SUGAR..

Mr.. EDITORIALS your readers may not all be
familiar with the present tariff Sugars and its
effect on their cost to consumers, few facts may
be of interest to some of them.
Under the act last passed by Congress. such
grades as are suitable for refining purposes pay
duty Of Ia to pa cts per Id, while those adapted
to consumption or suitable TO use without
change, pay duty Of "a to cts per Id. The re-
suit of this is that the quantity of the better
grades imported is very small-by comparison
next to none consequently the entire commu-
nifty are obliged to take, with slight exception,
those clarified or refined here.
If this difference in cost (the amount of which
you can readily conceive would be immense in
dollars went into the Treasury. we should all
feel some relief in the knowledge that it con-
tributed to pay debt which would have to be
met in some other FORM and consequently. not
n matter of any especial consequence. But such
is not the fact On the contrary what duty is
now paid over the rates for refining grades, is for
the protection of few manufacturers in this
country; or, if the expression is objected to. for
the profit and expense of doing the work here, ii
being well known that Sugars arc clarified where
the raw matcrsal is produced which, as suggest
ed, we should get but for the excessive duty they
now pay.
Molasses, which can almost be called Sugar, rs
it is used as its substitute, pays but one rate OF
duty, though it may be worth Is or so cts per gal
lon. All Coffees, without regard to quality or
place of growth, pay three cts per ID; and Teas
though they be worth 80 cts per ID or 81 20 pay
Is cts. 1t is intended to petition Congress that
the tariff shall be so changed that all grades OF
Sugar shall pay one rate of duty-t being recol-
lcctpd that refner do not now nay nnV I'M onufop-
turers tax. The necessities of our Indebtedness
as a government will for long time require a
duty to be placed on sugars, which will, no doubt
be liberal protection to our planters in Louis
lana and Texas. Persons feeling desire to effect
a change in this matter will. no doubt. accom-
plish the most desirable result by comforting

Concerning suspension Bridges,

An examination of the cables of the
suspension bridge which recently gave
way at Pittsburgh revealed state of
things which cannot fail to excite alarm
in regard to the safety of other bridges
supported by wires. The cables were
originally composed of twenty stands OF
wire. In the one which broke only
eleven wires remained at the point OF
fracture, the others having corroded
away, and some of these had been re-
duced to the size of knitting needle.
This bridge, which had stood fifteen
years, was known to be unsafe, and was
closed to public travel more than a
month ago. But no one suspected that
the wires composing the cable were so
eaten away by corrosion as the exam
nation showed them to be; and the
question naturally arises whether the
same destroying process may not be in
progress in other wire cables, as yet un-
suspected of weakness.

Brazilian Turtles.

The size of these creatures may be
imagined from the fact that the hippers
and feet of one, in crawling over the
sand, leave track of two irregular
grooves, three or four feet apart, as
though a great wagon with cog wheels
had been driven over the ground. 1t is
an easy matter to find turtles nest by
this track. She comes out of the sea
and travels far up on the beach to lay
her eggs in the sand, digging hole a
foot and a half or two feet deep for the
nest. Professor HART. who was in Bra
Ill with Professor Agassiz, says that he
saw turtle deposit one hundred and
forty-three eggs in one of these nests.
The eggs are all laid at one sitting, then
covered up closely with the sand and
left to hatch. The eggs are rather
larger than hens eggs, round and COW
cred with tough white skin. The
Brazilians eat the eggs, and also the
flesh of the turtle. The creature is
captured in n curious way. Two per.
sons 60 behind it, and taking hold of
the shell, turn the animal on its back,
in which position it is at the mercy of
its captors, as it is impossible for it to
turn over on its feet again. The hun.
ters are obliged to creep up behind it
cautiously, for as soon as it is alarmed,
il thrusts its fore paddles into the sand
and throws it behind, so that if the pur.
suers do not quickly close their eyes
they are likely to be blinded.

He proved himself to be a clerical Bis
mark-a man Of courage, who, even if he
does gush occasionally in the order of his
religion teachings, knows how to hold fast
TO good thing when he has on laid his
religious hand upon it. Thetrustees who
didn't like him were incontlnently GUST
ed from the duties of the trusteeship and
kicked out Of the church, and, in their
stead, were elected three friends of Friend,
who is by no means friendless. Bully for
Friend. We admire him. His style
suits us. He does not stop at small i'm.

mos. charming, mountains of difficulties.
Nerve is everything in as well as out of the
pulpit. And Friend has nerve.
