IT should certainly seem that any work
ingman with any iota of sense would see
that the tariff nonsense fed to him by
spoonfuls in republican platforms is the
thinnest of political pabulum. If the
tariff was the panacea for the troubles of
labor they would have been dispelled
long ago. The particular pet trades of
prOtectiouism are those in which the
wage workers are the worst off, and
while those who have, are getting richer
through the operations of the tariff, those
who have not are becoming poorer every
day. The strength of the workiDgman is
IN compact organization and co-opera-
ton, aud there never was tax laid which
helped workiDgman along in the strug-
gle fOr equal rights.

CHARLESTON, s. c., Sept. 1.-The stua-
hon Friday was more CHEEKY, though bad
enough, in all conscience. The heavy rain of
Thursday did considerable damage, the effect
of which is only now being perceived in the
falling walls and ceilings, which endanger life
all over the city This, however, is very
light in comparison with the danger of fever,
which threatens in consequence of the
rains and the lack of sanitary
regulations in the thiekly settled en-
eampments, the stencil from some of which is
fearful. The relief committee is doing is
best, but sadly hampered by the applca
tons of unworthy persons. Five Thousand
dollars was received from W W. Corcoran

of the adiutant general of the state and

are being made To get the people TO return 10

Certainly. sir; Tn sure he'll be happy to

about the vicar of Freshmead, one of the
| most popular men within twenty miles of
Grandchester
The clerk went to fetch Mr. Foy, and re-
turned presently with that accomplished
young man. The vicar was a student of
character. He had not spent all his days
amid the green pastures of Freshmead.
Seven years of his life had been devoted to
preaching and teaching. and doing all man
ner of good works, in one of the vilest and
most populous districts of q st London. He
had had plenty to do with scouudrelism in
his time; be knew a scoundrei when he saw
one, and his first glance at CASTOR Foy con-
WINGED him that this young favorite of for
tune was as dark villain as ever wore a
smooth face to gn'l the world
Yes, despite his polished manners, his
gentle and insinuating smile, and the oily
blan1liess of his legato tones, the vicar made
up his mind that this was the villain he
wanted Thi, was the man who had
brought his dying victim 10 the railway sta
ton and transferred the burden of his crime
To stranger.

the mans appearance. and this man, in

written TO a correspondent at Cadiz. and he
had not found anybody in Grandchester
who knew enough Spanish to write such a
