The eflect of the high tariff has been to
enable the owners of obsolete machinery
and methods to run at a profit, but the
consumers have had to foot the bills. The
folly of taxing the people to carry on ex
pensive methods of production ought to be
apparent. That this has been the practice
under our high tariff laws is evident from
the present statements, though ridicu
lously variant, as to the cost of produc
tion made by protectionists themselves.
If the movement for the holding a Col

that course will be adopted. To this in
fluence residents of Washington are very

The fourth edition of a practical little

■n which many women and girls on farms
might engage without materially inter
fering with their household duties, and
>hu- make a few dollars every year. The
author thinks that it is by this means that
silk culture must be carried on in this as
it always has been in other countries.
Dur Consul in Belgium reports that the

. goblets are concerned, it is not remarka-
complain, because they do not
drink water; while as to the beer-glasses
their smallness, or. more truthfully, the
thickness of their base, is due to a Na
tional weakness which is not confined to
glasses, but may lie found in berry-boxes
and all other receptacles of edibles and
drinkables. Until weovereome this weak
ness of wanting two prices for half the
quantity, the Europeans might use the
beer-glasses for water and vice versa.
The quarrel between Prince Bismarck
and the German Diet—Germany has no
Parliament—should not lie taken verv se
riously. When the Parliament votes
against him the Prince does not resign
any more than Secretary Folger resigned
when his State rejected him by the heavi
est majority known in our State history.
In turn, if Prince Bismarck dissolves the
Diet, the country is likely to return the
same house or one very much like it. The
■fact is, the Prince may be a verv great
man. but his way of winning the good
will of tiie people by daring deeds and
daring defiance is clearly a failure, and
evidence of the fact that Prince Bismarck,
after all, is not a politician absolutely and
in all respects of the first order. For
such a one avoids useless friction, just as
does a first class engineer, a first class
politician surely should resemble a man
<>t the world in never quarreling unless
something is to lie gained. But Prince
Bismarck, like a petty politician and a
■ki"daut, quarrels liecause other people are
; .jiffck-biutself.
A New Book by “Major Jones."
John’s Alive; or the Bride of a Ghost,
and Other Sketches. By “Major Jones”
(Willian Tappan Thompson;, with ten
original full page illustrations by H. f.
Cariss. Philadelphia; David McKay,
23 South Ninth street.
Among the few Americans who have
gained a place among the “immortals” in
literature, is the author of "Major Jones’
Courtship.” The announcement of an
other work by the greatest of American
humorists is at once a surprise and
pleasure to the literary world. The
lamented author. in his later
years absorbed in his editorial duties,
to which he gave his almost undivided
attention, gave little play to the rare
genius which he possessed. The work
which is the subject of this notice is a
series of sketches, from the first of which,
"John's Alive," it takes its title.
“John’s Alive” is, perhaps, the most
humorous of the inimitable "Major’s”
productions. The illustrations, by Mr.
Cariss, exhibit a rare fidelity to the text
and lend an added zest to the pleasure of
the reader.
• “Recollections of the Florida Campaign
Against the Seminole Indians," in which
the “Major" participated, is a capital
grouping of the inevitable comicalities of
camp life, and sparkles with flashes of
vvit and humor.
“Going Ashore” is a brief morsel of fun
at the expense of a young man who had
the good *luek to possess a father with a
long bank account. His adventures, or
rather misadventures, are made to yield a
rich fund of enjoyment.
"The Maple Sugar Camp” and “Burg
lars of Iola” are in the “Major’s” wonted
happy vein, and increase the charms of
the volume.
Ihe work, which we are confident will
be widely and warmly welcomed, is pul>-

