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. pert* io such things to aid them in the 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 at A. J. Lyndon’s Drug Store and get 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- 'tween us and the other nations. -Bat on the balance of trade and see that it j a Bottle Free.

Benj. Leigh. Gadsden’s Increasing Prosperity. Mr. Editor:—Gadsden, as a manu facturing town, is no longer a matter When a man is treating a dashing widow to ice cream, and sees his wife coming Into tbe restaurant, about all of speculation; for the ideal is giving coming into toe restaurant, anout an wav to the real, and the chimerical to j * 1 * * * * * * ? ca , n *j° 16 l® button his coat , bang to the substantial.

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 tant after visiting the Falls, the Sul phur and Chalybeate Springs, etc., and tbe day is- not far distant when this spot will be a trysling-place for lovers, the health resort for the worn and feeble, and a resort for such as love beauty and grandeur and have the leisure to eDjoy themselves. M. B. P. Gadsden, Ala., April 7th. 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.” DE-LEC-TA-LAVE.

As a consequence he has the most unruly school in the State. 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, and frequently entirely destroyed. 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. It is probably some satisfaction to a mule to know that while he cannot soar so high as the lark, lie can sing j ust as loud, and kick very much stron ger. A CITY OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN. Detroit, Mich., is noted for its heal thy, handsome ladies, which the lead ing physicians and druggists there at tribute to tbe general use and popu larity of Dr.Harter’s Iron Tonie. A decidedly big mining scheme is about to be launched in California. It is no less than a twelve mile tunnel for draining the entire group of mines in Nevada City and Grand Valley. The waterpower of the Yuba river will be used to drive the drills and propel the cars. The tunnel, where it enters tbe mines, will be 1,200 feet below thesur- race. 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 tion, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, 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 German Syrup cannot be too widely knowD.

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. JOHN W. WEEKS. Superintendent DeKalb Pauper Home, Decatur, Ga., May 1,1886. BRIGHT’S DISEASE.
