suddenly rose to $1,972,577, and in 1882
to So, 922, OS1, the quantity in the latter
year being 4G4171,S2S pounds, actually
greater than that of steel rails. But the Senate,
failing to comprehend the sound reason for
q higher and specific duty here, restored an
ad vaorem duty on blooms, which is weakest
Just when the low price OF metals abroad
makes competition most dangerous to our man
ufactures, cut it down from 45 to 40 per cent,
and then further reduced the duty on steel rails
to $15 CO per tOn-the Commission having
recommended SIT 90, and tho present duty
being $2S. In other words. the Senate takes
off duties on steel rails yielding $2,3S4,S22
last year. and at the same time provides Tor
still larger imports of blooms at lower duty.
Similar defects run through the bill wherever
it has been much amended"
No reasonable member of Congress Will vote
to expose tho industries of the country to these
destructive plumbers. Nobody wants to raise
the duty on pig-iron to $12 10 per ton ;
no one ought to want an act that would
involve boundless and endless litigation; no
reasonable man can think it safe to put down
the duty on finished rails So "a below the
Commissions rate, and at the same time to
cut down the duty on blooms 81 80 below the
Commissions rate. The alternative has be-
come q simple one. A MEMBER who hon
esty wants any tariff reduction this year will
vote for non-concurrence and amendment by
a committee of conference. Those who vote
otherwise will make it plain that they want
no revision or reduction this year.

Some interesting tables sent to the Bureau
of Vital Statistics in this city, and recently
published, call attention, among other things
to the excess of deaths caused in New I DIRK ny
pneumonia over those from the same disease
in Berlin, place of nearly the same SIZE. Inc
deaths in Berlin from this cause i'll 1882 were
1928, while in New-York they were 3,4|2-
nearly double. Such a state of affairs VIII not
astonish any one who has glanced regularly
over the obituary notices in the newspapers,
especially of persons of prominence. The fatal
sickness in many cases has been pneumonia. An
inquiry among physicians, the result OF which
is published elsewhere, develops the fact that
this trouble is now almost epidemic in New
York. Some unknown atmospheric influence
seems to predispose New Workers to this ill'
ness. The mortality is confined chiefly to old
people, but many persons who are still young
are attacked by it. In view of these circum-
stances, the need of great care against e1-
posure in this trying weather cannot be I'M
pressed too strongly upon any one.

Mr.. Robert p. Porter's letter this morning is
especially valuable for the amount of trust
worthy information which it contains, and
which is not to be found elsewhere In print.
1t is summary of his observations on the
woolen manufacture Of Great Britain, and can
not fail to instruct all persons who are inter
ested in our one industry which, more than
any other, is sensitive to English competition.
Mr.. Porter makes clear the odds which our man
ufacturers have to struggle with. Although the
number of onr woollen factories here is larger
than in England, they are widely separated.
In Great Britain they are concentrated within
a radius Of 22l2 miles. Double the number of
operatives are engaged there The tables of
statistics which Mr.. Porter has prepared show
the excess Of wages paid in the United States.
In some divisions of the wOollen trade we give
double for the same work The most benighted
Free trader and the Anti-monopOlist cannot
fail to see q great light If they will only give
this letter their careful study.

A commendable effort was made at last
winters session of the Legislature by Mr..
Catlin to pass law to stop the outrages per-
petTated upon poor people who are induced to
buy furniture and other household articles on

adequate legislation on the subject failed,
owing to political influence from the Bowery.

The True Gentleman.

True gentlemen are to be found in
every grade of society. The plowman
with his broad sun-burnt hand, his
homely dress, and his open, honest
countenance, is oftener found to be
possessed of the real attributes of the
gentleman than the enervated man-mil-
liner, who is much more careful of his
gloves than his honor; whose shirt
bosom must be as pure as a virgins
form; and who, if one curl of his glossy
wool were displaced, would be immedi-
ately thrown into strong commissions.
The blood which flows in rich and
generous stream through the heart of a
Russian serf is as pure in the eyes of
God as the life current which eddies
round the princely fountain of the high
est OF England's noblemen. It is q
false, illiberal idea, that because a man
cannot claim alliance with the proud
and wealthy his name should be stricken
from the list of gentlemen. We are all
created alike-our mothers suffer the
same pangs; and shall the one who is
ushered into life upon silken couch
spurn him whose limbs were first laid
on truss of straw? Which class from
time immemorial has shed honor and
glory on the earth--the proud aristocrat
or the poor peasant? Whose names
are enrolled on the pages of history
the gentleman of fashion or the gentle
man of nature? Whose voices are most
heard, and to most effect, throughout
the world? Why, those of men born
in poverty, but clothed by truth with
the jeweled robe of honor. Does the
mere fact of a mans being able to make
bow with scrupulous exactness con-
stitute him a gentleman? Shall the
children of one another be divided be-
cause one portion are gifted with grace
fitness of action and coxcombry OF
demeanor; while the others will not
cringe at flattery's fawn, or waste the
hours given them by heaven to improve,
in the useless study of the puerile forms
of fashion City and Country.

