THE HEIRS OF GENERAL TAYLOR.-The House of
Representatives ON Tuesday did gracious thing in
graceful way, amending the deficiency appropriation
bill 50 as to pay the salary of Gen Zachary Taylor
resident OF the United States to his heirs-at-aw.
The amendment.s which moved by Mr. J. r..
tucker. Of Virginia. directs the Secretary of the
Treasury TO pay Mrs Bette Taylor cambridge and
Mt sarah Knox Wood daughter and granddaughter
OF Cen Taylor the sum Of S25 00 Less so much of his
salary as the late President or his family may have
drawn during the year. 1t will be remembered that
President Taylor, who was inaugurated March A. iS4g
died July 1850 1t is the custom in such cases for
Congress 70 vote the years salary to the Presidents
widow or his other legal Representative But Gen
Taylors family at that time held large estates and
declined proposition which male them 10 intro.
duee bill TO pay TO the widow the remainder Of tha
years salary The proposition to pay this money nov
grows out Of the fact that Mrs. Dandridge fygho I,
Gen. TaylOrs daughter, and Is tle widow Of Col Bliss
the Generals chief Of staff throughout the MAxicar
war; and Mrs. Wood daughter Of Surgeon Wood ar,
not in good circumstances. Gen. Richard Taylo
before his death, and his heirs since. have Telin
qushed all claims upon this money in favor Of th
more needy and helpless ladies. The House adopted
the amendment without dissent as soon as its Objec
was explained, and the Senate will doubtless max
haste 70 confirm simple oct Of justice which confer
such great boon.

BlaCkSilkS

Such a stock as Black Dix
affords the best test of the
spirit of a merchant. 1t con-
stitutes too large a part of his
trade to be trifled with; and
as he conducts that, so he
considers it wise to conduct
the rest of his business. You
have here the clue to his po-
licy. If he sells snowy silks
at a low price and calls
them cheap because they are
snowy, or if he sells heavy
silks at a low price and calls
them cheap because they are
heavy, he either does not
know his business or delibe-
rately cheats. To be snowy
is nothing; to be heavy is
nothing. A snowy "silk"
may be nearly all cotton; a
heavy silk may be nearly all
dye!
We are frank enough to
say that few statesmen or mer-
chants can tell a good silk
from one that is not good;
and often, when a bad silk
is sold, neither the merchant
nor his salesman has a sus-
picion Of the fact.
But the great industry of
silk-manufacture, using mil
lions upon millions of capital
and thousands upon thou
sands Of human lives, is not
conducted in ignorance of its
raw material or of its pro-
duct. Few undertakings of
man are based on more exact
knowledge. Do you ina
gine, then, that there need
be any considerable uncer-
tainty about the quality Of a
silk which we place before
you? There is necessarily
just this ground of uncertain
ty, and no other: a good silk
is sometimes spoiled in the
last process of manufacture,
and the fact can be found
out only by wearing it,
The buyers problem is
how to get the certain good
and avoid all that can be
avoided of the uncertain bad
And this is the answer: buy

Maine State Temperance Society

The attempt to convert the State Temper.
ance Society into political organization,
with distinct set of candidates for office,
from that of Governor down, can not fail to
be injurious to the cause of temperance.
1t will necessarily drive out of the organi-
cation, the conservative temperance men of
the State.
The utmost that can be reasonably expec
ted by the movement is the defeat of the re-
publican candidate for Governor, and the
election of the fusion candidate How the
cause OF temperance is to be promoted by
such a result, none but a lunatic can see.
The True Republican,, falsely named,
enters upon this crusade, in a spirit of vitu-
peration and bitterness scarcely equalled.
Its intemperate language and vulgar abuse
afford abundant evidence of the hopelesness
of its cause.
The Morrils, Dingleys, Perhams and
other noble men, who, for the last thirty
years, have stood in the front rank in the
temperance cause, are repudiated, and their
advice spurned.
More progressive leaders have seized the
helm and the temperance people are called
upon to follow. The following will probably
be small.
The clergy are called upon to fall into line
in this fsnatical movement; but the clergy
will be slow to enter upon political crusade
which bodies nothing but disaster to the tenn
perance cause.
