Joshua Pierce, one of the most enter.
prising of Bristol's business men, and a
prominent manufacturer of wooden goods,
has failed. A Doylestown Democratic
orator, in a speech in this city, last Fall,
pictured Mr.. Pierce as grinding down his
men while coming his thousands, but it
seems that Mr.. Pierce knew his condition
better than the orator. The notion that
free trade papers and orators seek to fos'

DEMOCRATIC TARIFF TESTIMONY.

In the tariff debate in the U. S. Senate
on Wednesday of last week. two or three
Democratic Senators broke through the
party trammels and spoke their honest
sentiments. We commend their action
to those who have blindly and thought
lessly followed the vagaries of the free
trade faction of the Democracy.
The debate grew out of motion of
Mr.. Vest, of Missouri, to put bituminous
coal on the free list Says Washington
correspondent: "For some time past
Mr.. German, of Maryland, has evident
ly been growing Disconnected over the
extreme course OF Mr.. Vest and Mr..
Vance, who have assumed the leadership
on the Democratic side. There has
been too much denunciation of the tar
i'll as robbery and too much Free trade
argument to suit Mr.. German and one
or two others. Still they have not be-
fore gone to the length of voting against
their party, Mr. Brown aud Payne alone
enjoying that distinction. But when it
came to question that touched the
home interests OF few Democratic sem
ators they repudiated the principles of
their party. Mr.. Faulkner, of West
Virginia, first took the floor in opposi-
ton to the motion. He planted himself
on Protection ground at once by declar-
ing that owing to the cost of labor

LAMBERTVILLE. N. J.
WEDNESDAY, JAN. 8, 1889.

The Hanterdon Democrat recently
wanted the tariff off coal, ETC., so as to
cheaper it to the consumer. Senator
German, Of Maryland, who conducted the
late Democratic National crmpaign, in
his speech in the Senate last Wednesday,
said that the tariff on bituminous coal
had reduced it from SO. rs in 1860 to $3.50
10 1888. Now that the campaign is over,
Senator German can afford to speak
frankly and tell the truth. A protective
tariff has always resulted in cheapening
goods to the consumer.

urers. When asked by the Republicans
if he knew any manufacturers who had
asked for such action he confessed that
he did not
1.-THE sensation of the day, however,
was Mr.. Germans speech. Her pudiated
the Mills bill as an extreme measure, ;
which he could pot approve, and yet he
said that did not propose free coal. He
declared that he stood where the Demo.
cratic party always stood when it was
victorious, and almost in MS many words
said that it was defeated in the last cleo
ton because Of its action on the tariff,
and that the result would be the same
on the next election unless il changed
its course. re spoke of the benefits of
Protection in developing the bituminous
coal trade aud said that il had reduced
the price of a ton of coal from $6 70 in
1860 to 50. 10 1883.
MIR. German raised his voice i'm.
pressively and warned the Missouri
senator that his course, If followed out,
would keep the party in the minority
Mr.. German pictured rapidly increasing
prosperity under Protection for Mary

declared that any party that would leg
isate so as to open tho doors for bring

a good audience on both sides of the

Prettyaud Pathetic.

ALTHOUGH the belief in magicians and
genii passes with childhood, there occurs
now and then something thatrecalls it verg
viYidly. Quite as wonderful, in its war, as
any of the feats which Aladdin accom-
plished with his lamp. is a pretty and
pathetic story, published in the Daily Tels-
graph, of London:
A hospital for sick children in the east end
of London should at least one would think, be
as good building, as well fitted for its purpose,
as the stable at the west end. Yet, the work Of
which this story tells was carried on in
tumble-down old wharf warehouse, such
place as the readers of Dickens can easily
picture to themselves. 1t might have formed
part Of the business premises of the famous
Mr.. Quilp, and, for certain, none of the gay
procession thronging Hyde Park would have
suffered one of their SLEEK horses to abide in it
single night But it had to do for the sick
children simply because there was no money to
build better place. And then one day, up the
rfckety stairs, holding on by the rope that
served as a banister, came shabby, gruf old
man, asking in tone that seemed to threaten
an action for damages, il this were children's
hospital. and il they did not want a proper hos

guinea, answered these questions and received

and when this unexpected angel Of blessing

again for pen and ink, and wrote-a second

was about to go. but one story after another OF
healing and child heroism flowed from the Sec

A NOVEL SCHEME.

