Treasury Tariff Bill.

The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press says that conserva-
tive Democratic leaders have held several
conferences lately on the tariff, and have
agreed to present a bill to Congress next
winter providing for reduction of Gus
toms duties to the extent of $40, coo, 600.
According TO this correspondent the bill
will be sent to Congress from the Treas
ury Department, and Will be accompa-
MED by statement showing where the
reductions cnn be made. 1t is alleged
that experts are at work under the direo-
tion Of the Secretary Of the Treasury max
ing out this statement.
There may or may not be some founda-
ton to this story about a treasury tariff
bill. No doubt the tariff question was
discussed by the Democratic leaders
when they happened to meet each other
in Washington during the present sum-
mer, but there is not, perhaps, much
ground for asserting that there has been
anything like conference.
The Democratic leaders admit, OF
course, that they must make an effort to
reduce the tariff during the coming ses-
sion of Congress, and they would likes
doubtless, TO agree upon some plan that
would insure harmonious action. The
difficulty in reaching any agreement,
however, is in the fact that the few Dem
Ocrats who follow Mr.. Randalrs lead,
while they admit the necessity for a re-
duction, are very apt to be found IN har.
mony with the Republicans when the
time for action arrives. IL 1t is true, how.
ever, that the Secretary OF the Treasury
has undertaken to frame tariff bill, he
may be in possession of Information that
justi6es him in assuming that Mr.. Ran
dali aud his followers have reached the
conclusion that a reduction of the tariff is
absolutely necessary, and that therefore
they must assist their party in securing it,

A One-sided Game.
From the London Truth.


An amusing story is told of an American
millionaire who recently hOnored London
with visit AS he was walking down one OF
the busiest OF our streets one morning his eye
was attracted by an organ gr nder who was
solemnly and lugubriously playing at the cor
ner Of q street. The top of the organ was
covered with smooth green cloth, and ltwas
this green cloth that once appealed TO the in

and that thought gambling. He fancied him
self in the presence OF some peripatetic rOu-
lette player, and he could not re lst the temp
tation of taking turn. So he stopped OPP
poste the musical Italian and tossed a gold
coin cheerIly on the green surface of the
hurdy -gurdy. The 3stonlshed foreigner
stopped playing, grasped the coin.
pocketed it, removed his hat, grunted
out some voluble Tuscan thanks, and
resumed his music. Lost that time" the
millionaire murmured to himself, and pro-
dnced another coin. He tossed it again upon
the board, from which 1t was again no less
promptly and no less gratefully removed by
the delighted musician. The millionaire
shook his head, "Ah' luck's against me-" he
remarked, IS he sent third gold coin to
CLEAN for moment upon the green surface
before it rapidly disappeared in the Italians
pocket. Another and another coin went the
same way, without wearing out the patience
of the American. But at last, when some six
sovereigus had transferred themselves from
his keeping to that of the rgan-grnder, the
American bent forward, and in tone of the
intensest curiosity whispered in the ear of
the amazed Italian, "Say, stranger, what do

BUSINESS METHODS.
Opening of the Commercial Ysar-How

Opening of the Commercial Ysar-HOw
to Make a Good beginning.
It is customary in the cotton growing
States to date the business year from
Sept. 1. Everyone looks forward to the
time when the business pulse quickens
ana new life is given to trade. One fthe
means used to give business a good start
st the beginning OF the business year is
advertising. The ente ,prising mer-
chant uses the columns of the news
paper TO inform his patrons that he is
still in the land Of the living; that he has
weathered the dull seas IN, and again
solicits their trade. The newspaper pub
Usher uses the opening of the season to
review the business of the past year, and
to give his city a frst-class boom.
Trade editions are published and widely
distributed for the benefit largely Of those
who advertise in them.
In such editions business men, whether
merchants, mechanics or manufacturers,
ought to bring their business before the
public.
Such advertising may not, in every case,
be productive of immediate results, but
1t will give their business houses stand
ng abroad that they cannot otherwise OBJ
tain.
No enterprising business man OF this
city who expects to prosper can afford to
leave an announcement of his business
out of the Trade Edition of the MORNING
NEWS. This edition will be issued on
Sept. 3. No efforts win be spared to make
It such an edition as every Savannahiar
will have reason to be proud Of.