street, Philadelphia, it is issued in duo

The Cost of Protection.
The capital invested in manufacturing
'in the United States in 1880 was $2,790,-
000,000; the wages paid to 2,700,000 hands
was $048,000,000, an average of $1 17 per
day; the value of the material used, $3,-
400,006,000; value of products, $5,300,000,-
000. Deducting from the value here set
down for products the 43% per cent, of
value added by the tariff, Prof. Sumner
iindsthat the value of our manufacturing
products in the markets of the world in
tiie census year was but $.3,700,000,000.
The difference between these two state
ments of product value, or $1,600,000,000,
is the amount of the tax which the
tariff imposes. The Professor then pro
ceeds to argue that it would pay the
country better to Idve all the laborers en
gaged in manufactures to stand idle and
allow the capitalists 10 per cent, on their
capital. As shown by the census, the
wages paid in the census year amounted
to $1)48,600,000, and 10 per cent, on the
$2,790,000,000 capital invested is $279,000,-
000, making the aggregate of the wages
paid and interest on capital but $1,227,-
000,000, while, as shown above, the cost
of the tariff stimulus was $1,600,000,000.
Hence the profit in hiring manufactur
ers not to manufacture, according to Pro
fessor Sumner, would be $373,000,000.
Reasoning in the same manner in regard
to pig-iron, he finds that the country
would have realized in the census year a
profit of $2,800,000 by hiring all persons
laboring in the production of pig-iron at
full wages to jemain idle, and paying 10
per cent, profit on the capital invested in
its production, provided the 3,700,000 tons
produced that year were permitted to be
bought'in a free market here or elsewhere.
Similarly, it would save the country $34,-
878 to pay the 1,795 persons making glue
not to make it, and the people could afford
to pay the soap manufacturers $5,000,000,
the castor oil manufacturers $34,000, the
glucose manufacturers $136,000 annu
ally to close up their shops and pension
their hands on full wages.
The death of Prince Batthyany, the lead
ing member of the London Jockey Club,
at a ripe old age, has brought forth the
observation that in England, at least, the
pursuit of horse racing has been eminent
ly conducive to longevity. Os the London
Jockey Club, Lord Stradbroke will be 90
in February next. Lord Mostyn will attain
the same age in 1885, and General Pear
son is an old man. Mr. Barns has passed
the 80th mile stone, and Prince Batthyany
had almost reached it when death sud
denly cut him off. The famous
Duke of Queensberry died at 86;
Lord Clermont at 84; Mr. Pere
grine Wentworth’ at 88; Mr. Thomas
Panton at 87; the two racing Dukes of
Grafton at 84 and 76; Sir Charles Bun
bury at 82; the Earl of Egremont at 95;
the Hon. Richard Vernon at 88; Sir John
Lade at 80, and the fourth Duke of Port
land—the father of Lord George Bentinck
—at 86. This is certainly a remarkable
record, and one that appears to establish
the truth of the observation before alluded
to. But it is the out door life that brings
the ripe old age, and this can be had by
others than gentlemen horse racers. A
judicious amountof out door exercise will
add to any person's years and is absolute
ly necessary if one would have a long and
healthy life.
The Cleveland Herald says that “mem
bers of the Republican party” had hoped
Mr. Conkling “would find the law busi
ness so lucrative that he would never
leave it, even to make a political speech.”
The Cincinnati Times-Star retorts:
“These same 'members of the Republican
party’ were very glad to obtain Mr.
Conkling’s services in 1880, and we ven
ture to say they will want him again in
1884. When there are no battles to fight,
these ‘members of the Republican party’
malignantly assail the eminent New
York statesman—chiefly because he
towers so far above them all—but when a
struggle comes on they cry to him for
heli«*» Verily, Republican harmony
growsTtpace.
The London Times, on the morning af
ter Mr. Gladstone's great speech, said:
“No small portion of Mr. Gladstone’s
speech was occupied with a somewhat
too labored reply to attacks made not so
much upon the bill as upon the govern
ment. When, however, he addressed him
self to the real question at issue he be
came at once powerful and eloquent, and
propounded an argument from which, as
it seems to us, there is no escape unless
Parliament and the country are prepared
to turn back from the path they have
pursued for more than half a century, and
to undo the work of establishing religious
freedom.”
“In New York." writes a well known
correspondent. "I was once shocked to
hear a mother say to her daughter (and
she was a very estimable woman, too), ‘I
wish you to be confirmed at Grace
Church, because it is a more fashionable
church than Ascension. I should be very
much ashamed of you if you married a
poor man. 1 should be ashamed of my
self and unworthy of your father’s con
fidence if I allowed any girl to be better
dressed than you are.’ "•

