How to Manufacture Good Book for
 Hot Weather.
 CArlo Bates in the June Book Buyer.l
 The supply of any commodity answers the demand in quality no less than in quantity, and the use to which summer novels are put determines what they shall be. They are read amid the hurry and restless idleness of summer leisure, when the only demand made of an author is that he shall be entertaining. They are hurried through or dawdled through, or gone through with in jerky combination of both methods, and they are written &C., cordingly. To make 8 popular summer novel one gets an exciting plot, just now the more bizarre the better, and good supply of scenery and conventional senti- ment The plot is put in in large pieces, from which the swift reader may go 8 quick runner on uneven ground leaps from hillock to hillock.
 The sentiment is arranged between, some- what in the style of moss between the hummocks upon which the lame and the lazy pilgrims may lie down and reposs at will. What chinks remain are filled in with scenery. Not very long ago the whole was fastened up in bundle with stout cord in the way of 8 moral, but this custom has fallen into disuse; perhaps because we have come too much under the influence of the French, who have even their vices put up in pretty perfumed papers, tied with gayly col ored ribbons, so that we are ashamed to be found with packages bound with ordinary pack thread. Since the moral would inevita- bly be skipped. it is quite as well that 1t should be omitted. So much paper and ink are saved at least.

FREE TRADE IN WOOL.

The Democrats in the House yesterday showed their regard for the prosperity of this country by voting to place wool on the free list. It has been hinted lately that shrewd Democratic leaders would like to be beaten on the wool question, so that they could say that free wool was not part of the Democratic policy. But they are left" and they will find it impossible to explain the matter So as to conceal it's real meaning.
 It is well enough at this time to review 8 little the record of the Democratic party in this important matter. The Mills bill was, in conception and purpose, a free trade bill. President Cleveland, Speaker Carlisle, Sec retary Fairchild, Mir. Mills and few other leaders of the party in repeated consultations a year ago, agreed upon the essential features of the bill. President Cleveland devoted an entire annual message to the advo cacy of this one measure. And he expressly and unequivocally recommended the aboli- tion of all duties on wool. He affirmed that this would give life to the manufacturer, and if the wool-grower suffered some he would be more than compensated, the President argued, by getting cheaper clothes.
 So far as the Democrats in the House can accomplish it the wool interest has been placed where the President wanted it. What this really means was forcibly set forth by the New York Sun the other day when ii said: Wool is the key of the territory now in dispute between protection and free trade and against it the free trade brigade have
 been man@uvrinG to mass their entire force
 volunteers and conseri pts. They have yield ed up one minor point after another with
 scarcely the sign of a struggle, all with the view of combined and irresistible attack or wool. Nothing will be easier than to extin- guish the wool interest, if you have votes enough; and then with the free traders tri umphant in the house of representatives, 6 president in the White House whose eoonom- ic policy consists primarily of tariff smash ing, and national condition of the finances which will make free trade easily and thor oughly practicable within twenty years or so the protective system will be liable to come down by the run. Then statesmen like Gay of Louisiana or Vance of Connecticut, tc whose interests Mir. Mills has specially though we dare say only temporarily, sur' rendered his fundamental principle, twill find that though they have saved the roof theil foundation is gone.
 The people will not misunderstood thii performance. and they cannot be confused regarding It, There will be rejoicing 1T England over it.

