rest of the world. To make the meaning
palmer, by levyius a duty or all raw cot
ton leaving the country, thu price Of raw
cotton is kept down, and the poor get
more of it when il is manufactured, be-
cause it is cheaper than it would be if the
people of Europe could compete for it
with Americans. To show how this
would work in England, l have heard
coal taken as an example. of" say the
Americans, ''you laid such "a tax upon
coal leaving your country as would keep
1t all at home, the price at home would
be lower, your poor would get better
fires, and, at the same time, their rivals,
the poor of other countries, would not be
able to compete with them so closely in
the manufacture Of articles in which coal
is chiefly used"
There is a very active free-trade pro-
paganda going on in the Union. chiefly in
the large towns Of the Eastern States, but
the working-clasSes regard the movement
with great distayour. They say that the
chief faIIacy of the free-traders consists
in their perslstently regarding articles of
comparative luxury as being equally ne
cessary for The community with the bare
necessities of life. For instance, so long
as bread and meat are cheap, it is to a
poor MA relatively unimportant what
price must be paid for ivoryhandIed knives.
All must eat, they say, but let those who
wish to cut their food up "eltgantIy" be
content to pay for the luxury.

AMUSING SCENE IN CoURT.-In n of
the New Orleans Courts recently a negro
was called as a witness. The Judge, who
is noted for his auSterity, held out the
book and the witness was sworn, and was,
Of course, expected to kiss the book.
But the witness was unused to criminal
proceedings, aud entertained curious ideas
OF the manner and prOpriety of swearing,
and stood erect. "VYhy don't you kiss2"
demanded the magistrate. "Sar!" CANT
you going to kiss p was. again inquired.
"Sar!' repeated the astonished darkey,
evidently installing the meaning Of the
Court, and surprised beyond measure at
such an invitation. "Kiss, | tell you !"
Numbered the judge. eyes, sar yes,
sar!" exclaimed the frightened and trem-
bling darkey, nerying himself for the con-
templated embrace, and without more ado
the long arms of the son Of Ham were
thrown around the judicial neck. and
before he could be prevented, a stentorMn
smack resounded through the courtroom.
"Take him off take him off," cried the
Court, while the loud shouts of the spec
tators testified their appreciation of the
fun. At last, however, the officers of the
court interfered, and the haIf-strangled
judge was rescued from the clasp of the
literal witness.--B0dGm0re Statesman.
