IMMIGRATION.

If the present influx continues
until next January, as there is
every reason to believe it will, the
accessions to our population by
foreign emigration will be larger
than in any year since the republic
had beginning. A few figures
from the report of the chief of the
bureau Of statistics will give some
idea o. the enormous human current
that is now landing upon our shores.
During the month of April there
were 49,4l3 passengers landed at
Castle Garden, New York, Of viii ii
46.S21 were immigrants, or nearly
1900 a day. During the CORES
spending month of 1879 the total
number of passengers were "A, 1874,
Of whom 1901 gere immigrants.
During the twelve months ending
April 30, 1880, the total number of
immigrants to this country was
1886, and for corresponding
time in the year before the total
number was 86,9O5. During the
six months ending December 81,
1879, the total number of immi.
grants was 50, 1872, and for the same
time in 1878 the total was 42,471.
In the month of April just past if
1881 immigrants arrived at New
York, or nearly 1900 o day, it
would be safe to say that the total
landing at all parts of the United
States would not fall below 1000
per day. At this rate every e5
days enough people are added to our
population to give one additional
number to the house of representa-
tives, should the present basis of rep.
resentation be maintained. Or 20

district was without q single in
habitant, the arrivals for a little over
two months, the tide being detected
to this region would entitle US to q
representative. People can not
form much idea of such o body of
people, nor even of $4,000 or
$4,000. Those who saw large
bodies-of troops in the late war can
form some conception of it.
Marching, four abreast, 1000 men
would form a line at least mile
in length. nc. Fl. -. +,
Not only in quantity, but also in
quality, are tho immigrants of this
year superior to those coming in
former years. Very few Of the
pauper or criminal class are settling
with us, but large ma
jority Of them possess some little
means, and as soon as they embark
they proceed at once to the wild
lands Of the west and at once prepare
q path which shall after time lead
into the broad and smooth road o
prosperity. The causes leading to
this movement, which is in truth
an exodus, are we'll known. Every
year increases the hardships and
troubles of the European peasant
ry, and more than ever does Amer
lea present itself before their long,
ing eyes as an Arcadia whore all
their suferings will cease. We
have room enough for all, and every
patriot will rejoice to see the FOR
ests and waste lands of the great
west and south giving away to neat
farms and thriving villages.

THE TARIFF.

We are inclined to think Senator
Eaton has "struck it rich"-to use
mining phrase-in his proposed
commission to investigate tariff re-
forms. There are many reasons
why the tariff should not be tamper-
cd with now. Time has pretty
clearly demonstrated that the aver
age congressman, when turned loose
in the business interests of the
country, knows abou. as much about
them as Chester pig does about
the golden streets Of the New Jeru-
salem, and all his meddlings with
them end in injury. There is such
an unmistakable tendency towards
an early adjournment that calm and
deliberate action is not possible.
Again, the presidential election will
be distraetlng enough with
out casting another stink
pot into the political atmos-
sphere. The tariff and reve>
nue. laws are voluminous in the ex-
treme, covering about thirty-fve
pages of the revised statutes, and
in addition to their voluminousness,
are exceedingly complicated. 1t
has recommended itself to the minds
of the whole people that certain
changes are necessary, but how it is
to be done does not prevail with
the same degree of unanimity
Certain articles on the tariff list are
no doubt rated too high, and some
that are dutisble ought not to be so at
all. But, at the same time, it is
inevitable if the honor of the coun.
try is consulted that for many years
yet revenue largely exceeding the
mere running cost of the govern
ment must be raised, in order that
the interest on our public debt be
promptly paid and the principal
gradually reduced. Again, some
protection against the pauper labor
OF Europe must De provided, if
American manufacturers are not
driven from the field. The great
desideratum, therefore, is revenue
and protection and free trade
judiciously mixed. To do this a
body of men must be employed who
have the business of the country at
their tongues end, and time must be
given to deliberate thereon.
This want Senator Eaton's bill
meets. Il provides for a commits.
sion of experts, who shall consider
the whole matter, having every
facility given them, and report
before December, 1881. 1t is not
necessary that congress shall con-
slider this report an ultimatum and
Immediately proceed to pass it and
make it law, but their labors will
collate and systematic material
without which it would be impossible
to legislate with any degree of JUS
tice.

PEARLS GOLD PIECE.
Cred wins Z:

"Red wins ~
It was the croupier's hoarse cry, again
and again reiterated, only diversified by
that of cred loses % which broke the
stiffness in the superbly appointed room
at Hamburg, with the gaming table in the
center, round which was gathered its Gag
er votaries, behind whom were the scarce
ly less interested group of lockers on.
"Come away, my DEAR" said very
lovely woman among the spectators, in a
low whisper to her husband. II am sorry
we came. This is no place for Pearl, in
dicating with nod of the bead as she
spoke, an exquisitely beautiful girl, scarce
ly more than child of some twelve or
thirteen summers, who stood beside them.
Come, Pearl ~ the father said.
But the girl stood entranced, her eyes
fixed upon man s face seated at the farth-
est end of the table. 1t was a strikingly
handsome face, even when wearing, as it
now did, an expression of calm, born of
desperation. No tinge of color was in
either cheek or lips.
His eyes shone with strange and hard
glitter, and were fixed upon the balls as
they swung round, as though OH the color
uppermost hung his hope of life or death.
And SO it wasl He had sat down pos
sessed Of a fortune; he rose a beggar!-
Fate had pursued him with its mocking
hopelessness, until he had play ed his last
stake, only to see it swept mercilessly from
him.
! He half rose from the table. What more
was to be done, save to 60 out somewhere
| in the still night air, and send bullet
through his heart and brainp
It was at this moment the girl, with
flushed cheeks and half-parted lips. darted
to his side.
ssTake this, }" she pleaded, "for my sake, -
and pressed gold piece into his cold hand.
He turned. To his excited imagination
she seemed scarcely mortal, in her pure
childlike loneliness. His first impulse was
| to return her offering-he was not yet an
aln,s- aker; but again rang out the Group
Ter 3 cry of command to take the stakes.
The child stood hreathless in her expects
ance, her eyes burning with teverish inter-
est.
A sudden impulse overmastered him.
Without speaking word he placed the
gold upon the table.
The next minute small pile of gold was
at his elbow. He staked it all again.
Again he won. A bright spot of SCARLET
replaced the pallor on his cheek, which
spread and deepened as Dame Fortune,
who had persistently frowned upon HIM,
now reserved for him only her smiles.
Morning was breaking when he arose
from the table, no longer a desperate man,
but with big fortune three=fold returned to
him.
After the first winning he had turned to
return the Child her offering, but she had
vanished. Should he ever find her, ever
repay the debt2 He knew not; but stands
ing out under the clear blue sky, with a
great weight lifted from heart and brain,
