An Open Question,
A correspondent of the New York
Star having written to ask why It
that women, and especially young
women, almost invariably sit on the
door, instead of on a chair or a stool,
to take off and put on their shoes ami
stocking, the funuy man of that paper
answer* as follow's: “The query
one tliat cannot be answered without
tlie most comprehensive research ami
solemn tleliheraUou. Quite confiden
tially, we don’t know anything
about It.
In die first place, the statement it
self needs confirmation. We have no
means of knowing that women, “and
especially young women,” do, as a

the floor when engaged in tlie interest

true that they do? And, if it be really
true, what is the reason? Somebody
must tell us. We ourselves iiavn’t a
glimmer of information on the subject.
Seeking as an outsider, however,
and considering the matter from that
calm, dispassionate standpoint from
which only it is jmssible to reach a
conclusion, we should say that this
most remarkable habit, if it have
existence at ail, is as prevalent among
old as among youiig women. We do
not pretend to say tlm women do, in
Tact, get down upon the floor to pre

The Literary World gives a most
cruel review of a volume of poems as
follows: “The book has a cubic con
tent of 117 Inches; It contains608 pages,

Your telegram asking my views of
the pro|K>sition to return die Southern
flags rewired. When die proposition
first reached me I regarded it a* addi
tional evidence of restored concord
and fraternal sentiment. As such my
heart responded most warmly to tlie
movement, but as a portion of tlie
Northern press and people seek to
make it die occasion for renewed es
trangement ami bitterness, I would
prefer to have the flags where they'
arc. I speak as an individual and an
ex-soldier, not as a Governor, and
without consultation. But 1 believe
this will be found to be the sense and
sendmeut of the Southern people. We
are weary of strife and hate. We
want peace aud good will, and prefer
these to a return of even so cherished
relic*, if their return is to be made at
such a cost.”
Congressman Blount, of the Sixth
Georgia district,who is sometimes con
temptuously alluded to in the editorial
columns of the Macon Telegraph as
“Jimbluut,” is iu Washington, or was
there a few days ago. In an interview
with a New York Star reporter lie
said that he did not believe Senator
Colquitt would accept the position of
Secretary* of the Interior, even if tlie
President should offer It to him. Re
garding die alleged growth of protec
tion in tills State he said that the doc
trine was making no headway. A
number ol newspapers, lie continued,

Driven to desperation by his stej»-

young Wingard resolved to avenge

That the boy felt fully justified in

he gave himself up to the officers of

drunken ruffian and a habitual
wife beater, and ought to have been
killed on general principles, and die

better known as “Gatii,” is one or
these ribald writer* for the Northern
pres*, and die following paragraph,
widi reference to the South, Is fre-h
grist from his slander-raill:
There were no educated teachers in

down to teach were looked upon as
carpet-baggers. Everybody * ho goes
Into certain of these regions. If he
should be Jesus Christ, would be re

should have uo scrip uor staff.
It is safe to say that there is little
danger of Jesus Christ ever coining or
even sending anybody to the Soutit on

paciousness a- brought- the army of

bankrupt in character besides. But
tiiey all knew how to take advantage
of the condition of die Negro and of
the country during the reconstruction
era to make money.
There must be a gieat deal of Igno
rance and malice and moral depravity
in the North, judging by the amount
of rot about the South that is served
by such writers as “Gath” and con

The sub-committee on the peniten
tiary held a very important meeting
In the capital building, on Tuesday,
at which grave charges against ex-
Senator James M. Smith were prefer
red. It b charged that for several
Sundays the convicts on the Ogle
thorpe farm, operated by Smith, have
been worked through the entire Sab-
fa. A number of the committee
was sent to make a personal examina
tion into the charge*. If such charges
are found to be based on facts die law
should be rigidly enforced. Not only
should a forfeiture be declared, but

Royalty and die children hail a l»ig
time together in Hyde park on
Wednesday. At a children’* fete in
honor of Queen Victoria’s jubilee 30,-
000 little oue* were presented. A ca
ble dispatch says they were arrayed on
the great lawn aud made a pretty pie-
ture. Tlie Prince and Prince** of
Wales, and tlieir sens and daughters,
accompanied by a number of their
royal guests, veiled die park during
the fete. The children .it once freed
themselves from restraint, broke die
rope barter* and rushed pell uiell to
ward the visitors aud packed them
selves In solid groups around diem, ami
all etiquette vanishrd aud tlie princes
and princesses, wlio seemed delight

children witii perfect freedom and
pleasure. All *t once the children
begau to sing “God bless the Prinec
of Wales.” Tiiey sang hi every key
but their earnestness ami entiiusiaMii
made up for the lack of harmony.
Tlie visitor* then made their way to
tlie platform erected for tlieir accom
modation. The Queen soon arrived.
When It ivas aiitioiiuced that she Wa

selves in *u orderly manner along
both sides of tlie road over which her
majesty’s carriage posaed, aud moved
with It toward die staud, tlie asse

tiieui, which die children all sang
with grand effect. Tlie Queen reached
and ascended die platform while the
mu«ic was proceeding. At it* conclu
sion she presented a memorial cup t«
a little girl who had beeu selected to
represent all die children assembled.
When the Queen departed die whole
assemblage sang “Ride Brittannia.”
