As the following clipping testi6es,
some republicans even. are being made
to see that the present monopoly tariff
must be revised. Says the Baltimore
Herald:
The demand of public opinion in
the great Northwest. especially in the
States of Minnesota, Nebraska and
Iowa, for tariff revision is becoming
so pronounced that the position OF
the representatives in Congress from
those states, mostly Republican, is
likely to exert a decisive influence in
the adjustment 81 the problem this
session. 1t is not unlikely that a
number of Republicans will vote for
a moderate and judicious tariff bill,
and it is said that the Democrats are
preparing the measure to be submitted,
with view to securing this support.
Sena tors Allison and Sabin, and Re.
presentatives Nelson, of Minnesota,
and Brown, Of Indiana, all represen-
tative men in their respective states,
and several others, have declared that
tariff revision and reform are abso-
lutely necessary.

LOCAL LEGISLATIVE MATTERS. - In
the Senate, Mr.. Cotton has obtained
leave to introduce bill to refund to
Jane E. Bunting money errOneOusly
paid into the State gEeAsaFy. !
In the House. Mr.. Graves has OBJ
tanned leave to introduce a bill to
repeal the Local Printing Law for this
county. We hope that Mr.. Graves
may get his blk through, for though
the present law may be good in its
intentions it has thus far failed in its
application, either having been entire
ly ignored or SO construed as to work
hardship upon the county printers.
Tax. payers would not suffer in con.
sequence of the passage Of the bill Of
Mr.. Graves and the Commissioners
Court would certainly be saved a
great deal Of squabbling.

An impending European war seems
10 be the burden Of the latest foreign
news. Russia is still moving large
endorsements toward the Austria
frontier and Austro-Hungary is pre-
pairing to give them a warm reception
should they encroach upon her own
or Roumania territory. HOstilities
have not yet begun and in the mean
time the nations are not unlike two
quarreling boys, each daring the other
to come over into his back yard and pro-
Tossing the willingness and ability to
give the intrude-help to get out.

The colored people are not bene-

consequently they ought to favor a
low tariff, which would, if adopted,

tariff because our people need cheaper

reduction in the taxes on whiskey and

IN MEMORIAM.

To the memory Of Mrs. MARY l.. STONE,
who departed this life on the 9th instant,
aged 81 years. Oh! God, thy will dc done.
Ss.l is the scene when cruel death destroys,
Destroys forever hopes dclusivc dream,
Nip in the buds affections purcst joys,
Turns pleasures current into sOrrow's
stream.
Wezie, art thou fallen and in thy prime!
Sweet flower, thou fell 1T 4 too carly date
Almost indeed, we think, before thy time,
The chilling blast of sickness sealed thy
fate.
In lifc's gay pleasing morn thou flourished
fair,
Lovely in form-in virtue lovelier still;
Cheerful, as the young lark that Skins the
And mild as the fawn that climbs the
hill.
UuIrIr TIC wUuuu-unseen rom whence II
came,
As unexpected as il was unknown,
Until disease began IN waste her frome,
And thought, too late alas that she was
gone.
Oh why should we mourn-her mother
was there,
To soothe her sorrow as a mother could;
To watch her dying looks with tender care!
| = To close those eyes as fond mother
should
Her father to embrace his darling child!
And drop tear on her pale lifeless cheek.
Her husband near, with looks Of horror
wild
That deep despair and grief unbounded
speak.
Yet they will mourn-her loss they will
deplore,
And shed in sorrow many a tender tear;
And TO think they will behold no more
Their beloved Wezie, which was TO her
friends so dear.
She who was once their joy, their love, thciI
care,
For whom to heaven they offered prayers
and praise
Has breathed her last. Behold We mourner.
where
Silent and cold your loved friend lays
All! draw the curtains around the bed o
death,
Tread softly, nor disturb her sweet rcposc
In Him she trusted with lively faith,
Whose love more pure than parent, hus
hand CLOVIS.
Farewell, dear shade, unconscious now o
pain,
Above the reach Of every evil placed:
Fond memory shall thy image long retain
From friendships breast it nc'cr shall b,
ctfaced.
