The semI.ocntennial OF the ouadiuE Of
the American anti-slavery society, Uelc.
Orated yesterday in Philadelphia, recalls
q very important period in tho history of
tho nation. On December 4, 1888
nifty nine men, having convictions on
tho slavery question and the courage
to aVow them, assembled in the old hall al
Fifth and Walnut streets, Philadelphia,
formulated their views on this absorbing
topic and launched them on public that
had little timeto devote to extending sym
pathy to the negro. To day but four
Survivors remain of that convention, but
to them is given the happy privilege OF
seeing all their most sanguine hopes real.

As is generally the case, the report Of
the secretary of the treasury Is more
interesting, comprehensive and valuable
document than the presidents message.
He deals at length with the question Of
revenue, taxation and public expenditure
which is at once the leading issue before
the country, the one of greatest concern
to its material interests, the most com.
plicated and that upon which all parties
are divided. 1t is curious to note the
wide divergence of views between the
president and his financial secretary.
While the former, true to the fundamen'
tai principles Of his party, rejoicing in
large revenues and lavish expenditures,
declines to recommend any material
dimunition of taxation, Secretary Fol.
ger unquestionably favors abolition Of
the tax on fermented liquors, and low
erlng Of the duties on sugar, mOlaSses,
and other articles of general consumQ-
tiOn.

The Wagner & Rand Hardware Co.
has received the agency for what is known
as Cushing's Patent Corrugated Chop
ping Knife, which is guaranteed to be
eminsntly superior to any other article
of the kind heretofore produced. For
the rapid production of that great Amer
lean standby, hash, for instance, the
beauties of zigzag or corrugated edge
on choppiug knife become at once APP
parent. So quickly does it reduce the
toughest of boarding house meats to the
required degree of tineness that the cook
will be compelled to add few squares
of sole leather or some other equally
tough substance to keep up the reputa-
ton of the great commodity, which by
the use of this new fashioned knife is cut
go fine that it resembles butter in consis-
tency, and the trouble will be to supply
enough old meat and grizzle to meet the
demand. And then, too, the bill of fare
can be changed SO readily, and instead of
the old monotonous question, "Hash,
sir?" such variations may be rung in a.
clash, straight hash, or corrugated
hash" that will add to the
reputation of every boarding house in
the land. 1t is great improvement, and
housewives should call at either of the
w. & r. Hardware Co.'S. stores and ex-
anime its merits.

have originated in hay shaft leading

how it was started is question that will
