demned Major Barttelot's Slayer.

LONDON, November 9.-The remark

by an official copy Of the finding OF the
court martial of the Congo State. This
finding was in the French language, and
the following is the official verified trans
lation:

On every rose a jewel gloWs,
OF priceless light and luster

OF waxen paleness hung IT.
Her satin green cool leaves are seen
Soft shimmering from amongit.
The larkspur, too, more brightly blue,
For her ehare Of the plumber,
Has raised her head, in garden bed,
The leveled grass from under.
What Is this Inetamorphosis7
The sky is cleaning redly.
Where, rank on rank, massive bank
OF cloud was frowning deadly.
A spectral light through yapors white
Las trembled Down from heaven
To light the day on hedward way
For 1t is after seven.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Senator Faulkner on the Tariff.

senator FauIkneF on the arm,
Especial Telegram to the Wheeling Register. ]
WASHINGTON, August 21.- Senator
Faulkner delivered an able and COM
prehensiYe speech on the tariff to-
day. lie depicted the evil effects
of such legislation as that proposed
by the Mckinley bill upon our COM
merce with foreign nations, showing
and explaining how that legislation
would destroy our trade with other
countries. He denied the constitu-
tional right of Congress to levy taxes
for the purpose of aiding certain in
dustries and discriminating against
others, maintaining that the taxes
should be employed TO raise money
for the needful expenses of the gov
ernment. He arraigned the Repub-
lican party for its tariff and economic
policy and proceeded to demonstrate
that the Republican party is but the
obedient servant of certain rich and
protected corporations. Senator
Faulkner produced much testimony
torsustain this charge. He pointed
figures to show that the proposed in
crease of taxation is not necessary.
In q comparison of the amount of
taxation imposed for the support of
the State and Federal governments,
he showed that the average tax for
State and county purposes was S1.5I,
while that for the support of the Fed
eraI government was 81. 10 per capita
Of population, and that to this 81. 10
must be added the enormous sum
paid in bounties by the consumer to
the manufacturer, which averages al
most S14.O0 per capita. He showed
from statistics that in twelve of the
principal protected industries of the
State OF Illinois in the years between
4ooO anu 1866, 1nciuStve, the weekly
wages decreased on an average of 1S
per cent, while in twelve of the priu-
Cfpaf unprotected INDUSTRIES In the
same State, during the same period,
the weekly wages increased on an
average of q per cent. In speaking
OF the relation of the farmer to the
highly protected industries of the
country and whether his investments
have yielded him the same proper
tional profit, he showed that in 1850
the farmer owned one-half of the total
wealth of the country, as was also the
case in 1860, under purely revenue
tariff, but in 1880, after 20 years ofhigh
protection, the farmer only owned
little more than one-fourth of the
wealth of the country, and much that
he nominally owned, was covered by
mortgages, held by Eastern and
Northern capitalists. In conclusion
he said that at such times and on
such questions as these, the history
OF the past showed that Labor had al
ways been on the side of the Demo
cratic party, and it would be so now /;
that agriculture was beginning to
perceive that its interests were also
Identical with the interests of that
party, and that solong as Democracy
honored and followed the traditions
and teachings of its founders and
fathers, and stood as the great ex-
ponent and protector of the rights of
the people against injustice, dis
elimination aud class legislation, so
long would the people, when they
rightly understood its position, rally
to its support.

ungraciousness.

Ungraciousness is wholly opposed
to all our ideas of good breeding
Its possessor will never come up to
our standard of true gentleman or
gentlewoman, although, possibly,
well born and well educated. The
sensation Of insecurity and of being
on the lookout for some ill-judged
speech dissipates that safe and calm
atmosphere which surrounds the
truly refined. There is always a
nervous dread of what may come
next, and feeling of constraint is
generated. Persons who are much
in the society of the ungracious fos-
ter insensibly a guarded carefuIness
as to topics likely to call forth a
show of ungraciousness, and a eau
tious manner of feeling their way ON
a subject, SO to speak, very trying to
those having to practice it. Yet,
with every care taken, the failing will
appear, and almost always when
least expected and on occasions seem
mgiy the calling forit.-N. Y. Ledqer.
