The SILVER BILL.

Should the Silver Bill pass the Senate, which
now seems likely, even before the holidays 1t is
doubtful if it receive the signature of the Presi
dent, and it may go back with vete unless modi
fed to a considerable extent; for while the Presi-
dent, in his message, has so far mod fed his "god
coin basis" as to admit that restricted crcula
ton Of silver NAV be of advantage to business
| circles, doubt if he is ready to sanction bill
like that now before the Senate, which gives that
metal basis for much more extensive circula-
ton and influence in the financial and trade inter
ests in country STILL this bill is a sort of modi-
fed Anti Resumption act which, in some parts Of
our country, and especially in the West and
South pacifes both parties to this question Ia
go-between, as it were,) and places the Presi-
dent in rather an unenvoos position and with
his own State strongly for it, and his next best
friend-Stanley Mstthews-supporting it, | am
not but that he will at least let ii become
law, as it would in ten days after passage even
without his sign manual.

Protection for our Forests.

Our American woodman does not spare
the trees. Deaf alike to the voice of senti-
ment and utility, he goes on chopping
and to chop with perfect recklessness
with none to modest or make him afraid.
If he doesn't let up a little the day is
fast coming when we will wake up as a
country to fnd that we have lost our
..boundless contiguity OF shade" with its
attendant advantages. Win he let up?
Not if he can help it, Can he be made
TO let up? The American Nurserymen's
Association proposes to, find out
Last week there was referred to the
Committee on Agriculture OF the Senate a
petition of that Association, for the APP
pointment of commission to examine
the condition of the forests of Europe,
study the means 10y which their periec
ton was reached. and to report As to the
influences of forests upon the climatic
conditions of the land. The inquiries are
not new, and various scientific bodies OF
the country have already answered some
of them.
Our Albany Institute, if we mistake
not, was favored year or two since,
with an interesting and valuable paper on
the subject. We call attention to what is
now being done IN The matter as another
proof that our people are growing in their
appreciation of the value of forests, and
in their determination TO afford them the
necessary protection. The Nurserymen's
Association point to the fact that the for
ests OF the United States are rapidly dis
appearing. and declare that unless some
enlightened system Of forestry is speedily
adopted the land will soon he naked. They
further declare that it is not impossible
to change the great American Desert ''in-
TO a land of trees and warehouses;. and
summon the talents and ingenuity of our
countrymen to the task.
The figures furnished by the Association
speak volumes The total area of the
forest lands of the United States is $50.
600, 600 acres. OF this, 10000 acres are
taken annually by the railroads in order
to supply themselves with ties, while coo,
600 acres have to be cleared away to
meet the demand for fuel. Charcoal, for
use in iron foundries, calls for the strip
ping of 5000 more acres. The consump-
ton in lumber is 100000 acres Not
further TO multiply figures we may say,
In q word, that at this ratio, even allowing
for reasonable percentage of forest TO
renew itself. the grand total of $50. 900, 900
will be exhausted inside OF seventy years
In view of these statistics, which have
been carefully gathered, it is quite appar-
ent that the Association is justified in be-
ing alarmed at the timber waste which is
constantly going on. The Louisville
Courier-Journal in commenting upon the
action of the Association, calls attention
TO the fact that in some of the Western
States, where prairie land abounds, the
people have begun to provide for a supply
of timber by planting trees in the spring
of each year, premiums being offered by
the State governments for the largest
planting. The subject is one of growing
importance, and cannot be called to the
attention of the people too frequently

Fall and Winter Fashions,

RETICULEs.-The ld-fashioned reti-
cule is in style again, made of silk or
velvet to match the costume, and hung
on the wrist by handsome cords.
CoLLARs.-Broad collars of pale blue,
rose or cream.cOlored foulard are made
to wear with dark dresses. The wide
Anne of Austria cuffs covering the
sleeves are OF the same foulard. These
make a handsome facing for duchesse and
other point lace, though the coloTed coli
lars and cuffs are also worn.
The HAIR.-The Recamier style of
hair dressing is a iavOrite autumn mode
In this the hair is combed up from the
nape of the neck, and a pouf Of curls is
placed at the top of the head. The hair
in front is also combed upward, but the
fringe over the forehead remains, and
may hang cut straight across like a
child's or be arranged in light i%rizzcs,
BONNETs.-The hair is dressed very
softly and with reference to the shape of
the hat. For the Crownless floral bon.

head. For the close shapes the back
hair is arranged in a fiat chatelaine loop
very low on the nape of the neck, or else
the chatelaine is braided in wide basket
braids of seven strands or more. The
materials for the new bonnets are plush
or velvet trimmed with satin. The
feathers and flowers surpass those of any
former season. The bird-Of-paradise
with its golden plumage, is the choice
for expensive boinets.
HATs.-Felt is especially liked fol

Helmet-shaped hats, like those worn by

Krupp's Latest Contract.

The news comes to US from Essen that
the Russian war Office has ordered an
other batch of 300 guns from the famous
factory of Herr Krupp. The cannon
will be employed doubtless to strengthen
the field batteries in Bulgaria, which on
many occasions have proved themselves
inferior to the Turkish ordnance, and
also TO replace the guns of the Guard
now passing the Danube, whose weapons
are said to be, for the most part, Of an
old bygone type. The Turks, a. we are
we'll aware, arc provided well nigh
throughout the whole OF their artillery
With steel breech leaders from Herr
Krupp's factory and they have also pur.
chased a large number of siege guns Of
the same pattern for tire defense OF
Adrianople, Erzeroum and Ksrs. In
fact, the Constantinople val Office showed
a good deal of discretion when it selected
an arm for the service which stood the
German host in such good stead during
their campaign in France, and partic.
ulsrly before Paris. Previously much Of
the rihed artillery in the Ottoman service
was Of the Armstrong breech loading
type, but lately instead of following Great
Britain, and adopting a muzzle-loading
weapon of steel and iron, the Turks took
the independent course of selecting an
arm for themselves, and how wisely they
acted recent events have shown. Despite
the significant fact that We were their old
allies, and that they have for many year
past come to this country to purchase
ships and guns and ammunition, they
seem to have been resolved to have theil
own way in the matter, and went to tht
Westphalian gun foundry for their can
non. 1t would not, perhaps, be unwis'
on our part if we acted in the SAINT
impartial spirit in a matter of sucf
importance. The last European war, a
the present one, has shown the value o
breech-loading cannOn in the field, anC
vet we are content TO go on armiDg on
men with muzzle-loading field pieces. |
is not, too, as if we had tried the neV
steel weapons and found them wanting
On the contrary, we believe there is no
at the present moment a single breech
loader in our service of the latest Krupl
pattern; we are quite sure there is nom
heavy enough for siege purposes such a
might be tried practically in comparison
with our own cannon. And yet we AT
