The Albany Journal (ltep.)' gives the
protectionists this warning: “They will
have no revision of any kind. To our
notion, this refusal will hasten by years
the ultimate downfall of the whole theory
of protection. When the time comes to

will be more appropriate than -Killed by

Ben Butler recently issued a fast day
proclamation concluding as follows:
“And I do specially exhort the minis

not to discourse upon political and other
secular topics which may divert the
serious thoughts of the people from hum
ble worship of the Father.”
The city of Philadelphia denies the
correctness of the United States
census, and has had anew
census of her manufacturing estab
lishments taken. This census shows that
there are 3,105 more manufactories, with
C 3.704 more employes than were credited
to the city by the census of 1880. (>n the
basis of this census Philadelphia claims
to be the greatest manufacturing city in
the country.
Mr. Gorst’s amendment to the address
in reply to the speech from the Throne,
declaring that in view of the confession of
the Irish assassins, no further conces
sions should lie made to lawless agita
tion, was a piece of imbecility that even
Parliament could not stomaeh. As has
been fitly said, the government holds the
Irishman by the throat all day and locks
him up in his house at night. Reform,
and reform of the largest kind, is needed
uuder such circumstances.
The California Assembly has passed a
bill providing that a murderer who enters
a plea of insanity shall first lie examined
as to insanity alone, without regard to
his crime; and if the court finds him sane
he shall be tried for murder, the false
plea 'entering as an “aggravation of the
offense.” But it the plea of insanity is
sustained, the defendant shall be sent to a
madhouse by the court, and never remov
ed unless his sanity at the time of the
murder is proved. Then he shall be tried
on the original charge.
A disgusted Ohio wool-grower, who de
spairs of getting an increase of protection
for his interest, says that prior to 1867 the
wool growers had no protection. “Then
there were 22,000.000 sheep in the United
States. Now there are 50,000,000. Then
the wool product was 60,000,000 pounds
per year. Now it is 300,000,000. The
value of the wool product of this country
is now *85,000,000 per year, the mutton
product *40.000,000. the capital invested in
sheep *200,000,000, and in 6beep lands
*1,000,0110,000.” It would look as though
the wool infant was quite healthy.
The annual report of the New York So- !
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Children has just been published. During
the past eight years 10,455 complaints
were received, involving more than 31,335
children; 3.068 eases were prosecuted,
2,818 persons convicted, and 5,1449 chil
dren were relieved and placed in homes
and Institutions. During the past year
1,035 cases were prosecuted, and there
were 1,009 convictions. The report gives
a detailed aceouut of some of the most
distressing cases of cruelty which have
come under the observation of the officers
of the society. *
The English courts, says the Boston
Advertiser, seem to be stretching the law
of libel to an extent more ingenious than
sensible in the prosecution of the novelist
and editor, Edmund Yates, for an alleged
libel on Lord Lonsdale. Reference had
been liberally made to an unnamed
“young Peer,” ‘-whose wife was in deli
cate health,” and “who was a Master of
Hounds.” Lord Lonsdale saw tit to fit
the cap to his own head. And this was
the way in which Attorney General James
substantially cut the cloth of thO cap for
him: “It must be my client, for he is
young, being twenty-six; his wife is in
ill health; there are only five Masters of
Hounds among Peers under thirty years
of age; one is unmarried, and the wives
of the other three (naming them) are in
excellent health; therefore the libel must
refer to niv client.” And upon these facts
Mr. Baron Pollock (not in the course of
time, but immediately ) granted a rule for
Mr. Yates’ arrest and prosecution. Is not
this raising libel evidence to the Nth
power of P plus Qf
The People’s Eyes Wide Open.
The last hours of the Forty-Seventh Con
gress are drawing on apace. The entire
session has lieen practically wasted.
Nothing has been done to relieve public
burdens, and the effect of the
windy discussions that have taken place
has been to beget distrust in business cir
cles. The trouble has lieen that most of
the members ou either side in both cham
bers have been considering not the in
terests of the people but of their party.
Could the Republican leaders have ex
acted the same obedience as they were
wont to receive from their as
sociates, the question of taxation
would have been disposed of long ago. and
other problems taken up. The lack
of harmony among the Republicans,
however, prevented anything like
concerted aetion. and. as a conse
quence, the House tariff bill, after con
suming weeks of valuable time, has col
lapsed.
So, too, on the Democratic side, had
there been fewer trimmers, there might
have been exerted a strength which, al
lied with the support from Republican
revenue reformers, might have given the
country a statesmanlike measure that
would have met the demauds
of the people. As matters
stand, the Forty-seventh Congress
Is on the eve of adjournment,
after having disturbed the business of the
country and disgusted the people with a
windy debate upon a question it never
meant to honestly settle, and the only
likelihood of its adjustment at all arises
from the prospect ot the subject being
relegated to a conference committee.
If such is to be the outcome of all the fuss
