elers from the fact that, owing TO the i'm
mense size, persons take it for granted that
it is an entire grove. So large in fact is The
tres that its dimensions sound almost In
credible. II Is 81 feet in circumference, and
at | 2 O'Clock in the day il casts a shadow
ia feet in diameter. Its huge limbs stretch
over in every direction and droop to
the ground as if to shield mother
earth from old Soils rays. Depending from
il branches are hammOcks, swings and fly
ing jenny, and on one side there is croouet
the tree, among the branches, there are
number Of perches, where a person may
read or take nap with never a fear of
falling out. So dense is the shade afforded
by its beautiful foliage that it is rarely ever
penetrated by a ray OF sunshine. A COM
pany of soldiers could maneuver beneath it,
and it is an ideal spot for picnics. 1t is
proposed TO build a dancing platform in
one corner. According to tradition this
remarkable tree was planted by Col.
Franklin over the grave Of his twin chill
dren, which would make it ITO years old.
Far up its trunk and out on its limbs in
Vulnerable initials and dates are cut. 1t is
related that on one occasion a gentleman,
more enterprising than his predecessors,
climbed so high that he could not return
and rope had to be thrown him to effect
his rescue. Mr.. and Mrs Van Wrinkle are
very proud and justly 50, of this magnifi-
cent oecimen of natures achievements and
always greet visitors most Hospitality. A
visit to the Franklin beech is well worth
the ride.

Tant Surplus

From the Chicago News.
During the last presidential campaign
one OF the most serious arguments in
favor OF n revision of the war tariff" was
the menace which the resulting accumu-
lation OF idle money in the treasury offered
To the commercial and industrial interests
of the country. Republican organs urged
in reply that this surplus should be used
for the reduction of the national debt.
They pointed TO the honesty and economy
of previous administrations which had
shown millions OF dollars decrease Of the
debt month after month, and advanced
this record as reason against reduction OF
the war tariff on the one hand and for the
election of Mr.. Harrison on the other.
The public debt statement for some
months past--under the administration
secured by thus and similar arguments
shows an increase instead of a reduction.
For the last month il shows an increase of
over S6,0O0.000.
But we are gravely told. in explana-
ton, that the debt statement. as it Is
made and rs it appears from the books
keeping Of the treasury, is based on an
artificial SYSTEMS misleading and falls-
cious. The amount of cash on
hand is sometimes more and sometimes
less. In case of large payments IL is
rapidly reduced. as II was last month by
the amount withdrawn for pensions"
Well. the same system of book keeping
il in vogue now as during the last ad-
ministration. Here are the figures for
July and August:

The Duty on Wool.

BosroN, Sept 1S.-The wool manufactur-
ers of New England held a meeting here yes
terday and adopted resolutions which will be
submitted to the national association in New
York, Oct. 2, and which declare that a re-
vision of the tariff on wool is necessary. No
demand is made for lower duties on WOOL
but it is claimed that the tariff on manufac-
lures OF wool is not high enough to COM
pensate the manufacturers for the duty they
pay on the raw material, and it is in this
direction that revision is demanded, so
that the duty on wooden man ufactures shall
be compensatory for the duty on raw mate
rial and enable the manufacturers to hold
the American market against foreign compe-
fitinn

organization Of movement to secure from
the political party of their afii iation fair
share Of its responsibilities, opportunities
and honors. William II. Dupree. of Boston,
presided and he aud Rev. j. A Bracket, Of
Cambridge, addressed the msetiug. Rssolu-
tious were adopted declaring that they ask
for no favors withheld from other citizens,
or to which they are not entitled but they
say:
I'VE do ask for that civil and political
homogeneity which invades no mans pri-
vate social rights, but which does lie at the
foundation of national unity We contend
for the association AMI the contact with
our white brethren which elevate and do not
degrade either them or us. The promoters
OF Ifs and private interests at our ex-
pense, whether they be white or black men,
are our enemies.
Politics No Remedy.
1--WE do not believe our grievances can be-
cured by politics, and while we urge the ex
srciss OF the right OF suffrage and all other
rights, courageous.y, firmly and discreetly,
we counsel against entering politics
for a livelihood, in lieu OF entering other
fields of industry We emphasize the i'm
portance of acquiring homes, landed and
personal property. and urge the necessity of
education Wealth and equipment-mental,
moral and industrial-are the key TO the sit
| uation.
A Protest Against Outrages.
ave condemn the brutal outrages COM
mittted upon our people at the south. and
we warn our country men that If the vio-
lence done to women and children, the burn
ing of schools and churches, the destructi on
of houses and the murder Of dsfenceless an d
helpless men are not prevented by the strong
arm of the law, the patience. Icing suffering
and forbearance characteristic of our people
will be goaded into hate and a striking out
in self-delense We pray to be permitted to
live within the law, but IL we are driven to
| live otherwise, the blame will not be ours"
