Tho Jeannetto investigation.

Capt. Hampstead. of New London, Conn,
who has made two voyages to the Arctic
region, was examined as an expert on Arctic
matters by the Jeanette investigating COM
mittee yesterday.
He said he would not have tried to 60 to
Wrangell Land it, to do SO, required him to
put his ship in ice He would have cruised
long the barrier of the ice and then cut q
piece in u large leo foe and placed the ship
in it. This was the plan pursued in Green
land waters He did not know whether it
ever was attempted in North Siberian waters.
Witness said the Jeanette was the worst
possible model for the service intended, but
on objection by counsel this statement was
ruled out
After the ship went down witness said tho
course of the retreat should have been q
straight one to the nearest mainland. This
was also ruled out on objection.
Mr.. Jackson was recalled, and said he had
written to the Herald that tho sailors told him
that but for Lieut.. Danenhower they must
inevitably have perished during the gale.
The cross-examination of DIR. Collins was
continued. He reattirmed his statements that
Lieut.. Lemly, at the Riggs house, had told
him he would object to any question which
might reflect on any dead man. No reporter
was present ut the interview to his knowl-
edge. He also reaiiirmed his statement that
Lieut.. Lemly told him it was Secretary Chan
dler's wish that the investigation be hushed
up and also stated that he was told the
charges against his brother would not be pre-
sented to the court of inquiry unless he per-
sisted in his course. The evidence witness
gave of the conversations that he had with
Newcomb was also reiterated, and he declared
that he believed Newcomb had willfully mis-
| stated those conversations.

The Grnnt Enilure.

There can bo but little doubt that Gen
Grants three sons have lost everything
which they held in their own right, whether
acquired by purchase, gift, or inheritance
and good deal that belonged to their
friends besides. The Indebtedness of tho sus-
pended banking firm of Grant & Ward is
sufficiently large to swallow up everything
that Gen. Grant owns, although his friend,
Mr.. George w. Childs, says that the title to
his house in New York and his cottage at
Long Branch is in Mrs. Grants name, and
this property is therefore out OF the reach OF
the creditors of the broken bank. The fund
of $25O,oOO contributed by his friends four
years ago 10 invested in securities which are
held in trust and cannot be touched by cred
itors. From this fund he gets an annuity of
$4,000.
Tho assignments made by Frederick D.
Grant and Jesse K, Grant on their individual
account show that they both are largely in
indebted to their relatives, some of whom
are named as preferred creditors. jesse X.

Whether remnant of Gen, Grants estate
has been saved or not, the American people
will not be content to see him spend the
remainder of his days in Strengthened circum'
stances. By reason of his great services tC
his country he is entitled to bo supported
by that country 80 long as he lives. The bill
introduced by Mr.. Edmunds to place him OF
the retired list of the army ought to be passed
promptly, not because Gen. Grant is in any
immediate need, but it is fitting time fo
congress to testify ita appreciation of hi
estimable services to his country.

Proposed Tariff LegislntIon.

Representative Hewitt, of New York, will
introduce in the house on Monday next
bill to amend. simplify, and make clearer
tho present tariff law, with view to obviat-
ing some of the difficulties experienced by
the treasury department in constituting and
carrying out its provisions. He has some
thoughts, also of incorporating in his pro-
posed bill series Of provisions intended to
reduce tho tariff, but he will not come to
final decision upon this point until he shall
have had a conference with other democrats
in the house.
Mr.. Hewitt said last night that If he should
decide to make his bill tariff reduction
measure the changes to be made by it would
not be 80 radical as those which would have
boen made by the Morrison bill. When he
came to Washington at the beginning of con-
gress he brought with him tariff bill which
would have been introduced, had not Mr.
Morrison offered the measure prepared by
himself. His (Mr. Hewitt's) bill provided for
reduction of the revenue from customs
duties, amounting to about S70,000,00O. 1t
placed on the free list a number Of articles in
addition to those made duty free by Mr.. Nor

