FOR THE FAIR SEX. Cheap Dresses. The problem is not to dress upon wothing; but given a small allowance, how to util ze it to the best advantage. Thus, su; posing that n girl has but ten dollars to spend upon her summer out fit, her wisest plan would be not to buy five dresses and a hat as she does inone of our exchanges, but to get a smaller number and have them better. Let us see then what she may do with ter funds in hend, doing her own dre s making, as a matter of course, There rre very few women who are so improvident as to have nothing left over from season to season. A practi- coal economist buys every dress with a view to its appearance afterward in a pew form, and it is unwise for any but a wealthy woman to pur chase an expensive dress cannot be made over. And in this sense the word expensive must be taken comparatively. For our girl it would mean a su nmer silk, a cash mere, ora French bunting. One of these, then, she has on hand from last year, and this is to be made as good as new, The dress must be ripped and pressed, hartshorn has the prepertion of a teaspoonful of ammonia to a quart of water.

This may be made with the baoy waist—i. ¢., with yoke and plaits ~—if the wearer is slender, or a coat basque, if stout, and the trimmings are to be ruflles edged with Hamburg, which is very narrow—merely a tiny scallop and eyewt, but which looks very well. Or, if she prefersa lawn to a ging- ham, that may be had at the same price snd trimmed with Italian lace at fitecn otnts, the price of two yards. Three doiiars must puy another dress, Yictoria lawn, at twenty cents, trimme, with tucked rufiles of the same, flutedd is very pretty. Dotted Swiss, made with ruflles also, is much more dressy, and costs five cents more a yard, but since white mus.in can be worn always in the evening, this iast will be prob. ably her wisest choice. Her hat may be a Fayal, lined and trimmed with white muslin, and a twenty-five cent bouquet, a rough straw. at thirty-three cents, with a band and large bow of satin 1ib- bon, or an embroidered reed hat, at twenty-five cents, with brim: faced with bright foulard and a searf ot the same twisted around the ccowp, either of which will come within the compass 0 the eighty-seven cents left from her dresses. Very pretty and indeed handsome overdresses for wear with satin or vel- vet skirts are made of the cream-tinted linen canvas which comes for curtains. This is woven in small, square meshes of twisted thread, is forty-eight inches wide and sells for twenty-five cents a yard. Five yards are enough for a full overdress snd creamy Languedoc lace at £3 for a piece of ten yards is the trim- ming. An embroidered vile done in crewels or silk adeis much to the beauty of the garment, which, indeed, is hand- some enough for wear in a iashionable balhoom. Cream-tinted buntings and bareges are other inexpensive over- dresses for wear with sueh anderskirts. As fashions go this summer so they will probably be this winter. A black vel- vet skirt is among the most useful gar. ments which a lady can possess, since it may be worn the year round and is styl- ish with almost any overdress. The velvet used for the handsomest skirts costs five dollars a yard, but very geod quality may be had for £3.50. Such velvets are all silk. Triming velvet, silk-fazed and cotton-backed, is the next choice, while iadies who must consult velveteen at £1.50, Walking skirts are very narrow, two yards and a quarter being tle average width, while ladies who are below medium height wear them even narrower. The quantity of velvet required depends upon the style of overdress. A surtout with open seams calls for an all velvet skirt, while a long, round overskirt, draped by shir- ring, may be worn with a skirt merely faced tothe knee. ‘Such underskirts are frequently made plain, but a favorite trimming for them is a box-plaitingtwo inches wide, set in not on. the skirt at she lower edge. Satin skirts are also much worn, and are trimmed in the same manner. Corduroy skirts are for wear only in cool weather. Thin, loosely- woven flannels, flannel- finished beiges, as they ure called, make cheap and useful suits for seaside and mountain wear. Such as one mayb made with a short, round skirt, with a six-inch box-plaiting at the foot and two scantily box-pldited rufiles Liaif as wide above it on the front breadths. The bodice i: a round waist in front, with a wide belt, and has a coat basque at the back, on to which two full, straight breadihs are joined by a wide cluster of shirring, hanging plainly in full folds at the back to form the drapery. These breadihs must be lined with thin foulard, besides which the suit is trimmed only with machine. stitching in several straight rows. Such and ten yards are a great plenty for the suit. They are soft and fine-looking and the dress is a pleasant one to wear on damp cool days. * If I could have but one dress,” once said a practical economist, who went silk, with a calico wrapper for morn- ing.” A long. half-fitting sack, with a round skirt trimmed with Spanish dress than the wrapper, since it can be worn in the country all day long, while a wrapper is suitable only for morning. White and black calico—that is to say, a white ground, with a tiny black figure is excellent for such dresses. It and always looks neat. After the dress for a dressing sack, and an apron or two may be made from the skirt. i may do much with small eapital. ‘en ya 3 of white sewing silk feather fringe, such ag is sold in the shops for a dollar a yard, was once made at home for $1 50, the only expense being the silk of which it was composed, and being male on the garment, was accordingly handsomer than if pought and sewed on. Ginghams and pongee sunshades are fashionable, and these, too, may be made at home at small cost if one has an old frame to cover, as most people have. Rip the oid cover off carefully and cut out the new exactly by it, taking care that the threads run straight. Join the gores with a French fell, taking pest pains to have your tensions just right, and fasten “on strongly to the frame through the holes made for the purpose. Silk um- las may be covered in the same man- per; it is only a question of great pains- taking not to streteh the cover. Lovely gants Ce Snede have been wade at home from chamois skin, using an old glove ripped apart for pattern, and numberless such economies m: y be and are practiced by Iadies who have leisure and ingenuity.

