A Phenomenal Maine Girl.

The antagonist of modern advanced
education, if there be any, should have
heard little lecture that q gentleman
gave on the street Wednesday morning.
The question had arisen as to the ten
dency of modern advanced education to
create disgust for mapual labor. The
gentleman told an aut{ 4 NJ "A young
lady. who is very w6Il xnbWn in Lewis
ton and Auburn, and Mo has had a
liberal education in America, a course
of study in the German schools, and
who has since taught in some of the
leading schools of this State and others,
came home to her fathers farm this
summer. The hours hung rather
heavily. 'Father, your office needs
shingling," says she one day. The next
day the shingles were on the spot, and
the young lady proposed to have some
fun and combine it in legitimate way
withsolid work. She built the stagings
geometrically, ran the lines after Euclid,
and shingled the Office as neatly and ex-
peditiously as the village professor of
shingling himself could have done. She
pulled down the staging and erected it
again over the ell to the house, and, in
spite of parental injunction, shingled
the ell ard a sloping she'd attached. She
practiced music for pleasure in the
meantime, however, and read German
for pastime. Nothing" added the
gentleman, 'would be further from her
own inclination than notoriety."-

Free traders got no comfort from Mr..
Porter's New York Tribune Letters on in
dus.rial England. They are getting still
lees, II that can be, from his letters on in
dustrial Germany.
On his way to visit the famous Krurp
works at Essen, MI. Porter talked with a
well-informed German who accompanied
him, and be gives US the main points Of the
conversation. Mr.. Osann, editor Of &ahl
und Eien, and Secretary OF the Iron and
Steel Association Of Germany, says. that
twelve years ago he delivered before
an association largely made up OF German
manufacturers an address presenting the
doctrines Of Henry O. Carey, and his
hearers "hardly regarded the address seri.
ously." But four years OF protection have
changed public opinion and to-day nobody
at Essen will emile at the great American
political economist, Henry @. Carey"
Carey advocated the development Of home
industries in preference to the development
Of foreign industries at American expense
In four years Of protection in Germany
wages in the iron and steel industry have
increased nearly twenty per cent, and the
number Of workers thirty three per cent
There has been some increase in the cost o.
living, for more people at work earning
better wages will always increase the de
mand; but house rent is no higher and the
working classes are well pleased with the
change. There is q general improvement
in their condition. MIR. 0ssan makes this
very pertinent remark: "True, the prices
OF anything, excepting black bread, matter
ed little to the So per cent, OF men who
were employed and nearly starving during
the free-trade regime"
Free traders are in the habit OF keeping
in the background the vital truth that Low
prices are OF little interest to men who have
money to buy the cheap commodities
We hear a great deal about the cheaper
living in England, to say nothing oil Ire
land, where free trade has blighted the in
dustries OF d whole people. Yet English
men are glad to come to this land OF pro
lection, glad to pay American prices, vel
knowing thai work Is to be had here, and
that a days work in America buys more
than a days work in England. This is thu
standard to measure by, and this is TIT
conclusiye test.

Twenty.eight wild men, six wild women
and four anClad children, 0 n Of whom
had ever been out Of the mountains, were
led by Major Llewellyn down to a station
on the sante Fe Railroad q few days ago.
When a train doomed in the band was

peated. The brawny fellows, who empty.
handed would face a grizzly, were afraid to
step into the cars, and thesquawsand tleir

lords, But they were induced to board the
train, and fat on their faces between the
seats this remarkable band OF Apaches was
horne into santa Fe to take part in the
tertio.millennlal parade. No part Of the
procession was 80 striking. Leonine heads
set on shapely, robust frames, with
massive shoulders and chests full

During the second day OF their visit a

The Iri.n Infornler,. Fnle.

The assassination Of Carey, the Irish in
former, was cold. blooded murder, not to be
excused on any ground. But it was the
very thing that Carey had helped to plan
for others, and he lived long enough to see
the fruits OF his bloody work.. He was
no far on the inside Of the conspiracy
to "remove" the representatives OF the
Crown in Ireland that he was able to give
awav the whole plot and bring to the gal
lows the men with whom he had acted
English blood or Irish blood, 1t was all the
same to Carey. He consulted his own in
terest alone. He was bold enough to &c
into . Job to murder ~Ekglishmen; coward
enough to turn iniormer and reveal the
names Of his associates in the plot. Whal
his sensation was as n after anothero
his fellow conspirators was strung up, II
would be- interesting to know. 1.-The vert
not dead to all feeling conscience mus'
have tormented him.
Mankind will never have anything but
contemptuous hatred for a craven informer
The Cateys may escape the gallows, the
knife and the bullet, but there will be nc
spot in all the earth that will give them
safe asylum from the scorn Of ~decent'peo'
pie. And when they tall, as this man fell
few tears o. compassion will be shed upon
their graves. Any one Of the assassins who
expiated his ofFense on the gaIlows is q
hero beside Carey, and every honest mar
instinctively knows why.
Carey's late is what was to be expected
1t would have been the unexpected ii he
had been allowed to live six months out Of
England. The movement to which Caven'
dish and Burke fell victims is not dead.
All who were in It have not been brought
to light. There are men enough to follow
every Carey to the ends Of the earth and
make him pay the penalty. They realize
that they can not afford to let informing
become a safe and profitable industry in
Ireland, and they will always do what they
can to check 1t.
It must be confessed that their
ner OF going about it is heoric, though by
no means to be admired. Conscience in
time would have killed Carey, but that was
too slow u process for the avengers. All
things considered this is the least remark
able chapter in the bloody history OF the
Irish trials.
