aharp coo test at tbe primaries I iuipeud
Ing, and It rests with Ihove who favor tbe
policies adopted by tbe Uovernor to work
effectively for bit renomluation and elec
tion. Ills opponents declare that In the
event of bis renomlnatloo be will lose
enough Republican votes to give the
election to the Democracy. On tbe other
hand, hi supporters contend thatbe will
gain an Independent Democratic vote
that will more than offset tbe Republl
llean defections, and that, should he be
denied a renomluation, the ticket will
lose enough Republican votes to make
the State Democratic The situation
seem much like that in 1832, wbeu tbe
machine, led by President Arthur, pre
vented tbe renominatlon of Gov. Cor
nell, who was undoubtedly the popular
choice, and by way that were dark. In
eluding ths forgery ot a telegram, forced
the .nomination of Secretary Folger, of
Arthur's cabinet. Tbe eonsequenoe was
tbe election of Q rover Cleveland as Gov
ernor and David B. 11111 a Lteutenaut
Governor, by majorities of nearly 3Uu,

be worth considering at tbe present time.

was elected. Shortly afterward The

Kill Alice Z. Oreiory.
Ambleside, England, Aug. 2. UM. I
Dear Cousin Your letter, with one
from Margaret Ulllerand another from
Louise Keefer. reached me as I was
breakfasting at Furness Abbey. It was
ralmog for the flrst time wheu I have
been traveling, but I boarded the tralu
Jast the same lleachiug Ltkesld about
ball an uoar later 1 decided, a It was
U'tl raining as hard, to wait for the sec
otrt Itoat, hoplnit the mist would clear
before my sail up Windermere. So, sit
ting tu tbe glass-protected waiting room
wltti prttty Windermere covered by
drifting fog, I persued my letters. Tbey
were oertaluly a eomtori and yours con
tained a compltmeut which, from a clrl
up, I have heard you pay to Miss
Browusoouibe, and often wished that 1
might be tbe possessor of the gilt. Suffice
It to say that those letters put me lu au
emotioual frame of mind, one just suited
to appreciate tbe treat In store for me.
Depositing my luggage lu tbe cabiu I
m muted tbe deck, for I was well cloak
e 1 aud moisture had uo terrors for me.
A heavy mist still fii.el tbe air, aud
lowering clouds yet bung upou the crags
au-1 paks which bordered either side of
tbe like, xhlcu at this point I little
wider thau a good sized river. The pros
pects looael promising, for here and
there through the veil of mist a little
blue sky would peep, only to be obscur
ed a moment later by tbe veering olouds.
Both banks were well wooded. All veg
etation is fresh and Inxariaut here, for
thev have much rain. Very little land
le cultivated for grain, the principal crop
ot r.agiaiid eanuol be matured and eur

eouame-1 because It seemed to stretch
out Into the water from tbe foot ot tbe
bill as it trylug to nab tbe vessel as she
r-cudded by. Ou tbe right a hotel could
be seeu upon me nuiside among tue

tory upon it jutted out la tbe lake. Just
here tbe clouds of mist partej above us.

paetlug along a few rods a turnstile I
reached. Oa oue side of the wall at this

the appreciation ot the family who bad
dedicated to tbe public forever Orrest

climbing.) Ou tbe other side of the wall
oa a similar tablet are these lines from
liable:
"Tbod who hast given me eyes to see
And love this sight so fair.
Give me a bean lo had out Thee,
And read Thee every whete!"
Tbe spot Is furnished with beuches, so
that one may- sit down aud view th
country rouud. The whole country is
spread out in panorama. Oi course the
chlel beauty is tbe Like, which curves
at the foot of tbe hills. lor one can see
tbe ten miles of its extent. To the north
east are the Laugdale Pikes ; to the
right of tbem Loughrigg. which ui
window faces ; to tbe left Crinkle Crags
and ConUton Old Man, the mountain
which towers above lovely Lake Conis

went down the bill and made my way to
the wharf, where I arrived just lu time
tor a boat to Ambleelde. Again my lot
fell in a uleasaut place. Am lodging
with a uiaideu lady who lives with her
two brothers wbo are artistic photogra

plates illustrating the new edition ol
llueklu a works.
We went to Couiston by coach on
day, and two of the New Jersey girls
aad myseit uired a boat ana a man to
row us to Brantwood. Here we passed
uti a walk to tbe right of whloh was a
rose garden wlthtbe Mowers just In tbeir
prime, lluskln was very fond ol roses,
so there were many rare siteciuiens, and
they were trained m-o-t beautifully, hut
then what otbe.e could you expect? The
irardeu on the other side was lull of
tlowere, but of ail varieties. We screwed
up a whole lot of nerve and presented
uur cards for admittance. Tbe maid re
turned, saying Mrs. Severu.was out, but
she was sure tbat the lady would allow
us to see the stuuy n sue were mere,
we might come in. Time and space will
not permit me to go iuto detail, but "ar

of tbe study overlook the lake and of

A method ot invisible writing which
is said to have been largely used by
prisoners tor secretly communicating
with tbeir friends has been discovered
by Professor Gross, of Germany. Take
a sheet ot common writing paper, mois
ten it well with clear water, acd lay it
ou a bard, smooth eurfaco.sucb as glass
or stone, etc. After removing carefully
nil uir bubbles from tbe sheet, place up
i,a it another dry sheet of equal eir-e
and write upon it your communication
witb a sharp pointed pencil. Then des
troy tbe paper upon wbicb tbe writing
bas been done, and allow tbe wet paper
lo dry gradually by exposure to the air.
Wbm dry not a trace ot the writing
will be visible. But on moistening the
sheet again with clear water aud hold
ing it against tbe light, tbo writing can
be read in a clear transparency. It
disappears again after drying in the
air, aod may bo reproduced by moisten
JioK repcavcuiy, nuuum iuu eneei too
too much bested, however, tbo writing
will disappear, never to reappear again.
