4" Dot PoY of Mine"

One of the teachers in the public
schools actually received the other day
an excuse, uniquein its way, and written
in behalf Of delinquent pupil by the
father. No teacher could hold such an
excuse not valid even under the require
ments of the new code of the Board of
Education. 1t runs in this wise:
Mr.. Teacher: Dot poy of mine vos

How Bob Remembered.

"Object teaching" is not always sue
cessful, as the following incident related
by the Youths Companion will show
A gentleman called his servant one day
and informed him he wished him to
learn the names OF the books in the
Bible. "Now," said he, II will tell you
the first and during the day I will ask
you where it is, to see If you remember;
it is Genesis"
Later in the day Bob was called but
he could not remember what it was.
Now" said his master, "I have a
way to impress it upon your mind so
you cannot forget it.. Now, Bob we
have an old horse in the stable. What
do we call 1t ?"

"Correct And we have a little girl
in the kitchen what do we call her ?"
"Sis."
"Very we'll. Now put the two togeth-
er and you have Jenny-Sis-Genesis.

morrow"

The next morning Bob was summon
ed to appear before his master.
"Good morning, Bob. Can you give
me the name Of the first book in the
Bible this morning?"
''Yes, sah.n

Foreirn Trade Of the united States.

Our foreign trade returns. Just issued,
indicate that the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1881, has been the most re.
markable one in the commercial history
Of the United States. Our exports
exceeded in value 5000, 1913, 47S, an
amount never exceeded in the history Of
the country. Our imports were $685.
59S, 219. Last year the exports were
1886, 63s, 65S; the imports 1867, 954. TAG.
There has been a large increase Of ex-
ports, amounting to 500, $780, 15, and a
decrease of imports amounting to
S25. 361, 527. The value of the
breadstuffs exported was 1866, 500, 900,
against $3.50 100000 the year before,
so that the increase cannot be at
trbuted to the cause assigned by
some writers on the subject. When
the detailed return is made we shall be
able to detect the cause of increase. The
enormous increase in our foreign trade
in the last decade is shown by compari-
son of our exports. In 1871 they aggre-
gated value of $442, $50, 17S. which,
put beside the figures for this year, $902,-
319, 473, indicates an increase of over
100 per cent. The excess of imported
specie over specie exported in the year
ended June 80, 1880, was SIS. 1891 ,391 f;
for 1881 $91, 16s, $50 In other words,
We purchased gold to that amount by
means of the balance of trade IN our
favor. 1t is anticipated that Europe will
continue to liquidate large trade bal
ance with US by sending specie, but not
to as great an amount, perhaps, as in
the year just passed.

ATLANTA'S RAILROAD BOOM
Hundreds Of Men at Work on the
Macon Extension TO AtIanIa-RaIIs
for the Rome ExtensfOn-The GeOr-
gia Pacific.
Atlanta Constitution

Colonel McCracken says that he has
now at work on the line of the Macon
extension about four hundred men, ard
by Saturday night there will be from
seven hundred to one thousand actually
engaged in grading the road. This force
will be increased as rapidly as possible.
Colonel Cole says that he can complete
the Rome and Macon extensions both by
the first of next April. The steel rails
for the Rome extension ought to begin
arriving in Atlanta to-day. When they
once commence there will be daily re
ceipts until both the roads are supplied.
On the Georgia Pacific the grading
force has crossed the river. and is push
ing on towards Douglasville This force
is beng augmented by new hands, and
as soon as the location of each twenty
miles is made, a new force will be put
on that part of the road. At the other
end of the line the first twenty miles
from Columbus this way has been com
pleted, and the second section is being
opened rapidly. The contract has been
made with Mr. Holcombe, of this city,
for twenty thousand cross ties, delivery
TO begin in a week and be kept up as
fast as they can be gotten out.
Colonel Johnson and Mr.. Gordon, of
the construction company, are in the
city, and are closing contracts for various
sorts of work on the line.
All of Atlantas roads, it will be seen,
are in good condition, and the work Is
being bravely pushed ahead.

senator Elect Warner Miller.

There is nothing very remarkable In
the following criticism of the New York
Senator, except that it should have been
uttered by the New York Times, an
organ of his party:
"Mr. Warner Miller, United States
Senator elect, exhibits a refreshing frank
ness in stating his views on public ques-
tiOns. NJ. Miller announces himself as
opposed to any reduction of the protec-
tive duty on paper, though he maintains
that paper is sold as low, quality for
quality, in New York as in London. In
that case, it is difficult to imagine any
reason for retaining the duty on paper.
1t cannot yield any revenue to the gov
eminent, and it is not needed for the
protection of the manufacturer against
competition with the 'pauper labor
of Europe, Mr. Miller also announced
himself as in favor of aiding the estab-
lishment of steamship lines to South
America, so that American manufac-
turers can send their goods there directly
instead of by way CT London. In other
words, Mr.. Miller is in favor of voting a
government subsidy for the building of
steamships which are not required by
the wants of legitimate trade. That, Mr..
Miller thinks, would be quite as sound
policy as the establishment of star
routes in Western territories. If Mr..
Miller means star routes of the Brady
order he is undoubtedly right, but the
Senstor-elect has probably learned by
this time that two blacks do not make a
white. In due course he may also learn
the expediency of being a little less effu-
sive and a little more logical"

1T is obvious that our protective sys-
tenn is doing very well. 1t has enabled
US to compete successfully with the
mother country in many important
manufactures-even to undersell her in
her own markets; and it has not inter
fered with the expectation of our great
agricultural staples-cOtton, grain, to-
baccO, and the rest. 1t has brought US
a good revenue, enabling US to astOnish
Englishmen with the rapidity of the re-
ductiOn of our national debt. We are
not going to part lightly with these and
other manife7t advantages VIII d our
tariff sYtem gives US under any emotion

argues on the beauties of free trade. -
Cincinnati Gazette.
Yes, remarks the Courier Journal, the
protective system is doing very well''
as a system of robbery. Any sect of
business men who are set up in business
by taxation levied upon their fellow citi-
zens for their benefit to the extent of
several hundred millions of dollars a
year, ought to be "dOing very we'll in
the way of filling their own pockets. AS
the system was adopted for the sole pur-
pose of preventing British goods from
being introduced into the United States,
and the protectionists now declare that
they are fully able to undersell Great
Britain Gin many important manufac-
lures. it is very evident that it is time
to cut down the duties on the kind of
manufactures alluded to, for the necessi-
ty, if necessity there was, of levying the
duties is past, by the admission of pro.
lection organs themselves. That is per
fectly apparent. The people are paying
war taxes on many articles manufac
tured in this country. Down with pro-
lection robbery!
