PROTECTION vs.. FREE TRADE.

The president of the national asso-
citation of stove manufacturers that met
recently at Cincinnati, in his address,
reviewed the prosperity produced un-
der the republican policy of protec-
ton and drew this picture of our free
trade rival, England:
The unparalleled prosperity of this country
is the direct result of "wel remunerative la
bor." 1t is certainly a very gratifying fact
the tiller of the soil, the laborer and artisan
are all sharing largely in the accumulating
wealth of the country. Is this true to the same
extent of any other nation on the face of the
globe? How is it with our English friends,
who at the present time are so generously adj
vising us in relation to our tariff laws? l trast
that you will pardon me for taking yeur time
just a moment in giving an extract from
parliamentary report of the condition of the
labor employed in the Lancashire coal fields !;
it is good English authority.
Betty Harris, 81 years of age, drawer in
one of the coal pits, testified: 81 have belt
around my waist and chain between my legs
to the truck, and 60 on my hands and feet.
The road is very steep, and We have to hold
by a rope; and when there is no rope, by
anything we can catch hold of. There are
six women and about six boys in the pit
work in; it is very wet, and the water comes
over our clog tops always, and have seen it
up to my thighs; my clothes are always wet. I"
Patience Kerschaw, only II years of age.
gave her evidence: 81 work in the clothes
now have on-rowsers and ragged jacket
The bald places on my head are made by
TRUSTING the cones. The getters l work for
are naked except their caps; they pull off their
clothes; all the men are naked"
Another girl, IS years, testified: "My en-
ployment is to fill my baggie, or stype, with
two and half Or 900 weight of coal; then
hook it to my chain and drag it through the
seam, which is from 20 to 2S inches high, a
distance of some 200 to 400 yards. The pave
ment drag it over is wet, and am obliged
at all times to crawl on my hands and feet with
my baggie hung to the chain and ropes. tits
sad. sweating, sore and fatiguing work, and
frequently mains the women" May we not
hope that our manufacturing interests will
ever receive such protection that the sad pic
ture just presented will never find counter
part in any Of the coal fields of our country.

She Wanted Com sdy.

Three months ago, when anew servant girl
came to Brush street family, the mistress
said she desired to post the girl in advance on
one certain point. She and her husband be-
lonped to an amateur theatrical company, and
in case Jane heard any racket around the
house. she must not imagine they were quar-
relIing. They would simply be rehearsng
their parts. The ''play" began on the third
evening of the girls engagement. The hus,
hand tainted the wife with extravaganza, and
she said he played poker for money; and
chairs were upset and foot-stools were kicked
around, and threats were made OF going home
TO mother, Next morning the mistress said to
the girl: ,,,,;,. onr ,,r.s in srbs

"Yes'm."
at was simply rehearsal, you know; and
Won mustn't think strange of my throwing a
vase at my husband and calling him vile
wretch"
Three or four nights after that the curtain
went ND on play called "The Jealous Hus-
band,'' and Jane heard sobs, signs, Protesta-
tions. threats and ordinations. The next
play was entitled "Coming Home Tight and
was most played in the front hall. Then fol-
lowed the 'sDepths of Despair" '"Threats OF
Divorce" and .'Such WRETCH" until Jane
was at last tired of having private box and
being the only audience. The other morning
she appeared in the sitting room with her hat
ON and her bundle under her arm, and said:
.'Please ma am, but I'm going this morn
ing" -,
: 'N going away"
"For what reason?'
"PIease ma am, but Pm tired of tragedy.
I'm girl as naturally likes to see hugging and
kissing and love-making on the stage, and
when Marks, the lawyer, comes in on the

death. / think I'll try some family where
they rehearse comedy and have deal OF
kissing, and, perhaps, may come in as
supe, and get small share of it for myself"