Transition.
It is a well-known fact that when any
impression upon our senses continues in
unvarying action, we cease to become
conscious of it. The noise of the city that
distracts the country visitor through the
day and disturbs his rest at night is
scarcely heard by the citizen on whose
ear it continually falls. The jeweler does
not hear the incessant ticking of his
clocks, nor the factory hands the deafen
ing noises ot the machinery, nor the for
ester the twittering of the birds. Let these
sounds suddenly cease and consciousness
is aroused at once. So with sight. We
tread a familiar path or enter a fa*miliar
room without noticing the objects around
us; but if a house has been burned
down, or the road has been repaired, or
the furniture of the room been altered,
we at once see the change. We never
feel the pressure of the atmosphere; we
rarely notice the constant contact ol our
clothing, but an unfamiliar touch, be it
ever so gentle, instantly awakens our at
tention. The sensations of heat and cold
are due to the transitions from one to the
other, or from a greater to a less degree of
either. It is change that lies at the root
of all our sensations, and, as Hobbes has
said, "It is almost all one, fora man to be
always sensible of one and the same
thing, and not to be sensible at all of any
thing.”
This necessity*of contrast is equally
evident in our mental and emotional na
tures. All our knowledge comes to- us
through this source; there is a negative
to every positive. No idea of a straight
line could be gained without some notion
of a curve, there could be no conception
of motion without rest, of a fluid without
a solid, of number without unity. ’ Educa
tion is chiefly concerned in making these
contrasts clear, in showing how, on the
one hand, to discriminate between them,
and on the other, to harmonize them.
No child could have any adequate
idea of terra firma without some motion
of the sea, and the clearness of one con
ception depends upon the clearness of the
other. All mental conditions that fail to
recognize these contrasts sink by degrees
into insanity. The man of one idea can
never do justice to that one, because he
cannot fully appreciate it without looking
at its opposite. Its essence escapes him,
and while he may be loudly proclaiming
its letter, he has lost its spirit.
We often see this exemplified in current
national ideas. Some great truth or
principle is brought to light, and animates
a young colony or forms the corner stoue
of a new government. It is full of fresh
power and vitality, inspiring the hearts ot
the people and bringing forth heroic deeds
and noble lives. The contrast between
the old form and the new is fresh in their
minds, and their enthusiasm for the latter
is equal to all demands. Years pass, a
new generation springs up, who has
no such memories; the present or
der of things is to them a matter
of course, inspiring to no special
effort, and infusing no particular emo
tion. They retain it and benefit by it, but
they cannot be aroused to their highest
powers until a new departure reveals to
them another contrast and leads them
another step upward in national progress.
Just as we cease to hear the sound that
is ever in our ears, or to see the object
that never leaves our sight, so we lose the
keen appreciation of what is universally
accepted, and forget the value which no
body disputes.
The same thing is experienced in every
individual life. All active enjoyment de
pends on contrast. The healthy man,who
has never known sickness, is unconscious
of the blessing of health; the rich man,
who has never known want, does not re
joice in his circumstances; they simply
think nothing about the matter. It is the
transition from pain to comfort, from
poverty to plenty,from ignorance to knowl
edge, from the condition craving to the
condition of having, that produces the keen
emotion of joy. At first, this is intense,
but’gradually, as the memory of the pain
or want fades, the glad excitement fades
also, and another change is needed to re
vive the feeling. Much of the envy and
the pity with which we regard those in
different circumstances from ourselves is
misplaced on this account; they are
neither so happy nor so miserable as we
should be if suddenly called to change
places with them, because they cannot
experience the change that it would be to
us.
So with all moral progress. Virtues
that were once rare, are now universal;
crimes that were once common have drop
ped almost out of remembrance. We can
not feel any keen self-approval because
we are not cannibals, or thrill with
joy because we do not fight duels.
But wc are very conscious of pre
sent. transitions from worse to better, of
conquered vices, of resisted temptations,
of new power and fresh triumphs. These
excite our enthusiasm and arouse our
. energy, if we are so happy as to experience
them. There is then no cause for the
dread of transitions that are some
times here expressed. They are needful
to all consciousness, to all life, to all pro
gress. Whatever is monotonous and in
variable tends to destroy conscious activ
ity, or rathee to remove it from itself,
whether in the realm of the senses, the
emotions, the mental powers or the moral
faculties. It is useless to fight against
this law, or to blame humanity for its
results. What we have to do is simply to
put ourselves into harmony with it. Let
us only make sure that these contrasts
are truly experienced, that these transi
tions are in the right direction, that our
steps are always upward and onward,
not downward or backward, and we need
not feel alarmed or distressed, though
much of the past good that has become
consolidated into our characters will no
longer arouse our enthusiasm.
Gold and silver mines are good things
to have around, but in the long run iron
mines and coal mines are better. Ten
years from now the history of the Pacific
Slope will furnish a striking illustration
of this fact. For a decade, at least, it has
been apparent in the Far West that the
mining of the precious metals does not
bring general or permanent prosperity;
another decade will probably show the
people of the coast what immense benefits
are to be derived from those branches
of industry which have made New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio centres of
activity and of thrift, and which are now
doing wonders for the South. Oregon and
Washington Territory possess inexhaust
ible deposits of coal andiron. Tiie sup
ply of both is along the west shores, where
it can be conveniently utilized. As yet
the’business ot production is in its in
fancy. Coal is mined extensively only
in two places—on Puget Sound and at
Coos Bay, in Southern Oregon. Iron
works are in operation near Fort
Townsend, on the sound. A company
has just been organized, with $3,000,000
capital, to mine and smelt iron ore as Os
wego, eight miles above Portland. Rolling
mills and other works will be built as
soon as possible. From this beginning,
it is predicted, the industry will grow
rapidly, and with the development of
these resources of the coast, population
will increase and genuine prosperity
abound.
A correspondent of the Boston Post
gives, upon the authority of a gentleman
intimately related to Daniel Webster's
family, some explanations of the circum
stances attending the utterance of the
great-expounder's last words. He says
that in answer to a question from an at
tendant at the bedside of Webster one of
his physicians said in substance: “Y’ou
may give him a spoonful of stimulant at
o'clock; another at o'clock; another
at o’clock; and, if he still lives, another
at —o'clock.” These directions were fol
lowed with exactness until the arrival ot
the hour last mentioned, when the attend
ants were undecided about administering
another dose. It was in the midst of their
doubts that the dying statesman partly
raised his head and feebly remarked : "I
still live.”
The French in Tonquin have occupied
Namdin and have repulsed 4,000 Anna

