Ih< Republicans Ihcmst Ives it is well known that as far as the m«j rity if the eoirmittee was eoueerneil.thev had agreed upon the bill substantially -as it now stands; tliat every moments delay was due to the non-action of the Repub lican minority; that everything possible was do&e to delay ami prevent final ac tion by the committee, aud then, when linal action could be delayed no longer, they asked for time to make a minority report. Time was allowed, but no repot t was made* aim finally the major ity of the committee gave their report to the press. This lias created a howl from the Republicans, who say it was not proper for the Democrats to submit untill the Republicans were ready, but the fact is, tliat there is no prospect of their ever being ready to make a .asit is impossible for them to agree up on a bill or report. Democratic unity The great cry that President Clevelan d's tariff iressage was to disrupt the Democratic party has - proven false; on thecoutrary.it lias given to the party a platform which eAery true DeMocrat will rally, while like a thunder-bolt ii lias rent into a dozen fragments what was left of the Republican parly. Every day in Congress some one of the supposed faithfull comes out in deferen ce to the demands of their constituents and denounces the war tariff that is sap ping the life out of the nation; makeing the rich neher aud the poor poorer Mr Cleveland read the signs aright and saw it was time for the true Democracy of the country to return iothe principles that made the party inviuoidte in the past and pre-eminently the party of the people; he saw tliat the country was groaning tinker the heavy burden of tax ation that was piling up a mountvnn of surplus in tho treasury and crippling every industry and he boldly performed what Ids great heart conoeived, and I>v this stroke cleared the way for the De mocratic party to retain power iu the country for an unlimited tithe. REPUBLICAN HISSES’HON When Mr Blair wrote his letter stag ing that ins name would notdepresent e t to the Republican Convention at .Chicago in June next there was great rejoicing among the Giant Contingent, the 306 ami their supporters, aud it was prod limed that now there would be a loving reunion of all the discordant elements of the grand old party. A few weeks'lias demonstrated the fact Ujat, instead of liaimonizing, tho withdrawal lias had a contrary eiiect. The frienbs of the various candidates commenced -«j.i . « -i ti • * • ICloirnu |.-» ..li.tttrvU fttlVU* ailed by each, when, behold! it is found that (here is really no u .ion of sentime nt and it will bo about as impossible to unite on a platform as it will be on a candidate. Tiief leading spirits of the Blaine wing of the party have becu in coufarenee and correspondence, and fearing that 'f not mi iteii they might be downed in the convention, have concluded to make a united movement favoring Allison of Iowa; mul it has gone out quietly to All the old Blaine managers that Allison is the man on whom the Plumed Knight’s mantle lias fallen. There area few of the old Blaine contingent who are not ready to be turned over to a new mas ter without a protest, and there is cou -eipiently quite a tempest raging. All the other Would be irwndiilates are up in irms. nub efforts are being made to un ite all the factions against Allison. A Pritilris sL>i*i*:u:a A printer sat in his office c! air. his boots Vcre patched a id his coat thread bare, and ins face looked weary and worn with care. While sadlv thinking of busiuoss dabts, old Morpheus slowly around him cerpt, and la for ho know it sad Icily slept; an d while sleeping ho dreamed ho was dead, from trouble and toil had fled, and that not even a cow-hell tolled for the peace-full rest of his cow-hide solo. As ho wan dared a uong the shades, that stuoke and seor r dt the lower hades, be shortly observed an irou door, that cyeakingly hung on hinges ajar, but the entrance was clos ed with a red-hot bar, and Satan him self stood peeping out, wate ting for travellers thereabout, and tints to tlio p assing printer spoke: Come in, my dear, it shall cost you j nothing, and never fear, this is the place whore I cook the ones who never pay taeir subscription sums, for though in life they may escape, they will find when dead, it is too ’ate; j will show you the place where I nv It them thin with red h-rj chains, and scraps of tiu. ami also where 1 eontd their heads with broken glrss and molted lead, and it of refpeshuients t eyouly think, terns IroiJ ing watei tor them t.; drink; there* tlio red lmj griml-otnuo to grind theii toes, and if they mention ti,. y d>n like fire, ill sew up their month.-- with rod-hot wild; and then, dear sir, you should see n!i,-m squirm, wnile 1 turn ihem over and cook to a nun.” vitu those last words the pi inter a vok,*, and thought it all a practical u»k<\ hut a! times so iea 1 did it simni inat lie cannot believe it was a dream, ami 0.t.-a Iks tmi.ks w t!i a dime ta. an 1 grin, of rlic laic of tli .se win, save limit tin, never pay the A ,ii..ter.“ !

I’. as. illy they think a spir. itrd foreign policy might ci hm metne surplus, and eveu render higher taxes necessary. '1 he opposition of a small minority of ttie Democratie party is oi like character. VVoiiderfall enough ts it that the Republican party should tqke tills ground of opposition, but it passes wonber that any man callin g himself a Democrat should opjiose this most Democratic, poliey-oppose it even at the iisk of dividing the party on so plain an issue. They go with *L/. .. publicans in ] relei ring, if tsxe3 must be reduced,to take them off fne u.iuce wssaiies of life rather than the necess aries. THE REAL PROTECTION 1 am in fiver of real honest bins fide protection-protection against all wrong and injtsntice-evcii against the injusf ice.wrong, and gross partiality now practiced in the sacred name of protec tion. ” I would protect all honest industry against being pi mile red in the interests of a lew wire workers. I would protect the great hard working mass of failing people against the traps and deceptions of the douse-; and managers. I would give the people an honest platform of honest qi juciples. I would cake the devil’s hymn and make it serve Goe—the false protectiinof monopoly and make t the trb-j ufot'e ctio ol the citizens. Who pay tariff taxes”? There is a dim hut false idea aflon in si me minds that somehow the ini-- poiter.the middle man, or the foreign | mjnfactnrer pays the tax.
