PRODUCTION of familiar figures in fami-
liar language, and the startling use
of the g~rotesque, in situation and by
characters, where it might be least
expected. But most remarkable is his
habit of playing upon words, and his
almost childish delight in puns. he
repeats in several of his plays h
words land thereby hangs a. tale,
as though the pun was SO excellent
as to bear REPETITION. he does
not reserve this touch of ex-
preston in his comedies, but his
tragic characters indulge in it, in
their most tragic moments. Hamlet's
first utterance, and his second, are
in the form of puns. An
other feature is the strange and wild
mixture of tropes. In the luxuriance
of his fancy he throws together
images in rich confusion, but each In

its neighbors. Thus in the familiar
description of a hopeless love, Viola
says:-"She never told her love, but

THE CHINESE PUZZLE.
Queer Facts About the Queerest Ian
guage in the Word

Queer Facts About the 0ueerest Lam
guage in the Word
Imagine a language devoid of gram
mar or syntax; unhampered by de-
clensions, moods. lenses, or infections
of any kind; essentially monosyllabic;
in which the slightest change of pitch
in the voice completely m0difies the
sentence; subject to no rules of logic
or construction; a language petrified
into solid blocks. and represents
human thoughts as q mosaic repre-
SCENTS a picture; a language in which
every sentence is a puzzle even to the
sons of the country; a language which
once written can no longer be read,
but must be scanned-and even then
you have imagined but a few of the
characteristic peculiarities of Chinese.
1t has often been said, it is still said
today, that the Chinese speak after
the fashion of children, directly,
straight to the point, with an energy
of expression, a directness of purpose,
and o natural logic devoid of the
artificiality Of Occidental tongues. AS
an example of this child-like sim
pliclty, which we may be pardoned
for thinking peculiar, let us take the
following sentence. A Chinaman says
to us
ITO have-one-(numeric al PARTICLE
-widow-wife-he-to be-religion-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. necessary-to
use--all to have although-for-
sooth-not-to count-rich-noble-to
arrive-bottom-to paste obtain
day-product.n
We see at once that in his simple,
straightforward way he meant to
say
''There lived a Christian widow
who possessed all that she needed;
though not rich, she had enough to
live upon.p
If brevity be the soul of wit,
children of today have certainly i'm
proved upon the Chinese rendcIing,
though how they might have express
themselves fifty or sixty centuries ago,
when the Chinese language was being
invented, we have. of course, no
means of knowing. If the parents of
that time at all resembles those of to-
day, they would have allowed the
children to prattle on unheeded I'M

Has American Agriculture Range
Enough at Home ?

Has American Agriculture Range
Enough Mt Home?
The American farmer. although he
c~ultivates the most fertile soil in the
world, and ought to be the most pros
porous member of the community. is
constantly engaged in a hard struggle
to secur q comfortable support for
his family and a moderate education
for his children, and to pay his taxes
and keep out of debt. This is all he
a reasonably hope to accomplish;
in a large majority of cases he fails
even to do this, and 0 III or later is
compelled to sell or mortgage his land
and reduce his expenditures to the
lowest possible figure. He has a pa
ternal government which has deter
mined that certain classes of industry
ought to be maintained at the public
expense, and for thirty years he has
been taxed for their support; and now
after these favored industries have be-
come rich and powerful, they combine
and confederate under the names Of
trusts, syndicates and pools, and die
tate the terms upon which the people
may procure the necessaries of life
and carry on their business. Under
our system Of taxation, the farmer is
almost without the semblance of
power to protect his own interests.
The manufacturers can forsee with
almost absolute certainty what the
quantity of their product will be upon
the employment of any given number
of hands, and, therefore. they can
combine whenever they choose to.
limit production and increase prices;
sbut the farmers crop depends almost
Wentirely upon the character of the
yseason he may have, and he cannot
ldecide in advance how much he must
1plant in order to furnish a supply that
will not be in excess of the demand.
Notwithstanding these and many
other disadvantages under which the
farmer labors, and which no act of
Congress can remove, Senator Cullom
thinks protection has been more bene-
fetal to him than to any one else, and
he refers to 1.-THE great improvement
in the material welfare of the farming
and country people, during the last
thirty or forty years, to justify his
opinion. "Al this comfort and gem