IN 35 Revival of Suicide. It has been remarked that revival of suicide has occurred during the last hundred years. Its rate, calcu- lated as an average on the entire popu- lation ot Europe, without distinction of nationality or local variations, seems to have more than quintupied since the middle of last century. Exact returns are not obtainable from every country, but the information is sufli- ciently complete to enable usto perceive that Europeans are now killing them- selves al an annual average rate of one in 5,000; and, that consequently, a total of somewhere about 60,000 persons are dying by their own hand each year on the continent and in the British isles. One-fourth of them, in round figures, are mad, the rest aot know- ingly, with a view to some presumed advantage. And it must not be forgot- ten that the numbers are constantly and regularly increasing, and also that they include only the suicides which are officially known and those which suc- ceed ; neither those which are concealed by families nor the unsuccessful at. tempts are counted anywhere. Conse- quently, if we wish to correctly value the force of the present distinctly marked reavakening of the suicidal tendency, we must add a good deal for undetected cases and for failures. Ineffectual ven- tures especially would seem, from private information, to be considerably more abundant than is commonly im- agined. It would probably be quite Lilt gy ol a signal pended elements increase the European annual total by one-half, so carry- ing it to shout 90,000. The rates vary, however, very largely in different countries, with local conditions, with race, with latitude, with education The figures are immensely higher, as a general rule, in the North (excepting only Russia) than in the South, and in towns than in the country. Itis not easy to collect absolutely reliable re- turns from each separate land; but if we may trust M. Maurice Block, who is Danes kill themselves the most, and the Portuguese the least, the differenze be- scarcely creditable proportion of thirty- five to one.

GENERAL GARFIELD'S LETIER OF ACCEPTANCE, a A | hig home at { Hoar, of Massachusetts, the following | letter of acceptance of the nomination | tendered him by the Republican National | convention: Mentor, QO, July 13 Dear Sin: On the evening of the {eighth of June last 1 had the honor to receive from you in the presence of the committee of which you were chair. man, the official announcement that the { Republican national convention at Chi. | cago had that day nomine ted me ss thelr | candidate for President ot the United | States. 1 accept the nomination with gratitude for the confidence it implies, fand with a deep sense of the responsi | bilities it imposes, 1 cordially indorse [the principles set forth in the platiorm | adopted by the convention.

They insist that the Unite States is a nation with ample power ol self-preservation; that its Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereol are the supreme law of the land; that the right of the nation to determine the method by which iis own legisiature shall be created cannot be surrendered without abdicating one of the funda mental powers of government; that the national laws relating to the election ol representatives in Congress shall neither be violated nor evaded; that every hall be permitted freely and without intimidation to cast his lawl ballot at such election and have it honestly counted, and that the potency of his vote shall not be { €ieclor 8 in destroyed by the fraudulent vote of any other person The best thoughts and energies of our people should be directed to those great questions of national well-being in which all have a common interest Such efforts will to those who were ately In arms against for justice nd passion.

