New York Letter.
You may search the world over and
you won't find as many different types
of beauty as you see right here on the
streets of New York." said the cham
pion liar of the Union club few even
ings since, as he removed his chair from
the window where he had been watch
ing the passers by. He was at once
stripped of his medals and reiegated to
the seclusion of the reading room, and
the committee on credentials were noti-
fed. He had told the truth. If he had
been given time he would have con-
tinued with the statement that this is
the particular season of the year when
the beauty and grace of women is most
conspicuous, and can be seen in the
greatest variety. Surely no woman
who has presentable toilet can
withstand the temptation to eX-
hibit it on the street these

Do 1 love you? Do love you?
Ask the heavens that bend above you,
To find language and to prove you
If they love the living sun.
Ask the burning, binding meadows
If they love the falling shadows
If they hold the happy shadows
When the fervid day is done.
Ask the bluebells and the daisies,
Lost among the hot field mazes,
Lifting up their thirsty faces,
If they love the summer rains.
Ask the linnets and the plovers,
In the nest life made for lovers
Ask the bees and ask the clovers-

Do I, darling, do 1 love yous
What, pray, can that behoove you,
How in Loves name can move you,

A PROMINENT feature OF the late presi-
Dental contest was the constant repeti-
ton OF the terms "war tariff and "war
taxes" coupled with the declaration
that the American people were still pay
ing "war rates" and it was high time
the same were reduced to figure more
BETTING a period of peace. Although
these phrases were not destitute OF a
certain element OF truth, their persistent
reiteration, without explanation or quail
fcation, was calculated to produce a
considerable degree OF misapprehension
as to the real facts OF the case, and to
encourage the idea that the people OF the
United States were still laboring under
substantially the same burdens of direct
and indirect taxation as at the close OF
the great civil war in 1865. The follow
ing outline OF the changes which have
been actually made in the duties on i'm
ports since the date just named is COM
piled from an Eastern paper received by
the last foreign mail The article from
which it was taken is too lengthy to be
reproduced in the ADVERTISER entire,
but the figures may be depended upon
as correct.
Three important revisions of the tariff
have taken place since 1ST0-viz., by the
acts of July II, 1870, of June 6, 1872, and of
March 3, 1888. Minor changes in rates
have been made from time to time by
other acts
BY the provisions of the act of July Il,
1870, 17S dutiable articles were placed on
the free list. These included many crude
materials in use by our manufacturers the
produce of foreign countries, which did not
come in competition with American pro-
ducts. The rates of duty were reduced
upon fifty articles.
BY the act of June 6, 1872, 213 items were
added TO the free list, and duties were spe-
cltically reduced on forty-nine articles in
addition to those upon which a uniform
reduction of ten per cent. was made
BY the,act of March 3, 1888, seventy-two
additional articles were placed upon the
free list, while the rates were reduced on
427 paragraphs, embracing every schedule
and almost every article upon the dutiable
list
The following tabulated statement OF
the reductions made by the last named
Act-that OF March 8, 1SS3-will per-
haps put the matter in a clearer light.

Nh. EDITOR: The construction placed
upon my language, in your editorial OF
yesterday morning, was quite correct.
NV ideas on the subject referred to are
substantially as you represent. scarce
Iy see how any one reading my former
letters could mistake my meaning. 1t is
a matter OF very little consequence, per-
haps, but no one likes to be misunder-
stood. What 1 said in favor of reli-
gious element in our public school sys-
tenn was intended to be of hypothetical
nature, statement of what would DO
desirable under certain specified con-
ditions. These conditions, however,
do not exist. My endorsement OF
religious teaching in the public
schools, so far as my language can
be held to imply TIE same, was condi-
toned upon the possibility of some
agreement among the various religious
bodies, which should embrace the gen.
eral and fundamental doctrines held by
all OF them in common, and ignore, by
general consent, all strictly denomina-
tional or sectarian tenets. This sugges-
ton, when made, was repudiated from
high and representative sources, with q
promptness and positiveness which
showed its utter impracticability. The
occurrence of this little misunderstood
ing as to my meaning having led me to
trouble you once more, will take the
liberty OF referring briefly to my contro-
yersy, If such it may be called, with the
Bishop OF Olba. In view OF the state
ments he had made, and the line OF
argument he had been pleased to follow,
felt justified in asking him certain
questions. They seemed to me to be
pertinent, and fairly invited by what the
Bishop had himself written. He appears
to think otherwise. At any rate he re-
fuses courteously, but positively, to an
swer my questions or any one of them,
and refers me instead to a certain official
deliverance OF the Pope which he says
contains the authoritative Catholic doc
trine upon the matters involved in my
The statement he refers
to appears to be, as | understand to be

ments, in Latin Now, / have, or had |
once, slight smattering OF Latin, but |
what little classical knowledge formerly |
possessed has become so rusty from want |
OF use that it would be simply presump

Ii the Bishop will kindly loan me, |
through the ADVERTISER office, Il good |
English translation of the document he
refers to, or will let me know, through
the same channel, where can find one,
it will afford me great pleasure to peruse
the same carefully, and perhaps offer
some observations on its contents,
should such seem to me to be called for.
Otherwise the discussion is closed, so far
1t least as concerns

EST MoDUs IN REBUs.
TUESDAY. DECEMBER Il, 1855.

THE Bulletin is true to its instincts,
and repeats on Monday the very offence
OF imputing selfish and sordid motives,
which it censured other people for doing,
only two days before. The only reply it
seems able to make to the little rub We
gave it yesterday morning is an irrele-
want, but very characteristic fling at the
supposed personality OF the editor, a re-
petition of the well-worn phrase " gov
eminent organ" and the clean cut
well, call it inaccuracy, that, ii depend
ent upon the ADVERTISER, the English
speaking people OF the country would
have to whistle for means of giving
vent to the dissatisfaction constantly ef-
fervescing in the mind" The ADvRR
TrsER denies no one the privilege Of ex-
pressing his views in its columns,
whether those views coincide with the
ideas OF the editor or not. We do not sup
pose the Bulletin doubts that fact any
more than we do. What do they call
people who make charges which they
do not themselves believe to be true?

