The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Post makes an analysis of certain
recommendations of the Tariff Commits
sion. which, i'm spite of the apparent con-
cessions of that body in the report first
submitted to the public, show either an
intent to deceive Congress and the public.
or else a misapprehensiOn of The meaning
of its own language. The changes in cot
tons are taken as an instance of tariff re-
auctions more specious than genuine. The
new schedules are confusing and often
misleading. and instead of a simplifica-
ton we are confronted with a fresh
complication. Certainly with regard
to cottons-a very proper product to begin
with in the work of reduction
the general claims Of the commission,
which were the basis of comment at first,
have not been sustained, and the commits
sion's work will doubtless require a very
thorough sitting before its adoption can
be urged in the interest of genuine tariff
reform. The public wanted to believe
that relief had at last been attained, even
though it might not be all that was de-
sired. and they want to believe il still, but
if the report under scrutiny will not bear
that construction it will be more Of a dis
appointment than it was at first an agree
able surprise

\ Washington correspondent explains
the claim Of Smalls. the negro who occu-
pies the seat in Congress to which Hon.
Geo. d. Tillman. of South Carolina, was
elected, to being placed on the retired
list ofthe navy, as follows:
Smalls, who was a slave, was pilot on
the steamer Planter. Of Charleston, in
the early part of the war. He
ran the steamer outside and de
livered her to the blOckading forces. For
this service Smalls was commissioned Il
pilot i'm the United States service, and con.
tinued as such until after the war. Dur
ing the palmy days of carpet-bagism in
south Carolina he received various places
under the State, not only Of honor, but Of
profit. He served also as member both
Of the FOurty-fourth and FOrty-fifth Con-
presses. and the Republican majority Of
the present House turned out the Demo
cratic member, who had 5000 majority.
and pat Smalls in his seat. Several years
since Smalls was on the point Of getting a
bill through Congress TO pay him large
sum for the value of the steamer which he
took from the Confederates. when it was
discovered that he had already been paid
for il by the Navy or Treasury Depart
ment. The latest effort to add to the re-
wards which have been piled upon him is
in the shape of a bill. introduced in the
House on Friday by his colleague.
Mackey providing for his appointment as
a CAPTAIN on the retired list Of the navy.
1t is probable that this bill Will not pass.

THE SAILOR BOYS FAREWELL

Farewell to father blessed hulk,
In spite CT metal, spite of bulk,
His cable soon may slip;
Yet while the parting tear is moist,
The flag in gratitude Ill hoist
In duty to the ship.
Farwell to motier--first class; she
Who launched me on / fe's stormy sea,
And rigged me fore and aft:
May Providence her timbers spare,
And keep her hull in good repair,
To tow the smaller craft.
Farewell to sjster-lovely Yacht;
But whether she'll be manned or not.
cannot now torsee
May some good ship n tender prove,
Well found in stores OF truth and love
And take her under lea.
Farewell to George that jolly boat
And all the little craft atloat
In Homes delightful bay,
When they arrive at sailin age
May Wisdom prove the weather gauge
And guide them on their way.
Farwell to all on life's rude main,
And though we ne'er may meet again,
Through stress of stormy weather;
Yet summoned by the board above,
Wen anchor in the port of Love,
And all be moored together.

To be Reported Adversely.

The committee on Judiciary today
almost unanimously decided TO report
adversely chat section of Cobhs' bill
declaring land grants Of the N. P. Il.
r. had been forfeited. The law gov.
erning Pacific roads, namely. tho.
Northern Pacific, Southern Pacific and
Atlantic & Pacific, is different from the
statutes governing grants to other
roads. The Northern Pacific act does
not provide for forfeiture of lands;
but in the event of non compliance With
its provisions by the company, allows
the Government to take the road and
further its construction in any way
possible. The committee has conclad.
ed that inasmuch as but 600 miles Of
the Northern Pacific remains to b
completed, and its construction haa
been pushed vigorously and in good
faith in spite of numerous obstacles.
notably the failure Of Jay Cooke l. Co..
that it would be not only inequitable
but beyond the spiri. Of law to forfeit
the grant made to this road. Whesher
the same spirit will govern the COM
mi,tce in relation to other Pacific roads
is not absolutely certain; but il n the
general impression among members Of
the committee that the other two rosds
have doue the best that could be A.
complished under the Circumstances.
and that there is really no good esnss
for forfeiture of their lands. II y -
pected that they therefore recomuend
that grants to Ill Pacific roada - ~

