REPUBLICAN organs are bowling for an extra session of congress. And what for? Why, to revise the tariff and reduce the surplus We think we have faint recollection of some thrilling declarations last fall that the present tariff was the summum bonum of American blessings. Why tinker with the tariff which is such perfect engine of prosperity and high wages? As for the surplus, it seems funny that there should be any-the re- publican papers, by the most ingenious paradoxes, proved that there was none last fall. And there has'n been any in crease of prosperity since to speak of. Verify, it is strange country we live in.

THE New Haven Morning News comes to us this week in new dress. It is great improvement, geographically speaking editorially, there is no room for improvement. The News is one of the brightest, best edited and most thoroughly informed exchanges that come into our sanctum. Under its pres ent management it has taken a place in the very front rank of Connecticut jour- nalism. Long may it prosper to urge in its own inimitable way the cause of good government and tariff reform.

FINE MURAL DECORATIONS.
Crumrine, Bane & Bassett,

AS specimen OF rare good taste in selecting
and arranging wall hangings, the papering
shown at Hopper Bros. & Col display is a sig
very well preserved, not only in the contrasts
presented by the papering Itself, and through
the effects produced upon the varioui pieces of
furniture and carpets. but in the entire arrange
ment of colors producing a tout-en-semble,
which is very satisfying. In the parlor the walls
are in plain, solid color, notified green, with
very wide frieze, of rustic pattern in COLO. The
oxydized silver holdings are rich, and give a
style which, without them would be lacking.
The gilt ceiling, in circles and geometrical
figures combined, forms an excellent finish. In
the dining room the walls also are of plain
mahogany color. The frieze is not as wide as
in the parlor. but the holdings are similar; and
ceiling in curious squares with arabesques of
gold.
The bedroom is quite dissimilar the side walls
of rich vine pattern. ceiling in diamonds and
the same idea of molding. borders etc. carried
as prevails In the other rooms. A plain paper
is found in the kitchen of tile pattern; it
covers both walls and ceiling The manner in
which the whole idea of papering this Moorish
villa is conceived is original. 1t also shows
taste which reflects in the highest degree the
resources of the house and the excellent work
manship of its operatives. Wall papering is
now reduced to a science, and the consistent
study which this firm has made of the subject
proves them to be masters of the art. In their
store they show an enormous selection of all
kinds of wall paper from the cheap l0-cent roll
up to the most expensive embossed paper at
$40 niece