fall ot Richmond to lot of rebel prisoners who had been substituted for our boys in blue; and I may safely say that they were the maddest men to whom ever tried to of- fer the gospel message.
 The State House stands in 8 noble park, conspicuous among whose ornaments is the imposing statue of Washington. The last time had stood on it's pedestal it was girt by ring of cannon that fired a national sa- lutein honor of the surrender of Lee. In the State library we found MT. Poindexter ready to answer our numerous inquiries and to show the relics Of the war. From the roof of the building we had grand view of the city and it's lovely and historic environs Everything betoksns prosperity and the sight rejoiced my heart. Somehow we can never forget those whom we have befriended in trouble. Richmond is for that reason very dear to me, and I feel toward it quite differently from what I do toward any other city North or South. And yet every citizen was stranger, and these for whom in quired were either dead or gone away. There are some elegant churches there, and everybody goes to see the famous little church within whose walls Patrick Henry exclaimed, GAS for me, give me liberty or give me deathi" The Young Mems Chris tian association have 8 remarkably fine and we'll l-planned building, and there are many other things to convince the visitor that he is in the midst of thriving and enterprising metropolis. And yet there steals over us the lassitude of southern summers day; we grow weary of sightseeing and seek the shade. The day declines and the waning twilight is exchanged for the witehsry of moonlight. Myriads of ire-hies fit through the leafy boughs overhead. The swelling harmony from military band bursts upon the ear and then dies away. Lovers stroll by us arm in arm, specimens of Virginia chivalry and beauty; and hundreds of quon- freedom and lordly independence to be per fectly satisfactory to those who were once their masters. As the night wears on the loiterers disperse to their mansions or their novels; and ere long we return to our hotel to dream till morning of clashing armies, gaunt prisoners, famishing citizens and the resounding guns and pealing bells that told of victory.

 It has been discovered in France that glass bottles in which wine is kept affect it's quality: Peligot, chemist, says that the changes which wine kept long in bottles un- dergoes, is due to the action of the ingredi- ents used in the preparation of the glass. An undue admixture of lime and magnesia which are often substituted for soda and potash, being cheaper, acts inju1iously upon the wine. In those bottles in which the wines actually improves, the proportion of lime is found not to exceed IS or 20 per cent.
 Capital punishment by electricity Is dis cussed by the English journals. Dr. W. B. Richardson, who has some fame as an expert in electrical science, asserts 'tthat the ap- pearance of death produced by a powerful electric shock may be entirely delusive," and claims that he has successfully restored ans imation in sheeps and dogs which had been to all appearance killed by electricity" The doctor asserts that it will be necessary to make post-mortem examination of crimi nals so executed to ascertain whether they are really dead. Dr. Richardson continues with this odd statement: Since I set up a lethal chamber for the painless extinction of the lives of the lower animals I have more than once met persons not strictly insane, but in morbid states of mind, who have looked on the lethal easy death as pros peot of release from life so invitingly pleas ant that if such mode of death were to be adopted as the national plan of capital mur- der they would not hesitate, in some of their worst moods, to kill that they might be killed, since the severest fate that could happen would be death brought to the painlessness of pleasure.

 It may be good thing to hurry up the in- troduetion of the photograph, for elopements of pretty type writers with their employers are becoming very frequent.

 The London Lancet publishes an interest ing suggestion relative to the fitting out of ships for the accommodation of phthisicaI patients and convalesceuts generally, with the view of giving them the medical benefit of pure sea air.
 The Hartford Courant very truthfully re- marks that the fact that Levi F. Morton years ago gave $50, ,000 to buy food for the starving Irish peasants is not of itself reason for electing him vice president of the United States; but probably it won't hurt the ticket any.
 The liquor saloons of Chicago are power with the city government. This was demon strated when aAcommittee of olergymen and citizens representing the Sunday observance l association called on Mayor Roche and peti- l tioned for the closing of the saloons on that day in accordance with the law. The mayor bristled up at once, demanded to know what | business it was of theirs and summarily drove l them out.
 The so- called Temperance and morality plank" in the Republican platform is made | by the Democratic papers to do double ser vice. To the temperance voters they repre- sent it as meaningless and therefore an affroni to them as an attempt to beguile them with | idle words. To the anti-prehibitionists they say that it is declaration in favor of prohi- bition. The latter construction is urgently pressed by the Democratic papers of Califor- nia, while the other is more common in the l eastern States.
 The condition of the slave trade is indicated | by the fact that Cardinal Lavigirie, archbish- | op of Algiers and Carthage, has felt it to be