that has been made over the matter, it
would have been far easier and economi
cal to have referred the subject to a com
mittee in the first place.
But whether the subject of the tariff as
presented by the Senate bill will go to a
conference committee is uncertain. There
is no doubt that the Republicans will
strive to so disjiose of it, but whether they
shall succeed or not, the question of re
ducing taxes is one that cannot be so
easily laid aside, The people elected
a Congress to dispose of it,
and the work must Ik* done, whether at
an extra session or at the regular session
next winter. Numerous Democratic
statesmen have played, as they thought,
shrewdly at the present "session, but the
day for fooling the people
has gone by. These Democratic
statesmen will lpive an opportunity to
think over what they have done, and will,
doubtless, find it to their advantage to
modify their |>ositions considerably. They
must take their stand on the side of the
people or of the monoi>olists. There can
be no middle ground.
The failure of the Forty-seventh Con
gress to afford relief brought about the
results of last November. The people
looked for nothing this winter. Rut they
look for mueh at the hands of the next
Congress, and, if that body
proves recreant to duty, it will
le sternly judged. Democracy's oppor
tunity is at band, but to embrace it there
is need to throw away duplicity, chica
nery and the arts of the jobbej, and to
rely ui>on honesty, patriotism and prin
ciple. The people are watching the
statesmen, ami their eyes are wide open.
A gentleman who has lived many years
in Ctili and Peru writes to the Han Fran
cisco Bulletin that our trade with those
countries will never assume the propor
tion desired until “properly paid and ap
pointed American Consuls” have been
placed In their i-orts. He says: “In sev
eral ports the British Consul is also the
United States representative. Which
country gets the benefit of this system?
Most assuredly Great Britain, whose con
suls, being well paid, take the pains to
send in elaborate yearly reports, giving
reliable and exhaustive information ou
the trade and industries of the province
or country they live in. They naturally
neglect to forward American interests, as
by so doing they would clash with those
of their own country.” There is enough
money wasted annually in paying the
salaries of Ministers Plenipotentiary to
make our consular service efficient.
The Philadelphia Pres* has discovered
that by “a lamentable oversight” the duty
on manufactured clothing has been fixed
at a lower rate than that on the textile
fabrics entering into its conqiosition, and
it predicts as a consequence an enormous
importation of clothing from Europe. It
strikes the Baltimore Day, however, that
there is room for a question as to whether
the discrimination the Press complains of
is the result of oversight or of design. It
will lie remembered that after the Evarts-
Astor-Dodge high tariff meeting in Cooper
Institute a counter demonstration was
made at the same place in behalf of lower
duties, in which many of the large New
York clothing manufacturers partici
pated; and the protectionists are quite
capable of revenging themselves on these
men by lowering the duties on the goods
they produce and on nothing else.
The Bnilteay Aye will publish a sum
mary of the railway construction in the
United States for the year of 1882. The
summary covers only the main tracks,
and shows the construction in forty-five
States and Territories, on 342 lines, to ag
gregate 11,343 miles, or about 2,ooo‘miles
more than in 1881, which exceeded
the construction in any previous
year by 2,000 miles. The con
struction is divided as follows:
In five New England States, 53(4 miles;
in four Middle States, 1,315(4 uiiles; in
five middle Western States, 2.077(4 miles;
in eleven Southern States, 1,490(4 miles;
in four States in the Missouri River belt,
2.063(4 miles; in five States in the Colo
rado belt 1,165 miles; in five States in the
Kansas belt, 2^57 (4 miles, and in six
States in the Pacific belt, 1,020 miles.
The Natchez Democrat says it is a mis
take to believe that rice can only be grown
on lowlands which can be flooded. It
grows luxuriantly on very thin uplands
and yields a remunerative crop. In
former years the planters in the vicinity
ot Natchez cultivated rice for home con
sumption. Recently a physician in Jef
ferson county planted an eighth of an acre
with a pint of rice seed. The plant grew
vigorously, was cultivated like corn and
produced six bushels of rice. Many per
sons on the coast And rice more profitable
than sugar, raising fifty bushels per acre.
The mills for hulling aud cleaning the
grain arc so simple and cheap that the
planter can easily prepare his crop for
market.
According to an item in the Breeders' 1
Gazette, the 2,6*0 woolen mills of the
United States in I*Bo used 06,001,754
pounds of shoddy and hair, being equal to
one-fourth of the gross weight of the wool
clip of that year and 39 per cent, of the
scoured wool, domestic and imported,
used in the same mills. The inference
drawn from the fact presented is that the
use of shoddy, which was nearly 59,000,000
pounds in is increasing, since large
quantities are now consigned to mills
which formerly refused to use it. Wool
growers are warned to look for an in
creased competition from this source in
the future.
Billy Chandler jumped to the conclusion
that because Lieutenant Commander
Gorringe favored free ships he had lieen
seduced by British gold. While
ringe wore his uniform he was helpless,
but now that he wears the garb of a pri