For the week ending May 5, 1883,
the reports indicate that diarrhea,
dysentery and measles increased, and
that neuralgia, rheumatism, influenza
and consumption decreased in area of
prevalence.
At the State Capitol the prevailing
winds, during the week ending May
5, were south, and, compared with the
preceding week, the temperature was
higher, the absolute and relative hui
Nudity more and the day and night
ozone less.
Compared with the average for the
month of April in the preceding six
years, measles was considerably more
prevalent, and intermittent fever, re-
mittent fever and diphtheria were less
prevalent during the month of April,
1888.
For tho month of April, 1888, COM
pared with the average of correspond
ing months in the five years 1S79-1SS3,
the temperature was slightly higher, the
absolute and relative humidity the
same, and the day and night ozone less.
Including reports by regular observ-
ers and by others, diphtheria was re-
ported present during the week ending
May 5, and s'nce, at seven places, scar
let fever at nineteen places and measles
at twenty-five places.

Ouakers Of Long Ago.

A record book of monthly meetings
held by Virginia Friends of Henrico
county from 1699-only eight years after
the death of George Fox, the founder
of the society-to 1859, now owned in
Richmond. contains many interesting
entries. 1t began with report OF
business meeting held to raise money
for putting up house to worship in,
and at which it was ordered that of the
tobacco crop raised that year, $3.50
pounds should be assessed on the mem
bers and paid over to the builders.
The structure was to be $50 foot long
and 20 foot wide;" and at another meet
ing an assessment OF, LOO pounds of
tobacco was made to pay the expenses
of ceiling this Westinghouse with riven
boards and making and hanging the
doors. No record is made of the spot
where the house stood, and every trace
of it has disappeared. The clerk in
whose hand the first records are written
was Joseph Peasants, believed to be q
son of John Peasants, who came from
England and settled under grant from
the King in 1866. A portion of the
grant is still in the possession of mem
Der of the family, who now lives on it,
and it has been owned continuously 10y
the Peasants for 2l4 years. The record
book contains no instances of litigation,
all disputes having been decided by ar
bitration. When the differences arose
they were laid before the monthly meet
ing, which named committee of eds
Greet men" who acted as referred
court, to which the case was taken for
argument and decision. In no case
mentioned in the book did their verdict
fail to obtain agreement from both par
ties to the dispute.

The most remarkable hail-storm of
the season is reported by the Hawkins
vile (Ga) Dispatch, although it must
be kept in mind that the editor of that
playful sheet is never under oath while
\ writing This hail-storm had its rise
and fall in Worth county, GA, and
stones of all sizes and shapes imagin-
able fell. 1t is said that a little boy
found in his fathers yard, after the
storm had ceased, hailstone that re-
sembled watch in every particular,
having q perfect dial and the ring by
which the chain is attached, and it was
$3.50 o'clock by the hands when the boy
picked it up. 1t is also said that an
other one was found in gentleman's
yard that had the appearance in every
way of 2-year-old boy with pistol in
his hand, and that the pistol actually
fired off and killed fine fattening hog
that had sought refuge in fence cor
ner near by.

AN experimental barn has been COM
pleted at Amherst College. The large
stables have cement floors and sides, in
which cattle are to be kept while ex-
periments in feeding are going on. The
cement is to prevent any loss in manure.
Space is reserved for capacious silo,
and in an annex are an engine and ma
chinery for cutting and cooking feed.
In a wing is piggery consisting of
twenty apartments, each with door
opening into the alley, and the porkers
who are being tried with various kinds
of food will be invited to stand upon a

Petroleum as Fuel.

The following is given as the manner
in which petroleum is burned in the
fre-box of a Russian locomotive: "Fhe
refuse is laid on the highest step at
both ends of the fre-box, and drops
from one step to another, cascade fash
ion. No steam is introduced into the
fire-box, as the refuse petroleum simply
runs through the pipes by gravitation,
the tank carrying the petroleum being
placed not ON the floor of the tender,
but above the water-tank, and, should
tho petroleum be too thick, it is ar
ranged that steam can be introduced
through warm pipe in this tank, the
steam ultimately exhausting into the
tender"

AN extraordinary project has been
suggested in Paris. It. is to connect
the capital with the eityA Rouen by a
tunnel. The length of the work would
be over seventy-three miles, while the
cost is calculated at e5, O00,O 900 sterling.
The projectors contend that there are
great strategic as we'll as commercial
advantages connected with the scheme,
but sober-minded critics regard it as the
mere dream of visionary.

every man in the car should get up and
take drink with him. Those who
would not comply were summarily
pulled out Of their berths, and among
them was clerical-looking gentleman,
who denounced the entire proceeding in
o manner denoting that he was deeply
offended. He inquired of Col. Butler
who he was, and the latter, being in an
extremely mellow" state, told him that
his name was George II. Butler, and
furthermore that he was a Special In
spector of the Postoffice Department,
bound for his post of duty. The cleri-
cal-looking gentleman, who evidently
did not relish being pulled out of his
sleeping-berth by the heels at midnight,
while the train was travelling at the rate
of forty miles an hour, proved to be
Bishop Simpson, of the Methodist
Episcopal church. At the first station
he telegraphed President Hayes full
account of the affair, and before
Butler had reached his destination an
order overlook him to return to Wash
ington at once, dismissed from the serv-