Mr.. HENRY WATTERsoN, in an editor
ial copied at length in this issue of The
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,, lays down the
democratic doctrine on the tariff question.
There has been a disposition in some quarters
to sneer at Mr.. Watterson as an impulsiye
man who allows his enthusiasm to run away
with his discretion, This is mere afIectation,
In his vigorous denunciation of the
protective tariff, and of all who stand
by it, Mr.. WattersOn is speaking
the sentiments of the demOcratic party
OF the south and west. They want the
tariff reduced to u revenue basis, and this
they regard as tho paramount issue in the
presidential campaign. Mr.. Watterson is
entirely truthful when he says that the
democratic party cannot be trusted to
maintain the protective system which
it has denounced as masterpiece Of

THE SILENT SERMON.
Deaf and Dumb Audience Reads From
the Preaoher's Fingers.

Had broadsides of artillery bolched forth
at short intervals in front of Ascension church
during the service there last night no inter-
ruption would have been caused by the
laundering reports, although minister stood
upon the pulpit and preached the Gospel to
a large audience. The minister was
Rev. Thomas Gallaudet, rector Of st. AIMS
church for deaf mutes in New York. The
audience was small silent world of deaf
mutes, with but o few others who could either
hear or speak. Tho minister was attired in
clerical robes Of black and white, and seemed
much engrossed in the work before him. He
spoke silently of the religious work being
| done by the Protestant Episcopal church
among the $4,000 deaf mutes in the
United States. His words were shrugs
of tho shoulders, expressions of tho
| face and rapid motions of the fingers and
hands. There was painful silence during
the service, and the whistling of small boys
| who passed on the pavement without echoed
and re-echoed through the high archod and
vaulted interior while the minister preached
the gospel or prayed. AtIfrst he gesticulated
wildly like an animated political speaker
then he assumed the atti-
changing to tho act of imploring, with
upturned eyes and hands. From that to a
mechanic, silently explaining the curves and
squares of some intricate piece of machinery,
| Win both lace ana hand5, then ike corner
| loafer, shaking his fists or waving his hands
in political argument. During tho whole
there was n death-like silence. Again the
reverend gentleman appeared as some weird
magician, keeping his audience spellbound by
his mysterious fourishes, blows, mods, and
grimaces.
The prayer was perhaps the most impress
sive part of the whole service. During its
rendition the large organ played subdued
and very solemn music. Rev. Mr.. Gallaudet
knelt facing the audience. The mutes knelt,
but did not cover their faces because it was
necessary to hear" the prayer with their
eyes. The minister began by placing his
hands together as childron do when they
begin to say the Lords prayer at bedtime He
then bowed, outstretched his hands, and indi-
Gated by his facial expressions that he was
praying. The deaf and dumb audience simply
looked and bowed their heads at intervals.
The service concluded with music, which the
main portion of the audience did not hear.
Rev. DIR. Elliott rendered several prayers,
which were translated to the mutes. Among
tho audience were many deaf and dumb gem
tlemen and ladies, who are employed in the
departments of the government.

MRS. sARITA HUTCHINSS

A lily, blessing all the fowery mead
With her serene and modest loveliness,
Was loved by angels paying gentle heed
Unto the Aowr with heavenly caress.
Till, loI u cruel envy came on them
When. in bright but hapless vernal hour,
They saw upon the graceful parent stem
A little bud reach to the mother howr;
And fearful they lest this sweet bud should share
The glory OF the lily they oaress'd.
They plucked the twan-the bud and lily fair
Aud bore them to the Eden of the bless'd.
The vernal mead is sombeT now and drear;
But angel voices seem to fill the air
With alleluias that the lilies dear
Bloom in Gods glorious garden over there.

JUDGE HAaNER gave notice yesterday of
change of one of the rules in tho circuit
Jourt, for which we think he deserves COM

equitable reason why the foreign litigant
should have precedence on the calendar over
the domestic litigant, and in doing away
with the discrimination against the latter
class, which has heretofore prevailed in this
regard, Judge HaEner has done wisely, All