Johnny Roach's man. Chandler is a
jobbing politician and can never be any
thing else.
The Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette
gives a detailed estimate of the losses in
one-half the overflowed district in that
city, which makes them s*oo,ooo. Double
this for the whole inundated area, and the
total loss is $1,600,000. If this estimate be
correct, the entire losses along the Ohio
and Lower Mississippi will probably
reach $10,000,000.

A Marvel of Ingenuity.
Philadelphia Record.
What chieflv bothers the Republicans
in Congress "is how to reduce internal
taxation without reducing the army of
tax collectors. The bill which has passed
the Senate is a marvel of ingenuity in
meeting this requirement of the political
situation. It would perhaps reduce the
taxes *20.000.000 without tripping up the

Billy Chandler Shows His Hand.
Albany Journal (Rep.).
While the sympathy of his brother offi
cers and of the public at large will be
with the ex-officer (Gorringe), the pro
ceeding throughout offers other than per
sonal suggestions. Just so soon as pro
tectionists in office or out of office attempt
to use such influence as they enjoy for the
suppression of free discussion ot their sys
tem, that system is on the verge of de
struction. Mr. Chandler will doubtless
talk of discipline and the impertinence of
inferiors if he looks about for a defense.
Men who read and think, however, will
see back of his words the arbitrary
declaration that opposition to the monopo
ly of John Roach and the high tariff is in
consistent with service in the navy of the

The Remedy With People.
St. Paul Pioneer (Rep.).
The failure of the internal revenue bill
probably marks the final collapse of all
attempts to reduce the revenue at this
session unless some proposition to scale
down all duties by a.certain fixed per
cent, shall lie rushed through in the clos
ing hours. Nothing else could be expectrd
from a body which acts on national issues
just as a great convention composed of the
members of the Legislatures ot all the
States might lie supiwsed to do. Nor until
wt* shall choose men whose views of pub
lic iiollcy are not determined by the boun
daries of their districts need we hope for
anv measure better than the present
hodge-podge of crudity, absurdity and in
justice known as the tariff.
The Value of Competition. *
Galveston Xetc* (Item,).
The greater the freedom of railroad
enterprise the less it is impeded and dis
couraged, the more it operates to correct
or prevent conditions of railroad monopoly
by bringing out from otherwise idle
resources active and aggressive forces of
competition, Given this result all the
great railroad systems would strive,
under the sharp pressure of competition,
to increase to the utmost their truffle in
the transportation of both foreign and
domestic products, and this would define
a natural antagonism between combined
railroad capitalists and combined protec
tive tariff monoiiolists, whose policy in
volves a necessary limitation to lioth
foreign aud domestic commerce. Why
should not one combination lie utilized
for crushing out the other? Perhaps,
after all, here is the readiest and most
promising key to the solution of the
monopoly question.

