While Senator Blaine was speaking at
Saco, Me-, recently, he asked if any man
in the audience believed that he was over
taxed by the Government. A Greenbacker
rose and said he was. Directly?" asked
the Senator. "No, but by duties" was the
reply. "On what?" asked Mr.. Blaine.
"0n Matches" replied the man. How
many matches do you use in dayP" in
ouired the Senator. The man at first
evaded, but finally fixed the number, and
the Senator figured out that the individual
was being taxed in that direction, accord
ing to his own statement, just cents a
year. st strikes me-" said the Senator,
''that the Government may save you more
than cents year," and the fellow was
laughed down, but rallied far enough to say
that the duty on tea bore hard on the
farming class, but was shut up with the as
surance that there was no duty on tea al

the audience, and the Greenbacker suhsi

THE CASE OF Rev. Mr.. WILLEY.-.The
case of the Reverend gentleman above
named which was referred to in these col.
umns three weeks ago and which was acted
on by the Ministerial Committee appointed
a few days after that issue, comes into our
hands at this late date. Our publishing it
so long after the finding is attributable to
the pokinesS of the ministers having it in
charge:
SMYRNA, DEL, July %, 1879.
To Rev. Chas. Hill, Presiding Elder of
the Easton District, Wilmington Confer
ence.
DEAR BROTHER Your Committee ap.
pointed to inquire into the reports or COM
mon rumors touching the moral and minis.
terial character of the Rev. ]. H. Wiley, of
Townsend, Del, beg leave to report that
that duty has been performed having had
all the parties implicated face to face.
After a careful and prayerful investiga.
ton, we make the following finding:
That nothing criminal in his conduct was
attempted to be proven, and that there was
evidence only of some indiscretion, which
| in our judgement should not affect his
moral and ministerial standing, and we
| therefore recommend the case be dismissed
Respectfully submitted,

Hon. Hendrick B. Wright, in private
note to Pennsylvania friend, says that he
has investigated the cause of labor depres-
sion sufficiently to be able to say that moth
ing but reduction Of beer to three cents
a glass can restore the country to its former
prosperity. Mr.. Wright sticks to bis origi-
nal proposition that the circulating medium
of the country should be placed at about
$l25 per capita, including colored children
and Indians untaxed, but he feels certain
that beer must come down before there
can be a general diffusion of happiness

Our PROSPEROUS TRADE.-In addition to
the enormous balance Of trade already in
our favor, our reports continue large with
out precedent. The shipments from Balti.
more last week were two millions, from New
York seven millions, and yet the outflow of
grain to supply the European scarcity, from
scant harvests, is hardly begun. The re-
ceipts of cotton at the shipping ports indi-
cate that the new crop of cotton is coming
in and the expectations in this staple will
greatly swell the balance of trade in our
favor. There is no corresponding increase
in ourimportations and the difference must,
therefore, be made up in payments in gold.

California politics are greatly tangled-up
this year. Four parties are in the field
the Republicans, the Democrats, the
Honorable Bilks and the Workingmen.
There are but three candidates for Governor,
however, the Democrats and the II. BIS
uniting on one man. For the Supreme
Court there are four tickets, and for Con-
gress three, the II. B. being only concerned
with State affairs. All parties indorse or
tacitly accept the New Constitution. So
far as National issues are involved it makes
little difference whether the Democrats,
the Workingmen or the Honorable Bilks
succeed, for the antecedents of their candi-
dates show them to be opposed to Republi-
can ideas.

CHARLES 6. FIsHER.-The case of Charles
6. Fisher, formerly an Assistant District
Attorney at Washington, who was convicted
Tuesday in New York of obtaining money
under false pretences, is a strange and sad
one. This young man had an excellent
start in life, and good position in an hon.
orable profession, but he seems to have
tended inevitably to wickedness and crime.
He was convicted of completely in the
famous " safe burglary" case, and was par
doned only on the stipulation that he should
go to the Government Hospital for the In
sane, which was thought to be the proper
place for him. He escaped, and escaped
also from another insane asylum in which
his friends had placed him. Since that
time, it is stated, he has drained his fathers
resources by forgeries upon him, and has
now been convicted of successful attempt
to commit similar crime at the expense of
strangers. He was sane enough to have an
ingenious theory of defence, and to address
the Court himself very inteligently on the
first day of the trial. He even went so far
as to taunt the prosecution with various
delays in the case, and by so doing compelled
| the disclosure that these delays had been
in consequence of appealing letters from
his mother, who seemed said the counsel
"to be the only friend the prisoner had il
the world" But even such consideration!
seem to have had no effect upon the young
man, whoappears sadly perverse and utterly
beyond redemption. He was clearly righ
in the view that an insane asylum was no
the most appropriate place for him.-N. 7

Gen. Fremont's little scheme for turning
the water of the Colorado into the great
desert basin of California and Arizona, and
thus make an inland sea Of it, is held by
good engineers to be almost insanely
visionary. Gen. Stoneman says: 1t would
take river 1000 feet wide and 10 feet
deep, running at the rate of five miles per
hour 200 years to fill the basin; and after
it was filled it would require river $50 feet
wide, 10 feet deep and running at the rate
of miles an hour to compensate for evaro-
ration"

General Cook stopped at hotel in
Topeka, the other day, and in the hurry
of his departure left his wallet under the

wallet contained $500, all his available

when up ran Miss Mary Dugan, a chamber.
maid, and restored the treasure. The
General kissed her, called her honest
Mollie, and like good fellow divided.

