of the National museum at Washlng-
ton. An Avalanche reporter called up
on him and examined a number OF the
relics. There were five barrels OF an
cient pottery, etc.. obtained from
mounds at Pecan Point, Ark, about
forty miles north of this city, and near
ly two barrels of similar class OF rel
les found on Tyronza river, in Arkan-
sas. Among those dug up at Pecan
Point are some of especial value from
an chronological point of view. Thus, a
human head nodded in earthenware,
about two-thirds life-size, and evidenc-
ing no little skill in the plastic art, is
believed by Col. Norris to be the only
specimen of its kind and degree OF per-
lection ever obtained in this country.
1t forms a vase, as do, in fact, nearly
all the pieces of earthenware obtained
from prehistoric remains. The face,
apparently a woman's, is almost round,
with small nose and well-shaped fea-
lures. The ears are pierced with hve
punctures, and traces OF pierces are
Visible on the nose. Did the prehistor-
ic mound-building woman wear nose
and earrings? Peculiar ornamentation
in the way of straight lines interlacing
each other run across the face from ear
to ear, producing fine effect when the
head is viewed from q slight distance.
On the forehead appears what ethnolo-
pists term q crown, but what to the I'M

and running from it backward to the
nape of the neck is q ''headdress" re-

THE DUTY ON SUGAR.

The Herald's devotion to the
theory Of free trade exceeds its de-
sire to relieve the people of the bur
den of taxation. 1t therefore declares
that the duty on sugar is the last
which should be removed. And yet
the Herald knows that il is the heav-
Jest tax which all the wage classes
in the country are now compelled to
pay. The great multitude of people
who are unable to enjoy all the lux
uries that the markets afford find in
sugar both luxury and necessary
article of diet. 1t has been ascer-
tanned that in the best factory board
ing houses, the sugar bill is equal to
the cost of bread. Whatever it is,
one third of the cost is duty, and
it is so much added TO the cost of
article, because the amount produced
in this country is of no account COM
pared with that which is imported,
and does not affect the price. Bread,
sugar, meat are the three articles
which cost the wage classes and those
who have small salaries the greater
part of their wages. The rate OF
sugar consumption in this country is
As pounds per capita. A family OF
six persons would consume 27c
pounds. The present duty increase:
the price one-third, Every time the
consumer purchases dollars WORTH
of sugar 1878 cents 60 to the Treas
ury of the United States. No won

THE DEFEAT OF THE MORRl-
SON TARIFF BILL.

Only two classes have cause to Ia
ment the defeat of the Morrison tariff
bill in the House-thc foreign man.
ufacturers and importers and that
faction ofthe Democratic party led by
Messrs. Carlisle, Morrison and Hurd.
The intelligent free trader cannot
deplore its failure since the Morrison
bill retains all of the Objectionable
features of protection. Those who
demand a reduction of the revenues
cannot regret the defeat of Mr.. Nor
rison because tits generally believed
that the bill will increase rather than
diminish the revenue derived from
the tariff. On this point Mr.. Hewitt
of New York, supporter of the bill,
in his speech of March a7, said:
"But what l fear in regard to the
bill reported by the committee on
Ways and Means (the Morrison billy
| is it may be delusive in that particu'
lar, and so far from being measure
of reduction of revenue it may turn
out to be a measure for increase OF
revenue"
If the prices of goods were the
same as they were year ago it would
be found that the present tariff rates
are IS per cent lower than those OF
preceding law. This change has
been followed by an increase OF i'm
ports and quite as large revenues as
were deprived from the previous
tariff. Cut them down 20 per cent
and the increase of importations
would undoubtedly give larger rev.
enue from the tariff than is realized
at the present time.
| But there are good reasons to re
ioice over the defeat of the Morrison
bill. In spite of the fact that oul
markets are overstocked foreign
manufacturers are pushing theil
goods into our markets in much
larger quantities than they were
year ago, when the surplus was small
err and the prices better. To get rio
of the present surplus, manufacturer
in this country are devising plans t.
reduce production by running thei
factories on short time. IT foreign
producers are pushing their surplu
stocks into our markets with the pres
{ ent duties, what will be the extent o
, their imports when the duty is re
|, duced 20 per cent? 1t does not re
quire much wisdom to predict YER
