HER ANSWER.
All day long she held iny question
In her heart;
tihunned ray eyes that craved an answer,
’.Moved apart:
Touched my band in good night greeting,
Rosier grew—
.Should I leave to-morrow?—early?
Then adieu!
Bent her head In farewell courteous,
While a cold hand gripped my heartstrings,
Held them fast.
Still I waited; still I listened:
. All my soul
Trembled in the eyes that watcheu her
As she stole
Up the stairs with measured footsteps;
But she turned
Where a !arnp In brazen bracket
Brightly burned,
Hhowed me nil glittering ripples
Ol her i-afr;
Veiled her eyes in violet shadows—
Glimmered whe*c
Cufved her mouth In sou compliance
As she bent
Toward me from the railing
Where she leant.
Ah! my love. * * * One white hand wanders
To her hair,
Slowly lifts the rose that nestles
Softly there,
Breathes she In its heart my answer
Shyly sweet.
And Love’s message mutely flutters
To my feet.

I de ails of the schedule, placing the duty
; lower than the average on some ar-
; tides and higher on others, as they
1 would bear, according to their
i experience and observation in busi-
i ness. A statesman-like view of this
I great subject would be to keep an eye
ted time, given away. This offer Is
not only liberal, but shows unbounded
faith in the merits of tbi9 great reme
dy. All who suffer from Coughs, Colds,
Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis or
any affection of- Thrort, Chest, or
Lungs, are especially requested to call

A Tariff for Revenue Only,. and a
Tariff Only for Revenue.
Mr. Editor:—l have been requested
by a gentleman opposed to protection
to write an article on ttie above sub
ject. At first glance it would seem
that they are synonymous terms;
but there is quite a difference. A tar
iff for revenue only simply means
that no more revenue is to be collect
ed than the wants of the Government
require, under an economical admin
istration, and that no protection, in
cidental or otherwise, be allowed only
as the rale per cent, required for reve
nue may give. A tariff only for reve
nue simply means that no other mode
be adopted than a tariff on foreign
goods. The mode to be adopted for
collecting revenue very much depends
on the condition of the country, viz:
the amount of exports, imports and
revenue required. Where the ex
ports and imports are not sufficiently
large to justify a tariff sufficiently
high (witiiout being prohibitory) to
raise the requisite amount ot revenue,
then the tax on foreign goods would
have to »be supplemented by
some other mode, wuich I will not
now suggest, though I have a good
one in my mind at this time. But it
so happens that just now the condi
tions mentioned above stand in such
relation to each other that a revenue
tariff man (for revenue only) and a
protectionist cap staud on the same
platform and each claim that his sys
tem is in operation. How is this?
■Well, the amount of revenue necessa
ry for the Government now is so great
that, to raise it by a tariff alone,
would give all the protectiou that the
most ultra protectiouist would claim.
So you can plainly see that the man
for revenue w on id oe compelled to
agree to a high per cent, in order to
get the requisite auiouut of reve
nue; and the consequence would bo
that you.jouid see, for once, revenue
tariff men and protectionists standing
side by side in real harmony. But,
Mr. Editor, we have in the country a
large faction who are opposed to tariff
only for revenue, w hen that revenue
could be obtained in lull by a tax on
foreign goods alone. I need not call
your attention to the fact that of the
opposition to the repeal of the pres-
' eut internal revenue law, of which,
Mr. Editor, you are a component
part. We hear every day low tariff
men and free traders clamoring for are-
peal of the "abomiuable war measure”
whereby the tax payers of the Country
may be relieved of heavy burdens
during these limes of peace; and in
the next breath they w ill tell us that
they are opposed to the repeal of the
internal revenue law—which, Mr. Ed
itor, is the only war measure now of
force. A tariff tor revenue is a peace
measure. I want to show the oppress
ed tax-payers the enormous burdens
they have deeu carrying for the last
24 years under the operations of that
abominable internal revenue war
measure. Here it is, my countrymen:
The amount collected from the time
the preseut system was organized
(July 1st, 1862,' up to June30lh, 1S86—
a period of 24 years—is f3,438,290,455;
an average per year of *143,362,852; per
day, $392,500; per hour, 816,354; per
minute, S272; per second, *4.50. So
you can see that, whether asleep or
awake, day and uight, Sunday Includ
ed, we are payiug four and a half dol
lars per second. Under that abomin
able law a tobacco chewer can taste
the money in every squirt of the to
bacco juice, and in the smoke the
smoker cau see the money Hash up at
every puff of his pipe or' cigar. Oh,
how much louger will the people pay
tribute to this silver-shod horse of
’ despotism that is trampling on and
crushing out the liberties bequeathed
to us by a patriotic ancestry. Ah, Mr.
Editor, cau the people think you sin
cere in your declarations of sympathy
for their oppressed condition when you
.. so persistently refuse to give them re
lief by the repeal of that infamous
{ .measure? Now, Mr. Editor, I will an
swer your question, put some time
^ ’ since, by asking you one. You want
to know how I cau reconcile my tem
perance principles with my advocacy
of the repeal of the whiskey law. Here
is, my question: Is the opposition by
the whiskey ring, and every internal
revenue officer in ibis btoad laud to
the repeal of the internal revenue law,
made for the purpose of promoting
temperance? Tnen, if so, I, in my op
position to the internal revenue law,
may be promoting the cause and king
dom of the “whiskey devil.”
Nowq assuming that the internal
revenue law is repealed, I propose to
make suggestions as to the mode and
manner of raising revenuefor the Gov
ernment. The Ways and Means
Committee, I think, would have but
little difficulty in ascertaining what
to do for the best—both for the treas
ury and the people. The House of
Representatives might by a resolu
tion, or the Ways ami Means Commit
tee in a.body, or by a sub-committee
of its own, get all tbe information
from the Secretary of the Treasury
necessary to proceed in fixing tLe
schedule. The first question to be
asked would be: “Mr. Secretary,
what is the approximate amount of
the annual exports of the country?”
His answer would be, I assume:
“$750,000,000.” “What articles would
you suggest to be put on the free list,
and their probable value?” After
naming tbe articleshe probably would
say $150,000,000. This amount'of free
list of $150,000,000 would have to be
deducted from tbe exports, $750,000,000,
which would leave $600,000,000 with
which to buy foreign goods and upon
which a revenue would have to be'
paid in order to get the money to meet
the derpands of the Government. The
third question would be: “About
what amount, Mr. Secretary, will he
necessary to meet the demands against
the Government for the next fiscal
year?” The answer would be: “About
$270,000,000.” Now the committee
would have a basis to go to work on.
Here is the 5600,000,000 net exports,
which, at 45 per cent, duty, would
raise the money required, $270,000,000,
and leave a clean balance sheet -be-