recognize France’s protectorate, in which
event the integrity of his dominions will
be guaranteed. If the King believes this
be must be a credulous individual.

there cannot be the elements of true sta

political system which has bred the evils

their party as it did four years ago?
Whether Tammany would be able to re

earth any sort of barrel that has been
bored well all jround with inch holes.

months in bearing.
The Shepherdstown, W. Va., Register
is responsible for this: “A man by the
name of Charles Moon, who is employed
in a Denver billiard saloon, swallowed a
live bull frog on a wager last Thursday

whisky and said tijat he felt remarkably
well. The frog is reported to have been

“The sensation of being laced in tight,”
writes a Hamilton lady to the Toronto
Globe, “is an enjoyable one that only
those who have experienced it can under
stand. I have been in corsets ever since
I was eight years ol age, and I am now
past my teens, and though I am five feet

hundred, and an average day’s work is
660 cans, making $2 a fair day’s pay. The
rates jlemanded by the union are from
forty to forty-five cents a hundred. For a

The largest block of stbne ever trans
ported, not excepting those in the Chinese
wall and the Pyramids, was that from
which was cut the pedestal of the statue
’of Peter the Great, in St. Petersburg. It
was a block of granite weighing 1,500
tons, and was found isolated on marshy
ground about four miles from the Neva.
Its shape was that of an irregular prism,
twenty-four feet high, forty-seven feet
long and thirty feet broad in its largest
dimensions.
Col. C. J. Carraway, a citizen of Polk

Baltimore Sun, a tew weeks ago, wanting
a wife. A day or two after the advertise

ceived a letter from a Baltimore lady, en
closing her photograph, with a description
of herself, and he was so well pleased with
it all that he concluded to go to Balti
more and see the lady in person. He
went last week, and when he returned he
brought the lady home with him, having
married her a few days after he saw her
in Baltimore.
A Brooklyn Aiderman introduced a re
solution callinsr upon the bridge trustees
to have removed from the front of the
Sands street station a number of iron
castings of a lion’s head. He supported
it in a speech, in which he suggested that
the national coat of arms and an eagle
should lie substituted for the head of the
king of beasts. He evidently forgot that
the eagle is claimed by some"of “the effete
despotisms of Europe" as their national
emblem, and the substitution of this bird
for (he objectionable lion's head might be
quite as great an eye-sore to some citi
zens as is the lion to the Aiderman. A
fellow Aiderman turned the tables by
suggesting that a cast-iron head of the
irate member tie substituted for the ob
noxious lion.
A pearl fishery of great promise was.
some time back, reported in the Gulf of
Mexico. During this winter fishermen
prospectors have found some pearls-of
great value among not a few smaller
gems. The first was taken from the shell
ot a pearl oyster in December last, 1882.
It is believed to be the largest on record.
It weighs seventy-five carats. A jeweler
offered $14,000, which was accepted. That
sum is very far below its real value. An
other of forty-seven carats is since found,
perfect in form and finely tinted. It is
valued on the spot at $5,000. A third pearl
of forty carats, yet more beautiful, was
exhibited at LaPaz. where $.3,000 was bid.
This success of the first serious exploita
tion is justly regarded as evidence of ex
tensive deposits of pearl-bearing oysters,
and great excitement pervades all the fish
ermen in that gulf.

