The Amended Wool Tariff.

One Of the latest acts Of the Con.
gress recently adjourned, was modi6
cation Of the wool tariff, by which the
duties heretofore levied were reduced
ten per cent At present prices this
modification will amount to two or three
cents per pound, and VIC may look for a
reduction in the price Of imported
woods accordingly, as tho orders now
out are unusually large, and manufac-
turers can for awhile dictate prices.
The amendment to the wool tariff
was made morc at the dictation Of po-
litical leaders, than from any actual or
apparent necessity Of any interest. Both
political parties seemed at loss for
capital upon which to run the incoming
Presidential campaign; and as the ill.,
tcrcsts of no one class, or all tho class
es, as to that matter, arc allowed to in.

wool tariff was tinkered at-and would

The prospects are favorable for very
good yield Of wheat. although it will
not be so great as has been anticipated.
In those localities where the growth of
straw is large. the rust has already ap-
reared, and its effects are clearly dis.
tinguishab!e. The kernel will be
shrunken and in many cases the heads
will be badly blighted. This is more
generally true of those fields which
have been cultivated for long time.
New land, although the straw docs not
in all cases grow so rankly,wil produce
r,uch the best wheat. Recent rains,
succeeded by hot and cloudy weather,
are producing unfavorablc effects, and
fears arc entertained that the crop may
vet be much more seriously injured.
The oats "re generally heavy and

without damage from wind or rain, much

realized. Barley is large growth and

A MouMiflcQnt Echo.

hotel keeper who has mountain about
a quarter Of mile from his house, AN d
it occurred to him that it would be q
good idea that if he could fix things SO
that magnificent echo could be heard
from tho mountain by persons who
stood at his hotel and halioed. So he
engaged a boy to sccretc himself behind
a clump of trees, with orders to repeat
the words Of any one talking on the
roof of the hotel. After practicing
to make sure, the landlord announced
one day his discovery of the echo, and
took up a lot Of people to enjoy it.
They called for half an hour, but no
echo responded. At last, when the
landlord had become crimson with rage
and was about give in, the echo came,
but not in the shape expected. It said {:

Extract from the Notebook If

Living in a community where the
fathers have grown rich by lives oftirc-
less industry, and the cffeminatc sons
ride to school in easy carriages, or re-
main at homo because tho day is too
warm or too rainy, it becomes very ca
sy why the wheel Of fortune rcvolves
so rapidly in the United States.
How many ofthesc boys had wealthy
grandsires? Scarcely a single one.
How many Of their grandsons will in
herit wealth About as many.
DR.. Holland has told us, somewhere,
that one Of the greatest benefits result
ing from financial disaster is the saw
ing a large crop Of young men. Must
this needs be SO? Must these boys
grow up indolcnt, incapable, and shift
less, instead Of being the more careful
ly trained in view Of the responsible.
ties with which their social position in.
vests them?
In Europe the heir to titles and c.
tates is taught to endure hardship, and
thus strengthen his physique sufficient
ly to sustain the burdens and important
duties which manhood will bring him.
It is maxim, among English students,
that "a gentleman should have more
courage and endurance than cad."
In this land, Of which labor is the
cornerstone, too many young men re-
gard wealth as merely the representa-.
tive Ut shade in warm weather and shell.

The father, absorbed in hcapins W
riches, scarcely ever has time to looi

Treatment OF Cholera By Hyp0.
l1eFlnic Injection.

Dr.. Patterson, superintendent of the
British Seamcn's Hospital, Constanti-
nople, gives an account of his expert
ments in the treatment Of cholera by
the hypodcrmic injection Of morphine.
During the recent severe epidemic the
usual remedies had been tired by him
self and colleagues with very little eff;
feet, and, as last resort, a case which
had been given up as incurable was Sc
lected for experiment. This patient
had been previously suffering from in
Illumination Of the liver, was in deer
collapse, pulselcss, with rice water purg
irs, severe vomiting, ana cramps. A
quarter Of grain Of acetate Of NOR
phine was introduced, with a result fa1
beyond expectation. In a quarter o
an hour the cramps and vomiting ceas
ed, the patient fell aslecp,thc skin grad
ually became warm and moist, and thu
pulse returned. After two hours tn,
injection was repeated, and he again slcp
for three hours. He lived three weeks
but ultimately sank from typhoid ex
haustion, as much produced by his oil
liver complaint as from the reactionar,
fever. The same good results FOLLOWED
in almost every case Of trial. In ordi
nary cases one or two injections Of from
one-quarter to one-half a grain sufi
ced. 1t could he administered even t,
very young children, in doses Of prope
magnitude.
After the satisfactory result of thi
experiment the treatment Of choler
patients in the hospital was con6ne
almost entirely to that in question, an
