A Sectarian Distillery.


! About 800 years ago an ecclesiastic
named Bruno, who filled the post Of
Canon of Rheims, suffered so much
from the persecution Of his archbishop
that he determined to leave the religious
world and retire into solitude. He
found a lonely mountain near Grenoble,
and here he built an oratory with seven
cells, and being joined by some men
like minded, devoted himself to the
cultivation Of silence and agriculture.
The brotherhood throve; pious persons
were liberal with their charity, and the
culture of the neighboring woods yield
ed an extraordinary and famous pro-
duct. Bruno became the founder of
the Carthusians-an order who have
left their mark in almost every country,
as our own Charter-house IA corruption
Of Chartreux) and the frequent certosas
in Italy amply testify. Indeed, before
his death he had founded a similar
monastery in Cabria, though the insti-
tuition then took, and has always since
retained, the title of the Grande Char
treuse In our own time it is known as
one of the few hostelries still extant
where the visitor need not pay for bed
or board, and also for the famous liquor
sold all. over the world and manufac-
tured solely by these silent monks, The
receipt is concealed under the altar Of
the chapel, and each successive prior
solemnly admitted to the sacred secret.
1t is said that the institution, which has
lasted since the Norman conquest of
England, is at last about to be broken
up and that the brotherhood have
threatened to remove their monastry
and their manufactory to this country.
France is, of course, anxious to, be rid
of the various fraternities, ''but the
"Fabriquei of the Grand Chartreuse'
has peculiar commercial attractions
which the government is now seeking
to retain. The country cannot afford to
lose successful sectarian distillery.

For Irishmen to Think About.

One of the significant features of the pres
emit campaign is that Irishmen whom the Dem
ocratic party has always regarded as born into
its ranks are thinking for themselves, and
many of them are abandoning the party, in
which they have done a great deal of dirty
work without any corresponding consideration.
Col. W. P. Bend, one of Chicagos representa-
tive Irishmen, and president of the Union
Catholic library association of that city,
sees that he has been illogical long
enough. and has Joined the Republican host.
The Irish people, who have the best of reasons
for loving liberty, and whose presence in this
country is standing protest, as they acknowl-
edge, against oppression. have always SUP.
ported the party whose fundamental principle
has been the oppression of the colored race.
This Col. Bend believes to have been the re-
suit OF want of thought or information on the
part OF Irishmen and foolish willingness to
be led by the nose by any one who could COM
mand them. OConnell, the great Irish eman-
cipator, was opposed to oppression in any form,
and nothing would be more repugnant to him
to-day, were he alive than the principles of
the Democratic party as expressed by its deeds
at the South. The Irishmen who fought SO
bravely In the Union army are beginning to see
the danger that threatens in a surrender at the
ballot-box to the Southern brigadiers, and
hundreds of the more intelligent and Thought
full of them are determined to be no longer
cats paw to pull the rebel chestnuts out of the
fire. The logical place for an Irishman today
is In the ranks of the Republican party, which
has done more to defend labor, TO increase in
telligence. to enhance prosperity to protect
liberty, to liberalize society and to give every
man a chance in life, than the Demo cratic
party has ever contemplated.

Garfield the Defender of American
Industries

General Garfield has always been in Con-
gress and out of Congress most eloquent and
able advocate of protective tariff for Ameri-
can industries, and opposed to the Democratic
doctrine of ga tariff for revenue only
In 1874 Mr. Dawes of Massachusetts, chair
man for the committee on ways and means,
reported a bill restoring the former rates of
duty on iron and steel Gen. Garfield sup
ported the bill and fnully carried it. This
duty has enabled the iron and steel makers Of
the United States to hold their own against
have be en- kept open, and the American work.
ingmen have been vastly benefited.
In 1878 Fernando Woods bill cutting down
urgently pressed on the theory of "tariff for
revenue only" Gen. Garfield made an elab-
crate and vigorous speech against it, which
produced marked effect. Among other
things he said: 81 would have the duty 50
adjusted that every great American industry
can fairly live and prosper. The chief charge
l make against this bill is that it seeks to
cripple the protective features of the law. -
And he concluded his remarks thus: "Iet it
be remembered that % per cent. of all the
laboring people of this country are artisans en-
gagged in manufactures. Their culture has
been fostered by our tariff laws 1t was their
pursuits and the skill which they have devel-
oped that produced the glory of our centennial
exhibition. To them the country owes the
splendor of the position it holds before the
world, more than to any other equal number
of our citizens. If this bill becomes a law it
strikes down their occupation and throws into
the keenest distress the brightest and best ele-
ments of our population. When the first para
graph has been read will propose to strike
out the enacting clause If the committee
will do that we can kill the bill to-day" The
bill was killed the next day by the adoption OF
Gen. Garfeld's suggestion. The enacting
clause was stricken out by a majority of only
ID on total vote of 255, the Democrats gen.
orally voting in the negative and the Republi-
cans in the affirmative.
Again at the last session of Congress bill
drawn by Mr. Covert, Democrat, and cal
culated to injure the iron and steel workers,
went to the committee on ways and means,
and after long and acrimonious discussion it
was rejected the vote being seven against six,
Gen. Garfield being one of those voting in the
majority.

Loss Of the Schooner Wellington.
PLYMOUTH, Mass, Sept. 11.-Schooner Well

piled upon the shore. The schooner Yelling
ton sailed from Bangor on the 9th, struck the
gale on the Sth and laid to under reefed main

he was outside of Cape Cod, having seen no

quantities of lumber afloat off Manomet Point,

been the Wellington. AS there were two other
lumber laden schooners in company with the
wrecked schooner on the afternoon before she
struck, it is feared that one or both of them
were lost
