wIn our present enlightened and
unoppressive tariff, the wool of which
carpets are made, and which is very
largely consumed by the carpet monop-
olists, is taxed 2S5 per cent but the in
grained carpet is taxed 558 per cent
Thus the farmer has just one-hslf the
protection that is extended to the rich
manufacturer. He must sell his wool
in market beaten down by the compe-
tition of the cheap wools of Australia
and the Cape, and must buy his fimsy
American ingram in market exorhi-
tantly taxed by duty, freight and gold.
The carpet which sells in London for
fifty cents per yard, costs the Indiana
and Ohio farmer one dollar and a half,

lie blew no trumpet in the market-placo,
Nor in the church, with hypocritic face.
Supplied with can't the lack of Christian grace
Loathiug pretense, he did with cheerful will
What others talked of while their hands were
etill
And while Lord Lord" tho pious tyrants
cried,
Who, in the poor, their master cruciiod,
His daily prayer, far better understood
In acts than words, was simply doing good
So calm, SO constant was his rectitude,
That by his loss alono we know his worth,
And feel how true a man has walked with us
on earthl

BE.G0NsI DAYS.

I'm thinking of the school-house, Ned,
"When we sat side by side,'
And studied Wehster's spelling book,
And laughed DER Gilpin's ride;
And traded jacll-knives now and then
When not engaged in play,
And got our jackets nicely warmed,
How often, I'll not say.
I'm thinking of the roadside green.
OF every tree and nook
And how in sultry hours of noon
We swan in Pantry Brook;
And when upon the oasemant came
The rulers tattoo loud,
How each of us, in passing in,
Took off his hat and bowed
I'm thinking of the benches rude,
And desks so broad and steep,
On which we left our autographs
In letters wide and deep;
And where our first new writing-book,
So free from stain and spot.
We soon adorned, on every page,
With many an of-hand blot
Tn thinking of the "old slough" Ned,
And its waters, dark and cool,
In which we bathed our sunburnt feet
While on the way to school,
And where the youthful tadpoles lay,
Iu Spring-time, many score,
And golden lilies richly blooned
In Summer, near the shore.
I'm thinking of the forests cool
Where frs and cedars grew,
Aid where our feet in moses sank
As we hunted gum to chew.
And of the pleasant meadows where,
On many scattered tree,
We heard the red-winged 5lackbird sing
His song Of ''quonk a-ree:"

ly stolen themselves beyond the reach of
their victims, or the law. The millions
they have stolen from the people have en-
abled them to fill every place where jus.
tice ought to SIT, with things of their own
selection, and the law falls harmless at
tLeir feet. The great leading thieves,

checking the thing through with an iu-
pudcnce that would shame the devil.
With the ir retinne of hundred thou
sand or more of the very scum Of God :
earth,-the democracy Of New York
those men stalk abroad their victims.
without blush 'D.,~s'' Tweed, as he
is termed, a few years since was simply
an oversee: of lot of street bands; be
ing Shrewd, he managed to get into the
good graces of the lowest and most Wei
Gus portion Of the people, aud thus got
elected 20 position in the city government
where he has stolen TWENTY MILLIONS;
and by keeping himself in the good will
of the roughs and rcpeaters by securing
them from the law. he considers himself
out of the reach of justice.
Go the world over, and no other city
can be found where thieves and crimi
nails of every hue hold the honest people
in such a terrible subsection as they dc
