Norrison's Treasury of Song.
A very neatly got up book, published by
Hubbard Bros, containing 300 songs
with music of various kinds, from grave
to gay. This book will be great favorite
in the homes of the people. 1t is plea
sure to look over such q collection of
lyric gems. All lovers Of music and song
will gloat over this Treasury. The same
publishers also issue a similar volume
without words, which contains many rare
aud beautiful numbers for pianoforte.
A great man has said, "give me the
making of my country's songs, and care
not who makes her laws" And when we
think on the big place music and song
fills in our daily life the saying carries
force aud truth with IL. 1t speaks well
for the elevated taste of our people when
such collections of song as we are now no.
ticipg, are being published and readily
bought up. We congratulate Madame
Saunders on securing the Lambertville
agency, for the sale of these beautiful
song books, and we trust that all lovers of
whatever tends to elevate the standard of
our every day singing, will speak a good
word for the Treasury Of Song, now for
the first lime being offered for sale In our
city. The book is thing of beauty,
which the poet says is therefore ga JOY
forever"

The great river floods, in Ohio and
adjoining states have caused an amount of
loss and suffering that we cannot easily
estimate. In large cities, as Cincinnati
and Louisville, the immediate wants Of
the sufferers can be more readily relieved !;
and the promptness and efficiency of the
measures adopted in those cities is be-
yond all praise.
But in the smaller towns and hamlets,
the relief is not so quickly supplied and
the necessity must long continue for aid
to those who have been in an hour strip
ped Of home, furniture and food, whose
land can hardly render them the usual re-
turn this season.
We who have long been spared any
calamity by wind or water, may we'll give
of even our little, to help our western
brethren, whose necessity is so great.
1t will be seen by our notice elsewhere,
that an opportunity for doing SO will be
afforded on next Sunday evening, at st.
Andrews Church, when the collection
will be appropriated to that purpose, and
its proceeds forwarded Immediately to
some responsible resident at one of the
points of greatest destitution. We notice
also that subscription has been opened
at the Lambertville National Bank.

Thu GRAND jury SYSTEM. Jer-
sey City Journal says "The bill intro
duced in the State Senate by Mr.. Scbenck,
of Middesex, proposing change in the
mode of selecting members of grand
juries, is causing, az it should, much dis
cussion. Any candid man who daily con-
siders the facts, will be convinced that
unless tho present mode of constituting
grand juries can be radically reformed,
the grand jury should be abolished alto
gether. The grand jury room is the scene
of quite as much abuse and perversion of
justice as of any contribution toward pro-
noting the ends Of justice the recent ac-
ton and non-acti0n of the grand juries in
Passaic, Middlesex and this county, ought
to be enough to stimulate the Legislature
to adopt Senator Schenck's, or some
other, proposal for reform. Grand jarles
frequently find indictments OH grounds of
personal prejudice and spite, rather than
on grounds of evidence and considera-
tons Of common sense, and they quite as
frequently fail to indict those they
should, because of a desire to shield their
friends, and sometimes themselves. The
public places very little confidence In,
and feels very slight respect for, the aver
age grand jury, and the institution shonld
be made better or be wiped out. Wis

THE APPROACHING Bl-cENrENNrAL,

/ The province of New Jersey until 1909
was divided into East aud West Jersey.
| the boundary line extending from the
coast near Egg Harbor northwest to the
south branch of the Raritan river and
thence west to the Delaware river The
West Jersey propretors had number of
Legislatures Assemblies from 1868 to the
time of union, but East Jersey, being
owned by one man until the death of
Carteret, had no representative govern
ment. When Carteret died the province
of East Jersey was sold TO pay his debts
to twelve proprietors, each OF whom sub
sequently took one partner making
twenfy-four in all. Thos, Rudyard was
appointed Deputy Governor under this
new regime, aud he called Legislative
council TO meet on March l. 1888. The
assembling of the body is the event to be
celebrated. The present Legislature--the
10th of the State-is, of course, the
lineal successor of that of 1858, but its
earliest predecessor was the Assembly of
West Jersey in 1868. The Assembly of
1888 was not therefore what 1t has been
described in the Legislature this year,

cupied twenty eight days The laws
against the common crimes which had
been enacted in West Jersey wers adopted
for East Jersey aud the province was d.
vided into the counties of Bergen, Essex,
Middlesex and Monmouth, for which civic
officers were appointed. Slavery was re-
cognized as q domestic institution and
some details of government were settled.
Measures to preserve the sanctity of the
Sabbath received early attention and ON
phatic measures were taken to maintain it.
When in the reign of GOOD Queen
Ammo" the provinces were consolidated,
the Legislatures met together and had FREE
quent sessions until few days before the
Philadelphia Declaration of Independ-
ence, New Jersey put forth its own asser
tion of freedom, separated itself from
England, and q few years after started
the system Of government which in all its
essential features exists on the banks OF

No REDUCTION OF TAxEs.-The bill to
repeal internal revenue taxes, effecting a
total reduction of Sal, 600, 900 year, was
defeated by the Democrats of the House
on Monday night, and the probability
now is that there will be no reduction of
taxes by this Congress. Mr.. Kelley IN
dertook to bring the bill before the House,
but was defeated by vote of 1872 to o.
considerably less than the requisite two
thirds majority. The 81 votes in opposi-
ton were made up of 10 Democrats and
1S Republicans, while AZ Democrats help
ed to make up the 1862 affirmative votes.
This result is a sore disappointment to
the friends of reduction of taxes In the
House, and will be a still sorer disap-
pointment to the country at large. Con-
gress re assembled In the present session
under the most imperative instructions
from the country to cut down the taxes
and reduce and re-adjust the tariff. 1t
has SO far done neither. and has but little
over week of official life left. 1t has
fooled away its opportunities, and griev.
ously disappointed the nation.
