Quaintance is with us. Ho will lond his presence and voice and persuasive ways and active sympathy to tho good work of snatching victory from tho haughty southerners. And when Hadley W. goes out after any prizo that depends on linguistic attainments ho generally gathers it in. Everybody who knows anything at all knows that. And this time Quaintanco is not only going after tho prize, ho is up with it, has passed it, is alroady three fur longs in advance of it and what ho doesn't know about Switzerland and popular rights isn't in tho books or magazines the librar ian knows that. Added to these tried and tempered war riors there is an ornamental pieco of furniture in tho person of ye humble scribe, whoso good naturo and porsonal attractions will add good form and eclat to tho occasion. In all it will bo an event long to bo re membered.