reasonable to conclude that il they

Tough Treatment of a Husband.
William Murray, of Craner Hill,
was committed to Camden prison yes
terday by Justice Plum, on two COM
plants charging him with assault and
battery on his wife, Elizabeth, and
Henry Mack. At the prison Murray
said that Saturday night he returned
to his home and upon missing his
wife he started in search of her.
While walking down a by street he
came upon her and Mack together.
Murray seized aclub and began to
beat the woman with it, when Mack.
he claims, seized a fence rail and
struck him several blows across the
body and back. The woman went to
Mack's assistance and together they
used him very roughly. He got away
finally, and hurried to a magistrates
Office for a warrant. While he was
waiting for the Justice to dress, the
wife and Mack had secured the assist
ance of Constable Renner, who
aroused Justice Plum, entered a com
plant and arrested Murray before the
Justice whom the latter had consulted
had an opportunity to make out a
warrant for the arrest of his wife.

TARIFF TINKERs.-The Republicans, Of
course, will make show of passing tar
if bill this year. 1t is understood that it
will be ON the lines of the Senate Tariff bill
of the last Congress, but probably higher
on many articles-in response to the de-
mand of the favored menopolists who
bought this sort of legislation with their
Doodle in the campaign of 1888. Mean
while the farmers are getting low prices for
their wheat and corn and beef and pork,
because the Government prevents them
from exchanging fairly with producers of
clothing and other articles in foreign lands.
They see the price of what they sell going
down and the price of what they bny going
up, and they are beginning to learn very
clearly that it is the high protective tariff
which restricts the market in which they
can buy, thus compelling them both to buy
and to sell in this country and depriving
them of the rights of commerce, which
would put them on better business foot
ing with the world and would bring them
more money for what they sell and more
goods for what they spend. The Republi-
can party can do nothing for them, and will
do nothing. 1t is owned and controlled by
their enemies, who have succeeded in Sc
curing the Government and in compelling
Republican majorities in Congress to con-
tinue to tax the people to swell their pri-
vate fortunes.-Rich. State.

Protection and Agriculture.

In the February number of the North
american RevieW an able article appears
from the pen of Hon. Roger @. Mills, ON
the question of tariff reform, mainly in re-
ply to the article which appeared in the
December number of the same magazine
from the pen of Hon. James G. Blaine
The following paragraph from it cannot
fail to commend itself to the good sense Of
the farmers of the country who are the
worst swindled class of people in the world
by the operations of an oppressive high
tariff. Mr.. Mills exposes the fraud as fol.
lows
"The system falsely called protection
maintains that commerce is gambling de-
vice in which one party wins and the other
loses Therefore, if England makes any
thing in q trade with us, she is benefited
and we are injured. But the truth is both
parties are benefited. We can produce
much that she wants better and cheaper
than she can, and she can produce much
that we want cheaper and better than we
can, and the exchange is beneficial to both.
Our vast system of manufactures stands
upon the same solid and immOvable fOunda-
tion as rsogriculture. There are but few
| things In elJD6r tnaI we cannot prOQuCo
cheaper than they can be produced else
where, and that article whose cost of pro-
duction is the lowest holds the market
against all competitors Throughout our
whole history we have been exporting a
large part of our annual crops to others
who could eli, her not produce them at all
or not as cheaply as they could obtain them
by producing something else aud ex-
changing their surplus for ours. No tariff
levied upon agricultural products can help
them. 1t can only hurt them, as it does by
prohibiting the import of the things that
would come to be exchanged for them. We
have the soil and climate adapted to the
cultivation of grain and cotton, to raising
the stock which supplies the food for man.
kind. 1t yields larger return for the
labor expended than any other county,
We have more intelligent, enterprising,
and skilful farmers than are to be found in
any other country. We use labor-saving
machinery, and make our labor more
productive than the labor of any other
people. These advantages enable us to
produce greater quantity in agiven time,
and at lower cost, and hence We can hold
our own market against the world"

The raising of turkeys in Kentucky seem
to be assuming vast proper ions. 1t is au-
thoritatively stated that more than 5000,
900 are annually put in circulation by the
sale of that domestic fowl.
Might not the farmers of Virginia we'll
profit by this example? By paying proper
attention to such domestic matters, might
not families with few acres of ground
make more money than can be made on
broad wheat and corn-felds? We have
long tried tn teach our friends the impor-
tance of attending to small industries
There is not a farmer in the State who can
not realize more than all of his family ex-
penses by raising poultry, eggs, honey, etc.
The markets are never glutted with any of
these essential articles Of family use, and
prices for them always range at profitable
figures. And yet what little attention is
paid to any of these things except here and
there in small way?-Lynchburg Ad1ance