Of General Washington's dislike for pro-
family picturesque story is related. In
the Summer of 1871 man who was
ploughing in a field near Fishkill road
became very impatient with some difficulty
in his work, and began topour forth violent
oaths. Just then three horsemen in military
undress, who were riding by, paused, and
one of them asking for information con-
corning the road, thanked the ploughman
for his answer and added: "My friend,
am older than you, have many times been
placed in positions of difficulty and danger,
and have had many things to perplex and
annoy me, but have always found that it
did no good to get angry; and that neither
broken ploughs nor anything else can be
mended or made better by the use OF
profane language" and with bow he rode
on. 1t was General Washington.

Something About Stairs.

AS pins have saved great many peoples
lives by not swallowing them, so stairs have
saved great many women's tempers and
health by not having them to climb. Three
days in week, at least, the mother of
family, who does her own work, must be on
her feet from morning till night-washing
day, ironing-day, baking-day-and in this
count, sweeping day and the day for general
housework is not enumerated. If her
working rooms are all on one floor, her
task is hard enough, but suppose her
kitchen is in basement, and her dining
room and sitting-room on the second floor,
and her wood-house a step or two down,
and her water likewise, the addition to the
labor required is simply enormous. A
house might as we'll be built on a steep
cerned, as to be built with steps from one
room to the other. The woman who does
her own work ought to have, on absolutely
one level, the kitchen, the pantry, the
dining-room, the nursery, and be able to
get wood and water without taking one step
up or down.
Some years ago we took q journey, and
during our absence secured a woman with
three or four children to occupy our house
and take care of it and the children we left
| behind. She was a woman who never
opened her mouth but to complain Of
something or other, and on our return We
began to dread meeting her and listening
to her various fault-fndings with what she
had had to put up with while we were away.
Our house was situated on the top of hill,
so that there was no trouble about drainage,
and all the rooms were on one floor, and SO
little raised above the ground that the baby
could roll from any one of its floor doors
without hurting it, and creep from the
grasses to the carpet and the carpet to the
grass without assistance. 1t was easy to see
at the first salutation when we entered the
house that everything had gone smoothly
and we might have staid away month
longer just as we'll as not, so far as the family
left behind was concerned. "This is such
an easy house to do work in," said the
woman. 81 can 60 around all day, every
day of the week, and not begin to feel 81
tired as do after one day of work in the
house I'm going back to-" And ever after
) ward when any allusion was made to tn,
time she spent in the house, it was alway
: met with her exclamation, "That is sucl
an easy house to do work inw
Perhaps, if that woman, who by the wa,

The BELLIES AT SARAToGA.-A Saratoga
correspondent of the Boston Times has
been watching carefully the girls from the
chief cities at this famous resort.
The Boston belle is always modestly
economical in her costume, with passion
for the Atlantic Monthly and contempt for
such frivolities as the open worked stock
ing. She dresses her own hair and frizzes
it. She goes to morning concerts, and
does not care much for rich men.
The New York belle studies the latest
arrivals, shows her foot at every op-
portunity, and is wide awake in exact pro-
portion to the moneyed interests of the
young men within range of her vision.
The Philadelphia belle is happy medium.
She is not as severely distracted as the
Boston belle, nor so alarmingly on the alert
as the New York belle. She wears pretty
shoes and stockings, and does not hide
them all the time. Her mits match her
costume, and she goes to the hair dresser.
In literature Harper is solid enough for her,
and she is willing to lay the magazine down
if anything occurs worthy of her atten
ton.

SHIPPING MILK IN BoTTLEs.-The Camden,
n. j., Standard says: "The Inconvenience
Salem county dairymen experience in the
shipping of milk in large cans, and the
liability of the milk to be adulterated
before it reaches the consumer, are we'll.
known, but it appears remedy is now at
hand. Many of the dairymen in the
vicinity of New York and Philadelphia are
now shipping milk in quart bottles, made
of flint glass, to the Wholesale dealers, by
whom it is served to the consumer. Asthe
bottles are filled at the dairy, adulteration
by the middle-man is impossible. The
bottles used are somewhat similar to those
manufactured at the Salem Glass Works,
and used by Mr.. j. P. Robinson in his bot
tling establishment They have an open
ing one-and.a-half inches in diameter, and
have patent stopper which can be opened
or closed in an instant. A dairyman in
Connecticut, who sends milk to New York
City, has seven thousand of these bottles in
use, and he has never as yet had bottle to
break with it. AS nearly $4,000 quarts of
milk are sent weekly to Philadelphia by
Salem county dairymen, this is subject
worthy of their consideration. A better
price can be obtained for milk when ship
ped by this method.