A New York Company Cleans Windows on
Monthly Contracts.
A company has recently been started in
New York whose sole purpose is to keep
windows clean, and persons who are observ-
ant may have noticed neatlY-uniformed
men carrying ladders and buckets which are
painted in alternate stripes of red and
white, lodging in and out of the crowds;
entering buildings and departing from them,
in a business-like way, and always seeming
to know just where to go next.
The company at present employs about a
dozen of these men, and one meets them
everywhere. They are paid a commission
on the number of windows they clean, but
in order to prevent them from sighting
their work so as to get over the ground more
readily they are subject to fines whenever
the customers of the corporation complain
that their windows are not properly cleaned.
The company solicits patronage by means
of canvassers, and charges a small amount
each month for cleaning one window once a
week. The price is increased per window,
and is said to return very considerable in
come already.

A DARK PIc,ur..

THERE is popular chart Of the religious
faiths of mankind, which had its origin in a
deeply earnest soul in Chicago. By means
of small squares of various colors, each
square representing 10000 people, the
small proportion of Christian people to the
great mass of the heathen population is
vividly represented to the eye; 391 200, 900
of nominal Christians and 1,026, ,0OO, 900 of
practical heather. There is no reason to
doubt the facts, and they are appalling. If
only true Christians had been contrasted
with all not Christians, the picture would
have been darker still; and it would have
been vet darker in the time of Christ and of
the Apostles. Then but an almost invisi-
BILE spot would have shone out from the
blackness. But, after all, is it true pic
ture2 Does it not ignore the fact that so
missionary societies with thousands of mis-
sionaries, spending S7,000,000 year, are
starring that blackness? The great dark
region should be represented with little
fires kindled all through it and rays of
light spreading everywhere. Only thus is
the fact seen as it is. Only thus are
Christ and the Gospel honored, and the
church encouraged to 60 on to greater
works and larger victories. How can we
60 on with courage il the weapons Of our
warfare have hitherto failed us; if the
gospel we preach has been unsuccessful and
the enemy is stronger than when the battle
begun? We are most inspired and en-
Unused with zeal and courage, most ready
for self-denial and work when we see clearly
the magnitude of tine work to be done, and,
at the same time, realize that we are under

The worst calamity that could befalI n
short-sighted creatures would be for God to
let us have our own way. In the voyage Of
life We should choose nothing but smooth

Us than consult my grape vines when I

branches.
When Christ directed His disciples to cross
the lake of Galilee on certain night, Heidi
not give them the control of the weather.
He knew that a storm was coming, but He
did not tell them. They found it out for
themselves before they had gone very far;
and Peter, who was an cold hand" on that
lake, had never known a rougher night or
surgier sea. The wind is right in their teeth,
and the waves hammer the bow of their
fishing smack like iron sledges. With all
their sturdy pulls at the oars, they make but
little headway. They are learning some

A Hnwk That Took Charge Of an Orphan
Kitten.
Youths Companion.I
The first public exhibition of "Happy
Family" in England was given about 30
years ago, when they were shown monkey,
a cat, several rats, and three or four pigeons
in one cage. The monkey was on excellent
terms with the cat, so long as puss would
allow him to warm himself by cuddling her.
Otherwise he would show his vexation BY
slyly giving her tail nip with his teeth.
The birds perched on the cats back and
pecked at her fur, and the rats were as
friendly with their natural enemy as if she
were one of their own sort.
A lady, walking on the Isle of Wight,
observed little kitten curled up on a
messy bank, taking midday nap. AS
she stopped to stroke it, hawk swooped
down, and pouncing upon the kitten, hid it
from sight.
The lady, fearing for the life of the kit
ten, tried to rescue it, but the hawk firmly
faced her, stood at bay, and refused to
move. She hastened to a afsherman's cot
tage and told the inmates of the impending
tragedy.
TITS always SO" said they, laughing,
''that hawk always comes down if any one
goes near the kitten. He has taken to it,
and stays near at hand to watch whenever
it goes to sleep"
The lady, greatly interested made further
inquiries, and learned that the kittens
mother died. after which the nursllng was
missed for several days. One day the hawk
was seen about the cottage picking up
scraps of meat and carrying them to the
roof of the cottage.
The fisherman climbed up and found the
lost kitten nestled in hole in the thatch,
and thriving under the care of its strange
foster-father. 1t was brought down and re-
stored 10 the cottage. But the hawk would
not resign his charge, and was always at
hand to rescue the kitten from the caresses
of strangers.