WHATEVER may be the opinion ex
pressed by a certain class of English
men, it is very certain that a large maj
GRITTY condemn the action of Sackville
West. Lord Randolph Churchill voices
the views OF very large section OF the
English public, and of the section which
is yearly increasing in power, viz: the
working classes. The speech, which
Lord Randolph delivered at PaddingtOn
before an immense meeting of these
classes, was, from the telegraphic re-
ports that have come to hand, an emf
nently calm and clear exposition of the
facts OF the case, and contained solid adj
vice as to the great importance OF the
maintenance OF an impeIturbable and
friendly attitude towards the United
States" That there are rabid papers in
England which delight to ridicule and
to insult the United States is perfectly
true, but on the other hand there are
equally rabid papers in the United
States which like to do the same
thing for England. Such froth the
calm thinkers of both countries deplore
and cast aside What is OF Importance
TO get at, is how the masses feel,
and it seems very evident that the
masses cherish no ill-feeling with regard
to the Sackville West incident. The
position of diplomat is peculiar, and he
cannot afford to make a mistake.
Fouche hits the idea on the head when
he says in his memoirs, 1t is worse
than a crime, it is Il blunder." That is
exactly what the British Minister at
Washington committed.
1t is satisfactory to find a man like
Lord Randolph Churchill expressing his
views on this matter as clearly and de-
ci}edly as he has done Though COM
paratively young man, as English poll
ticians 90, he has by his energy and his
sloQuence, by his decision Of character,
and by his undoubted ability made him
Jelf a position which gives his words
weight. Moreover, his knowledge of the
United States is intimate, and when

The Bulletin appears to have come
to the conclusion that the source of
most OF our social and political ills is the
prevalence OF "an insular type OF charac-
ter" Insular type" is good phrase,
and probably represents something not
altogether estimable and lovely, particu-
larly when the "insular'" characteristics
are developed in a particularly aggra-
waited form. Passing over the social as
poets OF the case, however, and looking
at the political history of the country for
some years back, we scarcely think the
''insular type" has been altogether such
bad thing after all. We have seen the
Island born and bred, and presumably
"insular," product filing great variety
OF public positions of all kinds, from the
highest to the lowest We have seen
foreigners whose long residence and in.
innate relations with the natives of the
soil might be presumed to have insular-
lied them pretty thoroughly, under SINH
lar circumstances. Finally, we have
seen other foreigners, fresh from the
influence of lands where a spirit me
tropolitan or cosmopolitan " is supposed
to prevail, and society and politics to be
run on broad-gauge principles. We have
seen these latter, sometimes imported to
order, pitchforked into the positions of
ministers, heads of bureaus and what
not, mainly because they were strangers.
were not identified with the country, or
connected with anybody in it, or as the
Bulletin might say, in any way "insu-
lar" Well, we have watched the ca
reers OF these various kinds OF people,
their official proceedings, their personal
characters and individual peculiarities as
time has made the same manifest. and
if those who had been subjected to lin
sular" influences for many years, or a
lifetime, have not compared very favor
ably in ability, in integrity, and even in
and breadth OF mind, with |
those who had enjoyed the continual adj
vantages Of Cosmopolitan" environ
ment, We are certainly very much mis-
taken. There may be those who believe
that the good OF the country would be
promoted by bouncing" the present
government, particularly Messrs. Thurs
ton and Ashford, and filling their places
with. say, the editor of the Bulletin, and
such congenially metropolitan or cos
associates as he would be
likely to gather about him. We beg, re-

The White Chapel, London, murders
are the great sensation OF the present
time in the history of crime. 1t does
seem marvellous thing that within the
space of few months no less than six
murders should be committed in Il
populous district, and the perpetrator be
able to defy detection.
The horrible thing about such crimes
is that they call forth imitators. 1t is
one of the worst features OF human ma
ture that when some terrible crime is
committed it sets CHASTITY fashion in
crime Murder is as infectious as small
pox, suicide as catching as yellow fever,
and once the poison is sown, fertile
crop springs up. This has been seen
again and again in the history of man
kind In the first or second century OF
the Christian era there was fashion for
numbering husbands in Rome, few
months ago the same fashion ran through
a German town. A couple of hundred
years ago suicide ran, as a disease,
through some OF the Flemish towns, and
it only required one crank to jump from
the Brooklyn bridge to be followed by
hall dozen others. Imitators OF the
now celebrated "Jack the Ripper" as
he has euphoniously dubbed himself,
may be looked for, not only in London
but elsewhere.
From all the evidences brought for
ward at the various inquests there can
be little doubt that the initial crimes
have been committed by religious or
moral monomaniac. Other monomani-
acs will doubtless follow suit, and thus
there will be the class who like to risk
their necks for the sake OF notoriety.
After all man in this century who
starts out 10 reform the world of sin, by
dealing death to whomeyer he may come
across, has only been born couple of
centuries too late. 1t was the regular
method of good christian men not so very
long ago, as witness the unfortunates
fried by the Inquisition, or the poor
wretches hanged, whipped and i'll used
in Great Britain, and the American col
onies by those who enjoyed the freedom
Of their own religion by preventing any
one else from enjoying theirs.
The White Chapel murders show to
what logical end all fanaticism viii come,
if allowed uncurbed sway in i'll regulated
minds. 1t is to be hoped that the perpe-
traitor or perpetrators will be found and
have full justice melted cut to them.
