The saddest feature of tariff busi
see* ia, perhaps, that tbe people of
other coantries can not be robbed
by onr unjust law. With but one
nation to rob, tbe monopolies must
sooner or iaier feel that tbey are be
ing snffocated in a pent np Utica.
One of tbe worst tbinge about tho
tariff is its tendency to tbe
production of inferior articles. With
no competiton bat that at borne, oar
progress moat necessarily be slow.
It is an insignificant nation that can
not stand op and take its chances
witb the world.

The late Dsniel Manning account

tbe fact that he began early in life
to save money. He so adjusted his

which served biro profitably at every

THE MOOD OF THE CZAR
T* » 1‘oasculon of Absolute Power Le ida
to a Special Mental Diseaae.
De Quincey, in hia wonderful study t-f
the early Caesars, the paper in which hia
power of suggestive narrative and his con¬
trol over the resources of language are
pcrliaps ■seen at their best, is, so to speak,
driven by wonder at the wild willfulness
of his subjects to suggest that all the
Caesars of the Julian house were mad.
Caligula may have been, though his
symptoms, as recorded by Suetonius, are
ratlier those of delirium tremens; bat tho
theory which makes of tho grand though
sinister statesman, Tiberius, who gave the
Roumu monarchy its final impress, a man
of disordered mind in the ordinary medi¬
cal setose, will not readily be accepted as
correct. He was no more mad than
I’hilip II, whose private life was much of
the same kind.
It would, as we read history, be far
truer to say tliat power, when really ab
solute, so aleolute that the volition is
executive and tbe necessity for self
restraint is untVlt, produces of itself a
sjiecial mental dwea»>. which is not in-
sanity, txcause it would dift.iupi'iu’ with
the power, hut has at intervals, like the
passion of children, many of its external
Symptom-, and effects. Nero, the artist
aapenv. who was always seeking th*
Lini>o**aWo, and whom the early Chris
tians helievcsl to In- the veritable incarna¬
tion of evil, may be stud und-vubtedly to
have suffered from it: so did one or two
of the Italian tyrants of the Kennaissjmce;
tnd so, in our judgment, though it is a
disputable p>int, did Ivan the Terrible.
I’o ver of that sort, though it does ?H)t al¬
ways injure tl» mind—for several of the
Duhis and some of the emperors of
Iv-lhi were men of splendid sanity and
jadgcAmt—when it happens to fall to a
man predisposed by inherited tendency
or by drink, or by special solitariness of
nature, undoubtedly weakens the re¬
straining force of the will aud strength¬
ens impuL-s.- until many of his act*
iwmtilc closely the acts of mailmen,
llnlf tin- great sovereigns of Asia, if their
private lives were accurately known,
would be seen to have liad their chamc
