 If Bro. Do0ey would step to think before rushing into print to show that he can misuse mathematical terms he would fiud that there is some differ eHce between the amount of capital represented by q given industry and the value of its annual output. The figures he repfoduces represent the annual value of the products or services of each of the industries named. and not the money represented in those industries which k j9st as [ gave them, not according ts Peel. but according to Uncle sam who i, T heap bigger man. If Brnther D31leY viii deduct from the annual value of mana factures the cost or value of the raw material drawn from agriculture he will see that even in spite of t1rif. trusts and corners Waifh bower the price of products and add tD the price of manufactures the annual value of agricultural products will exceed that of manufacturers. Wheat corn, rye, oats. buckwheat. potatoes. c0tt tIn- wool. hides heef cattle. hogs, sheep, molasses and other products enter largely into our manufactures. and without these it would not be difficult to measure the amount represented m manufactures or the annual value Of the products of the same.

GENL. BADEAN has certainly got the worst of the bargain in the Grant affair. Now that Col. Fred Grant has given the correspondence to the public, it would perhaps be the best thing Badean could do to lie down and die. While there are very few writers that are strictly" original, it is still the easiest form of theft to detect. Style is style. whether in dress or composition, and the sooner the young aspirant learns this fact the better it will be for him and his future, for usefulness in the literary line. Lie down, Mir.

\ COMPARISON of the Mills and Ran dall tariff bills will convince any one that on the line of the Mills bin the battle will be fought, although many items will be modified when congress gets down to work. There is q well dedued line of principles between the two bills. The Randall bill proposes to take S70O09.000 off the Sl20,000000 of internal taxes. while the Mills bill takes off but s30,0J0,o0o; the latter bill, on the other hand. takes off S52 9o0 .000 from the s217, 100000 customs taxes while the Randall bill takes off barely S25. .001 600 The latter abolishes the tobacco tax in it's entirety. reduces the whisky tax from 90 cents gallon to 59 cents, and takes all taxes from spirits made from fruit or used in arts and manufactures.
 The Randall scheme in the whole proposes continued aud unnecessary taxation on the necessaries of life with cheaper tobacco. cigarettes beer and whisky. The supposition ia that this scheme will die quiet life, as il should Even the republican protec- ti0n papers are consigning ii to sa early grave by timely sdtiee t'rpaJ= can members. The Piu,burg gep4 Dispatch. in renewing Rand dl's bill suggests that statesmen should consider carefully whether they can afford to go before tine country on the platform of reducing and repeating taxes on whisky, while keeping them up oa articles of food and clothing.

For IL brightens the darkest day with cheer,
Though Fortunes face be surly.
There's a certain narrow, quiet path
OF daily thinking and living,

OF loving and forgiving.
OF patience and obedience.
Of gentle speech aud action.
OF choosing the right and leaving the wrong
With sunny satisfaction.
And il we never leave this path
For the thing tho world calls pleasure
There viii come to meet us heavenly Joy
Beyond all power TO measure.
For on this narrow quiet way,

Waiting to crown with peace divine
Our every high endeavor.

Tho glow of the sweetest beauty,