CONCERNING SPRING RHYMES.
The Horse Reporter Tells How to Knit
Poems with a Darning Needle.
Chicago Tribune.
“Is the real editor in?”
A fairly good-looking young lady stood
in the doorway and glanced around the
apartment in an inquiring fashion.
“We don't keep any supposititious edi
tors on this paper,” said the horse re
porter.
“Who has charge of the poetry ?” con
tinued the young lady.
“The janitor mostly,although he doesn’t
clean the windows often enough to keep
the stock reduced and give all the points a
fair chance.”
“I have written a poem which I should
like to see printed in the Tribune, because
it is my favorite paper; papa has taken it
for 20 years.”
“Yes, we know all about that,” said the
horse reporter. “What we want just now
is something that will jibe with the season
—no ‘Oh, the merry,merry May-time with
its wealth of floral bloom,’j but a verse or
two that has a contemporaneous human
interest, such as
Beat the carpet gently, papa;
Do not slug it quite so hard;
For you never can replace it
Short of eighty cents a yard.
“Do you think that is nice poetry?”
asked the young lady.
“Well, there isn’t much ‘I am wander
ing by the brookside,’ but it’s a good, ser
viceable rhyme. Something like
Don’t forget the garden hose,
Wipe the darling baby’s nose,
Put the looking-glass and tooth-brush safe
away.
Here is Lulu’s other bustle,
Conte now, girls, get up and hustle,
We are moving—it’s the merry month of May.
“My poem is about the spring-time, too,”
said the young lady, “but it is different
from that.”
“How does it go?”
The poet produced a roll of manscript
and read her verses.
“You must have written that in a Wig
gins year,” said the horse reporter.
“You’ve got some daisy kind of weather
strung along through tliat little epic.”
“But I don’t see—”
“Os course you don’t,” said the friend
of Rarus. “There are none so blind as
those who won’t quit writing poetry. But
I’ll show you. Now, in the first stanza of
your poem it tells about your sitting by
the creek where you and whatever his
name is sat ‘one little year ago'—al
though where there is any difference in
the size of years I have never been able
to discover.’ Then it says that the soft rain
pattered on the leaves and the April grass
was wet,doesn’t it?”
“Yes, sir,” replied the poet.
“I hope you had your gum shoes along,
sis, because there is nothing sadder than
lovely woman with a cold in her head.”
“Well, really, sir, I thought that was a
good poem. Mamma thought so ; too.
Then you can’t print my verses?” said the
young lady.
“Oh, yes, they will be printed.”
“Thanks. Will it be sure to go in if
you say so?”
“Yes’.”
“Well, I didn't know. You seem rath
er young to have such a responsible posi
tion.”
“You remember what Socrates said,”
replied the horse reporter: ‘Young men
for war; old men for counsel’ —in divorce
cases.”
“Good day, sir,” said the poet.
“Bonjour,” replied the horse reporter.
“I don’t know what bonjour means, but
the literary editor always says it, and
when it comes to talking anything but
United States he is a large white daisy
with a yellow spot in the centre.”
The lines of railway in the five divisions
of the earth cost, in found numbers, $16,-
600,000,000, and would, according to Baron
Kolb, reach eight times around the globe,
although it is but little over a Iralf cen
tury since the first steam railway
opened between Darlington and Stockton.
September 27, 1825, and between Man
chester and Liverpool. September 15, 1830.
It is shown that in France, previous to
the existence of railways, there was one
passenger in every 335,0<M) killed and one
in every 30,000 wounded; whereas, be
tween 1835 and 1878 there was but one in
5,178,890 killed, and one in 580,450 wound
ed; so that we may infer that the tendency
to accidents is yearly diminishing. Rail
way traveling’ in England is attended
with greater risk than in any other coun
try in Europe. A French statistician ob
serves that if a jiorson were to live con
stantly in a railway carriage, and spend
all his time in railway traveling, the
chances of his dying from a railway acci
dent would not occur till he was 960 vears
old.
