| Workingmonl There IL danger ahead
The partisans OF free trade In Europe.
especially of Great Britain, France, Bel
giun, and other manufacturing countries
OF that continent, stand ready to pour
out money in floods to break down the
barrier erected by republican legislation
between the pauper labor Of those coun-
tries and the well.paid labor Of the
United States. Evidence Ia not wanting
that money is already being sent into this
country for this purpose. The Critic Is
Informed that democrats have been heard
to boast on tho streets Of Washington that
the democratic national committee would
be provided with all the money they want
for the purposes of this campaign; that
their treasury had been fillod aud would
be rofilled, whenever necessary, by the
free-trade leagues and clubs of Europe

American Tourists.

Prudent travellers arc keeping away
from tho south of France, and all tho
Mediterranean cities will miss the tourists
that visit them in tho autumn. As yet
the cholera has not made its appearance
at Rome OF Naples, but lnasmuch as the
filth which furnishes the medium by
which the germs Of the disease are propa.
gated always exists in those cities they
can scarcely expect to escape tho dread
visitation. Tho italian poor arc not
distinguished for cleanliness. and the
spread of the plague at Toulon is attrib-
uted In great part to the untidy habits
of the Italian population.
But whether the Italian cities escape
tho cholera or not the effect Of tho panic
at Marseillos and Toulon will destroy
business all tho same. Tourists will keep
away from the shores Of the Mediterra-
mean. Hotel keepers and cab drivers will
and it bad year, and oven the mendi-
cants will foel that something has inter
fered with their revenues. Americans
upend moro money abroad than any othor
people, and their liberal disbursements
constitute no inconsiderable part of tho
income of the thrifty shopkespers oi
southern Europe. Foreign artists will
lose their best customers,
Tho city of Paris will suffer greater loss
than any other European capital. The
constant commupication with harsoilles
will bring the cholera to Paris, and the
importation will go on as surely and
almost as constantly M the exchange OF
merchandise, but tho excellent sanitary
regulations may prevent tho disease from
becoming epidemic The victims who
bring tho germs of tho disease with them
will bo isolated, aud when they dio thoir
bodies will bo disposed of So quickly that
few persons will know that the postilencs

Of gayety and fashion. The American
residents may not leave, but there will be
a very perceptible diminution in thl
number Of visitors.

Alabama is represented in tho United
States senate by two gentlemen who 'be-
lieve in cheap labor. They got thoir
political training in the days whom nearly
all the work in Alabama was done by male
and female laborers, who received their
victuals and clothes in return, and moth
ing more. Probably neither Of these
distinguished senators would like to SOC
this system OF cheap labor restored to
Alabama, but both still cling to tho ideas
and theories which wero the legitimate
outgrowth of slavery. Tho southern
planter wanted to olothe his slaves in tho
cheapest fabrics that he could buy, and
he regarded it as u great hardship that n
duty should DO levied on imported goods
for tho benefit of class of laborors in tho
north with whom he had no sympathy,
aud whose voting power he regarded as n
menace to southern society and southern
institutions. Mn Morgan and Mr.. Pugh
doubtless were FREQ traders twenty-five
years ago, because they supposed that
better prices If her manufactured pro-
ducts wore admitted into tho United
States FREQ of duty. They may think so
yet. but q majority of the people of Ala.
bama have como to different conclusion.
The Alabama delegation to the late Chi
Alabama senator's and IL was composed
entirely of protcctionists. Gen. Pope
| Walker was the Alabama member of tho
committee on resolutions and did what
he could to prevent the convention from
committing itself to free trade in its plat
form. Mr.. A. S. Colyar. editor OF tho
| Nashville american, aud strong
protectionist, was SO impressed with
tho fight made by the Alabama
delegation against FREQ trade that he re-
ferred to the matter in letter to his
paper, and incidentally remarked that
Senators Morgan and Pugh feared that
protection to tho iron industries of Ala
bsma might "put up tho price Of labor"
| Senator Pugh (who served with Mr..
Colyar In the confederate congress) was
indiscreet enough to wrfeo him letter.
complaining of the manner in which his
position on the tariff question had been
stated, and insisting that his anti-tariff
speech in tho senate last winter was in
ontire accord with tho democratic plat
form. Mr.. Colyar publishes Mr.. Pugh's
letter, and also reply from himself, in
which both Dir. Pugh and Mr.. Morgan
are dealt with according to thoir desserts.

