We have heretofore shown how protection taxes all the people of this country except the manufacturers, and how the latter are enabled to get at least 25 per cent more for their goods than they would reoeire under a pure con stitutional revenue tariff. From previous articles it was seen that no portion of the people were relieved from the high taxes of pro tection, but the manufacturers. These were not only relieved from taxation but actually received a bo nus of one billion two hundred mil lions of dollars. It was greater than this, for tlie protection amounted to 44 per cent. We compromised with the manufacturers by reducing it to 25 per cent, and upon the census fig ures given as the value of tnfir- prq- ductions, the bonus amounted in a singie year to one billion two hun dred thousand miHiotip of dollars. For each year this bonus amounted' to the same enormous sum. Now ae to the burden upon the farmers. They; the farmers, had invested In Cokbowdaj-bd; 1973. MlLUKDQKm;LE, Juys 7, 1887.

The farmers re ceived not a cent.pf bonus, while the manufacturers received, annually, a bonus of one billion two hundred millions. They received this, every year, while the farmers did not re ceive a cent of bonus from year to year, and the same immense sum is being received, year after year, by the manufacturers while not a dollar en ures to the benefit of the farmers. Under the present protective tariff the farmers are yearly robbed to lill tlie coffers of the manufacturers. Now we call upon the protective tariflltes to disprove this if they can. It is done, as we have shown in former artieJefc toy the high duties or tax put upoh nBarly every article used by the farmers while toiling hi summer's heat and winter's cold in tlie prosecution of tlieir laborious vo cations. Let us see how the farmer is taxed. He is taxed as other citi zens, for iron, in all its forms by the tariff tax as follows, 01, 88, 91, per cent; for’salt in bulk 78; for calicoes 53; glass 58, 80, 128; for paints and colors 09, 2!03; for molasses and sugar 52, 73, 98; for manufactured tobacoo 80, 119, 227; for blankets 72, 92,107; for knit goods 57, 98; for wool hats 57; cotton goods 35 to 00. We might go on andinentionliundreds or more articles upon every one of which he is heavily taxed. He comes in to be taxed up on every industry in the land. Upon those, specially agricultural, the tax is 9440,000,000;’ yet lie bears the bur den of other protected industries n- mounting to 9230,000,000. Tlie farm ers carry more than half of the whole load, which is one billion two hun dred millions. But this is not all, be sides carrying more than half the tax burden, he carries an immense sum that the merchants put upon their goods. The merchants add tlie tariff tax to the price of their goods, to save themselves, and the 8 or 10 mil lions of farmers have to bear that tax as well as the prices of tlie manufac turers. So that the farmers, in that way, hear a double tax, their own and the merchants. Is it any wonder then, that the farming class, who bear these immense burdens, should ns a class, be in a deplorable condi tion. Is not this a horrible state of affairs when it is universally admit ted that farming is the basis of a na tion's wealth and prosperity. Of all classes of our people, the farmers should be the most hostile to a protective tariff and instead, of be ing crushed by a hostile tariff law, should be favored and cherished in every just and reasonable way. At another time we will again briefly al lude to the wrongs done by the advo cates of the protective tariff. •OUltl u Sllrc publis Br*pg Hoover Quits Georgia. Madisox, Ga..

