Some papers exhibit an analysis OF the
late votes in the National House OF Kepresen-
tatives on the repeal Of the duties on coai'
salt, tea and coffee, as If there were 10 De
found 10 that way some trustworthy lndlca-
ton of the opinions of members on the SUBJ
ject of protection. We cannot derive from
these examinations any clear idea whatever.
For though the duty on coal and ON sat is to
all intens and purposes a protective duty,
yielding in the aggregate for both products
less than a million dollars revenue, while the
duty on tea and coffee, on the otle r hand, is
strictly duty for revenue, yielding millions
Of dollars to tie Treasury and protecting no
domestic industry whatever, there is singu-
lar uniformity in the vote Of both Republicans
and Democrats on these diverse questions.
or the u Republicans who voted for free salt
only two appear to have voted against free
tea and coffee, while only six Of the 76 Demo-
Gratis who ivoted for tree salt tailed to put
themselves on record against the tea and cof-
fee impost. In the one case members voted
to repeal duty tor the benefit OF monopo-
ly; in the other they seemed to indicate that
Ia their opinion the time has come when
there can safely be made further material
reduction in taxation. Ii the Senate should
concur with the House in these measures the
Treasury would be cut off from a revenue al
most equal to the sum Secretary Boutwell,
will save if his most sangune antcipations
in regard to the success Of his new loan are
realized. Both Republicans and Democrats
must have voted in view of this fact. 1t has
been suggested that they acted without refer
ence to any particular principal whatever
trusting that the same Senate that saves theiI
hurting themselves with their ranking privi-
lsce repeats will be in like manner serviceabe
now. Eut perhaps this will not prove to be
the case now, so far at least as the iniquitous
duly on salt and coal is concerned; ii there
should be some further elaboration before
tea and coffee are put on the free list. Fol

GEORGE WARD WESTON, whose death is re-
corded in another column of this paper, was
the son of Edward Weston, late Of Fryeburg,
Me.
An early and decided inclination to scientific
studies shaped his education at the Academy
at Fry eburg, and led to course in the Chand-
Ter Scientific School of Dartmouth College,
where be e, aduated in 1853
1u 1865 considerations, especially of health,
induced him to acce pt position ofericg active
and largely out outdoor occupation in Buenos
Ayres. I0to his new home he carried bis love
for New England laws and institutions, and
spent his time and money in educating the
poorer classes, by which be was surrounded,
In the terrible visitation of the cholera in
BuenOs Ayres 10 1867, Mr.. Weston distinguish
ed himself by Christian aud philanthr0pic Ell
forts among the sick and dying, turning his
scientific education to noble purpose, with
maj ked success in the treatment of the sick, q
The key to his faithful and earnest life is GER
tainly to DO found in simple genuine piety.
Respec tins this wo may most trutbfuIly use
the language of a recent letter from South
America, from one who knew him Intimately.
He was staunch and consistent Chr stan
in the highest sense Of the word; not making
any show or Ostentation, but bringing his faith
into prrctical use for himself aud all around
him, believing and proving that pure and un-
denied religion is help to live IS well as q
help to die. Such life il rare and a great
gain to the cause of humanity and the interests
of religion. BPS,

HENRY WARD BEEcHER ON THE RFMovAr
OF Mr.. SUMMERTIME whole truth we suo-
pose, lies in thus, that, with all his eminent
excellencies, Mr.. Sumner does not know now
to yield anything to others. He does not know
how to have conscience supreme over him.
self without making it supreme over others
o'AeA''
1t is our opinion that M. Sumner in his for.
mer position was constantly liable to endapver
the peace of the two countries, and that his
subsistence into the body of the Senate will be
favorable to just and amicable settlements
Tt is feared by some, and hoped by others, that
a deadly wound has been given to the Republi-
can pa. ty. Ifthat party has SO slender bold
upon the country that the change of Chair

Is time that 1t be destroyed. But we have no

POISONED BY EATING FIsH.-A family OF
Oswego, N. Y, consisting Of five persons, were
taken suddenly and severely i'll, the symptoms
being similar to those experienced from The
action of some violent poison. The physician
who was called pronounced their illness the
effects of poison from moonstruck fish. He
explained that fish are thus rendered a dan
gerous article of food by being exposed to the
light of full moon while drying. and he had
noted numerous cases of illness with precisely
similar symptoms, originating from that cause,
in Scotland and some other countries The
illness produced, though rarely fatal, is very
severe, and its effects continue for some DAYS.
The common symptoms are headache, nausea,
with severe and exhaustive retchipg, heat in
the face and head, and sensation as of the
head and face swelling greatly, and not unfre-
quently attended with delirium. Persons who
have any desire to experience the effects of this
singular illness can crafty their curiosity by
simply exposing freshly caught fish of any spe.
cies to the rays of the moon for short time.
and then INDUCING their appetites thereon.
