render to European countries the

We hire cheap foreignlabor to con
vert raw materials into finished
products for our use, instead of
bestowing the employment upon
labor at home; doom a multitude
of our people to partial idleness;
reduce the general rate of wages;

compel shrinkage in consumption
Therefore our manufacturers re
quire a high protective tariff, be

Speaking of the Beecher- Tilton
scandal suits, the New York Tribune,
of Dacemhar 10Th savs.

Speaking of the Beecher- Tilton
scandal suits, the New York Tribune,
of December 18th says:
1T is not believed that Tilton will
ever press his suit again; he may make
q pretense of beginning another suitin
Supreme Court, but few believe that
the scandal will ever come up in court
again in civil form. Tilton cannot
get in the evidence he wishes on civ
il prosecution, and will probably new
er try again. He assumes to be anx-
ious to have the criminal Indictment
against him tried, on the belief, so his
council say. that his wife, when on the
witness stand, will tell the truth, or
that they, in examination, can make
her tell it. The council for Beecher,
on the other hand, hesitate to press
the Indictment because OF the uncer-
tainty Of the same witness. She
has, under various influences, and for
various motives, all of which to her
appeared good, told so many tales that
the council are naturally afraid of her
as witness. Hence hitch, which
may result in long delay of both civ
il and criminal suits and gradual
dying out of the scandal"

1t has been enormously stated that
some days ago the House Postal Com
mite requested from Postmaster
General Jewell answers to series OF
written interrogations submitted to
him. The mistake arose from the
fact that the committee have on sew
eral occasions held conferences with
Mr.. Jewell to get the benefit of his
views as to what course should be
pursued to retrench to an extent that
will enable the department to become
self-supporting. When Mr.. Jewell
announced to Congress in his annual
report that the expenditures should
come within the receipts he meant
what he said, and he is liz earnest, so
far as he is concerned, thatrefOrm and
retrenchment cannot be naugurated
too soon. The several conferences
thus far held have been with reference
to making Of specific appropriations.
This, it is thought under the judicious
management of the present head of
the department, will accomplish al all
events clean balance sheet at the
end Of the year, and not large de-
6ciency, The committee are also anx-
ious to have Mr.. JEWELS views re-
garding the franking privilege. He
does not express any, however, for
the reason that he has not long
enough held the reins to be able to
speak on this question with that GER
tainty which he would like to. He
thinks the printing of stamps is a
small item Of expense, but after all,
the system now practiced is that Of
one department, as it were, washing
the hands of the others.
The excitement and CONSERVATION
among crowd of so-called attorneys
here, in regard to the forthcoming
exposure in the Pacific Mail matter
increases rapidly. The indications
are that number of these gentlemen
will be detected in selling out the votes
of members whom they would never
dared to approach, and the chances are
that some Of them will get into the
penitentiary before the matter is fn-
ally settled. 1t is regarded as quite
certain now that number of Con-
gressmen are sold out in this way.

It may, perhaps, be impossible to
preserve the present forests, but if
on each farm a portion of woodland
were enclosed and sacredly pre-
served from the intrusion of cattle,
proprietors would find the arrange
ment greatly to their advantage.
They would have perennial supply
of frewood, for the absence of cattle
would allow the young trees to take
root, and the removal of the de-
cayed or mature for the necessary
uses Of the farm would give room
for new growth, SO that by the time
one generation Of trees WAS at an
end. another would be ready for
use Foresting, it is true. hos
lately been made a national ques-
ton, and several States have not
only passed laws against the wan
ton destruction of timber, but even
encouraged the planting of trees
by premiums; yet, without individ-
ual care and co operation. there is
serious danger that the country
will be more denuded of its forests.

ct (the civil rights billy would ever
be a constant irritation to the people
of the South. Chicago Standard.
Here the line of demarkation be.
tween the blacks and the whites in
the matter of civil rights is drawn Of
fensively. The whites are called '".the
people of the South, as if the blacks
are to constitute a class apart from
1.-The people, Equally outrageous is
the assumption that the civil rights
bill is an attempt to define and regu-
late the minutie ofsocial life" The
civil rights bill has nothing whatever
to do with social life, and the pretense
that it has is wicked fraud. We
have right to look for fair play at
hands of a protessediy religious jour-
nal. If the Standard is opposed to
the civil rights bill it is not because,
as it says, that bill would do more
harm than good to the race it is de-
signed to protect" This is the jesuit
zeal argument used by Democratic
White Leaguers, who were once the
defenders and apologists Of slavery,
and who would to-day rejoice to see
slavery re established. The Standard
says: The prejudice of race and
color cannot be overcome by law"
that it exists "in the bones and mar
row of the peoples" that ''it was so at
the North" etc. The answer to all
this is that no attempt has been made
to overcome race and color preliudic
"by law" The civil rights bill con .
tains no clause touching the question
OF social rights. There is, in fact, no
such thing as social right There
are social courtesies and social Gus
toms, but they are not in any instance
protected or enforced by law But
there Is no way to, attack the civil
rights bill except through forced
misconstruction of its provisions. For
if the bill merely enables the negro to
obtain recognition of his civil rights
| by resort to law, no valid objection
to it can be made. Hence the ex-
shareholders of the South declare that
the civil rights bill proposes to inter
fere with social relations, and towards
and hypocrites at the North echo the
false declaration. We have hereto
fore taken occasion to call attention
to the fact that the Christian pulpit
of the North is silent on the subject
of the frequent massacres Of negroes
at the South. We now call attention
to the significant fact that a portion Of
the religious press of the North adopts
the arguments of the White Leagues
of the South against the enforcement,
of those provisions ofthe Constitution
of the United States guaranteeing
equality of civil rights to negroes
/. Inter-Oeean.

It is generally known that among
many trades in Europe no work is
done on Mondays. DIR. Boyd, preach
ing on behalf of the hospitals of Dew
onshire, in Exeter, lately, calculated
that the loss to the work people en-.

trade alone by Idle Monday amount

When Alsace and Lorraine were
taken over from France they were
free from debt. Now the German
Government is in the market for a
loan on account of those two provinces.
1t appears that, beside the expenses
consequent on the construction of de
fensive works, considerable sum has
to be paid in the form of annuities OF
subventions for railway and canal
works. and these debts, il they car be
so called, will amount to nearly 81,

Large tracts of land in the South
Of France, which have not hitherto
repaid cultivation, are now being
planted with the kind of oak trees be-
meath which truffies are generally
found, and it is expected that each
acre of this land, which has of late
been sold for as little as s5, will yield
a crop of truffies worth EGO every year
The experiment has already been
tried in the Department of the Vau
cluse, and in the course of the las
twenty years 10000 acres, which
were absolutely unproductive, hav,
been planted out land are now yielding
a rich return.