The soldiers from Maine ana NeVv Hampshire think It is pretty hot weather 'Hfi Washington and on some of the pa raded a few of them were overooine by the heat each day. But the ladB from Texas and Louisiana think it is very cold for May, and shiver and put on their overcoats. Altogether the health of tlie camp lias been good, considering there are so many soldiers here from various climates who have been subjected to changes of different kinds and to unusual exertion pndfl tigue. Still the hospital lias p'rO^u an indispensability of the camp and there lias been constant demand for, .the services of the Red Cross Society, '•which has charge of it. When tlie rain and wind amou ing almost to a cyclone struck city of tents on three successive noons, making havoc with camp aphernalia of every kind and buffet ing and drenching the soldiew, latter felt that tlrtV were having a’ ” taste of the realities of military life 1 on a war basis which they had hardly anticipated. The rain storms were quite disastrous, too, to the finances of the Drill. Besides iprirooflng the grand stand and causing other dam ages which represented actual outlay, they caused a postponement of the pyrorama performance on two even ings, depriving tiie Drill Committee of receipts from that source, and they also cut out a portion of each day’s programme, as tor instance tlie dress parades, at 5 o’clock, p. in., which would have attracted many specta tors. General Greeley visited head quarters shortly after the first storm and in response to some jocular re proaches about the weather promised that it should be good for the rest of the week. The General of the Virginia Brigade and the members of his staff express ed themselves as much pleased with the results of the encampment so far as their men were concerned. They said it had been a camp of instruc tion to them, many of whom needed such experience. The strictest mili tary discipline has been maintained and the troops have been requited to attend to every camp duty with ns much fidelity as though they were actually in service in the field. One of the officers also said that the En campment had been of great benefit to many of the officers. They were good drill officers in tlieir own armo ries but knew little of the duties re quired of them in the field. Some of tlie captains have had tlieir men up and in line at 5 o’clock in the morn ing, and no point has been neglected to give them all the benefit of instruc tion that a camp affords. The chief interest of the Drill now lies in that which nobody lias yet found out, namely; how the various companies stand in tlie competitive drill, and which will get the $5,000 prize. The announcement of the awards will be made by the judges at three o'clock this afternoon at the Drill grounds, with due. ceremony, and until this formal presentation no one hut the judges will know who are the winners. General Sheridan se lected the army officers who are the judges of the Drill and he will present the prizes to the successful competi tors. The famous Lomax Rifles of Mobile, it was thought, would be dangerous rivals for first honors, and indeed they were a superb company of men and drilled finely. > - - • ' ♦ ♦' Agitator O’Brien’i Condition.

I looked for it witli tlie nnked eye. It isn’t there, and tho chances of its appearance are very uncertain, in deed. Astronomers are doubtful about it. Many of them do not be lieve it will come at all. I have re ceived no official information from any quarter that the reappearance of the star had been noted by responsi ble astronomers. Should it make its reappearance, it would be an impor tant asfroiioniicaJ phenomenon, fl'id would be observed with great scien tific interest all over the world. Its value to astronomical study can hardly be determined except upon its own reappearance. “Undoubtedly it would be of great lvalue, and scientists would probably I lie enabled to ascertain its cause, j Should it appear it would lie made a special study at, tlie Harvard Univer sity observatory. Astronomers have but little authentic information about the so-called star of Bethlehem. The only reliable dates are those secured by ’Tycho Brahe, tlie celebrated Dan ish astronomer, in i572, who discover ed a very bright star in Cassiopeia, which was so brilliant that it could be seen with the naked eye in tlie day time. About 1200 there was a similar and there was probably one posed to play the old man a joke. “I I about 900, but there is no certainty will hide liis shoes; we will conceal < that they were the same. From this ourselves behind the bushes, and see j arose tlie idea that there is a star of wliat lie will do.” Bethlehem which appears every 315 “No,” said the professor, “it would I years or so. As to tlie belief that not iie right. You have money great misfortunes will occur upon the enough, just put a dollar in each one earth as a result of the reappearance Boys are often fond of playing practical jokes. Such may some times be done, but never to any one’s inconvenience. In one of our colleges a professor who made himself very friendly with tlie students was walk ing out witli an intelligent scholar, when they saw an old man hoeing in a cornfield. He was advancing slow ly with liis work toward the road, by the side of which lay liis shoos. As it was near sunset the student pro- j star, and then we will hide behind the bushes and see what he will do.’’ The student agreed to the propos al, and they concealed themselves ac cordingly. When the laborer had finished bis row of corn, he came out of the field to go home. He put on one shoe, felt something hard, took it off, and found the dollar. He looked around him, but saw no one, and looked up grate fully toward heaven. He then put on tlie other shoe, and found another dollar. He looked at it, and looked all around him, but saw no one. He then knelt upon tlie ground, and re turned thanks to God for the bless ings which had thus been conferred upon him. The listeners learned from the prayer that the old man's wife and one of his children were sick, and that they were very poor; so that the two dollars were a great relief sent to them from heaven. "There,” said tho professor, “liow much better that is than to have hid the old man’s shoes.” Six thousand women are employed in the London postofflee, who render efficient service. The Presbyterian General Assembly South met in St. Louis last week. The minority report of a committee adverse to the union of the two as semblies Nortli and South was favor ed by Dr. Snook, of Texas. Col.

The next one to be re-nominated and re elected will be a Democrat. if tiie star that is sheer nonsense. But just another word. There is no historical evidence whatever that the star of Bethlehem is the star which is said to have appeared upon the birth of Christ. The Bible speaks of it as the “Star of the East.” This could not have been tlie star of Beth lehem, as that did not appear in tlie east, but in the north. ” It May be the Opportunity of Your Life.
