GEN. WILLIAM T. SHERMAN has de
yeloped into a courtly old man, though
at one time in his life his manners were
execrable. Occasionally, even now, he
gives way to his old-time explosions.
He is a born fighter and rather enjoys
a row. He is very fond of the theater
and of balls and receptions. He is the
only man in the United States who is
privileged to kiss all the pretty girls
without rebuke on their part. The
Generals osculatory conquests rival
his military achievements. Gen. Sher-
man is one of the best after-dinner
speakers in the country. His speeches
go off. like his gun, with a bang. He
always calls a spade spade, and fire.
quently calls it an internally poor
spade The Generals wife and family
are devout Catholics. When a reporter
one time asked him what was his re-
ligion, he replied: Il believe in God
the Father Almighty; that's as far as
I've got; and it's nobody's business
what my religion is, anyway"

The High Tariff Bill Passed.

The House, on Saturday last, adopted the
conference report on the tariff bill. The bill
then went to the Senate, where it was passed
on Tuesday by vote of 33 to 81. Two
Republicans, Paddock and Call, voted against
it. Before it was passed Senator Carlisle
made an able speech against it. He showed
from statistics, that while its effects would be
to decrease the revenues of the government
it would increase tariff taxation from 454 pei
cent, as under the present law, to 60 pei
cent. On tin plate alone consumers will
be compelled TO pay $S,735, 600 more than
they pay now: on iron and steel ten millions;
on wooden goods, fourteen millions; on cot
ton manufactures, two millions; on flax and
linen, five millions.
Mr.. Carlisle also punctured Mr.. Blaine's
soap-bubble of reciprocity. He condemned
the plan of confiding to the judgment or Ca
price of the President to determine whether
we shall have reciprocity or not. He said
that the reciprocity feature of the tariff bill ia
retaliation, pure and simple. He showed by
official records that our agricultural pro.
ducts have now no market in South America,
but went further and declared that there is
no market there in the future for them.
The tariff bill was signed by the President
on Wednesday, and in doing so he signed the
death-warrant of the Republican party on
its present lines. The welfare of the people
at large have been entirely ignored by it, as
it has been constructed and passed in the in
terest of monopolists as return for the vast
sums they contributed to secure the election
of Harrison. When farmers continue to feel
the pressure of hard times they will remem-
Der this and, we hope, vote accordingly.
Both houses of Congress adjourned on
Tuesday
