Turner Talks.
Hon. H. G. Turner gave the re
publican tariff tinkers, and, inciden
tally, the sub treasury plan, sonic
sturdy blows, iu the house, yesterday.
The Constitution's correspondent says:
Mr. Turner, of Georgia, came to
the front with a good, practical tariff
speech in which lie scored the repub
licans for their efforts to oppress the
farmer in the formation of the tariff
bill. He first opposed the sub-
treasury scheme, hoping that his con
stituents would never put their farm
products in the hands of the republi
can party, which lias carried on all
the fiscal operations of the country,
and has caused the present contrac
tion iu currency. The farmers arc
asking relief, he said, but instead they
should be asking the government to
take its hands off their pockets. He
wanted to know, while they were
providing for a bounty on sugar, why
they did not provide for a similar one
or; cotton and corn and wheat. He
hoped the time would never come
when the farmers would be Mie bonds
men of the administration. He then
brought in the main feature of his
speech, which was that while the. use
ot fertilizers had nearly doubled the
cotton crop the republican party had
determined to tax the farmer for j Sorrow am * physical
enaiching his soil. Iu Georgia over
200,000 tons were consumed annually.
Under this bill it was proposed to tax
sulphuric acid one quarter of a cent
a pound. The acid is iudispcnsable
to fertilizers, and the tax would
amount to $25 a ton on fertilizers.
You tax cotiou bagging, he said, you
tax iron ties, and now you propose
to tax everything that goes to make
up a bale of cotton. The tax on sul
phuric acid alone would cost the
farmers of Georgia 8500,000 a year,
one-half as much as the entire state
tax. On the citizens of his county
alone lie said the tax would he 8.1,000.
This bill, he said, would put millions
of dollars tax on the farmers which
had not been borne by them hereto
fore, for sulphuric acid is now taxed.
It was wickedness. Mr. Turner
strewed a few hayseed in his remarks,
but it was one of the most practical
arguments yet made, and it showed
up the policy of the republicans to
put every possible burden upon the
people of the south, because they are
democrats. He indeed scored some
master blows upon the republican
leaders who bad formulated the bill.
Garfield's Body Moved
taught in different schools, hut both
wore honest. Ho had tested the fight
ing qualities of Massachusetts, and
knew her courage. He also said that
Virginia had no other ambition now
than to go side by side with Massa
chusetts as generous rivals in the
march of progress, contesting for the
crown of success heart to heart and
shoulder to shoulder.
Such words w ill hasten the coming
of the era of good feeling and frater
nity so earnestly desired by all patri
otic Americans. It is to be hoped
that they will awaken a responsive
echo among the granite hills of New
England.—Constitution.

The remains of the late President
James A. Garlield, were quietly re
moved from the public vault in Lake
View Cemetery, to the crypt in the
Garlield monument, shortly after
midnight last night. The secret of
tho removal of the remains was in
accordance with the wishes of Mrs.
Garlield, who opposed any demon
stration or show. The new sepulchre
of the martyred President is access
ible to all. A strong railing will lie
erected around the casket to prevent
any one troin approaching nearer to
it than 10 feet.