painful case Of death caused by hy-
podermic injection of morphia," says
the London Lancet, "directs attention
afresh to the dangers resortipg to this
most perilou. mode of administering
drugs designed to leave pain. The
public should be warned against the
practice Of employing remedies hypo-
dermically. So formidable remedy
should Oh no account be used except
under medical advice, and when
deemed necessary it ought be given by
practitioners We have repeatedly
urged the profession to discountenance
the resort to injections under
the skin, which is tecoming gen

To Break Up Sitting Hens.

Do not drench them in water, nor put
them in barrel with an inch or two of wa
ter in the bottom. nor tie them up by one
leg to tree, nor any of these cruel prac-
tees which our fathers in their ignorance
used, to quench the natural instinct; but
take them from the nest, put them in a
large coop in the open air, under shade
tree, il the weather is warm, and feed them
largely with everything. including baked
bones, that you give to your laying hens.
In many cases the fowl commences to sit
when she is in good condition to keep on
laying eggs, If we can but4get the notion out
of her head that she must be eluck-
ing mother. She needs, perhaps,
the material for egg shells,
which may be easily supplied. Further
more she should not be put in a small
COOP, where she will not obtain exercise;
etter put ber ina pen, havis g no floor, but
loose earth, where she may scratch for O
living. Activity will tend to forgetfulness
of the sitting fever or desire to sit 1t is
wvll to provide also for social activity, ant
TO this end cock may BIO introduced to q

origin Of the Big Hats.

A French correspondent gives the follow
ing romantic account of the origin of a ia
nous fashion: A rOue in Paris challenged
his lady love, who was noted for the ele
gance Of her costumes, to promenade with
his old SLOUGH hat with broad rim for
head dress. She would not be dared to do
anything, 80 she placed it becomingly on
top of her eoitfare, fastened it up in front,
and al owed long plumes to fall from the
sides, and created such sensation that the
fashion was Immediately followed by maid
ems of high and low degree. The Bern.
hardt soon made it famous; and even in
still more exaggerated shape and size it is
worn, on foreign shores as we'll as in our
own land amid the countless forms that
have been introduced since then, and to
the horror Of theater- goers and the habitues
of places Of amusement, who find it impos-
s'ble to see through or over these impene-
uable barriers.

The Matter Of Fences.


The cost Of fence building lis one Of the
great burdensf civilization. According to
the census of 1880 it cost during the year
1879 the sum of $78, 629 900 for building
and repairing fences in this country. The

this purpose:

The following are few specimen fences,
In Nueces county, Tex, $4,000 acres are

But the largest inclosed pasture in the
world is that of the famous Maxwell grant,

Fortune Hunters After Mackey,

The New York Heralds Paris Special
says: Mrs. Mackey is exceedingly indig-
nant at the reports current in. Paris of her
daughters approaching marriage with q
scion of the house of Bourbon. She has
informed reporter that there is not word
CT truth in the story. IF monarch were
to propose for Miss Mackey," declared her
mother "he would be refused" Mrs.
Mackey expressed herself very strongly on
the subject. She complains that she is be-
sieged by fortune hunters. If this goes on
shall have to put notice on the door. said
the wrathful little lady announcing that in
'nformity with American cu:toms Miss
Iackey will not have any marriage portion. "
A curious commentary on this social Incl
dent is supplied to-day by the Madrid cor
respondent of the Gaulois, who, in motto
ing the reports about Don Philippe, the
Bourbon in question, and Miss Mackey, OBJ
serves that Paris does not seem to know
that Don Philippe, was married morgana-
tically to widow named Bordrie on the
18th of February last.