The new disease, aphasia, from which
Emerson suffered during the last days of

coat, and be utterly unable to recall the
names of the members of his own family,
although he knows each one of them per

Hang Ah Duck, a Chinese murderer at
San Rafael, Cal., anticipated his hanging
with the utmost satisfaction. He im

the execution, believing that after death
he would be in purgatory for a period of
not less than one year nor more than
twenty, during which period he would be
able to return to the earth and torment
his enemies. This doctrine caused him to
look forward with so much pleasure to his
death that he attempted suicide, and when
taken to the scaffold literally jumped for
jov.
James Carey, the Dublin witness, was

He was with difficulty restrained by the

thev gallantly escort jeweled beauties to
neat broughams, that they rush lorward
to give their arms to dainty creatures
clad in Russian sables, that diamond
rings sparkle in the gaslight, and that the
hall doors of Park Lane and Mayfair,
after a ball in the season, are nothing to
the stage doors of our fashionable thea
tres.”
Morocco has contracted with the Paris
Mint for coins of various denominations,
representing a total value of about $5,000,-
000. On one side of the coin will lie
stainped a verse from the Koran, and on
the other the date according to the Hegira.
The Paris Mint frequently accepts con
tracts of this sort from abroad. It is also
under contract at the present time to sup
ply 2,500,000 coins of 5 and 10 liptas (1
cent and 2 cents) to the HeUinic govern
ment within the next three years. There
are 22 presses in the mint, and they are
said to lie capable of manufacturing 593,-
000 coins per day.
With the exception ol restraints laid
upon the Jews, freedom of religion is the
law of the Russian empire. All forms
may exist, and are tolerated, What is
not allowed is that a Russian shall give
up connection with the orthodox Catholic
faith for any other. In the case of mixed
marriages the children must be brought
up as members of that church. Abandon
ing the Graeco-Russian religion entails
prosecution by the Holy Synod, depriva
tion of children, and the handing over of
the property of the apostate to managers
appointed by the civil authorities. The
Halos points out how injurious these
severities are. and advocates full relig
ious freedom after the manner of England
and Germany.
The following is a letter written by
Franz Liszt from Budai>cst, January 28,
in reply to a request that he would play in
Paris for the benefit of inundated Alsace-
Lorraine: “Mr. Director; “In my dis
patch of this morning I have told you with
regret that I cannot take part in your con
cert. It would be pleasant to play, and I
cannot forget what I owe to Paris, where
I have passed my earlier days. But sev
enty-two years of age disable me as a
piaiiist. For years I have not practiced,
and I could not try my ten fingers in pult
lic without suffering a defeat. On -this
there is no doubt, and in consequence of
my advanced age I have decided not to
appear as a public concert player in any
country. Receive, etc., Franz Liszt.”
The apportionment of California into
six Congressional districts, as determined
by the Democrats, makes two Republican
and tour Democratic, on the basis of the
Presidential vote in 1880, but 011 the basis
of the Stoneman tidal wave in 1882 all
would i>e Democratic. It is the general
impression among well informed politi
cians that it willl>e next to impossible
for the Republicans to wrest California
from the Democrats in 1884, The party is
using its opportunities wisely aud the ad
ministration is making new friends daily.
The Republicans are demoralized.

STRENGTH
to vigorously push a business;
strength to study a profession,
strength to regulate a household,
strength to do a day’s labor with
out physical pain. All this repre
sents what is wanted, in the often
heard expression, “ Oh! i wish I
had the strength!” If you are
broken down, have not energy, or
feel as if life was hardly worth liv
ing, you can be relieved and re
stored to robust health and strength
by taking BROWN’S IRON BIT
TERS, which is a true tonic—a
medicine universally recommended
for ail wasting diseases.
Soi N. Fremont St., Baltimore
During the war I was in
jured in the stomach by a piece
of a shell, and have suffered
from it ever since. About four
years ago it brought on paraly
sis, which kept me in bed six
months, and the best doctors
in the city said I could not
live. I suffered fearfully from
indigestion, and for over two
years could not eat solid food
and for a large portion of the
time was unable to retain even
liquid nourishment. I tried
Brown’s Iron Bitters and now
after talcing two bottles I am
able to get up and go around
and am rapidly improving.