Its inter ests are intrusted to the States and to the voluntary action of the people. Whatever help the nation can justly at- ford should be gt nerously given to aid the States in supporting common gchouls; but it wouid be unjust to our people and dangerous to our institu. tions to apply any portion of the rev- enues of the nation, or of the States, to the support of sectarian schools. Tue separation of the Church and the State in everything relating to taxation should be absolute. THE NATIONAL FINANUES On the subject of national finances, my views have btesn su frequently and fully expressed that little is needed in the way ot additional statement. The public debt is now so well secured and the rate of annual interest has been so reduced by refunding, that rigid econ. omy in expenditures and the faithful application of our surpius revenues to the payment of the principal of the debt will gradually but certainly free the peovle from its burdens, and close with honor the financial chapter of the war. At the same time the government can provide for all its ordinary expenditures, and dis charge its sacred obligations to the soldiers of the Union, and to the widows and orphans of those who fell in its de fense. The resumption of specie pay- ments, which the Republican party so courageously and successfully accom- plished, has removed from the field of controversy many questions that long and seriously disturbed the credit of the government and the business of the country. Our paper currency is now as national as the flag, and resumption has not only wade it everywhere equal to coin, but has brought into use our store of gold and silver. The circulatirg medium is more abundant than ever be- fore, and we need only to maintain the inbor and capital a measure of value from the use of which no one can suffer loss. The great prosperity which the country is now enjoying should not be ‘endangered by any violent changes or | doubtful financial experiments. THE TARIFF, In reference to our custom laws a policy should be pursued which will bring revenues to the treasury, and will enable the labor and capital employed in our great industries to compete fairly in tal of foreign producers, We legislate for the people of the United States, and not | for the whole world, and it is our glory thut the American laborer is more in- telligent and better paid than his toreign competitor. Our country cannot be in- dependent unless its people with their abundant natural resources possess the and cquip themselves for war, and in time of peace to produce all the neces. sary implements of labor. It was the | manifest intention of the founders of the government to provide for the common defense, not by standing armies alone, but by raising among the people a greater skillshould powerfully contribute to the safety and glory of the nation. INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT. Fortunately for the interssts of com- | merece, there is no longer any formidable opposition to appropriations for th « in | provement of our harbors and great navigable rivers, provided that the ex- | penditures for that purpose are strictly limited to works of national importance The Mississippi river, with i | tributaries, is of such vital importance tional consideration. In order to recure tothe nation the control of all its waters, President Jefferson negotiated the pur- | chase of a vast territory, extending from | the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific ocean. The wisdom of Congress should be in- voked to devise some plan by which that great river shall cease to hea { terror to those who dwell upon its | banks, and by which its shipping may | safely carry the industrial products of 25,000,000 of people. The interests of agriculture, which is the basis of all seven-twelfths of our popuia’ion are engaged, as well as the interests of manufactures and commerce, demand that the facilities for cheap transporta tion shall be increased by the use of all our great watercourses. CHINESE EMIGRATION. try, the traditions of its settlement and government to offer the widest hospi- tality to emigrants who seek our shores for new and happier homes, willing to share the burd :ns as well as the bene- fits of our society and intending that their posterity shall become an undis- | tinguishable part of our population. { The recent movement of the Chinese to | our Pacific coast partakes but little of the qualities of such an emigration either in its purposes or its resuit, welcomed without restriction; Wo much like an invasion to be looked upon without solieitude, We eannot cons ‘nt to allow any form of servile labor to be introduced among us under the guise ol emigration.

The young man awoke from ! is dream It made a great impression upon him. He interpreted it asa good omen for him, not on'y in business matters, but in his love affair. He departed for Oil Creek next day, and went first to the farm where his brother was working. One day the superintendent was showing his visiting brother over the Hyde & Egbert farm. Suddenly the later stopped and | looked about him with an exclaimation of surprise, “This is the very spot,” “that I saw in my dream.” He then related his dream to his brother. The spot was not considered a favorable one for striking oil, but the dream of the young man so impressed the superintendent that he determined to sink a well there. The result was awaited with intense interest by the two hrothers. The drill, at the depth of 600 feet, struck a literal river oi oil.

He gave £20,000 to the young man whose dream led to the discovery of the Coquette well. With this sum to start with, the fortunate dreamer in a few months made a handsome fortune. He returned to his native village.
