REPUBLICANS AND THE TARIFF.
Proposition to Reduce tho Sugar and
 Abulish tho Tobacco Tax.

Proposition to Reduce tho Sugar and
 Abulish tho Tobacco Tax.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The proposi- tion advanced by Senator Sherman that the Senate Finance Committee take up tariff question, so as to prepare the ma House shall have passed bill and sent it to the Senate, does not meet with much favor. Tho immense volume of testimony which the Senate Committee took at it's last session is still in the committees hands. and a special order will be needed for its publication.
 Two revenue propositions will be laid before the House in the near future, which, if adopted, will settle the tariff question without much more ado. The first will be presented to the House by bill reducing or abolishing entirely the duty on sugar-probably to reduce the duty to 25 per cent. ad valorem, and to pay bounty of one per cent a pound on all sugar produced in the United States. The second proposition is to abolish the tax on tobacco If these two propositions arc adopted by the House there will be little opportunity for material reductions in other quar- terS.
 Members of the Senate Finance Com mittee say that if these two proposi- tions are agreed to the revenue will be reduced more than $7o, ooo, 900, which is as much as it will stand. If this is done, Congress can do nothing more ex- cept to pass an under-valuation bill. The passage of these two measures would simplify tho work of Congress very much.

Diamonds in Demand.

Diamonds In Demand. Once wooed a maiden divinely fair, Whose faintest smile dispelled my every eAro She led me on and sore my patience tasked, Until, one eve, her heart and hand I asked She heard my plea, and in a frigid way Accepted me, but would not name the day; Elated and o'erjoyed I slyly thought: 'I'll fix the day now that my lady's caught" pledged her with a circlet, gemmed and rara, That matched the luster of her golden hair That caught from her bright eyes the starry
 gleamS, And flashed them back again in myriad
 streams The formal air she wore at once gave way To keen delight. and in a manner gay She kissed the pledge and brightly beamed on
 me, Then freely vowed the truest constancy.
  We're married now; whatevers mine Is hers, Of that I'm told whenever chance occurs. The ring gave her on that happy day Has lost its charm and other things hevo

THE Ansonia correspondent of the New York Sun had long article upon said:
 In Waterbury the mechanics in the factories patronize the game to a large extent. There is a stringent law against policy playing in this state, but it is as much of dead letter as the law which forbids man kissing his wife on Sunday.
 We would respectfully inform the Ansonia scribe that the policy kings have been driven bag and baggage out of Waterbury, the DEMOCRAT having secured the passage of an ordinance i'm . posing a severe penalty upon policy writers. The writer should also know that there is no state law against policy

A FORMER Boston tradesman, writing to the Herald of that city, asks whether Honesty is the best policy" He says he started in business some time ago with a capital ofls1 ,600, and for while pros pered. Then reverses came and his little capital was wiped away. In ad dition to that he was left 1000 in debt, :, all or which he paid, including interest at the exorbitant rate of twelve per cent, and this after superhuman struggle, depriving himself of many comforts of life. He claims that some of the paid up creditors have lately refused to trust him, and is of the opinion that if he had played the rogue, and paved about thirty-five cents on the dollar, he would be in fair circumstances, and get all the credit he wanted.
