A Bell Telephone story.

&s1c4NhHVe' ... u. .I..
Ms. Bell, wife Of Professor Graham
Bell, the electrician, was one OF the dea
pupils OF DR.. Gallaudet in Washington
Professor Bell first met her at q reception
at the College, and so expert was she in
reading speech by the motions Of the lips
that they convesed together for some time
without his discovering her infrmity. Al
last, walking through the conservatory,
where some OF the Chinese lanterns had
gone out, he made some remark requiring
an answer. But none was forthcoming, il
being not light enough for her to see the
movements ofhis lips. He repeated the
ply. Iystifad, he i soon escorted her bach
TO the parlor,- and then, in the brilliant
light, asked her why she had not answered
him; but his amazement was redoublet
tenfold at her ready reply: II have neyel
heard q sound in all my life."

II will be observed that there IS Q conslu
cradle difference, wages in the United
States being largely in excess, often more
than double. 1t mas long since been IN
derstood that dollar or its equivalent II
England does not buy twice as much as {
dollar in the United States, that, in fact
the single item Of house rent excepted
living is as cheap here as in England Thu
very product Of these Leicester looms, Oh
the like product Of American looms, car
be bought in this country as cheaply as In
England. This would not be true OF all
hosiery, but it is true Of medium and lower
grades, such as the British work people
wear, and that is the fact OF most impor'
lance. And this suggests two thoughts
First, that high wages and low prices are
not incompatible; second, that the British
manufacturer who grinds his operatives
down to the point Of mere existence makes
an enormous profit .sa -a
sti1 the English manufacturer is not
satisfied. He looks on the American
market and looks 10 invade 1t on equal
terms, and he thinks we are very mean
fellows because we won't let him in. Mr..
Larrimcr, Of the firm Of Pool, Larrimer &
Fabberer said to Mr.. Porter: ave can
make goods cheaper than you can, and
give US half q chance and we will beat you
out Of your home markets; but do say
that you don't giveus half chance. You
are the richest country on earth, and why
can't you give us q chance to share your
wealth." Suppose, now, that we were to
give Mr.. Larrimer's firm "half chance"
and the same to all the hosiery firms Of
England-what then?
.a Mr.. Larrimer is right when he says that
they could beat US out Of our home
markets. Having comparatively small
foreign market, what would become Of the
American labor and capital now engaged
in the American hosiery industry And
what should we have gained by removing
that large industry to England? The
American farmer will at once see how the
changed conditions would affect him, in
the demand for his wool, his wheat, his
corn, whatever he raises for food or raj
ment. ..'....,... .n.. "a.
The American Consular Agent at Leices-
ter, an Englishman, deserves well Of his
country, referring TO Pool, Larrimer & Fab
berer dropped this little morsel Of com.
fort; "Why, bless me, didn't they enlarge
their factory because their New York
agents had said Democratic Congress had
been elected and the tariff would come
down 2 But now It turns out that the tariff
on their class Of goods (woolen hosiery
has gone up, and they say there is no de-
pendence to be placed upon you Yankees
anyhow; and Pool, Larrimer & Fabberer
think that you are all wrong; but think
you are deuced clever lot Of dogs after all,
and you look out for No. l." It pays US to
to look out for MOL, and to beware Of
Democratic Congresses. /

woRnnxaToS, June 1e.-The above date

which was my stopping place for short
time on recent afternoon. 1t Is situated
on the West Fork River, and on the line
Of the W. Va. & P. R.R. There seems TO
be boom in favor Of this road at present.
The surveyors are pushing their work
RAPIDLY, and hope to complete 1t by the
first day ofAugust. At present they are
somewhere in the wilderness Of Monongalia
county. There is much bad feeling against
That county, based by her refusal to aid
in securing this road by voting o loan or
subscription TO the capital stock oil the
Company.

been engaged in sheep shearing. Wool
growing has become one OIL the leading oc'

Interests, but all such fears seem 70 have
been groundless, as buyers have been Oh;

The spoke business. The persons go to

the timber Is worked up and the calcula-
lions made, the farmer finds that his tim
Der Is gone and not enough money re-
ceiyed in return to pay for cleaning up
the tops. While travelling over the county
we found one farmer who had sold biz
timber, and when the company paid him

Mr.. Porter has just written to the New

cry trade which, will once more call down
on him the anathemas Of free trade orators
and organs. He finds that more than one
half Of the men employed in this industry
receive 81 q week each. Some Of the
women receive as little as Sl'95 per week
Taking returns sent from Leicester to the
Commercial Department OF the Board Of
Trade, London, and comparing them with
figures furnished by the Massachusetts
Bureau Of Statistics, Mr.. Porter is able to
make an instructive comparison. gy7a '
