it is painful sight to look upon the crowd con-

1t is the fashion in these times to talk about
womens having gift for nursing or cooking or
consolng or doing any Of the things that all
women. in my opinion, were born to do. These
and many other good, everyday characteristics
are dignifed into "gifts' most unressonaby That
there are women who cannot tend the sick, comfort
their stricken ones dress salad or put child
to sleep is an undoubted fact-just as there are
people unfortunate enough to be color blind
but I hold that these sisteren are lacking in
what they ought to be. and that the normal
woman is no more gifted In having these
characteristics than in having hands and
feet But this feeble protest will not
alter the condition of things, and We
continue to hear about accomplished cooks"
and gifted nurses 1t is because of these
things that make a boast of having special
gift for travelling. Hsif the women l know ask

MoRRlsoN,s rARlEE ELL.

The President is reported to be very anx-
ious that the House should pass Morrison's
tariff bill, so anxious, indeed, that he has, it
is said, abandoned his resolution not to at
tempt to influence legislation except by mes
sages, and is going to throw the power of
the presidential Office in favor of the bill.
Mr.. Hewitt is giving out that the President
will look upon all the Democrats who vote
for the bill as his friends, which is under
stood to mean that their wishes in regard to
the post Offices will have great weight with
him. while the Democrats who opposes the.
bill will be regarded as an enemy, whose
views on post offices will be entitled to no
consideration 1t would not be strange if by
these tactics the President should be able to
secure majority for the measure. The
Democrats are awfully hungry, and good.
square meal presents temptation too strong
for the most of them to resist
But they will have beautiful time of it
when next fall they take the stump to show
cause why the Democracy should not be
turned out. How the tariff reformers will
sweat when they undertake to explain why
it was that they insisted that Maine and
Massachusetts fishermen should be denied
all protection whatever, while the present
high tariff on iron was retained for the bene-
fit of Mr.. Randall's Pennsylvania constitu-
ents. And what sorry mess they will make
of it when they try to conceal the incon-
sistency of wrecking great industry, like
the wool industry, and at the same time
coddling little industry which affects only
few Louisiana planters. A general reduc-
ton of the tariff might admit of some de-
fence, but this bill is not that. 1t is simply
a reckless assault on certain industries, the
selections being made apparently for no
better reason than that fewer Democratic
States are interested in them than in those
which are spared. Morrison two years ago
attempted to reduce the tariff horizontally
and failed. Now he is attempting a sort OF
political reduction. As the post offices can
be brought to bear on this kind of tariff
reform, very likely it may succeed as far as
the House is concerned.

DRACHENFELS.


We crossed the river to Drachenfels, over
whose lofty towers and steep crags is cast
the glamour of ancient story. We do not
wonder it has been the scene of tragedies
and momentous adventures, for it is q natu-
raj castle of defense, around whose base the
Rhine itself makes moat, which no con-
trivance of man could drain. From this
watch-tower the sentinels could give alarm
of approaching danger on the river or sur
rounding hills. Like many other historic
ruins, it is degraded into place of restau-
ration, which generally consists of various
drinks of jaw-cracking names, and bitter,
burning fiavors. One might enjoy in such
place few moments quiet to muse on the
past, but their reveries would be distracted
by the jabbering and jangling of coarse Ger
mans, who infest these places like the mos
quitoes.
