The Ancient World.

In recent lecture on the world at
the time of mans appearance, Boyd
Dawkins, the English geolOgist, gave
a brief sketch of some of the changes
which haye preceded the present con-
dition of the earth's surface. In the
eocene and miocene periods, he said
Europe was united with Iceland and
Greenland, and also with the United
States of America by a barrier of land,
extending past the Farce Isles, which
was covered by dense forest. COM
posed to. a large extent of the same
trees, in Europe and in America, and
which allowed OF comparatively
free migration of animals to and fro
between England and the United
States. In the rivers of Europe were
alligators and fish not to BE- eiistin-
guished from those of America. In
the pfiocene age the barrier of hand
became depressed and for the FIRST
time in the history Of the world what
is now the Atlantic became connected
with the Arctic sea. During all these
changes the British isles formed part
of the continent, and the Atlantic
seabOard was marked by the Eve hun
dred fathom line. AS regards the
changes in climate in Europe IN the
three periods, the lecturer said that
during the FIRST period the climate was
tropical in Britain. palnns and bread
fruits and other sOutherh trees living
in the southeast of Ensland. En- the
second period the climate was cooler
and palms were scarce, but magnolia
and tulip trees anu segnoias abound
ed. In the third period the climate
became temperate. These surround
ings Of man were gradually shaped
in the three earlier stage Of the ter
tiary period aHtil they arrived very
early at that equilibrium whieb is
found to day.

MR.. HEWITT ON THE TARIFF.

Mr. Hewitt's speech on the Tariff Commits.
sion bill deserves the more candid and serious
attention because, while dissenting from its
reasonings. we recognize its ability and sin
cerity But we must, at the outset, protest
against Mr.. Hewitt's assumption that the
bill "will make delay" Legislators have to
deal with facts as they are, and not as they
would like them TO be. The situation in Con-
gress is such that nothing but delay, and very
great delay, could possibly be caused by such
bills as Mr.. Hewitt would propose. With
hostile committee 1t would be well-nigh i'm
possible to get any such measure passed, and
the attempt would be a mere waste of time.
Especially, with an overwhelming majority of
the Senate in favor of the Tiff Commission
bill, and therefore opposed to ill-considered
and hasty action at this session, it would be
waste of time to offer new tariff bill in the
House. 1t is possible to secure a thorough in
vestigation of the subject, and fair minded
men of both parties ought to be glad to en-
brace the opportunity.
Mr. Hewitt is right in showing that the
present general prosperity is not necessarily
the result of high duties, any more than the
great depression in business from 1878
to 1879 was the result of high du-
ties But this reasoning evadcs the real
question. An unsOund currency produced
hard times a sound currency has produced
prosperity but the question is whether the
industry of the country was not saved from
greater loss in the time of prostratiOn, and has
not been helped to greater prosperity III the
time of improvement, by means of the system
which MIR. Hewitt opposes. He docs not be-
"leve in the efficacy of taxation in any form
" as an aid to the development OF industry"
and reasons that whenever there is great
surplus of natural products to be exported,
the price of these products is not made at
home. but in foreign markets, and that, con-
sequently, the wages of labor are determined
there and not here. This is not a new theory
The difficulty is that all the experience of the
country for twenty years has taught that,
in its application to this country, it is not a
true theory. Great Britain is obliged TO buy
about the same quantity of wheat, whether
il sells much or little iron to the United
States. Great Britain cannot anywhere get all
the wheat it requires, except from this coun
try in part, whether it sells much or little
iron to this country. Consequently, as tc
part of the wheat we have to sell, Great
Britain is obliged to buy from us at our own
price, and will do so even if we take practi-
cally no iron at all, as in 1873.
At considerable length, and with indisputable

ability, Mr. Hewitt strives TO explain the re-
cent prosperity of the country as due not at
all to the tariff. 1t is always easy to point
ont n great many causes which conduce to the
prosperity of n country when it is prosperous,
but Mr.. Hewitt entirely fails to show that the
limitation of foreign imports has not been one
of those causes. Nor is he able 20 oiier any
argument to show that the recent reduction OF
exports has been due to the same tariff under
which the heaviest exports ever known nave
also been made. Yet he urges that the present
commercial situation is one of much danger,
and demands speedy legislation for the re-
moval of duties on imports. AT this moment,
the precise danger is that imports are dlspro-
portonately large and increasing, and never
thelcss Mr.. Hewitt would throw down the
barriers so that imports may be larger ana
increase more rapidly. And this he considers
"the dictate of craftsmanship"
There are not many who will agree with
him. If it were granted that tho tariff ought
at some time to be reformed in the direction
of lower duties, most intelligent men would
say that this would be very unfavOrable time
for such step. We have scanty crops. Ram
pant speculation at home, and not any inability
or indispositon on the part of foreign con-
sumers, has restricted the sale of our surplus
products. A removal of duties on imports
would not put more corn or wheat into the
granaries between this time and July, nor
would it stop speculation, nor would it incline
British buyers to pay more for American than
for Egyptian, Indian or Russian wheat But
it would, just at this time, increase largely
the quantity of goods purchased from foreign
instead of domestic manufacturers, and thus
swell still further the sums payable to Europe.
Is this indeed the dictate of craftsmanship
Is it not, on the contrary, very clear that we
ought to defer any step in the direction Mr..
Hewitt suggests, if it is to be taken at all,
until we have good crops to sell

RrLLDOzJyG EXTRAORDINARILY

The panic among the South Carolina ballot
box suffers continues They are making every
effort to bulldoze the Court when the election
cases come up for trial next week. Their
organ, The Charleston NelrS and Courier thus
rallies them to duty:
The people must prepare at once and teach the stall
war conspirators that neither through the agency "
prosecutions by wolves In sleeps clothing, by
soft talking shall this State be put In position 10 be
Afr.canzed again. The place TO begin Ia right In tho
United States Circuit Court next week Let the accused
election officers feel and that the State ia with them
Let every one OF the accused understand unmstakaby
that his cause is the cause Of civilization, social order
and good government, and that the indictment OF South
Caronlans to serve the ends Of the stalwars, is
tempt to ndict whole people.
This is clearly a call for the red shirt chivalry
to assemble at the Court House and impress
upon Court, jury and witnesses the danger of
taking any action which will meet their disap-
probation. This is why the injunction GO and
see y is put in italics. The frequent admission
that the whole Democratic party of the State
is guilty of the offences charged is repeated.
The question of guilt is admitted, and the atti-
tude of defiance for the Government and its
laws is assumed without disguise. This is
notification pure and simple. We should have
supposed that the South Carolina Bourbon had
had experience enough with notification, but
he seems to be inviting fresh disaster.

1t was announced, with more or less for
mality, at Albany yesterday, that it was Mr.
1ildcn's purpose to run for Governor Of New
York this fall. Nothing was said about the
Democratic party's wish in the matter, but
that was unnecessary. Mr.. Tiden holds per-
petual mortgage on the party for any Office he
may desire TO run for, and we presume there
will be 20 objection TO his forecosing ii, es-
pecially if he promises to pay literally for the
recreation OF running. OF course no intends
to run merely for the exercise. He is much

1t is gratifying to notice that the activity
which was caused in the Buildings Bureau by
the severe expression of public opinion at the
time of the fall of the houses in Grand-st. has
not died out now that occurrences have
diverted criticism to other quarters. Since that
disaster 81 unsafe structures have been pulled
down and 577 have been repaired. This has
been accomplished without any more men or
any more money than the Fire Department
had before the catastrophe. If other city
departments could be equally stirred up, per-
haps municipal affairs would assume a more
satisfactory aspect.
