OyR CLUBBING RATES.
Our Iniquitous TarlT,

Much has been written and said about our high, unjust and uneq- ual tariff, and the Democratic party stand pledged ts it's reform. In 1884 this was the battle cry, and through the influence thus wielded, with ether things, the Prcsiden- cy was won.
 Now that Congress is in session, with largely Democratic House, {xho stand pledge6) with Senate not averse ta tariff reform, the country has light to expect full filment of promises made.
 AS an humble Democrat and earnest party worker, we insist that the tariff be reformed. Espe- cially do we expect our own State delegation to do it's duty, and 1t can do something. in the commit tee room Col. Breckenridge beng member of the committee III which action can be taken) as well ss in the halls of Congress.
 At present, there IS little pros meet of the boon we ask being granted unless there is a great awaking very soon on the subj oct. Here it is five months since the as' sembling of this augustt0 body and nothing yet done in this important matter. The latest specials In the daily papers say Democratic mem' bors of the ways and means com mittee of the House are agan at work modifying the Morrison bllI etc. Here is negligence and apa' thy! Why not report the bill with out so much foolishncss and lei the House consider it? One might say this would kill the bill. or tiddlesticks.
 If the tariff is not reduced there will be somo tall kicking done all over these United States by Democrats and the people gen eraIly. And if the Arkansas mem bers neglect their duty, they vii be called to account therefor, an, none of them who do, should be re turned or otherwise honored at tho hands of the people. Let tue use less silver discussion stop, ant make charge on the tariff.
 It is useless to argue the ques ton of the great good that would result from just reduction of thi: unjust tariff, of how it would bene fit the poor man, in that he Is nov compelled to pay from 4o to lO' per cent. moro than he should pa, for nearly everything he uSes.- Again we say, by all means reform our iniquitous tariff.

The art of conversation is one Oi the most valuable qualifications for the teacher. Children are de. lighted with one who has the abil- fly to talk with them in a sensible and entertaining manner. ]: k admitted that tuc art of cOnvcrSa tlon can be taught IS a branch of scLool W ,.k, and by the guidance of certain genera! rp!cs the teachc: can exert an influence, by her style and example, that will be of great value to the yonng in secnr ing for them felicity of expression and ease of manner Children always listen to good narrative with delight, and tO listen well is almost as desirable as. to talk well l.. Conversation IS a mutual matter, and in real life "SmdU talk" is the basis of a large proportion of so. cial intercourse. Talks with chiI- drcn should be varied, natural , free in style. governed always hy the rules of good breeding, such as avoiding interruptions, personal 'iusinuatioMs, iudtlicate alluSions, or double meanings, cheap witt. cisnS, etc. The great secret of a successful taller consists in dis
 playing genius in bringing out the thoughts of others. Children ana lyze and philosophize with great correctness; and the teacher who talks too much or who aims to show her own superiority will soon lose her power to interest or instruct the young. It requires wisdom to talk well, and sound judgment must be exercised when to keep silence.-reacher.