IsExoRApLE fate Drought two steam
ships tasotaof on the Spanish coast and
bosh went down. The Spanish steamer
Gijon struck tho British steamer Laxham
amidships, cutting her nearly in two,
and smashing hor own bow so that she
only remained a1oat few minutes after
the Laxham sank. A thick fog prevailed,
and both vessels were going slowly and
blowing their whistles. OF late collisions
at sea have beon unusually numerous,
and in almost every instance the vessels
came together when thoy were apparently
doing their best TO steer clear of each
other. 1t would seem that tho mistakes
and bad Judgment of ship captains are
more fatal than the ordinary chances
which sometimes bring vessels together
on the high seas, The tragic element on
tore largely into this latest ocean disaster.
Whom the boats were launched from tho
Gijon it was literally fight for lifO. and
only the strongest and those who had
deadly Weapons now survive.

THE republican perfectionists who arc
assuming to manage the Cleveland cam
paign are afraid to trust their candidate
to write n letter of acceptance. He has
been repeatedly admonished that there
is no necessity for discussing political
principles, and that few lines formally
accepting tho nomination is all that is
necessary. The New York Herald takes
the trouble to furnish him with the word
measure'hpnt Of tho letters written by
Lincoln and Grant under the same cir-
cumstances for his guidance. Tho truth
is that the perfectionists ore in mortal
terror lest Cleveland should mako fool
OF himself. He has had SO little ex-
periolce in dealing with national ques-
tions that there is no telling what ab-
surdity might croop into his ietter should
ho attompt to play the statesman. They
do not care to see either his literary style
or his political views put into contrast
with the splendid performance of Mr.
Blaine.

RECENT rains have broken the pro-
Ionged drouth in the Ohio valley and the
prospect for corn, which was very poor
during the greater part Of the present
month, has greatly improved. An aver
age corn crop is expected. Tobacco has
suffered severely, and in some localities
the rain came too lato TO save it. A
drouth now prevails in Texas which is
greatly retarding the growth of cotton,
and may almost entirely destroy the
crop. should rain come within tho next
two weeks fair crop may yotbe made.

New bOnnets that look wintry yet
have dash of spring about them are
made of silk embroidered net puffed
over gold cloth crowns, and the brim
is made up CT rows of small flowers
thickly set without foliage, such as
forget-me-nots, daisies or mignonette.
A group of tiny red birds is placed
just inside the brim Of a red velvet
bonnet, which is Of the close princesse
shape, except just at the left side,
where the brim pokes outward,
as if to take in the birds. A bonnet
of red quilts is a curious novelty, the
crown being of the red quilts and the
front trimmed with red ostrich tips
Braids OF faneiful colors compose
many bOnnets.
Hosiery shows several new depart
ures. Among them vertical stripes,
Highland plaides in charming com
bination of color, and shot effects to
match the new silks.
Black lace aprons over gold or red
surah, are a new English fashion
They are fastened by silver clasps at

Wedding Presents.

From the Philadelphia d. ~ Times.
So long as the wedding of Queen
Victoria's family were confined TO her
sons and daughters she could COM
mand money from her taX-paying sub
jects to give them an outfit. But now
thu he, grand children have become
eligible they must look to some
other source for the money they could
never earn.
AS the Princess Wet ria of Hesse Is
soon to be married, the queens house
hold have been asked for c0ntribu-
lions for the purpose OF making up a
goodly gift. These contributions are
purely voluntary, but Mr.. Labouchere
intimates that any person refusing to
make a donation will find very long
mark against his or her name. AS a
consequence, a good deal Of energy is
| beng manifested in curt circltS, and
| the future journal Of some Madame
| D'Arblay may contain an interesting
pal agraph about the methods re
| sorted to.
If the queen should need any helI
to secure the necessary sum there art
in this country several gentlemen o.
experience as the raisers of voluntary
contributions who are temporarily u
of employment. body can question
the efficiency of Jay Hubbeil or D. B
Henderson or S. w. Dorsey in thi
field. IfQueen Victoria can give then
employment in similar field the,
will no doubt do good work. Their
is no danger that any one will objec
to their accepta nee of employment un
der foreign potentate.
Let the queen send for them AM
give them requisite authority and tn
voluntary contribution will be raise
before shehas time to think about
and her grand daughter will be mad
