The most profitable trade.
some dealers think is in things
that cost nothing, sell for a trife,
wear out or break, and make
room for more.
For instance, lamp-chimneys;
but there is a sort that almost
never breaks, except by vio-
lence. 1t takes some some
Tluck for a grocer or crockery-
merchant to sell it. One
chimney may last for years /;
he may starve before he can
sell another.
Macbeth &. Co., Pittsburgh,
make that chimney and call
it "pearl-top;" @ there's a
string Of pearl ~ like beads
on the top Of it.

call at one of the Chinese laundries. A
few words introduced them and they
were taken into side room, where the
New Years feast was spread on several
tiers OF shelves. Chinese candy, macaroni,
a plate of may rice, dishes of
Chinese nuts, sailed watermelon seeds,
and fruit. The visitors helped them

they were not Chinese, could not thor

handed their cards TO the visitors, and

REFERRING to the movement to pro-
vide assistance for those negroes who
wish to emigrate to Africa the Dover In
dex says:
The efforts of Senators Butler and
Morgan to solve a question full OF mean
ing to the American people, will meet
with opposition from a class Of men who
care but little for the negro and less for
their country, but who hope to promote
their own political interest by keeping
the race problem as bone Of contention
between the Northern and South
ern states We have no doubt
that there are many patriotic men
in the Republican party who would
gladly aid in removing all apprehension
of danger to the repose of the country
in the way proposed II found to be prac-
tical and beneficial to both races, but we
as firmly believe that many others Of
that party would prefer the subordina-
ton of the white people Of the Southern
states, TO the negroes Of their midst,
rather than to see any plan adopted that
would avert such calamity.
Those people who have intelligence
enough to understand the situation and
an interest in the welfare of both races
will be willing to consider the proposition
of Senators Morgan and Butler. Those
who are not intelligent and not interested
in the welfare OF either race will not con-
slider any proposition whatever, because
they prefer 20 have the race problem as a
bone Of political contention.

In no other country are there such dis
tances to be traversed and such freights
to be transported. Where in England,
France and Germany it involves thoHs-

magnitude may be gathered from the
fact that the United States Ex-
press Company employs over 10000
men, has a railroad mileage in this
country alone Of 25, 900 miles, uses a
capital Of $4,000, 900, and transacts bus.

wanna, and Western Express Company
and the Baltimore and Ohio Express
Company; opened new lines which cross
the continent, and extended its connec
tions to nearly every point in the West
and Southwest, and upon the Pacific
coast. II has also established a European
department, private money order sys-

ferring to the propensity % mankind TO
cxageerate and aegravate virtues into

The Gothic and the Grecian types Of
art were considered as tipping forms Of
character. The Gothic Is the man whose
character crystallizes around some one
strong peint. so that we speak of Moses
the man Of meekness; Elijah, the man Of
courage; Paul, the man Of faith, and
John, the man of love. The Gothic Is
lower than the Greek The least IN the

The plain and natural method of forming

the consent Of the people to establish a
