GREAT misfortunes can be borne with
patience, for we feel that they come
from the hand of God, and are designed
to fall upon us for some wise purpose
but it is so difficult to bear with meek

of life that nine-tenths of the people in
this world have not learned the art.
Little worries are perpetually assailing
us, and 40 sphere Of life can secure US

know all about these little worries.
They be in when your waking hours

Pulling Down the Ladder Oh which
tsey Rose.

A Mr.. Dana and a Mr.. Weed, manufactu-
rers OF axes at the East Mr.. Wallace, man
ufacturers of clock-springs; Mr.. Hubbard,
manufacturer of scythes and axes, and a
dozen or so more of manufacturers of edge
tools of various kinds, have been here during
the session, laboring with great zeal for a
further reduction Of the duties on foreign
steel. Every one of these men have made
fortunes in consequence of the protection
given to their manufactures, But for the en-.
couragement they received by the duties on
our foreign articles, coming into competition
with those they manufacture, they would
long since have been compelled to abandon
their business, if they were unwise enough
ever to engage in it. Now, however, they
imagine that by repeating the duty on steel,
they can produce the foreign article a little
cheaper. So they are quite willing to sacri-
flee every one who has embarked his capital
in the manufacture Of steel. Though their
profits are already so large that they have
been enriched in their business, they are not
satisfied. If they are SO anxious to have
the duty on steel repealed, it would be but
just retaliation to remove it from axes,
scythes, and other edge tools, in the manu-
facture of which they are engaged. In re-.
ality, however, Congress should not paw the
slightest attention to the demands of these
selfish "mOnopOlists.''

for beginning the work Of keeping the colored
voter fully enlightened as to the sophistry
and demagoguery Of Democratic politicians.
The platform adopted by the Democratic
party in 1872 has deceived not few good
Republicans who, having, become disguised
with such adherents of the Republican party
as have had hand in corruption, have voted
the Democratic ticket with the hope OF re-
buking the Republican party, and at the same
time consoled themselves for any seeming
yielding Of principles by comparing the plat
forms of the two parties in 1872 and finding
a similarity on vital points. The Democratic
party is the party Of false pretenses-the
confidence party-seeking office, not merely
for the loaves and fishes alone, but to gain
power TO give effect to ideas that have been
promulgated to the world by the bitter
Southern Democrats during the discussion OF
the Civil Rights Bill while at the same time
Northern Democrats gave quiet acquies-
cence in the bitter feeling exhibited by the
Southern Democrats. The platform adopted
by the Democrats in 1872 was intended for
snare. 1t was fully exposed at that time,
but, like the saw-dust swindle, the people need
warning upon warning in regard to it. Let
the great importance to the nation, involved
in the continuance in power of the Republi-
can party, be the inducement for our leaders
to put their shoulders to the wheel and to
organize at once for the campaign.

If this duty is finposcd now, to take effect
on the first of July, he states that this fact
will be telegraphed to China and Japan in
time for the opening of the market there,
and rs all the old crop tea--season of 1873
and lS74-has now been cleared from the
China market, and there remains none to
purchase, it is evident that no tea can be
bought to bring here on the speculation to
reap the benefit of the tax rs all the new
season tea will arrive after the tax has been
imposed,
To secure the benefit of this income with.
out giving the Chinese time and opportunity
to add the duty to the present prizes, elm
porter" claims that if anything be done by
the present Congress, it should be with the
least possible delay. If this advice be fol-
lowed, he asserts that just as the taking off
of the duty made no change IN the retail
price Of tea, so the imposing of it will pro-
duce no effect, but with this ditlerence-in-
stead of efiecting the ruin of our importers
and dealers, we shall get back out of the
Chinaman a part of that profit, which, two
years ago, Congress so unwittingly gave
them, and which they have, up to the pres
ent time, succeeded in holding 10 themselves.
Delay ruined the tea trade before. Will
Congress act promptly now, and not Oblige
us to go through another disastrous year, all
due to ignorance Of the subject before
tbon,
