BERLIN, Feb. 23.-The increased duty on
cereals just adopted by the Reichstag is
the great subject Of political discussion.
The majority was greater than antici-
pated. The debates, which were con-
tinued during Eve days, and the significant
and interesting speeches by the Imperial
Chancellor, seem TO have won over many
who were opponents OF the measure. The
adherents ofprotective duties for agricul-
tnral products have largely increased in
since 1870. To assist in i'm

as q whole, without leading to any
noticeable increase in the price OF the
food absolutely necessary for The people
Is the problem which the Chancellor be-
ieyes he has solved by the increased tax.
At any rate, the. attempt had to be made.
Many opponents OF the measure still be-
lieye that il will result in failure. In this
case arenewed contest on the subject and
abolition Of theta& would be the result. |
In, the duties on wheatth the price OF bread

would write you something about our
trip to New Orleans and would have done
SO some days ago, but have not found
room enough to write in my hotel. Now
Twill give you short description of our
trip.
aWeleit Wheeling on Monday morning,
February 9th, at 0 o'clock, over the Pan.
Handle Railroad, in a special coach, one
otthe best they had. Our party consisted
Of about thirty ladies and gentlemen, all
ID splendid spirits. When we left It was
raining and continued to rain until we
reached Nenia, when 1t began to snow, and
when we,reached Cincinpati'it5wasve very
cold; intact, on Tuesdaytthe' 10th, inst,
Cincinnati iswas the coolest city.I ever re-
member of having visited. Part Of our
party went through from Wheeling with
out stop. and part remained over night at
Cincinnati, leaving the next day. On our
way on Tuesday to Louisville we took on
board our train party Of thirty Of the
officers and crew oi the steamer Hornet,
which struck on the crib OF one OF the
locks in the Kentucky river about 4 miles
from the Ohio river. Thepaptain told me
that no lives were lost, as all on board
were saved by swimming. They had
some thirty passengers. Itwas cold bath
with the Thermometer at l0' below zero.
Tell me not OF the beautiful Sunny
South" I'll have none OF 1t !. and from
what can gather my entire party are dis
gusted with II. Tho weather seems to us
to be colder and more disagreeable than
at Wheeling. After we left Nashville we
expected to find some fine weather, but
the farther South we went the more dlsa-
greeable II was. Il began TO snow about
ten miles north Of Decatur, Tenn, and
when we reached Birmingham, Ala, there
was five inches of snow; and sleighing
would have been excellent, and the peo-
pie would, no doubt have indulged In a
sleigh ride had they had sleighs.
We wero very much disappointed In the
country, as We expected to find fine
climate, fine plantations with everything
green and fresh. Instead we found the
most barren, ,uninvihng, disagreabls coun'
try.
The Exposition Is a grand success, SO
far as display is concerned. The States
are all represented in manner to do them
credit except West Virginia, must con.
fess that hid my face in shame when !
looked at our few Jumps Of coal and a
small stand with register and no person
near who seemed to have charge OF the
nothing that West Virginia presented.
think the sign should be taken down or
covered up SO our little State will not be
misrepresented, and the impression will

small corner OF the earth with few
Jumps Of coal. FRLix.
