The TariT Commission at Detroit.
 DETROIT, Sept. 1.-The tariff commission CTS to-day heard Clark Cornwall, of Ypsilan- ti, who urged that the duty on soda ash be increased to $1O or $15 per ton and that the duty on paper be advanced to protect manu- lecturers against foreign makers. Sheldon D. Kellogg, of Detroit, made an eloquent ap peal for reciprocity treaty with Canada, which he contended would be of the utmost advantage to this city and State. Communi- cations were read from McKesson and Rob- erts, druggists of Now York, in favor of od calorena duties from G. M. Comfort, Dean of Syracuse University, urging that photo
 graphs imported from institutions of learning be placed on the free list; from c. E. Kahn and others, of Philadelphia, speaking for the people, recommending that a mini mum duty be placed on goods used by the poorer classes and the highest on those con
 sumed by the rich. Dennis & Ryan, of De- troit, appeared and urged that the rate on knit goods be reduced to l71 per cent, and the 50 rer cent duty be taken off of wool. The commissioners then held an executive session lasting over an hour, after which, no other witnesses appearing although several appointments had been made, the commission adjourned to meet at Indianapolis to morrow.

places to visit, for the children were delight ed with the activities of school and the cheer l full manner of the teacher There seemed to be enough of skill and enthusiasm in Q few of I these teachers to leaven the whole corps Several meetings were held for those en- gagged in the first three grades, at which the desired methods were some that carefully ex- plained, and, as far as possible, the princi ples upon which they rest were enunciatea An outline of work proper to be attempted in each year was placed in the hands of the teacher at the opening of the summer term, and it is safe to say that, in every No. l room at least, a faithful endeavor made during the ensuing two months to teach things and 1deas rather than ac07ds and 72an1cs The re- suit was most encouraging, and in saying this I am influenced no more by what have than by the satisfaction which have heard expressed by the teachers themselves and by many parents, who say that their lit tie ones never learned how to read and write fast before.
 ''It would be impossible in this connection to explain fully the scope and meaning of the new methods but brief statement may be of service to those who cannot investigate for themselves.
 These methods are properly natural meth ods. The information is acquired by object teaching and the results are very satisfactory. The report pays 8 deserved tribute to Vice Principal Whitmore's department of the sciences at the High school, which is well suited to prepare young men and women for practical life. The report calls for increased room for laboratory practice in this depart ment. The evening schools, speclal schools, and Officer Sullivan's report the next topics, and some space is devoted to thoughts on training schools and their proper use and objects. The report embraces other sugges- tions of interest.

The Difficulty of Forwarding Supplies Duferin and the Porte Still at Logger heads.
 IsMAIL1A, Sept. 1.-General Wolseley tele- graphs to the government to-day that cir cumstances have forced him to advance SO rapidly that the transport service has been unable to furnish supplies, but that it is now rapidly becoming efficient. He now has three engines on the railway from Ismailia to the front and has reor- ganized and increased the land transport service. Despite General Wolseley's assur- ances, however, the troops at the front are still suffering for the want of supplies.

THE COLUMBIA CANAL.

The Board Of Directors Of tho South
Carolina Penitentiary have decided to go
to work for the immediate development
of the Columbia Canal under the recent
Act Of the Legislature appropriating
labor and money for that purpose. This
action is proper, and will rebound 10 tho
development Of this valuable property OF
the State, which has heretofore been dor.
mant and unproductivc. It's completion
will give the State large annual water
rents, besides adding millions of doiiurs
Of taxable property to the State in the
way of manufacturing investments and
increased valuation of surrounding prop.
erty. 1t will also largely increase the
population of Richland county, thus
greatly benefiting the whole Slate finan-
cially and in The way of population.
The Directors have selected Maj. Il. B.
Lee, of this county, rs the Engineer of
the Canal. at salary of one hundred
and seventy-fvc dollars per month.
This is good scleclion, and gives assu-
rance that the work will be vigorously
and efficiently pushed to completion.
The Columbia Canal is great State en-
terprise, and when completed will place
Columbia ahead Of Augusta, and give an
impetus TO manufacturing mere, which
will make South Carolina the first South

explained a memorial from the bench,
bar, executive officers, commercial boards,
professors of colleges. journalists and
Others, numbering in all 200 citizens of
South Carolina, for national aid for the
ed ication of the youth OF that State, and
in support of his bill on the subject he
said the State had the framework of as
good free school system as any in the
Union, but the great difficulty in the way
of realizing all that was desired from
that system was in the want of money,
and it would be great hardship to tax
the people for school purposes more than
they were now taxed. He denied that
the assessments for taxation in South
Carolina were less than were warranted,
by the value of property, ard briefly ad.

bill met with bitter opposition from a

WORSE THAN A souooLnoY.

The Ne,rs and Courier takes the State
Department of the United States to task
for bad grammar and execrable taste in
the dispatch of congratulation to Queen
Victoria on her escape from the assassin's
shot, which was as follows:
Lo,re!,, AGnister, london, The Presi-
dent ard people ci the United States
congratulate Her Majesty on having been
provideItially protected from the aasas-
sin. Remembering the sympathy OF
Her Majesty and the British people in
our recent national bereavement, the
feeling Of indignation and thankfulness
for the Queens safety is deep and uni
versal. FRELINGHUysENs
The Ne,rs and Courier very pertinently
suggests that had there been no recent
national bereavement here, according to
this dispatch there would have been la
congratulation for the Queens escape,
whereas there ought to have been con-
graduation without reference to our be.
reavement on account of the Queens
virtue and goodness. Oar contemporary
also thinks that outside Of the State De-
partnient feelings have no memory. and
yet this dispatch assures US that ''the
feeling of indignation aud thankinlness'
does not remember that tHer Majesty
and the British people" sympathized in
our bereavement. Our contemporary
might also have inquired why there
should be any indignation at the Queens
safety, for the dispatch assures the Queen
that "the feeling of Indignation and
thankfulpess for the Queens safety is
deep aud universal Then we should
like to be informed as to which feeling,
that of indignation or of tharkfulness,
is the stronger in the opinion of the State
Department? We did not think there
was any Indignation for the Queens
safety. We supposed that the indigua-
ton was entirely on account of the at
tempted assassination, and on this point
we have no doubt that the whole Ameri-
can people will take sides against the
State Departments assurances. The
Is a disgrace to the United