That Barbiere Business.

Joseph Barbiere, OF Philadelphia, lived
in Memphis before the war. Being a
Southern man he joined the Confederate
army and was faithful soldier. His
family remained in Memphis when the
city was occupied by the Federal troops,
and did many acts Of kindness TO sick and
wounded Federal soldiers. They were
known as Confederate sympathisers and
were humane, kind-hearted people. After
the war Barbiere was rather reck-
less man for three or four years and was
not as loyal as perhaps he might have been.
| Few Tennesseeans were, and they cannot
| be blamed much by those who know how
they were treated by the scallawag and
carpet-bag rulers OF that State. He pub
Iished a little book which contained a
| good many things which were not only
unnecessary but foolish.
Barbiere then reformed, grounded the
arms of his rebellion" and moved TO
Pennsylvania, where he had friends who
aided him in securing position on the
editorial staff of Philadelphia journal.
He also cultivated a small farm near the
city. His conduct after he went North
would desire.
Among his many friends was Gen. w.
w. II. Davis, who is a Mexican war vet
eran and was a gallant Union soldier dur
ing the late war, and whose record is
faultless. Gen. Davis was few weeks
ago appointed Pension Agent at Philadel-
phia in place OF a notorious Republican
partisan. In organizing his Office help
Gen. Davis appointed Barbiere to a clerk
ship. Barbiere's duty was simply to copy
vouchers.
The ousted pension agent and his
friends were furiously wrought up, and
resolved to have revenge on the admins
tration and on Gen. Davis. There was
nothing they dared attack except the
Barbiere appointment. The Republican
papers represented that an unrepentant
"rebep' was passing upon the pensions
of Union soldiers. The Mugwump papers
took up the senseless cry. Then a num-
Der of Grand Army posts, in violence of
the letter and spirit Of the constitution Of
the order they are pledged to uphold, IN
huenoed by Republican partisans of the
worst kind, passed resolutions condemn
ing Davis and the administration, and
demanding Barbiere's removal.
Barbiere promptly rendered his resigna
ton, but Gen. Davis refused to accept it
until the clamor had about died out. He
was sustained by Gen. Black, Commits
sioner of Pensions. and by the admins
tration. The Republicans now claim that
they have gained great victory be-
cause they think they drove a copying
clerk, who is most excellent gentleman,
from his place. Every reasonable and
just man in the country, however, must
say that the wreath Of victory really be-
longs to Gen. Davis and Barbiere. Their
course has been brave, generous, and dig
nified. The conduct of their enemies has
been extremely disreputable, and will re-
bound to their own hurt. 1t does seem
that even these Pennsylvania Republicans
must very soon become heartily ashamed
of themselves.

Business Depression in England.

Senator Edmunds, on hb return from
England a day or two ago, was asked
about the condition OF business in Eng
land. His answer was that it was "de-
pressed-very much depressed" Every
where that he went in England he made
inquiries respecting the condition of bust
ness, and everywhere the answer was the
same. He was asked if he had inquired
as TO the cause Of the depression. He
answered that the cause was OverprOduc-
ton. England has gone on manufactur-
ing" ne said, "until she has glutted all
her markets" In answer 10 a question
respecting the remedy for the existing
condition of affairs, he said: ''There is
already wide feeling that England can
only save herself, and prevent starvation
or emigration among her working people,
by following the example Of this country
and adopting a protective tariff policy.
Indeed, think she will be compelled to
do So"
An explanation from Senator Edmunds
showing how protective tariff would
be Of benefit to England at present would
be extremely interesting. The whole
world is now England's market, and ac-
cording 10 Senator Edmunds, she is more
than able 10 supply the demand upon her
factories. A protective tariff would
limit her market, because, with tariff
of that kind, she could not manufacture
as cheaply as she does now. This cOun-
try, for instance, would no doubt secure a
part OF the trade she now enjoys almost
exclusively. She has no need Of tariff
TO protect her own manufacturing inter
ests in her home market because they are
safe from any competition. A protective
tariff, therefore, would simply limit the
demand for her products, and her work.
