Like Wolves and EoxeS.

-
That people exist in the State Of New
York who live like prairie dogs in
holes in tho ground would hardly be
credited BY many people Yet it is q
fact, and such y community, one hum
bred and fifty souls in number, exists
not more than eighty miles from New
York City and less than FIVE miles from
the Hudson river.
III the TaiIz mountains, in Ulster
County, there is a tribeof people gem
esally known as Pang HANGERS, who live
in a place in the mountains called Pang
Yang. These people arc a mixture of
the white, negro and Indian races, and
seldom is a pure blood of either race
found among them.
In the summer they pick berries on
the mountains and sell to fruit specu-
lators. In winter they3fv by begging
in the neighboring towns and villages.
The language spoken is a dialect Of
Holland Dutch mixed with the Indian
tongue, as spoken BY the Mohican or
Delaware tribe before the revolutions

The marriage rite is practically IN
known and entirely disregarded among
them. Such a thing as a Supreme Be
ing they have no conception OF. except.
to use the name in a proIane way. Inn
morality among these people has never
been looked upon a = crime. They
look upon stealing as a lawful bust
ness.
Their ~habitations are OF the worst
description, at tho best nothing but
huts, while the majority are mere dug
outs in the side of hill. with a blanket
hung before the opening 70 keep out
the wind aud rain. They are extreme
" filthy, and dirt could not be taken
off them in any other way than to
patiently chip IL or with a Ratchet
Their appearance is very much diff
ferent from any mixed race either in
the South or West The men are stall
wart and many Of them over six feet
in height swarthy as Malay, with
crisp black hair and piercing black
eyes. The women have much the
same general appearance.
In dress they wear the odds and
ends Of every thing In the shape Of
clothing chat they can beg. borrow or
steal. Crossing the mountains through

None Of those people can read. and
they have no idea Of what Is going on
In the great world around them.

Some people say they first sprang
from the Tory refugees who sought
shelter in the mountains from the
wrath Of the patriotic Dutch farmers
Of Kingston, who had their town
burned by the B Irish during the reyo-
lutionary war. Others claim that the
community spraug from an escaped
slave who III away from his master

GALLANT PHIL SHERIDAN.

To those who were misled by the cheery
 bulletins sent out regularly from the sick chamber the announcement of gallant Phil Sheridan's sudden death will come with a shock, but to those who suspected
 that these daily communications were distorted pictures of his" real condition the news will be no surprise. The brave heart that never quailed as his eyes looked into the flash of the enemy's guns stood out boldly for time against the repeated shocks of failure, but at last it succumbed to the conqueror of all things mortal. At Murfreesboro, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, Fishers Hill, Cedar Greek, Five Forks, Appomattox court house, and at Winches- ter where his daring ride and his wondrous bravery gave him fame that will live so long as heroism shall wake admiration in the hearts of men, the gallant Phil Sheridan was ill the fore front of the fray, defying death and hurlng defeat into the ranks of his foes. Sheridan was dash ing officer, skillful commander, know ing no fear and inspiring his men with his own furor and enthusiasm. He was a natural soldier, imbued from his infancy

with the fighting instinct; and though like all great generals, he realized that war and bloodshed was terrible thing, when he went into battle he went in to win. Napoleon and Frederick the Great, the Duke of Wellington and Richard C9ur de Lion, Grant and Sherman, and the others whose immortal names are em- blazoned on the pages of military history will live no longer in the memory of an admiring posterity than will gallant Phil Sheridan. His death will bring grief to the hearts of the old veterans who followed him in his mad charges on the field of battle, and the tears of a grateful nation which he helped so much to save will follow him as he goes to sleep forever amid the vapors of an immortal tomb.

THE knights of labor, it is said have decided to spend s16,000 in the publica- tion in European prints of an account of the true conditions of the labor supply in the Pennsylvania coal regions. It is hoped in this way to stem the tide of cheap labor from Italy, Hungary and Poland to those regions. Something ought to be done to put prohibitory tariff on this cheap imported labor, and it is pleasant to note the activity of the knights ill the matter. The sum to be expended is large but it may prove to be bread cast upon the waters.

THE Hartford Post takes exception to the claim made in these columns that the position of the democratic party in the present campaign is not that of champion or advocate of free trade. The Post thinks there is nothing in the speeches or public documents of Roger 2. Mills, John G. Carlisle Grover Cleveland, or other we'll known free trade democrats" that shows the fact the DEMOCRAT is trying so arduously to prove.' If the Post will read the message sent to congress last December by President Cleveland it will find that free trade is not ~very explicitly set forth therein. In that mes sage President Cleveland says: "It is not proposed to entirely relieve the country of this (protective) taxation. In a readjustment of our tariff the interests of American labor engaged in manufacture should be carefully con- sidered, as we'll as the preservation of our manufactures. The speeches of Congress men Mills and Carlisle and the other advo- cates of tariff reform are in harmony with the recommendations made by President Cleveland, that raw materials and the many taxed articles of importation (Which do not in any way compete with our own manufacturers, and many of which are hardly worth attention as subjects of revenue" should be admitted free of duty, and so cheapen the prices of consumption and keep the treasury resources within reasonable limits. If the Post were honest it would admit that the only thing re- sembling free trade advocated by any party in this country is free trade in whiskey and other luxuries which the republican platform would make as free as the air Vt breathe, which it is not thought the repub licans will ask to have taxed

THE tariff on pig iron in 1880, year when there was unusual prosperity in the iron and steel industries (Pennsylvania turning out 1 ,930, 311 tons of pig iron in that year, was S7 per ton. The workmen engaged in the business received $246 per ton for their labor.