Gadsden’s Increasing Prosperity.
Mr. Editor:—Gadsden, as a manu
facturing town, is no longer a matter

widow to ice cream, and sees his wife

theywould then levy 50 per cent., and
that percen’. would only require the
Importation of, ^OjOCOJipOofgoodJ,
which would jive us fStfjOOOjOw as a

speculator of the past must soon con
front the sturdy manufacturer and the
brawny wealth-producer, who lay hold
upon real estate to stay.
The contract for the excavation and
foundations of the new hotel was let
to Major Carlisle for $2,500, who agreed
to complete it within thirty days.
Work is being pushed rapidly under a
force of thirty hands. The drawings
and photographs of this house are now
before tbe public, and the verdict is—
“splendid.”
The Anniston and Gadsden Railroad
corps are at present within the city
limits, aud as soon as the right-of-way
is fixed the bridge across the Coosa
will begiu.
The corps of the Baltimore, Bir
mingham and Gulf Railroad are also
here, having run a line from Leeds to
this point. The current belief on the
streets is that this road is being sur
veyed under the direction of the pres
ent management of the East Tennes
see system. The engineers say the
bosses mean business, as the survey
will continue through C4eorgia and
Florida to deep water on the Gulf.
The Anniston road will connect here
with the Carlisle, and under one man
agement will be completed toGunters-
ville.
The town now has electric lights,
and the shops and hotels present an
improved appearance.
The City Council at its last weekly
session had undfer consideration the
question of sewerage and drainage,
and while no definite action was ta
ken, the majority of the board was de
cidedly in favor of having the grades
of the streetB established, and some
estimate of cost given. The city has
authority to expend $50,000 for sewer
age.
Visitors and prospectors are exul

and tbe day is- not far distant when
this spot will be a trysling-place for

and feeble, and a resort for such as
love beauty and grandeur and have
the leisure to eDjoy themselves.

