To A YOUNG Observation-Disclosures of the
best rules ever given by a mother to a
daughter just about to begin housekeeping
gas, "Always see every part of your house
from garnet to cellar at least once day !;
the servants get to know this, and conse-
quently they never throw things into Cor
ners, or leave untidy closets" This is es-
pecially good advice concerning the kitch-
en- make point of opening pantry draw
ers, lifting the washtub lids; take look
into the refrigerator every morning, and
see what difference it will make in the
cooks neatness. A good mistress can al
ways manage to do this while she is giving
the days orders. and in such way as not
to offend the girls feelings for some-and
the best grls-are very sensitive about be-
ing watched, or rather at having their
ability to keep tidy kitchen doubted. At
the same time the knowledge that her mis-
tress is more than likely to take look into
the refrigerator at any time will greatly in
fiuence the putting away of provisions and
keeping the waste-pan empty.-Harpcr' S

CENSUS STATISTICS OF WEALTH.-Un-
der the above caption, the Richmond State
of the Doth of October, publishes commu-
nication from Hon. j. Randolph Tucker
which occupies p columns of that paper by
an elaborate examination of the census re-
turns from 1850 to 1880 in which the increase
of wealth, population, and wages is COM
pared in the different periods, and those of
the low tariff decade contrasted with those
of the high tariff decades, and, in conclu-
sion, sums up the results of that investga-
tion as follows
''Taking full view of the census reports,
the conclusion cannot be resisted that they
prove that manufactures were promoted by
the policy of low tariff; that agriculture
was injured for the benefit of manufactures
by the protective policy. and that the labor
er was not injured, but was benefited by a
low tariff policy, under which his wages
were increased much more rapidly, and the
costs of his living much less rapidly, than
under the protective policy. The facts need
no further comment.
One thing the protective policy of quar-
ter of a century has done. To-day million
aires are abundant; and starving masses
clamor for the right to work and live. The
vast wealth of which the census speaks has
filled the palaces of the rich with luxury
and ease; but has emptied the laborer's
homes of comfort and happiness. Labor is
in discomfort and want, while capital has
plenty and pleasure. If protection protects
labor, and free trade Injuries it, why this Or
ganised phalanx of the Knights of Labor
against the oppression of capital? Why
are the rich richer than under free trade,
and the poor poorer? Protection is sham
and a delusion-a revenue tariff is accord
ing to the order of nature, and the policy of
equal rights to all.
