THE DEMOCRATS of the North are waking
up to the fact, we'll known by the old and
wise fathers Of their party, that protective
tariff is not only delusion and snare, but
is the legitimate and natural cause of most
OF this country's woes. At one of their con.
gressonal conventions in Connecticut, the
other day, they adopted thu following reso-
luton:
THAT taxes should not be imposed upon
the people for any other purpose than the
support of the government, and that the in
terests of labor and capital alike, in the
State of Connecticut, demand it."
Now that the North, having tiled and

a DISPATCH from Richmond says:

"a number of prominent colored citizens
gave banquet tonight at Harris Hall to
district assembly No. 10, of New York
There were 100 people present, and the adj
dress of welcome was made by J. II. Wilson,
q well.known colored man of Norfolk.
There were about thirty colored persons
present, among them several ministers of
this city"
No mention is made Of the presence of
any of the white knights of Richmond, or
of any other city in the South. People in
the South, whether they be members of the
knights of labor or not, don't object to the
social equality of the races in the North
provided the white people of that section
favor il; indeed, in such case they think
the colored people have tho worst of the
bargain, but they do object, and strenuous
ly, to having such equality forced upon
them and their families.

Mr.. MCGUIRE, the knight of labor who
carried the colored knight to the theatre
with him, and who carried his delegation to
colored boarding houses in Richmond, has
been elected a membsr of the executive
board of his order. This looks very much
as if the majority of his order endorse his
social equality notions. Well, there's no &C.
counting for taste.

Mr.. HEWITT, the democratic candidate
for Mayor of New York, in recent speech,
in reference to the tariff, said
but the President, clothed with power
by the people who had wiled reform, should
have used it for the purpose of carrying into
effect the declared policy of his administra
tion."
But the President says it is his province
to execute the Laws; the province of Con.
gress to make them. But he vetoed the
surplus resolution and wrote the silver let.

the democratic Congressman from New
York voted against the consideration of the

was affected towards that BILL So far as

for its defeat

so-called champions of labor who ackuowl-

THE TOWN Of Bellfontsne was recently
taken possession Of by mob Of imported
republican strikers, who, as stated in the
accounts, after their meeting broke up,
spread out and flew through the town like
demons. No person was safe Filled with
bad whiskey, the ruffians fred their revol.
vers in the air, and threw stones and pieces of
iron in every direction A wild, terrific
riot was in progress. People flew to their
homes in terror only to hear powders
crashing through their windows and whis-
key besotted wrctcnes camoring at the
doors for admittance. Women we're insult
ed and roughly handled, dwellings forcibly
entered. and busiaess houses and places OF
public resort piilaged and broken up"
Twenty odd people were wounded, one so
badly that his skull was fractured and his
life despaired Of And yet all this was done

would have made it point the moral of

FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER IS.

The RICHMOND Dispatch says the GA
zETTE is inconsistent in advising the people
of this city to buy from their own merchants,
and at the same time supporting low tariff.
The GAZETTE believes in the old and true
democratic doctrine of allowing people to
buy in the cheapest and sell in the dearest
markets 10 other words, to buy and sell
where they please. If they think it right to
help the merchants in their own cities, or
that by helping these merchants they pro-
mote the general welfare OF their cities, and
thereby their own, they should have the
right to do 90. But they should no more be
compelled by law to pay the double price
they are compelled by the protective tariff to
pay for most everything they buy than they
should be to purchase what they want at
home. There is vast difference between
being forced to do thing, and doing it of
ones own voltion. Many people who
wouldn't otherwise think Of drinking liquor,
do drink it in States where the law prohib-
lis them from doing so--it is human nature
The Dispatch has gone wrong on almost
everything since it joined the regulators.

CiOthes-Pln SOcia bleS.

Watertown IN. W Times: Many
different kinds of sociables have been
invented by well-meaning people inter-
ested in raising money for benevolent
institutions, churches, etc. The latest
thing il this line is the clothes. pin So
ciable, which is advertised in an ex-
change. The manner of serving the
clothes pins-whether boiled, fried,
stewed, or on the half-shell-was not
stated. The orjginators of this new
tangled entertainment should give the
principal points to the public by means
of the press, and then, if the clothes
pin entertainment becomes popular,
some credit may rebound to them.
They should state whether, in case any
stock is left over, it can be sold the next
morning by the quart, like ice-cream.
Clothes-pin sociables ought to become
popular for one reason. at least. There
would be no danger of any one being
poisoned by clothes-pips. as the mate:
rial of which they are made is harmless
and free from authorizations. However,
the success of clothes-pin sociables is
quite questionable. 1t would be we'll
to wait for reports from the back dis.
tricts before taking many chances on
them. The present outlook is that it is
scheme to boom the clothes-pin trade.

Husband and Wife

A man has an eye for beauty in his
wife. He notices the soft wave of her
hair and fit of her gown with sort of
pleasurable pride, even after time and
trials have dimmed the glamour of first
love. The successful wife must repre-
sent to her husband all the virtues;
must be sympathetic, and at the same
time sensible. She must be bright,
entertaining. and agreeable at home
as we'll as abroad, and she must know
how to preserve silence when it is de-
sirable to hold her tongue, even though
she is ready to burst with Indignation.
If she does not possess these qualities
let her cultivate them most assiduously.
And there is no trait that is such a
powerful factor in household harmony
as assimilation-to become one in
thought and purpose, to have kindred
tastes and kindred wishes. The theory
of the atfinity'of opposites was hopeless
ly exploded long ago. The picture of
a petite blonde Desdemona clinging to
swarthy Othello is very pretty, but it

demona the tho affinity cannot exist

INSPIRATIONS TUMBLE.
What the Inspiration of the Moment VIII
Do for Young Man.


Do for a Young Man.
Let me tell you, my son, what the
''inspiration of the moment" will do for
you. 1t will thrill you to your very
soul. 1t will make your heart beat
high and your brain whirl in a very
maelstrom of eager excitement; it will
burn and throb with earnest thoughts,
noble ideas, generous impulses
nightly born of the great occasion,
of the lights, the music, the applauding
multitude, until your very being quiv-
ers with the life of the pent-up elo.
quence that is struggling to escape
And right there the 'inspiration of the
moment will leave you. Right there
the thrilling and the throbbing and the
whiting and the burning and the quiv-
ering eloquence will go on, and keep
going on but it won't come out. You
will have all the glowing colors there,
and if you knew how to lay them on
the canvas you could paint a picture
that would live in mems hearts for CEN
turtles. You have only to say about
thousand words, and if you only say
the right ones and say them in the
proper order, they will be craven as
with pen of iron upon the brain and
soul of the nation. You have only
eight notes to arrange, and the song
you sing viii linger while the sun shines
and the flowers bloom. But in all this
orderly arrangement so essential to
success the ''inspration of the moment
plays little or no part. When the Gin
SEPARATION of the moment" opens your
valves, all your pent-up eloquence
comes tumbling out, like pied news
paper form falling downstairs. The
type are all there from garnet to side
walk, but nobody, not even the printer
who set them up, can read them. The
inspiration of the moment sometimes
tells you how to say it, but only once in
a century does it tell you what to say.
And you are not liable TO lives hundred
years, you Uncomfortable, IN Brook
