HONESTY VERSUS DISHONESTY.

The difference between the frank and manly
stand of the Republican party upon the tariff
issue and the hypocrisy and double dealing of
the Democrats is nowhere better stated than in
the address of the National Union League of
America to the country, which has been issued
by Congressman Boutelle, of Maine, William
+. Cook, and General c. Ii. Grosvenor, the
committee appointed by the League for that
purpose. The address says:
On this great issue the Republican party well

for free trade, has not the courage to say go,
but shuiies and lodges and declares that it

The very positiveuess and candor Of the Re
publican position, and the lack Of candor aud
common honesty in that of the Democrats,
will lead many who have been inclined to free
trade views to re-exsmine the question for
themselves.

NoRRJsToWY INSANE asylum CASE

NORRISTOWN INSANE ASYLUM CASE
A patient named Free died IN the Norristown
Asylum for the Insane last Sunday from
injuries received at the hands of keeper, az
was proved at the cOroner's inquest. The
keeper was discharged from the hospital be-
fore the examination, and will therefor prob
ably escape all punishment. Pennsylvania has
recently appointed board of managers of
such houses, whose business it is, or should
be, to investigate such cases and redress any
outrage as far as practicable. In the present
instance one of the resident physicians has
been censured for neglcctinc to report the
case and for not having caused the arrest of
the guilty keeper, and reward of $500 has
been offered for the arrest and conviction of
the latter. But this action was not taken by
the board of management of the asylum until
the case had gone to the coroner's jury and
the murderer had had time to escape.
There is often difficulty in proving or pun-
ishng guilt when such Outrages occur in one of
these large institutions. Why is thIs2 Why

So much capital from the United States has
recently been invested in Mexican mines and
railroad schemes that the news OF an msur-
rection in Mexico will excite much more interest
in this country now than formerly. If much
of revolution should break out there it would
undoubtedly mean serious losses to foreign
capital but the wild rumors that reached this
city last night by telegraph are not from
source that entities them to much credit
In connection with these dispatches, talk
which the Governor of Chihuahua recently
had with a correspondent of THE TRIBUNE,
and which is printed elsewhere in this
impression, Is of interest 1t is In
the Governors part Of the country that
the revolution is reported as spreading.
Senior Terrasas heartily favors the proposed
reciprocity treaty between the two Republics,
and is not opposed to granting liberal conces-
sions to railroad companies, whether made up OF
Mexican OF American capitalists. Probably he
expresses the opinion of the mass of his country
men and if he does, the rebellion has small
chances of success.

The reunion of the survivors of John Nor
gans command, recently held in Kentucky,
has started afresh all the contradictory stories
that have ever been told in regard to that
noted guerilla's death. His friends naturally
have always made out as strong a case as
possible against the Union soldiers who shot
him. A certain amount of exaggeration would
not matter much but when it comes to the
assertion loud and long that the rebel
chief was foully murdered, 1t is
time at least to enter protest and publish
the truth once more. The story of MorgaD's
death, therefore, may be found in our WASH
Ington dispatches, and the facts stated in it
will hardly be successfully disputed.

Information was rec lived at this Office
yesterday that man has been engaged lately
in soliciting subscriptions for THE TRIBUNE
Fresh-Air Fund in Harlem. He is an impos-
tor of course. No one is authorized to collect
money for the Fund. A great many persons
who think that it is an excellent thing to send
poor children into the country for holiday,
have interested themselves in obtaining con-
tritutions from their acquaintance and friends
for that purpose, and have then handed the
sum over to THE TRIBUNE. But no regular
collecting agents have been sent out. People
who ale charitably inclined therefore should
not give money intended for the Fund to a
stranger; better hand him over to police
man.

Alexandria must be in much better sani-
tary condition than the other Egyptian cities
In which cholera has taken hold, or the au-
thorities suppress the truth in the dispatches
sent out. The disease has existed in Alex
andria since July %, but it has not seemed to
increase rapidly. The number of cases daily
has varied from four to fifteen and large
proportion of those who have died have been
Europeans. This is a suspicious circumstance,
for experience teaches that the ravages of the
disease in such countries as Egypt are many
times greater among the natives than among
the foreigners, who live under much better
conditions than the mass of the population.
There seems to be no doubt, however that the
plague in Egypt is rapidly dying out, and the
likelihood tnat it will not spread to Europe
grows stronger every day Yet the situation
would be more encouraging il we had any
assurance that the Alexandrian authorities were
telling the truth,

the Engishman. Mr. Porter writes in part of

gives many interesting statistics, among which
are figures showing the wages paid the blast

Germany receive dollar day. They can live
ON what they get, however, and their

Bill Nye's Hornet.

Last fall desired to add to my rare
collection large hornets nest. had
an embalmed tarsntula and her porce-
lain-llned nest, and I desired to add to
these the gray end airy home of the
hornet. Iprocure2 one of the large size
after cold weather, and hing it in my
cabinet by string. I forgot all about
it until the spring. When the warm
weather came something reminded me of
it. think it was hornet. He logged
my memory in some way and called my
attention to it. Memory is not located
where thought it was. It seemed as
though whenever he touched me 1t
awakened memory--a warm memory
with o red place all around it.
Then some more hornets came and be-
gan to rake up old personalities. I
remember that one Of them lit
on my upper lip. He thought
it was rosebud. When he went
away it looked like glandiolus
bulb. 1 wrapped wet sheet around it
to take out the warmth and re
duce the swelling so that 1
could go through the folding doors
and tell my wife about it
Hornets lit all over and walked aronnd
on my person. l did not dare to scrape
them off because they are so sensitive.
You have to be very guarded in your
conduct towards a hornet.
I remember once while was watching
the busy little hornet gathering honey
and June bugs from the bosom of rose,
years ago, stirred him up with club,
more as practical joke than anything
else, and lie came and lit on my sunny
hair-that was when 1 wore my own
hair--and he walked around through my
cleaning tresses quite while, making
tracks as large as watermelon all over
my head. II lie hadn't run ont of tracts
my head would have looked like load
of sum mer equashes. / remember / had
to thump my head against the smoke
house in order TO smash him, and l had
to comb him out with fine comb, and
wear waste paper basket two weeks for
| hat.
Much has been said of the hornet. hut
lie has an odd, quaint way after all that
is forever new.

that the army be authorized to aid in the

The children came from round the cor
ner and led him home again, Caleb still
tendcrly carrying Jack with his thin rag
ged handkerchief spread over the poor
torn body.
Hours after, the neighbors wondered
why there was not sound of movement
in the old mans room, and went up, fear
ing he might be i'll, and there was he
seated on the floor with Jacks body on
his knee, and the words of thanksgiving
still on his lips, "God, thank Thee, that
| have no eyes to see this DEVILS work"
Yes, he lives on, this old man, compan-
lonless and alone; the neighbors do what
they can for him, and he rarely wants
loaf Of bread or cup of tea now. Every
evening, as the clock strikes five, he gets
up from his rckety chair, opens his door
and stands listening for the pattcr and
scramble Of old Jacks feet up the carpet
less stairs. Silly, do you say?-he has
gone silly. 1t may be so; ! do not
know. Often we are Wisest when most
we are called foolish, and foolish when
We are thought to be most wise. | only
know that old Caleb stands daily, blind
and silent, at his open door listening to
the footsteps that will never return.
Some day perhaps, one may enter in
with message for him-the Angel of
