WONDERFUL FRENCH ECoNoMY.

I thought saw economy up in ireland,
where poor Killarney farmer got permis-
sion from q rich landlord to use patch of
bare rock, and then carried up soil enough
on mis- back from low bog TO cover it for a
crop of potatoes ana thought saw econ
omy and Puritan thrift once up in Connecti-
ent, when Deacon Simpson came into a
Litchfeld butcher shop, and, holding out
his old hat full of something or other, asked
the butcher ''if he wouldn't please restuff
them sausage skins?"
But the thrift and economy of the Partisan
astounds me. It is no uncommon thing to
see Frenchman following man smoking
paper cigarette to get the stub. A cigar
stub is gold mine to this man, and whole
Pittsburg toby would cause him to sing the
"Marseillaise."
A Frenchman named Duval has 26 res
taurants in Paris, and feeds 10000 people
daily. The debris from his tables would
not make wagon load, but even this is
sold again, and after the poor have finished
with it, poodle would starve on it. The
lights of an animal which we throw ayay.
are as choice as sweet breads to the French
man, and the dear old lame horses are not
wasted; they are ground into sausage meat
and Hamburg steak.
THE ECONOMICAL PARIS STOVE.
The economy of French stove would
hypnotize an American. The stove is about
the size OF an ice water tank in Pullman
car. 1t is loaded with two quarts of coal.

THE RAGE PROBLEIl
Advocating the Emigration ot
 Negroes from the Sou.h.
SENATOR MoRGAN's SCHEME.
The Return of the Oolored People 10 Africa
 the Only Solution.

President Harrison's First State Dinner in Honor of His Cabinet and the Vice
 President-speaker Reed and Ex-speak- or Carlisle present-Mr. Randall's Pres
 ont Condition Very Comfortable. WASHINGTON, Jan s.--In tho Senate after the introduction of several bills and resolutions, MT. Morgan. of Ala bama, spoke at great length on the bill Of Senator Butler to provide for the emigration of negroes from the South ern States.
 He expressed himself in favor of vol untary emigration of the colored pso- pie from the South,s having reached the conclusion that there was a natural in- congruity and an irrepressible conflict between the races which nothing could cure except their final separation. Tho return of the negro race to Africa was the final and only solution of the prob lem.
 It was undeniable, he said, that the aversion between the races had greatly increased since the abolition of slav- cry, and it would increase SO long as large proportion of the population was A1rlcan. This feeling was not so in tense in tho South as In the North. It was not so strong between the negro aHo ms former masters as It was be- tween the negro and those who had never owned slaves
 He maintained that Africa was the natural home of the negro. and, quot ing the description of the Congo Basin from Henry M. Stanley, concluded that that would be the best location for the American negroes as, by their efforts civilization would be moro rapidly pro- noted in Africa than through any efforts of the whites. MT. Morgan said that Central Africa seemed destined for future conquests of civilization, and complimented the efforts of tn. k!ng of Belgium in that direction

This the Governor says is para. mount to all other duties because if ia an obligation imposed by the constitu- tlon itself and affects the sacred rights Of the people to a just and proper rep resentatlon. He sharply criticizes tho former nve Legislatures for failing to act Tn this matter.
 A reform in the electoral laws is recommended. The present laws, the GoVernor says, are good, surpassin1 In the scope and exactness of their re- qulrements the statutes of most other States, yet there are two great evils that need attention-intimidati and corruption. These flourish unchecked. bringing shame upon the State. The Australian system is being urged by many, but in no State has the system been adopted without modification. In framing system for this State, unnec- essary changes in our present laws snouid snosis,a be avoided as far as lions made which are believed to be absolutely essential to accomplish the form desired It is evident that whatever measure is finally secured at this session must be one which will !neeI the approval or the leading men of both parties. It is not a difficult task. when approached in the right spirit, to discover those features of the Austra- Han system which it is desirable should be incorporated into our laws
 Of the Australian system the Cover nor recommends the secret compart- ment system, and incidentally suggests that their construction be regulated by explicit direction contained in the law itself. That whatever system is adopted should be applied to all cleo tions-general, municipal and local. A general registration of electors should accompany the secret compartment sys- tenn of voting.
 Referring to the liquor question, the Governor says that he does not believe the people favor the adoption of the Prohibition amendment, but favor the regulation of the liquor traffic by just and equitable excise laws, rigidly en- forced.
 He concludes by referring to the Worlds Fair agitation. and remarks that he does not feel it necessary to i'm. press upon the Legislature the neces- s1ty of such legislation as will secure he Fair to New York city.

 PARIS, Jan.
