women than in any
city in the country. The girls up to the
age of 18 cr 20 are lovely. Thev have rich
complexions, bright eyes, the mingiel
langour and vivacity that render the south
ern girl so fascinating. Then, too, in sum
mer time most of them wear white dresses,
with iace or open-work sleeves and yokes,
through which a creamy, satiny skin glints
with aggravating attractiveness. There is
but one word that fully describes them to
the masculine mind. They are driicious
looking. But they fade very quickly, and
this accounts for the number of old looking
women of 25 years or thereabouts one sees
on the streets or in their carriages.

Harrison’s Clammy Shako.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
President Harrison has rather a peculiar
shake. He reaches out for the hand, gra-ps
It rather tightly, gives it one quick down
ward jerk, and then a pull as if to pass the
person along, letting go as suddenly as he
grasped it. This he will do some ten or a
dozen times, and then as if to relieve the
monotony of the moveme >t he will take a
hand aud give it three or four quite vigor
ous shakes. He seems to have considerable
respect for age, and will rarely let an old
person go by without giving him at least
two shakes. If the person is talkative
the President says nothing, but
punctuates tho remarks with shakes, and
at the same time draws the individual along
as if to cut off his talk. If ho has any love
for children it is probably all centered in
the little McKee, as it didn’t 6ecm to par
ticularly please him when toddlers were
brought along yesterday. The President
would keep up his handshaking without any
apparent exertion, and when the crowd got
too fast did his hand-over-hand act, taking
them as rapidly as they c iuld come. His
1 a id has a cold, clammy feeling, and every
now and then he would mop off the per
spiration with his handkerchief. While re
placing the linen in his coattail pocket with
his left hand he would continue to gre?t the
curious visitors with his right.
