GENERAL NOTES.

Statistics of the Saginaw lumber trade
show that, Notwithstanding the immense
irroads made on the pine lands of that re-
gion, shipments from the Saginaw river
this year were the largest ever known.
Bay City alone shipped $50, 157, 600 feet by
water, and East Saginaw shipped go, 49,
600.
A dispatch from Rutland, VT, has an
nOunced that poor woman charged with
selling liquor without a license has been
convicted on several hundred complaints,
and. by accommodating the terms of i'm
prisonment under each complaint, has
been sentenced by the Police Court to the
H Ouse of Correction for fifty years.
At the sales of government pine lands
at Duluth last week something over half a
million acres were disposed of at an aver
age of 81 so per acre. The lands are situ-
ated in Northern Minnesota, but not on
streams tributary to the Mississippi. The
lumber interest at Duluth is growing, but
the sales did not create the furOre and
competition hoped for, much of the land
failing to elicit any bids.
The MethOdists of Decatur, ILL.,, desiring
to promote a revival of religion, sent an
invitation to Harrison, the~boy preacher,
who was then laDOflng at Ofanu RAPIDS.
The evangelist replied that his terms were
one hundred dollars a week and board at
a first-class hotel. A committee decided,
after considering the matter carefully, to
engage him, and their course has already
resulted in crowded meetings and numer-
Gus conversions.
1t is said that the burial places Of Paris
are now so crowded, and the expenses of
burial therein so great, that it has become
necessary either to adopt cremation or
seek new places of interment more than
thirty miles from the city, outside the new
lines of fertilization. In all of the present
cemeteries limit of ten or twenty years
obIiterates the contract, and, as a eOnse-
quence, in Mont Parnasse and Montmatre
bodies are placed above each other to the
number of five or six. The SUBJECTS now

A schooner rounded to at some distance
from its wharf at Bath, Me-, the other
day, and, while the lOokers-On were wait
ing for boat to be lowered and rowed
ashore with hawser, according to the
natural order of things, they saw some
thing very different. A dog sprang from
the schooner into the river, swan to the
wharf with the end of line in his mouth,

The proposed increase of the veto power
of the President, allowing him to veto a
part Of bin and approve the remainder,
is but following the advance made in sew
eral of the States on that subject, notably
in New York and Pennsylvania, which, in
the former state. enabled Governor Cor
nell 10 triumph over the plunderers of the
State Treasury. Congress may be UNI
willing TO part with any portion of the
power Of the people, justly guarded with
great jealousy in this country, but it
would seem that we are sufficiently adj
vanced in civilization to surrender to jus
tice and facility what we have held through
long usage more as a tradition than as a
utility. Beside, the people rule in this
government, and can alter and amend
their Constitution to suit themselves, and
iii is now found that the restrictions
on the veto power hamper the President,
SO that il is not in his power to prevent
raids upon the Treasury, 1t is clearly wise
and proper TO make such alterations in
the laws as will meet the case efficiently.
As nation we do not seem any longer to
dread the executive power of the govern
ment as our fOrefathers did, who
had abundant experience of mOnarchical
aggressiyeness and oppression, and we
may much more safely dispense with
restriction which they designed in its orr
gin as a means of compelling the Execu-
tive to a redress of grievances. Its Eng
lish design has really no meaning in this
country where Congress has the power of
a twO-thirds vote over the veto, and where
there are no grievances the Executive
NAV redress.

Plainly Put.

Even Mr.. Roach, who is not likely to say
a good word for free ships, testities that
per cent, dearer here than in England the
labor put upon building the ship is 90 per
cent. dearer. Now, the labor is nearly 80
per cent. of the cost of the ship, and the
proportions are really worse than Roach
makes them. If the American ship will
carry the same cargo and can make the
same trips as a British ship its owner
ought to get double rate for freights and
for passengers in order to make his enter
prise prosperous. He cannot get double
rates, however, for at this point he is in
the market of the world and competition
meets him. He must carry for the same
rates: and as these rates cannot remune-
rate the owner, whose original equipment
is made at double cost, his trade becomes
an arithmetical ImpOssibility.

Why the South Does Not Want Pro-
tapfiva TARIFF


The Northern advocates of protective
tariffs, until recently, were quite confident
of carrying the question by storm. To
say nothing of the great increase
of the manufacturing interests of
the North. the South had gone
on a boom in the same direction,
and her hitherto free trade people had ac-
eepted so much Northern capital, and had
become so enchanted with the prospect of
gain from its investment in manufactures,
that the free trade soil had been thorough
ly prepared for harvest OF
protective tariffs. What must be their
surprise and chagrin at finding cloves
labor lostg' Incredulous up to the very
moment of peril, they sent down to make
special inquiry, only to have their worst
fears confirmed. There is, indeed, no ap-
preciable protective sentiment in the
South, because it is undemOcratic, and
the South is overwhelmingly Democratic.
But there is another reason, possibly
more potent than that of the abstract
wrong-she does not need a protective
tariff. She successfully completes with
English manufacturers in their own mar
kets-in China and Brazil, to which mar
kets a large portion of her manufactures
are exported, while low tariffs, or no tariff
at all, would enable her to procure ma
chinery at much less cost. In the manu-
facture of cotton, the South, with free
trade, or even with properly reduced tar
1 ifs, would soon lead the world
! on account of her production
/ of the raw material, and the abundance
and cheapness of all other conyeniences
except machinery, which would also be
manufactured IN few years from her
own ineXhaustible mines. AS to the
/ skilled labor so much dwelt upon as
necessary for success, and which has long
been regarded as out of reach OF the
South, it would be found that the same
combination of favorable circumstances
would also bring the skilled labOrers.

hatred, in actual violation of law. 1t does
not need much argument to convince the
people that the nomination of Stevens fails
to fit with the advocacy of the PendletOn
