on the ISSUE of free trade vs.. tariff pro-

defeated at the polls, for there is no
class of voters whose minds are moro
tainted with the tariff heresies OF pro-
lection than the laboring classes, who
arc most injured by them. But on this
issue give ma defeat again and again
rather than a victory gained against tho

Congress recently have been hold with
view to procuring some legislation

ever be reached in the regular order.
Delegates Brents, Ouray and Post have
devise d a scheme of asking the house
to set two days in each month on which
to consider territorial bills. Several
leading members, among them Rec OF

Senator Vance in his minority report
from the committee on foreign affairs,
expresses the opinion that Germany
has right to exclude American hog
products on the ground that they are
unwholesome, if she deems proper, and
this government is not justified in i'm
peaching her motives. If it be true,
continues the report, that pork is to
any extent unwholesome we should en-
deavor by a rigid system of inspection
to remove the cause Of complaint. II it
be that the fear CT trichinosis is only
pretext, and that the real reason fo- ex-
cluding our products is desire to pro-
tect their own producers, then we are
the last people on earth who ought to
complain after surround ding ourselves
for more than twenty years with pro-
tective tariff with walls so high as to
exclude virtually all products of Gsr-
many which compete with ours. 1t is
rather late for us to advocate retaliation
against government which merely
follows our example.

Prang's Chrtstmas and New Year Cards.
We have received generous samples of
Prang & Co.'S Christmas and New Years
cards for the season. The cards of this firm
fill place in the observance of Christmas
and New Years, which nothing else supplies.
The public would now scarcely know how to
get through the holidays without them.
They are beautiful. are not expensive, and
are priced by those to whom they are sent,
more than many presents much more costly.
They are admirably adapted to the time and
occasion, as flowers are to fields and gardens
in the summer time and to the hsppiest
events in life. We think the cards offered BY
Prang & Co. at this time surpass in design,
artistic skill fitness and completeness any
previously placed by them before the public.
Of those which we have before us there is
not one specimen which is not praiseworthy,
and some of them are marvels of artistic
workmanship and design. OF course they
are graded in quality to suit all ages and
conditions, but all have the true Christmas
tone, however inexpensive they may be.
Twenty. three of the leading artists of the
country, in designing works of this kind,
have done their best in these productions
We predict for them great favor and great
sale, and we know that wherever they go
they will give pleasure and thsnkfalness, and
make more cheerful thousands of homes
through the whole year, upon which we are
soon to enter. They may be found for sale
at the book stores in all our cities and larger
towns. or may be ordered direct from the
publishers, L. Prang Co., Boston. We
have from the same publishers an illuminated
Thackeray Calendar for 1885, with selections
for every day in the year. handsome and
convenient article for household and Office
use.