The scheme for the removal Of the persecut-
ed Russian Jews to Palestine finds new de-
fender in Charles Reade, the novelist. Mr..
Reade takes up the matter with his customary
yehemence, which in this case receives addi-
tional force from the inspiration OF his recent
religious experiences. He refers to the Old
Testament prophecies OF restoration OF the
Jews to their own land from the four quarters
of the earth, saying that "the prophecies we
receive, though obscure in matters OF detail,
are as clear as day on two points: that the
Jews are to repossess Palestine, and, indeed,
rule from Lebanon to the Euprates. and that
this event is to be the first OF great series OF
changes leading to vast improvement in the
condition Of poor, suffering mankind, and Of
creation in general" 1t may be remarked
that, thousands of other people beside Mr..
Reade devoutly believe what he here sets forth.
Indeed, almost nothing in all Scripture is
palmer. As Mr.. Reade puts it: "We have
here in prospect glorious event as sure as
that the sun will rise tomorrow" He goes
on: "Palestine can be colonized effectively
from Russia alone, where there are 10000
Jews trembling for life and property, and the
rest would follow. Let US freely offer ships,
seamen, money, whatever else we are asked
for, They will be a better national investment
than Egyptian, Brazilian or Peruvian bonds"
Other men besides the novelist have made the
same suggestion. Indeed, an organized effort
in this direction has been put forth in Con-
stantinopIe. There is no doubt that the despair
ing Hebrews in Europe would delight to be re-
established in the land of their fathers, whether
they recognize in the desire fullfllment of the
predictions of the ancient prophets of their
race or not. The Turkish government is the
chief obstacle to the restoration for, though it
shows no particular hostility TO the plan, does
not openly favor it. .-. T..

Vaccinated in the Tongue,

F. ON the Grand Rapids Leader
About a week ago man stepped into the
office of well known physician, seated him
self at the table and engaged in conversation.
On the table were lying number of vaccine
points, which the visitor mistook for tooth
picks, and taking up one he began using it.
The physician didn't notice what the man was
doing for some minutes, and his attention was
only'called to the fact by the visitor punctur-
ing his tongue with one of the points, causing
it to bleed slightly. The doctor gave the mat
ter prompt attention, washed the mans
mouth with alcohol, and used preventives of
various kinds, but, alas, to no purpose. The
vaccination "took," md the man to-day
wears his tongue on the outside of his mouth.

pisastess At Sea.

London Times: Two thousand and thirty
nine actual shipwrecks occurred throughout
the world last year, and the estimated value of
property lost was SaSo. ooo, 900. this sum in
Guiding British property owned in the United
Kingdom and the colonies valued at ESQ.,
600, GOO. As compared with the previous
year, there was an increase of 35oin the wrecks
and an increase of about Ioo, 900, 600 in the
value of property lost, the last year having
been an exceptional one for gales and storms,
and for the loss of vessels of large tonnage,
with cargos of exceptional value. British
owned sailors and steamers aggregated I,o4S,
the number of steamers being 1871; foreign
steamers Sc. OF the coasts of England, Scot
land and Ireland SEQ ships were actually lost,
British-owned vessels forming three parts OF
this total. One hundred Of all flags sank
through collision; 4,I34 persons perlshed. This
includes officers, crews and passengers IN all
parts of the world on board ships, and is con-
siderably in excess of the number reported
during the previous year. Produce OF the
kinds, being the various cargoes, destroyed or
swallowed up by the sea, amounted to nearly
1000, 600 tons, and no less than I32,4so tons
of coal were lost.
If it be true that the French are growing
year by year more fond of Americans, as the
English assert the fact has escaped very gen.
eral notice. Nor has it been made the sub
ject of much remark that the English are
growing more and more unpopular in France.
True, there is hitch about the commercial
treaty, and the prevailing sentiment in France
is becoming more and more materialistic--a
thing which is supposed to be contrary to
English notions. But, then, France and Eng
land are apparently at one politically as re-
CARDS Egyptian affairs, and at profound peace
as between themselves. And yet the English
press is full of little filings about the disgust
which the insular kingdom inspires in the
French republic. Here is an illustration con-
tanning grain of truth, which recently APP
peared in London journal of standing: "We
spend cash in France more freely than any
other people in the world. We get no thanks
for it: we are cordially detested by the French
nation. Do we effect for ourselves any pro-
portionate amount of good? The traditional
luminosity of French to English is as strong
now as it ever was. Decades of increasingly
close social intercourse have not mitgated it
in the slightest degree. We are infinitely
more detested in France at present than Ger
mans. The reason IS, in large measure,
thai we are regarded by the French as more
foreigners than Germans, and there is far less
dissimlarity between any two continental peo-
Piles than between any one continental people
and ourselves. Something, too, must be at.
tributed to the circumstance that the average
of the travelling Brton, or Of the Briton who
permanently settles abroad, is lower than that
of The Englishman at home"