Peculiarities of Steel.
Boston Budget.)
Steel is queer stuff. That a metal
should he in such common use in
which are to be found so many val
uable characteristics iu its normal
condition, and which can be changed
by heat or cold to appear like a new
something, entirely different in char
acter, and still its vaiue be enhanced
incalculably by the change, seems
marvelous. That the hard pieces of
steel Which resist all efforts to cut
them with chisel or file, may be soft
ened by simple heating and cooling, so
that they may be cut and worked and
engraved into all the thousand shapes of
utility and beauty in which steel may
be found in tool-rooms and vaults of
our busy manufacturers, and that when
the work is all put on, the same pieces
may he reheated and cooled, and made
thereby so hard that no tool which
cut them before will mark them—made
so hard even as to cut glass like dia
monds, is wonderful.
Bear it in mind, that it is the peo
ple of a town, not its natural advanta
ges, that build it up and makes the
place progressive and prosperous.
Pluck and energy overcome obstacles;
greed aud the want of energy will kill
the most promising locality. Don’t
croak! It does not bring a $1 worth
of business in a year; in fact, it drives
away customers and those who would
abide with us. Give a helping hand
and voice to every movement for the
general good. If there is a public
meeting, go to it. You need not make
a speech, but your presence will show
that you recognize tbe fact that you
know you have interests and rights
aufi that you are determined to main
tain them. Always remember that
,each one can do a little. ,
Some prospectors in West Virginia
found signs of natural gas on a farm
belonging to an old man, and they
went to his house and asked permis
sion to bore and try further develop
ments.
“What’s the gas good for?” he ask
ed.
“To take the place of fuel.”
“Will it take the place of wood?”
“Oh, yes!”
“Then you can’t bore a darn bore
around here. I’ve got five stopping
big sons who are too infernal lazy to do
anything more'n cut wood enough to
warm their shins; and if we had nat
ural gas to burn, I’d have to hire a
nigger to help the boys draw their
breath.”
An old Alabamian, who discovered
the Birmingham ore away before the
war, took some specimens of it to New
York and displayed them to Peter
Cooper. “We can take that ore right
off the ground," said the Alabamian
proudly. “I don’t believe it." replied
Mr. Hewitt, the present Mayor, who
was standing by in the capacity of
Mr. Cooper’s son-in-law. “Why
not,” asked the discoverer of the ore.
“Because, if you can," said Mr. Hewitt,
who was younger and a little plainer
in speech then than now, “why the
blazee don’t you do it ? There is mon
ey in every ounce of it."
The other evening the little daugh
ter of a rich man was paying a visit at
a neighbor’s, and the respective moth
ers were talking of physiol ailments
and their remedies. After awhile the
little girl saw an opportunity to make
a remark.
“My papa,” she said, “always drinks
whiskey when he is sick.”
Then she stopped for a minute, her
eyes softened and saddened, and she
continued slowly:
“And poor papais sick nearly all the
time.”

The breath of achronic catarrh patient
is otten so offensive that he cannot go
into society and he becomes an object
of disgust. After a time ulceration
sets in, the spongy hones are attacked,

A constant source of discomfort is the
drippingof the purulent secretions into
tbe throat, sometimes producing invet
erate bronchitis, which in its turn has
been the exciting cause of pulmonary
disease. The brilliant results which
have attended its use for years past
properly designate Ely’s Cream Balm
as bv far the best, if not the only real
cure for hay fever, nose cold and ca
tarrh.

ASTONISHING SUCCESS.
It is the duty of every person who
has used Boschee’s German Syrup to
let its wonderful qualities be known
to their frieDds in curiDg Consump

Pneumouia, and iu fact all throat and
lung diseases. No person can use it
without immediate relief. Three
doses will relieve any case, and we
consider it tbe duty of all druggists to
recommend it to tbe poor, dying con
sumptives, at least to try one bottle,
as 80,000 dozen bottles were sold last
year, and no one case where it failed
was reported. .Such a medicine as tho

COULDN’T HEAR IT THUNDER.
An interesting letterfromMr.Joiin W
Weeks, superintendent of DeKalb Pau
per Home:
From a feeling of gratitude and a'de
sire to benefit others, I voluntarily make
this statement. I have great reason to
be thankful that I ever heard of B. B. B.,
as I know what a blessing it has been to
me. I have suffered with Bronchial Ca
tarrh for a nnmbei of years. Six months
ago I was taken with severe pain in right
ear, which in a few days began to dis
charge matter, with terrible and almost
unbearable palpitation and all soits of
noises in my head. In ten days aftei
the commencement of discharge and
pain in my ear I began to grow deaf
and in six weeks l was so deaf that I
could not hear thunder. I was then com
pelled to use a conversation tube, and it
was often that I could not hear with tbe
tube. I then commenced taking B. B. B.
and the running of my ear ceased
In fire weeks, and I can now hear with
out the tube. My general health has
improved, palpitation ceased, and feel
like a new being, and appreciate the ben
efit I have received fron B. B. B. (made
in Atlanta, Ga.) With gratitude to God
and thankfulness to the Proprietors for
such a medicine I cheerfully recommend
it to all who are afflicted with deafness
and catairh. Try it; persevere in its use
and you will be convinced of its value.
