Tboee wbo move oftenest generally have tbe leaatof this world’s goods to carry along with them. 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. Tbe Washington correspondent of tbe Memphis Appeal informs that paper that tbe friends of tbe Blair •dncational bill are snre of a major* ty in tbe House for that measure. It woald have bad a majority last session if Mr. Carlisle bad allowed it to come before tbe House. Senator Sberman made a speech ou Wednesday attacking tbe Presi dent’s policy of tariff redaction.

Gov. Gordon baa appointed Judge W. M. Reese, of Washington, Vir gil Powers, of Macon, and C. B. How ard, of Atlanta, tho board of commis sioners to mako the inventory of tbe Western & Atlantic railroad, under a resolution of the last legislature. This is a splendid appointment, and under the wise and just appraisement of this commission everybody ioter csted will doubtless be satisfied. The late Dsniel Manning account ed for his success in life mainly by tbe fact that he began early in life to save money. He so adjusted his expenses in other words, as to leave a margin on the credit side at the end of each week. Thus he acquired methodical snd economical habits which served biro profitably at every stage of his career. - «»> While Mr. Blaine is in Romo be may converse with bis Italian ac¬ quaintances on ruui and rebellion, bnt be will be cautious wbat he says abont Romanism. 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 tors, so U' sjKtik, pasoned by poisoned power, with as directly a« if tlK-vhad been oik* of the drug- whirh temporarily d»s- turti reason. r>r»Q«, wild an-l eominuous drunken- oe»i with had brandy, vas tlu> pmlis- powng cause in Peter th<* Groot, and. it *s bdieved, in Theetaw, and pit-hot>lv in the Em|-cror Ikdier. who, wise by day- light, laiusdf would in the moonlight occupy in jumping from battlement to battlement of lit- palace, eighty feet from ! the ground.
