THE SECRET OF SUccEss.-What is it In this codn-
try, among people who equally protected and
couraged, it lies in the steady pursuit OF intelligence,
industry, temperance and frugay. So far outward
comfort and competence constitute wealth there is but
fraction society who may not possess it, if each
will but turn his hand and brain to the vocation for
which his instinct and capacity most fit him. If the
great fortunes which dazzle the misudgng poor be
analysed. they will be found, in every nnety-nine of
the hundred cases to have sprung and matured from
calm, patient and simple toll which had an endurance
and faith behind and object and hope before it. So
too, with in whatever seeks 10 accomplish
A clown may stumble upon splendid discovery in art
or science; but fixed general law, provides that high
achievement shall require profound and ceaseess la
Dor. The price OF success, except in isolated cases
is the devoons of ones life He is fool who trusts
any dream for possession advancement unless he
connects with it the prudent exercise of his own en-
ergy and judgments. The little spring in the mountain
rock, becomes brook wide rolling river, and part
of the fathomless ocean, simply by busting steadily
and bravey forward -Ney Yorker.

different conclusion but the language of the act of
3Oth August, 1912, as regards the items of charges
which are to form portion of the dutiabe goods, is
precisely similar to that of the present law and the
construction put upon the former having been that
freight from the port of importation does not form
charge subject to duty, the Department, after very
full and mature consideration, does not feel author
lied now to change that construction especially in
the absence of any explicit legal designation of
freight dutable item, presuming that, Con-
gress of of the long practice of the
Department on the subject, its views would have
been clearly expressed respecting it, had the Legs-
ature intended that the change should be introduced
of including freight of the changes on which
duty was to be levied.
In addition to the construction thus put upon the
tariff act of 1912. and uniformly acted upon since
that time the records of the Department Show that
the question has been frequently brought to its
tenton far back 1799 under statutes of similar
import to the present one and extending through all
the subsequent years down to the present time and
Its invarable decision has been that freight to the
port of importation not item subject to duty
1t will be that the second section of the act
gives full force and validity to the certificate of any
one of the United States appraisers to establish the
appraisement of any goods, wares, and merchandise
required by existing laws at ports where there are
United States appraisers: and at ports where no
such appraisers exist similar validity given to the
certificate of appraisement issued by the revenue of
fcer to whom is committed the estimating and col
lection of duties, enjoyed by the twenty-second
section of the tariff act of 30h August, 1912. The
law is deemed to refer to the certificate of prnci-
pal appraiser or of one of the appraisers at large
appointed under the third section of the act hereto
annexed, and not of an assistant appraiser.
Although the certificate before referred to is made
conclusive evidence of any appraisement yet it is to
be distinctly understood that the law does not con-
template any relaxation change in respect to the
due inspection, examination, and other necessary
acts required of the appraisers in making appraise
ments in pursuance of existing laws and regulations
The regulations respecting the duties of the ap-
praisers at lage appointed under the third section OF
this act will form the subject of separate circular

at Philadelphia and that he delivered speech which
was well received and appreciated the offering of a
