Secretary Cobb and Governor
Walker.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Times thus writes:
Mr. Cobb has evidently been greatly
misunderstood in regard to his views
of Governor Walkers course, and his
recommendations of the course to be
pursued toward him by the Admiuistra-
ton. He does not favor the removal Of
the Governor. While he thinks he did
technically exceed his authority in the
matter of rejecting the Oxford returns,
and does not hesitate to say so, he looks
to the motive of his action, and believing
that to be a good one, holds the error to
to have been excusable. Technically
wrong as he thinks the Governor was, he
bcIicrcs him to hare been morally right.
From the beginning of the crusade
against Walker in the South, 1 under
stand that Mr. Cobb has been constant
and earnest in his efforts to sustain him
in Georgia and elsewhere, always persis-
ting in the strongest terms that the
Democratic party could not stand upon
the policy of refusing to submit the Kan
sas constitution to the people, and that
the Governor in promising that this
should be done, promised no more than
every citizen of the South would demand
for himself.

The MormOnS.

The Philadelphia Bulletin in speak.
ing of the Mormons, says it Is hardly
fair to trust to the vague reports brought
by casual strollers or stragglers from
Mormondom, and too many of our mos
recent sources of Information from ia l,
quarter have been of that character
From the Desert Neacs itself, an entire,
ly official source, we gather that the ut
most evaporation against the United
States government was prevailing i'll the
land of the Saints two months ago, and
all information brought together gives
one point with the utmost clearncsS-
that the Mormons will not exist as 4
community having anything i'll commo:
with any other government or body o
men. They will be as isolated as Chi
nese or nothing. They will fee if ii
must be, or fight it it must be, but they
will not be meddlcd with or Influenced
With such Oriental ideas combined with
Oriental institutions, they have, during
many years of exclusivencss, acquired
all the vanity and seusitivencss which
naturally result from scclusion and /;
continual consciousness of themselves
alone. We have no doubt that the ma
jority of them are quite willing to be
m%artyred, and have very little doubt
that a community which has made such
strong military preparations will fight
desperately. In short, trouble of a We
ry serious nature is rapidly brewing in
Utah, and unless the United States
troops finding themselves too weak
should await further reinforccments
there can be no doubt that in 4 few
months the news from the Mormons
will be the great absorbing topic of the

MURRAY g. LANMAN's FLORIDA WA
TER from its great celebrity in the South
America and West Indian markets, for
which for twenty years it was exclusive
ly manufactured, has been extensively
initiated in the United States. Now,
however, the original article has been
introduced throughout the Union, aud
as it bears the distinctive trade mark of
the proprietors, may be readily distin-
guished by its externals from the simu-
lated preparations. The internal tokens
of genuineness are still more unmistak-
able, for Murray & Lanman's Florida
Water" has the odor of the fresh tropi-
Cal flowers and plants from which it is
prepared, and exposure to the air in
creases the delicacy of the aroma, in
stead of producing a sickcning e~fiuvia
as is the case with toilet waters scented
with strong essential oils.

The Fail of Delhi and the Re-
volts in Bombay.

The London Tnpcs, commenting up
on the fall of Delhi, says:
The loss of our troops has been in
deed severe, but not more so than what
might be expected from the magnitude
of the place, the desperation of the re-
sistance, and the length of time over
which the fighting extended. The eff
fects of the capture Of Delhi will be, no
doubt, immediate and complete. The.
neck Of the rebellion is in Iced broken.
The capital toward which the mutt
necrs iocked from every quarter, the
rendezvous to which they were evident
ly directed to repair, tho chief city of
the Mohammedan dynasty, and the res.
idence of the mock king who had ruled
in trembling state during the past four
months, is now in the power of a for
eign race where expulsion was the end,
and aim of this dark plot =
The mutineers have now no strong
hold: they are in the open, and ma't
meet our troops in fair fight. The IT,
suit cannot be doubtful. All that We
have to fear now is, that these desperate
men will form themselves into bands Of
robbers and plumber the country, elud-
ing a contest with us whenever they
ran. Indeed we must look to sec rob
berry, murder and incendiar:smi preva-
lent for many months to como. ,.-af- 10

The Tariff of 1916.

The tariff of 1916 went into opera
ton on the 1st of December, 1916, and
continued until June Both. 1857, ten
years and seven months. During that
period our imports were 81, 504, 16S, GIG,

ring that period our exports of bread
stufs to foreign countries were S401,-

earnings of which, during that period:
could not have been less than $780,,
