The Delineator's First Illus trations Pictured Women Who Wore Hoop Skirts and Paisley Shawls It was to illustrate tbe fashions of forty years ago that The Dkmnk.a tor was started. We may turn the yellowed pages of musty old maga zines and find pictured there the women for whom these first Dei.in rators were made. The promenade of the day was aloug Broadway above Canal Street. Here ultra-fashionable feminini y' walked with the mincing gait that was styled the'Grecian hend." They wore green gloves, and carried groen nun-shales, "Mettornioh greeny be 3iuse the Princess Metternicb had ap poured at a ball at the Tuileries in a dress of this hue. Little girls io ea- brielle dresses and white Marseilles sun-hats went by with their nurses. And among them the little girls who had come from the country were still wearing pantalettes. Matrons wore bonnets tied beneath their chins aud modestly folded their shawls about them. Black lace shawls they had for iSummer, snd Paisley and Cashmere shavls for cooler weather. They paid for these all tbe way from fifty dollars to several hundred or a thousand. An imported point luce shawl was even quoted at f 3,000. Oh, feminine finery could be ex pensive in those days as now! It is interesting to note the items which au old Dklineator gives as ihe co-;t of a girl of the period: Hoots, 110, stovkings, $2; garters, 60 cents; bilk underwear, $20; satin cortet, f20; cwr -et oover, $12; chemise, 120 ; cumbric and steel hoops, $20; putf ! hairoloth pannier, ii; tl innel uuderskirt, $10; cambric underskirt, 18; w'alkiug .kirt next to hoop, $8; over wulkiug skirt, $10; gloves, f2.25; sun and suow shade in laoe, (125; velvet walking suit, lace and sable trimmed (1,000; bat, (75; total, $1,396.26. But tbose undoubtedly were very hiiih society figures, sad bitfhiT be. cause of the paper money of the day. Anyhow, the majority of tbe throi g moving ,up and ilowu lower liroml way bought their sleel bustles at a dollar or less snd their ho.iwkirtp raDged in price from $1 up to $13 Their alpacas cost from 40 cents to (1.25 a yard, English wiuseys from 37 cents to 75 cents, aud French pop lins, $2 75 a yard. For tin ir black silts they could pay from (3 to as high as (20 a yard. But a black silk "did" as a "best" dress for a litetime. These shoppers purchasing their dress goods and trlmmiugs at tbe leading dry-goods stores, invariably stopped for a Bulterick pattern at 5t9 Broadway. Too first publica tion issued by the firm in the inter es s oi womeu was The Ladies' Quarterly Report of Broadway Fa.-h lonx Id 1867.1 In 1868 there appear, d in addition the monthly Metropoli an.

A Little Land Well Tilled Is Better Than Many Acres Poorly Worked The aver.ipe American does not believe there la much niom?y for him in the small farm. , Ask him if he believe he could make a living on a ton acre fiirm for a wife and three children, and he will throw up his hands. (Suggest five seres to him, and he will begin to suspect that you have designs upon his life. Kven if he be disposed -to wrench his living . from the soil which, probably he will not be he will tell you that he could nothing on less than forty acres, and that eighty would barely give him decent com forts. More likely, he would reject the farming proposition altogether, and take a polite clerkihip at twelve dollars a week, or a plaoe in a fac tory at ten dollars. Our national tendency is to get awuy from the land. In 1792. ninety-six per cent ot the population lived on farms. Now, seventy per cent, of the population are not engaged in farming. Americans are quitting tbe land as if they bad measured it possibilities and found them , Insuffic ient. That faot is that Americans never il retimed of the possibilities of land. Did as the earth is, Americana don't know what it can do. They regard Mother Esrtb as a lean mother. They believe much land must , be used to get a little living. They believe all luiid is like a yeast cake good only a little Wiiilo: witness tbe abandoned farn's to be found in New York and New Kngland. Americans are wrong. A little land is enough for a living. All laud is g'lod. Crops can be grown on sand if the grower knows how to grow them. No farms ever beoome use less. Il ls the farmer who become useliss. Auy land can be kept all that Pouce de Leon wanted to be biun-i If perpetually young. Broad ly i-ptaking, no land in America ever produced for a year a tenth of the wealth that it is capable of produo iug every year. If railroads were run as poorly as farms sre tilled, a lisiengt'r W' Uld requires week, in stiad of eighteen hours, to go from L'hicugo to New York. Lack of on-h-iBtandiug is ti e rule on the farm. Th, re erojust enough exceptions to prove t lie rule. Tuesday's Elections It was a democratic day, so called, but victory won with tbe aid of re publicans. Of twenty-seven Govern ors elected twelve were republicans and fifteen democrats. The greatest defection wss in the East ; New York, N w Jersey, Massachusetts, Connect icut and Ohio entering tbe democrat io olu mil .Tener' was elected In Pennsylvania by about 36,000 major ity. - The western states are nearly all republican. Nearly complete re turns from this state show that Tener reueivxi 3-18,209 votes, Berry 314,745 and Grim 116,817, leaving Tener in the minority of all votes cast of about 80,000. .
